I have never eaten more delicious greens in my entire life. I haven't even tried their actual barbecue yet. The greens alone gets them five stars! Their fried chicken is good too. Juicy and succulent.

I had a lot of fun playing trivia, even though my team came in second place. The food was amazing, the drinks were delicious and the service, as always, was top notch!

I looked up BarB Q on goggle. I chose Ashley's . I ordered a mix combination of ribs and burnt ends and shoulder. It came with beans, potato salad and 2 slices of bread. I ordered fried okra also. I waited about 15 minutes for my order. This place is busy. The service was excellent and the food portion was well worth your money. I had some left overs for the next day. The taste was perfect. It's a cash only operation they do have a cash machine there for you. Just to let you know again either order ahead or wait for little bit. They are busy. But we'll worth the wait.

Long wait but worth it. I guess it's a good thing to wait for fresh, good food. Not a big waiting area and in the warmer months it's hot and stuffy. Order ahead or just wait in your car. No dine in. Only a few delivery apps available.

I made it to Ashley's 15 minutes to opening and I left at 1130. I was putting an order of a pan of ribs..she quoted a price of 47.59 then she later told me that was the wrong price then quoted me another price of 135.59. my total came out to be 144.58. I couldn't understand why it took so long to put my order in and why the taxes was so high. Once the owner came in re did my order and told me it was gratuity. I had no problem paying gratuity..I didn't know you pay gratuity for a pick up.

BBQ, soul food on the weekend, this place is underrated. They have never let me down and the food is always delicious no matter what I order. Picture is of the shoulder sandwich and the catfish dinner. Cash only
