I have been travelling to Jacksonville NC for a while and see Smithfield's (what seems like)…read moreeverywhere. I go past and think....BBQ sounds good. When I went it was after work and I was on the hungry side. I park the rental and go inside. First thing I notice was how clean the place was. Spotless. A dude was cleaning the tables, another person was cleaning the windows. Spotless. The menu is straight forward. You can smell the chicken and pork cooking. I decide on the Bar B-Q sandwich. I get a side of baked beans. She takes the order and I grab a seat. It's not long and my order is ready. I took it for takeout and went back to the hotel. The sandwich didn't taste right. I am good with the coleslaw on the sandwich but the meat had an off taste to it. The baked beans could have been better...they had a funk to them that couldn't be ignored. So, the advice from my coworkers was right. My next visit to Jacksonville will include a different BBQ restaurant.

The portions were huge so you get a really full meal for a pretty good price. The jerk chicken was perfect. Spicy, with a hint of sweet on a bed of rice and beans. My only disappointment was with the sides. I ordered fries and plantains and I dunno if it was because we ate late in the day, but the sides were bitter and tasted like burnt oil. Still, I came for the jerk chicken and it delivered in spades. I'll definitely come back here again earlier in the day and order some different sides with my meal.

They also sell a burger and hotdog which are good. The Mac and cheese is great. It's also one of two chow halls open thirty minutes later than the main chow halls.

Maybe it was because we got what was left over from the day, because it was a half hour before closing. But even if that were true.... there was barely any chicken, mostly bones. And it was so spicy, I couldnt taste the chicken. All it was, was burning my mouth. The pasta sauce was overspiced as well. My husband received a very small portion of trout. No rice was given, as it was supposed to be. I think maybe they were out of rice. So he was given a piece of cornbread, wrapped in plastic wrap. He gave it to me because i was so unhappy with my meal, I barely touched it. The cornbread was so oily, it fell apart when i took it out of the plastic. I got to taste the cabbage and cole slaw, those were ok. Cabbage was bland. I dont think we will go back and try again. Way too pricey for what we received. Positive note, the staff was kind and friendly, and the place was cute.

The staff is amazing! They are so kind to their customers, even the littlest shopper! I enjoy having the seafood department, the fresh cuts of meat, the chicken kitchen and even the sausage works. The community table is really neat too! They always have great ideas and pairings for you to try. We have even ordered our Thanksgiving meal from them :) The bread pudding is amazing! Need an idea for lunch? Try their pizzas or gourmet sandwiches. Want something hot? Go with chicken kitchen. Their hot and ready meals are a favorite at my house. They have a great beer and wine selection. With daily tastings available. I became hooked on Lowe's because of the labeling and easy shopping experience when my daughter had a milk intolerance and I had to find alternatives such as soy, almond and coconut yogurts, cheese, ice cream and more. The way they label their specialty items really helps for those with allergies or dietary restrictions.

You can choose a bowl, a wrap, or a pita. They do offer sandwiches and other items as well. I decided on a bowl. I chose yellow rice instead of quinoa. I was able to have a few small samples to help make a decision. I also had lamb, chicken, garbanzo beans, spinach, three different hummus (feta, traditional, roasted eggplant), lettuce, tomato, feta, cucumbers, naan, and tzatziki over the top. I also decided to have a lemonade. They have several different lemonades to choose from and it's bottomless if you're dining in. I added so many items to the bowl the price was fairly high, but worth it. There's plenty of seating inside and it's a nice dining room. Very simple, but comfortable. I sat and enjoyed my bowl with pomegranate lemonade. Everything was delicious. I'm happy that I finally tried The Hummus Republic. I will definitely eat here again. Recommend giving it a try.

I considered ordering online but dropped by in person only to find a single kiosk for ordering with…read morethe same options and without some of the special deals advertised on the website, so there really isn't any reason not to order online. I got a pretty full bowl. I noted that the kale they had out had a number of dubious leaves in it, but the person picked around them to get me some nice green kale (if I were them I'd just dump the wilted ones). Vegetarian options were ample at all levels of the ordering process and indeed the only non-vegan component i ended up with was some feta. It was a salty and tasty bowl; oddly the salad greens were the only thing I got less of than expected. I also said what the heck and got what they call a signature tahini shake, which was absurdly filling to the point that I pretty much skipped a meal. Okay if that's what you want. Overall, not perfect but a quality place with options for most diets.
