    Pork ribs ONE MEAT PLATTER ..BURNT ENDS
    Phoenicia S.

    Customer service is Top Tier (at least the day I went ) I informed them that it was my first time there and I was given all the information I needed to feed my hunger!! $50 later (well worth it) and I'm in my hotel room talking to them about how delicious this food is!!! The restaurant was clean and smelled amazing from the door!! I will definitely be back before I leave VA to return to NC!! Keep up the great work REDWOOD TEAM!!!

    I've been a loyal fan of this spot for a while, and my "usual" is almost always the Smoked Fried Wings. They have an incredible flavor thanks to the dry rub seasoning. My only slight hesitation has always been that they are fried after the smoke to finish them off, but the taste usually wins me over. On this visit, however, I decided to branch out and explore the rest of the menu. It was a game-changer. The Meat Highlights Smoked Turkey (by the pound): This was a revelation. It was sliced perfectly, remarkably tender, and packed a punch of smoky flavor that you don't always get with poultry. Pork Spare Ribs: This was easily the star of the show. The cut of meat was high-quality and exceptionally tender. The Sauce Strategy What I appreciated most was the house BBQ sauce. It acted as a "punctuation" to the flavor. It enhanced the ribs without overpowering the natural smoke and seasoning. The Verdict: While the wings are a solid staple, the smoked turkey and ribs proved that this kitchen knows exactly what they're doing with a smoker. If you're looking for tender meat where the flavor speaks for itself, you can't go wrong here.

    After pickle ball we were hungry and decided to get some bbq. The pork bbq was nice and tender, and I also enjoyed their Cole slaw right on top in my sandwich. The mac and cheese was very tasty and cheesy. I do wish they had fresh cut fries, but I do enjoy their seasoning on their crinkle cut fries. The staff were wonderful - they went out of their way to be helpful with my to-go order I decided to get for my husband. By the way, he enjoys their sliced beef brisket a lot. The atmosphere is casual and busy with plenty of seating available. In the area? Check Them Out!

    Cute little bbq spot in Suffolk. The line is always long so I had to see what the hype was about. The line moves fast but expect a little wait. This is cafeteria/counter style fast casual BBQ. I liked being able to see all the food options available. My husband and I shared the meat sweat sampler. We subbed the pork bbq for extra chicken bbq and had collards and fries as our sides. We also had two bbq sauces suggested by the workers: the mustard one and a classic red. The brisket was absolutely amazing although could have benefited from a little more salt. The best option of everything we had. Second best was the sausage. The chicken was average and the rib was chewy. Maybe we got a bad one. The fries were great and the collards were different. I probably wouldn't order collards again. I hear the Mac and cheese is good and will give that a try. I personally felt everything lacked salt but was easy to adjust based on preference. I will come back to try their burnt ends and a few other items. Overall a convenient bbq spot in Suffolk. If you are a bbq lover check this place out.

    Excited that the Suffolk location has opened. The line has been insane but it goes pretty fast considering. The crew member attending to the line outside was friendly and kept checking on us. There is a lot of seating inside. Food as always was great. The issue we had was we ordered the pork bbq and the serving size was super small. We found out that we were given a kids portion not the full portion. Luckily another crew member corrected this.

    Food was great. Always great. The staff are always friendly and helpful. Very good service. Just gotta make sure you beat the line cuz you can get stuck in there for 30 minutes if you're not careful. But it's a very nice and clean place that you wouldn't mind eating in

    I stopped for lunch at Redwood Smoke Shake today! I've been dreaming of eating here again. I also had a get a free bananamisu coupon that's been in my purse to be used . I ordered a To Go , 1 meat and 2 sides platter. I got the brisket, mac and cheese and beans. I LOVE the white cheddar mac n cheese with a passion. Yum! Cheesy! Yum! Brisket of course was on point! The seasoning is so tasty. The Bananamisu went very well with my meal! Thanks ! Place was nice and organized. Staff is friendly. It was a good time!

    This place is always crazy crowded, lines out the door and wrapped around the side. Perhaps that was why I was expecting something outstanding. I wound up slightly disappointed. The food is average leaning towards good. The spouse and son loved it. I wasn't all that impressed. I suspect it was the price and my high expectations. The meat is tasty but super fatty. I'm not a fan of that type of cut and feel like they're skimping and giving me subpar meat (probably just me). The seasoning they use is good but nothing that will make me crave it later. I was just left feeling underwhelmed. Small portions, they carefully weigh every ounce out. Gotta be sure to not give you any extra at those high prices. Already mentioned the high fat meat and it's very greasy. The beans, broccoli salad, and potato salad lean heavily on onions to the point where it was all I tasted. If my review feels all over the place it's because I felt that way after eating it. I felt meh about it and the family loved it. I probably would have rated it lower if not for them.

    BURNT ENDS PLATTER

    The food tastes very good. The burnt ends were crispy and moist. The flavor was on point. The fries were crispy. The sauces were delicious. The service was quick as most Texas bbq joints are. My only complaint is the portion sizes are insulting for a restaurant "inspired by Texas". My fire contain wasn't even half way full. And there was 7 pieces of meat in my burnt ends. I spent 40 dollars, no tip. I won't be back, simply because the price is too high for what you are receiving.

    Brisket was dry, as was pulled pork. Mac n cheese was ok and potato salad as well. I would say average BBQ taste like a chain restaurant.

She told me they have different food trucks come out at least once a month, and Hangry Girl Eats was one of today's options. I ordered the Silent Treatment sandwich, and overall, it was DELICIOUS. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and you could tell they were using quality ingredients. They definitely don't skimp either. There were plenty of toppings, plenty of meat, and the sandwich itself was a really good size. My only complaint was that it was surprisingly a little dry. With all of the peppers and toppings, I wasn't expecting that at all, but once I got down to the layer with the meat, I definitely felt like it could have used a little more moisture or sauce. That being said, it was still a great sandwich and I really enjoyed it. I also got the passion fruit lemonade, which was delicious and paired really well with the sandwich. The ordering process was easy. They gave me a buzzer after I ordered, my food was ready in about 10 minutes, and I was on my way. Overall, great experience, fresh and quality ingredients, and a GREAT sandwich. If they added just a little something to combat the dryness, the Silent Treatment would be pretty much perfect. Definitely a thumbs up from me!

IF I had to complain, I would say I don't think a sandwich is worth $16. Luckily, since they were a part of our jobs food truck day, we got a 50% discount!

However, today as well as yesterday and they'll be here tomorrow, they're located just outside of the Sam's Club near Chesapeake Square Mall in the parking lot. I was so happy to see this yellow food truck with all the goodness that I long for daily... popcorn!! And a favorite...kettle corn and it's super delicious! I first fell in love with this popcorn at Yelp's Summer event that took place at the Children's Museum in May of this year... Mike's Italian Ice was one of the vendor's present. I usually travel to Williamsburg Outlets for that Infamous popcorn there but no need to travel unnecessary when Mike's Italian Ice is right here minutes away from my home. I purchased the large bag of kettle corn for $7 and they have a regular size bag which is $5. So worth the $7, please spend that extra $2 that way you can share with family and friends and not worry about all of it being gone in one sitting. He also has Italian Ice which is great as well. My daughter tried it today for the first time. She ordered the regular size Italian ice with two flavors...watermelon and green apple and she said she absolutely loved it! Mr. Mike remembered me from the Yelp event too!! He definitely stacked the Italian ice in that regular cup so shout out to him for looking out. Mr. Mike...such a friendly guy willing to deliver over the top customer service and focused on delivering freshness. Not sure if he had other food for sale, I did see other beverages for sale. I definitely recommend you give it a try like I said he's going to be outside of the Sam's Club tomorrow Sunday July 16th as well from open to close (Sams Club hours). Have fun | enjoy life
