“We’ve been to this place twice now, and I have to say that I am impressed. The food is always solid, always has great flavor, and the sauce selection is peak. I also appreciate their establishment. Plenty of seating room including outdoor seating. Also I’ve been to plenty of overpriced bbq spots in the past. These guys prices are very fair for the portions they’re selling. We never leave hungry.

This is definitely gonna be a common go-to for us. Thanks for the great service and food.“

“I have been going to this restaurant for some time and recently I asked for wet lemon pepper wings which isn’t on the menu. Now let me tell you I have been looking for good lemon pepper wings in Wilmington for some time and have not found them. She actually made a lemon pepper sauce for me and let me tell you it’s the best wet lemon pepper I have ever had. You need to try it ASAP. And it don’t just taste good on the wings, try it on the catfish, which she made special for my kiddo. When I tell you that ish hits mannnnn… that sauce is the truth. 💯“

“I gave this restaurant a call asking if The public could dine in due to it being inside the hotel. She said of course we could. l let her know that we were coming from the federal courthouse to do breakfast because we was tired of same old breakfast spot adjacent to them. To make a long story short the staff was very nice. The atmosphere was very peaceful and relaxing. Definitely will be back“
