5 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Augusta

“This place has great food and drinks great service. Great staff too.“

“Visited the Countryside Diner tonight for the first time. The food was absolutely amazing! The steak tip meal was hands down top tier! The steak melts in your mouth as well as the mashed potatos! My bf said his haddock basket was delicious and perfectly fried! They have Great portions as well! They also have a bakery section full of yummy goodies that are just as amazing! The owner was very nice and made the experience even more delightful! I highly recommend this restaurant! It's comfort food at it best! We will definitely be going back!“

“The place is very loud but that is to be expected because it is a family joint. The service is good but it can be hit or miss. Last visit the server constantly forgot things so we sat waiting for food that did not come when everyone else had their food and then we had to remind the server (they passed by our table multiple times, so we got the impression they forgot). The server also seemed less organized than many of the others. Ordered steak medium rare and it was unevenly cooked with some parts medium rare and others well done. Other people at the table also ordered steak and theirs was done properly, so some inconsistency with food requests. Otherwise, food is always delicious and portions are enormous, especially salad, which is one of my favorite dishes!“

“Food is always excellent and cooked to perfection. Never had a complaint.“

“Always love the food and service here. We come back every few months and share a great meal. One of the best BBQ in Maine.“
