I don't know what other issues people had with service but everyone was super nice and helpful. And walked me thru the menu. Got the smoke wings with garlic parm on side. I would vote 7/10. Great flavor withoutsauce but a "little" dry. If we are being picky vs others I've tried. But again, I would 100% get them again. Garlic parm sauce was great to dip them in. The star of the meal? The smoked pastrami 20/10. . Hands down.. amazing. It's an extremely close second to Green Street bbq in Chicago. I got their regular bbq sauce (Carolina red) on the side. It's called Carolina but no vinegar. Which I'm ok with. What great sweat bbq sauce. Totally unique. Would be amazing on chicken or pulled pork. I'm now a huge fan of this place. Can't wait to try rest of menu and Brisket Mac n cheese!

I stop by Carrol Lou's all the time. Food is good and you get a lot. I stopped today to get lunch…read more They were busy with a line waiting to order. I stepped to the back of the line to wait my turn. The young lady taking orders took five people's orders ahead of me. I stepped up to order and she stepped away to start helping the two people fixing the food. Now I was the last one in the line when she stepped away. Why she just did not take my order and then step away I doing not know. I stood there for a long time then gave up and left. I ran in to the owner outside and told him about it. He just blew me off and called me Buddy. The owners have been arrogant in the past for no reason. I am aways nice and respectful. This restaurant's business is good now but treating good customers like this will hurt your business in the long run. I will never eat there again.

Two words: Underwhelming. Expensive…read more Let's start with Underwhelming. 1. Dac's Sweet Tea is from the fountain yet they pass it off as fresh-brewed in-house. 2. The pulled pork and brisket just isn't very good. The brisket falls apart like a roast and the pulled pork has little flavor. 3. I had 6 BBQ sauces and 3 of them were adequate. The Honey BBQ is the best of the lot followed by the Pineapple Habanero and Hot. The Strawberry and Carolina Vinegar is too watered down and the Mustard BBQ is too heavy on the Dijon. They may have been able to get by on Underwhelming but Dac's is going to make you feel like a chump with your wallet. 1. They have a $4 upcharge for Mac and cheese with a BBQ plate. The only problem is the mac and cheese is just ok. I don't understand how the mac and cheese I was given deserved a $4 upcharge. 2. Remember those sauces? Yeah they gave me 2 and charged me 75 cents for each after. Dac's teases you though because they have a truckload of sauces but if you want to sample more than one, they 3 quarter you for each one after. There has to be better BBQ choices here than this Underwhelming and expensive experience.

We've been wanting to try this place for a while and we finally stopped in. SO GLAD we did! We…read morehad the ribs and the pulled pork. The pulled pork was very good. The ribs were great! Also, we're not fans of sweet BBQ sauce, and they had a Louisiana sauce that was tangy and not too sweet. The baked beans were unique. They were a little too sweet for our taste. I believe it had sweet BBQ sauce in them, along with some bacon. Good fried okra as well. The staff was very friendly and kind. The restaurant is a converted old gas station. However, the inside is very neat and clean and decorated well. Another benefit for us is that they played Blues music in the background. There is no doubt we will be stopping in more often.

Got the sampler for a late lunch and shared it among the three of us (we expected to eat light)…read more Was $37. Our sides were sweet potato tots and cole slaw. Given it's double the price of a single meat platter, I expected it to comfortably feed two. On the platter were two solid ribs, a quarter dark chicken, and one hot link which were all solid sharing portions. Brisket which I understand would be one of the more expensive items - was one slice plus a sliver of a dry end attached to it. I'm not sure if that's one slice or a one slice plus what one was counting as a second slice. This was a disappointing mark - I thought about asking the server about whether we should have at least a full second slice. Pulled pork - to me is a much less expensive item compared to brisket - yet a relatively small amount. Not as egregious as the easily measured brisket. Cole slaw - even if it was made in house as opposed a commercial bulk supplier, this is a low cost item no? Small dish. Quality is very good - just a question of the quantity. Tap water here seems filtered for neutral taste. It was a nice day on a quiet Sunday afternoon so we opted to get seated outside on the patio with umbrella shade. Traffic going by was light and quiet. Two servers available during the lull while we were there and the worked as a team to check on us outside.

The wait staff was friendly and very quick to serve us even though there were 6 at our table. It was a nice night and we all sat out on the patio.
