"Okay Mr Glaze! I came in for BBQ as I was craving it. Sat and talked with the owner while my food was being prepared and I was super excited to get my food home just from the smells from the kitchen. This is by far the best in the area. We got rib tips links and catfish. The Bbq sauce is so tasty as was the coleslaw and the portions were a good size. We will definitely be back to try the collard greens and brisket!"
