Wow. Delishious all you can eat fried shrimp on Saturday! Very light batter. The green beans and collards were very good too! Crazy to think a BBQ place could have such wonderful shrimp, but they do
Really good food. I had the beef brisket on garlic bread with fries. The meat was so tender. There was no sauce but they have there sauces sitting out for you to dip. Please go and support your local bbq places. I recommended it.
This place is the Real Deal! I was in the downtown area of Jacksonville looking for some barbecue for lunch. Luckily for me - I made it here! The food is fantastic and the service is wonderful! Everything I tried I would recommend to everyone. Plain and simple - I will be back with others!
Fred Cotton’s BBQ – Honest Review We showed up mid-lunch on a Wednesday and the place was packed, so we were hopeful. First impression? As soon as we walked in, there was a strong mildew smell that hit right away — not a great start. The outside of the building isn’t exactly inviting either, kind of run-down and honestly a little off-putting. But once you step inside, it’s surprisingly cute and cozy, with charming decorations that give it some personality. As for the food… since it was Wednesday, we ordered the pork chops with two sides. I got a house salad and potato salad. The pork chops were so greasy I could barely eat one — the skin was literally sliding off from all the grease. The mac and cheese was way overcooked, more like cheesy mush than anything else. The applesauce was okay, nothing special. One thing I couldn’t help but notice — it felt like the locals got different treatment. Everyone around us was greeted by name, chatting it up with staff, while we definitely didn’t get that same energy. Maybe it’s a regulars-only vibe, but it didn’t feel the most welcoming. Overall? The atmosphere inside is cute, but the food just didn’t hit and the experience felt a little off. Probably wouldn’t go out of my way to come back.
The food is excellent. The staff was friendly and attentive and best of all they are quick to refill your drinks. The variety in meat is great with all of them a good choice. You can even build your own plate with multiple types of meat and sides. The atmosphere is perfect for a BBQ joint downtown and I highly recommend the restaurant. Groups, kids, eating solo, all are a good choice. The only downside is parking can be hard to find or get during the day around lunch time. Luckily there are street spots nearby and just across the street as well.
