Stop what you’re doing and RUN to World Famous Rib Shack!!! The photos don’t just speak—they shout pure culinary perfection! Let me tell you, these turkey wings weren’t just seasoned; they were kissed by the spice gods. The mac and cheese? Oh, it’s a gooey, golden dream that melts in your mouth, while the collards are so savory and tender they might just bring a tear to your eye. The food? Unbelievably fresh, steaming hot, and bursting with flavor. The service? Lightning-fast and served with a smile that makes you feel like family. The atmosphere? Warm, inviting, and brimming with soul. This isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a hidden treasure waiting to be discovered. Don’t miss your chance to experience the magic. Auntie Pam will get you right!

My family and I just got off a cruise and was looking for something to eat. This family owned restaurant was such a good find. The food was great . Shout out to Mayzell for her amazing customer service! If you’re in the area please go support this hidden gem .

Now this place sells some real good soul food. You get a good portion and its affordable. You"ll get full for sure. The wait time is reasonable. It can get crowded at times but they move. The people here are professional and courteous. The only downside to it is that the parking can be a hassle bc the parking lot is so small and if you park anywhere else your car will get towed. But the security up front tries to accommodate and help you park. SN: Seafood Rice is only served on Fridays and Oxtails on Sundays.

They offer a nice variety of home cooked items. All dinners included rice. You get to add two side dishes. Their food is reasonably priced. I had turkey wings which were cooked to perfection. I also had pigeon peas and rice, macaroni and cheese, and green beans.

Overall good experience and wide selection of menu items to choose from. Service was good and only waited about 10 minutes for food. If you order seafood, you are able to see it in the front counter to order before it’s cooked so I think I will try the fried conch next time. Portions were very generous and sides were good. I was happy with the mixed greens but the Mac and cheese couldn’t have been a bit hotter. Will definitely return to try additional items.
