    We stopped in to Papa's Smokehouse for lunch today and here's the review: Great lunch, quick service, good prices!

    From top left, pulled pork, sliced smoked turkey below, full rack of ribs on the right!  So good
    Todd M.

    Amazing food. Amazing service. The restaurant is very clean and so nice! We got pounds of pork, turkey and a full rack of ribs to go. Everything was spot on! Real wood smoke flavor, moist not dry. The best I've had since living here the past 5 years. I can't wait to eat in and try the other sides. We got a pint of Mac and cheese and it was just as good as the BBQ. I consider myself a Cue aficionado and this did not disappoint!

    Okay, okay, this place here, they provide some of the most respectful and professional hospitality and customer service. Then food, be so tasteful and delicious. I have been satisfied EVERY TIME I have been here. I had a call in order for the 4th and I was amazed when my daughter delivered my food. I was comfortable in the atmosphere the last time I was there...this won me to continue spending money here. Customer service is excellent...

    I didn't get a pic of our food because we were too busy devouring it, but I couldn't resist this cute little pig trio over the doorway.

    We decided to try Papa's today because we were craving good BBQ and did not want to drive all the way to Miramar and we are SO GLAD we did. Everything was delicious and the service was great as well. I had the brisket and turkey with fresh cut fries and mac-n-cheese and my boyfriend had turkey and jalapeño cheese sausage with fresh cut fries and baked beans. We enjoyed everything and I will tell you the Mac-n-cheese was the best I've ever had at a BBQ joint. It was so creamy and has the best flavor... I haven't stopped thinking about it since we left Do not pass this place up!!

    We stopped in Wednesday for dinner & tried out their current 1/2 lb brisket special. It wasn't crowded & the staff was super friendly. We ordered right away and got our food immediately. Food was hot and fresh! We tried out the mac & cheese and the baked beans. Both were so tasty and had so much flavor. We got to test out all of their sauces too & nailed down the one we love! Overall we had a great experience and staff made the trip A+! We will be back & would recommend to others in the area.

    The brisket was overcooked, dry, and bland, with an unpleasant burnt flavor on the outer layer. The mac and cheese had overcooked noodles, and the cheese sauce tasted like it came from a Velveeta box. While the portions were generous, the flavors fell short, and it's not a place I'd return to.

    Brisket, sausage, mac-n-cheese, and baked beans

    This is my second time to try the brisket. In my previous review, I praised the sides but not the brisket. The sides. Lima Beans and Mac-n-cheese were great. The brisket still no favor. Even with bbq sauce, I was able to taste an unflavored brisket. This is my last time eating their brisket; it was disappointing. Whatever wood being used to smoke the brisket is not working for me. The service was great. It was served quickly. The ambiance is good. The restaurant is clean and the staff is on top of cleaning the tables.

    It is no wonder that nobody ever goes to Papa's smokehouse anymore; it's always too crowded!

    1. Drive thru line went fairly quickly, 5 cars in front of me at the height of dinner rush hour,…read moregot to the window in less then 10mins 2. Food was really good (order potato combo meal with brisket and a coke) a. The combo included 2 corn and cheese small muffins, a container of bbq sauce, and a large baked potato with butter, bacon, green onions, sour cream, and my choice of meat brisket b. The brisket was GOOD! The muffins were very light, buttery, moist; not dry at all or too corny. c. The bbq sauce was thankfully in a container off to the side, it was too watery for me and was not a fan of the taste, it was like ketchup with water. 3. Price a little high for my liking ($18) 4. Not a fan of styrofoam when there are better cheaper alternatives out there 5. There is a tip jar at the window and if you pay with a debit card they have you sign the receipt where it also asks for a tip. I'm not a fan of paying drive thru service workers a tip like you would a waiter/waitress. 6. Wish they sold chili. If they did sell chili I would like to see it come with the same toppings as the baked potato does. 7. I will definitely be a returning customer just not as often due to the price.

    Food is always excellent! Staff is always polite and friendly. My last time through, I was so far…read moreaway from the window that she called a gentleman over and he politely handed my food through the window. He said have a blessed day, ma'am. It was a great experience and left a smile on my face.

    I recently dined at Fat Boys in Niceville and was very disappointed with the service we received…read morefrom our server, Sara. Throughout our visit, Sara made several inappropriate jokes and comments that made my party extremely uncomfortable. Rather than providing professional customer service, she engaged in conversations that were not suitable for a restaurant setting. At one point, while standing near our table, she openly gossiped with another server about a young hostess, speaking negatively about the employee within earshot of customers. This was highly unprofessional and reflected poorly on the restaurant. After this conversation, Sara disappeared for an extended period of time. We waited quite a while for drink refills and had difficulty getting her attention. When we finally requested a refill, she responded by making yet another inappropriate joke instead of focusing on customer service. The combination of the inappropriate comments, workplace gossip, and inattentive service created an uncomfortable dining experience. I believe customers should be able to enjoy their meal without being subjected to unprofessional behavior from restaurant staff. I hope management will address these concerns and ensure a higher standard of professionalism moving forward.
