Reviews for City Barbeque in Columbus, OH
We use to love city BBQ, service was great, but so much of the food's flavor has changed. We were disappointed in the sides. we... ordered greens, cobbler, Mac and cheese and fries. The greens were extremely salty , the cobbler had almond extract taste toit that I do not remember being in the cobbler before. If it was used it was not as strong as it is now. Definitely refer totheir allergens list on the website. We should have checked prior to ordering fries and didn't realize thier fries contain milkand eggs. So one of our family member visiting from out of town had a reaction to the fries. So overall the food was just a bitdisappointing and not what we expected based on what we remember City BBQ tasting like in the past. The meat was really goodthough! Read more
My family and I went after looking reviews on google for bbq. This one wasn?t far from our hotel so we decided to try it. The... guy who took our order was friendly and helpful and explained some options and which he preferred over the other. I ordered thebrisket and ribs which were $17 and it had four ribs and 4 slices of brisket which was solid for the price. Problem is theirsides are a La carte so they can get pricey. Food was out quickly but my name wasn?t called. The two people calling out orderswere both on their cellphones and I saw an order that looked like ours sitting there. I asked was it for me and they said yesthis is yours. ???????????. When the hell were you going to say something as you see me standing here waiting. To the food:the brisket and the ribs were both very good. I got corn pudding and baked beans as my sides. The corn pudding was solid butthe beans were not good. Just bland flavor. Their sweet sauce and gold version were both good. My parents had coleslaw andMac and cheese as their sides and they both didn?t like either side. My sister said the potato salad was solid. Both of mydaughters said their collard greens were just ok. So the consensus from everyone was the sides needed some work but the bbq(chicken, ribs, and brisket) were all very good. Read more
City bbq is awesome!!! I got the brisket sandwich and Mac and cheese and hush puppies and it was so good!!! I highly recommend... this place to everyone. They have so many different options and the place is constantly packed, they even had a table with allthe pick up orders on it and there were a lot, so that has to tell you this place is amazing Read more
I always go to the original location on Henderson. Quality is always consistent and as great as the pulled pork and smoked... brisket are their sides are just as good. Love the green beans and the collards both made with some of the pork. They also havesome of the best fries with some skins on in Central Ohio. Love to douse them with their Swine Wine, a spicy vinegar they havefor their pork sandwiches. Read more
Disappointing. I ordered a half slab of ribs. Three of the bones had almost no meat at all, the others were a little meatier. ... Fries were tasty, though not particularly crisp. My wife?s pulled pork was tasty, very, very fatty, making about one quarter ofit inedible. When we ordered I declined a beverage, telling the clerk that we would share a drink. She charged us for twodrinks anyway. Read more
Ordered via door dash. Portions were disappointing for the cost. The portion of brisket did not contain a single intact slice,... mostly bits and scrap pieces. Requested extra sauce in the comments because DoorDash only gives you the option to order a pintbut the city sampler only comes with one small sauce cup apparently. Fries arrived crispy and were good, baked beans were alsovery good. Read more
Pretty good brisket. Sometimes the brisket can be a little dry though. Great pulled pork. Good variety of bbq sauces. The... Macaroni is awesome and the corn cake is great. Best thing on their menu though is their banana pudding. Absolutely delicious.I highly reccomend it. Read more
Smoked turkey, smoked sausage, brisket are all fantastic! Terrific sides too. Aside from green beans & baked beans, do yourself... a favor and try their delicious chili. Read more
