“Best BBQ joint in Tavares that's for sure. My go-to is the single Lunch Express special with Jerk Chicken and baked beans. Their brisket chilli is so good too, packs enough heat to warm your house, plus the staff are really nice. 11/10 experience.“

“Wife and I have been to this location on multiple occasions. However tonight my wife and I were greeted with not only professionalism at the door as always, but also the chef on the steak. My wife and I were there to pick up a to-go order and the gentleman cooking the steak roughly around 6:50 p.m. on May 29th 2026. He took the time to cook my steak to perfection. The only thing I am upset about with my meal is the fact I did not have more cash to personally tip the cook more at this time and show the proper recognition that was needed. I did not catch his name but forever will be a happy customer as long as this gentleman is cooking my steak. I promise you sir next time I am in, your tip will be quadruple with no hesitation.“
