My coworkers and I were in Mobile for a conference and wanted to experience some Alabama BBQ. It was tasty, and hits the spot when you want BBQ, but it is nothing out of this world. I ordered the pork sandwich with coleslaw and pickles. Never got the pickles, but the sandwich was jam-packed with meat and coleslaw! The seasoned fries were perfectly hot, crispy, and not too oily. Cute restaurant on the inside. Very friendly and attentive staff. I had a problem with my order and they were kind enough to remove it from the bill and offered to remake it

Respectably good BBQ located in downtown Mobile. We stopped by there before visiting USS Alabama. We’ve never been to Mobile so we just did a blind search on google map and found this place. We were concerned about parking but we easily found a spot. It was a nice day so we had our food to go and ate at the park next door. I’m not sure about their services but the interior seems pretty nice for a BBQ joint. Everything we had was good. They packed us some coleslaw (not sure if it was their normal thing to do) and it was great.

I’m not sure why this place has such great reviews. We ordered the “special,” which was a brisket sandwich with cheese, bacon, and fries, but there was nothing special about it. The brisket was dry and bland, the bacon was overly salty and undercooked, and the overall meal was disappointing. To make things worse, our server seemed more interested in chatting with other customers than checking on us. The prices were also steep for what you get – $20 each for the special felt unreasonable. I wouldn’t recommend dining here.

I always look at reviews and read good things. BBQ sounded good. Left office, short walk, nice day. Waitress was helpful. Asked for the brisket French fries. Looked good when placed on table. Started to eat and the outside was barely warm. Start going to the center and not even close to hot, and barely warm. Waitress asked how was it and I said good but cold. She did say they could redo the order, but I was more than half done. Disappointed.

Cotton State BBQ was delicious! We experienced the Downtown food truck.The BBQ sauce is an award winning recipe and I will tell you I don’t really care for too many bbq sauces but this sauce was bomb! The crinkle fries were seasoned and actually crispy! I get dissapointed with crinkles usually because they aren’t crisp enough. My family loved the cheese fries and brisket fries!

Enjoyed a nice sammy with a side of fries and cole slaw. The fries were improved with the seasoning and the slaw wasn’t sweet and full of mayo. They weren’t your average sides and this isn’t your average BBQ. Give them a try and see why.

Stopped into Cotton State BBQ’s new location last week and ordered the dry rub chicken wings. If im speaking honestly, these may be the best dry rub wings in Mobile. Theyre delicious and worth the price!
Overall im really digging the new location. Its got a good feel to it. Plenty of seating. Unique art, super clean bathrooms (a huge plus).
Kris and Joanna are the two servers you’ll most likely deal with. Theyre both at the top of their game. Quick, efficient, accommodating, knowledgeable, and friendly. If youre a regular, they’ll remember your name and usual order. A nice personal touch. They’ll tend to you immediately and regularly
Food did not take long to come out at all. Came out hot and just the way I imagined it. Perfect stop if youve got a short lunch break. 10/10 experience.
