Everytime I walked in to Local Joes Mrs. Lori would greet me with her rosy cheeks and a beautiful smile and hello. She looks like Mrs Santa Clause in July. The owner or manager is so kind and nice. He is very generous with the portions. Everyone is kind. The food is delicious. We tried most of it. We love everything especially the catfish andthe banana pudding that Mrs Lori made from scratch. My mama passed away in 2011. This wonderful southern food reminds me of my mama Yvonne's food . Also i cook some of my mama in law's recipies from my husband words of mouth. Turn out really good. Some the food there taste like hers too. Thank you.

As someone who lived in Texas for nearly 20 years before relocating to Tennessee, I have a deep…read moreappreciation, and admittedly high standards, when it comes to barbecue. My daughter and I recently dined at Willie Mae's Barbecue, and I can confidently say this was an exceptionally positive experience. From the first bite, the barbecue delivered a bold, authentic flavor profile that immediately resonated. The meats were tender, expertly prepared, and layered with richness that created a true flavor explosion. Every element reflected intention and skill. The selection of barbecue sauces further elevated the meal. Each sauce offered a distinctive, well-balanced profile that complemented the meat beautifully without overpowering it. The variety and quality were impressive. The live music added an energetic and welcoming atmosphere, enhancing the overall dining experience without distracting from the meal. It created a setting that felt both relaxed and vibrant. Finding barbecue of this caliber in Tennessee, especially in a smaller town like Springfield, was a refreshing and welcome surprise. Sharing the experience with my daughter made it even more meaningful. When she returns from Texas, we will absolutely be back.

The restaurant has a very basic, cafeteria-style setup offering a "meat and two sides" menu, with…read morenothing particularly memorable about the atmosphere. Unfortunately, while the food was visually appealing, the quality did not match the presentation. The women serving upfront were ok. I ordered the fried pork chop with turnip greens, mac and cheese, dressing, and a cornbread muffin. The pork chop was heavily battered and overwhelmingly salty, with little flavor beyond salt. The mac and cheese tasted artificial, as though processed cheese was used. The turnip greens were tender but lacked seasoning and tasted as if they had simply been boiled in water. The cornbread muffin was dry, hard, and bland. The dressing was also very disappointing and lacked flavor. Overall, the meal was extremely underwhelming and not representative of good home-style cooking. I was disappointed with both the quality and taste of the food, especially considering the restaurant's branding. After only a few bites, I discarded the meal entirely. Based on this experience, I would not return or recommend this restaurant. In my heart of hearts, this place gets zero stars...however, I believe that I have to give at least one star.

Just realized I have not done a review, and I'm bot sure how I missed it. We've been here at least…read more5 times in the last few months. BBQ is subjective, but this location is hands down our favorite spot for wings. Smoky, spicy, flavorful. The ribs are good, and they have several different sauces you can try. On their recommendation, we leave it in the bag til we get home. They are always tender and moist. But, I think the thing that makes this location special is the people. The very first time we came through, the sweet woman working the drive through made us feel like she was happy to see us, and grateful for our business. The one time we came and they were out wings, she said call ahead and they'll hold some for us. So tonight, I called ahead and got myself a tray with my name on it, and we were welcomed like family. The dining area is tiny inside and parking is tight. But drive through is easy easy. Please give them a try, and tell em Char said hi!
