Came with a friend to put that to the test. My verdict: it fills a need, but it doesn't hold up to what you'd get in the actual South. The food was decent. Nothing offensive, but nothing that jumped out and grabbed me either. If you're in a region that isn't exactly a barbecue mecca, I get why people rate it. It scratches the itch. For me, it's just fine. One gripe that's very on-brand to make in Berkeley of all places: the amount of plastic. Plastic bags, plastic everything. For a city that lectures the rest of the country about the environment, they could stand to practice what the zip code preaches. Decent BBQ, middling execution but come in with tempered expectations.

FALSE ADVERTISING!! They say that they have NO SPECIAL deal with Mr. Kruger! I didn't know that it was NOT an actual restaurant setting/sitting. Not a fan. The food had to be microwaved.... Not a fan. The food was good but everything was weighed; not a fan. INCLUDING the Bar-B-Que sauce??? The only ribs were Baby back, not particular. The chicken was the best. Then the brisket, but you are out of sauce by then. Their famous white sauce was just not bar-b-que sauce. You could eat the baby backs WITHOUT sauce; but, I like sauce on bar-b-que. Sides ... the greens have all of the right ingredients but the need to be cooked, much much longer. They were pig in a pickle ... didn't like their pickle s. Service was ok. It was like going to a food truck INDOORS!! Ambience. It was like going to a food truck. The positive from this 'Muppet's adventure' ... I am going to start my own 'sports blog'.

The fried mushrooms are a must have side that I always order. Service is quick and when you order, you get a peek of burgers grilling. Al's is perfect for a quick bite with a small group as there are limited tables inside and outside with seating for 2-4 persons. Parking lot is small with a slightly awkward layout but I've always found a spot. Definitely a place to fix that burger craving!

Cons: veggies were fresh but bland. Fries were pre-cut - Sysco-ish. Big con: one cheese and one bacon cheese burger with shared drink and fries was $35 plus tip. Seems like a ton of money for what I thought was a good backyard style burger but nothing fancy. I think backyard style is the best description of the flavor. A bit dry. Not super juicy. Some char flavor which some will like others will not. Service was friendly but a decade ago one wouldn't dream of tipping at a place like this. Fast food and tips? Huh. Anyway, my sweetie didn't finish her burger because she didn't like the taste. So that dropped it from a 3.5 to a solid 3. Good but not great.

I happened upon this place when me and my significant other visited The Plug Tattoo. We've seen the…read moreLoaded Chickn food truck before, usually coupled with long lines of people waiting to place an order, I naturally assumed the food must be worth the wait. On Friday we decided to give it a try. Honestly we both were hoping to order the Chicken Fried Rice but unfortunately they were completely sold out. So we opted for the Cajun Chicken tenders and fries as well as the Mango Habanero chicken wings and fries. It took about 25 minutes for our order to be completed. We were extremely pressed for time so we literally grabbed our food and left. In hindsight the time was extremely reasonable as that's how long it takes for your food to be prepared. In other words our food was made to order and not previously prepared. Let me just say the Mango Habanero wings were delicious! They were generously sauced with the right about of crispness. I found them to be flavorful and abundant. My order came with about 10 wings, fries and sauce. The sauces did not come with a lid, I was t too thrilled about that. As for the tenders, they were large, well seasoned with a dry rub, crispy and juicy. It's two days later and I am STILL thinking about my food which is a great sign. If you're in a rush, it will take a while for your food to be prepared and because the food is excellent know you will have to stand in quite a line. I would highly recommend if you enjoy chicken as there are several options to choose from. I most definitely will be returning!

You almost don't see it because it's on the corner and it isn't prominent with a big sign in front you have to look but it's worth a stop. I went inside it was after the lunch shift and I got my food to go because I wanted to bring something home for my wife who'd been working hard all day. I was greeted by I guess the manager or owner in the front of a very nice lady very hospitable and she explained the food culture to me. I wanted to get food to go that I could share with my wife that was take out. My grandma is from the South so I have no problem recognizing good Southern food. I was I did I was impressed when I looked at the menu and saw Mac and cheese, fried okra, Cajun fries, fried cabbage, Jojo's grilled veggies, bake beans, and Flora's famous peach cobbler. I was hooked already. I ordered the barbecue junior ribs with a substitution for the potato salad I had to have some greens. And I have to tell you when I got home my wife's eyes just about popped out of her head the smell filled the room and we dove into it like it owes us money. After several quiet minutes at the dinner table there was nothing left but clean plates and bones. We we were so happy that I had stopped in there out of curiosity. I will go back but this time I'll eat in and I will again share this food with my wife. Did I mention that if you eat with me and I order that peach Cobbler, that Flora's Famous Peach cobbler, I won't share

Stopped in for lunch on a Thursday and they had a fair size crowd in the dining room. Might have been a group. In any case the large number of folks had the staff running. Nevertheless Curtis immediately introduced himself to us, seated us, and brought us bread and salads to keep us busy while they got caught up. We eventually ordered the Fish Hoagie with fries ($15) and the Jambalaya ($20). Both were excellent. The fish in the hoagie was Cajun fried catfish. Cooked perfectly and had the right amount of spice to it. Big enough sandwich that I took half home. The jambalaya had plenty of shrimp and sausage, cooked perfectly as well. For dessert we had the peach cobbler, which came out hot and is a big enough portion to share (they comped the dessert because the server already tallied the bill and chose not to adjust it). Great finish to our meal. Throughout our meal young Server Evan checked on us continually. What a nice, polite young man! Overall - great food, very friendly service, and great value (beers for $3.50 each?!?). Go soon before they figure out they need to raise their prices.
