20 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Farragut

“Amazing and perfect service. Very friendly and nice. The food was just amazing. Love it here.“

“1/10/2026, #1 Best meal anywhere is always Longhorns Parm Crusted Chicken & their Mac & Cheese. I eat it twice a month and it’s so tongue flopping incredible! Saturday night was sold out packed but our server Michael was amazing. Just watching him handle all his tables at the same time with so much professionalism so great to see. First class server that should be sought after by Knoxville’s finest restaurants if you’re smart.“

“Best smash burger around, Best chicken salad around, and some great people working hard and smiling all day. thanks!“

“For a sit down restaurant it has mixed vibes. It's not a full service restaurant but not a fast food restaurant either. Felt very different than the layout suggests. When ordering it feels like a McDonald's, Wendy's, or raising canes fast food restaurant. Walk in stand in line order food at register then collect your number and seat yourself and get your drinks from the fountain dispenser. Then someone sets the table you sit at another bring your food to the table.
Next was the food being good and had decent quality for the price. However while my pulled pork sandwich was full and adequate I don't suggest the burger. My wife's burger while good flavor was as small as a burger at McDonald's. And for the price I think it should be a bit larger. It also appears to be a frozen burger not freshly made. But with good seasoning it was good.
Fried Mac and cheese balls were really good and the chilli was delicious. Fix the burger and you are on to something!!“

“Been eating here for over 10 years. Best Pulled Pork in town.“

“Ok, so I eat at Buddy's BBQ all the time. So today I go to the Bearden location for an early lunch. Get my food and drink and go to a table by the windows. As I am sitting there eating, small black ants are crawling everywhere, along the windows sills and even on my table while I was trying to eat. I killed about 3 . I did notice ants were on other tables along the windows. Plus the windows sills were dirty and nasty. Number 2, the TV was on and extremely loud....and what was on ? Sports!!!! Men yacking back and forth as fast as they could talk. Not everyone enjoys listening and watching sports in every restaurant in town!!!!!“

“Clinton.Tn Went though the drive thru and bought brisket dinner and a brisket sandwich. The brisket was like wallet leather dry and the fries were stale and cold I took it inside and the crew today was so respectful and thoughtful. They apologized and made fresh fries and the just had fresh brisket come out. I will def. Retired because of the customer service I experienced. However, ensuring food meets quality before being served should be more focused on.“

“Lived in Tennessee for 4 years now. Had some “okay” BBQ here and there. Some dude had a smoker at an old gas station, that kinda thing. It was all bland and overly salty. Famous Dave’s is excellent. You can taste the wood smoke in the brisket. The house BBQ sauce is really good. Great pork ribs. Best BBQ we have found in Tennessee.“

“Wonderful experience! Food is AMAZING!! We will make it a regular place to go eat!! Staff was the best! Highly recommend!!“

“I have wanted a steak from here for a month. Husband ordered me the 8oz Medium well. I immediately went to cut it and it was rare. I mean blood pouring out. I can't eat rare or even Medium cooked steaks. There was one little piece that was medium well on the end. Thought I would eat it. NOPE, hard as a rock. What is wrong with people and the way they cook. I have the ticket that says Medium Well. let's just say it wouldn't have been pretty if I was in the restaurant eating. Thanks for nothing. At least I ate the salad and two rolls. FYI, Husband's Prime rib was good to him.“

“I had just got out of surgery and the first thing I asked for was long horn steak house, steak. We called ahead and the person that picked up was very nice. My wife got the chicken. When we pulled up to get our food, the waitress that came out to give us our food was very nice. When we got home to eat. It was fresh and so amazing. The people at this long horn, definitely took care of us by having everything ready and tasted absolutely amazing. Definitely needed this for sure. I would recommend this location long horn to anybody. Well done….“

“Baked potatoes keep getting smaller and smaller. Got an order to go today and had to cook another potato at home to have one normal baked potato. Love your steaks, but you need to get bigger baked potatoes to keep me coming back.“

“Always a great time and the pretzels are great!“
