“Really enjoyed our time here! Katie took great care of us! She was helpful and patient and informative. It was my first time there and I thought the food was excellent! I especially loved the smoked wings! However, I was blown away by the banana pudding! Never had banana puddling like that before and now I'm hooked. I gotta figure out if they ship that pudding out of state 🤣 that might be the best I've ever had! Next time I come back to Birmingham, I'll definitely make time to stop by! A+++++ to management and staff!“

“Gotta say a big thank you to Jim ‘n Nick’s BBQ in Athens, GA. I drove through there, hoping to get the awesome sounding baked potato that is described on their menu. After ordering my kiddo’s chicken fingers, I asked for the potato only to be told they had run out of them for the night. 😞 when I pulled up to pick up our food,  the chef (Matt) had found out that I had really wanted a potato and so he gave me one for free. That makes potato might’ve been part of his employee meal he was taking home. I don’t know but that gentleman made my night.  by the way, the potato is very good, but the service was even better!“

The sides were tasty as well. There are several big name rib joints here in Birmingham that i find average at best. In My opinion they have the best Barbeque in Town!“

KJ and Travis are really the only 2 Black Own Food Businesses that keep me coming back. It's not just about the food it's also about the spirit of the cooks and customer service!!!! I'm tryna diet but I'm craving that shrimp and okra right now oh and catfish and ribs and baked beans!!!!!! ?? I will truly order it all. KJ gone head and do a menu item and call it A Little Bit for this and that for $25 or $30 shrimp, chicken and fish or shrimp, chicken and a few bones ? I come in there being greedy sometimes. It be hard to choose that why I take forever ?.“

I wanted a WHOLE PIECE of fish not chopped up pieces claiming its a 10pc when it's Actually 3 pieces of fish cut up! Spots are wondering why people eat at home more now.THIS IS EXACTLY WHY, YOU'RE CHARGING MORE FOR LESS! thanks for the 13yrs of service I've personally supported to your, food is great but Do better by your people and give us what we're being charged for please and thank you! I did speak on at the location but the attitude was a bit much when I've already paid you for it. Why she mad when it's my money and I got shorted on my food is beyond me but carry on Birmingham AL!“
