We finally made an effort to come to The Shed's original location on our drive to the Pass. On a…read morehot summer afternoon, we were relieved for big fans and cold water, and hopefully tasty food. My smoked chicken sandwich was good and full of meat. To the point I needed a fork and knife to finish eating it. My side of collard greens were good but missing the smoked turkey flavor. My husband got a sandwich and 2 sides combo and had significantly less meat than I did in his sandwich. Not sure if that's because I ordered just a sandwich and 1 side vs a combo. The food came out fast enough and I believe the value of food received for the amount paid was good, but I was expecting more flavor. Overall, I don't think we'll be rushing back given the proximity to the start/ end of our drive.

Half chicken, okra, and collard greens came out on big tray and I about fell out of my seat!!! So much food, holy cow bells! I could eat this for days. Rich flavorful Chicken, perfectly balanced fried okra, and the collard greens, best I have ever had. Really impressed with this place, nice downtown atmosphere with a train being backed up into harbor added a nice touch to the nostalgic feeling. Bring your family and or friends bring an appetite and don't worry about the price, either share a meal or plan on taking some home. Very affordable and the taste... I am sold. Looking forward to my next visit. It's worth the detour off of I10.

I understand BBQ is probably the most scrutinized but I'm not a BBQ regular and just trying to be objective. I got a two meat plate which also came with two sides. The pulled pork was more like sloppy Joe style with way too much sauce. The brisket was really thin and more like bacon. I thought the amount of food was small. It all fit on one 8-10" plate. The price was $18.99 plus all the extra OS taxes and tip so ended up being $25 for lunch. Unfortunately, I regretted eating here; especially contemplating other options I could eat out for $25 and decided I won't be back.

Stopped in for lunch while traveling through Ocean Springs. Saw mixed reviews but decided to give…read moreit a try. I ordered the Rio Grande plate, which was a sampling of pork ribs, brisket taco, brisket empanada and sides. The ribs were fall off the bone tender, but lacked flavor and served room temperature. The taco was tough, cold and I only got one bite in that I couldn't chew through. The empanada had great texture but was greasy and once again, room temperature. In fact, the only thing on my plate served hot were the beans, which were fantastic, sweet and smoky. My wife's baked potato came piping hot and I sampled the turkey which was really good and tender. The service was adequate, stood at the host stand for an awkward minute or two before being greeted. Our server was nice but not overly attentive or friendly. Seemed to be fairly clean and well kept in the dining room and bar area. May come back and try it again, but wouldn't go out of my way based on this experience.

Anxious to try this location after the killer burger I had at the Biloxi location…read more Happily greeted by the hostess and pleasantly seated right away. We beat the Sunday church crowd by about 30 minutes. I decided to try the "Nola" burger (listed as the same blend I had at other locations) topped with blackened shrimp and creamy sauce. I ordered my burger medium well. I usually go with medium, but this being a beef and sausage blend patty, I like it over 150 internal. My burger came to the table RARE at best. Took one bite and immediately saw red...in the patty. To their credit, they re-fired and served me a well done burger pretty quick. The patty was all beef and not a touch of seasoning or salt. The cream sauce was a savior, it was nice and flavorful though partly broken. It did not make up for this (now) overdone and flavorless burger patty. The shrimp were fantastic, especially dipped in this Cajun cream sauce. Then I paid witness to something I have never encountered. The hosts tried to seat a party with a person in a wheelchair, in an end booth. Obviously, they immediately protested and had to explain why they couldn't be seated in a booth. They were quickly moved to a table...but this just shook me on how either untrained or uneducated folks can be when it comes to disabled. Shake it off, back to the review. The fries were delicious and hot, just like the ones at the other locations. I think maybe they make their own ranch dressing, it was killer with my piping hot and crispy fries. The Bloody Mary was OK, glass rim was seasoned but spilled all over the napkin upon arrival. Service was friendly and adequate but otherwise unimpressive, had to call server over for the burger issue. If I had not have had such a flavorful burger at the other location, I probably would not have been as disappointed with this one. May give another try at this location, but will probably defer to the other location given the choice.

We recommend this spot for great homemade food.

So I did end up getting a cheeseburger (playing it "safe") but it was a HOMERUN! Grilled onions were superb. Crunchy pickles. The bun was buttered and just *chef kiss*. I did get onion rings and egg rolls as sides and they complimented very well to my cheeseburger. Connor ordered the Italian Hoagie with Au Jus and peppered. I had 2 bites. One on top and one on bottom with ALL the au jus - I definitely loved the juicier bite. The owner asked which one and upon telling him the juicier bite he mentioned the Chicago way is to have them "BAPTIZED and PEPPERED" and that sounded perfect. Connor and I plan on going back next Monday to try the baptized Italian hoagie or the Philly cheesesteak or for me the polish dog! Amazing amazing amazing!
