By Bailee Harris

Old Style Bar-B-Q, a beloved Olive Branch restaurant with 47 years of cherished service, is closing its doors. Established in 1976 by Richard and Carla Dlugach, its closure has touched its customers’ hearts.

In a Facebook statement, the Dlugach family shared, “The decision to close the doors was undoubtedly a difficult one for the Dlugach family. Yet, they express their profound gratitude to the community that has embraced them for nearly five decades.”

However, the end of an era brings a new beginning, as Mike and Melinda Wilson, owners of Delta Steakhouse in Senatobia will transform the Old Style Bar-B-Q building into Mike Wilson’s Steakhouse and BBQ.
