The fish sandwich, banana pudding was on point, go try the Smoked Turkey it's delicious (and I don't like Turkey) but it's good and spicey..
Been coming here for years for the great ribs so I had to try the new weekday breakfast. Fast, delicious, and well priced. I will definitely be back for breakfast!
This is my first time ordering from Shababy's Rib Shack and I was not at all disappointed with the food or the service!! I love me some ribs and am pretty picky when it comes to my food and how it's cooked. This little rib shack is now #1 on my go to list for bbq!! Also wanted to give a shout out to T.J., the young man who took my order and waited for my husband to finally get there! Thank you so much TJ you definitely deserve a raise!!!! P.S. the fried okra is AAMMMMAAZZZINGGGGG!!!!
Listen to me if you don’t read nothing else. This food is a small restaurant haven. The food and the customer service is off the charts. I would absolutely recommend anybody to this place.
Working in the field up in Harvest today. Looking for something besides fast food for lunch. Found this little Gem! I had the pork sandwich combo with fried okra and sweet tea. DELICIOUS! My coworker had the pork plate with potato salad, baked beans, hush puppies and of course the Banana pudding. Everything was EXCELLENT. Customer service was phenomenal. We were greeted as soon as we opened the door. Our food was brought to us at the table. We will definitely be back next time in that neck of the woods!!
very good. was very impressed especially by the banana pudding. wings were very good (smoked golden honey sauce).
Best barbecue I have had in Alabama. There, pulled pork is moist and flavorful. You don't need any sauce. They also have the best fried mushrooms. The potato salad is good but not great. It has a mustard / pickle taste. The baked beans were ok. They just seemed basic, maybe right out of the can even. The banana pudding, I also didn't enjoy. The bananas were a little brown for me and there is something of a garnish on top. I'm not sure if it was egg white or bread. I need to try the other meats and sides. But would I drive back to Shababys for their barbecue and mushrooms.....Absolutely. Worth the Drive!!
I had a good experience, the food was good, and you can tell that the owner(s) love their business.
