Staff is very friendly. Was out of brisket at 4:00 pm on a Thursday which seems like a planning foul. The seating area is nice, a little chilly so bring a jacket.
The tip and chick dinner was good. Sauce had lots of flavor but tons of bones in the sliced chicken.
The pulled pork sandwich and just the meat were really good. Good smoke flavor with great sauce.
The beans were great but a small serving size for the price.
French fries seemed fresh and were hot.
Overall it seems a bit overpriced for the serving sizes. Good food though.

You can taste the process in the BBQ Ribs and Chicken. They both had a good smokey flavor, were tender, and the sauce added a nice kick.
We also tried a couple of sides. The coleslaw was a stand-out while the beans, greens, and cornbread not so much. The beans needed a little more spice, greens needed vinegar, and bread was too dry.
The tables were empty besides a roll of paper toweling (which was needed). However, salt and pepper and hot sauce would have helped with the subtle difference between ok and really good. Some upbeat background music would have also enhanced the ambiance.

This was my first visit to this place. My daughter had a half rack of ribs and I had amazing brisket! With 2 drinks it was 36$ out the door. I loved that everything was piping hot. A lot of barbecue places that I visit seem to serve food that isn’t so warm. The surrounding neighborhood is slightly blighted but don’t let that deter you from trying this place out! I will be back if I’m in that neck of the woods.

Good home cooked barbeque. Liked that we could get sauce on the side for the ribs. We also ordered ribs and chicken that came with sauce. We should have requested sauce on the side as it was more than we expected. But overall, it was a good meal. Liked all the pictures on the wall and the message of hope. We would eat there again.

Lark’s knocked it out of the park! The taste of the rib tibs and catfish fillet were to cry for! Good moisted meat that had a good pork and smoke taste; fried to perfection fish that don’t miss. The service was excellent and this place is a great place to bring family, friends, or employees. There was good overall barbecue being made here. There is also rich history in the community serving others. I love the pictures on the walls of how the establisent started and how their ministry is involved. You won’t be disappointed!

Love Larks. New location is shiny, but the Que is still the best. Get the ribs or the rib tips. Brisket is a solid choice. Can’t comment on the poultry or fish, I never get that far down the menu board. Get a large order of tips and serve in small crock pot at your next get together. Great old school mustard potato salad. There is a reason why Larks has survived and grown-Good Food-Great Service.

My buddies and I were passing through the town and I stumbled on Lark’s. The four of us had a great lunch.

Best BBQ in town. Eat in or take out. The employees are very nice people and respectful. Food selection is fantastic. Great brisket, pulled pork, pulled chicken, fish sandwich, gumbo soup and sides to go with them. I highly recommend the banana pudding that is only prepared and available starting Friday and is usually out by end of day Sat. The bread pudding and peach cobbler are always a treat too.
Wait time: I recommend ordering by phone and going to pick up if you are getting it to go. The wait time usually isn’t bad, but they are popular and by American standards take a few more minutes than normal. it’s a time to take a deep breath and relax a few more minutes. This is not the place to be self absorbed in your mobile and highly impatient. Enjoy life!
My response to another posted review:
If we have to go there, I’m white and have NEVER felt like an outcast or out of place here. The people here are very respectful and inclusive regardless of race, etc. If someone feels differently, chances are it’s most likely an inner-bias and/or self-consciousness stewing and skewing their perception. Let differences in culture bind us, not divide us.
