    Andy's BBQ sells a wide range of things outside your typical American BBQ, including bubble tea and lassis! I tried their pineapple lassi and it was so good! Def wanna check out their wings and burgers sometime!

    Wow...it's been a while since we've been back. My wife and I stopped in Monday noontime to return a couple of large catering boxes from a birthday party our son hosted on Saturday and to pocket a $5.00 coupon for returning the boxes. The natural thing to do, of course, was to also get lunch and use the coupon. We did carry out. I went with one of my favorites, burnt tips and my wife, pulled pork. Both were sandwiches, but I just took the big chunks of beef and pulled them apart and ate them with the juice that came in the container. All pretty good, maybe a touch too much fat with them both...but good. Nothing else to add to my previous reviews, except to say there is no table service.

    I've been to Andy Nelson's perhaps a dozen times over the last decade or so, but not since the pandemic before yesterday. My 2014 visit remains accurate. "... Walking into Andy Nelson's is like stepping onto the set of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. The host and crew of the show would leave happy and sated. The nouveau-riche, intellectually self-impressed and well-dressed may feel a tad out of place by the exceedingly casual decor and aesthetic. The place is not for them, for it lacks tablecloths and other trappings of fine dining. If you like to wipe your greasy and sauce-covered hands on your own sweatshirt and jeans, however, Andy's is for you...." I would not change one word of my description of the ambience. As for the food itself, usually I order "Sammies" (i.e., sandwiches) and often the "express", which adds two sides and a drink. In 2014, I wrote that "... The down-home southern cooking is nothing short of delectable, the menu represents both diversity and value, and service is excels in its prompt perfection...." On this most recent visit, my wife ordered the brisket tips, which seemed tasty but tougher than expected. My pit beef sandwich was perfection as always. I ordered the baked beans and collard greens. Don't turn your nose up at the collards - Andy makes them yummily caloric. Sandwich fixin's are minimal: horseradish, raw onions and an assortment of sauces. You can have any kind of bread you want, as long as its hamburger rolls. Be prepared to carry your own platter back to your picnic table, and to bus your own dishes. Certainly an experience not to be missed, but I'm withholding a star because in 2024 I want more, fresher and sturdier, bread choices, more fixin's, and more tender brisket tips. I call 'em as I see 'em.
