This place is truly amazing. The food is outstanding! The prices are good and you will probably have leftovers to enjoy the next day! I am a huge fan of BBQ ribs and this place delivers the best! You can actually smell the chefs cooking the ribs as you park! The wait staff was very kind and helpful. The sweet tea will make any southerner swoon. It is great for a family meal or a fun night with friends. Delivers southern style food at great prices!
Pros: nice staff, service, seated promptly, great bbq,

The food is good and there is plenty of it...no way could I finish! The atmosphere is sort of like being at Applebees. I love the pulled pork sandwich on a nice potato roll. The turnip greens are to die for, coleslaw was very fresh and tasty. Nice, clean place with attentive friendly service.
Pros: Turnip Greens ROCK, Good Value, Very good waitstaff

I am a regular customer to the Alverser Drive restaurant. My favorite is the BBQ Pulled pork sandwhich, with fries (which are fresh and seasoned) and coleslaw. This makes for a great meal at a decent price. No matter how busy the restaurant is, I always get a table within a matter of minutes, and the food comes out within a very reasonable amount of time. If the restaurant has only a few patrons, the food comes out within 4-5 minutes. On top of that, I am always impressed with the consisten and polite service from the waitstaff! They are generally very friendly and sincere. I recommend this restaurant to any BBQ lover!
Pros: great food, great service, reasonable prices
Cons: can get crowded, can get loud

if you're looking for a great place to eat that's both affordable and tasty, than extra billy's is a good choice. the meat is smoked to succulent perfection and the hushpuppies are the best i've ever had. (free on tues nights!) i love the fries, which are specially seasoned and unlike any others you'll ever have. if you enjoy beer, extra billy's offers a variety of freshly brewed beers that it makes right there in the restaurant. the service is superb also. all of the servers are well mannered, professional and seem to enjoy their job. from free kids night on wednesdays and live music on the patio that night also to excellent prime rib on fridays and saturdays, extra billy's provides perks that further enhance the restaurant's charm. i highly recommend that you try this place out if you haven't already done so.
Pros: not crowded, inexpensive, nice atmosphere

Our daughter had a basketball tournament in town last weekend and we were fortunate to stumble into "Billy's". It was 6:00PM and he parking lot was full......We expected a long wait , but the place is cavernous, and we were seated immediatwely. The waiter was attentive and professional. He couldn't have been more than 22 or so years old. The food was absolutely delightful. I had a combo platter of chicken, pulled pork and sausage. All three were both moist and flavorful. The sauage reminded me of as good as any I've tasted in New Braunfels or Fredericksburg Texas. The pulled pork almost melted in my mouth. Those of you who have ever eaten at Allman's up the road in Fredricksburg will know what I mean! Can't wait to get back, to try a rack. P.S. Don't drink the cabernet!
Pros: inexpensive
