“My green beans and sweet tea were delicious. My beef brisket sandwich was all fat. I threw most of it away. I ordered the BBQ pork egg rolls and did not receive them but paid for them. This was a drive thru order. I should have made sure everything was there before popping back on 95.“

“I think Shane's is the greatest thing to ever exist fight me about it. The atmosphere is amazing with the jerseys of the local high schools and all the achievements from over the years its perfect. Now the food has had me in a chokehold since I was a itty bitty boy they have the best chicken in the state of Georgia best Mac and cheese in the state of Georgia matter a fact it's the greatest thing in the state of Georgia. Now the service is short and sweet you order and if you can't finish your meal because like I said it's the greatest thing in the state of Georgia you go up and get a to go box I've never had a bad experience with the workers there and I would choose it over any drive thru. Yes my writing is sloppy no I do not care I just wanted to share how much I love Shane's rib shack“

“We always have great food and service!“

“I went rather late to dinner and when I got there, it took a good little while before someone greeted me and then seated me. Then once I got seated it was a little while before my waiter showed up but he was sweet and took good care of me thereafter. The food was excellent as always. The atmosphere was a little bland. There were a lot of large groups there tonight but they weren't noisy. They just took up the staff's time, energy, and attention. I don't normally go this late in the evening so I don't know if this is normal or not. I would go again earlier in the evening.“
