Seriously, the flavors did not mesh or complement each other in any way. The bread on the pulled pork sandwich was soggy, falling apart and getting your hands covered in barbecue sauce anytime you pick it up. In fact, the only thing that wasn't soggy was the cornbread, which was dry as hell, which is strange because cornbread is supposed to be a little soggy. Their side items are atrocious, at least the meat is tender and their barbecue sauce is sweet and tangy. Eat at your own risk.

Definitely the highlight of the meal. A couple small things kept it from being a full 5 stars: the mashed potatoes came out without gravy, and the cornbread was a bit on the dry side. Not deal-breakers, but worth noting. Overall, the flavors were good, the portions were fair, and the service was warm.

I was generous and rounded my review up to 4 stars but a 3.5 star review is more accurate of this restaurant. The restaurant is clean and bright, has plenty of seating, rooftop outdoor space, and a private parking lot. The staff were friendly and attentive and were happy to give recommendations on what to order. I ordered the two meat platter picking brisket and Arkansas brisket (burnt ends). Food came out fast and was fresh. All the meat was wonderfully cooked (having lived in OK and TX I am particular about bbq). I would have liked a little more "bark" on the brisket but that's a personal preference. The MD baked beans were one of my sides and they were impressive. Good flavor with some spice to them but they did have ZERO smoke taste. The Mac and Cheese also had ZERO smoke taste, was not hot, and lacked the creaminess I was looking for. I would not recommend the Mac and cheese. Corn bread was dry... no surprise there. In summary - the meats are good, the sides are hit and miss. I would like to see them offer a 3 or 4 meat meal option so an individual could really sample the menu.

They had some good soulful music playing in the background, and it gave off a real welcoming, at-home type of vibe. I believe the owner took my order, and broke everything down for me, which I appreciated. I ordered the fish and shrimp. The fish was very good and well-seasoned. The shrimp were jumbo, fried golden, and had a lot of flavor. Portions were solid -- I didn't even finish everything in one sitting and had some left for the next day. They also had a frozen fruit punched lol. That was a nice touch and fit the whole vibe of the place. Not a sitting area but this is a place you call your order in before you get there and take it back to the house. Overall, I was very pleased with my experience. If I'm back in the area, I would definitely come back and grab another plate. If you're looking for some good seafood (and more), this is a spot worth checking out.

It's carry-out only and located on the top of mini hill with some auto repair shops surrounding it. Parking was a bit stressful, but the promise of good food made it worth it. The menu was pretty straightforward, and we got our food after a short wait. DINNER: WHITING - 20 + two sides: mac & cheese, coleslaw The fried whiting fish was thin, but perfectly crispy (even after a 20 minute car ride) and well-seasoned. Each bite was flavorful. The mac & cheese actually tasted 3D, unlike the bland, powdered cheese that is used at most places. It was on the thicker and chunkier side, the more I ate, the more addictive it got. The coleslaw was very refreshing and not too creamy. The portions were large, and my friend and I were full after sharing the platter. BREAD PUDDING - 4 This was fine, but not out of the ordinary. Probably wouldn't get it again. Overall, this is a hidden gem that is worth going to. I was worried the fried foods and heavier sides would irritate my stomach's sensitivity, but none of that happened here! Will definitely be back for other entrees and sides!
