14 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Salisbury

“The best barbecue anywhere. Would you consider opening a restaurant in Georgetown SC. There isn’t a barbecue place in this town and really need one.“

“Great food, friendly staff, clean, reasonable!“

“Today was my first time visiting and I had a wonderful experience. The food was amazing. The services were helpful and provided great customer service. You walk in and find a seat. The menus are available on the tables and a server comes over and waits on you. When you’re done you walk up to counter and pay. Overall 10/10“

“We love it here! Service is fast and friendly! We usually go for breakfast. The portions are HUGE so come hungry. Always yummy. The Livermush is extra crispy, the grits are the best we have ever had, perfect delicious texture, not soupy like some and the omelets are amazing.
Casual seat yourself and cool 50's atmosphere inside. We drive 30 minutes and it always worth it!!“

“I grew up in Salisbury and lived there well into my adulthood. I live in Columbia, SC now but when I come back to town to visit my Mom, one of my favorite places to eat is at Checkered Flag. They’re food is really good but the hard working ladies who serve the customers is what makes it great. They take the time to talk to every customer at every table and it’s not just chit chat. They really want to know how you are and what they can do for you to make your visit perfect. They treat everyone like family but for those of us who come back again and again, we become family. Even for me, an out of towner, I even know two of the hard working ladies, Angela and Jen. Angela showed her hard working team spirit yesterday when, Jen, our server, was tied up with her other tables. Angela stepped in and took our order until Jen could get back over to us. This example of teamwork becomes contagious and I’m sure that Jen has done the same thing for Angela and all of her co-workers. Jen is such a joy to be around. Her personality oozes charisma and warmth and she makes you feel truly special because that is who she is!! I heartily recommend Checkered Flag for their great food and and their even greater people!! I rate them 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and 5 hearts!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️“

“Great food. Great customer service. I don't mind making the 20 minute drive even though there are other bbq restaurants closer to where I live. It's worth it.“

“Our waitress Tabitha was PHENOMENAL - I would come back 1000 times just for her! The food was exceptional, and I left STUFFED! Easily the best TR I’ve ever gone to!“

“This restaurant just knocks it out of the ballpark in service and quality. It is our favorite Longhorn location, and we are never disappointed. The food is always fresh, order is accurate, and service is great. We drive from Statesville and it’s worth the drive.“

“Hands down only the best BBQ and Breakfast in Davidson County . Food, service and friendliness. Joey Poole knows how to cook up the best in pit cook BBQ and breakfast.“

“You can't go wrong stopping here and getting anything on the menu. The food is great, salad bar is well stocked and the service is commendable.“

“First time in about 30 years that I have been there, but the food is still good, and the curb service is even faster than ever!! I got my food in about three minutes flat!! They have dine in as well, but great place to drop in if you're In a hurry!“

“First time eating there. It was myself, my wife, son and grandson. I had the chop BBQ plate and my wife had hamburger steak. My son had the chop BBQ plate and grandson had the bacon cheese burger. It was delicious! We didn't have room for dessert so my son and I got the homemade banana split to go. We recommend this place to you. Staff was very nice. Now it's time to relax and let this feast settle in for a while.“

“Love the BBQ! Its a must get. Also tried their chili beans for the first time and it was awesome. Full of big red kidney beans and chock full of hamburger. Great chili flavor and a decent sized portion. Ordered a grilled cheese sandwich to go with it and it was the perfect meal for a cold night.
One thing to note: this is a very small restaurant and has very tight seating with permanently built in booths (9 I think???). They are not adjustable so if you're a larger person, be prepared to squeeeeeeze into the seats. There is ONE table with four chairs which I believe is for those with handicaps.
Second thing to note: the bathrooms are around the back of the building... outside.“

“We loved going here since the new owners! (Beth and Haley) They were real busy but we were taken care of and didn’t wait for too long! Will definitely be returning!“
