“I’ve gotten dinner here twice now and planning on more, fried chicken and stewed chicken are absolutely delicious. Love their dinner rolls, collard greens to die for. Got orders for three people and barely went over $40. If you love your friends or family take them here, and if you love yourself you must go, no life is complete without a visit ❤️❤️❤️“

“Pulled pork and jerk bbq sauce were delicious. The jerk bbq sauce is the best I’ve ever eaten (so far). Customer service is lacking, my takeout order wasn’t received and they didn’t want to fulfill the order. I wouldn’t recommend this location based upon the customer service but I do recommend the jerk bbq sauce.“

“Before you even walk in, the mouthwatering smell of BBQ permeates the air. The service is great and the food is even better, Ilona and Will are super helpful and always going the extra mile! The atmosphere is lively and there are arcade games to entertain after you've had your fill! The menu has something for all tastes, and the beers brewed in-house are exceptional. 10/10, will be back.“

“Nice small place. If you don’t pay attention you might pass by this place. I gave it 5/5 stars because the brisket was over seasoned to get that bark. But was perfectly consistent not dry it was juicy. Cole slaw was right on with the flavors. Fries were delicious“

“5-piece wing is reasonably priced. Fries are seasoned just right, and there was an electrical outlet available in the clutch for my phone.

This place has an unassuming, but cozy sit-down bar with cushioned seats. These small accoutrements are just what a Canal and Bourbon Street wanderer needs for Super Bowl weekend.“

“0n a recommendation from our small haunted hotel we hit MRB for lunch. The catfish po boy was outstanding. Their drink specials were just right and reasonably priced. Two days later, we went back to try the alligator sandwich and some charbroiled oysters also spot Definitely would not call this a tourist trap. It’s like most of Nola, funky, functional and fun. Don’t confuse with Mr bs“

“Amazing food! My family and I went here yesterday during our trip to Myrtle Beach based on some recommendations I saw online...and this place exceeded all expectations!! All of us were beyond satisfied with our meals. Delicious flavors and good portion sizes too! We said we will come back to Myrtle Beach (from PA) just to come back here 😂. Great service, nice atmosphere, and the food is absolutely amazing! We wanted to get photos of our meals but we were so excited to dig in when it came out that we forgot all about photos! Go check this place out and see for yourself.“

Da GM's Smoke & Soul BBQ Food Trucks •
5770 Read Blvd, New Orleans

“This is the food truck that I believe was at the Jacksonville Jazz Festival 2025 because I tried searching for them in Jacksonville but couldn’t find a location. If so, the food was fire!🔥

Hear me when I say (or type), the brisket nachos was a 20 out of 10! Never had anything like it but was thoroughly impressed. Hopefully I get a chance to experience them again soon in Jax.

if not, if I’m I’m ever back in NOLA, I will be sure to visit them.

I didn’t get a photo because they were gone that fast.“
