Keller's Real Smoked -b-q Lake Mary

The people that work here are extremely rude and do not know how to talk to people. The minute I walked in I could feel the thick air !!!! I’m not from around here; I’m on vacation and wanted to try a new place. I ordered take out instead of dine in. But I was waiting for family and we met outside and we ended up sitting on the chairs outside. Where I’m from the establishments usually let us sit outside without any issues. Understandably, we ordered take out. I get it, but the way they talked to us was just plain rude. If it wasn’t busy why was it an issue that we were sitting outside. When we arrived there were people sitting outside who didn’t look like they even ordered anything. We spent money there and just sat outside, didn’t know that was a crime. Learn how to talk to people and don’t make mountains out of mole holes. We were sitting there for not even 5 minutes. How do you threaten to kick a paying customer out??? Your rules don’t make sense. Ignorant.

The food here is pretty good, and there are lots of vegetable side dishes to choose from, to please those who aren't big meat eaters. The pulled pork was smoky and lean and tasty.

The meat tenderness and flavor is good, the sides are inconsistent across the various ones. The coleslaw and baked beans were decent but the Mac and mashed potatoes were below average.

Went with a group of 4 others and all enjoyed it! This location is VERY small. Only 2 servers at most but both very attentive. Michelle was our main server but other checked on us too. I had the Brunswick Stew. Having lived in Brunswick for 2 years it was comparable and even better than some I've had there! Also had the pulled pork sandwich and side of greens. The pork was slightly dry but sauce helped. They have a Carolina based mustard sauce and a sweet sauce. Both were good. Also have a hot sauce which I didn't try. Nice atmosphere but men's restroom could use some love. It was clean but had some peeling paint. Quick simple fix! All in all give them a try. Note there are 2 locations. This review is for Lake Mary. Also one in Altamonte springs but told by several it's not as good!

Today my husband and I were in to have a late lunch and it was 88° inside the building. I do not understand why it had to be that hot. I know y’all make enough money to keep the air conditioning going, but we did not enjoy our meal as we ate in the hot restaurant.
