Sold out of pulled pork at 7:44pm??!! How does a BBQ restaurant run out of BBQ?? What a disappointment!!

I pre-ordered a party pack for my son's graduation celebration this weekend and the food was excellent! The meat was perfectly seasoned and not overly salty which is one of the things I find with some bbq places. We had only 8 guests and I ordered the 14-16 serving size to make sure there was enough food and even some leftovers. It was PLENTY and totally worth the cost. The green beans and Mac and Cheese are also soooooo delicious. I selected the shredded pork and shredded chicken and YUMMMM! read more

One of the most professional attentive and best barbecue places I've been to. The food is fast, fresh, delicious and plentiful. Be sure to download the city barbecue app and like them on Facebook and they give you a free dessert. You can also accumulate points with their rewards program which is a wonderful addition. At the self-service counter where you get your sodas and beverages there also homemade pickles which are made fresh every day by one of the cooks. There's a plethora of barbecue sauces ranging from hot spicy tangy and sweet. The staff are extremely happy helpful and they seem to love their jobs which makes the experience of coming here pleasant. It is one of The few places in Charlotte I have frequented more than five times. read more

This place is a joke. Ran out of Texas toast. Ran out of beans. Ran out of brisket( what Barbeque place runs out f*****g Barbeque). Ran out of sweet tea. Ran out of fried pickles. Like what.... is there anything left of the menu I can order? Sure there is! Cole slaw! Sure I'll just have cole slaw for dinner! Once we got some chicken and stuff that we didn't order it was cold by the time we went to sit down. Yeah. Pretty much sums up my first time here. And now I'm sitting here dipping my Mac and cheese in Barbeque sauce cause that's all they got read more

Love city BBQ always come back for more! they catered my wedding as well! Would 10/10 recommend

The food was delicious!!! I ordered the potato salad 3 times out of the week I came to visit my mother I know greedy

Fast line quick service Great food what more do you want. We have been trying to find a decent BBQ place on this side of town since Gregs closed and here it is. We got the Judge Combo and it was too much food for 4 people had to pack it up to take home. My friend said the lemonade and gumbo is great. The only disappointment was the mac and cheese I wanted more home style and it was more the the commercial velveta with macaroni. One of the better BBQ places in charlotte area! read more

My First time trying the establishment and using Grubhub I can say I was very pleased with both. I tried the pulled chicken with the sweet sauce, Baked Bean with Brisket with the Mac and cheese. I enjoyed it very much was worried at first when I ordered the pulled chicken then read the reviews about it not having seasoning, but mine was season very well so no complaints from me. The Grubhub driver was very nice and was very surprise that it came at a good time, was less then 30 mins. Will order again! read more

Finally made it to City BBQ and it didn't let us down. I had the pork sandwich with fries and wife had the chicken fingers. Sandwich had plenty of meat and it was very good. Wife enjoyed her chicken fingers too. Place was clean and service was friendly. Only issue is that it is a little more expensive than the other BBQs since a side order is not included but we will return soon anyway. read more

Wow! So many choices....chicken, pork, sausage, turkey...7 sauces, 12 sides, 2 kinds of Cole slaw and beer or sweet tea to wash it all down. We got the lowdown on the menu from Will behind the counter. He walked us thru entire menu and even offered samples of gumbo for us to try. Diners order and pay at the counter. You can choose booths or tables indoors or sit outside at umbrella-topped tables. There are tv's located throughout tuned to sports venues. We dined late afternoon and there were few other diners at the time. The music over the stereo system was very loud and made conversation difficult. The servings of meat and sides were generous and we took home enough for another meal in the takeout containers provided at the self-serve stations where we got beverages and sauces. I'm definitely coming back for a taste of some of their other specials. read more

Food was good until I went to get a to go box and big roach/water bug crawls out of the box! 1st and last time visit! Maybe having paper boxes sitting around isn't a good idea!!! read more

A friend and I were aimlessly wandering around town and ended up here. He pointed off into the distance and said "what about there?" I was ambivalent as I wasn't that hungered. That was until I open the car door and was assaulted by the most delicious smokey scent. The meats are A++ and the sides are pretty good too. I was not recommend the mac and cheese if you are a true southern person as it's like the stove top kinda thing. As you can see I didn't properly use my yelp resources because the pictures are everywhere. Long story short. I'll be back. Like next week read more

Very impressed with this place! The cowbell was incredible- brisket was so tender! The customer service is seriously on point! The manager was really friendly and our cashier, Ansley, was bubbly and so helpful in finding what we like! Don't pass up the corn pudding- omg! Do yourself a favor and check out this City Barbeque location! read more

Great for pick up, and definitely a better option than any of the nearby fast food. Really nice BBQ. I'd recommend their BBQ tacos or their sandwich with brisket. Definitely get the baked beans. read more

What a great experience! The manager and staff are awesome! Customer service at its finest! Definitely recommend for great food and superb service! read more

I was pretty disappointed with the quantity of food received for the price I paid. I know what they say, "quality over quantity" but the quality wasn't anything special enough for the price I paid. The food was decent but not fulfilling. I ordered the full slab of ribs the first time I went expecting what I ordered, "a full slab of ribs" but no they give me a tiny container filled with what seemed to be a full slab of ribs from a piglet. What a joke! It was something like $25 and I also ordered it for dining in but they gave it to me to go. I was not satisfied at all. Also, the cornbread side they gave us was so small I thought that they'd shrunken a normal sized cornbread. Overall, I am not satisfied with the amount I received for what I paid but the food taste wasn't too bad. If you are not too hungry and are willing to pay for an overpriced "meal" then this is the perfect place for you. read more

We attended for the soft opening. Every single bite was delicious. I can never decide between the entrees and the sandwiches. The banana pudding is a must try! I highly recommend this new location. The setup is a order & pickup at the counter style with plenty of flexible seating. It has a nice, casual vibe. Service is quick and friendly. For the experience, I feel the prices are slightly higher than comparable places which took a star. read more

Great service at City BBQ. The prices of the food are great, too! Definitely recommend the hush puppies and the fries are too good! Definitely a great place for a quick lunch, too! read more

fast and friendly service! This BBQ restaurant is a MUST if you are in town visiting or looking for a great place to cater friends and family that may be visiting for graduation or other events. They have something for everyone and their new Jacked Mac N Cheese is pretty amazing!!! read more

The barbecue is so good! I definitely recommend the chicken and the baked beans with brisket. We got the sampler which was perfect for two people. We were greeted as soon as we walked in the door and when we said it was our first time we got a delicious tasting of the pulled pork, brisket and chicken. The BBQ sauce is amazing but none of the smoked meats need any more taste. Wish I lived closer! I'd come too often! read more

In town for visiting family, this was my first time visiting here. Friendly service and clean atmosphere, and meat was decent. Pickles and jalapenos would've been wonderful if they didn't taste so store-bought, though. read more

Great Barbecue ribs by the bone and also the beef brisket is super!

We went in expecting a not good experience. After telling the cashier it was our first time there, he explained the menu amd gave his recommended choices. We picked 2 meats and 2 sides one drink. Our total came to just over $20. So far love it. The real test came when our order came up. The portions were huge. Hubby amd I shared and there was still left overs. We got the pulled Chipotle rib meat and a very tender full flavor cut of brisket. Yum yum. I am not big on barbecue but this is my favorite place for it so far in Charlotte. The price is great and the food delish. Plus the service is superb. We were checked on a few times and even offered dessert. It was my birthday dinner and I did get the chocolate cake. Must say its very close to my own recipe. I don't know that I could tell them apart if side by side. 10 stars for service and 8 for food(hubby wanted wings). Keep up the friendly service and laid back atmosphere. read more

Yuuuummy!!!! My fiancé and I both got pulled pork and it was delicious!!!! Mac n cheese could use a little salt and pepper, but it was still good! Hush puppies were on point! Cheese fries hit the spot!!! Cute interior, kind employees, and quick service!!! Highly recommend!!! read more

Speechless. From the staff, namely Kaley and Tia but the kitchen staff was equally pleasant, to the unrivaled quality of every bite of food, I search no more for off-the-hook BBQ and indescribably good sides. I'm born and raised CLT native and like to think that over the past 43 years I've developed a discriminating taste for good BBQ, I have not one complaint about the food or service here. I eagerly await the next chance to visit City BBQ in Matthews/CLT!!!!!! read more

Super Good!! I really loved how they make the pulled pork sandwiches in front of you, pulling the pork out right in front of you! Really good stuff, honestly the best BBQ joint in Charlotte NC. Management really makes a mark here, they really do take care of their customers. Don't over order, one serving is huge!!! read more

I went here for lunch the other day with my husband. I was drooling before I even walked in the door! The smell of BBQ wafting through the air was delicious! I love that this place has lunch specials, its a much better deal then doing drive thru salad at Zaxbys. About the same price, but you are getting so much more food. I went with the pulled pork and potato salad and green beans. The pulled pork was great and the swine wine was to die for! I love spicy, vinegary BBQ sauce. The potato salad was good. I love a more mashed version of it. I didn't like the green beans. They were too mushy. I thought the service was great and appreciated the guy in the dining room coming over to pick up my dishes. I will most definitely be back. read more

First time at this location or any other. Food was really good although for the price I thought the meat portion should be a bit larger. I had the pulled pork and tried all their sauces. The "Brush Fire" sauce was really good! Definitely will be back! read more

We live in the neighborhood behind here and were so excited to get a restaurant within walking distance. We LOVE city BBQ and we've never been disappointed with our meal. It's always fresh and delicious. The associates are all very friendly and accommodating. I came with my grandparents and my grandfather is in a power wheelchair, they went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and routes were accessible and even brought a high chair over for my daughter before I even sat down. Can't beat the food or the service. Also, it was their pulled pork, not the Hawthornes pizza that put me in labor ;) read more

The barbecue is average the sides are too some of the sauces are tasty however my main issues was the price for quality the sides aren't included unless you order a certain amount of meat which is a drag because everything here is average read more

Even in the midst of a pandemic it's still comforting to know that you can still find good barbecue recently stopped in to city BBQ and ordered a pound of barbecue some baked beans and was not disappointed I've been eating barbecue for many many years and this is some of the best I have ever had so give it a try read more

LOVED this place! Came to Charlotte from Canada for 10 days and we are here twice! Great menu with loads of choices. I think we tried it all! Must have the ribs!!! So good. Staff was friendly, fast and welcoming. If you are craving BBQ, this place won't disappoint! read more

As a customer I was very displeased with this location. (Monore/sardis). My chicken was uncooked blood appear once it was cut. Brisket dry.food had no season.. Sausage link hard and not good.. Collard Greens taste terrible no season.. Bake beans average. Tea was great have not taste the cake we both because I was just displeased and ready to go... I ate at university location and the food was finger licking good ordered more because it was so good. read more

Very good BBQ pricey but good. Don't like Pepsi though but they really need to clean their utensils better I had to give back their silverware and use plastic.pretty good for a first time. Was just here and after ordering went to get a large drink. 2.49 plus tax and can only drink Diet Coke or Pepsi. They were out of diet and told me they were gonna fix it. My granddaughter went up and asked and they said didn't have anymore. Would have been nice to post a note on the soda fountain l. By the time I got refund on drink and got a water cup the food was cold. Is this normal for city bbq? Excellent customer service from all involved Had dinner last night they made up for last time very well. Good job. Best customer service in the area!!! read more

The food was very good. I had the turkey and corn pudding and the pudding was excellent. My only issue is the wait and they seemed to run out food. We had to wait 20 minutes for cornbread which came with the meal. We were just about done eating when we finally got the bread. They were also out of brisket and had to substitute other sides. Although I enjoyed the did I would suggest going early in the day to make sure they have everything in the menu available. read more

Awesome customer service! I order so often I don't even have to say my name anymore when I go in to pick up. Love the pulled pork sandwich and fresh crispy fries! Brush Fire BBQ sauce is the best! read more

Awesome food and great service! Definitely will come again!! Happy Birthday Guys! Keep up the good work! read more

I've ordered their ribs to go before and gotten them in a sleeve meant to fit the whole rack. This time, when I opened the bag, I got a bunch of individual, loose ribs. When you order a whole rack, they (usually) give you an entire rack; hence the sleeve. These were dry and not as good as usual; probably some leftovers. It's a shame because, since BBQ isn't cheap, you shouldn't be getting dry leftovers. read more

The brisket is insanely delicious. We ordered the brisket and pork belly sandwich, and although the pork was good the brisket was better. The potato salad, fries and okra were all good, though the collard greens were quite salty. read more

Way too expensive for what you get. Sides taste like they were bought at the Food Lion down the street. Meat is extremely dry. Not going back. Better Barbecue within 5 miles. read more
