Went for the mac n cheese and was so disappointed. It tasted like someone who only knew how to make Kraft dinner. Please revisit the recipe. The banana pudding also is starting to look like slop.

Just okay, not great. There are so many better establishments that serve real Eastern North Carolina style BBQ. I got the large barbecue dinner, portion sizes were ample. The barbecue pork was good as was the slaw & hushpuppies. For my sides I chose macaroni and cheese and collard greens. I expected the macaroni and cheese to be better as I was there on a Friday and mac & cheese was one of the featured "veggies of the day". It was a bit soupy for my tastes. Was it out of a can? I don't know, possibly, that's the thing, I just couldn't tell if it was real homemade mac and cheese or not. The collard greens tasted reheated, like leftovers, and were mushy. I wouldn't recommend them. I also got a small bowl of the Brunswick stew and it also tasted reheated, not freshly made. We dined in. The staff was very friendly and the food came out very quickly. If you're looking for a cheap mediocre barbecue meal then you won't be disappointed, but just don't get your hopes up.

Do not get Chicken pastry to go. Very bland, no liquid and little chicken. Not worth drive or money they charge.

The food here is excellent; I love it and have never had a problem. However, there is an older Caucasian lady who is very rude. Also, the bathrooms need to be updated as they are too small.

We had a large family event with food provided by Original Carolina Barbecue. We ordered food based on the number of attendies. The price was excellent and there was a huge amount of excellent food. I could not recommend them more strongly.

Went there for my birthday and enjoyed my seafood platter with penne pasta. I had to take home leftovers which I finished the following day!

Parking: Place is usually packed so we had to park at the bank next to it.
