“I had the Mac n cheese brisket bowl and omg absolutely amazing. I'm not usually a big fan of Mac and cheese but the combination in this dish is absolutely phenomenal. Customer service was hand down absolutely amazing as well. Everyone was so kind, will absolutely make a 2 hour drive to come back and eat here! 10/10“
“Deeeeelicious! This is one of the few food places still open in the mall. It's no surprise, since the food is awesome. The chicken teriyaki and rice is my favorite! The service is always great, and the food is fresh. This is a place we go to regularly!“
“I've had a few different experiences here and some have been fantastic service with a wide variety of options. Sometimes the servers are more intuitive and explain things well and other times, they are hands off. Each time, I order the experience.Overall, I love the food, so I'll continue to return. I do think it's pretty pricey, so expect a certain level of quality to the overall experience from service to food.“
“Along with great meats, most everything on the menu is gluten free! They also offer gluten free buns if you’re wanting a sandwich and they have many vegetarian options too.Vegetarian options: For vegetarians they offer delicious salads, a grilled portabella sandwich, spicy black bean burger, and either jackfruit bbq nachos or a jackfruit bbq sandwich!“
“Holy cow, holy pig, turkey and chicken.I have heard good things about this restaurant for quite a while, I finally got the opportunity to stop in place an order to go and took it home which was an hour away.As an avid BBQ lover and one that thoroughly enjoys Smoked Meats I will say that this was one of the best experiences as far as the flavor the texture the aroma of smoke and the Exquisite selection of sauces. 63 years old and traveled quite a bit in search of the mom-and-pop, Korner Shack and local barbecue from around several States in multiple places in each state Bandanas in Bloomington Illinois has now earned a place very high up on my list...Dusty Rhoads...kwjP.s.Plenty of gluten-free options...“
“Great food and fantastic service. Chatted at the pitmasters when first came in and as we left after eating at a picnic table outside. Owner was there taking care of lunch for his employees with food from somewhere else. Nice touch and was a super nice and BBQ chatty owner. :)The Brisket was very well smoked if a bit salty but I am fine with that. I thought it was brined first but was assured it was not. The chicken, pulled pork and ribs were all great as well with good smoke. The spicy sausage was really good. Too much for my wife but not insane to me but a very nice spice bite.We got the green beans, baked beans and coleslaw as sides. The green beans were OK, nothing special to me. The baked beans were interesting. At first you get a "oh, this is a savory bean" and then the sweet comes in and it is an interesting play that finishes with a bit of heat on the back end but nothing crazy at all. With the slaw, if you like KFC's, you will like the flavor. This is a MUCH finer shred but the flavor is very similar.Overall, great BBQ joint. Seating is just a couple picnic tables outside but that was enough for us even on a cool day. We live in Peoria but my wife will be coming to Bloomington monthly for quilting fabric and I can see this being the lunch stop quite often. :)Parking: Relatively small lot - maybe 15 spots - but since it is primarily takeout this shouldn't be an issue as the turnover is pretty good. We were there late lunchtime (around 3pm) and there were 6-7 spots.“
