Sweet Smoke BBQ - Westside 3530 Country Club Dr, Jefferson City Barbecue • $$
3530 Country Club Dr, Jefferson City

“Good BBQ spot! Brisket was tender w/ substantial flavor AND AMOUNT! All the sauces at the table were tasty with 2 having heat. Pit beans are tasty but not a pinto type dish. Cole slaw was a cream or mayo based dish vs. a vinegar type. Can't beat the price for the flavor and amount! Get the dinner plate so you can take home half for a home meal!”

Bandana's Bar-B-Q and Catering 2336 Missouri Blvd, Jefferson City Barbecue • $$
2336 Missouri Blvd, Jefferson City

“I'm a tough critic and have been here a few times, but everything was fabulous this evening.Haylie was our server and did a great job.Our food came out so quick, it surpassed our appetizer delivery. However, the manager was promptly out to apologize and notify she removed it from the check.The food itself was on point. I love that the baked beans had a lovely texture that wasn't mushy.Definitely opt for the burnt ends. The meat quality was excellent, no fat fill, and great texture and flavor!Other members of our party took advantage of the "Budget" menu, which was such a great value- I would return just for this.Reviewing menu costs and discrepancies (?), I noticed the cost for pork with garlic bread and 2 sides was $9 on the Budget menu. There is also an $11 option for a "Wet baked potato", which includes the potato, pork, bread, and 1 side. Or you could opt for an $11 pork sandwhich and side.... and there is a plate option. It seems like the values should be adjusted, but I was happy with the $9 option and it was quite a bit of food.There were a few large parties, but noise was minimum, service was prompt without any excuses offered- big A+! Management was on it all night.Excellent team work. Excellent food. Will definitely return and recommend.Thanks.”

“Helmut Steiner waited on us throughout the evening, which was a treat. We spend a weekend near Jefferson City once a year or so & always eat our special dinner at the Steinhaus. The food was delicious! Wish I could bring my parents here. The German songs playing in the background plus all the paintings & decor remind me of the years I spent living in Germany.”

“I visited CCP for their Groundhog Day production. It was a fabulously fun time! Even though our table was in the back, I could see the stage and hear everything. The live band was outstanding and the service staff were helpful. The program ran off on time, food was great (the most delicious dessert!) and you can bring your own alcohol (ice bucket provided). What more could a person want? Parking lot was well lit and felt safe at night. The ticket price was great for the experience. I will definitely be buying tickets again!”

“This place was HOPPING on a Saturday night and the young staff did a fantastic job of taking care of the never ending flow of takeout and dine-in customers. The pizzas are always great (my fave is Hawaiian cauliflower crust) but I had a fabulous hoagie last night and my daughter had a great grilled chicken salad. A wonderful place to watch wildcard football while enjoying lots of items from their menu and having a cocktail or two. This is one of 4 Pizza Haus's in this area--can't go wrong at any of them”

We love the decor of this restaurant and makes you feel like your in Mexico ??. The food was pretty good, but the margaritas could use just a little more tequila. Overall, we would definitely go again to check out some of the other food selections.”
