First time experience ordering and eating at Gators BBQ.
When you walk in there is a small dining area for you to eat and signs for you to order and pick up.
I felt very rushed after I called in my order and arrived.
I saw the cakes and wanted to add the cake to my order(which was done with no problem) but it also caused my potato salad to not get rung up.
I was asked what sauce I wanted but no indication of the sauces available so I just said a mix.
The food was good and had certain items that stood out.
On the chicken dinner you get two sides.
I ordered baked beans and fries.
The fries were good.
Can't wait to try the loaded fries.
The baked beans were ok.
They were not nasty at all and also were not over the top but edible.
My next dinner was the rib dinner.
I chose to get the thick ribs with Mac n cheese and collard greens.
The Mac n cheese was standard and cheesy.
The greens were heavily seasoned with a pepper taste.
Not sure if it was pepper sauce or black pepper but too heavy.
The sauces were a sweet one, one similar to Carolina gold, one similar to regular BBQ sauce, and one that was trash that was very liquid and tasted like vinaigrette with a Worcestershire sauce? The cakes were phenomenal!!! Definitely not sharable.
With my overall visit, I will return.

Wonderful little spot for some amazing BBQ.
The burnt ends were 🔥🔥🔥🔥 the service was outstanding and I can’t wait to get back there for some more !!!!

First time here and we'll be back! The atmosphere was nice and cozy even nostalgic.
The staff makes you feel like you're family and at home. We ordered the green fried tomatoes, seafood combo with shrimp & scallops with mac & cheese & potato salad, baby back ribs dinner with fries & corn on the cob. Everything tasted good and the prices reasonable and the food portions were large and filling. The food arrived hot and fresh even though it seems they were also putting out several large to go orders.
