Yesterday after work, Jan 2026, my husband and I was starving. He suggested chik fil an and that’s when I remembered the BBQ truck across the street that we have been wanting to go to. We both ordered the brisket plate. Ended up paying $60 double what we would have if we just went to chik fila, and let me just tell you that we should have! It looked like they gave us a lot of meat but over half of it was fat smothered in bbq sauce, it was so chewy we couldn’t even eat it. I am so disappointed. We will not be going back and we will be sure to let everyone we know to stay away from here.

Just had an amazing experience at Clyde’s Southern Wood Fire BBQ! The food was incredibly fresh and delicious. What really stood out was the service; the man who helped me was super nice and professional. He even opened up about ten minutes early so I could finally try it out after always passing by. So glad I stopped in today! It’s only 12:24 PM as I write this, and they opened at 12PM, which tells you a lot about their customer service . I’ll definitely be recommending Clyde’s to all my coworkers and friends. Thanks, Clyde’s, for a great meal!

We stopped in here because it always smelled good driving buy. We ordered the brisket and upon receiving it took home to eat. The “brisket “ was in fact chuck roast. Full of fat.not what we paid for. I’ve smoked and served brisket countless times. This was not as advertised. Will not be going back. Be aware. Or if you like BBQ chuck roast at brisket prices go for it. We just there Jan 2026

Clyde’s BBQ used to be really good, so I’m disappointed in how much it’s changed. I ordered the rib plate and wanted yams and greens as my sides, but the meal now requires potato salad and beans, with any other sides costing extra. On top of that, the BBQ sauce on the ribs has changed and isn’t as good as it used to be they should seriously consider switching back. The greens were overwhelmingly soaked in vinegar, with no other flavor coming through, and the ribs themselves had more fat than meat. My friend actually took their food back because their sandwich had so much fat and barely any meat at all. By the time I added extra sides, my rib plate came out to nearly $50, which just isn’t worth it for the quality we received. The customer service was ok.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Cynthia Phillips · Oct 2025

I ordered rib tips but they were out so they offered ribs which was fine. However the ribs tasted like they were boiled not grilled. Clyde wasn't there and the grill wasn't fired up. Not cool and not the taste I was expecting after going there for several years. Costly disappointment.
