“Fascinating place with great food. Eclectic atmosphere with plenty of outdoor seating. We enjoyed the graffiti. Food was great. You will have to line up and place your order at the counter as you enter. It didn't take long and they brought our food out to our table. Plenty of beer options.“

“Venturing into 12 Bones Smokehouse SOUTH for dinner after a brisk day at ArborFest turned out to be a promising decision, made upon the recommendation of a friend. Arriving around 6 PM, we were greeted by the early signs of the evening rush, signaling the popularity of this local haunt. The restaurant operates straightforwardly, where patrons place their orders at the register before taking a seat. This system contributes to the casual, down-to-earth atmosphere that welcomed us.Eager for a substantial meal, I opted for the full rack of ribs, seasoned simply with salt and pepper, expecting a feast to satiate my hunger. We found ourselves seated, and it was only a short time before our meals arrived.My friends found much to enjoy in their dinners. As for myself, the generous portion of ribs proved a challenge to conquer; I managed about half, acknowledging my ambitious order. While the ribs boasted a good flavor, they leaned towards the dry and overcooked side for my taste. I've always preferred juicier ribs, and though these were satisfactory in taste, they only partially met my expectations in texture.Despite my preference for the ribs, the overall experience at 12 Bones Smokehouse SOUTH was positive. Everyone at the table was satisfied with their meals and the accompanying sides, contributing to a pleasant end to our day. The ambiance, friendly staff, and quick service made our dinner a cozy respite from the cold.For those in the area, especially after a day full of activities, 12 Bones Smokehouse SOUTH offers a hearty dining option. While my rib experience was a slightly off-mark from my juicier preferences, the overall quality of the food and the warm, welcoming environment make it a place worth visiting.“
