Liz was a wonderful hostess/waitress. She was very helpful in assisting us to make our choices. Liz was able to prove a lot of insight to the products and how they were prepared. I would highly recommend Billiken's. The food was amazing and the portion sizes were perfect.

Absolutely NO complaints!!! I was introduced to this location from a TikTok post and figured I'd try it out for my son's first taste of ribs. I'm so glad I did because now he loves ribs! And he's one of THE pickiest eaters I know. The ribs came of the bone with ease and he raved on about how good the fries were (and trust me, he knows fries😅). I myself enjoyed the Wacky Wednesday Pulled Chicken Sandwich (thank you Heather for informing me about the deal because I was truly only getting my son something until I heard. Figured I might as well try a bit of BBQ myself then).

Amazing burnt ends! Melt in your mouth good. The BBQ Pork was moist and tasty and the Mac and cheese nice and creamy. Our waitress was friendly and helpful as we were only in town for the day.

The food here was decent, though nothing particularly stood out to me; it was all just fine. The service was good, and I appreciated the spacious interior and ample outdoor seating. A significant portion of the outdoor area is covered, providing plenty of shade even on sunny days, and they even have fans to keep things comfortable.

We heard they had a new brisket Mac n’ cheese on the menu and had to go try it for ourselves. It tasted like heaven in my mouth. IT WAS DELICIOUS!! How could you go wrong with Gouda and pimento? I would eat it again and again. The service was awesome and the food came out quick. It was quiet inside the restaurant but we could tell that everyone at the outside bar were having a great time celebrating the 4th with live music!
