I picked up from Xclusive's for the first time last night. If you're ordering for takeout, there's…read morea counter, you order, and then they give you a buzzer that will let you know when your food is ready. The lady taking my order was very friendly. I ordered a pulled pork bbq sandwich with macaroni and collard greens to go. Oh, and some of the Xclusive's punch. The wait was about ten minutes, I think, and the servings were a good size. A lot of people seemed to have ordered turkey wings and the strawberry shortcake, so I might try that next time. As for what I ordered, the collard greens were 10/10. The macaroni was a little sweet, which was interesting, and I think I should've asked for extra sauce with my sandwich. But that's on me. I like a saucy sandwich. All told, it was a good meal, and I will return!

I wasn't sure if what I ordered would fill me up but I had trouble finishing my my pork sandwich with baked beans and potato salad. My coworkers had the stuffed Turkey legs and they were GINORMOUS! Everyone was really happy with their orders. The workers were very friendly and helpful and suggested sides to us. The place itself was ok. You can tell it was a different restaurant first and kinda bare inside with little decor but that's not really a big deal when the food is as good as it was. We will definitely be back to try the Turkey tacos!

Not the best the town has to offer, but I had zero complaints about the BBQ or the quality of the sides itself. The real seller is the quantity of food for the price. I have a large appetite and I considered the SMALL pork dinner a lot of food. I couldn't even imagine the large! And for only $9 in 2025, I can't imagine a lot of take-out options where you can get as much good food. Personally, I'd go again whenever I'm on another cheat day (more likely the $5.50 pork sandwich), but I really like this place for Sumter.

Food Truck Time: Z'z BBQ at Bombshell Beer Company…read more I recommend ordering the Zar B Q sandwich, you will not be disappointed. It's pulled smoked turkey with sweet vinegar zauce and coleslaw and it was so good. It was served with fried chipz too (all menu items are). My husband ordered the turkey gyro and it was good but it just didn't compare to my sandwich. I can't wait to try a few other menu items from this food truck again soon.

These new restaurants coming into this shopping center are bringing some great variety, and flavor to our community, and I hope that you are trying them out. Most are family owned, and along with those that have been there for a while, this could be a great area for family meals on this side of Clayton soon. That would certainly be a welcome occurrence, I believe.

This trip was no different. We had a large group of 16 and it started there. Was told a 2hr wait. If we split in to groups of 8 we'd be seated in 45. Took this option. Actually got seated in about 25 minutes seperately. (A table of 8 that was right next to us was vacant and NEVER got used for the entire 90 minutes or so that we stayed at the restaurant so why not accommodate our group? - strike one) Our waitress I'm told was very chippy with an attitude toward some party members. (I didnt get any attitude toward me) but heard a few people stating how she was answering people's requests and how unpleasant she was. - Strike two. The food. I ordered the meatloaf nachos (which were good). I also ordered the fried pork chops w/ side salad. Loading up on fake bacon bits (like 1000 pieces) doesnt make the salad better. This is a hint to their kitchen. The pork chops were dry and the "red skinned" mash potatoes" (which I do not remember the menu stating that they were red skinned potatoes which would mean SKIN would be present in the mash. Otherwise I would not have ordered this. ALSO, their baked beans.......this was the worst part of the meal. I am expecting some version of beans with a bbq base or similar...instead I got some sort of bean SOUP which was totally inedible in my opinion. Whole meal was trash. Strike three. My 83 year old father said at the end of the meal "worst meal I've ever had". Which I had him repeat to the table just in case anyone thought it was just me. $700 with tip for the quality is a bit much. I will never ever return no matter what my siblings say.
