Great find. Home made food treasure. I like sliced brisket and this may have been the best I’ve ever had. Very lean and very tender and the sweet & spicy sauce was perfect. Fried okra was amazing. Lightly breaded, perfectly fried, and the Cajun seasoning was a difference maker. Mac n cheese was very creamy and so good. Apparently their potato salad is a thing and I got a taste of it and would say it is a can’t miss item. it’s just crazy how good it was. Somehow the perfect blend of flavor. I love this place because I like the love that goes into homemade cooking and this is where you’ll find it.

We did an online pickup for the family platter that feeds 8 and it’s PLENTY of food. The meal was delicious and the staff was friendly when we went to pick it up. It was about 15 minutes late being ready, but it was a Sunday afternoon and I always expect restaurants to be busy. Thank you guys for a great meal with my family!

Always enjoyed getting a potato here with the pulled chicken. The chicken is just great full of flavor and not dry. Would also recommend the famous Ken's slawburgers. We have been here several times and everything the food is consistent and delicious.

If you're ever just outside Nashville and headed south, come check out this jem! Their barbecue sauce was sweet, the meat (pork) was moist and well done. Add a side of fried okra and it was absolute heaven. Not to mention, I love supporting small mom & pop restaurants. Give them a try!

I'm giving this 5 stars as I would rank this up there with some of the best BBQ in middle Tennessee. Brisket and pulled pork was better than average. White Cole slaw could use an upgrade (it was a little to the KFC side of quality - not bad - but I expected a little better). The sauce was good. I would have liked a little more, but it came in a small side dish container. I'm sure the waitress would have brought more if I had requested it. There was a cool sports bar vibe with all the TVs and bar. The bottom line is, the next time I get to Lewisburg we have a BBQ option. And a very good one at that.

My boyfriend and I tried this place for the first time and it was really good! It’s also decorated with a car theme so that’s cool too!

First time eating Ziffel's. I dined in for lunch on a Thursday. The server was friendly and fast. Pulled pork and sides were excellent and came out fast! Ate lunch again on a Thursday. Had the lunch special with the vinegar slaw. I enjoyed it. Ate lunch again and the slaw burger all the way is amazing!!

Catfish was not freshly cooked. Disappointed in the quality. UPDATE. The owner called me personally and made everything right! Highly recommend this restaurant.
