21 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Grove City

“Missy did a fantastic job!“

“Very seldom do I give 5 stars across the board, but this restaurant is tops, maybe because I'm from the Cincinnati area and the restaurants in Grove City appear to be better. Sorry, no pictures. When they put your food in front of you, it's hard to remember to take a picture before you dive in. Believe it or not, I had salmon at a Steak restaurant and it was good. My wife had a filet and the others had chicken finger plates (4 of us total an a baby). The food was probably 4.5 but the service and atmosphere put us over the top. I hope to return someday.“

“Smokey Bones happened to be right across the street from our hotel, so after eating at one years ago, we thought we’d give it a try. We found some unique things on the menu, including our choice, the Stacked Baked Potato. The chock full potato along with a nice side salad was perfect. If I see this restaurant again while traveling, I’d happily go again.“

“Had a wonderful dinner on 5/8/24. Food was perfect! Brittney was my server, she was always right there for anything I needed or checking on me. She was super friendly and even sat for a moment or two and talked while I was paying my bill. About half way through my meal a manager stopped and did a table touch as I call it (checked on me and how my food was or if they could do anything to improve my experience) the manager (a lady but didn’t get her name) was super polite and personable. Great staff that gave me better than a 5 star experience.“

“Pretty much make Tuesdays Rib day. Good smoky ribs that do not need sauce.In the mood for pulled pork, good sized serving. Tried it out with Original and Low Co. sauces. I really like Low Co. with the pulled pork and added a bit to the collards. Just what they needed.Always treats me appropriately when I visit.“

“I am visiting from Boston and just happen to spontaneously tour the Ohio Statehouse. Here, I lunched at HouseTaco which locates inside the Statehouse itself. The food is quick and fresh. Chef Zach prepared the tacos on-site with passion. They were delicious! What a hidden gem!!!“

“Best chicken quesadilla in recent memory, possibly of all-time! Customer service was excellent. Ordering & check out, a breeze. Bonus points for presentation on my to-go order. Check out this local gem if you’re in the area. You’ll be glad you did!“

“Run down hole in the wall with the cheapest drinks and friendly crowd, the trough in the men’s restroom however, dehumanizing but it’s probably just me“

“A diamond in the rough. The current operators are 2nd generation. Food is good and service quality is what you would expect for a small family restaurant“

“Just had dinner from the team at the Linworth location! The best BBQ in town. After having the best Texas has to offer, RayRays is every bit as good! Great to have ya so close to home!!“

“the Brisket sandwich is my fave. ribs are also very good“

“I'm from Los Fresnos, Texas I've been in all the major cities and many small towns across Texas and this BBQ is pretty darn good yall. They were even playing Stevie Ray Von. I'll be back again. Yall be good. Oh and thank you Khalil I hope I spell your name right, for the great service.“

“Their BBQ An Food is Always on Point. I Would Say That they are The Best Within 115. Miles. I am Always Pleased With Their Food An Service...“

“First time coming in, I got a to go order. The food was hot and very good! You get a lot for what you pay for. If you do get a to go order and have a cold item it will be warm. The coleslaw and ranch were in the box which made them warm. But the pulled pork was good and fries were even better. Staff was very nice and food was ready within the time frame she gave me.“

“I loved bb.q Chicken Columbus! This was my first experience with Korean fried chicken. The chicken was covered in thin crispy batter bubbles that shattered in your mouth. The chicken was not only juicy, but the sauces that coat each piece elevate the explosion of flavor. We ordered the cheeseling, Gangnam and honey garlic chicken with a side of tteokbokki. The cheeseling was the most unique chicken flavor I've ever had. The chicken was covered in a cheesey dust, a coating so heavy that you have to be careful about inhaling too close to the wing. It took me a second to appreciate the flavor because it was so unique, but I feel in love quickly. In addition to the cheeseling chicken, I loved the tteokbokki. The consistency of the sauce was so velvety, it was almost like gravy. Even though it was spicy, it was rich in flavor that was sweet and tangy.“

“Always a good time and good food with a laid back atmosphere“

“Fantastic place! I was there with family and friends, eating, drinking, watching sports on big screens AND doing live band karaoke! Can’t beat it!“

“I tried Mike's while at Henmicks Brewery which is in rural northern Delaware County (Ohio). Mike's was one of several food trucks parked prominently in the front. At the time his line of customers wasn't too long. Since I could be seen by some as a bit of a smoked meat snob, and always ready to try a new place I thought, why not. Upon ordering, I struck up a brief conversation with Mike and told him to fix me something good. He asked, "What do you like?" to which I replied "I like meat", to which he replied, while pointing his finger at me and smiling "Pork nachos". The rather heaping plate of pulled pork nachos arrived shortly. The pork had great smoke flavor. Not overpowering. I'd guess hickory but I didn't confirm. The right amount of toppings so as not to take away from the star of the show, the pork. Mike's prices were reasonable and a good value. I don't believe this truck has been in business a long time but it appeared clean inside and out and well organized. Everyone was friendly and joked with the customers creating an upbeat atmosphere. All the food coming out looked good, to the extent that my wife saw my nachos and later got her own. Sorry, no pics this time. Try Mike's.“

“We stumbled on it by accident and are happy we did!! It is under new ownership. The guy that took over had previously had a food truck down the road!! The brisket nachos are amazing!! If you love Texas BBQ, it’s the place to be!!“

“Enjoy the food and service. Kevin is always friendly and knows how to make you forget abut the stressful day you just had,“
