This is probably one of the best BBQ joints I've been to. The staff is extremely friendly, the food…read moreis out of this world, and the portion sizes are perfect. I do wish it was slightly lower in price, but I understand that the quality and portion sizes warrant the price.

I recently visited Redwood Smoke Shack located in a shopping center off Nimmo Pkwy near the…read moreVirginia Beach courthouse for the first time. I frequently go to their Norfolk location and this location seems a little smaller, or perhaps the layout just makes it appear that way. There wasn't a long line when I arrived and once I reached the counter I was greeted. I stopped in around 1pm on a Friday to try their smoked oxtails, which were one of their daily specials. I was glad I arrived when I did, because only a few portions remained. The oxtails were excellent, very tender and well-seasoned. I feel that $35/lb without a side or cornbread included was a little overpriced. In addition to the oxtails I also ordered their Mac and cheese, which was just ok. While the sauce's consistency has improved, I found it still lacked a bit of flavor. Overall I really enjoy Redwood Smoke shack, especially when I'm craving brisket. I'm also glad I had the opportunity to try their new menu item. If you are craving good BBQ I recommend stopping by one of their locations

I ordered the Meat Sweats platter with the garlic and green onion sausage and a small order of…read morebananamisu, and everything was delicious as usual. I have been here several times to pick up food, but this was my first time actually going inside to order. The line was long around lunchtime, but it moved quickly. It is fast casual style, so you walk down the line choosing what you want and then pay at the register. I honestly had no idea that was how it worked before, so I was prepared to wait a while. I was pleasantly surprised at how efficient everything was. I was in and out much faster than expected. While putting my order together, the man helping me handed me a sample rib over the counter. I am a very socially awkward person and do not handle unexpected moments very gracefully, so I probably reacted a little awkwardly. That part was on me. The rib was GOOD though. He was very kind about my reaction and even handed me a napkin. The whole staff was friendly, asking how my week was going and checking in to make sure everyone was happy. Even though it was busy, they clearly care about customer service. The food was great. The garlic and green onion sausage had so much flavor, and the bananamisu was the perfect sweet finish. I originally went in hoping to order the BBQ oxtail, but they were sold out within two hours of opening, which honestly says a lot about how good they must be. I had also gone the day before around 7 PM and they had already closed because they were sold out for the day. Just a heads up that they do close early if they run out of food. Overall, great food, friendly staff, and quick service. I will definitely be back and hopefully I will finally catch the oxtail next time.

Loved the delicious briskets- very tender meat and nice flavors. The sides were too mushy in my…read moreopinion. Cornbread was like pudding as was the mac and cheese. Too soft and too sweet. The rubs were ok. Hardly any meat for the ones I received. The pulled pork I wouldn't get again. Stringy and dry. Their new banana infused tiramisu was delicious but it should be called banana pudding. It would be more fitting. Parking can be found in the rear of the entrance or on the street. I wouldn't mind revisiting if another friend wants to go.

While my sister was in town, she was craving some BBQ so we stopped in to Donnie's Barbecue since…read moreit was nearby. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and the smell of the barbecue made our mouth water, it smelled amazing. Since we're both foodies, we wanted to try all the things so she decided on the BBQ Chicken and the Kansas City "Meat Candy" Platter. She chose Mac & Cheese and Green Beans. I decided on the Brisket & Kansas City Sweet Pork Platter with Cole Slaw, Baked Beans and Potato Salad, Cornbread came with both. We also ordered the Smoked Chicken Salad and Banana Pudding. We decided to dine in and so we could enjoy our food while it was fresh. While we waited, we sampled the BBQ sauces at the table and the Mop sauce was phenomenal. It was sweet and tangy with a little bit of spice, it was great. The food was served pretty quickly but unfortunately, we didn't enjoy most of it. The BBQ Chicken was dry, the Meat Candy was hard, and the Brisket wasn't tender at all. The Cole Slaw tasted like shredded cabbage, nothing else, and the Potato Salad and Mac & Cheese were flavorless. I did enjoy the Kansas City Sweet Pork, especially with the Mop Sauce and the Baked Beans were pretty good. The Smoked Chicken Salad was just okay. The Banana Pudding was literally instant banana pudding with a few vanilla wafers, topped with whipped cream, it was very disappointing. I've been wanting to try Donnie's Barbecue for quite a while but after that experience, I probably won't be returning unfortunately.

Adam Leslie Marissa Wynga Johnathan Disaree All made our dinner experience extremely friendly and the food was amazing. We had pulled pork, Brisket w Mac n cheese, greens, cornbread and all the sauces, we had amazing choices. lol, I think he took the leftover small portions as his snack for lunch today. I had them in the car for my lunch. We will definitely be back and do the Meat Sampler to try the pulled chicken too. I found the background of the company, 2 brothers owning it and it is privately owned, fascinating! Very inspirational too. I am posting a yelp review w 5 stars, all the way across the spectrum! Friendly businesses are harder to find these days and WE, without doubt, enjoyed the friendliness and needed it a little too. We talked about it this morning and we both smiled.
