Let me tell ya! This was some of thee best food from the Islands in Virginia!!! First let me start with Marissa she was amazing. Not only is she phenomenal she also pays attention to detail. When a host goes out of there way to remember your name and makes your evening by asking about the food. Making sure you enjoy every onuce. But the chef even came out and spoke with us for a little bit and recommended dishes as well. Brought me a homemade Jerk sauce that was absolutely delicious! I can not tell you one bad thing about this place. I will ALWAYS be a loyal customer to this establishment! They have done everything right! I will be back tomorrow for those Jerk Wings!!!!

I was very impressed. I ordered the chopped pork sandwich (NC Style) and sweet potato wedges. There was a slight wait for the food, but while I waited, the cashier brought out chips and salsa, which I thought was odd for a BBQ joint, but they were pretty good. My food came out piping hot! The sandwich was piled high with meat and the bun was toasted. It melted in my mouth. The sweet potato wedges were hot, crispy and good. The staff was also very friendly. Seemed like they were familiar with many of the customers. Definitely looking forward to my next visit.

This Southeast North Carolina boy loved Bubba-N-Frank’s Carolina style Barbecue. Smoke came through and it was just enough to enhance the perfectly cooked pork. Brunswick Stew was delicious. Best hush puppies I’ve had in a long time. Yummy collards and the okra dynamite!

This was my first time ordering from this location. I must indeed say, we will be ordering again. Food was hot and tasty. I ordered the Salmon and it was cooked just right to my liking. The salmon was sweet, smokey and robust. The sweet potatoes wedges were surprisingly wonderful. They are coated with sugar and not salt. Oh, one more side you should try. The broccoli was steamed just right and full of flavor as well. Customer service was amazing. The young lady that took my order was amazing. She double checked my order before leaving. Gave me a loyalty customer card. Make sure to ask for one! Of your worried about getting out your car, don't!! They have a drive thru. I do recommend you trying this place once or twice! You won't be disappointed!!

It was my first time there. The food was great. My husband and I eat in the dining area. We put our order in at the counter. The server brought our food to us. The area was clean. OMG, the barbecue and coleslaw had the old-fashioned Caroline taste. I will be back for catering. Love that place.

Incredible BBQ with authentic southern soul sides! They also had a ton off BBQ and Mexican food combined food, like a brisket quesadilla. Their smoked sausage and fried okra were delicious!!!

Bubba-N-Frank's had a huge variety of food - I was expecting the typical BBQ menu of chopped BBQ, pulled BBQ, brisket, chicken, etc. They also have Philly sandwiches, chicken and dumplings, and more. The menu was so full I didn't get a chance to take it all in. I got the chopped BBQ, NC style and it was very good - stacked high with hot pork. The tenderness and flavor was some of the best I've had. Hush puppies are also good. Staff is friendly, they'll help you make a selection if you can't decide what to have. I'd go back again if I was in the area.
