    Rock solid BBQ at a good price. The restaurant smelled of Smokey food and the sauces were delicious. The pulled pork sandwich was well cooked and just Smokey enough. The Mac and Cheese was nice and cheesy. A great stop and we will be back

    3.5 stars. It was dinner time and I hadn't decided what to eat. While on my way to the store, I drove past, saw the sign and made a u-turn. The place wasn't too busy so I was greeted and seated right away. I pretty much already knew that I wanted ribs so that made ordering the full rack with a side salad an easy choice. I asked that the ribs not come with the extra sauce on them and they didn't. This was great because I got to taste the other 3 sauces that they have. I preferred the one described as having a vinegar base. The salad was fresh and crisp. The housemate blue cheese dressing was perfect. The ribs were a little tiny bit dry - like right at the beginning of being over warmed. Nothing egregious enough to warrant sending them back...or to keep me from coming back. I was already eyeing the rib special on the daily special menu. Nonetheless they offered to take them back or replace. I graciously declined and ate my dinner. To my surprise my, a small discount was taken off my bill. Overall not too bad.

    It has been awhile since I had been here. My husband and I joined some friends for dinner here about a couple of years ago. (I think) Anyway, my husband and I decided that a little BBQ would be just the thing! When we entered this establishment, we were greeted by the friendly hostess and were seated in a booth by a window. and got us our sweet teas. The menu has been designed as a placemat as to be able to be recycled after use. My husband and I ordered our dinners and enjoyed conversation with another couple from a nearby table. Our server brought me my pulled pork dinner with homemade Mac and cheese and a side salad along with my hubby's baby back ribs with homemade Mac and cheese and a side salad. Our food was very delicious and the baby back ribs literally melted in your mouth. Their mac and cheese was very creamy and flavorful. Side salad was also freshly made and crisp yummy. Our server was prompt, friendly and made sure that we had everything that we needed. She was excellent. The place was very clean, staff very professional and efficient while food was top notch! We shall be back here!

So you have to ask people at your table if they'll go in to get the side you want. Because the "side" was such a large portion. Disappointing. This should be changed immediately. I had the country fried steak. It was ok. Gravy stated white peppercorn gravy. It was not white. But it tasted ok. Much better than the gravy that came on the potatoes. It was NOT good. My husband had the chicken and waffles. He liked it. Our other party had pot roast and they said the seasoning was a very unusual flavor. Not tasty. Potatoes and carrots were not cooked throughout. Liver and onions were good. The corn bread was good. Our server, Luke was cordial however it appeared that we irritated him. I caught him talking about us to another server and the cook as they all turned and looked us. Maybe I'm reading into it but based on other reviews I read I think they were being negative about our group. ‍ Anyway I would not recommend this restaurant and I'm sorry I didn't listen to the other reviews. Yelp never steers me wrong.

I also ordered hog fish * a Fl delicacy described as follows: Considered superior in taste and texture, often marketed as the "filet mignon of the sea". Well folks I was served tilapia and charged $28 for a $7 dollar dish. I hope the owner is reading this because you know it's dead wrong. I questioned the waitress Staci because I know this was bogus. Not her fault she does not run the kitchen. I did tell her I planned on reviewing the experience...... after 2 bites I took the food to go so I could prove that they knowingly price gouge customers. I was shocked to learn that misrepresenting fish in FL is considered a food violation and a finable offense....now i have evidence so let's see where this goes. Anyway guys when you go to Salty Papa order chicken wings and cheap drinks others they will try to scam you. See pics of tilapia vs their hogfish *same cheap fish. Also adding pics of real delicacy. This place is a fraud. Owner left a very aggressive response. Not sure why when you got your $28 and I left my phone number. No need to be Sassy if you are really customer satisfaction tag you're it. Enjoy your weekend!

It had the lettuce, some coleslaw to keep it interesting and a piece of fresh grilled fish. The Mac and cheese was death row meal worthy! Loved the banana cream pie too! My waiter Avery steered me right on the selection. Went back another day for lunch. I had the fish on the Ellie Mae salad and it was good. And the key lime pie. Avery waited on me both times and is a gem! Very pleasant, attentive, and dead in with his suggestions. Wish I could return! Need to try the breakfast!!
