30 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Powell

“The food was fantastic, the staff was so accommodating and brought joy. They were great with making recommendations and seemed happy to talk to us as patrons. We were comped a free peach cobbler since it was our first time in! Literally everything from the sampler was delicious, meats and sides! Would definitely come back again if we're in the area!“

“10 out of 10. Food and staff were both fantastic. Highly recommend“

“I’ve been excitedly waiting for this location to open since I work right down the road. Stopped by for lunch today and ordered my usual- half slab of ribs, fries and green beans. Plus a couple bottles of my favorite sauce of all time, Sweet City. Delicious as always. The ribs seemed even meatier than I’m used to at the other locations I frequent. Lemonade was great too.“

“An amazing restaurant. We had the Hot Pot lunch menu. I highly recommend. A truly surprising find while visiting Ohio. The Szechuan Spicy soup base was delicous. Everything served was flavorful and fresh.“

“Tried Legacy Smokehouse in Hilliard downtown last night. Food was amazing and everyone there was super nice and friendly! Had a half rack of Baby Backs, 1/2 pound of Brisket, 1/4 pound Pulled Pork, Mexican street corn and baked beans. Everything was top notch! My favorites were the brisket (got the fattier cuts and it was possibly the most tender, moist, briskett I’ve ever had), the Mexican Corn (my wife and I both loved it), and I REALLY loved their mustard bbq sauce! Ribs, beans, and pork were great too but the brisket just really stopd out! The building is super cool as well but I got my food to go. I’m a bit of a bbq snob. Locally thusfar, Ray Rays is one of my favorites I’ve had a few times but Legacy might have them beat!“

“If you do not give this place a try you have missed something special.“

“I went to the Marion location. First time stopping in. I got the Brisket platter and two rib platters. I got them to go. The Brisket had great flavor, it was a little drier than I like my brisket but the flavor was there. The ribs were on point, tender juicy full of flavor. The sides I got were baked beans and Mac and cheese. The baked beans were great smoky flavor and a little bit of sweetness to them. The Mac and cheese perfect with how cheesy it was. Over all great food and friendly staff and you get your moneys worth of food. Keep up the good work“

“Don and I really enjoyed our meal and Lauren did an EXCELLENT JOB at her job answering my questions! Keep up the great job! I lover my dessert! :-) K“

“Enjoyed my visit, Symone helped us and she was so personable and polite. She greeted us and even said thank you before we left. It’s nice to go out and get excellent service. It’s a rare thing now. I will definitely be going back to the Polaris location.“

“Great food!!! And wonderful people run it! Can’t wait for them to come back 😋“

“Been here twice and it looks like a lot of the reviews bringing their score down are from the first week of opening. If you give a restaurant a bad review in their first couple weeks of figuring out the quirks, shame on you!

Food has been solid...ribs are my favorite followed by smoked turkey. Sides have been great as well...bean's with burnt ends and collard greens are my favorite.

Opportunities as always - love to see the wings smoked, not fried. Noise is also something that could be softened.

Overall, super happy to have such a place close by. Congrats to the Hank's team!“

“Absolutely delicious, I was so impressed with the quality and texture of the meats. Very tasty and upscale. The staff that was on duty the day I was in were very kind and generous to me. It was my first experience there and Jeremy was absolutely helpful and even gave me a tasty treat to go along with my meal.

Philip the manager I assume, approached me with a friendly tone seeing if I was doing well and needed anything. It seems to me City BBQ in Delaware got it going on!

I highly recommend this place for delicious, delightful and divine barbecue, sides and treats.“

“Stopped in on 3/15. Staff is great, everyone is friendly. The owner personally comes by and checks on you. Overall the food had good flavor, though several items were a little on the dry side. Its an easy fix if they add a little water in the smoker to prevent the food from drying out to much. Its true Texas BBQ and will return.“

“Food was absolutely amazing, great priced and we will be back for sure!“

“Best authentic Hawaiian food in Cbus. Felt like I was back in Hawaii! Highly recommend the teriyaki plate, the saimin and macaroni salad are also great! Can't wait to try more items from the menu“

“Beyond delicious! My husband and I agreed that the Mac and cheese is by far the best we have ever had. I got the ribs, fall off the bone good. Brisket was delicious as well! 12/10 recommend.“

“I find it super popular whenever i’ve went. The wait can be a bit long depending on when you go, but it’s definitely worth it. The servers are amazing and super friendly. Fast service as well! the food here is great and it’s amazing for the price! I’ve done both the Bbq and hotpot, and i definitely recommend it! been here twice and will definitely be coming again!“

“Great pizza! Friendly service! I highly recommend the bbq chicken pizza!“

“I love this place such a great deal. Service is so kind and they are so fast. My only complaint is the sesame sauce taste like peanuts??? So important for those of you with an allergy. I even tried the peanut sauce but it just taste like the sesame sauce but peanutier?? So strange and has never happened to me at a hot pot.“

“I have never felt compelled to leave a review until this place. Ordered the pan seared potstickers and the Dan Dan Hand Stretched Noodles. I am fortunate enough to travel around the world for my work and I can genuinely say this is the most complex and flavorful noodle dish I have ever eaten regardless of restaurant or country. The sesame paste they use in the base gives the most rich umami flavor to go with the wonderfully seasoned beef. The hand stretched noodles have truly perfect tooth to them as well giving a very hearty feel to the dish! I could not recommend this place enough! Truly the first 10/10 I have had in Columbus, Ohio.“

“There is no reason for the food this place serves to be as phenomenal as it is. It's an A-frame roadhouse building with a concrete floor and better food than most upscale restaurants. Tons of beer on tap, great music, incredibly friendly service personnel. 10/10“

“The food was really really good as were the potion size . I got the bbq bento box and takoyaki. The takoyaki was amazing. It's not on the printed menu, but it is online“

“Ordered the medallion meal. The meat was all fat and gristle.“

“Place was nice, clean, was greeted promptly , sat promptly , food and service overall was great, steaks were cooked as ordered , my one complaint is table sizing , the tables are bit small to fit a larger family , it was my birthday dinner and had me, my boyfriend, my parents and siblings and we barely could for drinks, bread, appetizers , salads and main dishes on the table without running out of room or being elbow to elbow .“

“so good. so delicious!! best of the best!!!!!!“

“I love their bone in ribeye !!! Service is pretty good! Food is good and it’s not going to break the bank like these other steakhouses, always fresh and hot… nothing to complain about ever, we go once a month, me and my daughter always love it so thank you very much.“

“Went for lunch with friend. seated immediately but take longer to come back and check on us. The meals was delicious and large portion. The dinning room appears clean and bright. The price is reasonable. i would really to anyone that like Korean food“

“Service was great and the food was delicious!!“
