Ended up being one of the best things to happen to the neighborhood . Busy (but not packed), friendly staff and delicious BBQ eats. Burnt ends and pulled pork is solid.
Happy hour is great, love sitting outside. I douse everything in the NC vinegar sauce , less mature tastes might prefer the mustard-based sauces. 😛
Everything. I love the white chicken chili and cornbread . The salads are great with lots of smoked meat and healthy greens. I have never had a bad meal here
Brisket burnt ends were amazing! Collard greens and cornbread were very delicious. Good pulled pork too.
Thier brisket is amazing! Best in Virginia. Be sure to try their collard greens , Mac &Cheese , and Donna’s Cornbread ! Cozy atmosphere ! Always busy!
Brisket slice sandwich was good. Nice vibe, place was packed at 5pm on Thursday. 👍🏻
The pulled pork was excellent! I they were out of the burnt ends which was a real bummer. Hard to find them on the east coast
I'm a vegetarian , but good Lord this was still excellent. Loved my sides, and the parents enjoyed their brisket and ribs .
SFD's how do I love thee? For burnt ends , smoked turkey salad , baked beans , collard greens , chicken chili loaded baked potatoes ...yes. I <3 you.
Good sandwiches , great company. This restaurant supports local federal workers with a free sandwich during the shutdown.
Carolina Chopped Pork Sandwich , Greens, Firey Mac and Cheese , and Outstanding Corn bread , and Sweet Tea .
Loved the food. The Mac and cheese was really good. There were a few drunken locals that were annoying.
I have yet to order something I did not enjoy at Sweet Fire Donna‘s. Sadly I have not been back since COVID hit, on the upside I rarely go into the office either.
If you don't like young country music , and like it loud . I suggest you get your food to go. Other than that the BBQ was pretty good.
Oh yes this place is amazing. The beef tips are to die for!!!
Happy Hour , variety of beers , BBQ and pulled pork nachos .
The salmon salad special was worth coming back for.
OMG, the brisket ! 😍
BBQ here is the smoky real deal.
Pulled pork Cobb salad is great for lunch .
The cream corn is awesome!
Happy hour every day from 4-7!
The chicken was amazing

love the mac-n-cheese with the brisket sandwich, yum! - Melissa Bell
Great bbq ribs, chicken and pulled pork. Minimal picnic table space that’s often shared when the place gets crowded. Counter service is quick and efficient. - Bob T
The creamed corn is to die for... and the meat is pretty good too! - Maggie MacG
The baristas here are consistently nice. The space is very clean and usually not too crowded. - MK McKenzie
Great place for lunch. Hot food and cold food is $7.99/lb. good place to bring kids and let them try a variety of foods. - Kala McRae
Big, two story theater with lots of movie options. Many places to eat near by for a date. I recommend Delia's! - Caitlin Lawler
