A Really Good Home Cooked Pork Sandwich written by

Last visited this restaurant on May 03, 2008
I am stationed at the Norfolk Naval Base and Googled BBQ with several hits. After clicking each one and some reviews I decided Megallons was the best choice to drive to (there’s not one near the base). Being from Texas I wanted something I thought would taste close to home. The location is small next to a used car shop but is painted PINK so you should find it. I was going to get some sliced beef sandwiches but he does not sell beef. I opted for the sliced pork. The owner was an older chubby gent but very nice and gave you that home cooked and proud of it feeling. I’m sure I looked out of place with my 40 year old yuppie look while he spoke to customers about missing fishing lately. After a few minutes he gave me my food and with his friendly smile and attitude I left him a tip in his tip jar. He did sell other items like the half or full rack of pork ribs, cole slaw, chicken and other items. The sliced pork sandwiches I ordered were way better than I expected and the sauce was a very good sweet and spicy flavor. I would get his milder sauce if you don’t like spicy. His regulars seemed to really trust him and he them. I told him I found him through Google and he smiled and didn’t even know he could be Googled. I wanted to laugh but I thought that would be insulting. All in all he invited me to come back and I think next time I will stay to eat instead of getting it to go.
