    Fresh-Milk Mozzerella and Tomato is to die for. Sandwiches are flawless & the atmosphere is incredible. Lots of indoor & outdoor seating, with high-pressure misters outside, make this a perfect spot!

    Country store atmosphere with 5 star food and service. Watch out for the rooster and hen that perch in the tree by the entry door. Come once and you will definitely return.

    Check out the writing on the walls, and try the pulled pork sandwich (with fried onions, bacon, and a special BBQ sauce). And if you like vegetarian or vegan, you can get your fix too.

    They are def putting something addictive into their food - since we found it we come here at least three times a week! Their sandwiches are insane and the caramel salted cheesecake is to die for!

    There's literally nothing at this place that isn't delicious (try the bbq!) and the atmosphere is great. It's always packed, so have a friend hold down a table while you order.

    I love this place but it's always crowded. I guess that's a good thing but they just seem like they need a bigger place. But the food is incredible.

    I like the pulled pork sandwich it is always delicious and tasty. The restaurant is usually crowed but has a ton of seating options. The restaurant has a cute theme and they even let you sign it!

    Great sandwiches! Both fresh roast turkey or roast beef as well as pulled pork. Good atmosphere. Extensive collection of beers on tap.

    Relax in the 100 year old house while eating amazing Carolina-style BBQ or delicious vegetarian favorites. Try the Club Elvis sandwich for a unique twist to a BBQ sandwich.

    Every single thing I've ever had a yellow dog is amazing! In particular I like their Herbivores' Delights section of vegetarian options. The Downward Dog and Black Lab's Lunch are excellent.

    I was pleased with all the veg*n options they had ("Herbivore's Delights"). I had the Jolly Green Giant, and it was very good. Looking forward to going back and trying more of the veg*n options.

    Great food with outdoor dining area. Johnny Rocket sandwich very tasty, cherry peppers add some kick. Mr. Smokey is gourmet pulled pork at it's finest - pineapple and bacon top off its perfection.

    Just because the word dog is in the name, remember it's against FL law to have your pet in the restaurant. http://myfloridalicense.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/36

    Worth the trek! Don't let the chickens in the yard deter you... this place knows pork! A relaxed and easy environment - bring a pen and write on the tables and walls!

    Sit in the bus is the garden, say hi to the local cat and the friendly chickens roaming the parking lot. And eat all the pulled pork you can.

    Must do when it's busy: Get here, grab a table and menus, and then "phone in" your order. You'll get your food faster and you don't have to wait in the stupid, cramped line :-)
