    Smoked bbq sandwich and fries
    Felicia F.

    By far the BEST Turkey bbq in the city. Food is ALWAYS hot and fresh. The seasoning on the fries should be put in a jar and sold. They are a food truck that you definitely want to check out! Thank me later.

    Well, they've officially moved up to a Food Truck. Today was their grand opening and it was every bit of Grand. Same great food plus their new Hawaiian Turkey BBQ flavor. It was sweeter than their other 3 flavors yet just as tasty. I'm greedy and a little indecisive. So I usually ask them to split it, half Jerk Turkey BBQ (My Favorite) and half usually Cajun Smoke Turkey BBQ (but the Hawaiian might be the new other half). Make sure to get there early. They make a lot of Food, yet they usually serve A LOT of people. Sadly, they may run out of your favorite side (mine are green beans).

    Jerk turkey Q

    How Sweet it is at Sweet's Turkey BBQ! I am so far behind on getting my review out for this place, as I definitely visited during football season. The NC A&T Aggies had a home football game when I came to visit, and the drive thru line for Sweet's was spilling out onto Eugene Street! They call themselves the official Turkey BBQ of A&T Homecoming, and I can see why. Aggie pride was all over this place! I got a couple loaded plates to go, one spicy cajun turkey Q with slaw, Mac n Cheese and green beans, the other the jerk turkey Q also with Mac n Cheese and baked beans. The turkey was amazingly well cooked in both, but I definitely had more affinity for the Cajun Q as I really liked the spice. The sides were delicious, particularly that super cheesy mac n cheese. Green beans were that southern style pork cooked deliciousness. Slaw wasn't anything to write home about, just basic slaw. If I could make a recommendation on that, it needs to have a barrier between it and the meat for transport. The meat has so much juice in it that putting it in the same section as the slaw just creates a mess. Maybe a small container to go in the take out box, or some wax paper to insulate it a bit? In general, as the name implies, it was a pretty sweet experience!

    This pop-up style restaurant is definitely one of my Triad favorites! Their Turkey barbecue is ridiculously good. Their food is completely pork free. I especially love the Cajun bbq and my husband loves the Jerk. We've tried all of their side and none will disappoint. However, I especially suggest their Mac n Cheese and Green Beans. And let me tell you about their cobbler!! Their Peach Cobbler belongs on its own pedestal. Simply delicious. Their teas are also really good, southern style, but not too sweet. Sweets Turkey BBQ actually catered our wedding rehearsal dinner last year as well. We thought it would be a safe option since several of our guests have dietary restrictions. They were on time, friendly and professional. Our guests are still talking about Sweets almost an entire year later. Notes: I highly recommend following their IG page (SweetsTurkeyBBQ). They'll post their weekly menus, schedules, and specials. Also, they only take card or cashapp (no cash). They keep the line moving quickly but it helps if you write your order out before you get there.

    This is the best Turkey BBQ in Greensboro NC! It is moist and juicy and seasoned to perfection! The sides are a must get too from the rice and peas, to that good ole mac and cheese, to the baked and green beans! Man, this was an absolute taste buds party! And don't forget about the lemonades! My goodness, one of the ones I received apparently had been in the freezer and was partially thawed out, but those icy bits made it even better. I will definitely be a regular customer. Oh yeah, there are different flavors of the turkey bbq such as Cajun, Smoked, and a new flavor Jerk! If you like spicy, get the cajun. You like jerk flavors, get jerk. Smoked is the bomb too! My favorite, the JERK!!!!! Winning all the way around with these nice folks! Find them on Facebook and IG for the menu!

    I ordered turkey wings and these wings look like chicken wings, I can refer them

    I ordered two turkey wing and I literally thought they gave me two chicken wings. I can in good faith refer them to anyone this is really ridiculous for the amount they charge​

    MAC, Green bean, coleslaw. and Cajun BBQ
    Rachel S.

    Excellent sides and deliciously unique BBQ! I tried the Cajun Turkey bbq and my husband had the Jerk bbq. They were both so moist and full of flavor! I don't know of any place like this where you can get different types of turkey bbq, or even a local place with turkey bbq instead of pork. The MAC was so good and buttery. The green beans were amazing and tasted like nothing I've had before. If you want to try something new, with generous portions, great pricing, and unique flavors, you have to try Sweet's.

    Jerk BBQ, mac n cheese, peach cobbler.
    Alex P.

    Stopped in to have BBQ and beer on a hot day (they were parked at Oden Brewing). This was not my first experience with this trailer nor will it be my last. The Jerk Turkey is my go-to: doused in super- flavorful sauce with heat that builds just right. Highly recommend peach cobbler and mac and cheese as well. Mac was a touch soft today, but still cheesy, delicious and seasoned perfectly. Cobbler is just tasty, with notes of cinnamon and vanilla permeating. Fries and slaw are ok - would tend toward choosing the homemade sides. Bonus: the 4 year old, who can be a touch picky, loves everything here.

She went above and beyond to make our order when she could have easily said no. While we waited, she was incredibly kind and welcoming. The conversation was wonderful, and her genuine care for people shines through in everything she does. It's rare to find someone who treats customers like family, and that's exactly how we felt. The world needs more business owners like her. Her kindness, professionalism, and willingness to help were a true blessing from God. Please support her business--you won't be disappointed!

The owner immediately greeted me with a warm smile and hello. I ordered the whiting fish with cabbage and candied yams, plus a sweet tea. The fish was incredible, tender and flaky in the inside, perfectly seasoned crunch on the outside. The cabbage reminded me of "home," my elders who have long since passed. Just delicious! The candied yams were delicious, flavorful without being too sweet. To my surprise Miss Kim brought potato salad with my meal and it was incredible. Again, it was a reminder of the potato salad I grew up with. Perfectly cooked potatoes, well seasoned, all the right ingredients. The location is convenient, the restaurant is just beautiful. I like the decor and the gospel music was a comforting way to eat my lunch. What I loved the most was the fact that Miss Kim brought out a home cooked meal. Yes, it took a while for the food to come out, but that's to be expected when someone is cooking a made-to-order meal. It was 100% worth the wait. I will absolutely return next time I'm in Greensboro.

For starters our server Zipporiah sat us near a large family. Easily 12-15 members. Maybe she thought they were about to leave but they were still seated and chopping up as families do. Me & Bae didn't know those people. The restaurant was not packed. Three places I won't sit in restaurants: by the kitchen, by the bathrooms and way in the back. Otherwise I let the servers do their job of balancing the customers. I should have asked for a different seat. Our lunch date was just okay but having to talk to each other over that family wasn't fun for me. Literally one table over and yes booths were available. The other reason for the four? Being rushed. Bae eats like he's running out of time. I eat much slower. I'd barely gotten the sour cream and butter in my loaded baked potato good before we were asked if we needed boxes. To which I replied that I was still enjoying my meal. Now if there was a reason for us to be rushed then communicate this. I've had many a server say that they are about to leave or shift change is happening so they ask to cash us out before they leave. If the restaurant is slammed and we're just camping out then it makes sense to try to turn the table quickly. I guess we weren't eating fast enough because Bae noticed a slight shift in her attitude towards us. The food? Banging! We ordered fried chicken wings as our appetizer. Talk about a speedy delivery of hot chicken wings! So good! Fish was friend to perfection. Why lemon pepper? I wanted to do something different. Zipporiah was very accommodating along if I wanted just one piece with lemon pepper. Also, our order did come out right. Will we go back? Absolutely. This place is a Greensboro staple!

My initial introduction was when they were located in Stock and Grain Food Hall. I had wanted to try them for a while and luckily I was invited to a Yelp Event where I was able to sample some items. In all fairness, I absolutely loved the service but maybe it was an off night but at the time I wasn't a fan. But as some months passed, they are no longer in Stock and Grain but in a food truck in High Point. I highly suggest following their Facebook page for dates and times where you can catch them. The service was still wonderful and the food was really good. The sweet potato cornbread is one of my favs and the chicken wings and catfish bites were fried to perfection. I love collard greens but do understand, everyone makes them differently. My family is from eastern NC so we make ours savory, theirs have a little sweetness to it. I don't mind it but this time around was so much better, it was very well balanced. The mac and cheese was delicious as well. Although not pictured, do check out their Russian tea drink. I felt very nostalgic and I have no other words but it was great. I try to savor it when I get some. I wish he sold them in half gallon jugs because I would buy it. That's how good it is. They have other items like Rasta pasta, oxtails, pork chops, and turkey wings. I can't wait to come back and try more food. Give them a follow and check them out. You won't be disappointed.

At this point, they know my face and my favorite bartender Dame is usually there. The atmosphere is lovely and most times they have jazz or R&B playing. Like I said before, it's always at a good volume and never too loud. I haven't been for brunch in a while but when I go on Thursdays, they have a special for whiskey and bourbon and also wine. It very laid back, however, I still suggest making a reservation as it came get busy out of nowhere. I've seen it happen. The last time I went I tried the Red Snapper bites which came with rice, Caribbean cabbage and olives. I can't stand olives (its a texture thing) but it wasn't on it at all, it came on the side which I thoroughly appreciated. Everything else was spectacular. I also let Dame make me a drink and I often will say "Bartender's Choice" which means they can create whatever they want based on what flavor profile I like. I'm not sure what the drink was but it was delicious and strong. I only needed 1 that night. The service is always great and it feels like you're catching up with old friends. Although, not pictured, I have tried the shrimp and grits, fried cauliflower, and crab dip with toast points. All are very good. This is one of my favorite spots that feels like my own version of Cheers. If you are in the area, check this place out. Wonderful food, wonderful vibes, and amazing staff.

The small size and simplicity of the menu made me a bit hesitant at first. For starters I had their fried shrimp with a speciality sauce that didn't taste like anything and some dinner rolls with honey spread on them. The shrimp was actually more enjoyable by itself, which is surprising cause you'd hope the sauce would be an addition to the dish. But what really stole the show was the entree. First the portion size was well above what I paid. The plating really stood out. We ordered the Ox Tails and the Pasta. The Ox tails were Huge to begin with, not only that but they were actually really good. I can't remember what sides were had with it but you can choose your own. The pasta had a nice spice to it, the dish was presented well and had more than enough protein spread throughout. I also didn't have any issues with service or wait times. I would definitely try this place again and see what other appetizers they have to offer, because this place was worth it.
