Best restaurant ever. Small and cozy. Service good. The Chicken Tender plate is Bussin. We love Bozos!
The best bbq pork outside Memphis! Excellent onion rings, grilled chicken salad, homemade pies, smiling waitresses providing with a hometown vibe. Expect to see a cross section of farmers, families, retirees and BlueOval employees. A bit divey like all the BEST bbq joints. Grandma agrees with all of the above and she worked the counter at Cozy Corner as a teenager so she would know.
Bozo's dependable Memphis-style BBQ is served in an old school diner that really takes you back to the 50's and 60's. I'm not a fan of mayo-based slaw, but they also offer vinegar slaw, which paired well with the pork and medium sauce. Great service while I sat on a bar stool.
Food was great. BBQ shoulder will not disappoint. Need to grab a fried pie too. So nice to go to a nostalgic place such as this that has just been doing the same thing for years! Walk in the place and it feels like the 50's or 60's in decor. A scene from Johnny Cash's movie I Walk the Line was shot here.
Just stopped in on our way to check on some property and saw this Gem from the Highway. We ordered burgers and fries and also Fried Pies. The burgers were amazing nice and old fashion. The fries were well seasoned and hot...delicious The Cherry Fried Pie was Phenomenal! I've never had that before and I wished I ordered 2...Lol! This is a place you want to checkout and you will not be disappointed.
