13 Best Barbeque Restaurants near West Hartford

“The food was awesome 🤩 1 thing I want to say first is that I’m so happy that they have a Jamaican/ West Indian Restaurant here in West Hartford I no longer have to drive to Hartford to buy Jamaican food. I ordered a large oxtail with rice & peas and veggies. The meat was tender and juicy with lots of gravy on top and some on the rice, the rice was moist not hard at all and the veggies were steamed not soggy with a bit light crunch on them. The Restaurant is family oriented you can definitely eat in and have lunch or dinner with your family and friends and enjoy a great meal. I will definitely be back and also recommend this place to everyone at work.“

“As a former military serviceman I walked in and immediately felt at home. This place pays tribute to servicemen and women like few others. The service was amazing, the gentleman behind the counter was one of the nicest I’ve come across. He was prompt and attentive and kept a smile on. I’m beyond impressed and would recommend to ANYONE that loves good BBQ at a fair price!“

“Carl’s has great food, wonderful staff and the portions are large and in charge. Beverage offerings are great and fresh desserts are available daily. If you ask, you’ll be steered toward the day’s highlights, and you won’t be disappointed. Requests are accommodated and honored. We’ve been going here for about a generation, and Carl can’t be beat for jerk and bbq.“

“We ordered 2 entrees and had a delivery company bring it to our hotel about 10-15 away. Oh myyyyy, sooo good! I was super happy that not a single thing down to condiments were absent from this order; in other words, Black-Eyed Sally's was on their toes and didn't forget anything for us weary travelers. The pulled pork, chicken sandwich, cole slaw, fries, and cornbread were delicious and we ate every morsel. If we're ever in the Hartford area again, I would love to go to this restaurant in person, but as it was, we actually felt the vibe from this place through the food; truly we did.“

“Their ability to cater an event is by far the best experience I’ve ever had. They catered my wedding two weeks ago and everyone absolutely loved the food. They came on time, the food was hot and fresh, and their service and professionalism was top notch. I’m going to use them two more times next year for events I’m doing.“

“Got the garlic parm crusted chicken it was a bit salty but good the potato looked fake but was ok but again very salty and not very loaded. Also got the onion appetizer and it was ok nothing like Texas roadhouse blooming onion but they tried at least. Overall pretty good but still prefer Texas roadhouse“

“Unassuming takeout only West Indian Restaurant. I have been a few times and the food is always excellent! I love the Jerk Chicken, peas and rice with Oxtail Gravy and Stewed Cabbage. Just the right amount of heat and the smoky flavor of the chicken is perfect! The cabbage is sweeter than I am used to, but I enjoyed it. It helped cut the heat. Parking can be difficult when it's busy, but so worth it!!!“
