The Setting: A newish strip mall, but, the restaurant is fairly large in size with plenty of indoor seating and a covered outdoor patio. You order fast food style, but, one of the staff delivers your food to your booth.
Staff: Friendly — And, the management is likely to wander around and ask if you enjoyed your meal.
The Food: Low Country barbecue, obviously, with a full assortment of ribs, chicken, pulled pork, pulled beef, pulled chicken and barbecued shrimp. The two sauces offered consist of a tomato base and a vinegar sauce… both are delicious. But, I especially enjoyed the peppery bite of the vinegar based sauce. There is also a large selection of sides including: Chicken perlo, collard greens, brunswick stew, mac & cheese, fried okra, potato salad, coleslaw, fries, baked beans, corn on the cob, and green beans. And, for dessert their pecan pie is a must served warm with whipped cream.
The Stars of the day: Their pulled pork, pulled beef and ribs are all equally delicious. Chicken perlo and collard greens were the real stand outs. The chicken perlo was delightful consisting of a fluffy peppery rice dotted with sausage and pulled chicken. I’d happily eat a bowl of this as a meal. And, the collard greens just might be the best I’ve had in Georgia. The collard greens were mildly smoky, tender yet firm rounded out by just the right amount of vinegar (a gentle splash) and a good dose of spice. The pecan pie also deserves attention with its generous amounts of brown sugar and molasses. What a great way to end the meal!
Verdict: Delicious food in a casual setting… I’d love to see a chain of these across Atlanta!
