“ Epic! Delicious meat and sides! You can tell some real time went into the preparation of all the meat. The sides were equally tasty and the service was top notch. The food came out quick. At each table there’s multiple flavors of BBQ sauces to choose from so you can add a little extra zest or just try new things. Overall it was a great experience and I’m looking forward to coming here again! ”
“ Best barbecue I’ve had here. Been here for 30 years and they bring it. Will definitely come back. Friendly service and great food! This is the food we ordered to-go because we wanted to eat more later ... ”
“ Hot, fresh and delicious! I am always impressed with the quality of their bbq and that amazing smoke smell in the restaurant really sets the tone for what you are about to experience. I got the Burnt End Sandwich with mac n cheese and coleslaw. Everything was delicious and fresh. I also ordered a pork sandwich to-go and destroyed that shortly after coming home and the it still tasted just as fresh as being in the store. Allnof their sauces are on pint as well!! Definitely worth a try, if you haven't. ”
“ AMAZING. We’ve gone a handful of times and have introduced new people to Whitner’s as well. Our first time, we asked a few questions and the man behind the counter actually came around and talked to us for a bit. We got the back story of the place and the “behind the scenes” stuff too! Our food has always come out hot and the way we order it. It always tastes so good. SO GOOD. ”
“ This place is insanely good. We found it with a Groupon and now we always bring our out of town guests here. I have always had the chicken which is delish, and tries the ribs for the first time today. Holy cow, the best ribs I have ever had. I will definitely be ordering those more! In short, this place is totally worth finding it in the looks-can-be-deceiving strip mall it is in. ”
“ This place is fantastic, I love coming here for lunch and my favorite thing to get is the smoked quarter chicken with the gold sauce. I usually get it with the dirty rice and potato salad. The chicken is smoked nicely, it's always juicy and gold bbq sauce is smackin good! A great Lynnhaven staple for sure. You know I'll be Back ”
“ Great food the Burnt Ends were so good....3 hour drive worth it!! ”
“ We were bummed when Jake's closed last year so we were looking for a new BBQ place when we come down on vacation, Whitner's hit the spot. Everything was excellent, the food came out super quick, my group had a large plate of the pulled chicken, a pulled pork sandwich, and a red hot sausage sandwich. The portion sizes were large and the prices were good. For the three of us with drinks it was 40. They have BBQ sauces at the table for variety but we just went with the sauce that came on the plates. Everyone behind the counter was very friendly and they checked up on us halfway through to see if we needed anything. We will definitely be back next year, I would highly recommend this place. ”
