Good food. Got some take out. Only gripe was my brisket was maybe a tad dry but the sauce was good. Good green beans and cornbread. Overall good food. Would return to eat there again and try the ribs

Our first time dining at Chucks and my family enjoyed the amazing food. We were there for breakfast but my father in law glanced at some of the dinner options and we will most definitely be back. Our server Danielle couldn’t have been more pleasing to our needs.
October 2025
What a disappointment. Went here based on the reviews. Food was bland, did not have any bbq flavor to it, and our 3-meat sampler order was made wrong. The beans were also bland. The server was good and attentive. Maybe we just had a bad cook that night, but we will not be going back.
