Vickie was our server and was prompt and efficient with taking orders, keeping our beverages full and serving us with a friendly smile and demeanor. The only small glitch was the biscuits and gravy was a bit salty and not the best tasting in my opinion. Seemed they used a different recipe from what I am familiar with. The sausage served with another breakfast was somewhat dry also. Overall good service but just ok food. We will return for another try in a few weeks

Everything came out awful. Nearly inedible. Have no idea what went wrong but something did. Worst meal out my wife and I have had - maybe ever. Atmosphere is nice but it's just not worth it. Skip it.

I agree completely with Rachel Macie H.'s review from 8/22/2026, so I'll keep this brief…read more A quick note on directions: GPS gets you close, but if you're traveling north on I-75N, take Exit 307. It's tucked behind the Sunoco station on the right at the end of the ramp. If you're coming south on I-75S, take Exit 329, turn left, go under the overpass, and the Sunoco will be on your right. For food recommendations, my current favorites are the brisket and ribs, while my wife loves the smoked wings and sausage. So far, we've tried the baked beans, potato salad, and coleslaw, and everything was delicious. The portion size for the 2-meat meal is generous enough to last for two days. The staff is also fantastic--extremely friendly, polite, and helpful if you're overwhelmed by the menu choices. We were so impressed that we made our second visit in one week tonight. If you've ever wondered what BBQ taste like in heaven, give them a try and you might hear the angels singing!!

So this is a little spot that you blink an eye your gonna miss it so definitely keep them open because this is one you shouldn't pass by as that brisket was some of the most flavorful delicious smoked meat I've ever had the rub they put on it is thick and flavorful the meat was falling apart and beyond good like I'm still thinking about it when I write this just how good it was! Their sauce was also really good like just perfect and full of flavor they have a bunch of it on the counter so definitely get some you'll be happy you did because that's just more flavor on top of some amazing Q! Their Mac&Cheese was also very good super cheesy and totally fresh made which went super well with that bbq goodness! Their baked beans were also some of the best ones I've ever had they had a thick sauce around them and were sweet but not too sweet but just perfect enough that I totally enjoyed them with every bite! Their sweet tea was also outstanding delicious flavorful and that sweet tea that you totally want on a hot humid Florida day! Their staff was beyond friendly from the start to the end where they opened the window to ask us how our food was then noticed when we were leaving and asked if they could refill our drinks beyond awesome service! This is a small little spot with some outdoor seating that's shaded pretty good so it's eat it there or in one of the many places to park around the location as there isn't much to it just awesome food! Overall this really is some of the best BBQ I've ever had and I've had BBQ all over the country and right here they are doing it beyond right we will indeed be coming back here again at some point as this honestly always just too good not to visit again so if your driving up or down I 75 it's right off the freeway and they even have a drive-thru so there is no reason not to stop to eat some in the car or on their outdoor patio area!

Our favorite order is 3 meats and 2 sides that costs maybe $18 which is an unbelievable deal. I always get some of their BBQ sauce and it's HOT. Not hot tasting, just temperature hot. Ive never had temperature warm BBQ sauce. It's nice because who wants to put cold or even room temperature BBQ sauce on warm meat. I have yet to try their chicken wings but they are next on my list. I also want to mention they have cold beers and living in Florida a cold beer is perfect. They have TVs inside so you can watch a football game while eating their delicious smoked meat while enjoying a cold beer!

Both items had battered fried haddock, the sandwich being a little bit smaller portion. Refills on soda were forthcoming without being asked for. Some patron ordered the big tray of oysters and the bartender was chucking a bunch of them for serving. This is a quaint restaurant to try.

The atmosphere is very casual and if you want an adult beverage with your meal they have an array of options. Recommend this place highly. Remember when I said we got there early, it's a good thing - by the time we were done, every table was occupied!

The hollandaise on the eggs Benedict was practically invisible. I asked if they forgot to include it, was told it's just thinner this morning - I don't think there was any on eggs at all. Then I took a bite of the hash brown casserole - not room temp - but cold - like straight from the frig cold. I mentioned to server, and she returned like 30 seconds later with a steaming plate, obviously nuked. (Probably left over from yesterday). It had a weird taste and texture and taste. Well, that coffee was great! I'm a regular here, and this visit was just way off in terms of food quality.
