28 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Portsmouth

“I ordered the Musubi and the Hawaiian BBQ combo, as well as a black milk tea. This is another review where the food smelled so good when it arrived that I forgot to take a picture. The Mac salad was top notch, and the galbi hit the bullseye.

The server was friendly and attentive. This was my second time here but my first time dining in. Certainly will return.“

“Best service, best food, and best Mission experience! Every time I go Mission BBQ in Chesapeake, we feel honored and served with excellence. Caylee is the best!! The last time times we have been there, I am amazed by her kindness and service excellence. Cubes, the kitchen manager, cooks with the touch from heaven. Thank you for being a blessing! Y’all are our fav!“

“this place is absolutely delicious. I was with a bunch of guys who all raved over their brisket and pulled pork. I had the salmon, which is not always the best idea at a bbq joint but it was outSTANDing! the fired green tomatoes were yummy too. with a cool, modern building in the heart of Ghent and super friendly staff, this place is going to become a new hangout. we were there for lunch so we haven't tried the bar scene but that's next on the list. if I could give it an 11 out of 10, I would!“

“People friendly and dog friendly!!! Food is great and the ice cream is amazing!“

“it was good everything was nice and tasty I will be back again“

“Best BBQ we’ve had in a long time! We got the brisket and spare ribs meal. Portion sizes are great - every item from the meats to the sides were loaded with flavor. The green beans had a nice crunch and slight spicy kick to them. The Mac and cheese was creamy and delicious! Definitely will be getting more next time we see the truck! Others around us at the Daffodil Festival were asking where we got the meal from because it looked so delicious!“

“Food is awesome!!! Sauce is awesome. Definitely recommend!!“

“Food was so good! We found this place while traveling and weren’t sure what to expect with the small diner-style, but it had great reviews, and the food and service were fantastic! The Philly steak was delicious!! And we grabbed some freshly smoked BBQ for dinner later!“

“Best BBQ in town! Highly recommended if you've never been“

“I recently visited Country Boys, a local BBQ gem, and I was thoroughly impressed with their offerings. The brisket was nothing short of spectacular, boasting a perfect smoky flavor that melded beautifully with its tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Each bite was a harmonious blend of seasoning and juiciness, making it an absolute delight. Their buffalo chicken was equally impressive, striking a perfect balance between heat and flavor. The chicken was cooked to perfection, maintaining its juiciness while being enveloped in a spicy, tangy buffalo sauce that left me craving more. Beyond the food, the service at Country Boys stood out for its warmth and efficiency. The staff was attentive and friendly, making sure that every guest felt welcomed and well-cared for. Consistency is clearly a hallmark of Country Boys, as each visit delivers the same high-quality experience, both in terms of food and service. If you're in the mood for some top-notch BBQ, Country Boys should be at the top of your list.“

“This is AWARD WINNING BBQ. The Tropies are piled up on display from all over the world. I'm 62. This is THE BEST I've EVER had.“

“Great BBQ....... along with good service. Well that was true back in the day anyway.“

“Dog friendly outside tables/ fireplace. Amazing tasting food. Have to watch out for your food if you are outside/ check with the bar if it's ready. Live music makes so you can't really hear the nunber called, and they won't come get you. Overall, it's wonderful.“

“Great food and friendly staff“

“Love this spot! Me and my girlfriend have eaten here probably ten times in the last 6 months. I get the brisket every time and usually it’s great. However, this past week we went and the brisket was borderline inedible. So chewy and tough that I couldn’t even swallow it. My knife (albeit plastic ware) was unable to cut through it, and I was left pretty disappointed and still hungry lol. The time before that we ordered take out and it was a similar story. Don’t know what’s up with that, but everything else is great! The Cinnamon apples are my favorite side along with the hush puppies, and my girlfriend always gets the bbq chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries and Mac+cheese, never disappoints.“

“Drive thru only. Been here several times now and mistakes made on 3/4 of my visits. I didn't get my full order or i received someone elses complete order. This Cook Out just recently opened so will forgive the mistakes and put it down to lack of experience. Staff has always been helpful and nice. Prices are right. Food is good. The chocolate malt milkshakes are the best around.“

“Amazing food and customer service! 10/10 recommend“

“We used Mobile Pig-Nic for my husband's 70th birthday and it was amazing. Every item was fresh, prepared perfectly, and absolutely delicious! My guest were all asking for the caterers information, and if I could get the macaroni and cheese recipe. Mike and his staff went above and beyond. Can't wait to use them again!“

“Just don't use online ordering. Never works and end up making food after you waited and get to the restaurant.“

“EDIT: Don and another manager reached out to me and compensated me, and I deeply appreciate their willingness to make it right.
To me, that’s good business. Thank you for fixing me up, I plan on coming back.

The food was pretty good, loved my burger and my wife loved her wings, but server let someone else walk out with my card and now I’m on the hook for over $100 on someone else’s tab. Management told me to dispute, bank claim got rejected due to lack of information, and I’ve been reaching out to try and get this resolved. If I lived out that way I’d just go and get it sorted out. Willing to bump review back up to how I honestly feel if y’all see this and wanna fix it.“
