I used to do alot of traveling,naturally Texas and Oklahoma were the spots to try bbq. Now I am back in my home state and I can honestly say that I have found a great bbq spot to fill that gap in my life,plus they have beer!I will definitely be back.

I Door Dashed dinner. It was good, quantity was adequate and price was about average. They came all the way to Middleton so it is nice to know there is a rural delivery option.

After reading the reviews I'm not sure if I came in on an off day or something because the food was absolutely horrible, I've never had bbq that I didn't finish but this was so dry and over cooked the brisket was like eating pieces of wood. On a positive note the waitress was very nice but service was quite slow, especially for how few of people were in there.

We were very excited to go here but left a bit disappointed. We walked into the bar area and the bartender says to the sole customer "what do you know? Customers!"We wound our way down a back hallway to the dining area and were greeted enthusiastically by the waitress, a lovely lady whose name I did not catch. We were excited to order and then waited well over 45 minutes for our food even though we were one of two tables in the place. I always thought bbq was already cooked as well as most sides (we had beans and Mac n cheese) so we were not sure what took so long. The pulled pork was tender and the portion was huge. The ribs were falling off the bone, but not much flavor. The Mac n cheese was good as were the beans. The star of the meal was the warm cornbread...maybe that is what we waited for so long? Worth it!We will probably not try this place again.

The ribs were fantastic and the cornbread can double as a dessert, although the peach cobbler sounded delicious.

One of the best restaurants in the area. They have great food and a nice bar area that has a pool table and a shuffle board.

Bones is always EXCELLENT!!!! We have been here many times and every time the food has been delicious! They have great burgers, onion rings, mashed potatoes,potato salad, corn bread, and all of the smoked meats are juicy and so good! The portions are large and we always have leftovers to take home for another meal and prices are very reasonable! Tracy is a fantastic server, she is super friendly and a very hard worker! We are so lucky to have this restaurant in Ithaca! We highly recommend!

Exceptional. If you're in the area and don't know what to pick, this is it. If you're not in the area and want the most tender poro/brisket you've ever had, come give them a try. I was blown away by the level of hidden gem they are. Their prices are very affordable when you dine-in. And the portions are rather big as well.They even let me add grenadine to my Sprite. Great place, great service.
