This place is SUCH a vibe! We stopped in for the first time last night to try their Twosday…read morespecial, and it was definitely worth it. The special comes with 2 margaritas of your choice, a trio of dips, 4 tacos, and 2 dessert puddings--so you get a little bit of everything! First things first: they do NOT hold back on the tequila in those margaritas, which is definitely a plus in my book. They were flavorful, refreshing, and actually tasted like there was alcohol in them! The trio of dips tasted incredibly fresh, like they were made right then and there. The guacamole was easily my favorite because they put their own spin on it with jalapeños for a little kick. I wasn't expecting the spice, but it immediately piqued my interest and made it stand out from your typical guac. For our tacos, we went with the Tex Meets Lexington because I wanted to step outside of my usual birria order, and I'm glad I did! That being said, I already know I'm coming back to try their birria tacos next time. I also love that they offer tortilla options besides flour, which I'll definitely be keeping in mind for my next visit. And THEN came dessert. ‍ We tried both the strawberry shortcake pudding and banana pudding, and both were phenomenal. Seriously, don't skip dessert! To top everything off, Andrew's hospitality was the icing on the cake. He was super friendly, knowledgeable, and made our first visit even better. He also told us they have live music every Thursday, along with other events throughout the week, which gives us even more reason to come back. Great drinks, fresh food, amazing desserts, a fun atmosphere, and wonderful service--our first visit definitely won't be our last!

The vibe iscasual, and lively, making it a good place to grab a meal or hang out with friends. It's a counter-service restaurant and bar with generous portions. The food and drinks were solid, with plenty of options including tacos and BBQ. We shared one plate between three people and still had plenty of food, including leftovers to take home. I grabbed a pineapple frozen margarita that was refreshing on a hot humid summer day. We happened to visit on trivia night, but it was difficult to hear the questions, so we didn't end up participating. Parking can also be a challenge during peak visits. The AC was also pretty loud, but honestly, on a hot summer day, I was just glad they had it! The open garage doors were a nice touch and gave the space a relaxed, open-air feel. Overall, had a good experience, the food is my type of cuisine so unsure if I will be back, maybe for drinks and appetizers for sure.

My main dish was the brisket sandwich and honestly I don't know what kind of glued meat was on that bread but it wasn't smoked brisket. The Mac and cheese and cole slaw were great though. The service from our waitress was great, though the fellas at the hostess stand are a bit all over the place and don't exercise detailed thinking in seating. Piling people together while open seats for better experiences are available. I won't be back but if a retirement home had a field trip this could be a pit stop.

Camel City Barbecue Factory was WORTH the drive to Winston-Salem…read more If I think about wanting really good barbecue from now on, I honestly might just drive to Winston for it. Love splaying the games at the table, the staff was very kind and it was a fun chill vibe there. We did the 3-meat tray and tried the pulled pork, brisket, beans and mac & cheese, plus I ordered wings on the side. The pulled pork was succulent, juicy and flavorful. I personally like my barbecue extra saucy, so I added more sauce, and after that? Perfect. The brisket was SO good, and those beans were hitting too. The mac & cheese was decent--not necessarily the star of the plate, but listen...I ate every bit of it, so clearly I wasn't complaining. Now the WINGS?! I was skeptical about paying around $11 for six, but once they came out, I understood. Big, juicy, smoked wings with that crispy char on the outside, and they were HEAVY with the sauce. Exactly how I like them. Worth every dollar. I even ordered another half-pound of pulled pork to go. My test for whether I really liked a restaurant is simple: am I still thinking about the food the next day? I was. And I was already thinking about what I'd order when I came back. Definitely going into my barbecue rotation.

Great service, hot & fresh food!…read more I know the restaurant is called Mr Barbecue but for me the chicken is the winner. The barbecue isn't bad but it's a sweeter ketchup based style which I don't dislike I'm just not a big fan of. I can't deny that it is well seasoned and chopped perfectly. The chicken on the other hand was perfectly seasoned, fried, and still juicy-three things that can be hard to execute. I got the onion rings and okra which I didn't like-I took a chance and recognize that the pairings were a bit random but I wouldn't recommend getting those again. They lacked flavor and just didn't taste good. I did love the peach cobbler-it was the perfect ratio of crust and peaches.

The soup was as good as the last time, and I got the pint again. At $9 this is rather pricey considering there is no meat. A pint of Brunswick Stew at Honky Tonk Smokehouse is absolutely loaded with very flavorful chicken and it goes for $5.77. A pint of BS at Mr BBQ costs over $11! The Brisket Sandwich here, which costs $10.95, was excellent, and pretty well filled, and the sauce is very good as well - best gotten on the side and added as needed. The Brisket Sandwich at Honk Tonk is $7.74, but it contains only 4 oz of meat. I really enjoyed both items and for me they produced 2 meals, so I didn't consider the costs to be a major concern. Folks with larger appetites might not see it the same way.
