    Shrimp Alfredo
    A'Miaya B.

    Food was delicious, shrimp pasta was delicious. Pick up was super easy, and the employees were helpful. Inside the establishment was nice and comfortable!!

    Sam J.

    This was my first time actually ordering online and picking up food from The Licking. My friends and coworkers have ordered food and I wanted to find out for myself if the items/ food were as great as they describe. The cashier was excellent as she seemed to handle the short line of customers waiting to order. The atmosphere and lighting inside the restaurant was cozy and inviting . I couldn't wait to make it home to enjoy my food; shrimp, macaroni and cheese, and broccoli . I also ordered shrimp and fries for my teenage son.

    Famous Mystery Drink (Large)
    Rikka B.

    I guess I expected more being that it's Dj Khaled's spot & it's definitely overhyped. The food was a little bland, we had to ask the host for salt and pepper to add to fried broccoli and conch. Definitely need to start seasoning like our ancestors in the kitchen with us, we need more flavor and spice. Collard greens weren't that great. Wings were fire. Candied Yams were the best! Fried conch was too chewy and bland. Fried broccoli was a first for me and wasn't bad, just needed salt and pepper to flavor it up. Mystery drink was super sweet but good. I will try again to try other things and the other locations.

    The food is yum, I've only went to the location in person once and it was seriously packed and me and my friends were waiting FOREVER, other than that it's great. The reviews about the pasta are correct. I've ordered it about 3 times and each time it tasted completely different. It's a big serving so when i microwaved it the next night the noodles were swimming in oil, like literally i wish i had a picture. Here are 2 pictures of the same pasta, they looked different and tasted completely different as well. The wings are also so super gud but this restaurant is super inconsistent

    Appetizer Mac and cheese
    Doug R.

    The Food : 1.Conch sampler - Way to gummy ,but nice flavor. 2. Chicken wings sampler -12 wings - Just ok . The fingalicken sauce was good . 3. Mac and cheese appetizer - good. 4. Mystery Lemonade Drink - very good . Total: $32.00 Overall : We decided to come here after looking at the reviews. And most were right the service is ok and the staff definitely need to smile and show they at least enjoy their job ,because if you love your job your quality of work/food shows . We weren't totally amazed by the food and the expensive price for the quality given. Work on quality, even if we had a small amount if the quality was good we definitely would pay extra .We definitely will come back to try the other dishes and give it another shot ,they may have had an off day .

    Chicken Alfredo
    Jewonda L.

    Food was great. Extremely saucy just how I like it! Giving 3 stars as I'm still upset they overcharge when ordering online so I only go here if I order in person or a simple tray like chicken Alfredo. If you order a meal online that requires you to pick your sides, you will be charged additional for each side that's already included in the base price. Ridiculousness!

    Charles J.

    I have had the Fried Conch dish TWICE from here and it's INSANE. When it's time to eat junk food, it's hard to say no to coming to The Licking. Oh, and bro... BRO... the yams are ridiculous. Listen this isn't a safe place to visit if you just did a round of cardio, make sure you hit the weights first as you need to be in severe carb deficit for this to even make sense. Now if you don't workout at all, then I guess by all means do what you gotta do! Either way, I would highly suggest the Fried Conch. Now since I've had that twice, the next amazing pick up I'll be getting from here will be the fried shrimp & wings with more of those yams!

    Super sweet and nice !  Best cashier Jimlynn was so sweet she deserves a Raise!$$&

The restaurant seats more than 50. It's sleek with lots of black and red (to match its name). Except for one other table, it was practically empty on a Wednesday evening. Our first waitress was friendly. She brought our beverages and took our orders. After that, we got a different young lady. She also was cordial. (But got a bit testy when I went to find her so we could pay the check and leave.) We got the smothered chicken, smothered pork, fried chicken, three beverages, and two desserts. Let's start with the desserts. The peach cobbler crust was a bit thick and the peaches tasted like they were from a can. The red velvet cake was mediocre. Definitely not specially made. Now the sides. The corn bread was perfect. The red velvet corn bread was a treat. The greens were good. The rice was soaked in gravy. The yams were way too sweet. The entrees were the standout. The chicken only comes in wings. Nevertheless, they were seasoned and fried well, had a light breading, and were meaty. The pork chops were moist and savory. The smothered dishes weren't really smothered and could have used some more gravy, which lacked onions. But that didn't stop us from thoroughly enjoying them. Dinner for 3 with 3 beverages, 3 entrees, 2 desserts, tax, and tip was about $110. We hope to return and try the catfish, the turkey, and the liver and onions. P.S. A small group came in while we were eating and one of the diners was vaping. Isn't that illegal in restaurants? I was hoping the management would stop him. But he was there for about the last 15-20 minutes of our meal and continued to vape a few feet away from us.

Everyone who spoke to me looked me straight in the eyes. To a soul each person was polite, friendly, and helpful, and personable. Honestly, I haven't been treated like this in a restaurant in ages, maybe ever. But that was just the beginning! All guests are offered complimentary lemonade, and trust me, you want it. It's yummy. I had thought I'd just grab to-go, but when the staff asked and I looked around at the rustic homey setting, I decided to stay. So glad I did! As I would discover food like this is best enjoyed with other people around. Plus it was a pleasure to see how the staff treated each diner and delivery driver with respect and kindness. After some time with the menu, I decided on Brisket and Two Meats, ordering mixed brisket, pork, and chicken. It came with fried cornbread and two sides. I wanted to try more sides so in addition to potato salad and collard greens, I ordered black eyed peas, and sweet yams. Good heavens what a delicious meal! The brisket was so tender and moist. Truly the best I've ever had. The pork was chunked up and very tasty. And the chicken had a great char. Once I'd tasted everything, and realized it could all stand alone with no sauces, I added the bbq sauces. After all that's what I came for, and wow did Lickie Stickie deliver! One bbq sauce is a red sauce with wine - insanely good on the brisket, and the other is sweet and tangy with mustard - delicious on the chicken. Both are perfect! The pork could go either way. I liked the red on it. The sides were all tasty. Collards are a favorite of mine and these were quite good. The yams were delightful. The potato salad was good. The food was a very big portion. I ate til I was full and took home two very full containers of food. My first bite of the evening was the black-eyed peas. It was my first bite and my favorite bite all evening. Now, that in no way diminishes the utter deliciousness of all the rest of Chef Lynette's cooking. My eyes repeatedly rolled back in my head this whole meal., But it does tell you how much I loved those black-eyed peas. They had okra and turkey in them and they were beyond excellent. Food like this only comes from love. Go get ya some!

The love and light…read morethat lives in Chef Juliette truly trickles down through her staff and shows up in every detail of the service. No matter when I visit, it's always a warm, hospitable experience--honestly reminiscent of The Ritz-Carlton. Surrounding businesses could learn a great deal from them. I first met Chef Juliette during a visit from DC in September 2025. My best friend introduced us, and immediately I felt the love of a mother and the passion of a seasoned chef who genuinely loves what she does. And that passion? It translates directly through the food. A few weeks ago, I was back in town visiting again, and the energy was exactly the same. We stopped by to pick up a catering order for an event, and Chef Juliette sent us off with pork chop sandwiches so big--and so good--I barely touched the catering food that day (thank goodness for to-go boxes and a freezer). I was able to bring back BBQ chicken, ribs, and the "Turn It Up Rice"--which is out of this world. Perfectly cooked rice layered with crisp vegetables, shrimp, chicken, and brisket... smoky, flavorful, and such a creative spin on fried rice. Then, the day after, Chef invited us back for a VIP experience--and when I say the love is real, y'all... it's real! She prepared a savory seafood étouffée enriched with shrimp and lobster, served over creamy polenta--an elevated take on traditional shrimp and grits. Paired with fresh-baked buttermilk biscuits, sausage from her brother in Georgia, and perfectly crispy bacon... everything was divine. The kind of meal that evokes emotion--the kind that makes you feel genuinely cared for. The restaurant itself feels cozy and welcoming--rich with history and personality. Every time I visit, I discover a new layer of her story which is told along the walls and decor. Chef Juliette is truly something special. If you're ever in the Pompano or Fort Lauderdale area, do yourself a favor and visit Lickie Stickie! And don't leave without trying the baked beans and black-eyed peas--Chef puts okra in them, and I don't want them any other way ever again. Outstanding.
