    Ribs and Fries
    Ward D.

    Great BBQ with large portions This restaurant is located at 147 Traders Way in Pooler, Georgia, just off I-95 near the Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport. It's location makes it a convenient stop for travelers heading north or south. It's part of a chain known for Southern-style, slow-cooked barbecue. Their menu shows that they feature brisket, pulled pork, chicken, and ribs. Access was easy with a straightforward entrance from the main road, and there was plenty of parking in the lot surrounding the stand-alone building. We didn't need a reservation and were greeted promptly by a friendly host who seated us quickly in a booth. The menu is a single 2-sided tri-fold page packed with lots of options, including meats by the pound, platters, sandwiches, salads, and a variety of sides like mac and cheese, greens, potato salad, and cornbread muffins. Portions are really large, so come hungry or be ready to get a to-go bag so you can have extra meals later. I ordered the baby back BBQ ribs, which were good and tender but had a unique smoky flavor profile different from what I'm used to. The tea was excellent. The staff was very pleasant throughout, checking in without being overly obvious. The restaurant was clean with a mix of booths and tables. Prices were definitely reasonable given the quality and the generous amount of food we each got--a full meal with sides came in under $20 per person. Overall, I would recommend this to fellow travelers in the area looking for solid Southern BBQ in a relaxed setting. Enjoy!

    Although I do wish Jim N Nick's offered a lunch menu that was smaller portion and lower price, the food here is worth every penny. High quality, perfectly cooked meats and fresh cut watermelon as a side was superior. The little corn muffins are to die for. Management came up to check on us a couple times and make sure everything was good and I appreciated that. We will be back and eat at this beautiful bar area, the drinks served at the bar look awesome. Well done Jim N Nick's!

    Jim 'N Nick's Bar-B-Q is a well known bbq restaurant chain. But I will say the food is always good. This particular restaurant is located along the Pooler Parkway. It is close to First Watch and the business center that has Chicken Salad Chick and Smoothie King. It has a large parking lot to accommodate vehicles. We did not dine in, we ordered using their convenient drive thru. It was easy to read the large menu and order. I will not say that it was quick. But I did not expect it to be. There were multiple cars in front of us. Our food was given to us in a manageable amount of time. I was not disappointed. When I read the menu I saw they had a family meal option! This is something I will definitely try next time. It is certainly great for meal prep or your family for the price with the options provided. Check it out!

    Jim N Nicks perfectly smoked turkey with extra smokiness I got the original barbecue sauce it has a nice little kickback with two sides of baked beans. The baked beans are very flavorful and Smokey; there's some pulled pork and chopped chilies in the beans. For drink I got a Mr. Pibb and my partner got a old fashioned. Our server, Brandy- let me tell you she's ultimately the best! She's super nice and has that southern charm and hospitality. Jim and Nicks is really good! 10/10

    Vanessa was so sweet and friendly! The food was amazing! The loaded baked potato was so yummy. It had everything. I ordered mine with the bbq sauce on the side! It didn't need it but was good too! The sandwich was fabulous and the baked beans were delicious! Will be back!!!

    Mac & Cheese

    Jim 'N Nicks in Pooler, GA is a great franchise! I love how consistent and fantastic this chain is... it's like comfort southern for me! I highly recommend their Mac & Cheese. It has a slight after kick, (not spicy heat) and it's addicting! Their iced peach tea is always delicious and so are their cheese biscuits... ummm they are dangerously good! I will say that their chopped southern salad was a little mid??? It wasn't as fresh as I'd like (maybe bcs the greens were room temp and not cold). Still good with ranch and smoked chicken!

    In Savannah visiting an Army buddy and recommended this barbeque spot. Small outdoor seating available. Bar seating available. Drive thru available. The pre meal muffins was delicious! I want to say cheddar muffins, soft n yummy The Loaded Mac & Cheese, very gooey, cheesy yummy in the tummy. Topped with pulled pork, covered in the barbeque sauce. It was a homerun for me. Awesome, friendly staff. Overall, great place for barbeque and a good time.

    My first time and definitely not my last. I have the catfish platter with baked beans, potato salad and half of a jalapeño sausage. Really, Really Good! The catfish was seasoned and fried perfectly. Our waitress was outstanding and the cost was reasonable. The ambiance was cool, spacious and comfortable. #LovedIt

    We had a chance to visit 912 Korean BBQ and hot pot last weekend. We were looking for something…read morecasual but filling for dinner and because we had not tried out this place yet but had driven by several times, we decided to check it out. Definitely a great decision on a hunch. This is an all you can eat hot pot concept and frankly my first time attending this version. While I have visited hibachi restaurants in the past, this is not that. Basically this is a dual table side prep concept where you can either make your own custom soups and broths, and hot pot seafood or you can select the grill and grill of a variety of fresh meats and fish and vegetables, or you can get both. Both come with a small dessert bar and seem to be accompanied with the additional Fresh salad and sauce bar, although I'm not quite sure if one of those may have been restricted if you did the grill only or the hot pot only. Pricing is pretty fair at about $30 a person which rises to mid 30s if you decide to get both options. We went with the combo because we had never tried this concept before, but in the future, I may lean more towards the grill option only. Especially if I'm not in the mood for hot pot or soup. But I definitely enjoyed the combination choice for our first visit. The meat and vegetable selections at this restaurant are pretty vast and this is after the server first sets you up and allows you to pick from several different types of broth for your hot pot. In addition, they have a sauce bar that must've had 20+ sauces available to choose from. I think one of the most overwhelming aspects of this concept is lack of familiarity with the right combinations of hot pot and grilled options. For this we leaned heavily on our server and she did a great job of guiding us through a couple of her favorite combinations, as well as some of the favorite combinations of other patrons. This was really helpful because there isn't a menu or chart to help you unlock all of the really cool combinations that you can put together including Ramen udon and Thai soup varieties. All of the ingredients you need to make any of those dishes, but in your own customize version, are here to your heart's desire. Service is really good as they do switch out the grills rather rapidly as they will get charred and start to burn and smoke after three or four rounds of fresh meats and veggies slapped on them. However, they do not switch out your broth choice so once you make your choice, that's what you're rolling with for the rest of the dinner. All in all we were really satisfied with the freshness and the preparation of most of the ingredients and sauces. I did think the dessert bar was a little weak given the multitude of options elsewhere, but I also understand that this is consistent with the cultural preferences, which don't skew as heavy on traditional sweets, like American taste do. All in all this is definitely a treat for those looking for a great date night or just looking to take the family out for a really engaging and tasty cook at your table experience - all you can eat style!

I stopped by for lunch and was greeted with a helpful person behind the register. I haven't had good Korean friend chicken since living in New England, so this was a great treat. The prices are higher than other places that specialize in chicken in this area, but it's full of flavor. Also love the pickled radish, but didn't like that I had to order that as a side. I'm used to that coming with the chicken as a palate cleanser, esp. if you have two savory flavors - my favorite combo here was the garlic spicy and red hot spicy. I came in on a weekday around 2 and it's was pretty empty, but I did some work while waiting for my food. Definitely going back!

I tried the garlic honey fried wings and they were really delicious. They definitely have a little bit of a kick when you first bite them, but as you continue eating them, the heat kinda slows down. At first, the price point can also seem a little pricey, but overall I think it was really worth it. I was able to have a 10 piece between myself and my spouse for two nights of dinner. I also didn't realize that they serve things like beer and wine and had available seating, so I'll definitely be back to try to dine in instead of taking out. I still had no issues with the takeout option, as my food was still piping hot by the time I got it home. They also have really cute decor inside.

We ordered off the menu rather than the buffet -- though both were available and the buffet looked well-stocked and genuinely tempting. My husband had the Shrimp & Grits: Georgia shrimp over stone-ground grits with andouille sausage, peppers, onions, bacon, and a sherry cream sauce. Rumor had it that was the move, and the rumor was right. The grits alone were the kind you don't stop talking about -- velvety, deeply seasoned, the kind of base that makes everything sitting on top of it taste better than it already is. I went with the fried catfish, a side of mac and cheese, and a bowl of gumbo. Honest take: the catfish itself was good -- the fish was fresh and well-flavored -- but the batter had gone a little soggy, which kept it from landing where it could have. That's the kind of thing that varies by timing, not kitchen quality. The mac and cheese, though, was exactly what you want: cheesy without being gluey, hot all the way through, properly indulgent. And the gumbo -- chicken and sausage, rich and built with patience -- was the best thing on my side of the table. On a rainy afternoon in coastal Georgia, it was exactly right. Then there was the cornbread, served with peach cobbler butter. That detail alone tells you something about how this kitchen thinks. It's not an afterthought. It completed everything around it. I'm not from the South, and I won't pretend to have a lifetime of comparison points. But there's a kind of food that makes you feel like you were born into it anyway -- like your body already knew what it was tasting. That's what happened here. Good for road trippers, families, rainy days, and anyone who needs a real meal after a long stretch of highway. Four stars, with the grits alone pulling hard toward four and a half.
