Our server, Ginger, was helpful and kind answering any of my questions. Food came out hot, fast and was absolutely delicious.

Got talked into going to this joint again by friends. Knew better. Once again, this is NOT a BBQ…read morerestaurant. They have way too many other things on the menu. I made the mistake of ordering the NC pulled pork plate which includes 6 ounces of meat and 2 hush puppies for $10. No other sides or beverage included. Added a side of slaw and iced tea and with the mandated 20% gratuity for a party of six or more my meal came to $21.68. The BBQ was dry and tasteless. Service was OK but the waitress screwed up the bills for the table. This is my second review of this place. Won't be a third.

I'm usually not a big Carolina style barbecue fan but it wasn't too vinegary and the sauce didn't bother me (I also usually prefer dry rub because of the heaviness of the sauce). The green beans were fantastic--great flavor, the mac and cheese pretty good too, on the runny side but the pasta firmness was perfect and not too mushy like this type of mac can get. Pork was cooked well -- I got the very ends but I liked it because it's more tender and juicy. Would come back if in the area.

Great spot in Craigsville. We enjoyed our first visit after driving out from Staunton to try it…read more The sides were very solid with the potato salad and baked beans being excellent. Save room for banana pudding for dessert. Having grown up in Lexington, NC and lived in Texas my barbecue IQ is above average. The ribs were tender and juicy. I would have preferred to have them served dry rubbed rather than served with sauce on them. The pulled pork was good and the sandwich came with a large portion. Unfortunately the brisket was rather dry, yet covered in sauce. It was later in the day when we visited but it seemed as if the brisket had been cut into portions prior to the order. Overall I think they do a great job with Unbridled Souls and serve the community in a great way. The menu is perhaps too extensive with pulled pork, brisket, ribs, chicken, sausage, various versions of hot dogs and burgers, plus special items such as cheesesteaks, etc. Give them a stop is you are headed through Craigsville!

Everything there has always been very clean and inviting. I worked as a waitress at the Springhouse and The Hotel Strasburg, totalling over 20 yeas, so I know what to look for.

Service was quick and friendly. I ordered 2 lbs of pulled pork and 2 small containers of their hot bbq sauce. The pork was amazing. And the hot bbq sauce is legit. They had a variety of sides but I stuck with the pork. If you are ever near this place, it is worth it to stop in. You will be very glad you did. Highly recommend!!

Pulled pork sandwich was pretty standard -- not bad and with good smoke flavor but certainly nothing special, and definitely on the SWEET side. No fountain drinks; cans from a vending machine.
