Very small place, almost missed it! So glad I didn't! The food is so good! If you are in the area, you MUST stop. The service was so fast, and the lady taking our order was so nice! I ordered a rib/chicken combo with 2 sides, also came with a soda. All for $17! They don't just give you a little bit of chicken and a little bit of ribs, they give you full servings of both! The baked beans and green beans were very good as well! I would eat here again!

I had a tender juicy delicious steak with baked potatoe, greenbeans, and baked bean. The steak was cooked to order and every time I come it gets better & better. Although it's a BBQ restaurant I love the variety... they will throw something new on the menu from time to time. The salmon bites are my favorite and those oxtail whew, all Ican say is MY MY MY. This is definitely a MUST TRY restaurant in Savannah. Once you try it you'll become a repeat customer. Family owned and you will feel like family as a customer.

My family and I got the smoked chicken, ribs, the ribeye steak, and some sides. The ribs and smoke chicken were really great. I haven't ever had a BBQ sauce like the kind they had, but it was super delicious. The sauce was thin instead of thick, and wasn't not nearly as sweet as most sauces. The steak was arguably the best steak I have ever had, and surprisingly the bbq sauce they put on it went really well with it. I don't live in Georgia, but I will definitely try to visit again if I get the chance.

Kimberly Fields met me at the door and promised a box of BBQ that make me happy. And boy did it ever. I’ve never been a big fan of Carolina style BBQ but I was told to give them a try Willie in Savanna. I am glad I did. The meat was cooked outside in the back like dad used to do except there pit didn’t have a rotisserie. Ribs had a great flavor and fell off the bone at 1:30 in the afternoon. I didn’t appreciate the homeless guy harassing me for money while I was outside making a phone call but he is seldom around they said. Cole slaw was excellent as well as their sweet and smiley BBQ sauce which is a rarity in the Carolinas.

I had to go try the food here since my brother's girlfriend works here and her family owns it and I am glad to say that it was very delicious my mom and I really enjoyed it! That says a lot since I'm very picky about my food being a chef and all
