    Stopped here after running an errand in Newark. Ordered a Pulled Pork Sandwich, Baked Beans and Fries. Pulled Pork was nice tasty, very moist. Beans had a nice bbq flavor to them. The fries were quite tasty BUT you get a big bad score when I had to use 5 ketchup bottles to get enough for my fries. Another words no one checked the dining room before you opened.

    Good BBQ... City Barbeque is always good. The store has a southern BBQ joint feel and atmosphere. Being a counter service restaurant limits your exposure to the service. The only issue is if you get there late, they are out of about everything. What they had left made a delicious pulled pork and sausage sandwich with baked beans. It is worthy of stopping by.

    Pick 2 - fatty brisket and 3 ribs Sides of Mac and cheese and corn pudding. Texas toast

    Pros: Good location Fast service Fresh sides and lots of options Decent selection of beverages Cons: You can choose either fatty or lean brisket Meats need sauce since they are kind of bland on their own Indoor seats don't have much space between them Pro tip: The corn pudding is yummy Buy 2 sides and get a buck off

    WOW I don't believe I have anything to complain about! Yes they get a 5 star, Thursday eve tables available, the restaurant has a friendly atmosphere with a typical barbecue /pub ambiance. Good for a casual date night or a girls/guys night out. I waited to order less than 5 minutes. Cheerfully greeted, helpful staff (I had reviewed the menu in the parking lot but it had been a long day). Patiently waiting while I choose my order. Ordered a brisket sandwich, chicken wings and fries with cheese and bacon. Now for the kicker, I dislike brisket (sorry Texas) to the point of NEVER ordering it, BUT on the recommendation of a friend I gave it a shot. Here is the result, I don't like smoked brisket but the brisket sandwich was fabulous, I ate 1/2 the sandwich without sauce, no added salt or pepper basically in bbq language NAKED. awesome flavor, perfect amount of char, moist and tasty I might start ordering brisket. Now the chicken wings were small in size but not in flavor. Perfectly smoked still moist and in my opinion better without any sauce just a little salt and pepper. On to the fries, now my order was to go, and that's why I'm leaving this for last. The flavor was spot on! But the fries were not cooked long enough not for the moisture in the nacho cheese to destroy the texture. Again I say the flavor was great and if ordering for a table order the fries are good, I just wouldn't order them to go again.

    This is the driest meat I've ever been served at a restaurant. I filled up on bread and sides because the meat was not good at all. The service was good and quick. There were no people here at all and it's the 4th of July weekend.

    I ordered online & picked up. Got a brisket sandwich, fries, & peach cobbler. With a sweet tea. The cobbler was great The tea was sweet. Good sweet. I'm from the south, was in Ohio on business, this is good sweet tea. The brisket was dry, no flavor. Seriously couldn't eat it with bread because it couldn't handle anything else dry on it. The sauce was okay but it only helped by wetting the brisket. (it took me 4 minutes to get back to my hotel)

    Sub par ribs--Noting but fat and gristle it seemed. Brisket nothing like the slow cooked stuff in Texas. Fries are good though.

Our dinners were SO good, we wanted to go back! The next visit was the same...GREAT food, still understaffed. That night the music was far from what most would consider relaxing. We intentionally sat away from the kitchen so that we could converse across the table. Our last visit...and it may be our LAST for good. Extremely understaffed, horrible music and half of our party received their food about the time the other half was finishing. This place has amazingly good food, but they probably would have lot more guests if they were able to staff adequately. Everyone that was working, on each of these occasions, were doing their best to insure diners were well taken care of. Last night's litany of excuses for their inadequacies was unacceptable. The owners should spend some time either trying to keep this great food establishment open or close it for lack of attention. Thank you to all who are trying to do their best. To not have the support of your owners is a thankless place. We truly hope they can turn it around.​

    Great stop for some quick barbecue! He runs out of things…read morealmost every day so get there early to make sure you get what you want. My favorite entree: the beef brisket My favorite side: potato salad & Mac n cheese My fav sauce: sweet sauce All the meat is very tender and good. I liked trying all the sauces too. The sides are good. Must stop and try this place. Perfect for feeding a bunch of people or for a quick stop if you are in a hurry.

    Wow, this is REALLY, REALLY GOOD BARBEQUE...!!!…read more The brisket is fantastic. I tried the smoked meat "naked" first - without sauce. It was smoke-forward, tender, and absolutely delicious. Very excellent. The sauces are delicious and based on a 70 year old family recipe handed down from the pitmaster's grandfather to his father to him. I especially liked mixing the black pepper sauce with the sweet sauce. Great sauces. The sides are all house made family recipes. The vinegar coleslaw was refreshing and tasty. The green beans were nicely seasoned and delicious. The honey cornbread was tasty. For $13 I got more food than I could eat. For the quality this is a bargain. Jay is the owner, operator, and pitmaster. He's a 3rd generation pitmaster and barbeque joint owner, and definitely knows his way around a smoker. He's also a really nice guy. I'm quite sure we will return again and again - definitely worth stopping if you're anywhere east of Columbus. The rig is permanently located at 10961 Hebron Road - 1/4 mile south of I-70 on the way into the town of Buckeye Lake. Highly recommended. Dad and Grandpa would be proud...
