“One of if not the best BBQ places in Minnesota! Luckily I live pretty close so I come somewhat frequently. Never disappointing and they run some great one off specials every Tuesday. Love the fact the meat is all served un-sauced, and there are a bunch of house made sauces to pick from including one of my favorites a mustard/vinegar type. Add on a smoked cheddar jalapeño sausage to your order and thank me later.“
“Tried the Value Menu—had a great meal, got enough to eat for less than $7. Great Brava and Piri Ranch sauces. Staff was friendly and helpful. Nicely designed interior with enough seating for lunch rush on Saturday. Bonus: Beer on tap! Outdoor patio is nicely located to the west against the building. Shop at Target before or after.“
“Finally tried out northbound smokehouse and it did not disappoint! They have both an indoor and outdoor seating area great for when weather permits! (Picnic tables outside on the patio) There are plenty of drink options from beer, cocktails, wines, to non alcoholic. I ordered the cider sidecar (7/10) and tried one of the IPAs (8/10) and thought both were pretty good. For food we got smoked wings (sweet and spicy 7/10) and cheese curds (8/10). For my main meal I got the brisket grilled cheese which was delicious! (9/10) Our server was very tentative and our food came out timely! I will be returning in the future!“
“My friends and I stumbled into this restaurant when Up Down was too packed to enjoy. It happened to be my birthday weekend so I was open to trying something new. I absolutely loved our waiter. He wasn't pushy, had a sake bomb with us, was super nice and funny, and introduced me to the Peach Cosmopolitan. YUMMY! The food was delicious and the dessert was exceptional! Will definitely be back for more!The only reason why I gave it 4 stars was because when we first walked in, I told them how many people (3), and no one said anything to me. No, "it'll be a few minutes but please have a seat" or even mentioning the fact that there were people waiting ahead of us. We stood awkwardly in front of them but eventually moved to the side when we realized we wouldn't be seated right away. We almost walked out after waiting 10 minutes but were called to be seated as we were about to Google another spot.“

“I went there with a group from my church and we all loved everything we ordered! I had the smoked pork, baked beans and cole slaw! It was all so tasty!! My daughter had the smoked turkey, gravy, and corn on the cob! We both highly recommend the food!“
“I recently visited here and was thoroughly impressed by their smoked chicken, which had a perfect smokiness without needing any sauce – a true winner in my book!The brisket and ribs were also top-notch, some of the best I've had. However, I was a bit disappointed with the macaroni and cheese; it lacked the richness I was hoping for and could use more butter and cheese.Overall, it's a place definitely worth a visit for their outstanding meats, but the sides could use a bit more attention and love“
“Detroit Ribs were TENDER & FABULOUS! Greens & Hot Water Bread (not sweet) were Good! Baked Beans & Banana Pudding were Good!Several Framed Magazine/Newspaper Award Winning/Best Articles on the Walls! Service was Respectful but a bit slow through no fault of his own! Call Ahead! ?Parking: Small number of parking spots.Wheelchair accessibility: Street/Ground Level.“
“Travel a lot in search for good BBQ. This was OUTSTANDING! Brisket and Pork were both super tender and flavorful (amazing) but the Ribs were out of this world good! Love their unique sauce as well. Top notch BBQ if you’re in the MSP area!“
“Went here for the first time last night for the half off steaks and drinks, got "pretty in pink" it was really good. Ordered filet medium but it came out rare. It was still a good piece, but not how I ordered it. Service and atmosphere were great to.“
“Be aware that if you sign up for the waitlist, it’ll tell you a time to show up and check in with the host, but then they won’t find your name on the list and tell you that you never checked in and should’ve gotten a text that we never got. Then they knew move your name to the bottom of the list where you might have to wait an hour and a half. Then no one knows what’s going on and so we have to celebrate my boyfriend’s party somewhere else. Terrible place to go wouldn’t recommend.“
“Had a classic? over lunch and it was pretty tasty! Got an unexpected call from Emily the owner. She expressed how sorry she was for how long the order took, due to unforseen circumstance. She did not have to make that phone call, but it spoke volumes about her integrity and dedication to service! Please check this place out!“
“Old Southern BBQ catered our daughter's wedding for about 250 guests. Amy and her team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect! They accommodated all of our requests without complaint. The food was amazing, we received a bunch of compliments from the guests. I highly recommend Amy, her staff and Old Southern BBQ!“
“First time I have ever had the pleasure to takeout food from Scott Jamama. We ordered for lunch. I am super impressed. The food was great. The service was great. I seriously contemplated ordering again for dinner tonight. Keep doing what you’re doing!“
“Very good BBQ. Very clean family-friendly restaurant. Clean and very quick service. No ice tea they were out. But over all the food was very flavorful. Come out and enjoy a meal with the family. Coke products, wine slushies. Plenty of parking!“
“Just moved to the area from Minneapolis and had to check out Famous Dave's. Had my toddler with me who fell asleep in the truck. My mother in law was also with me. We wanted to eat inside but didn't want to disturb the baby. So I went in to order for the family. Went in and was greeted right away. Josh ended up helping me. He let me take the menu out to decide with my family what to eat. Came back in and ordered. Josh said instead of waiting in here you can go outto your truck and I will bring it to you since your baby is sleeping. That was extremely nice of him! I appreciate Josh. Sometimes mothers need help. And he definitely did that! I will definitely be back! Oh and food was good! Thanks Josh for the great customer service!!!“
“Support this small business! One of the workers gave my kiddos fruit snacks before we even ordered! Best bbq in the area! Quality is amazing food wise, it comes out quick and hot! Ribs were fall off the bone, pulled pork equally as good! My picky 5 year old at all of his pork within 5 min it was so good! Tried 3 of the bbq sauces can’t remember all the names but they were so good we had some sauce by itself! Nice staff and overall great place!“
“The place was PACKED and wait for a table was over an hour but the servers never lost their smiles! All you can eat fish fry Friday was a great deal. Fish could have used a little salt but batter was light and it was perfectly cooked. Club sandwich had good quality ingredients and was perfectly toasted. Two for one beers rounded out a Good Friday night!“
