20 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Lexington

“We had a great time while at dinner. The steak was great as well as the rice, beans, fries, chicken bites, and the peppers. We had a really good conversation with the owner, Bruno. He was very nice and even gave us a cup of peppers after my wife explained how much I love peppers. We will be back.“

“Incredibly nice folks, amazing food. What more could you ask for? The burnt ends will change your life!“

“Always outstanding. If you don’t like the brisket you probably think McDonald makes the best burgers ever.“

“First Time visit. Great and clean restaurant environment. The weather was perfect for three huge outside dining patio they have. I was solo so got a bar spot and dodged the 15+ waiting to be seated. I was hard pressed to pick between Menu bbq or buffet. After a quick perusal the buffet chicken bog said pick me. The bog had baby carrots in it. And was very gummy. Needed a pinch of Salt. Wonderful wood smoke smell as soon as I exited my car on arrival. However it didn't make a huge memory on first bite of que. The collards and Green Beans were both very flavorful. Brunswick stew tasted very good, but don't expect a juicy "stew" on the buffet, it was very moist, but didn't need a spoon to eat it. My bartender was amazing a true triple threat. She handled to go offers, bar drinks and bar dining tables like a champ! Super friendly, smiling, and always moving with a purpose. Not sure I would come back for the food. This was a destination diner as I was traveling. It was quick and easy, buffet at 13.49 IMO was priced too cheap. (No drink inc tho) This was a solid 3.5. border line 4 for cleanliness and the work ethic of the bartender.“

“Took my Hubby here for his Birthday , because he wanted Spicy Mango Haberno for his Friday Supper BD. We already had Prime Rib and did the Burger thing earlier in the week. He said these were better than Ale House which was his fave, and hotter. He also did Garlic Parmesean. I got the Carolina Dip,and Onion Rings. Can I say Buffalo Portions at Hummingbird Prices, we were shocked at how inexpensive it was. I loved the Sports Bar Atmosphere. We will definitely be bk. Thanks for Being a Awesome Eating Establishment with" Big Behind" Portions, because we had leftovers.“

“Best food around! We go every Tuesday and it never disappoints. If you have trouble deciding just tell them to surprise you. It’s all great.“

“I've dealt with Mission BBQ in Columbia a few times now. Every time they exceed my expectations. Deseray and Cayce both gave exceptional service and the food was amazing. Highly recommend for a quick bite to eat or to cater a work event!“

“Our employee Christmas party last Saturday was catered by Cox Family BBQ, and it was absolutely wonderful! Their food truck has been a staple at our community events for a few years, consistently delivering delicious BBQ pork and chicken that never disappoints. This time, for our Christmas party, we opted for BBQ Pork as well as we wanted to try the Turkey, and it was AMAZING! Thank you, Cox Family BBQ, for helping make our Employee Christmas Party Great! Landmark of Columbia Team.“

“We have been travelling between Cincinnati, OH and the South Carolina coastal area for over 25 years. Based on BBQ lure and many investigations, one of the stops we began to make was at Hite's BBQ. Husband always has a cooler ready to go and even plans his drive so we can get there when they are open. We have eaten at their picnic tables but mostly pack as much as we can for family, friends, and mostly us. Recently my husband was on the trip alone and stopped for his "fix." The credit card machine was doing something crazy and we were overcharged. Upon discovery, we reached out to Hites and they immediately refunded our whole bill. That was not necessary, as we purchased products. I think they are about the nicest folks anywhere, and that's on TOP of their high quality food. Thanks you guys! We will be stopping again soon.

We enjoyed every bite.“
