33 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Nepean

“I haven't been, but it's my name. Five stars.“

“I will start with my observations only for hoping to improve this place that will ensure they continue to be in Barrhaven for a long time,, but hands down I will be going back to this place! 1- the sandwich ONLY contains the meat (next time I will take my slices of tomatoes, onions or lettuce with me lol) 2- my child have seen better chicken nuggets, while the fries were legendary 3- service was OK, but nobody smiled not even a smirk lol 4- the restaurant smelled like they could use a good ventilator. Now the part that will get me to always comeback: 1- THAT BEEF BRISKET is soooooo well cooked as if it was cooked for 100 hours. 2- THAT SAUCE is amazing, I ordered the spicy one, OMG I can still taste it in my mouth! 3- their bread is PERFECT 4- The mashed potatoes were flavourful…“

“We had Grill Master Express do the BBQ for Manotick's Picnic in the Park and all I can say is WOW! Do they know how to do it up right. Dealing with Roger is so easy and professional. Helped us out with great ideas and suggestions. On the day of our event, they were on time and set up with no hassle and were so nice to deal with. They served the people fast and efficiently. They are a Class A business and truly are great all around!“

“The family in the kitchen is as amazing as the food. I will visit here anytime I am in Ottawa. probably the best chicken I have ever had. Thanks for the tour Ramone. Your pride in your product shows in the taste.....“

“Went to Fatboys for the first time tonight and it won’t be our last. After waiting for a seat we were met by the owner who welcomed us and told us we would enjoy the food and he wasn’t wrong we had the Kentucky shared platter and it was definitely filling and the price was affordable. Our server was Emma who filled our drinks and told us what food was coming and what dips were available. Enjoyed the atmosphere and the service. Will definitely be back“

“My wife and I traveled from Ghana to Ottawa for business, and we stumbled upon BBQ GOLDEN GRILLSTONE for dinner. The food was absolutely mouthwatering! We felt right at home, surrounded by flavors that transported us back to Ghana. The jollof rice was spot on - it tasted just like the authentic Ghanaian jollof we grew up with. What a great idea to bring a taste of Africa to Ottawa! The flavors were sweet and perfectly balanced. We'll definitely be back for more!“

“Discovered this restaurant today and happy we did. The food was excellent, great experience allowing us to cook our meal while chatting. Attentive service, excellent quality. A lot of food in the options. We really loved the experience and will definitely return.“

“Lexington Bar and Grill has long been one of my favourite places to celebrate whether it’s a birthday, a date night, or any special occasion. The atmosphere is warm and stylish, and the service is consistently excellent. Their servers are friendly, attentive, and genuinely make you feel taken care of.

When it comes to food, Lexington can be incredible. My usual order includes the burnt ends, the fork‑and‑knife chicken, and their world‑famous potato salad. The chicken and potato salad are always spot‑on from comforting, flavorful, and reliably delicious.

Where things get tricky is with some of their barbecue items, especially the brisket and burnt ends. My favourite dish is the brisket, and when it’s done right, it’s unforgettable. There have been times when it’s arrived perfectly smoked, tender, and genuinely melt‑in‑your‑mouth good.. the kind of brisket that’s so juicy and rich you barely need to chew. Moments like those are exactly why I keep going back.

But unfortunately, those highs are inconsistent. I usually order the two‑meat platter with a piece of brisket and a rack of ribs, and more often than not the brisket shows up cold. That’s a real letdown, especially knowing how incredible it can be when everything lines up.

The burnt ends fall into the same pattern. At their best, they’re caramelized, smoky little cubes of perfection (Glossy, tender, and packed with flavour). But too often, they come out dry or lacking the depth and richness they’re known for. It’s disappointing because I know what Lexington is capable of on their best days.

All of this leaves me feeling like I’m playing a bit of Russian roulette with my plate. The potential is absolutely there, and when they hit their stride, the food is truly outstanding. I just wish the consistency matched the quality they can deliver.

That said, I still recommend Lexington especially if you stick to the standouts, like the fork‑and‑knife chicken and that legendary potato salad. When the kitchen’s on point, the experience is fantastic, and it remains one of my go‑to places for a special night out.“

“tout on viens de Val-Des-Monts pour du bon poulet“

“great space, awesome knowledgeable staff, incredible wine list and they were even able to accommodate a fussy vegan with fresh flavourful food.“

“Great good with great value“

“Today, Feb6/2025 We.(4) went for a late lunch early supper, I ordered the Chinese food, the rice, the chow mein was awful, the ribs were at most ok, my husband had a Lasagna, he said the frozen one bought at grocery store are better and the garlic bread was a joke, a hot dog bun with a spot of garlic butter.... I sent my plate back and ordered a fry and BBQ gravy, the fry was ok and the gravy was flavored water, not thick like gravy, very disappointed! when came time to pay, I was charged 14.95$ for my plate, 7$ fry. I said to the waitress, I did not eat it, she was aware but the boss lady in back would only let her credit me 4$, so it cost 51.10$ for a terrible meal, will not be going back. Please don't waste your time going there“

“We are a group who booked for the all you can eat buffet to celebrate a friend's birthday. The variety and quality of the dishes was amazing, good value. They even brought a plate of freshly made stuffed vine leaves to the table, still piping hot. (My only quibble: a few of the dishes were just warm/tepid/cool. Not easy to keep everything at the right temperature with a buffet.) There was something for everyone, whether you are a vegetarian or a meat or fish eater. My particular favourite: stuffed courgettes/zucchini - delicious. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Convenient parking out front. We will be back.“

“We ordered the family platter for 4. Halal bbq beef ribs and pulled beef were great. It is a largely self service place with disposable dishes and plates but glad the utensils were of steel. Also liked the corn bread.“

“Fantastic little whole in the wall Caribbean food!! BBQ chicken was to die for..spicy, moist & charred to perfection! Big portions, reasonably priced & tastes fresh & delicious!! You can tell they put their heart & soul into their cuisine. Highly recommend & we'll definitely be back!!“

“We chose this place to celebrate my daughter’s birthday, and it made the occasion feel extra special 🎉🎂 It was our very first time visiting this chain, so we weren’t quite sure what to expect. Thankfully, the experience turned out to be a great one! 😊

From the moment we arrived, everything felt welcoming and well organized. The atmosphere was lively yet comfortable, which made it perfect for a family celebration. 🎈 The food was enjoyable, and everyone at the table found something they liked, which is always a win when you’re dining out together.

Overall, it was a wonderful first impression, and we’re glad we chose it for such a meaningful day. We’d definitely consider coming back again in the future! ✨“

“Super filling and well priced“

“great food great taste very nice people 😀 👍“

“Double 7 is a true gem in Ottawa! From the moment you enter, you are greeted with warm hospitality and a vibrant atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. The menu offers an incredible selection of authentic African dishes, all rich in flavor and prepared with the utmost care. Every bite transports you to the heart of Africa, with dishes that are both comforting and exciting.“

“I go here once a week for lunch. A true gem in Chinatown. Their porks and ducks are wonderful. Lunch boxes are packed with good portions woth veggies or tofu. The cooks are so friendly. I spend too much money here... but it won't stop me“

“Let me start with the food. The food is really tasty and I live all the option there are for th sides. I've never to this restaurant in person but I did get the pleasure on interacting with the staff and I must say that there are great people working there. I've placed orders online with notes. They call me to clarify what I asked for with such kind attitude. Last time I ordered there, it was a large one. They threw in a free drink and followed notes exactly. Overall 5 starts across the board. Really happy with everything there. :)“

“The food and the staff were amazing. I had some lamb, rice and kwanga (should have taken plantain instead of kwanga as it was tastier). Our server was very kind and energetic. Music was nice but the seating could have been a bit better. I will most certainly go back.“

“Flavours were fantastic and the service was warm and inviting (contrary to some reviews we read prior to going)and the only draw back was the place looks like it could use a little tlc. My family took me there for my birthday dinner (2A 2C under 6) and we walked in to a bouquet of mouthwatering smells and the courteous and friendly staff directed us to choose what ever table we wanted. The restaurant to be honest, looked like it needed a polish and the floor could use a good mopping. That was the ONLY negative to our experience there. After talking to the mgr who walked me through the menu and gave lots of great information and suggestions we placed our order. He was even kind enought to wish me a happy birthday and brought me a juice as a little something! Please understand that time relaxing and talking while waiting for the food is part of the African restaurant experience so don't be expecting toget it on your table in 5 min. If you want that go to McD's! When the food came (2 combo platters) it was beautifully plated (I wish I thought to take pics!) and with a bowl of delicious jolof rice. FYI Ghanian jolof is different in the flavour and "sauciness" and this Nigerian jolof was fantastic of its own right being light, fluffy, and with a beautiful smoky note. The chicken and goat were amazing! Tender, juicy, and bursting with flavour I only wish we had ordered more! The beef was a little overcooked comparitively. I will say that there is a bit of heat to the dish (a tiny little bit too much for the kids even though they didn't stop eating! hahaha) The take out and delivery that was coming and going throughout our meal was nonstop which just goes to tell you how good the food is. Overall if you decide to check this place out you won't be dissapointed. The food, service, and friendliness of staff are amazing! We'll be back!“

“I was very impressed by the selection of all the different kind of food available. The layout was very creative. Everything was absolutely delicious. The staff was pleasant, attentive and helpful. I will definitely go back. I highly recommend!“

“Wonderful service, great food and more than ample portions. We’re from Florida, USA, and make it a point to eat at St. Hubert in whatever city we visit. We’ve never been disappointed, and this particular restaurant maintained the quality and service we’ve come to expect and enjoy. Merci beaucoup, St Hubert Gatineau…we hope to see you again!“

“Excellent Chicken🐔 and Service!“
