"Pappas Delta Blues Smokehouse, an 'upscale' barbecue joint that hails from Houston, has officially opened its doors in Plano. The restaurant arrived today at 3916 Dallas Parkway, bringing a lengthy list of whiskeys and smoked Prime briskets to the space. The restaurant is an offshoot of the Houston original, which opened in a suburb of the city in 2017, where it quickly earned rave reviews thanks to the combination of solid barbecue and ritzy touches like table service and actual plates instead of the typical butcher-paper-style service diners will find at the state's other vaunted barbecue joints. As far as the actual meats are concerned, look forward to St. Louis-style ribs, beef sausage with Czech influence, and smoked chicken alongside brisket and sides like creamed corn pudding, mac and cheese, and beans studded with pit-smoked pork. Outside of the smoky options, dishes like Nashville-style hot fried quail, burgers, and salads, are also on the menu. Delta Blues Smokehouse is now open for dinner service starting at 5 p.m. Official hours of operation will debut in the coming weeks." - Amy McCarthy

"Pappas Delta Blues Smokehouse is headed to Plano this fall, and if the name sounds familiar, that’s because it's from the eponymous chain of Pappas Restaurants that includes Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen, Pappas Bros. Steakhouse, and Pappasito’s Cantina. The new arrival at 3916 Dallas Parkway is the first DFW location of Pappas Delta Blues, which is only the second location in Texas behind one Houston-area outpost. Diners will find “sophisticated” barbecue that’s slow smoked in-house daily alongside other entrees like fried catfish, grilled salmon, steaks, and burgers. Barbecue favorites are served with two sides and include options like aged hickory-smoked brisket, pulled pork, smoked Berkshire pork belly, several varieties of sausage, ribs, turkey breast, and chicken. Appetizers like fried green tomatoes, deviled eggs, boudin, and quail done up in the Nashville hot style characterize the Southern-themed menu. A ton of sides that are more elevated than typically found at a barbecue joints are also on offer — think chilled kale with butternut squash, brussels sprouts, and broccolini. There’s also mac ‘n’ cheese, cabbage slaw, and creamed corn, for old school ‘cue fans. The full bar boasts an “extensive” American whiskey selection fueling cocktails like the Frozen Whiskey Smash, and the eatery also offers wine and draft or bottled beer." - Alaena Hostetter

Had opportunity to visit this Smokehouse a few nights ago. The place we were going to had a hour and a half wait to get a table so we looked over the way and noticed this Smokehouse with the parking lot less full then some of the surrounding restaurants. (Having tasted the wonderful cuisine now I was surprised they had a free seat) everything we sampled here was wonderful and perfectly cooked. The wait staff was super friendly and inviting. We were seated immediately. Chris was our waiter and he possessed a encyclopedic knowledge of everything on the menu. We went with most of his suggestions and he did not steer us wrong. Very impressed with this establishment we will for sure dine here again when we are in the area! Also they have a vast selection of Whiskey, Scotch and Bourbon and have some very tantalizing house made speciality cocktails to choose from. Prices were very reasonable for this day and age and I would rate the food and drinks quality above what they are asking for them. So over all very impressed.

My wife and I got a rare night out without the kids and had a gift card from Christmas we had been itching to use. We decided to give Pappa’s Delta Blues Smokehouse a try. We were not disappointed. Our server, Chris, was FANTASTIC! He could answer any question we had about the menu and provided some AMAZING recommendations which we tried (pork belly bites, brisket…YUM) and were not disappointed with anything we ate. Chris was super attentive to our drinks and any other needs. We’d love to have Chris as our server any time we visit and we will definitely visit again. At the end of our meal the kitchen manager, Fonzie, came out to follow up and make sure everything was acceptable and he was a joy to visit with. This has immediately become one of our favorite places for a date night out and we look forward to returning soon.

The prime beef brisket is very, very good! We were a party of 5 on a Sunday eve. The restaurant was moderately busy. Two of our party ordered the BBQ Salad, one with brisket and one with pulled pork. The brisket is the way to go. Other members of our party ordered the Nashville “Hot” Fried Chicken, the Prime Brisket Sandwich, and the BBQ Sandwich with Pulled Pork. The sandwiches feature a very large and fresh bun. Meats are topped with pickles & onions. The BBQ salad comes with a fairly large side of meat on the side, a good option for those looking to limit carbs. Every dish was so good. If we had bigger appetites, we would have tried one of the appetizers, such as the Nachos ‘N Que or Sunday’s Deviled Eggs made with smoked pork belly. For those who like a good whiskey, there are various whiskey flights that look awfully good. The restaurant is blues music themed, with a great selection of blues music to go along with your meal. Highly recommend!

Went for the first time on 4th of July and I was thoroughly impressed. Our waiter Sean was very attentive and kept coming over to ask if we needed anything. I got the Ribs and Brisket combo with fries and beans. The ribs and brisket were tender and flavorful. My son had the Brisket Sandwich, it was huge and he couldn't finish it all. I mixed all the BBQ sauces together and it was delicious. I'll be back!

This place is what I would call BBQ with a fancy, upscale atmosphere! The food was amazing! The service at the bar was excellent and the environment was inviting and clean! I highly recommend the whiskey smash cocktail (not pictured). The watermelon drink was nice to look at but the flavor didn't follow well. The chicken fried steak was the best I've had in Dallas and trust, I've been around town! Great for date nights or to catch an NFL game on one of their 8 TVs at the bar!

5 stars IS NOT ENOUGH! As soon as you walk in you can immediately tell how clean it is and how attentive the workers are. We were sat immediately and our server was Emily, she knew the menu like the back of her hand and we immediately chose what we wanted to eat. NOT ONE THING WE TASTED WAS BAD. EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS! ALSO the silverware was so shiny and clean it looked like it had never been used before! Coming from a former resturant manager......I was highly impressed!

Where do I begin talking about how great our experience was at Pappas Delta Blues Smokehouse, well to start it was AWESOME. This the first time that we have eaten at this restaurant before. Even from the parking lot the decor was awesome. Everyone that we encountered was very friendly and professional. The tables and chairs were very comfortable. Everything was clean. The food was incredible. Wow. We will be returning to this restaurant in the future.

Only my second visit here. Last time I noticed Wednesday nights are ribeye night so,here I am. Plus,I want to redeem my Birthday freebie! For $19.99 you get a 12 oz ribeye,two sides and Parker House roll. In 2024 that's a bargain in anybody's book. The food was excellent and more than I expected. In addition,the Elgin Texas style sausage,Mac and cheese,pork and beans and green beans are all excellent. Worth a try if you haven't... Go!

I can't believe I have been in plano for this long and haven't given pappas a try until this month! Wow! The bbq is delicious and i love the variety of signature sauces they have! I had family visiting from out of town so we ordered the bbq feast which had a little of everything! Ribs, brisket, pulled pork, smoked turkey, chicken, beef sausage, and some delicious pickled onions! Their sides were good too! The mashed potatoes were my favorite, so buttery and full of flavor! No gravy needed! We tried their smoked wing appetizer and pork belly bites, both were so yummy! Hutchins mckinney is still my favorite bbq, however if you want a nice sit down dinner for out of this world bbq, pappas is the place! I came back a week ago with my friends and the food again was outstanding. We also had the sweetest waiter named gordon who was patient with us, explained the menu throughly, and was so accommodating! Half our table ordered catfish and we had one in our party was is extremely allergic to all seafood. Not only did they give the kitchen a heads up, but the kitchen manager came out to personally tell my friend new utensils and cutlery was going to be used to prepare her food to prevent cross contamination! Amazing! The fried catfish is saltwater catfish from the mississippi, and my word is it way better than fresh water catfish. The fried catfish has a cornmeal batter and is crispy on the outside, flaky and moist on the inside! So good! Love pappas, can't wait to come back!

Our first experience here was amazing. The blackened catfish was awesome. My co-worker had the pork belly and brisket. Very flavorful and moist not dry. Andrew was a great server. Very friendly and attentive. We will be back!!

I got the combo meal which had 2 sides and 2 meats along with a biscuit. The biscuit was great and I used it to mop up some of the leftover sides. I tried a few sides and thought they were all great. My favorites were the creamed corn with jalapeno, mac n cheese (had some crackers crumbled on top), the buttered mashed potatoes, and the baked beans. The pulled pork paired well with the spicy bbq sauce and the brisket (this was really my favorite part of the meal) paired well with the sweeter bbq sauce. The blonde ale on tap was also good. The service wasn't bad, but it was a bit slow that night. The food was so good, it didn't matter in the end though.

Not going to lie with all the solid BBQ opinions in the area I was skeptical to give this place a chance but it's a solid option. Met a coworker for lunch and started with the sticky pork belly bites and end though they can be fatty these had just the right amount crisp to juicy pork glazed in sauce. I got the sad salad with a few slices of meats that were as cold as the salad. The true hero was the Nashville hot chicken. Crisp and juicy and a ton of food without breaking the bank. Undecided on whether it warrants a return visit but it might be good for a drink and an app with a big bar in the center... maybe

..... AWESOME!!! GO!!!! ...... Some of the best BBQ in Dallas! Is not a butcher line, rather a sit down restaurant. Upscale nice atmosphere. Here is the food breakdown. Ribs Excellent Texas spice rub profile. Actually softer than most smoked ribs and very large and meaty. The flavor is awesome - a little salty at the first bite but very savory!! Definitely get some! And using the sauce would denigh you of how good they are on their own. (10 out of 10) Brisket Wow!!! Awesome flavor, super moist and soft bark that has a screaming good stronger flavor. No need for sauce - this can stand on its own!! But the sauce will enhance the overall experience. (10 out of 10) Pork Sausage w/ jalapeños and cheddar cheese: Spicy is 4 out of 10. Cheese in s noticeable when you get to it but not dominant. Nice spice profile but not strong - you can really taste the pork and it's really good. Add the sauce for a better experience, again. Overall, a new top 5 for me. Pork & Beans Perfect flavor and brown sugar (possibly some molasses) with shredded pork in it. Medium heat, but really good! (8.5 out of 10) FYI - very small portion, disappointing. Potato Salad Really good, very traditional, not vinegary and again unique. I really like it everything in it is fresh, large bits and crunchy. A new #1 for me. FYI - very small portion, disappointing. Sauce Tangy Texas style with gentle sweetness and a very mild heat (2 out of 10). Really nice and unique. Overall 8.5 out of 10. Definitely use it! Overall a 9 out of 10. I really like this food! Would be a 10 but for the skimpy portions on the sides.

Wow! So much food with a great experience! We came for Restaurant week to try the appetizer, entrée, and dessert. This experience did not disappoint. Our waitress was so attentive, and very patient and very kind. She welcomed us as this was our first time. We ordered an extra appetizer ,the pork belly, which I highly recommend.Our waitress is able to tell us that they slow cook their meat and have a smoker outback. Really large parking lot and several tables to accommodate for a lot of people. Easily accessible as it is right off the highway.

Visited here for the first time during a weekend trip with the family. Was looking for a lunch place within a short distance from our hotel; we were in the mood for BBQ, so Pappas seemed like a good place to try. And it was! Everything we ate here was delicious. Started off with the Nachos N Que, a gorgeous plate of nacho chips topped with pulled pork, cheese sauce, and BBQ sauce. So very addicting. I chose the BBQ pulled pork sandwich and fries. Number one, the bun was so stinkin' tall. A ginormous sandwich - I barely ate 1/3 of it. Very good though, but it was the thick cut fries that sucked me in. I love a thick cut fry, lemme tell ya. I also tried the mac n cheese. It was a perfect single portion topped with a cracker crumble. Not overly cheesy, which was good, since SURPRISINGLY there is such as thing as too much cheese. I really enjoyed it. The pit smoked pork and beans were great as well. Smoky, yummy deliciousness! My husband had the brisket combo with pork belly. He said the brisket was very good, but the pork belly was outstanding. He is a professional pork belly eater, so you know he means it. First time customers get a free dessert. AND, I spilled BBQ sauce on my shirt, went out to the car to change, and then NO ONE acted like anything embarrassing just happened. 5 stars for our server!

Ordered the ribs, smoked turkey, brisket, and cream of corn. The smoked turkey was really good and my kids loved all the items

Turkey Sandwich with bacon an slaw was even better this time. Lots of moist turkey and crispy strips of bacon. BBQ sauce was sweet and spicy. Slaw was top notch. I will definitely be back for this sandwich Bartender was good, was attentive as bar was empty Nice clean place with good music and plenty of TVs to watch games Will be back!!

Our first time here. Great place and great atmosphere. I wasn't expecting it to be so nice inside. I had the Delta Ribeye which was really good but couldn't enjoy anything else do to having an intolerance to onions/onion powder which they use as a seasoning in all the meats and most all sides. If you suffer from Parosmia like myself, this may not be the place for you but there is always the steak to enjoy. I may also try the catfish when I come back in the future. My son had a HUGE burger called the Pit Boss that must have been close to a pound with brisket on it. I wanted that SO bad but...onion powder. The staff and management were super friendly and helpful with menu suggestions for me that were onion free. Will be back.

Yelp
Brisket nice flavor chicken sandwich a bit dry, sausage no flavor, string beans seasoned and cooked well, Mac n cheese not a fan too much milk although they were out of potatoes, no garlic mashed or French fries. Would I come back? No. Customer service hostess Kashe, Riene and Manager Zeke increased rating from 2.5 to 3

Wendy R.

Yelp
Well.....after careful deliberation with my hubby, we've agreed on 3 stars. The food was good enough that we're glad we came for our first time to try it. Now would we come again, no; not by choice. No wow factor with the food and that's what I look for. The best things we ate was the cream corn and the pecan pie cobbler. Everything was pretty good so I recommend you try it at least once so you can say you've tried it. Our server was ok. She did the minimum she needed to do. But we've definitely had much better service at a cheaper restaurant. I like the look of the chairs and tables, reminded me of a retro/throwback diner look but classy bc of the cream color they are.

Another member of the Pappas restaurant family!!! The food here was pretty tasty, the restaurant was kid friendly, and the ambiance was very nice. We came here on a Saturday evening (5pm) for a family dinner. Our party consisted of 6 adults and 2 kids (ages 2 and 6); 8 people total. We did make a reservation in advance just in case they were busy so that the kids wouldn't have to wait too long and wouldn't get restless. We were seated immediately, but the service was slow. The waiter and hostess apologized for the delay of service. There was only 1 waiter serving maybe 8 different tables. He was doing a great job, but there is only so much that one person could do to care for that many people. Apparently one of the other waiters called in and the others who were scheduled to help had not arrived yet. We waited over an hour from the time we ordered until the time our food was delivered to our table. Fortunately, the phones kept the kiddos occupied. Once the food arrived, I can honestly say it was phenomenal. No complains on anything served. Because we had such a big party, everyone got something different and we all shared/tasted the many dishes. My favorite was the boudin and the buttermilk fried chicken. Also... the drinks from the bar were top notch. Not too weak. Yum. I will be back, but maybe not on a weekend where they are busy.

Fatty brisket was great. Nice char on top, super moist, lots of flavor - no sauce needed, says it all. The pork belly was just ok (didn't seem to have much flavor, although very tender). The drier side of brisket was solid and good with sauce. Green beans side a very nice touch for some veggies, enjoyed this complement to the protein.

Mark M.

Great BBQ and chicken fried chicken. The sides are e very good. We had ribs and brisket. The server and management are great. Recommend this place.

Jasmine T.

Yelp
I've been here twice and it was back to back lol The first time I had brisket queso, ribs, chicken, mac, and creamed corn. The queso was was not queso, just cheese with brisket. However, the brisket was so flavorful and abundant. The ribs were huge and I was shocked at the amount of food for the price. The chicken was juicy and went well with the baked potato I had with it later. The Mac was a little salty but creamy and flavorful. The corn could've done without the jalapeño but it was tasty. The second time I had a burger and fries. The burger was HUGE and the homemade fries were amazing. This place is 5 stars and cheap for the amount of food you get. I can't wait to go back!

Korey B.

The beef ribs were excellent paired with the pork tips. I would have stayed longer just for another glass of sweet tea and the last bite of Mac and cheese, but I ate so much I needed a nap.

Definitely worth every penny! The food service and ambiance or top notch. Our server Alexandra was informative and super sweet! We had a decent Pinot but the food is what we came for and they definitely delivered. We had a little of everything since it was our first time! Good decision and we will definitely be back!

The food was so good that it moved my brother to tears! He got in the car and blasted God bless America because of how moved he was from the food! He said he knows Gods real because of this food! I would recommend! Staff was great and the art and vibes were so fun! 1000000000000/10

I hardly ever hand out 5 stars but delta blues is beyond deserving. We're gonna start where my heart lies .. @ the bar. Every typical spirit you can think of with the added touch of dope whiskey you don't occasionally come across (scotch too). The flights are well worth it .. give 'em a go. As far as the food goes .. I haven't come across a miss yet. Being from Texas I'm well versed in the Pappas universe so it's a pleasant surprise to come across this smokehouse .. especially if you love Pappas bbq .. this place is way better. The first 3 times I came here I ordered the ribeye each time .. regular salt and pepper rub .. that's how good it is. The creamed jalapeño corn, fire. The salad, fire (we all love pappadeaux OG ranch .. same stuff here). The wings, fuego. Only one offering of flavor but the dry rub is epic. I've also had the brisket, sausage, the Mac & cheese and the green beans. Next I have the pork belly on my list .. but being a creature of habit it's really hard for me not to jus wanna recreate that first bite each and everytime. Or maybe I'm jus tryna prolong the process so I keep having a reason to go back .. who knows. As far as the service .. I always sit at the bar and I always ask to have the same bartender serve me .. 1 time for Alejandro .. amazing dude. If he ever leaves I'm going to. The vibe is the same you would get from pappadeaux. Very casual n chill. Making a run here is worth every quarter.

We've eaten here many times and it's been wonderful (I get smoked turkey - my husband brisket and ribs) but I've had several experiences at other places lately that make me want to give Pappas a shout out. This is one of the FEW restaurants we've gotten food to go that is JUST AS GOOD as when we eat it in the restaurant. We have had some longer wait times, but our order is right, it's packaged well and it's JUST as fresh and flavorful as when we eat there. (We live 20 mins from there so it's not always piping hot but that's not surprising). Also - I'm not a potato salad fan - but theirs is amazing. It's one of two I eat (the other is my mother in laws ha). Second also- I'm not a huge bbq fan - it's good it's just not usual my go when we decide to eat out - but if my husband wants BBQ, he knows to suggest this because I'll say yes everytime. It's delicious.

Best BBQ in DFW. Hands down!!! Always receive exceptional service from the front door and on. Food presentation and taste far exceeds our expectations! Relaxing and aesthetically pleasing atmosphere. Highly recommend Pappas Delta Blues off Dallas Parkway!!! One of my favorite go-to restaurant Fonzie, Kitchen Manager, has wonderful customer service. The last few times we have been there he has greeted and escorted us to our table and always take time to stop by to ensure we are enjoying ourselves, then again before we leave he stops by to follow up on our experience and appreciate us for come in and extends us an invite to come back. I encourage you to go and enjoy the experience. You want be disappointed!!!

While there are better BBQ restaurants in the area, this restaurant is pretty solid if you want a more typical sit-down type of restaurant. The interior is very clean, and my server was fantastic throughout the meal. I ordered the Prime Brisket and asked for more fatty cuts rather than lean. The brisket was surprisingly good. It was very moist, smoky, and had a nice crust. They use high quality USDA prime beef, and it really showed in the brisket. It wasn't quite as juicy or flavorful as some of the top Texas Monthly spots, but this brisket was still good. The plate came with two sides, so I ordered the cream corn pudding and mac & cheese. Both sides were really good and better than most BBQ places I've been to.

The Food was great! Me and my mom ordered the rib combo w/ brisket and it was enough for both of us to share and still take some home. Service was amazing! The staff was so polite and accommodating and Cam was probably the best waiter I've had in a long time! Their prices are very reasonable. Ambiance was ok, nothing special to be honest but looked clean and new. Will definitely return!

Yelp
Worst curbside service I have ever had in my life. I showed up on time to get my bbq pickup, and I have been waiting 40 minutes in my car. When I showed up it wasn't too busy, only two of us were waiting. Now the parking lot is packed and I'm just sitting here waiting. I called at 20 minutes to make sure they knew I was waiting and they acknowledged knowing I was here and said they would be right now. 45 minutes now since I'm typing this, still only one girl came in 45 minutes with someone food. I will never come back, no matter how delicious this bbq is, total waste of time.

I can't believe I didn't post a review! This place was great. Customer service was excellent from the minute you walked in, and our waiter was very personable. You really can't go wrong with anything here. The food is flavorful and their drink selection is plentiful. I wish I had written this review sooner so I could be more specific, but I do remember the ribs and brisket were outstanding. I'll go back just so I can update this review (and get some more great food ).

My husband and I have passed by this place so many times. We finally had an opportunity to try it. We were a little disappointed. We have always enjoyed the Pappas brand restaurants. This is the first one that just doesn't live up to the name. We had pork belly and the brisket queso appetizers. They were just "okay". The beer selection is not really impressive either. Oh well.

We have been frequenting Pappas Delta Blues for the past several months. But the last few times we have gone we have been disappointed. Last night we ate with some friends and we were celebrating our wedding anniversary. They are running a special on ribeyes. So my friend and I got that special, my wife had a filet and my friends wife ordered a combo type meal. So we enjoyed the appetizers immensely. But when it came to dinner not so much. First my wife didn't get her dinner salad she had ordered. Then my friends wife said that her baked potato was as hard as a rock as it turned out so was mine after I got into it. My steak was a poor cut of meat I didn't even 3/4 of it. The creamed corn looked like it had been sitting under a heat lamp. We did talk to the manager who comped us with dessert but he should have comped me for my meal since I hardly ate any of it. You expect more at a Pappas restaurant because they are heads above most places. I told my wife I am not going back to this restaurant for a while. Just very disappointed.

I was blown off my feet by the quality of the food and the friendliness and helpfulness of the service. First of all, all the food was served piping hot. I've gotten used to restaurants taking short cuts on heating the food, so I've kind of given up on asking for the food to be heated up. No more. Delta Blues served all its food hot and cooked just right. From now on, I'm going to expect the same quality from all the restaurants I go to. The food itself was delicious. The beef brisket literally melted in my mouth, with a delicious BBQ taste I could enhance with one of their sauces. The side dishes were also delicious: glazed carrots and cream corn pudding. Andrew the server was very attentive, very informative and very friendly. He engaged in conversation rather than simply talking at you. The room itself was superb for pleasant eating and conversation. The wood decor lent grace. I believe the ceilings were sound-absorbent so you could converse among yourself. The tables and seating were spacious and comfortable. All in all, it has restored my faith and interest in dining. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

The service was outstanding and the food was amazing. You have so many choices on the menu, there was something for everyone. We ordered the wings for the appetizer, needless to say they were so flavorful that you don't need a sauce. For dinner we shared the fried pork chops, brisket and ribs. The portions were huge so yes we took a bag home. Don't sleep on this place. We will definitely be returning.

The food is inconsistent, it like playing roulette. One thing you can always count on is slow service. I really don't plan on returning. It's a shame, the food was actually good at one time.

** THREE STAR REVIEW ** means, it was ok. We wanted to add another restaurant to our "eating out" list -- it was our hope that we would love Delta Blues as much as we LOVE Haywire. Both restaurants offer similar flavors, pricepoint, ambiance, and location. We ordered the Southern Fried Green Tomatoes ($13.00 appetizer), their famous Prime Brisket ($17.00 entree), Chicken Fried Chicken ($20.00 entree), Tim's Crispy Buttermilk Fried Chicken ($18.00 entree), Mississippi Mudslide (free birthday gift), and a Pecan Cobbler ($9.00). As you can see we tried a little bit of everything on the menu. Our waiter was attentive and friendly but the overall experience did not meet our expectations. The Fried Green Tomatoes was not worth 13 dollars. It was a tiny portion, one tiny sliced-up tomato. It wasn't seasoned (or cooked) correctly, and the goat cheese accents were not a good blend of flavors. We complained, but the attitude was to ignore that comment. The famous Pappas Delta Blue Brisket was four thumbs down for us. We all said at the same time, Dry! Dry! Dry! Not at all what we expected. If you know what delicious juicy brisket looks like, tastes like, you will not be happy with this! The Chicken Fried Chicken, however, was excellent! Juicy, moist chicken, covered in a jalapeno gravy that was to die for. The two sides selected were mashed potatoes & coleslaw. Both were flavorful, fresh, and delicious. This was a generous portion and it earned a To-Go box, lol. This menu item has the potential for bragging rights. Their famous Fried Chicken lived up to its reputation but you don't get $18.00 worth! Pappas Delta serves up a light crispy chicken more like from an air frying rather than deep-fried. I loved that it was prepared this way! The chicken was moist, falling off the bone, light but crispy skin, but no oil everywhere. The portion size was small, you get a leg, a tiny breast, and a thigh. The two sides we selected were a double order of the Cream Corn Pudding with jalapeño. Amazing flavors, consistency, and it went perfect with the fried chicken. It was very good but not the best. It was my birthday so our waiter did offer 'me' a complimentary dessert! I couldn't choose between the Mississippi Mudslide (free birthday gift) or the Pecan Cobbler ($9.00), so I ordered both, lol. I highly recommend that you pass on the Mississippi Mudslide. It tasted like a Sara Lee's Devils Food Creme Cakes, lol. The Pecan Cobbler, however, was very good -- but -- it did not compare to Haywires made from scratch famous pecan pie. We gave them a shot! But, we will not go back.

Came here for dinner they were out of ranch, buns, 6oz steak, and pork ribs. Not sure how you run out of so many staple products, a good portion of the menu are sandwiches? And you have no buns? Seems absurd and obviously poorly managed. When you pay over $200 for a meal with your family, one could expect to have at least 90% of the menu available. We won't be back any time soon that is for sure. If you are out of this many products then post it prominently prior to seating individuals for dinner. We certainly would have made a different decision had we known, you feel a bit scammed.

My friends & I went for Happy Hour & we were very pleased. I had the appetizer wings & the brisket nachos! It was really good for $6.95, definitely worth the drive! I also had the frozen margarita & frozen whisky smash which were strong and worth $8! Our server Pete was nice, attentive & very knowledgeable with the menu! It was happy hour so it wasn't packed which was a good thing! The restaurant had a great vibe! I will definitely be back!

Overpriced mediocre baroque. I usually eat at Pappas restaurants but this was a total let down. The sides were better than the BBQ. I wish I could've written a better review but the food was not that good.

How can you NOT love this place! First the service by Gordon was outstanding. The selection is mind boggling, so many choices. The fried green tomatoes were outstanding as well as the brisket queso. The BBQ salad was huge and amazing. The pit master sandwich, gives a sample of their burger and brisket in one bite of heaven. If you like BBQ do yourself a favor try Pappas.

Wow food was terrible. The taste was extremely bad to the point I threw away most of the meal. Not sure how this place receives 4 stars.

Yum! First off, the customer service was terrific! Our waitress was super! A friendly smile and genuine fretting sure does perk up one's spirits after a traveling! I ordered The Pig sandwich and honestly, it was perfect. I typically have to pour BBQ sauce over pulled pork sandwiches but this one did not need one thing changed! I could only get through half though because my eating skills have slowed a bit. I'm so grateful to my coworkers who treated me to lunch while I was visiting their office!
