33 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Columbia Heights

“This man did not play with these rib tips!!! Tender just delicious!!!!“

“This was a great place for lunch or dinner. We tried 3 sandwiches and sides. The chicken strips were teen approved as well. We will definitely be back. So many sauces too.“

“Ok, we’ve all heard it time and time again. Everyone has the best bbq. Just ask them. 90% of the time, I go somewhere and I’m disappointed. Definitely not the case with Pitty Q. I have never heard about this place until about a week ago. It popped up on my facebook page. A review from Tony Cu. Tony had nothing but good things to say about this place. So I told my wife, “When we go down for the Vikings game, we’re going to try this place out.” Man am I glad we did. My wife and I split the 3 meat meal. The brisket, ribs, and chicken were phenomenal. Best bbq, besides my own, that I’ve had in Minnesota. The vinegar and mustard sauce is to die for. 10/10 Will definitely come back.“

“Excellent dinner, great music, wonderful staff!“

“Their burger is my #1. But I'm here to compliment the philly. It is the best philly I've had in MN. The beef is seasoned perfectly, but the bread is really what sets it apart. it's kind of like a garlic bread without all the garlic and butter, yet it is perfect! I hope y'all have a chance to try it :)!“

“Walked past this spot so many times I finally decided to check it out I was craving some kind of Asian Cuisine this day. The ambiance in there is mad cute perfect place for an impromptu dinner date in my opinion. Only drawback is I wished that the rice had a slightly larger portion & it felt a lil too expensive for the amount of food. Other than that the waitress was so sweet & gave excellent service as well as menu recommendations. I can’t for the life of me remember her name & it’s bothering me now. Other than the price for the portion sizes the food was banging yo. 5 stars to Asia Fusion Kitchen all the way. I’ll be back. They’re deffo a hidden gem in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Check em out.“

“Best turkey I had ever! They know how to smoke!“

“Stopped by for a quick lunch and now a day later i'm trying to figure out when I can go get MORE!! So yummy!“

“BEAST did an amazing job with our wedding catering last Saturday! The food was absolutely delicious — perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The team arrived on time, set everything up beautifully, and made the whole process super easy for us. There wasn’t a single bite left, and everyone kept talking about how incredible the food was. Highly recommend them!“

“Ribs are amazing! This is the place to go!!!“

“I have been eyeing this spot for awhile and finally swung by to give it a try. The first thing I noticed when I pulled up was the smell & sight of their smoker going out back. Nothing compares to the flavor coming off a real BBQ. The lady who took my order was very friendly and helpful. I opted for the jerk chicken with sides of mac & cheese, Green beans with smoked turkey and red beans & rice. I got my food in about 5 minutes and ended up taking it to go. The drive home was rough as the smell was amazing and I wanted to pull over and dig in! When I finally did get home I dug in. This was a large plate of food! The chicken was extremely flavorful and moist. I could taste the smoke on it which is a huge plus! The mac & cheese was creamy and rich. The green beans with smoked turkey was very good and the red beans and rice was really flavorful especially served underneath the jerk chicken. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for some good BBQ in St. Paul!“

“Amazing food and amazing owners! We have been coming here for 15 years and the quality of food and service is always top tier.“

“We had Old Southern Bbq cater for our wedding and it was absolutely an amazingly positive experience! The director of catering, Amy, was so helpful and on top of everything. The catering team was absolutely wonderful! All of our guests ranted and raved about the food all night, especially the potato salad and the cornbread muffin tops. Would definitely recommend!“

“You’ll know you’re in the right place from the heavenly smell that greats you from a block away. This neighborhood joint has got its system down to a science.

“Thouroughly enjoyed an anniversary dinner with my wife on Sunday 12/17. It was a unique experience, the food was great, the prices were fair, and the service was superb. It was a fun food adventure for both of us, and we are already planning our next visit.“

“Their Hong Kong-style BBQ pork is a masterclass in crisped edges and honey-glazed richness. It carries both bold flavour and an elegance that feels rare for Chinese deli-BBQ. The roast duck arrives beautifully lacquered, the skin with just the right crackle and the meat tender, juicy and savoury from hours of slow roasting. On the full menu: from stir-fried beef and mushrooms to luxurious lobster and crab preparations, each dish reflects a commitment to quality, generous portions and classic Cantonese technique.“
