    Took my husband here for his birthday lunch... we drove two hours. We decided on the buffet which…read morethey have all the time and it was wonderful. The only thing they don't have on the buffet is beef brisket, which is what we love, but all the food that we got the shredded pork, ribs, barbecue chicken, vegetables, bread...everything was really good. It's an odd place to have a barbecue restaurant, but it was definitely enjoyable. The service was excellent and they were very good about keeping the place clean. Being able to watch the airplanes land and takeoff was just an extra bonus.

    We came here on a Saturday for lunch after seeing a positive recommendation on social media. We had…read moreto wait about 15-20 mins for our table since the restaurant was pretty packed. There are indoor & outdoor seating options but we wanted to sit inside since it was humid. When dining outdoors you can view the planes taking off at the johnson regional airport. We both got the buffet. On the weekends, the buffet is more. We paid $25. You can add two pieces of brisket for an additional $13. Unfortunately we were not impressed with the buffet. Many of the food items including the greens were not seasoned. The mashed potatoes, steak, and fried chicken were ok. And the hush puppies and cornbread weren't bad. The corn, banana pudding, baked beans, and Mac & cheese weren't good.

    This is one of these Bar-b-q places that are known to locals and/or happily discovered by visitors…read more(like me). I was driving around town after visiting the University (which one, i can't recall) and wanted some local bar b que. I'm a yankee so NC barbeque is a bit different for me. I've tried the mustard-base and the vinegar-base and they do offer a vacation from the usual tomato-base/molasses based barbeque Stuff was fall off the bone and definitely worth the trip

    A true southern gem. My husband and I have a motto "if they serve it on styrofoam plates, it's…read moregonna be good" and once again we were not disappointed. It's a small business and most people ordered to go. Very few tables and parking. We walked in as a party of 4 and they didn't have seating, but we were waved over by a local to share his table and gladly took him up on his offer. Come to find out he was a local columnist and seems to be known very well by the community. We had great conversation, over a great meal. The owner came out and chatted with us for a little. It's been family owned since 1930! Everyone we encountered was very friendly. Including the local sheriff who was the cashier. We were greeted by a friendly server and a basket of hush puppies and a bucket of honey butter. We ordered a little of everything. True NC pork BBQ, southern style fried chicken, fried shrimp, boiled butter potatoes, colla greens, mac and cheese and cole slaw. EVERYTHING was good. The only let down was the mac and cheese. We were hoping for a baked mac and cheese but it was more of a velveeta style rou mac and cheese. Still good, just not what was pictured or what we prefer. This is a super easy stop off int. 95, maybe a mile off the exit. We will most definitely be stopping in every year as we head south. I would suggest you do the same!
