    Good hometown BBQ place. Has all the Southern Fixins, including garlic toast, bbq beans, southern style green beans, cole slaw, mac n' cheese, corn on the cob. You have all your BBQ favorites, from ribs, beef and chicken. It is a very family oriented atmosphere with Southern decor. A lot of funny sayings on the walls. The staff are friendly and will explain what they have on the menu and give recommendations. My only qualm was the amount of sweet potato fries I was given. Expected a little more, but they were good. Come hungry. Leave satisfied.

    The food was just okay. The ribs weren't out of this world, I probably could've cooked it at home with the same result. The Mac and cheese tasted boxed which was a huge disappointment because I loveee Mac and cheese. The only thing I liked here was the onion ring appetizer. I personally think their menu is over priced for what you get. Our server was really rude. She had a attitude entire time and if we ran out of water we had to chase her down for a refill. I asked her if she could give me a plain bread for my 9 month old son and said they didn't have any plain breads only garlic. I usually love talking to people and getting to know them but she had no intentions of talking to us and just brushed us off whenever we tried getting to know her. Overall, I probably will not come here again but if you come here don't expect anything out of this world.

    Y'all know Im a Design District / Beach kind of a guy. Broward is a roadtrip for me:) However, I had a few trips earlier in 09 for work (construction project) and ended up doing a few lunch only roadtrips later in the summer! Their best dish is in their name. The ribs are MUCH better than the chicken, which was a little dry. The ribs reached that juicy. "meat off the bone" Holy Grail. The corn had plenty of sweet butter to be the pinnacle of cholesterol Southern Food heaven. I loved their Sweet BBQ sauce (brown jar). The corn bread though was meh. None of my reviews would be complete without dessert. The Key Lime pie is the best! The free Coke refills are great too. A word of caution: The drive is long down I-75 from Miami, though you can stop by halfway at a rest plaza. The real traffic caution is the CR29 exit. It's a country road, one lane each way and a 45 day / 25 night (yeah) speed and traffic enforcement is heavy. The drive and food coma is certainly Worth the Drive and 5 stars! The sunset off the Everglades on the way back are awesome as well.

    My buddy's love this place...

    Poor customer service. Sometimes the food is great, sometimes it looks like half servings with no effort into putting the food together.

    Food was amazing (I'm from the West Coast and I'm not used to southern food) but would not have had the same experience without Stacy.

    I'm real disappointed with my visit this evening. I just left there. There were three waitresses…read moreworking. I found that out when we were about to leave. Only one acknowledged me even though I stood at the counter finding out whether we had to seat ourselves or wait to be seated. One of the reasons I stood at the counter is because there weren't many people in there and i'm almost positive that we would have never been acknowledged because I was standing there and wasn't even acknowledged right away. There was one lady that finally came to take my order. After that there was the bartender, who also happened to be our waitress as well. Here I am thinking that she was the only one there, since it was pretty slow. But that wasn't the truth. My husband had to get up to pay the bill since no one came back to the table for him to pay. He found out that there were two other waitresses on the other side of the establishment that should have been working. But they weren't. They weren't helping us like they should have been. The food portions were very small and without seasoning. No one ever came to check on us during our dining experience until we had finished our meal. Our table never got cleared off until the end, because I am assuming that this waitress that did finally wait on us, who was also the bartender, was just too busy working at the bar to come back. Someone did try to help us at the end but it was too little, too late. We still left a tip though. The macaroni and cheese had very little flavor and my husband's was cold. My mashed potatoes and gravy was also cold. They need to step their game up. I'm also disappointed in those small buffalo chicken egg rolls as well. They were extremely small for the price. I've had much larger egg rolls than that for the price that we paid. For almost ten dollars, they should have been much larger. Reply to the so called owner.... What you just stated isn't true. And it's more of a reason why I will never come back! There's no reason for me to look for anything to complain about. Don't tell me that I give what I get. From the time I walked in, I stood there for a long time before anyone acknowledged me. As a business owner, you are supposed to make your clients happy. There's no reason for you to try to blame me for being unpleasant toward anyone. I'm the one paying my money to patronize your establishment. If everything was okay, then this would not have been a review that I would have left. You all need to get it together. I never had an attitude, but I was disappointed because I had to stand there and no one did acknowledge me. There was no reason for me to make this up or to lie. What's even worse is instead of you trying to apologize about what was done wrong. You instead threw the ball at me like I was the problem. You are absolutely despicable!!! The other thing you need to do is go get rid of those flies in there. It only takes a moment to get a fly strip. We should have taken our food to go. Then we wouldn't have had to deal with all the flies or the poor service. The owner left a nasty message towards me like I was the problem and this was my reply to her. I explained my experience that she got upset by it. No one should be treated this way....

    We went one time to see what everyone raved about. It was rather disappointing. It is mostly a bar…read morewith bar food. We won't be back.
