Absolutely terrible food, completely terrible service. We couldn't even go to the bathroom. The ribs were dry the pulled pork was tasteless, and everything was cold. NEVER NEVER AGAIN.

Absolutely mid brisket. Dry and disappointing. The sauce is great thankfully so if you drown the brisket in enough barbecue sauce it's tolerable. Macaroni and cheese was also very mid. Considering how many people told me this was a good barbecue joint I don't understand what happened here.

Great food really doesn't matter what you order it's all delicious. The man and woman who took my order were very friendly but the bartender is not. She acted as if I was a nuisance simply for asking for a beer. She says she'll get it but then returns and doesn't even ask me if I still want it. She was very dismissive and rude. Wont be comin to dine in if she's there.

Always a must stop when I'm in town. Never have I ever gone wrong with anything I order. Pulled pork, Mac and cheese & of course the spoon bread!!!!!!

Looks empty from outside but actually was rather busy. Service is fast and everything we tried was delicious! Comforting and filling for a decent price. (p.s. the smoked turkey was probably the juiciest turkey I’ve ever eaten)

Sliced brisket was awful because it was tough and not cut properly. I informed the kitchen staff and they admitted it was smoked too long. In addition, I saw two mice in the dining area while eating.

The food was half cooked which is dangerous with pork … both plates we ordered to go as usual. I called because we live to far away to go back
I spoke to the Bar Manager as she emphasized. I explained the ribs were half cooked which, the Burnt ends were half cooked the fries cold and hard after setting under pickles and onions. IT WAS HORRIBLE ‼️. The Bar Manager said bring it back and I told her this food was $60 and now I have to ride from the Westbank to show her. So I ask for the GM she took my number and name and NO ONE CALLED.

I use to love this restaurant but all I can say it CHECK YOUR FOOD ORDER IMMEDIATELY

NEVER AGAIN ‼️⚠️

Just ate here today after a few years from my last trip. Ordered brisket, chicken, ribs, wings, boudin, fries, potatoes salad, and Mac.

The meats were really dry and old. Not sure what the deal is. It's lunch time on GameDay Sunday.

I probably will opt for the other BBQ place in town

Everything here is so good. The burnt ends, pulled pork and smoked turkey were cooked to perfection. Don’t discount the sides either. The jambalaya was a pleasant surprise. The stumbled across this place as it was closer then the bbq we originally intended to go to. I highly recommend trying Central city bbq if you’re in New Orleans.

Excellently seasoned food. The BBQ sauce was not to my liking, but I'm not a fan of vinegar based. But I didn't need the sauce for my food. Prices were definitely reasonable for the amount that you're getting. Staff was very friendly. The inside was cute. The outside was fit for events and live bands. Could be a great hang out spot. And bonus! There was room for parking.
