    A came across this restaurant several times on my drive to my work sites. Today I had a little extra time to stop by for breakfast. I ordered the bacon egg and cheese sandwich and it was phenomenal. Nice toasted bun really crispy bacon and loads of it. The egg was cooked to perfection and the cheese just melted perfectly and bonded the sandwich all together. Really good sized sandwich. I ordered two because I thought it was going to be small, but was surprised on the size, one filled me up pretty good. I told them I would be coming back for dinner and they did not disappoint. I ordered the jerk chicken bowl with a side of mashed potatoes. I had never had jerk chicken before and man it will not be the last. Delicious sweet and spicy mixed and balanced perfectly. I definitely recommend this location. Will be going back to try other menu items, it is conveniently located close to my hotel so will be coming back for more. On top of it all, they have extremely good customer service. They walked me through the different menu items and were extremely helpful.

    I drove by this place a handful of times and always wanted to give it a try but timing has always been off as it was after dinner or I already had plans. I was happy to see them on the Uber Eats app. Better yet, they were offer a promo for BOGO for their ribs and bowls. The offer is a little deceiving as they are priced at $15 on Uber Eats so the promo just brings it back to regular menu prices. I understand a markup on these apps but almost double the price is a bit much. None the less, I still decided to give it a try. We ordered a few bowls, full rack of ribs and a order of fried chicken. The only thing that was decent was the ribs. It wasn’t fall of the bone tender but was flavorful and for the price, I’d consider it a good value. We had the steak and jerk chicken bowl and they were both pretty bad. Both were very dry and the jerk chicken was just regular grill chicken with some over processed jerk sauce on it. The fried chicken was also a little disappointing as it was dry and flavorless. You really need the dipping sauces for the fried chicken.

    Food was great. Tacos were good. Chicken was great just didn’t give enough sauce on the side. Old bay fries needs more old bay.

    I was stuck in traffic and decided let me stop off and get something to eat, this place is a hidden GEM. the steak was perfectly seasoned, the rice perfectly cooked and the peppers and onions were cut up perfectly. 100% will be back!

    As for the Brisket it was horrible. The pulled pork and fries are great. The brisket is all wrong though and they give you one tiny thing of BBQ. The greens are different. Personally I didn’t like them. I preferred them like their made in the south with just vinegar. To each their own. I wouldn’t recommend. You also can’t do 2 of the same meat. Not sure why that can’t be done. Just dumb.

    I wasted money that’s what I did. What type of presentation is this? I’m so disgusted. Look at the portion for the price. How dare they? This is not the first time either. Disgusting.

    I very much enjoyed this restaurant, I ordered the jerk chicken which was tasty & I spiced it up. A red velvet cake was given to me on the house & also enjoyed it thx & the server Adam is really polite. Also was told if you order thru Uber any meal of regular price u'd get a second plate of the same item free. Also the same for drinks

    The place is BYOB and a liquor store next door, so its a great place to have good bbq and your choice of liquor. The people that work here are very accommodating and kind.

    I frequent this place pretty often. The chicken here is nice and crisp with a juicy interior. The customer service is great. They also have some of the best fries I’ve had in a while. Would definitely recommend dropping by. Oh did I mention they have a buy one get one free deal on ordering apps

    Very deceiving reviews. Ribs were pretty fatty. Cornbread tasted like pound cake. Ordered wings (not fried chicken) and still ended up with fried chicken. The instant mashed potatoes were lumpy from lack of moisture and portion size was only for one. The brisket is definitely shaved beef from the frozen food aisle which is for cheesesteaks and somehow that was also fatty. The only thing that was decent was the onion rings. Don't waste your $30 like we did.

    I'm convinced that most of these reviews are fake because no way is this place 4.4 stars. I understand that a good bit comes down to personal preference and take-out may have changed the quality of the food, but overall, it was below mediocre. I got the ribs, fried chicken, and 2 bowls. First of all, these ribs are the worst I've had from a restaurant, they taste like they were "grilled" on a gas burner for 30 min on high heat and then slavered with BBQ sauce immediately afterwards, there was only a tiny bit of meat on the ribs and the rest was just fat or gristle, and they were very dry and chewy. The chicken very meh, cooked at too high of a temp and the 'shell' just fell off the moment you pick it up, and the flavor was just salty. The bowls reminded me of what you'd get at school for lunch, it was a bunch of plain rice, a few small pieces of protein and then some greens, all combined to a dish that has little to no flavor. In conclusion, maybe if you've got the munchies or you've never tasted ribs before, this place will be fine, otherwise, go elsewhere.

    I been coming to heavenly for more than a year now and the reason being I love the variety of food, the friendly staff the cleanliness of the place and above all the price and the quantity and quality of the food. I highly recommend heavenly to everyone. You must try their spicy chicken sandwich and heavenly bowls.

    I don't write a bad review usually because I am chef and I understand issues in a kitchen. But this it's ridiculous honestly, I order 2 chicken sandwich last night the chicken was thing as a paper, so i took another piece from the second chicken sandwich to ad a bit more chicken. Well, the issue what i am writing the review is because I woke up this morning to eat the second chicken sandwich and was not chicken, i didn't realize that little scrap was the only chicken in the second sandwich, it was like a chicken tender size 🙃

    Okay...the Best Fresh Chicken Wings.. It's crunchy well cooked and not take much oil.... Since they make fresh it takes few minutes..so keep patience...the best fried chicken Garlic parmesano and lemon pepper are okok...not the best..rest you can try.... Onion rings and jalapeno bites are superb Worth the money spent

  • 4/5 Richard D. 11 months ago on Google
    Good food but the service was really slow. Took over 40 minutes to get out food after ordering. All of the fried food was great. Had a light taste to it. Ribs and tacos were also commended.

  • 5/5 Holy 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent and delicious food. Would go back again and try other dishes. Lots of flavors. Good service even on a busy night. Indoor seating is allowed. Good music going on. The whole experience was great.

  • 5/5 Uncle C. 8 months ago on Google
    The food is amazing for the price. We had chicken burrito, BBQ rib, baked beans and jerk chicken bowl. Everything was very good.

  • 5/5 Justin J. 8 months ago on Google
    BANG FOR YOUR BUCK! For $25 under you can literally get a 2 days worth of meal. The brisket is amazing, the chicken is amazing. I had the teriyaki over rice, wings, brisket and pull pork. The teriyaki over rice was okay..I like mine with a lot of sauce but quantity is amazing. The wings and briskets (with BBQ sauce) is amazing. Pulled pork is okay if you like food with extra sauce (like i do) ask for extra sauce for the wings. If you like food with minimum sauce then this is perfect

    Ordered through Grubhub got chicken fingers with fries. I loved it! The tenders are thick and crispy and the fries are great. I also added the sauce hot and jerk which was nice and spicy. Next time I’ll get more sauce

  • 1/5 Greg D. 1 year ago on Google
    Tasted like it was grilled in the back yard on a regular grill. I ordered the three meat...brisket, ribs, and sausage. The brisket was not properly cooked, the sausage wasn't smoked, and the ribs were flavorless. If you're looking for down south/smoked bbq...this place is DEFINITELY NOT IT. My response to the owners response: you said nothing about the sausage and brisket that was horrible but you didn't mention that, you only mentioned them trash ribs, and chicken that I said nothing about. Your ribs are #1 by who's standard because I can't imagine anyone that knows ribs to say yours are #1. Talk about the nasy brisket and how that's cooked and how the sausage is "smoked." I DEFINITELY will not try again nor recommend this place for ribs, brisket, or smoked sausage.

  • 5/5 Christopher R. 1 year ago on Google
    I love this place. Discovered them on Uber eats and everything I've ordered so far, has been awesome. The ribs, chicken, sandwiches, and desert is amazing! Highly recommend and will be ordering again when I'm back up here for work shortly.

  • 5/5 Amanda H. 1 year ago on Google
    Tender juicy and fresh! You don’t have to compromise between fresh food and tasty food! They are exceptional in everything they do! Must try! Delicious ribs and chicken wings!

  • 5/5 Jose T. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome food! I had Indian food with such authentic flavor. Definitely recommend this place. In addition to the food being great Micheal-Joseph offered great customer service.

  • 4/5 Nithin R. 1 year ago on Google
    Fried chicken was good. A little salty for my taste but maybe it was just that batch. Nice options on wings, strips and combos.

  • 5/5 Victoria J. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this place. Everything is cooked on a charcoal grill. The chicken tenders are actual pieces of chicken breast, so the serving sizes are the best I’ve seen and the ribs are really good. They don’t season the ribs as much but with the bbq sauce they use, they are always a good bite.

  • 5/5 Sagar J. 2 years ago on Google
    Adam in this restaurant is the best cook and cooks very well.He is very friendly and amazing person.Should surely visit this place.Best place for Mexican food.

  • 2/5 Nyah B. 2 years ago on Google
    The chicken is always good but there’s always something missing from my order. In the past it’s sodas, or the food was almost 2 hours late, and today I was given sour cream instead of blue cheese. It’s frustrating because I want to order from here more but this happens all the time.

  • 5/5 Gabi L. 2 years ago on Google
    You know it was good when people go out of their way to post a great review when they normally dont! I ordered from here with Uber eats with low expectations because restaurants always forget stuff and it's cold by the time it arrives but I was surprised by how good it was and how it was still hot when it arrived! Also no missing items! Absolutely great would buy again especially because it's not a bad price! And I would and already have started recommending it!

  • 5/5 Leandra E. 2 years ago on Google
    I order here all the time and they have the most delicious fall off the bone ribs. Their food is always fresh and they have the best deals. My go to restaurant for BBQ

  • 1/5 Keith D. Fialkoff (Chef Keith D. 2 years ago on Google
    Terrible, terrible, terrible experience. Do NOT order through Uber Eats or any other delivery service. Sadly we never got to try their Ribs but what we did get was a 44$ bill that I now have to call my bank and email Uber Eats about. My wife ordered Ribs and a Sandwich for us while I was at work. We have a newborn so she used Uber Eats. Later that day an Uber Driver delivery a completely different order that was only Fries and a small order of Wings! After repeatedly calling the Uber Driver (who did not answer) she called the restaurant. They immediately assumer it what Uber's fault and refused to take ANY blame or even help! Then even told her to drive to the restaurant to get the food! Here is the kicker.. MY WIFE'S NAME IS WRITTEN ON THE BAG IN SHARPIE! I have been a Chef for 15 years. I cannot believe how my wife was treated.. When I got home I called the restaurant myself and asked for a manager. Unsurprisingly, I was told that a manager was not available.. Cant wait to call Bank of America Tomorrow! Smh..

    I love the food here,its always served up fresh. Sam is always so pleasant and serves your food up fast.I think Sam is alone working so hard. You need more workers like him in your store .I look forward to eating this food and it's nice having a person take care of your orders.I give Sam a A+ for his service

  • 4/5 Victoria C. 3 years ago on Google
    Chicken tacos, chicken tenders, grilled jerk chicken. wings, drums, crab cakes, sweet corn, collard greens, mashed potatoes and gravy delivered via Uber Eats on time. We ordered the 5 meats platter (serves 2) and weren’t disappointed. Only issue, for me was that the corn had too much butter. So make sure to specify how you like your sides 🤓 Heavenly made good on their name! 👌🏽👍🏽

  • 5/5 Caitlin T. 2 years ago on Google
    Don't let the location fool you... this food is 10/10. Every single thing is amazing, and we've tried a lot of their stuff. Chicken tenders are huge and somehow still juicy... bowls are packed with flavor and delicious ingredients. Definitely go.
