Their fried chicken is very good all of their sides are also very good. Their bbq is good . The people that work there are very helpful in all regards to the restaurant. They have a full service bar for those that want to use it . Their prices are very reasonable and you will not be disappointed in them. I highly recommend this place for excellent food and at a reasonable cost it is a fantastic restaurant for a wide variety of excellent food.

We stopped in to help support a fundraiser for an injured police officer. The restaurant was donating a significant portion of each fried chicken dinner to the cause. The food was excellent so we decided to come back the following week. Even though it's a BBQ place, I stuck with the chicken and again thought it was extremely good. I saw other diners enjoying their meals and noticed the generous portions. I'm a big eater and couldn't finish my meal. I forgot to mention that the prices are very fair considering how restaurants are dealing with rising food costs. We will definitely be back!

Recently had lunch and enjoyed it. My chicken tenders were very good; hand-breaded. The breading was very peppery, which I liked, but a child might not. Potato salad was ok, but seemed liked it is commercially-made instead of restaurant-made, so that dish was a little disappointing. The burgers were large and our family liked them. Service was fair, but not fantastic. Restaurant was not busy, but server didn't tend to beverage refills, So there's some room for improvement. My husband has eaten here multiple times, and really likes the spicy polish sausage sandwich, which is huge. Overall, we like Mr. BBQ and will return.

Stopped in for the first time last night with the family. I'll start by saying, this place has some of the best service I've experienced in a while. Server was very attentive and personable. We ordered the ribs and fried chicken plate. Both were delicious! The chicken was fried to perfection and their house hot sauce is some of the best hot sauce I've ever tried. Ribs were tender and drenched in thick sweet bbq sauce. Also, the full rack is really 2 full racks, way more than anyone can eat in a sitting for sure. For sides we ordered green beans, potato salad, coleslaw and beans. All the sides tasted fresh and made from scratch. The ambience and decor is simple and clean, as it should be. Wish they had comfy booths. But, I'm sure they have plans to improve the interior eventually. I'm happy this place is so close to me, I'll be stopping by here often moving forward.
