We went on a Friday night around 7pm and it took a long time for our food but it was worth the wait. catfish,Mac and yams. The... BBQ fries are delicious! Read more
Not as good as it used to be back in the day. Rib bones barely had any meat. Shrimp and sides were fantastic. BBQ sauce is thin... I remember it being thicker. Read more
I just had a full knee replacement and wanted a good Sunday dinner. I had my son pick me and my sister up some food from Uptown... Bbq. I had a rib tip dinner. The meat tasted like lighter fluid, collard greens were not done, macaroni and cheese was nasty.The best thing was the corn muffins. It used to be good years ago. I won?t eat there again. Read more
The food is good but they have the smallest sides portions in the city.. not cool for the high prices but the Turkey Dressing... (Stuffing) is delicious. It's worth a try if you're interested though. Read more
A very good place 4 barbecue but they do have a lot of other stuff more like a soul food restaurant. They have turkey, chicken,... fish, pork chops and barbecue plus they have all kind of sides. You can get vegetables, macaroni and cheese, green beans allkind of side French fries. I have tried everything and it is good. I bought a rib snack yesterday with a muffin and boy it wasgood.

When I need to get my BBQ on this is my do-drop-in when in the area. They have a vast selection of meats to select from. I only... buy BBQ Chicken and Catfish (fish is fried at time of order, so there's a little wait, but it's all good for fresh hot fish). Isee folks packing 1/2 slabs of ribs and rib tips out the door with the quickness. Their sides are ample; those that I have hadwere fresh, well seasoned, and tasty. BTW, everyone is asking for extra sauce on EVERYTHING, meats, frech fries, fingers andtoes. lol Read more
Catfish was not good or seasoned. Greens had too much vinegar and sweet potatoes had too much nutmeg and wasn't sweet. The rib... tips wasn't horrible but tasted like oven baked. The macaroni and cheese had soft noodles and way too much cheese and butter.Flies everywhere and you better bring your own personal fan while you wait. Read more
My husband enjoys the food as always. Like many establishments these days they are short on help. Although the food is good... their organization on call in orders & walk in needs work. The lobby is almost like being outdoors. The thermostat read 60° Ifeel for the money we pay we & the time spent waiting for the food we can at the very least not freeze while waiting. Justsaying....
