Dave&#x27;s BBQ

It's a little curmudgeonly of me, but I didn't want this place to be as good as it actually is. I…read moredo work around this area and had been curious about Yorkie's for a while; about a month ago I had the opportunity to stop in. It's kind of like Taste in that it's like a Hip And Trendy Sandwich Spot - the staff is mostly perky, cool, and very competent college students - and the prices are about on par with Taste as well, but for what you get here, it's probably double the value of what you can get there. I got their tuna melt, which stuck with me for long enough that it had me craving another sandwich like that when I was in the area again. So today I was in the area again and I brought a friend, who also got the tuna melt and loved it. The thing about that sandwich is that they probably put about a half pound of bluefin tuna salad on it, and it's not mayo or filler-heavy. It's very tuna-forward, which is a plus to me. This time I got the Kevin's Bday, which was turkey, bacon, cheese, LT with this amazing garlicky green onion aioli, because honestly I was like, "Well, the tuna melt was really good. But what about just a Normal Ass Sandwich??" Both those sandwiches come on thick toasted (I think potato?) sandwich bread and my god it was all SO delicious. Again, the portion was enough for two meals, and it was just a turkey sandwich! The turkey was super succulent too. One small detail i really appreciated was that I believe they cut their tomatoes on the slicer as well; they're incredibly thin, and they add a lot to the sandwich without overpowering it. Also their tots are unreal. Sorry for rambling. I'm very passionate about sandwiches apparently. All I'm saying is that if you're at the oceanfront and you're trying to pick a sandwich place, it should be this one.

It was definitely busy during the lunch rush, but worth the wait. The dish was so good! The lemon zest really brightened everything up and kept it from feeling too heavy despite the Caesar dressing, tots, and fried chicken. It added a depth of flavor I wasn't expecting and absolutely loved. At $18 (+ an additional $2 for a can of diet coke), it's a little pricey IMHO, but I'd order it again without hesitation because it's that good. Yorkie's is such a cute spot, the staff was friendly, and while parking can be a bit sparse around lunchtime, it's worth it. I'm already looking forward to going back and trying more of the menu!

The screen with their menu moves rather rapidly and I still don't know if I had more options to choose from. I assume there were more but I went with the specials. Corn chowder was "TASTE-Y" and came with a nice chunk of bread. The roast beef special was a great bargain (You pay more at McD's for junk food.) and the soda fountain offered an interesting variety of choices. There is a nice patio but I ate inside where the noise level was too high for my liking. I am not sure if I'd call this the "Good Life" but then again I didn't purchase any wine from their selection. Overall ... a good deli sandwich and soup plus great service that raised this to four starts!

It's the perfect combination of sweet, tangy, and open gooey deliciousness! Today, Baker's Crust catered breakfast at my office, and I was excited to see a table overflowing with bagels and cream cheeses. It was like Christmas morning for carb lovers! Unfortunately, none of the bagels or cream cheeses were labeled. My excitement quickly turned into confusion when I took a big bite of what I was sure was my beloved strawberry cream cheese... only to discover it was definitely not strawberry. And let's just say an onion bagel paired with the wrong cream cheese is a combination I wouldn't recommend. The food itself was great, but a little labeling would go a long way. A simple sticker or note on the bottom of each cream cheese container and small tent cards identifying the bagel flavors would save future customers from accidental flavor roulette. Still a fan, but next time I'd like to know whether I'm biting into strawberry bliss or an unexpected onion surprise! For a side note it's so easy to order online for a quick stop on the way to work. Perfect every time!!!

The serving portions were very plentiful and played very well on the brunch theme! Burger was cooked medium well but still very juicy with a delicious mayo based sauce.

I would truthfully give them 4 1/2 stars but I don't wanna give them four stars. I stopped by this BBQ joint after seeing a review from Mr. Chime Time Eats on TikTok--and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. I ordered the two-meat platter with ribs, brisket, spicy sausage, potato salad, and green beans. First off, the ribs were incredibly tender and juicy, falling right off the bone. Paired with the spicy barbecue sauce, they were absolute perfection--bold, smoky, and just the right kick of heat. The brisket was equally impressive--juicy and flavorful, with that melt-in-your-mouth texture that true brisket lovers crave. The spicy sausage had a satisfying, homemade texture, though it was a touch salty for my taste. Still, the flavor was rich, and the spice level was spot on. The potato salad was tangy--definitely one of those regional flavors that might be an acquired taste depending on where you're from. But for me, it worked beautifully alongside the smokiness of the meat, balancing everything out. As for the green beans--they were just green beans. Nothing fancy, but a decent side to round out the plate. All in all, this was a fantastic meal--exactly the kind of satisfying BBQ that's perfect before hitting the road. If I'm ever in the area again, I'm absolutely coming back. Highly recommend giving this place a try! read more

I've been told by several people I had to check this place out since I lived in Texas when I was younger (I'm still young). I couldn't believe how amazing the brisket was and the corn muffins were the perfect mix of sweet and savory!

The mac and cheese was creamy and rich, the collard greens had that slow-cooked depth, the cole slaw was fresh and tangy, and the green beans were seasoned VERY well. For the meats, we tried the pulled pork, burnt ends, and chopped brisket. The brisket was tender and juicy with a nice smoky flavor, and the pulled pork had a good mix of bark and softer pieces. The burnt ends were saucy and rich. All the meats were good, but they could have used just a little more seasoning to really make them shine. Portions were generous, service was friendly, and everything came out hot and fresh. If you love flavorful sides and hearty BBQ, this is a solid spot. With a touch more seasoning on the meats, it would easily be five stars. PS: My husband and I shared this platter which was supposed to be for one person.

I frequently go to their Norfolk location and this location seems a little smaller, or perhaps the layout just makes it appear that way. There wasn't a long line when I arrived and once I reached the counter I was greeted. I stopped in around 1pm on a Friday to try their smoked oxtails, which were one of their daily specials. I was glad I arrived when I did, because only a few portions remained. The oxtails were excellent, very tender and well-seasoned. I feel that $35/lb without a side or cornbread included was a little overpriced. In addition to the oxtails I also ordered their Mac and cheese, which was just ok. While the sauce's consistency has improved, I found it still lacked a bit of flavor. Overall I really enjoy Redwood Smoke shack, especially when I'm craving brisket.

The Mac bowl was tasty. I liked the macaroni, it was creamy and the sausage was juicy, spicy, and pretty good. I like the outer casing of the sausage. The BBQ sauce was a little sweet and tangy. The white sauce tasted ok, but was super watery. I wasn't a fan of the consistency of the sauce. The bananamisu is a dessert that's between a banana pudding and tiramisu.

I began with the garden salad, a straightforward but well-executed mix of fresh greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, and sweet Vidalia onions, finished with housemade croutons and a balanced balsamic vinaigrette. It's a simple dish done right, which sets the tone for what follows. The she-crab soup--an award-winning staple--delivers exactly what you hope for in a classic rendition. Rich, velvety, and deeply satisfying, it's best enjoyed in a cup unless you plan on making it the centerpiece of your meal. For the entrée, the French Dip stands out as a clear highlight.

It's a dish that leans on quality ingredients and careful execution rather than unnecessary embellishment, and it succeeds because of it. Court House Café continues to earn its reputation the right way: consistent food, thoughtful service, and an atmosphere that feels rooted in the community it serves.
