Customer Reviews
Drove 30 minutes across town to try this place after seeing a review on Capo Eats. I must say, I was not disappointed. I ordered to go and was tortured during the 30 minute drive home. It smelled so so good. I got the pulled pork plate with baked potato potato salad and baked beans. I got the ribs with cole slaw and fried apples for my husband. I got their sweet bbq sauce for the meats. Both meals came with fried cornbread like my grandmother used to make. Portion sizes were good. The meats were perfection. I will make that drive across town again. The building is a small non-decsript building that I would have driven right by without my Google Maps. So be careful and don't miss it. I spent $31 with tax for the 2 meals.
Here’s your clean, dash-free review for a BBQ restaurant that celebrates the ribs and pulled pork: Where the smoke tells a story and the meat speaks for itself This BBQ spot is everything you hope for and more. The moment you walk in, the scent of slow-smoked perfection hits you like a promise. The atmosphere is warm and unfussy, built for people who care about flavor more than frills. The ribs are unforgettable. Tender enough to fall apart with a glance, glazed with a sauce that balances sweet and heat without overpowering the meat. Each bite is a reminder that patience and fire make magic. The pulled pork is just as impressive. Juicy, rich, and packed with smoky depth, it’s the kind of dish that doesn’t need a bun but still makes one better. Whether served solo or stacked high, it del
I got the Dailey special, chicken and dressing. It was the driest, tasteless dressing I have ever tasted. The serving was ample, but I could only eat a few bites of it. My dog ate the rest. I have had good food there before, but yesterday was not a good experience.
It’s hard to qualify this as a BBQ joint if the meat isn’t grilled or smoked. The pork was bland and obviously out of an oven, the potato salad was so bland I needed half the salt on the table to eat it. Their fried okra was delicious tho, service is great and genuine, but it unfortunately does not make up for the lack of soul and flavor in the food.
This was ok bbq. Not too special. The slaw and sauce were vinegar based. The mustard potato salad was great. The cornbread was served cool.
