Chef May!!!! What an amazing chef! This beautiful lady knows how to BBQ!!!! First timer and definitely not the last time I will visit and eat her BBQ! We had the Jack Daniel’s full rack ribs and I can’t complain one thing. Plenty of sauce and meat so tender I could eat with a fork.

Wow, what a find. We ate here because it was so close to the airport but it turned out to be one of our best meals of the trip. The lady who runs it is so nice and the cooking was amazing. We went with her recommendations and the corn bread, pork ribs, coleslaw and Southern Brown Tea were amazing.

Brisket was good, but too much sauce. Ribs were dry, also too much sauce on top. Instead of the promised corn bread we only got cheap, white toast bread (paid almost 100$!)

Chef May is the best! Love the decor and style, not to mention the beef ribs were awesome. They’ve also got mini pool tables you can play while waiting.

street tacos! I stumbled onto it by total accident as I was trying to get some boba. The scent of an outdoor stand and picnic tables lured me in; there was no hope of resisting.

I went for outdoor tacos. I’m not sure if it’s also owned by the bbq Shaq, but I was excited to try it. It was good but you have to put your own topings and they were all out and the cashier tried to make me forget my change. So. Instead of getting a tip and a return customer, he’s getting a poor review, no return customer, and no tip.

We live in the area and decided to stop in. Boy am I glad we did! My husband had the ribs and I had the meatball sandwich but honestly I could have just had the bbq sauce it was so good! The mac and cheese and collards were amazing and it brought back wonderful memories! And what can be said about Chef May other than what an amazing cook and a wonderful woman! She treated us like we were family! It was a wonderful experience with great blues playing in the background. We will be back! Thank you Chef!
