Amazing! The baked beans were so good and the employees were super kind! Except for one.. this one girl I assume she was having a bad day but she didn’t say a single word: I forgot her name but I hope that her day gets better. And it’s amazing! The dining room isn’t that clean but it’s still amazing!

The food and service were fantastic. Pease do yourself a favor and get the ribs. We had cherry cobbler and it was also great.

Food is always great!! Later in the day they may run out of some things, but there is always something else so good to eat!! The Chicken is moist and flavorful, and we love their sauces!! Pork is the bomb! Specials are soo good and the Cherry Cobbler is the best I've ever had!! LoveMonique and her mom.They work hard and will not disappoint you!! Be patient some to go orders are quite large but it's worth the wait!!

Lovely, family-run eatery with good food and good value.Try the"pulled pork melt "All the sides we ordered were wonderful.

Amazing. This is the standard for any and all bbq for my fiance and I. I don't think they can do anything wrong or bad. This is a family owned and ran business. The chicken falls off the bone, the portions are huge and the flavors are out of this world. My fiance had the pork, it was perfect. Both meats left you feeling full and content but didn't cause any gastric distress. The meat was so flavorful and perfectly cooked you almost forget about the sauce. The hot sauce is just right. Fingerlicking good. The sweet sauce has a beautiful balance. Typically I'm all about the sides. But the meat was just outstanding. The sides were so good too! The hashbrown casserole was like....so flavorful and just...yummy! I'm from Oregon and just moved to this area, so it was a brand new dish to me and I couldn't stop eating it. The coleslaw has the perfect balance not to sweet not to acidic and perfectly seasoned. The baked beans were better than any I have ever had. And last but in no way least, the sweet potatoe. Perfection. I'm sad I forgot to get some pie to go. This folks are absolutely rock stars. You can get so much food for such a decent price. Shoot, I'd pay them whatever they asked for knowing how delicious this meal would be. Oh! Don't forget the fried pickles, corn bread and rolls! Cornbread was soooo tasty! And those pickles, now those are a 10 out of 10. Perfectly fried and seasoned with dill! Delicious!

The best fried cabbage any where!! Absolute best staff and the food is delish!!! 10/10 would recommend

Always a great experience. Friendly staff and great food! Like a barbecue and grandmas house

First time we ate here. Nice, cozy little place. A sign posted inside said they were shorthanded today, but the one server present did a great job keeping everything moving. She took table orders and phone orders and collected the checks. She also rode herd on the cooks - checking each order and sending at least one of them back as it was missing items. My wife had a pulled pork plate with baked beans and a bun. I had a small pulled pork sandwich with a side of green beans. Pork was very tasty. Same with the baked and the green beans. They had cake and pie slices for dessert, but we skipped that today. They were also doing a considerable amount of takeout orders today and none of those customers had to wait long.

Hands down the best place near Clarksville. It’s a little drive but totally worth the money and time .

Waited an hour on a 3 piece chicken tender and a burger and fries. Wanted to try the BBQ but was told they sold out. This was at 6PM. Maybe that's a sign the BBQ is good? Never got to try it. Did wait an hour on chicken tenders and a burger to go though. Those were mediocre and not very well priced. And the fries weren't cooked all the way. May change rating I n future if decide to give the BBQ a chance.
