    BBQ Spaghetti with potato salad and slaw.

    Stumpy's was amazing! This place may look small on the outside, but it is packed with some great BBQ and very unique dishes. I went with the BBQ spaghetti and had zero regrets. Highly recommend!

    BBQ Spaghetti

    Stopped in for dinner as we were passing through. Delicious food, excellent customer service, excellent clean place. Definitely happy we stopped!

    Loaded nachos

    Just passing through on our way back to Waco, TX...read the 5 star review and just had to stop in and try it out! This is an amazing family owned barbecue restaurant! Great customer service and the food was amazing. Generous proportions of amazing 'cue! The Loaded Mac and Cheese was creamy goodness with loads of pulled pork on top. The pulled pork sandwiches were stacked with pulled pork and the best slaw. Beans were yummy as well. Don't forget to order the nacho platter piled high with barbecue goodness topped with jalapeños. Fried pickles were a treat as well! The sauces were outstanding especially the slow burn. Don't miss this stop on your way to wherever you're headed! And don't be hesitant to go in...the decor on the inside is worth the visit too! Stumpy and Kelly his wife even came out to greet us! Thank you for a wonderful dinner...!

    -- Disappointing Experience from Start to Finish…read more Seafood Shack | 308 Bancario Rd, Marion, AR 72364 I really wanted to enjoy this place, but unfortunately our visit was one of the most frustrating dining experiences I've had in a long time. After our appetizer was served, we sat for an excessively long time waiting for our entrees with no update from our server. The gap between courses was unacceptable -- there was no acknowledgment of the delay, no apology, and no communication whatsoever from our waitress. To make matters worse, when the bill finally arrived, it was completely wrong. Our waitress had mixed up the orders and charged us incorrectly. Rather than having it resolved at the table, we were forced to leave our seats and walk up to the front counter ourselves just to get the ticket straightened out. That alone speaks volumes about the level of service (or lack thereof) being provided. Between the endless wait, the billing errors, and having to sort out someone else's mistake on our own time, this was a thoroughly unpleasant outing. For a seafood restaurant, the experience should match the food -- and neither delivered. Do NOT recommend. Save yourself the headache and dine elsewhere.

    Came across this little seafood shack while in town passing…read morethrough one night. Dinner was very good, the service was attentive and tried to make our meal enjoyable. The place is not very big inside, tables and chairs in the middle with a booth wall with chairs around the perimeter. Calamari and corn dog appetizers for starters, they were both very good. The mini corn battered dogs were exceptionally good Combo platter with fish, tenders and shrimp was where I opted, served with fries and coleslaw. The fish was very good, cooked to perfection, same for the chicken tenders and the shrimp. Had the shrimp grilled and they were very good. This is a hearty platter of food and it hit the spot for me that night. I had a cold bottled Stella with my meal and it was a great add. 4.5 Stars rounded up for the Stella in the bottle 01129

This location is a large building with lots of seating options. I had to try Central as it keeps winning awards and is consistently mentioned as the top BBQ place in the Memphis area. Some of their awards were displayed at the entrance and on the walls. Lots of history. My wife ordered the Pulled Pork Sandwich and had the slaw on the side so I could have it (she's not a slaw fan). I had the small order of ribs with 1/2 dry and 1/2 wet with sides of BBQ Beans and Mac n Cheese. I tried the pulled pork and it was tender and delicious. My ribs were pretty good with my favorite part being the wet ribs. The dry part was overcooked and really dry and chewy. This was a bit of a disappointment. The BBQ beans were flavorful but a bit mushy. The Mac n cheese also mushy a bit but tasted better than it looked. I love great BBQ so I like Central BBQ but may have caught them on a bad day. Oh, they were out of a lot of T Shirt options/size I wanted too. Darn. I wanted to buy one. I would return and try the brisket, pulled pork or poultry items next time.

There is plenty of parking in a lot across the street. We went inside and found it to be pretty busy, but we got a table for 4 quickly. The place was clean and homey-feeling and I loved the fact that they used disposable plates, utensils and napkins! It is probably way easier on the crew to clean up, and it adds to the relaxed atmosphere. I had the corn nuggets to start, yum! We finished them easily, they were so good. Then the entree of my chicken tenders, beans, and Mac and cheese came out, along with my sweet tea. The sweet tea was perfect, I drank a whole one during my meal and they gave me another to go in the souvenir Gus's cup. The food was just great, chicken was juicy and perfectly crunchy on the outside. Beans and Mac and cheese, delicious! I ate all of it even though I was stuffed. I even went so far as to order a piece of pecan pie for dessert, but unfortunately our server came back out to tell us they were out of it! Guess it wasn't meant to be (this time)! Our server was really friendly during our whole meal, chatted with us a little and made sure we had a great experience! Bottom line.... Go to Gus's!

The waiter was nice and attentive. He made sure we had what we needed and wanted. Seven is his name. The food was not world famous. The chicken was spicy and bland. No seasoning. The Mac and cheese tasted like boxed Mac and cheese with shredded cheese on top. The greens tasted like can greens not fresh. The best thing was the souvenir cup. I will not return. I gave it 2 stars because it was free parking in front of restaurant and the good service from seven.

It's been around for over 75 years (since 1948) and has great staying power. Inside is like a museum of signs, print articles, and lots of eclectic decor but it all seems to fit just right. The Rendevous shows up as a must-try place when in Memphis so, of course, we had to try it. My wife and I really enjoyed ourselves here and for what it might lack in some areas, the character and staff more than make up for it. We had a seat at a crossroads area where two in-restaurant walkways merged and there was no shortage of ongoing activity throughout our visit. We shared the perfect sized Pork Ribs and Brisket Combo with sides of beans and coleslaw. The meats are all charcoal grilled and tasted very good. They put a LOT of dry seasoning on the ribs. I liked the baked beans and mustard vinegar slaw as well. They were a nice compliment to our meats. The ribs were a bit dry but good with the added tangy BBQ sauce that is on every table. I even bought a bottle to take home. Our server was Mark F and was very seasoned and professional. He did a great job. I love these types of old school places with an "if these walls could talk" vibes. Also love their website name: HogsFly.com. Hilarious! Everyone needs to try this place at least once.
