Reviews of Sims Smoked Barbecue & Seafood
Bridget Breland
Found some Smokin’ good Que on the drive to St Augustine.
Worth a stop.
The Shrimp Platter is off the hook well seasoned deliciousness.
My husband was very impressed with how the brisket was so moist/juicy (not easy to do with brisket).
All the customers I spoke with in line were repeat locals each with their own recommendations from the smoked Turkey leg to the homemade sweet potato pie. #BridgieBreland

Great selection of dishes available but be ready to have a wait while your food is being prepared. I ordered the pulled pork dinner with corn and potato salad. The pulled pork was delicious! The corn was very garlicky - delish - so can imagine how good the shrimp would taste. The potato salad was very creamy (possibly with a hint of egg?), and a good sized portion. Hubby got the brisket with corn and green beans. The brisket tasted a tad salty for me (of course I tried his food, haha!) and a bit spongey on the texture. He enjoyed it but said he would get something else next time. He did highly rate the green beans though. We will certainly return to try out some more food when next in the area.

Although a little bummed out from my experience from this place, I’m writing an unbiased review of their food.
Was gonna have some crawfish for lunch but apparently they misinformed me about their current supply and didn’t have any crawfish at all (I messaged them and they responded saying they had some). So I settled for some beef brisket, turkey rice, & garlic butter corn instead.
The beef brisket was a little on the dry side. The beef itself wasn’t as flavorful, but the seasoning that was sprinkled on top made it a little bit better. It was room temperature.
The turkey rice was a little bland for my taste, but it’s something new to me and I suppose it has more flavor than plain white rice.
The corn on the cob was a little over cooked and felt machine. The garlic butter sauce tasted pretty good though.
I would give this place another chance for a second review if I could try the crawfish next time.

Really good "dirty" BBQ, burnt ends, grissle, and marlbling. The brisket was one of the better ones I have had, fair pricing, and friendly staff. The only critique I have is that some mambies couldn't handle some spice, so they had to get rid of the spicy sauces. Probably still want mom to cut their crust off too. Grow up Jacob, you're 31.

Best Seafood in Florida, Maybe down south or East Coast which ever reference you Prefer.

Amanda Wade
Absolutely amazing ! Highly highly recommend the turkey leg and smoked fish!
Wendy Conatser
I drive past this lil place everyday on the way to work and think how good it smells. The husband and I tried the ribs and brisket dinners today... The meat is freaking delicious! I will definitely be trying the other items on the menu soon!
maria gomez
All I can say it’s OMG the food it’s super tasty and delicious…perfect atmosphere and wonderful customer service….For sure the best of the best
Andrea
A little spendy and the corn was very over cooked and soft. But all in all, very tasty. I’m glad they wrapped the boxes in Saran as it would have been a heckuvamess had they not. We had the 4 crab cluster and added sausage to it. Shrimp were excellent!!! Potatoes were good too!!
Open Truth Ministry
Amazing food. Fair price.
The Mac n cheese was bland.
Dawn G
OMG YOU NEED TO EAT AT THIS PLACE. I WILL TAKE IT OVER ANY BIG MONEY RESTRAUNT! The BBQ was amazing. The crab legs were soooo fresh. The corn and shrimp are delicious. And the price can't be beat. The young man who worked that day, was handaome and so sweet. I had the shrimp and crab dinner and honestly could of ate another one, it was that good.
DUSTIN DRAPER
This place is right down the street from the Florida State fairgrounds and has some really good food. Turkey legs the size of a small child. You gotta try
Lashawn Johnson
The Smoked Mullet was delicious! It has a hint of sweet apple or honey on it which gives the mullet an over the top taste. We will definitely be back to get some more and I recommend the baked beans as a side 😀 …
Jazmin Burnside
We had Sims catered for a graduation party and our guest raved about how delicious the meat was cooked. In comparison to other places the price was very reasonable. We ordered the smoked pulled pork and wings, the pork was juicy and mouthwatering. The wings were fantastic. The service was wonderful, very kind people. Will definitely be back!
Stephanie Paul
First time customer! Delicious seafood, good value, easy online ordering, friendly service. I can’t wait to try other menu items!
Janine X
Finally back from vacay and wanted to share our experience last weekend..
First time Customer, GREAT FOOD!!!
To the person that left a negative review, they don't serve whites. Here's proof they do. How bout Dat!!!
Mr. Sims your boys did their best to help take orders and cook.
We will be back for more. 😁😁
LAKE LIFE
Totally awesome food. The guys that make the food are awesome too
Off the chain flavor and spices on the crab clusters. Just writing this makes me won't more....
Joe Pezzulich
Excellent food truck on the corner of Hillsborough Ave and 578. Close to the I-4 exit. Specializing in smoke mullet and barbecue. Othe seafood items available also. Dinners are served with two sides.
Malii
Best BBQ in town. Hands down. And yes I do believe I have tried most of them. Everything they serve here is delicious. Every. Single. Thing. Seriously. And the price vs portion is 🤌

Food is good, lemonade is great.
We dealt with a young lady in the window who took our order. There was an older women in the truck with her who was very pleasant. And an older gentleman who came outside at some point and was also very pleasant. The younger lady however I think either was having some personal issues and probably wasn't very informed on how customer service works. When speaking with her she was short and turned her back towards us several times while trying to place our order. Little eye contact, and it made us feel like one we either didn't belong there or we were bothering her. We just didn't feel very comfortable. However the other two people were very pleasant.
Over all atmosphere- tables/ clean, floor/clean, music/ good and neutral I feel too any audiance
Food- great taste!
We had the brisket and pulled pork. I thought the brisket was way too thick and fatty for my liking, but that's me. The pulled pork was delicious just too fatty for me. This is my preference.🤷♀️ mac and cheese, green beans, and potato salad all very wonderful!!!
For a pulled pork sandwich and two sides with a cup of lemonade (probably 12 ounces give or take with ice) came to $15. For me $15 plate I'm used to spending at Olive Garden or similar. I wish I could afford to eat here every day because food is amazing!!! But prices are almost al carte.
$2.50 for lemonade
$6 and some change pulled pork sandwich NO SIDES
$2.50 for each side
However you could get a dinner for $13 that came with 2 sides
Now with that aside, I have read the owners responses to those that leave bad reviews and I think its very unprofessional how they handle their customer service reviews and over all take on others opinions. I know what it's like to love something you do and have alot of pride in it. However, how you respond to others shows those who havnt visited your establishment a little of what they might experience and may turn away possible customers.

I thought about taking a picture of it just after I started eating, but then the brisket was too yummy so I just devoured it. No teeth? No worries cause the brisket is extremely tender. A little expensive, but not bad for a bar b que food truck.
ed cusson
Amaizing Food? First time there. My son had the shrimp tray and I had the brisket sandwich. Both were absolutely delicious... Oooo... Wee... can't wait to go back for more!! 😎 …
Adreanna
The food is really great if you go in person but honestly they just need to give up on Uber eats… every time I order in Uber eats it’s a problem… today canceled order, last time wrong sides given and no pound cake nor a refund for missing items it’s sad because the food really is good but Seffner is a bit far for me. I wish y’all would do better thru Uber eats
James Nawotny
Make a trip here when I visit from Buffalo NY. Great food and very friendly staff. Don't be fooled by it being a food truck. This crew knows how to touch your soul with food
Nick Simmons
Amazing food! Work down the road and come here regularly! The best sauce I've ever had!
Stacy Weeks
Very good Q. The garlic butter shrimp and rib combo is my go to. Smoked to perfection.
Ada Cruz
Blessings... It was my first time going there, thanks be to God because Subway was closed. I had grilled chicken 🍗 and potato 🥔 salad. It was delicious 😋. Maybe chicken a little dry, and a bit more of seasoning would of been good 👍. This is sooooo funny, a while back I wanted grilled chicken and have you guys right there in our neighborhood, and went all the way to a place in Brandon that I thought it had grilled chicken and didn't. I had to have something I didn't want neither enjoyed that day. Oh well!! Blessings.
Josh Fox
Food was excellent. Chicken was dripping moist. Highly recommend. The gentleman at the window was very friendly also.
Lee Claxton
I ate at Sims smoked foods today, in Seffner. Off the wall good bbq. Can't wait to eat there again! Awesome pork, homemade collards, perfect southern sweet tea. Great $ value too! Happy friendly service, very clean for an outdoor eatery. Ill be back. Ask for "The money sauce"
Peter B
Smoked mullet was excellent! A little tricky for me to find; I drove by it twice. I am glad I persisted.
Susan Ramos
Best job I have ever had!! Everything is made with LOVE!! If you haven't tried Ms. Aprils sweet potatoe pie it is a must!! She also makes the best homemade tea and lemonade!! Ms. Aprils favorite quote " Wash your hands"!!!
Susie
Wonderful food, pulled pork sandwiches & they smoked my turkey breast for Thanksgiving! Very friendly ❤️🌞🌅
Fernando Martin
Best barbecue sauce and pulled pork I've had a long time. Definitely stopping in whenever I'm in the area. Hats off to you guys!
No lie I waited about 5 minutes after my lunch and went back and bought 4 pounds of pulled pork to take home to my family. This place its the spot with that pulled pork and secret BBQ sauce!
J R
Dry rub seasoning they used on the brisket was really good. Beans were weak and cold and the turkey rice was ah ok. Not worth the $15 that was paid that's for sure.
Travis
Great barbecue I personally like the chicken and ribs all the sides are great and they also have a lot of other great choices.
TowGoat Whitmore
I been down with Rol before he blew up started with f350 and smoker at corner of Parsons and windhurst this man can cook but my last two visit’s just don’t hit the same my meat be dry and he ain’t never sent no meat out like that maybe he hired new cook idk
Actually gonna change my review to 4 from two being mistakes happen
cornelius cox
Happen to be driving in the area and stopped by due to the wonderful smell and I bought a half a slab of smoked ribs. Turned out to be a great idea because the ribs were delicious, fall off the bone goodness, with a flavor that will make you want to come back.
So I shall 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
slade donavan (LShadowKrillz)
Absolutely hands down best sandwich I've had in my life. Stopped in with my brother for lunch on the way to a jobsite both agree best brisket we've ever had.
Jason Williams
Really enjoyment the brisket metal from this place. I couldn't tell that I was eating food from a food truck.
Christine w
This place has amazing food! The prices are a little bit higher, but it's so worth it. The turkey legs, brisket and green beans are my personal favorite. Ive never been disappointed.
Latissa Gordon
Absolutely over the top! All the way around, great food great service!!!
Arielle Lopez
The food was so good 😊 we had the shrimp and grits and pulled pork sandwich. Will definitely be back again. …
Max Max
always fresh food, everything is delicious. I recommend to try smoked mullet
SnipesUdown01 Originals
Listen, every review besides mine and then some. I ordered the 8 cluster crab legs and it's worth every penny. Every piece of meat was cooked perfectly and none of the legs were skimpy on meat as well. And FORGET dipping in melted butter, you're gonna dip it in the juices at the bottom of the bag because that seasoning is pure flavor. Throw a pretty sweet rewards points program and they got a customer for life. 6 out of 5 stars 🔥👏🏼
James Griffin
Great tasting food and excellent customer service!
Arlethia Boykin
Customer service is great. Sauce and ribs are good. Mac and cheese taste like it's from the box, baked beans taste canned. I asked for a roll but got plain white bread. All of the sides we not available. I'm so disappointed because we drove all the way from Tampa to eat here. 50 bucks later and we were left with a belly full of just okay food.
Josie Hardy
This food truck has the BEST smoked bbq I ever tasted! The snow 🦀 platters was worth it.😀 I ate the bbq so fast I forgot to take a picture.😂😂😂🤦. …
Briceratops 2277
Ribs were amazing, best I've had in awhile.
Order taker was young and not at all helpful.
They were out of pretty much everything.
The mullet tasted like smoked ocean, but the really bad part was it wasn't scaled or deboned. So every single bite was either a scale or bone, or both if you were lucky.
Got the crab and that was decent, corn was okay too, bit too much seasoning, and I like seasoning, but man it was drenched. If I ever did go back I would get the ribs 100, but I doubt I'll go back, just overall lacking.
anthony lovett
Great down to earth staff.Good portions of great tasting food at fair prices. Some very popular menu items have disappeared from the menu.
Lorraine Friedman
Let me just say 5 stars are not enough for the food, portions, friendliness and the short wait! I had the shrimp and grits and I am blown away by the great taste! Paid twice the amount for a quarter of the serving for brunch at another restaurant. Never again!!! My sister in law got the crab leg dinner and it was better than anywhere we’ve been and again price and portions omg! Thank you Naomi & Junior for such great food and service! I will be back weekly! Much love! ***** I am now addicted to the brisket!!
Sharon Huff
Friendly atmosphere.
Little wait but The food was awesome.
Glenn Sweeting
There’s a reason they are rated so highly! Best brisket ever and wonderful service! Stopped by on a whim and was not disappointed! Ordered two smoked mullet, the brisket family meal with baked beans and potato salad. Beans could use a little work but everything else was absolutely delicious. Even the bbq sauce! Will go back again and again. Thanks Sims!
Kenyatta Shaw
The best food in town! You can’t get any better than this!!!
Edgar Joseph
Amazing food. Freshly made. Price's are dead on. Will be back again!
Bobby Dotson
You get a Lot's of food for your money and it is good
Disco DonutOperator
If you're anywhere within 500 miles of Sims Smoked BBQ & Seafood, you need to go see them and eat!
Not sure what I like more, the Smoked Brisket or the Shrimp and Grits - seriously, 11/10 rating on everything I've tried!!!!! Amazing service, awesome people, even better food!
James Romero
This place is on point! Got crab legs and shrimp. Outstanding. Great vibes. Definitely our kind of cooking. Just moved here and will definitely be a regular.
matthew summerall
Yes yes yes!!! Until today I had only had the smoked mullet which is awesome! I got a rack of ribs today along with some mullet and I am gonna tell you right now that these are some of the best ribs I have ever had!! Can’t wait to try more of the menu. The whole experience is great from the food to the people that work there.
Roger Stephens
Phenomenal Smoked Ribs..just absolutely the best I've ever had, four huge ribs, garlic butter corn and beans...everything was the BOMB!!
Anthony Shennett
Restaurant quality, no lie. Had the shrimp so good and great price. Wish i lived closer I'd be here everyday!
stan mcmahan
Be sure to dip in the sauce to get full flavor experience.
Bolo Chinasa
Awesome spot for some smoked cooking...nice setup and friendly owners..highly recommended
Mario Martinez
The best crab legs ive ever had. PERIOD! The manager Naomi was beyond amazing. The shrimp is also a favorite of mine but EVERYTHING they have to offer is exceptional. I highly recommend them not only for their food but also for the great customer service. you couldnt ask for better food if your own mother cooked it.
Rebecca Borders
Absolutely good food! Love their pork sandwiches but you need to get there earlier in the evening cause they sell out fast! Especially on Friday and Saturday! Also their ribs and chicken ain't bad either.
Delene Nelson
Best food truck we have ever experienced!!! Heading to the Tampa Florida airport, came across this little food truck at US 92 and County Road 579 in Seffner Florida.
The ribs fell off the bone & melted in our mouth!! The barbecue sauce was tangy & delicious, Like nothing I have ever tasted!! Then went on to the garlic shrimp tray, I have no words it was delicious, beachy southern with just the right amount of heat!!
DO NOT MISS THIS PLACE this place if you are in the area!!! I’m no food critic but I would give this one 10 stars if I was!!
Demario Green
Best Seafood place to eat at. Proof in the picture. Enough said.
T.L. Anderson
They should stipulate that they don't always have crawfish. The prices are decent: $13 for a meal with 2 sides. The sides were small, the baked beans and turkey leg tasted okay, the turkey leg was a good size, and the brisket, garlic potatoes, and garlic eggs were really good.
Cody Johnson
Been looking at this place for a min, so glad I finally stopped in, the pulled pork was amazing, I will be back . If you haven't tried I recommend!
Felicia Ogilby
Delicious !!!!
I Live In Clearwater. I Came To Seffner To Visit My Mom. She Suggested This Place. We Split A Rib Dinner, With A Side Of Corn. The Ribs Were Fall Off The Bone Tinder. The BBQ Was Perfectly Balances. It's Clearly A Mustard Base, But Was NOT Mustardy.
The Corn Was Covered In A Seasoned Sauce, We Decided To Dip The Ribs In The "Corn Sauce". WOW! So Glad We Tried That. It Was A GREAT Combo. If You Order Ribs, Ask Them If The Will Give You A Side Of The Sauce (corn comes in). You'll Be Glad You Did. My Mom & I Are Full From This Dinner Plate & There Is Still Food Left. Portion Size Is Great For The Price Too.
I Will Definitely Be Back To Try More Items On Their Menu.
Morgan Jordan
My family and I had been looking for an awesome local bbq place that had GOOD BBQ. Tried to order food from smokey bones yesterday but my order was cancelled because they could not fulfill the order so everyone was disappointed so I had googled bbq food trucks near me and I came across Blake's Best BBQ that was supposed to be located on the corner of 92 and 579 in the subway parking lot so I take my daughter and drive down there and I see Sims Smoked bbq and seafood so I get out and order from them because the food smelled amazing! I'm glad I did because when I got it home and we started eating, everything was absolutely amazing! Ribs were nice and smokey and incredibly tender but still has texture with a nice smoke ring! The collard greens were out of this world! And the pulled pork sandwich was to die for! The bbq sauce they give on the side goes so well with it and has lots of flavor! They do a fantastic job over there and the prices are awesome! I HIGHLY recommend SIMS Smoked bbq and seafood!! Absolutely Amazing!! ❤❤❤❤
richard dinsdale
Co-worker and I went for lunch and I have to say some of the best beef brisket I've ever had in my life. My co-worker got the pulled pork sammich, he said it was fire I have to agree. I also ordered a side of the garlic taters best damn garlic taters I've had cajun style.
Tammy Edwards
OMG! I drove about 20 mi to get a rib dinner, garlic butter eggs-side order...they are Tasty!, Tender!, Not overly salted!, For my two sides, I had Mac n Cheese! Mm mm Good!
Mercedes Forbes
JUST GO! ITS EVERYTHING U WANT IN BBQ AND SEAFOOD. THE BBQ SAUCE,BAKED BEANS AND MAC N CHEESE ARE MY FAVORITES. MY FAV GO TO BBQ SPOT
Shantel 555
The truth.
The whole truth.
And nothing but the truth.
So. Help. Me. Gawwwd!!!
Never imagined even remotely liking anything that came out of a food truck. As a result I've passed by this truck for YEARS and never thought about stopping. My guy suggested we "just stop by and try it" last night. We did and I'm so glad.
We got a half slab of ribs, garlic shrimp tray (with corn, eggs and potatoes), the turkey rice, baked beans and sweet potatoe pie.
Everything and I mean everything was incredible- with the exception of the pies. Neither of us was a fan of those. But the actual food was....#everything.
The service was good too. The young man at the window acknowleged us right away and was super helpful in answering our questions about the menu.
I'll absolutely be visiting again soon. 🍴
Linda Mayes, RN
Best ribs!! We travel far to get these ribs!
*August 3, 2019: So we just went to Sim's BBQ and for the second time tried the crab tray. This is the best!!! We highly recommend it, just look at my fiance's face of pure happiness! Thank you!!
Savannah R
Must stop at the food truck if you're coming down I-4, right off the highway, awesome barbeque, brisket, smoked mullet, crab legs, shrimp, corn cobs. Just downright amazing. Baked beans and potato salad were perfect. Prices are decent. Louisiana flair. Best food truck in Seffner, Tampa, Brandon, Lakeland hands down 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 …
John Roshio
The meat they smoke is SO good. I'm not a huge fan of their sauce, but the seasoning they use for the meat is good.
Leslie
I have passed Sims so many times on my way home and was always curious. I love good BBQ. Sims was not just good, but GREAT BBQ. My only regret is that I didn't stop by there sooner. I will definitely be a regular customer.
Dorothy James
This was my first time visiting, and I must say I was not disappointed at all. The B-B- Que chicken was delicious tender and omg...the sauce 😋. The ribs, smoke mullet, green beans, corn on the cob, sweet potato pie and fresh squeezed lemonade was amazing. I difently plan on visiting again. …
Porsha Roberts
I usually come here for a smoked mullet. TOday i grabbed my usual mullet and my mom and son enjoyed smoked crab legs. I'm Always ,always ,ALWAYS satisfied and FULL. Food off the grill is amazing. Always friendly service. Service w a smile. I started bringing my family members w me when I come now. I love this spot. Don't mind traveling to get it either!
John Kemper
This place is awesome! Beat smoked meat we have had in Florida since moving here from Texas! I recommend the leg quarters.
Kellie Stephens
🤤 Great food ! Seasoned perfect has never let me down , my lil go to on lunch break ! 🔥 🔥 🔥 …
Anthony King
I would highly suggest not trying the smoked mullet as it is very oily.
Nothing bad about the service or the business itself. I had never tried mollet and thought I would it just personally was not to my liking.
Next time I'll be sure to try the beef and pork is it smell delicious also
David Symington
Very good brisket dinner, and the pulled pork sandwich was tasty as well.
Everything was cooked to perfection and had a wonderful smokey taste. Well done, and we will be back!
Ryan Thompson
The meat was good but I asked them about the bread before I got a sandwich and they told me they had hamburger buns so I would buy it when it comes with cheap Walmart bread so mad when I got home and seen the bread
Clay Cook
Food is made to order don't go there thinking you're going to rush in and out then make sure your food is hot and fresh everything I had so far is delicious you should really try it
Paul allen
Excellent food. Awesome crab leg platters with a good spice to it. I also tried the brisket and crawfish and they were pretty good. I'd recommend giving this place a try!
Jeff Berman
Only been here once and I had the brisket sandwich and it was delicious and their sauce is really good too, the meat was tender the bun was nice and soft
Dennis A
I stop by for some lunch today. Had the Crab Legs and Shrimp. Tell you the truth. It was one of the best meals I've had in all 48 states. And the service. Outstanding. 👍👍👍. To all of you that work hard there. …
Aimee Nunez
Great atmosphere, amazing food. Staff catered to my needs as well as every customer I saw stop by. One of the staff even gave out free sweet tea while we waited for the food. Nice out door tables were maintained and clean.
Rodney Hayes
The FUBU of the food truck. You guys know what they do well and they have a smoke guru.
I just had the chicken dinner and I am really appreciative of that dinner.
I just want you young man to remember sell the experience and be more engaging with each customer. Can't wait to see you guys grow..
Regulus AHAYAH 'Bath Kol' & Garden of Eden (Hadassah)
I just started coming to SimsSmoked 2-3 Weeks ago. You can smell the food that they make while driving down the street. Haven't found seafood that taste like Miami Seafood until I tried Simsmoked. I was home sick for some good seafood and Island foods. Not Home sick anymore.
When I come in town to visit....This is one of my "Favorite" seafood places. Well worth it!
Naomi is a very pleasant kind woman on top of the food being "Great."
From a scale from 1 to get 10
I give them:
🌟 🌟🌟 🌟🌟 🌟🌟🌟
Brown Sugar
Food smelled really great. Had a very big menu selection. It’s nothing like southern food. Will more than likely be back when visiting.
KevUnlimited
One of those city gems! Literally the best at what they do! We haven’t been there in a while due to us living in Orlando, but we’ll make it back there soon! (we reminisce about the food often lol) We get the mullet and it’s always amazing. The owners are friendly and I really wish they would expand so we could get it more often! If your in the Seffner/Brandon area you’re crazy if you don’t stop by!!!!
Susie Q
The best seafood & smoked mullet I've had & I'm from NYC😍.Great customer service and very well mannered young men.We will definitely be back when we return to Florida.
Stephanie Klick
WOW...driving through a new town, searched restaurants on Google. sims BBQ popped up first, so we went. Got ribs and shrimp. Great food, great service, and friendly guests.
Laura Guthrie
Best bbq, best seafood, LOVE their food. Wish the collards were available more often but plenty of other good choices. Mac n cheese is delish!
Billy Olsen
I tried ribs a couple of weeks ago and they were excellent!
today beef brisket, garlic boiled eggs, and potato salad and it was absolutely delicious. Definitely would recommend this place
Life As Nashay
Food is delicious but the app needs to be more savvy friendly. Sometimes they are really busy and calling isn’t the best option so I like to put my order in early through the app but constantly kept running into error messages and told to choose options that were blank.
Kenneth Kuk
Truly just one word to describe the bbq - wow.
You roll up to Sims and have some doubts, but you can’t judge a book by its cover. I owe them an apology for doubting..
Bbq smoked to perfection.... ribs were awesome. The sides were “I’d eat them on their own” type of great.
Don’t hesitate to swing by - you won’t regret it!
Naomi Rieves
Great Great Great !!! Everything was Great 👍🏽 the young lady at the window has such a beautiful spirit.. so sweet and I got a chance to speak with her mom and they are the beautiful inside out .. and they can COOKK !! The gentleman was very respectful and the BBQ was amazing .. I love sims smoke I eat there almost everyday! Thank you for great customer service 😁
Sam Green
Very under priced for the amount and quality food . I moved here from Orlando and gave up on finding amazing seafood .I appreciate your art of cooking amazing food .thank you. I wanted to add yes sometimes there's a wait but just like any fine dining reservations are a must. I've ate here 3 separate times and definitely please don't change a thing .will be in tonight
Ain’tNoReason
Stopped on my way home to Lithia for the turkey legs for the old man so I wouldn't have to cook tonight. Decided I would get some chicken for myself. Well the chicken didn't make it home. The aroma got to me so much that I had to take a bite and all I can say is that I'm glad I was alone in the car because I could not believe how good it was. I was oohing and ahhing and oh my goshing as i wolfed it down. You work magic. The barbecue sauce is great and I will definitely be back for more and I'm going to tell everybody about it. Thank you!
Jacob Hartman
The food was amazing and the hospitality was amazing. I love family owned businesses especially family owned restaurants for both of those reasons and usually they don’t have both. But sim’s smoked had it all 10/10!!!
Robin Denise Wynn aka Cookie
I love this place and the service.when I lived in Brandon I was here 3,4 days aweek now I drive from St Petersburg worth the drive smoked mullet my fav ❤️
Marleta Berryman
This is a food truck on MLK in Seffner. The usual smoked bar-b-que is available. They also have turkey legs, smoked mullet and turkey n' rice. The people are very friendly. The portions are hugh and one plate could feed two. The prices are very reasonable, especially with the big portions. Great dinner to pick up and bring home. They also cater parties, etc.
Oliver Medina
Went there today and the food was great. Customer service was good too. I high recommend this place. I will definitely be going back soon. Wish you guys much success..
Stephanie Woerner

I will be going back to this place. They had the best smoke mullet that you ever had. They're potato salad and macaroni with kickin. Maybe next time I can give me some collars and from smoke mullet spread.
Melanie Rivera
The service was great and the food outstanding. We call ahead of time and when we get there our food is always ready
We always get the crab leg platter. Highly recommended

Slow down and pull into this place you won’t regret it! Damn good service, excellent seafood, and top notch ribs! Had to buy a bottle of home made BBQ sauce! Thank you 🙏 …
Rocky McCulloch
The meat is moist not dry, the BBQ sauce is the best I've tasted in the Tampa Bay area. Start with the BBQ sandwich and you will see that I'm right about what I've said.

Fantastic, live in Brandon, drive all the way to Apollo Beach to the Dog House. Read reviews on Sims, not 1 review under 5 stars. This will be our go to BBQ joint from now on.
Julie Terrell
Great bbq with a mustard based sauce. Got mullet also, have had a craving for years, not as good as I remembered
B Kas
Outstanding food. It's super popular so be prepared for some menu items to be sold out if you don't get there early.
Kay Guerard
Pulled pork was smoked and smokey, with just a bit of sweet and a bit of mustard on top. Neither overpowered the bbq.
Yulonda Oglesby
Smoke mullet a ten and big, garlic scrimp tray a ten. I found my new seafood place!!! My uncle had the rib tray and he said the meat was good. I will be back👌👌👌👌👌 …
Tiffany Miller
Best bbq sauce around seffner, brandon area, and always ask for extra. Try the crab clusters and you won't be disappointed.
Donald Vega
I have only tried the smoked mullet. They are small at this time of year but the seasoning and the smoke give this fish awesome flavor! Gonna try the ribs next.

This might be the best brisket I have had. Keep up the good work my dudes.

My friend and I ate pulled pork sandwiches here this week. The meat was soooooooo moist. I could have eaten it without bbq sauce, but the sauce made it even better. We demolished those sandwiches lol. See y'all again soon.
