Shi Lee's Barbecue & Soul Food Cafe

This was mine and my husband's first time eating at Shi Lee's and we will definitely be back! I had the half catfish dinner with collard greens and beans and dirty rice. It was by far the best meal I've had! The service the owner provided was top- notch and incredible! And to find out how much he does for the community was a plus! If you're in town and need some good soul food, make sure you stop by Shi-Lee's! 😊

Shi Lee’s is outstanding BBQ. Shi is a hoot, with a wry sense of humor. Ribs and brisket were perfectly prepared. But the side dishes!! I’m guessing there were at least 20 to choose from (though some were not available). I had the best jalapeno beans I’ve ever had. The cafe is small and there were several takeout orders so be patient. It’s worth the wait. We were just passing through but Shi Lee’s Barbeque and Soul Food Cafe might just be worth a long return road trip.

The food was PHENOMENAL! There were 4 adults and 2 kids. Everyone got drinks, total came to $117 but there was so much food!! If we had paced ourselves we could have taken food home….if being the operative word here. I would definitely eat here again!

I'm 54 years old and I had the Friday special which is southern fried catfish. For 10 bucks I I received the best fish dinner that I've ever had. From the fish to the sides and the amazing cornbread. I can't say enough about this place. The gentleman that was running it was one of the most friendly people I've ever met.

The best food I have had in a long time! I had the pork chops, red beans and rice and the cabbage. Lots of food and I ate all of it!! The women were so helpful and patient with our questions. Even brought out an ox tail for us to try (it was out of this world!!). We will be back!
