    I ordered from this place and my order was incorrect no cornbread and the wrong cake- no chocolate cake . When I called the store, they blamed it on DoorDash and said that that was all they could do. This is a very poor place with poor customer service. Do Not patronize this establishment. when I told the gentleman I would leave a bad review he didn't care he laughed.

    New name same great food a must when im in the Smyrna area. Save a appetite plates are packed with favorable BBQ and get a lemonade!

    been on the hunt for good bbq in cobb county so i decided to give this spot a chance. i got the 2 meat 2 side combo plate. brisket & ribs along with mac and cheese and the baked beans..the sides are amazing the mac has a nice seasoned cheesy flavor and the beans has that nice smoked flavor along with brisket inside the beans. the ribs however did not taste like barbecue no barbecue flavor they are tender and seasoned just not smoked or grilled. the brisket is pretty much the same no smokey barbecue taste. service was great and the atmosphere is great as well pictures and articles tells a lot about there history

    I'm going to give a straight forward review. The ribs lack smokiness, seasoning and were tough. The sauce is good. The mac looks/tastes like it was made by a fifthgrade boy. The greens don't taste traditional. No smokey meat flavor no vinegar. They just not right. The brisket is just some cooked and chopped up beef. No flavor. It doesn't even smell like real BBQ when you walk in. The sausage and bologna is really just warmed up and given to you. No grill marks. Soggy. The cornbread seems to be jiffy and under cooked. If you know GOOD bbq, you will be disappointed. Just got to Fox Brothers

Normally, I'm driving 20-30 minutes or more trying to find decent ribs and brisket, and half the time I end up disappointed. Owens & Co. absolutely knocked it out of the park. And don't be fooled by the location. From the side, you might think you're walking into some small "wannabe" BBQ joint. Walk through the front door and that impression disappears immediately. This is a real restaurant--with great service, great atmosphere, and, most importantly, GREAT food. We showed up around 12:50 on a Saturday afternoon, and I had my favorite lunch partner with me--my wifey--which made discovering this place even better. It wasn't very crowded yet, but the smell when we walked in was hypnotic. Smoked meats, BBQ, and all those incredible sides hitting you at once. The space itself is really nice, too, with huge windows and a great view. Then, while we were eating, the crowd started building both at the attached brewery and inside the restaurant. Before long, the whole place was buzzing with energy. I can't say enough about the team at Owens & Co. I don't remember everyone's names yet, but I plan on learning them because WE WILL be back. Great BBQ, great people, a great atmosphere, and a great Saturday lunch with my wifey. What more can you ask for? If you're anywhere nearby and you love real BBQ, check these folks out. They are the real deal!!

We ordered the brisket, pulled pork, lemon pepper wings, half slab of ribs, mac and cheese, and coleslaw, and everything was flavorful and cooked just right. The brisket was tender, the ribs fell off the bone, and the lemon pepper wings were some of the best we've had. What really made the experience stand out, though, was the service. Chandler, who was working the register, went above and beyond. Not only was he friendly and welcoming when we ordered, but he also walked around the dining room checking on everyone, making sure guests were enjoying their meals, and even helped clear our table. That level of hospitality is hard to find these days and made us feel genuinely taken care of. Great food, amazing service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

    Ok, this place was something special…read more I was out playing golf and got recommended this spot by a local. From what I was told, it's the last standing restaurant from the 60s around there and family owned by a woman named Joy. I read on the menu that if the owner hugs you, you're officially family. Sure enough, Joy came over and gave me the biggest hug. In a time where places like this are disappearing, this felt truly special. She knew people by name, talked to everyone, and made the whole restaurant feel like a community. Honestly felt honored just being there. Now the food. Absolutely incredible. They have a real smoker in the kitchen and you can smell it the second you walk in. The barbecue, the sauce, the sides, and especially the chocolate cobbler were some of the best I've ever had in my life. I'll absolutely be back anytime I'm over near Smyrna. These are the kinds of gems that are getting harder and harder to find. 5/5. Absolutely incredible.

But Doordash helped me make sure I had a chance to give their Korean bbq pork (and brisket) a try.

Everything was great, but the mac and cheese was fucking phenomenal. I could've eaten a gallon of it. The Korean pork was so good it'd make you want to crash a plane into your enemies. I don't know what they put in that shit but I understand the commitment now. The manager was awesome too. Before we even ordered he let us try a few different things and every single thing he handed us was delicious. By the time I actually ordered I would've trusted this man with my finances. Absolutely no reason food this good should be coming out of a little building attached to a convenience store, but I guess that's usually how you know you're in the right place.

When I say this was an absolute waste of money and still some of the worst barbecue I've ever had, I mean it. Honestly, I probably should've known when I saw "barbecue" spelled Bar-B-Q that we might not be on the same page about what good Southern barbecue is supposed to taste like. I ordered the chicken and sliced beef brisket, and neither meat delivered. The chicken didn't even look barbecued. It looked and tasted like a plain chicken breast that had been chopped up and served dry, with none of the smoke, char, moisture, or depth I expect from barbecue. The sliced brisket was equally disappointing. It arrived dry and grey, without that juicy tenderness, rendered fat, smoky bark, or rich beef flavor that makes brisket worth ordering in the first place. And honestly, I've had frozen brisket from Costco with better flavor and texture than this. Maybe they should start grabbing that and serving it instead. A restaurant with Bar-B-Q in the name simply should not be losing a brisket battle to something I can pull out of my freezer at home. And then there was the barbecue sauce. This might have been the biggest miss for me. It was extremely watery and completely lacked the smoky flavor and richness I want from a barbecue sauce. A good sauce should complement the smoke and seasoning already developed in the meat. This one didn't add anything enjoyable to the plate. The potato salad actually wasn't too bad. I probably would've enjoyed it more alongside a barbecue sauce I actually liked. The cheddar muffins were easily the best thing I tasted and probably the only item from this meal I'd willingly order again. I also ordered mac and cheese, but I never tasted it. Considering my opinion of everything else on the plate, that was probably for the best because I may have ended up having something else to add to this review. Visually, at least, it looked more promising than the rest of the meal. For me, authentic Southern barbecue should bring smoke, seasoning, moisture, tenderness, and layers of flavor before you ever reach for the sauce. The sauce should enhance great barbecue, not be responsible for creating all of its flavor. Unfortunately, I found none of that here. If you prefer very mild barbecue without much smoke or seasoning, this may be more suited to your palate. But if you're looking for the bold, smoky, deeply seasoned barbecue I expect when eating BBQ in the South, I absolutely would not recommend this as a representation of it. This was my second time giving Jim 'N Nick's a chance. There will not be a third. Thank you Jim 'N Nick's Bar-B-Q Team Kay Lachelle

I've eaten at many L&L Hawaiian Barbecue locations throughout Hawai'i, and I'm even friends with Eddie Flores, one of the founders of L&L.

I ordered the Loco Moco, and it definitely hit the spot--rice topped with hamburger patties, plenty of brown gravy, and fried eggs. Once those runny yolks mix with the gravy and rice, that's pure local-style comfort food. The macaroni salad was creamy and exactly what you want alongside a plate lunch.
