50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Madison Heights

“One of the best Roast Duck, Roast Pig spot here in Madison Heights. I drive from Lansing just to come pick up roast duck or both when I really wants some or when I'm in the area I always stop by.
They also sell other meat there including cuttlefish, pig ears etc. its a small spot only for pick up and go. Price went up like everything else but cheaper then the one in Grand Rapid. I highly recommend. They only take cash.“

“I love getting the crispy pork from here it's very tasty and savory, the duck is also a very good choice, I usually get at least a pound of the pork (the cut it fresh for you) and at least half a duck, sometimes a whole duck. Perfect to share with multiple people.“

“Great food awesome people“

“I dined in for the first time a little over a week ago and loved my Cuban! I was determined to sample something else on their menu tonight and while the hubs was figuring out what he wanted, I started to read the reviews and was a bit shocked with a few of them. I too, have a lot of restaurant work in my background and so I paid extra attention tonight. I'm happy to report that my take out experience this evening has been stellar! My call in was handled well and without issue and was ready when I went to pick it up. I only live 5 min away (if that) and the food was really warm, well packaged and delicious. Portions are generous as far as I'm concerned-these Corktown Fries are enough for two and the they don't skimp on the portions of crisp either. I am really glad I've finally been able to get to this place and I'm sure they're on my 'go-to' list from now on.“

“Johnson was our server he was great!!“

“First time eating at Mission BBQ. Food was very good, service was excellent and quick, and loved the atmosphere. Employees were very knowledgeable when explaining the menu items to us as well as recommending which sauces are their favorites. We will definitely be back!“

“Myneesha is amazing, we can’t wait to have her back. Best food and best service we’ve had here hands down! Jen- Owner, Celestial Farms“

“Haven't been in a while since I moved out the neighborhood. But food was always great, service above reproach, prices were reasonable and great menu selections. Owners and staff were always friendly and appreciative. I could go for a full slab rib dinner or smothered pork chop dinner. With collard greens, Mac n cheese, cornbread and a large kool-aid mixed.“

“First time customers (7/12/2025). We needed to find a new BBQ place to satisfy our taste buds since SHEETZ is taking over 12 & Mound. WE FOUND IT. Ordered the Judges' sampler to try their variety. Ribs, Brisket, Pulled Pork, Chicken, Baked Beans and Hush Puppies are ALL EXCELLENT. The Coleslaw could have been a bit creamer, but we didn't come here for veggies or salad. Loved their sauces as well. We will definitely be back and bringing friends.“

“Amazing food and even better atmosphere. I've been there twice and plan on going over and over again. The staff are very helpful and nice. My daughter would eat there every night if I'd let her 😅.“

“My food was on fire when I got it and it was excellent I really enjoyed it !!!“

“Big thanks to Adam, Brenda Jean, Ely and Molly for making my 55th birthday celebration so fun. Everyone had a great time.“

“We really enjoy your food and have been coming here often because it's so delicious.
However, we've recently noticed a strong ammonia-like smell inside the restaurant from portable cooler??, and it's been quite unpleasant. We would really appreciate it if you could look into it and see if there's anything that can be done.“

“I was hard-core craving Mac and Cheese Pizza only to find that nobody makes it anymore....and then I found Pizzianos. I had people recommend them before but hadn't made it over there...but now I had to! The food...omg! Delicious. I dont even have words to describe the cinnamon bread. Perfection. And on top of the food being amazing, the customer service....superb! The gentleman i interacted with was beyond friendly and informative and I am now sold as a regular customer!“

“Dude's BBQ is sick. He hooks it up with extra sides too. However, it's first come, first serve. So you might be standing in line for 30 minutes with 15 other people, get up there to order and whatever you wanted is sold out. If there's huge line, i don't even bother anymore. It's only open like one day a week now, maybe two if you're lucky lol.“

“great place to eat the hospitality was good the food was on time hot I'll be back“

“Wont go the extra mile, spent over $200 in aweek , ordered a wing dinner ladt night an was late picking it up, car breaking down even called an told them, got there within the hour to pick up, got home wings were hard and cold!!!! Not real happy now“

“Amazing service and flavorful food! Can’t beat this place!“

“I love the place. The staff was very nice. I came with my friend. They were all very lovely. Very supportive of us coming in. In fact, they let us use the second table for our pizza and the table we were sitting at for the pizzas that were we’re gonna eat on that table. I could recommend this place even more. Way more better than jets and all those other pizza places. 10/10 would recommend anyone.“

“The BBQ wings are so good! A bit dry but the seasoning definitely makes up for it. The sides are bomb too, great Mac and cheese, yams, and baked beans. The greens are flavorful but a tad bit on the salty side. The banana pudding is delicious too. Definitely going back!“

“My father and I went in today for the 5 year celebration and our server Tajma was amazing. She knew the beers like the back of her hand and we had a great conversation about local breweries and beers we are huge fans of! Keep up the great work. Also the wings were phenomenal honey sirracha delicious, and the platter had so much amazing stuff we had to take a lot home! We will be back.“

“The owner of the pizza place is extremely nice. The staff is great as well. Food is exceptionally good. The pizza sauce is made by the owner himself. Prices are much cheaper than the regular places like this.

Continue the fantastic job, Pierre!“

“I had an experience where my steak was not cooked medium well and the situation was not rectified at the moment. Mark (the manager) called my cellphone and offered a voucher to make things right. I appreciate the extra effort!“

“Decided to try this place for lunch today. Got the Italian calzone lunch combo with fries. The food was ready at the estimated time and was still very hot/fresh when I got it home. The calzone was a good size and great flavor. Fries were crispy. Definitely adding it to my list of go-to places. They had desserts in a display and they looked really good as well. Definitely going back to try the pizza and dessert next.“

“Excuse my messy picture but food was that goddamn good that I had already started eating it before I couldn’t even get the phone out and I’m not exaggerating them damn red beans or rice 10 out of 10 this barbecue cheeseburger 9.9 it was still hot and juicy when I got home 30 minutes later beef ribs 9.8 out of10 the red beans and rice nothing to play with“

“I grew up in the neighborhood where this is located. The food is superb, especially the fried chicken. Excellent subs & pizza too. One of my new favorite carry out places

Parking: You must back in for street parking along 9 Mile Rd.“

“My husband and I were passing by and decided to stop in. The atmosphere is very welcoming and clean. We were greeted with a warm smile and were told if we have any questions they would be happy to help! I ended up getting the Hawaiian BBQ Mix and my husband got the Loco Moco. Let me tell you. I got home and opened up that take out box. It was like I was looking at pure gold. I took one bite and I was hooked. Very tasty, good quality of product, and at a good price point! I probably am gonna be able to get 3 meals out of that one take out box. I am definitely gonna be back. Owners, Managers, and Staff. Keep up the good work. Seriously.“

“Had a great experience at Happy’s Pizza! The food was fresh, hot, and tasted amazing. Everything we ordered was really good, and the service made the experience even better. You can tell they care about the quality of their food and their customers. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to. Highly recommend!“

“This is the best pizza ve found so far. Cooked to perfection, staff was fny and had everything out before they said it would and it was cooked, sauced, and topped perfectly. Thank you for giving me a great pizza. We ate it too fast before I could get a picture. Thank you again“

“All the way from Indy we love y’all! I’ve visited plenty of times and brought one of my daughters this time! She agrees this menu beats all the bbq in Indy. She especially enjoyed the staff!

“Down here for a doctors appointment tomorrow morning, staying at the guest house at Henry Ford Hospital, we were looking for a pizza place we don’t have up in the U.P., the delivery driver was very kind, and was delivered very fast! Food was delicious!“

“The food was damn good and well worth the price I will be checking this place out again the ghetto Burger was good it really didn't stand out from any other Burger but it was still good the cheesecake dessert was the only thing I did not like and honestly it didn't even taste like cheesecake was more like Frozen cake so I'll pass on the dessert but everything else that I had was damn good.“

“Theirs not to many places around the city that offer a good, hardy and delicious New Orlean style seafood gumbo but, I happened to be driving around on the westside and was hungry and decided to give a new place I'd heard about from a friend. The spot is called "Dem Noles Bois"...It's been awhile since I had a good gumbo. I've got to tell you, to my surprise, this was the best gumbo that I’ve had in years definitely five stars. I definitely will be back again...I want to try the BBQ Ribs, the fried chicken wings, and for sure, the fried shrimp dinner. P.s., the Banana Pudding was on point“

“Support small business! Honestly being the foodie, hospitality enthusiast that I am... I highly recommend this restaurant the owner who’s also the server was amazing her daughter(about 8) was her helper and it was amazing. The food was ideally seasoned and you get the feel of the “D” with this experience. The menu was also well priced and the meal size was great. The plantain rum dip was to die for. Not to mention, proper social distancing efforts, available hand sanitizer and for you smokers... ashtray and ability to do so. I loved it and enjoyed myself. Looking forward to my next Detroit visit where I visit the Alley Deck.“

“I was a 1st timer walking in. I had my mind and spirit on some REAL down south type of BBQ..I came across this place. When I walked in there was an old school gentleman whom just received his take out. I asked him was this his first time as well and he said noooooo he been coming for over 10yrs!! He suggested the ribs and potatoe salad. Now I'm VERY skeptical when it comes to people potato salad..but let me tell you..THEE BEST POTATO SALAD from a restaurant!! And them dog gone RIBS so tender and flavorful!! You can taste the real grill smoked taste..and the sauce is AMAZING!!! I will be back TODAY I had told my Mom about Nunn's and I'm bringing her here. Great customer service!!! I met the Son of the man that started it all. Keep the legacy going. It's a blessing to come across awesome food let alone SERVICE..very welcoming. Thank you“
