Satchmo's offers delicious barbecue food, with standout dishes like tender and flavorful ribs and mouthwatering chicken. The homemade BBQ sauce is a highlight, and sides like Cajun tots and creamy potato salad are also delicious. The ribs are highly praised, with many customers calling them the best in town, although some note a change to St. Louis style cut. The brisket and pulled pork are also considered very tasty, and the blackened fish is excellent. The jambalaya receives strong approval, while the gumbo based on brown roux is less appreciated by some. The shrimp po’ boy is highly recommended, described as the best in years. The mac & cheese and baked beans remain favorites, with the mac & cheese praised for its crumb topping. The tater tots are exceptional, and sweet potato fries are good but could be saltier. The corn bread continues to be a pleasant surprise, adding to the cozy and inviting atmosphere, which makes it a great stop for travelers. The place is tucked into a small strip mall, with low lighting and jazz playing softly, creating a comfortable vibe. The service is warm and friendly, with staff offering spot-on recommendations. Some dishes like the catfish are highly rated—considered the best fish ever, perfectly seasoned and flaky. The atmosphere is smooth and relaxing, reminiscent of a jazz soundtrack. While the gumbo may fall short for some, overall, the food quality and generous portions make Satchmo's a popular local spot. Visitors often leave satisfied, finding the flavor worth the price and enjoying the small but well-made menu.
