Shared a delicious meal here yesterday with my friends John and Mila-Jane who were visiting from Hampton Roads. To be honest, when John picked Saucy's for the restaurant choice, I almost suggested he choose another place based on past experiences with takeout orders my boss has gotten from Saucy's (my co-workers and I just didn't share his love of their food).Well, I'm glad I gave Saucy's another chance. One of the big differences for me is that I finally got to have their fries hot and crispy from the fryer. If I hadn't ordered the platter, I would've eaten them all first. I also sampled my friends' potato salad and mashed sweet potato sides and they tasted a lot like my homemade versions.The other surprise was my side of kale and black beans. I was expecting something salty and/or vinegary, not the somewhat sweet flavor from the onions in this dish. Everything else on my platter was yummy and perfectly cooked too. I chose the beef brisket for my slider since pork and chicken were covered by the sausage, rib and drumstick. But even now, I cannot pick a favorite; my mouth is watering for them all!Now, if you're thinking about giving Saucy's a try, bear in mind that the entrees do NOT include sides unless stated in the description. My friends' slider trios plus 1 side cost about the same as my platter which had the 2 sides. Plus, I had enough left over for my dinner. (To quote my jr high algebra teacher, "A word to the wise is sufficient.")

This Place is so delicious!! We came in last saturday and had to come back. I got the Half chicken again and it always is so perfect hot and fresh. I can hear the angels sing every time! and not to mention I lifted up the wing and there is seasoning in every crevice . They do not miss! It tastes so good I could almost cry. It's always hard for me to choose my sides because they are all soo good. He gets the Saucy Sampler and always mentions how much of a good deal it is. Service was amazing she remembered us from last time which was unexpected but appreciated. 2 Down East Ciders and dessert and I sleep like a baby the rest of the night.

We stopped after a visit to the national park Crate site. The food was amazing. The ribs and pulled pork sandwich were both tasty.The highlight tho was the Moon Fry for desert. A deep fried moon pie with a Caramel glaze and ice cream. It tastes as good as you'd think, actually a lot better. Worth the trip on its own, but do try the BBQ also.

Nice atmosphere. Clean. Very good friendly service. The food was good. I had the pork sandwich. The meat was good, but I didn’t care for the sauce. It was a tomato base sauce with not much flavor. I learned after dining that they do have a vinegar sauce available . None of the sauces are out on the table. The meat is served with sauce on it. I would probably rate 5 stars if the sauce was better.They appeared to have a selection of nice beers on tap. The sides were good.

We were on a trip and saw the name on Google and it sounded interesting. Stopped by and oh this will be our new stop when we are headed north. Such a nice flavor, a little unique in a good way. The sampler is the best value. After they brought it out, my teenage son who said he wasn't hungry, immediately ordered one as well. Great service, very friendly staff. You won't be disappointed.

Stopped in based on the reviews. Got the sampler and decided to order more to bring home. Much saucier than usual but I knew that going in...heck it's in the name. The sauce was very very good.. sweet but a nice balance of savory.The coleslaw was excellent. Never would have thought cilantro and pineapple would be good and it wasn't....IT WAS GREAT!The ladies there were all extremely nice.Definitely recommend!

I’ve been to Saucy’s many times beginning over 7 years ago. The brisket is tender and the chicken is moist. Everything is flavorful and filled with southern flair. The sweet potatoes are sweet and like candy. It’s a must have when you visit. Be sure to grab some Saucy’s rub and BBQ sauce too. They have Pork, Chicken, and Beef BBQ sauce.Service was very good and there are plenty of beer options available. The sweet tea was great and not overly sweet. You can eat inside, outside or take it to go. Wi-Fi is available and there are bathrooms.Vegetarian options: Sweet potatoes, fries, Mac and cheese balls, slaw, tofu bbq and more!Parking: Plenty of parking around the buildingWheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is all on one level

This place was A1. We were greeted the moment we walked in the door. The service was bob on. The sweet tea was southern style. We started with que and Mac balls which were really good I enjoyed both sauces but switched them up. Clearly the portions are all very big. I really loved the pork slider the most of the three, pork, chicken, and brisket. And the ribs were good and tender. Only issue I would warn people that there is cilantro in the slaw, I have never seen that before and the slaw was also dry I’m not sure if that would classify it as slaw still or just shredded cabbage but all in all everything was really good. Do not forget to try some of the cornbread either it was very moist and sweet that was probably my favorite thing tied up with the pork bbq. Another bonus is that it is very affordable for such big bbq. A must try if you’re in the area.

Saucy's is my favorite BBQ in the world. I thought it was wonderful the first time I ever tasted it, and it has only gotten better over the years. We got 25 lbs of their pork BBQ for my wedding a few years ago and of course it was a huge hit and no one could get enough. I moved out of town a couple years ago and visited this past week and of course had to go to Saucy's. I was not disappointed. We had a big group and all of our food was perfect. There is literally nothing on the menu that isn't amazing. Try it all. On top of spectacular food, the service is phenomenal, and the atmosphere is very relaxed and casual. They do serve beer here. There is a large seating area inside, as well as a bar, and they have a large patio with tables out front. The parking lot is ample and well-placed, with two entrances/exits. Overall, you can't go wrong with anything at Saucy's, they are great for a quick bite to eat, a family dinner, or a large event.

The peanut butter pie is outstanding! The chicken tacos are awesome! The brisket taco and sandwich are pretty good. Some of the best coleslaw I've ever had. (I don't normally like coleslaw). The cueballs are a must!Vegetarian options: Tofu tacos

Great BBQ place! Food was delicious and service was wondeful. Friendly staff and very welcoming atmosphere. We got the pork and chicken sandwiches with the brisket nachos and mac and cheese and mashed sweet potatoes as our sides. We look forward to returning to try the rest of the menu.

We got the Cue balls which was like cheese and jalapeños ( but not spicy), mac balls which is fried Mac n cheese, and then the brisket nachos. The cue and Mac were really tasty! Love the green sauce it comes with. Nice appetizer and unique item. The brisket on the nachos were delicious but otherwise the dish itself was too plain Jane. No sauce just too many dry chips that didn’t get eaten. Would be nice to have some more flavor in there or at least some pico de gallo salsa. Otherwise it’s a nice spot. Cozy and cool atmosphere for a quick bite!

Perfect little brewery and eatery, bring a buddy or bring the family. Very family friendly, staff is awesome! Quick service, excellent food and tasty beer. What else can you ask? Well my daughter had a question about the three bean trio, Our server brought her a sample to try before ordering, ditto with me and my beer order. Cue Balls are killer! Flavorful especially with the dip and the sweet potato side, OMG!! We are here for My daughter's Graduation from Fort Lee tomorrow, my oldest daughter and I went and so glad we did! So the Graduation girl missed out, definitely next time we are in town. We highly recommend trying this BBQ brewery out, banging spot on to the taste buds! Thank you again to your all your staff! Keep up the excellent work

I do recommend the Sampler Platter! It was Awesome! Cole Slaw was a bit different, but nonetheless delicious. French fries were heavily seasoned, too much for my taste. Had to dust off a few.

Food was amazing, I was a bit apprehensive as I realize things can get intense in the BBQ world however our server Nikki took her time and explained everything to me. She told me whatever I pick would be good and boy she did not lie! I had the sliders that came with Brisket, BBQ Chicken and BBQ Pork. It was the best I've had. Will definitely be stopping back to see Nikki who is an absolute delight!

Atmosphere is pretty nice; amazing beer selection and pretty decent food. Ordered the sampler, sausage was regular, ribs were decent. The sides were different but good enough.As a whole; I enjoyed my experience.

Stopped by for lunch and so glad we found this place. Good craft beer selection. We had the sampler and sliders and it was very filling. It was kid-friendly and there is outdoor seating. I would definitely recommend.

Brisket was good! No slaw or extra sauce though. The chicken street tacos were loaded with hot sauce. Kinda ruined them for me. Service was ok. She didn’t check on us until we were done eating.

Had the pork tacos... could have been better if flour tortillas had been toasted a little... and I enjoy vinegar based BBQ [Carolina style] more than oily, sauce based... but, the kale and blackbeans was very good side dish...and was the highlight of my first experience.

The only reason why I'm giving four stars is because they forgot mine and another person order in which we had to wait. Other than that the food was delicious and the coleslaw was very different but very very good. My first time eatting there and I would say "DELICIOSO".

I had the mac balls and the other one (forgot the name) and the sampler. I wanted to sample some things to see what I liked best and the ribs knocked it out of the park. The sauce served with the apps should be bottled and sold. My only dislike was the cilantro in the coleslaw (only because I don't like too much of it), also the staff was nice, but too laid back and no luster. Some even looked like their clothes weren't clean. I know it's the food industry, but that's exactly my point. I will return and recommend the ribs.

This place was a welcome surprise. Found it on Google and took a chance that it would be good and it was. There was indoor and outdoor seating with full waitress service that was quite good. The food was delicious and the options were interesting and went well together. Also, the prices could not be beat. Definitely recommend.
