The service was impeccable and the food was really good we had a meat tray that came with a yummy pumpkin corn muffin, two glasses of water, and a cocktail from the full-service bar. We came about an hour before closing so they were out of ribs, which I heard were the best in town. If you want the ribs I recommend that you come early. The amazing Kelly took our order and assisted us in making our food choices. The food came out quickly. The food was hot and seasoned to perfection. We cleaned our plates. I highly recommend this place. This is perfect for a date or family night. You can dine inside or sit on the lovely patio.

I would definitely try this BBQ again. The staff was friendly and attentive. The pulled pork was tender and good with the vinegar sauce added, and the smoked wings were great. The BBQ chicken had a good smoky flavor and it was juicy and tender. The collards were delicious, but I could have done without the large strings of pulled pork in them. Coleslaw was traditional and sweet and the fries were like good fair fries. This place is worth another visit, I just wish they had brisket and okra!

Based on the previous reviews I tried it out. Sam Jones did not disappoint. The servings were plentiful and the taste was fantastic. I got the chopped pork, bbq chicken, and paid extra for the ribs. Sides: slaw and mac&cheese. And I had to try the banana pudding. Oh My Goodness. It was all delicious. Tender moist. The ribs were not fall off the bone but they were delicious and definitely not dried out. As you may or may not know….their cornbread is kind of a house specialty. It’s thin and very dense. I didn’t care for it but my lunch companion. So it just comes down to a taste preference. I would most definitely return!!
