Plate made from the salad bar
Angel I.

Pleasant stop on our way out of Fernandina Beach. Had a wonderful server, flavorful food, and great views. Was $8 to add the salad bar to our entree. Loved the flavor of our pulled pork, the macaroni cheese was smoky and creamy, and the portion sizes were great. Really appreciated the variety of options on the menu and absolutely loved the beautiful marsh views out of the windows (would have dined along it if it weren't so hot). Also wish we lived closer so we could enjoy their specials on the weekdays, they sound great! Definitely recommend this spot for some casual bbq fare.

This was our first time here, and it did not disappoint. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich which was a little dry but still flavorful. The BBQ fries were the star of the show: very good seasoning on crispy fries. The mac n cheese was just ok. TIP #1: Come on Tuesday night from 4 to 8 PM for $1 beer and $1 ribs. TIP #2: Come during lunch from 11 AM to 3 PM for lunch specials such as pulled pork sandwich, 1 side and a drink for $10.95. TIP #3: save room for dessert and try the giant whoopee. All desserts are homemade in the kitchen. Shoutout to our friendly waitress Krisi. She was enthusiastic about this place and made great food suggestions. She even brought a sample of BBQ fries when I was deciding what side to get with my entree. We will be back!

We gave personal feedback and paid our bill. Not complainers just truth tellers ‍

DO NOT do it! We gave this place a try last night. This is not the "smokehouse" it looks like. After being highly disappointed with the interior of the place, we decided to give the food a try and received a terrible seasoned frozen hamburger patty and some brisket that was gray and tough. We took one bite of our food, paid our bill and went to Whataburger. I promise you will wish you went somewhere else to eat if you eat here. Guaranteed.

BBQ Grilled Cheese!!  Amazing!!

EAT HERE!!! My first trip here is with a lovely new dinner guest: My daughter!! (Age 10) She always gets (with her Mom) the kids' Mac and cheese and she loves the Charles's Golden Nuggets, which are cream corn filled breading and fried. Of course. :). She says "it's the best thing I've ever had in the world". I got the BBQ Grilled Cheese, and let me tell you, this thing is amazing!!! It's basically a gourmet cheeseburger with Munster and Gorgonzola cheese with pulled pork on it. The pulled pork could definitely stand on its own, so I'm excited to come back to try the pulled pork sandwich. The collaboration between the cheese and pork is a delightful pairing. Also, this sandwich was so big, I was only able to eat half, so I got to enjoy it cold at home later. :) I chose the steamed broccoli and fried okra for a side. The okra was normal. The steamed broccoli was flavor packed!! Loaded with pepper and (I asked the chef) steak seasoning. Holy cow, I will never eat steamed broccoli any other way. The restaurant itself is well kept. Nice bar area. Great outdoor seating sitting right on the edge of the marsh, if you're in to that. :). The most amazing thing about this place are the decorations: awards that the pit master has won. They are literally everywhere. It really shows that what you are eating is actually award winning. Thank you Captain Jack!! I will be back!!

Such a disappointment. With tough chewy brisket and salty sweet potato casserole, this place was subpar at best. A waste of time & money.

Dee Queezys..... where everything is SAUCY!!!!!!…read more I have yet to have a bad meal from this food truck but if I had to pick two favorites is the burger and wings HANDS DOWN! The owner and his wife are awesome and will make you feel like family. Their service is always outstanding. I catch them on Thursdays at sunny oaks RV park. As soon as they park is like the whole vibe of the park changes and everyone comes out to eat, share a beer and some good food. They also offer catering, so hit them up for your next event!

It's tough to bury the lede here. The wait at this truck was beyond anything I've experienced…read morebefore at a food truck. In our neighborhood for the evening, Dee Queezys was definitely out of their comfort zone and overwhelmed. The line proved to be too much for them, leading to wait times of over an hour! A couple of times I started to just ask for a refund but I didn't want to further slow them down ultimately so I just waited, and waited, and waited, along with many others. When the food finally came, I walked home in the dark as the sun had long set despite my getting in line over an hour before the sun was expected to go down. When I arrived home, thankfully, I was pleased with what I saw and with what I tasted. No longer hungry after the long wait, I only sampled the wings and fries. The drummettes were big, thick, and juicy and the honey lemon pepper flavoring lightly coated the chicken skin. The chicken was well seasoned even without the sauce. The fries were also seasoned and everything was still hot. I had a bite of the kids burger and it had a nice grilled taste to it. The bottom line here is that the food is delicious but the wait is ridiculous. They needed more than two people on the truck and they needed more inventory as they ran out of the rib special as well as the pulled pork. Hopefully they will work on their tickets times if they plan to stay in business. I would also encourage them to wear masks during the COVID-19 pandemic.
