Decent BBQ joint that seems to VERY popular with the locals. For the area it is probably one of the best options. It absolutely doesn't compare to what I'm used to at my regular joints in New Orleans, Texas etc. etc. During my first visit I was considering making a return visit to sample their burger but after looking at pictures of the burger and from my experience of their BBQ I just think I'm not going to ever be motivated enough to make a return visit as to me it just doesn't ring my bell as I've been so spoiled by Gonzo's Smokehouse in Luling, LA (best in the WORLD as far as I'm concerned) Austin, TX BBQ (second places-ish with other Texas joints) and Kansas City BBQ (always fighting for the top spot)... Once you've experienced Nirvana it is hard to fall back to mere mortal morsels although if you put that BBQ meat in front of me when I'm hangry I will totally destroy it like a pack of lions or school of rabid piranhas as I'm all about a big pile of meat and my carnivore beast instincts will take over!!! read more

The food was GREAT! Ham sandwich, Chicken sandwich on a nicely buttered bun with pickles and BBQ sauce. The service was wonderful. The staff was very nice and the food came out quickly. We were just passing through town and it was well worth the stop. We hope to be back again! The ambiance was nice. Really clean. Soft music in the background. I will say it was a weird time of day .. around 4p, so it wasn't crowded. We liked it! read more

Food is always very good. I get the brisket sandwich with fries, one of my kids get the brisket nachos and my other kid gets the brisket loaded baked potato. It's all very good! The building is always clean too. read more

In town from the Fort Worth area on business. I'll preface this with knowing that I am spoiled with some of the absolute best bbq in all of Texas within a 10 to 30 minute drive from home (Justin). But I thought MS being a southern state and being in the south part of the state would provide some decent bbq options but I was wrong. Don't go there if you are used to good bbq. The place appeared clean. The outside looked like it was going to be good. They say Texas toast, but it's just regular toasted wheat bread with a little butter. I have that same natures own bread at home I make my sandwiches on. They need to take a lesson from Raising Canes. I got the ribs, they were a weird texture. Fall off the bone, yes but is there such a thing as too much like it was braised for hours, like a pot roast would be. I also tried the wings. Both the wings and the ribs were way too salty. The wings texture was not bad. They were not soggy or fatty. Too bad they were over seasoned. The fries were ok. I was not a fan but like bbq, I think fries preference is subjective. The last part and maybe least important is the staff. All I will say is, you can definitely tell they did not want to be there. read more

The food was amazing the most tender chicken wings I love the french fries as well, I have ever had all of the bones good. The brisket was a little salty, but I think if put on a baked potato, it would be OK. The service was amazing, friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was friendly and cozy. I will be going back for my birthday and my family. read more

I love Hokies Best BBQ around here. I'll ride from Wilmer and get my pork platter, baked beans and potato salad and you can't leave without the pumpkin pie with pecans. High five to all the cooks here along with the wait staff!!! read more

I had the brisket and it was delicious, my husband had the ribs and smoked chicken and he couldn't eat it all. So we had brisket and ribs as leftovers. Delicious both times. Service was incredible. read more

Great food And service Baked potatoes cooked perfectly, and cobbler And ice cream was on point read more

Words can not adequately describe the wondrous miracles of BBQ which will ONLY be found at Hokies. Definitely qualifies as a National Treasure and well worth a flight and drive from any coast (East, West or Gulf) to experience a guaranteed life-changing dining epiphany. NOTE: Do NOT leave without ordering the smoked wings, fall off the bone ribs and the upside down Sweeeeeet Potato Pie!! The service is every bit as great as the grub!! Note to Owner/Chief Visionary: Keep doing what you are doing - you have discovered some amazing mojo!! read more

Hokies Bbq & Grill - Make SURE you try the Upside Down Sweet Potato Pie!! - American Near Me - Lucedale, Mississippi

I don't understand all these negative comments. It's a bbq restaurant in rural Mississippi. What did you expect? For where it's located this is a great place to eat. Don't listen to them Jim. read more

My mother brought stopped for takeout this evening. She got me pulled pork, slaw, beans, and bread. It was all really, really good! The pork and slaw just needed a little salt, but I enjoyed them both immensely! And the beans... they had sausage and a nice oniony flavor. I really liked them! And it was more than enough for lunch tomorrow! She said that her sandwich was really good, too. She wasn't really keen on the slaw, but that's ok... I got to eat hers, too! If you're looking for some good bbq, I highly recommend this place! read more

Fantastic Food. Fantastic Atmosphere.Great Service..Best place in Lucedale Smoked Wings are fire read more

The ribs alone are worth a five star review. As a someone who follows the Keto diet, I had to get the ribs without sauce. Typically, the ribs at most place are a tad dry. Not here. They were absolutely moist, tender, and flavorful. Here's a tip though: add some variety in your sauces. There is no white or vinegar based sauce. I'd like to see that change! From a customer service standpoint, Emily is a gem and was zipping around the restaurant and just doing a fantastic job! Clean, well operated, and quick (I had my ribs in less than five minutes). 5/5. read more

Just not for me. Food was pretty basic. Had the pulled pork sandwich. It was okay. Nothing spectacular.

Great BBQ in Lucedale! The smoked wings are wonderful, as well as the smoked chicken salad and the potato salad! The building is super cute as well, and they have expanded since they are so popular! Always a good meal when we come read more

Good down home BBQ. The decor is great and the service excellent! I had the brisket and it was tender and not dry. You get good sized portions too. read more

Food is awesome. Service is fast and the customer service is outstanding!!! The ribs are one of the best menu items. read more

My husband has been wanting to try this place for a while and so today we gave it a try. I can't say it's the best- but it's not the worst. I had a pulled pork lunch basket and opted for the fries. My husband had a combo platter with baked beans, potato salad and a slice of Texas toast. Mine came in a basket (as expected I suppose) and my husbands came on a lunch tray almost type of plate. The food came pretty quickly and was hot and fresh- except the potato salad, which was served cold. Speaking of- the potato salad was more of a loaded potato bake- it was very good- but not your traditional potato salad. My husband felt the bar-b-w sauce was too vinegary. He also noted that he was surprised that there weren't a few different sauce choices being as it is a bar-b-q restaurant. The meat was smoked and very tender though. The ribs were falling apart they were so tender and the brisket was also very good. My pulled pork sandwich was very good as well. The fries were typical to what one would expect. My husband was not impressed with the baked beans- they seemed to be just your typical canned baked beans. One thing I can say- I hate being served a basket and not given a saucer or some sort or plate to go along with it. We were given our ticket shortly after we were served our food and then we really didn't see our waitress much. We ended up paying and asking a different waitress if she could help us with Togo items. To the defense or the waitress- I think we might have shown up right as the lunch rush was ending and she was probably taking a much deserved break. The place was pretty busy and pretty loud. It had kind of a cafeteria type feel to it. But- it was clean and everyone smiled and was polite during our visit. Overall- it's fine for the price. I doubt we will be going back- it's just a preference thing though. I'm sure it's perfect to some; just not really for us. read more

Omg! That was the worst food I've EVER taste in my life. The ribs were baked had no flavor even with bbq plastered all over it. It was very fatty not actual meat. Very disappointed. Theeeeee absolute so called bbq EVER. read more

Best burgers & wings in the area!!! We are locals and typically call in to order weekly which is very convenient. The wait time is very minimal and the food is always perfect. Once while dining in our waiter thought our wings were over cooked so she had us more brought out. We were fine with them and only noticed a slight difference but she insisted on making sure they were perfect. Great food and service!! read more

Some of the best bbq I've ever had. I had my bbq sandwich topped with slaw and it was delicious

Very good food. Absolutely no complaints here. I'm a fat man so you can take it to the bank that it's awesome food.

I work in Lucedale but from Biloxi and the clients have told me the food at Hokie's was good. But... they didn't mention about the service... So I learned the hard way. Anyways, I went to Hokies the other day and when I walked in, I felt a very uncomfortable vibe. No one greeted me or anything. Only upsetting gestures. None of the workers smiled (female servers). My server didn't smile or made me feel welcomed when I ordered my food politely. I really hate to say that the food was really good but the service was sketchy. Nothing but lil snooty waitresses with their little MissMe jeans that only acknowledged the fancy men that goes there. Very sad. read more

Good food and nice people. So........go. We had the poppers and the smoked wings. Had never tried smoked wings. Was glad we tried the smoked wings. Also, desert was great. Can't remember what it was called but it was "upside down" something. Get that too. Now this is long enough to post. Thanks Yelp for making me write more than I wanted to. read more

Love Love Love Hokies. Same great Taste evertime i go . No Complaints. service is speedy . Prices are affordable . BBQ tastes great..

I stopped in while traveling for work and it was just what I craving - good people and good bbq. It was a busy popular place and I completely understand why. The pulled pork sandwich was overflowing with meat and tasty as can be. Enjoy! read more

Nice service, nice atmosphere, good sweet tea, but when you order a burger from a bbq restaurant, you expect beef, but instead I got what I'm pretty sure was a smoked flavored soy patty burger. With that said my wife had pulled pork sandwich which was very good. read more

Excellent!!! Highly recommend! Everything on the menu is delicious. Especially love the wings and the baked beans. Can't go wrong.

Just lucked into finding this place on the way home from Florida to Texas. It was the best find of our trip! The brisket and ribs are amazing. You won't be disappointed if you eat here and the friendly service is fast! Don't forget to drink the sweet tea! read more

Hokies Bbq & Grill - a plate of food - American Near Me - Lucedale, Mississippi

Found this place while our exploring the local wildlife management areas, it was close to our location, the building is very nice, clean with plenty of seating, staff was friendly and attentive to our needs, the food was just okay, nothing special at all about the taste if their Q, nothing memoriabe, small portions and high prices... would return if I was in the area, but not making the trip just for the food. read more

YUcK!!!! The service was awful!! You have to know someone here to get decent service. This is one place I didn't even want a to-go box. It was horribly expensive as well. I don't know what the fuss is about with this place. My husband, his daughter, and I went here. We've been one time and have decided to never go back. It was a very bad experience. We had to ask for silverware, condiments, napkins, our check, more to drink. Even the sweet tea was horribly sour-it was bad. Like two weeks ago tea left out on the counter bad. My husband's daughter and I ended up asking for water. The atmosphere was pretty cool though...that was the only good experience we had about the place. read more

I really enjoyed my burger and fries here. It is a quaint place with a very nice waitstaff. I will certainly return when I'm in the area

Good barbecue, stopping for lunch; had the smoked wings potato salad, and beans. Wait staff was very attentive, and food was very good. Highly recommend. read more

Ate here once and don't plan to go back. The food was overpriced for the taste. Atmosphere was cool. Server was ok.

Best place to eat in George county. BBQ nachos are awesome!

I always order takeout and it is awesome food every time. Pulled pork, brisket, and ribs are very good and the potato salad is very good as well. The upside down sweet potato pie will keep you coming back. My favorite BBQ stop!! read more

This was my first time here but it want be my last. Wings,sausage,pork and all the trimmings we had were some of the best I've ever had. We had a party of about 65 people and the service was great and everyone working was great read more

We've eaten here several times and while the food is always good the cleanliness is not so good ..dusty burlap for window shades and flies...however I'm hoping with the remodeling work currently underway it's going to improve. Glad to have this business in Lucedale! read more
