Great service!! Amazing food ! Music nice and smooth jazz ( up to date) Food very generous portions and fresh! Customer service definitely A1 (greeted when we walked in . She noticed we were a little confused on how the seating work and she jump right in to help with the ordering process.) Restaurant and bathroom both very clean !! Side note we are from Chicago

I got food here last year and was looking forward to eating here again. I ordered 5 ribs that were over $25 and ended up being the toughest piece of meat I’ve had. I purchased old trapper jerky that day and the jerky was way more tender than these ribs. The coleslaw was great. Try something other than the ribs.

First time trying Jazzy’s BBQ and overall it was a good experience. I ordered takeout (did not dine in) and placed my order right when I arrived. The food was ready in under five minutes, which was impressive.
I ordered the three-meat combo with brisket, sausage, and ribs, plus mac & cheese and coleslaw. It also came with a dinner roll, which was a nice touch. I didn’t get a drink, and the total for just the combo was $27.93.
The mac & cheese was a solid 5/5 — creamy and flavorful. The sausage was also 5/5, very well seasoned and delicious. The ribs weren’t quite fall-off-the-bone tender and were a little on the dry side, but they had a really good smoky flavor. The brisket was good.
Since it was my first visit, I tried both BBQ sauces (regular and spicy). They’re not thick, but they’re flavorful, and I definitely preferred the spicy over the regular.
All in all, I enjoyed the food and would definitely come back to try more items on the menu.

Found jazzy’s near our hotel. While I think the food was good, I would give it four stars. The service and atmosphere is what made me give this place 5 stars. As someone who came from NY, I definitely felt the southern hospitality. For other reviews I’ve seen of people saying there was no black representation in the establishment, there literally was today. Overall I will be back to try other food and update my review after I try other meats and hopefully even the cornbread. We had the ribs, which were nice but the bbq sauce definitely elevated the flavor. It also is family friendly, we got enough food to feed our family of 5 (two men three women) and still have at least two ribs left for one of us to snack on later for $50. I liked the Mac and cheese because it seemed more like traditional Mac and cheese in comparison to gooey Mac and cheese that many people expect today.

The food was ok. Rib tips were dry but overall average. The sausage wasn't bad and the sides were good. Nice place to go break bread with friends or a date.
Good BBQ. I stop here most times when in the area and hungry for BBQ. Pricing has gone up over the years but what hasn't? Still fair for the food you get. Check it out.

Great BBQ every time. The place needs updating and they absolutely need to upgrade to a better cleaning crew.

I came to Jazzy's for the first time nearly eight years ago, and I'm really disappointed to say that my recent visit felt like a pale echo of what I remember. Or maybe I see the memories through rose tinted lenses.
The food wasn't bad, for the most part. The brisket I got with my bowl was somewhat overdone, but decently seasoned, and the barbecue sauce was genuinely a great pairing. But the collared greens and the mac and cheese felt off, congealed, and quite bland. Like someone had made it absentmindedly several hours earlier.
But what first threw me off was the girl at the point of sale when I walked in. Like she was annoyed I was there, or I was a nuisance. I get it, everyone's got rough days, but it truly felt like she could not get me out of there fast enough, and even just asking about menu items made it obvious I was a bother.
That said, I hope the restaurant was having an off day. I knew Jazzy's as a place that was warmer. A place where I'd be happy to bring friends and family, without the thought of letting them down with my choice of restaurant even crossing my mind. I'm sure it still has the potential for that, but I can't recommend this place based on my most recent experience.

We tried Jazzy's with some friends tonight. We were taking them to airport and found this little gem. It was located about 10 minutes from TIA. The pulled pork sandwiches were great. The mild sauce had a vingary tang and it good consistency. My pork was cooked perfectly with a nice sweet smokey flavor. Also I enjoyed the cole slaw and Mac n cheese...
Great food! Definitely worth every penny!
