The place is the epitome of “hole in the wall”.
It is a true gem.
We went on a busy Saturday.
The food took a few minutes to come out, but that’s to be expected.
It is made to order, hot, and absolutely homemade, delicious food for the soul.
Kudos to the cooks!!
The ladies at the front counter were all polite, professional, and accommodating.
We will most definitely be going back.

Food is always great!!! Cooked fresh and delicious!
Service is good. Not overly friendly but job gets done.
Atmosphere is ok. Small dinning area. Music is very loud. I would not recommend sitting in the corners where speakers they are located if you want to talk.

We’re from out of town. Went here on the recommendation of a employee at the driver’s license office. Really glad we did. BBQ was delicious. My wife had the salad and I had a sandwich and fries. Really enjoyed our lunch. Wish we lived closer by would definitely eat here often and try other things on the menu. Love to patronize the local businesses that are part of the community.
A month later……
Had the chance to return again. We had cheeseburgers this time. They were really good. Hope we may be in Jacksonville again one day.

I wish I took pics but the food was so good, it was gone before I thought of it. Sweet smokey barbecue smothering a fresh and crisp salad the traditional southern sweet tea and cozy atmosphere make for an exceptional experience! Highly recommended if you are craving an oversized hamburger made with high-quality beef, a veggie plate, or a crunchy salad smothered with the best barbecue! Get it! You won’t regret it!

Busy Friday night. Dine in. Food took a little bit because they were very busy…but it was worth the wait because the coleslaw and BBQ sandwich were some of the best I’ve ever had. If you are looking for amazing Alabama BBQ, this is the place.

This place has the best BBQ in Alabama in my opinion. They’re locally owned and operated. Before you think that it’s a bit pricey, check out the food. The BBQ salad, for example, has a lot of meat on it. I can make 2-3 meals out of it. My family loves their burgers, as they are huge and super fresh. Jacksonville wouldn’t be the same without the Rocket!

A really great stop for BBQ. Small, no frill, and good.
Stopped in from out of town — and have eaten BBQ all over the country. This is good! The Baked Beans were excellent as were the Onion rings. The meat was tasty as well.
Small, off the beaten path place. Worth the stop!

This place never disappointed. It’s been years since I’ve been back and I love it. Food is great: service is good! Can’t go wrong with a smoked chicken or pork salad. Those are usually my go-To
