The only thing great about this place is the southern hospitality. Our waitress was friendly and warm and an absolute peach! The barbacoa taco was super salty and the brisket and eggs were lazy. This place has a lot of potential to be great, they just need to revamp their menu.

I use to eat here along time ago with my son. I thought I would try it again. The cheeseburger was not very good. The bun was hard and the burger was small but on a big bun. Don't stop here just keep moving down the road. $9.12 give me a break.

Omg. The catfish was delicious. The fried okra was to die for! The green beans and mushrooms were oh so specia! The service will bring me back every time I'm in the local area of Corpus Cristi texas.

Awesome brisket and sausage po'boy. Their beans and potato salad are great, even together (add a lil barbecue sauce to the beans to make them even better). Ask about the peach cobbler...so good it often runs out by end of lunch.

Nice remodel, but obviously not same owners. Brisket and sausage was NOT smoked, it was tender but oven cooked. They label the potato salad as hand mixed, insinuating it is house made, Not 😳 The pinto beans were burnt and had so much black pepper, that is all you could taste. Very sad because we used to stop nearly every time we went to Corpus or the Valley! Never again. Calling this BBQ is false advertising!

Lately I've been coming here for the brisket sandwiches and they were the best until recently. The last times I've tried them they've been really dry. They did to go back to old ways of getting this brisket to being the best.

I like this place. Small little town called Oakville. It's local so you can buy vapes and get a pulled pork sandwich. Just don't drink the water we live on top of a uranium basin.
