22 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Utica

“We were there on a Sunday during lunch. It was busy and there was only one waitress working the entire section. We did have to wait a bit to get served. Rebecca was awesome!! She had no help from the hostess, manager or bartenders. The manager should have stepped up to help her!! He came to our table at the end of our lunch to ask us to scan the QR code for a review. I am only leaving this review to give Rebecca credit. She is a hard worker and deserves a shout out for being awesome!!!“

“The food was delightful. I had the moist brisket and cheesy potatoes. The brisket was actually moist! Nothing worse than a dry brisket and no flavor. The staff was super friendly and explained how everything worked. We sat down to eat and even brought us fries for the table that we didn't order because they made extra. When we walked in they gave us a sample of their fresh baked brownie!! Highly recommended! BBQ sauces were very good also, I settled on the smokey.We also recently got their catering from this store.First, they delivered it over an hour and 20 minutes away. The young man who delivered it was super friendly and nice! The food was HOT! He set up our trays of brisket, pulled pork, cheesy potatoes, Mac and cheese and sliders/corn bread.They also sent a card for our anniversary celebration!You have forever gained a customer❤️“

“Our server Alex was very helpful and helped us figure out some of the dishes and what he recommends I will definitely be coming back to this location next time I’m down here. The menu was had some of the most delicious meals on there 10/10 would recommend“

“Food was delicious and brought out super fast. So many awesome choices. Dylan was super helpful and attentive, and really helped make our first experience here amazing so thank you, you rock dude! And to the folks going around bringing food, and cleaning thank you as well! My girlfriend and I will 100% be back again!“

“Been there twice in one month. The food, service and staff are very courteous and helpful. They are always passing free samples around while you dine in. The brisket just melts in the mouth. Love their cheesy potatoes and coleslaw too. Reasonably priced menu. Nice “

“I tried BBQ Daddy for the first time today. Brisket was absolutely delicious! My wife loved the pulled pork. Mac and Cheese is an absolute must have if it's your first or 100th time here. The cole slaw was a little bland to be honest, but not bad. The jalapeno corn bread ! Absolutely out of this world!!!! Do not leave this place without some!!! Their original BBQ sauce is very good, but a little to sweet for my liking. To top it off the owner (I assume that is who rang me out) had exceptional people skills and was an absolute pleasure meeting/talking to. Thank you BBQ Daddy for an amazing meal! We will definitely be back.“

“Had a late-night taste for a carryout bbq beef ribs so i called the House of Barbeque 30 minutes before closing and they were 86 on beef ribs (understandable since it was 30 minutes before closing) so I opted for a slab of pork ribs. I was pleasantly surprised! Tasty, tender, perfectly smoked pork ribs and the sauce.....MMMMM Good!!! Had the opportunity to speak with the Master Chef/Owner of this hidden gem in Clawson and trust me, after satisfying my late-night craving....I will be back! If the rest of the House of Barbeque's fare is as good as the pork ribs (and I'm sure it is), I'll be one of your best customers. Clawson and surrounding communities, this is the real deal!!! Check it out!“

“expensive but so so worth it ?? i don't eat here often but when i do it changes my life, my soul ascends to another plane of existence where all that exists is soy garlic wings. their wings are so big and crunchy and juicy every time i take a bite my life expectancy increases by ten years. its so good, you haven't lived until you've eaten here. if youre coming here with others i would recommend sharing instead of everyone getting individual things to keep the price down. i spent 37 for a medium sized soy garlic wings and a plate of sassy fries plus two drinks, and of course a tip for all the incredible people who bless us all with their art. i wouldnt even think twice about spending that any where else but i would in an instant if it mean i got to eat here? 10/10“

“Hands-down, some of the best bbq, you can get in Metro-Detroit. I know many people would disagree with me, but I like it better than Slow’s or the Woodshop, any day. City BBQ’s meat is consistently better, more flavorful, the sauces offered are interesting (love the green chile!), and the staff is always kind. City BBQ is also significantly cheaper than the other afore-mentioned bbq joints. If you live in Metro-Detroit, go try it! It’s SO good!“

“Absolutely DELICIOUS pizza. It was hot, LOADED, when I say loaded, I mean loaded with toppings and cheese. It was baked to perfection. I've had their pizza twice and each time, I was more than impressed. Their customer service skills is above and beyond most places. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this pizza place. Best around in my opinion!“

“First time visiting this restaurant and really enjoyed the food! The waiters were very nice here and they also had suggested which sauces I should eat with my meat. Also provided the best-selling orders and recommendations in which I really appreciate. Would definitely come back here again with more friends!There’s a variety of foods for vegetarian people if they cannot eat pork :)“

“Where should I start.Everything was amazing.From the pretty lady, I believe she said her name was Dan.She was great with taking my order and packing it with care!I ordered the Sweet bacon appetizer.I wish I would have ordered 10. The 6 pieces wasn’t enough to satisfy my sweet tooth.The half slab of ribs paired with the 1-2-3 sauce was something out of this world. Along with the Mac and cheese and the collard greens, is enough for me to come back 50 more times, especially if Mrs. Dan is there working. I’d come back just to see her smile.The house made lemonade reminds me of what my MamMaw used to make when I was a youngin.100/10 would recommend“

“I want to thank Steve and his crew in Lawton, OK for catering our Oklahoma National Guard Unit Holiday meal for over 400 Soldiers. They did an amazing job with fast friendly service. The food was delicious, fresh, and hot! We will continue to use for all catering services.“

“I stop by Zhang's all the time. The managers are always kind and helpful. Their BBQ is made fresh daily, so I go earlier for the best selection. I always get a whole roast duck-- flavorful and crispy. It is clean and well kept inside, I recommend!“

“If I could give more than five stars for service, I would. I’m not saying we eat out a lot, but when we get a chance to eat out, we go to Texas roadhouse. We’ve gone to Texas about 3-4 times within the last month. Our waitress tonight was the best. We went for our two year anniversary. Tess almost seemed to read our minds, and was always checking on us (And not in that overly annoying check-in, but at like perfect intervals). Thank you Tess for doing an amazing job! You made our night GREAT.“

“First time, went in just after they opened. Asked to see if I could watch sports by the bar. Seated quickly with a big smile, my friend was running late and they directed him right to me. The food was outstanding, my buddy had the pork chop, he was glad he just got one he said it was delicious. My chicken salad was great. Saw someone's steak and it made my mouth water even though I was full. The waitress was verynice, cheerful and fun. Go there!!!Parking: Out front, lots.Kid-friendliness: Saw some kids having a blast.Wheelchair accessibility: No curbs, wide doors and person to help you to your table.“

“Fantastic food as always! We get the parmeasan crusted chicken, it comes with a salad and a side, the mashed potatoes are the best! we also get the parmeasan crusted spinach and artichoke dip with fresh hot crispy pita pieces! 12 oz chicken is 2 big chickenbreaststroke, so plenty to take home!“

“Authentic place. No menu, no sides, no cards, cash only. If you're looking to walk in and get some delicious no frills food this is your place. The duck was fantastic and comes with a nice sauce on the side. It was about $20 for half a duck. Looking forward to trying so more things they offer. No for the faint of heart, they pull the full duck down and chop it up right in front of you. Don't mind the complaining reviews, this place is definitely more old school but worth the stop“

“Perfect hangout spot! With a diverse bar selection, live entertainment, karaoke nights, delicious food, top-notch service, pool, darts, and a lively atmosphere, it's a super fun place. If you're looking for a guaranteed good time, look no further than Jamboozies!“

“Found myself in Clawson today at lunch time. Found Woodpile with Google.I ordered the weekday lunch special for $12.95 - one meat, one side and a pop - and got a second side becauseI couldnt decide. Still under $20 with tip.The lady at the counter was very pleasant and possessed an honest sense of humor and wore a smile the whole time.One bite of the brisket, before sauce and without the bun, and I knew I'd be back here. Perfection in three thick slices carefully laid on the bun. Moist, tender, almost falling apart.Then I tried the mac & cheese. Another hit. I wish I could make it half as good. Noodles are perfectly cooked, the sauce is almost decadent in its flavor and delightfully creamy.The coleslaw. Among the best I've ever had. It has actual flavor. Not just some cabbage & dressing, there is thought behind this side. Multiple vegetables with just a hint of cayenne (?) & maybe horseradish. Not hot, just seriously tasty.Even the corn bread, wrapped in foil, was moist, sweet, delicious.The tables built around barrels are cool, as are the "live edge" high tops. There is outdoor seating as well for the non-winter months.They have carry-out as well.Like I said before, I'll be back. Having recently moved from Tampa area, I have to try the Barbe-Cuban sandwich to see how it stacks up.Parking: The off-street parking is only about 8 spaces. Room for about 4 more on the street.Kid-friendliness: One look at the menu and the kids will be happy.Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of room inside, wide entry door is easy to open.“

“This place is a delight! Ordered the chicken luncheon special me with coleslaw my hubby French fries. They threw in some of the wedges because we had never been before. They were the best, but everything was great, including the manager and the guy running the counter. The food was “

“My pregnant was craving fish and chips on this Friday Night. Decided to try Victory inn and they did not disappoint. There fries are seasoned which I really like, the tartar sauce is homemade which you never see and the Mac and cheese also I homemade and is fantastic. Even tried the pretzel bites and they are exactly what I was hoping for, nothing fancy. Soft, salted pretzels and nacho cheese. The only way it should be. The fish was great also ( fish and chips is pretty similar anywhere I think) but everything else made the meal really stand out. And the staff was great, very sweet to my wife when she ordered and congratulated me when I got there. Great experience, would recommend to anyone. Nice fun atmosphere on the inside to, next time we'll dine in“
