We were on our last day of a 7 day vacation and my Son wanted SC BBQ before heading back to FL. He found this online and thank goodness he did! Great BBQ and the best potato salad I've ever had. We definitely recommend eating here.

The customer service was trash, no smile, no greeting, the guy was on the phone and brushed us off! When it was time to order he answered his phone and walked off!! They were out of a lot of menu items and drinks!! Our food was done 5 mins after we sat down meaning it wasn’t fresh! My child chicken tenders were black I’m thinking the grease was burnt or old!! The hash was trash and the bread was hard!! The pulled pork and macaroni was the only thing good…. I definitely won’t be eating here again!! Mainly because of the customer service

Food has gone down hill. It use to be so good. Guy at register was more intrested with stupid game on phone than taking my order. Had to repeat myself numerous times. Most annoying. And they were out of brisket. Won't be going back any time soon if at all. And the food use to be soooo good. Sad.

I'm sorry for this but I received a delivery order, after really looking forward to some good smoked wings I was extremely disappointed to say the least. The wings were cooked so long they were hard and dried out that they are inedible. Also the order was short due to 1 of them wasn't an actual wing but a broken piece off something else. While the mac & cheese was ok it also was dry and green beans were also ok. Both of the side items were way overpriced for the amount of serving you get. The biggest problem is having to trash the wings I paid for since they were to hard to eat. $8.00 wasted. Should mention this was Columbia, SC location. Other locations may be good & other food here may be have only had the wings. When wings are not large jumbo ones they can't cook that long or ends up being very little meat under skin that is to hard to eat or even pull apart to get off bone. Sorry but yeah.

This is my favorite place to get pulled pork and brisket in Columbia. I really like their Mac and cheese and fries as well! They have a bunch of different sauces to try on the meat. I highly recommend this place.

I'm from out of town and I thought I was about to eat good. I was very disappointed. The mac was dry and the ribs.. well I've had better. I don't recommend this place to anyone

WASTED MY MONEY! Last time I ordered here they gave me OLD brisket. Wet on the bottom, dry and hard on the top. Hard to chew, almosy like jerky. My green beans were piping hot (not tasty either) and my meat was practically cold. Also the vegetables are an afterthought instead of actually good. No plans on patronizing again anytime soon. (I'll spend my money at that nice place over on Hampton st ?)

Ordered The Pot Smokers through a delivery service. I ordered the wings, which were very good. They were better than I expected. Good flavor and good crisp to the wings. I also ordered the pulled pork sandwich and fries, which were also good. The fries are the crispy seasoned fries and they had a great taste. The same goes for the pulled pork sandwich also had a good flavor. It wasn't saucy, which I like. Their BBQ sauce is good as well. To be delivered, the food was definitely enjoyable. I definitely will give them another try for pick up or dine in.
Didnt have beef so i substituted it with wings.. They added no sauce after i said sweet sauce.. Didnt get the baked beans nor the mac and cheese i ordered and paid for.. Meat just taste like smoke.. Very disappointed.. First time trying and Ill never be back!!

They were able to accommodate our entire huge family. The brisket was on point, the chicken was juicy, the ribs were tender, the pulled pork was beautiful. The sides were amazing, my Mom is so picky about her coleslaw and loved it. Go here, you won't be disappointed. Five different sauces vinegar, tangy, sweet, mustard and Alabama white. We all ate well passed stuffed and still had leftovers. Hands down the best BBQ in Columbia! The customer service was great and the kitchen cranked out 14 dinners like it was nothing.

The greens were gross and tasted like grease. The bread was hard, the short ribs were flavorful but dry. The baked beans tasted like they came out of a can. The tables had not been cleaned in between patrons. My husband enjoyed the mac and cheese, though.

Doing illegal drugs used to be law enforced against. Now people mock the system since it's become so corrupt that nothing is done anymore about crime in plain sight like the title this junkyard named itself.
