Willie Jewell's Old School B-q

This place is awesome! It is so unassuming with a decor that defines the word kitsch. Tucked away in a faceless strip center, this tiny footprint stands ignominiously above the asphalt and maddening crowd. But the smells and tastes beckons back to a time when good food was the thing most people revered. While the environment screams 1960 's, the edibles approach a spiritual experience with the sweet incense of slow-cooked brisket alerting all those who enter that they have at long last found the Holy Grail of beef BBQ. The sides... the sauce... even the smoke tinged air takes the diner to a time and place where BBQ was the gospel spoken to the sophisticated palates that celebrated a Southern...

Upon entering the restaurant, the staff is very welcoming. It had been a few years since my last visit. I decided to order a brisket sandwich with two sides of Mac n cheese, feeling a bit nostalgic. The brisket was incredibly tender and didn't need any sauce, although I couldn't resist dipping it in their sweet sassy sauce. The ambiance inside is clean and relaxing, with soft lighting overhead. Unfortunately, the Mac n cheese didn't meet my expectations - lacking in cheese flavor and reminding me of a disappointing experience with a similar dish from US Foods. Despite this, I will still return because I love brisket, but I will explore other side options next time.

This restaurant is really good! I ordered the ribs and my husband had the brisket. The portion sizes were generous and the meat was tender. I enjoyed the variety of sauces you could choose from, with hickory being our favorite. The amount of fries was huge, we couldn't finish them all! They also served Texas toast. You order at the counter, find a seat, and your food is brought to you. We were visiting Charleston after a 4.5 hour drive and this restaurant was conveniently close to our hotel. We were glad we decided to dine here!

It took a while to get through the line with two people in front of us. They should've opened up the other other register. In spite of that minimal hiccup the employees were very friendly and professional. The food was very good! Chicken, brisket and pork all cooked to perfection. The amount provided vs cost was very judicious. Will definitely go back! Réservez une table maintenant

Fried okra was great. Baked beans were OK. Smoked half chicken was good. No Brunswick do you? As it makes sense. Plasticware when trying to cut chicken? Doesn’t make sense. Price was good facility was OK. Server/cashier barely smiled? I will definitely have to give it another shot. It seems that their ratings are better than my experience.

This hidden gem of a BBQ restaurant located in a small plaza is not to be missed. They offer a fantastic variety of meats and sides that surpass expectations. The down south cooking is truly exceptional. I had the smoked sausage with collard greens and Mac and it was all superb. I would definitely come back for another delicious meal.

Willie Jewell’s is fantastic. I had the brisket with a side of Brunswick stew. The Brisket was delicious and very tender and juicy. I used the vinegar and the hickory heaven barbeque sauce and the hot mama sauce was good too! The stew was delicious as well. You can’t go wrong at willie jewll’s Réservez une table maintenant

The bbq meat is fantastic. The brisket was tender yet stayed together meaning it wasn't overcooked. The bbq sauces were kept warm in a dispenser similar to a coffee urn. I thought this was a very nice touch. Service was quick. Coleslaw was boring and tasteless
