    two plates of food
    Steve M.

    Stopped in on recommendation from online reviews. Eaten a lot of Q in Florida but this was fair at best. Ribs were dried out and over cooked. Some of the rib meat was unchewable. Pulled pork sandwich was OK but nothing to write home about. Corn nuggets were tasty but a lot of oil from fryer still in batter. Served with ranch dipping sauce. Coleslaw was fair at best. Went out of our way just to go here. Will keep looking next time through. #TaSteflaroad

    This is the second time I've eaten here. I only came this time because my husband is fond of the place. I think I would like the food better if the atmosphere was nicer. It's just so rundown that it distracts from the food. I have only had the pork. I like that they grill the bun but the meat really lacks a smoky taste. There is zero evidence of a smoke house so I guess they prepare the meat offsite. I think I'm the future I will pass.

    This is an unpretentious looking little place, but I sure enjoyed my BBQ beef sandwich and fries.

    Ask for Briana to wait on you! Smoked Turkey lunch special was a good deal. Plenty of meat, bbq…read morebeans, cole slaw and garlic bread. The flavors on everything was distinct. I'm still trying to figure out the Sweet BBQ sauce. I think my bride nailed it when she said it tasted like it has an orange marmalade taste to it. It was so good that I covered my French fries with it. I usually don't eat french fries!

    I frequent the Chiefland area at least once a year for our vacation/visits to family. This is one…read moreof the first restaurants I ever ate at in the area, and I make it a point to visit here at least once every trip. Bill's is a family-owned barbecue restaurant located on the main road in "downtown" Chiefland. It has a private parking lot, and there are multiple entrances/exits both on the main road, and the road that runs behind the building. On this day, we visited for lunch on a Monday in June around noon. There is definitely a regular lunch crowd that eats at this place, so it was lively. However, we had no problem getting a table right away. I have personally never had to wait for a table when dining here. For seating, there are primarily booths with some regular tables. When I visit, I typically get whatever the Daily Special is. These seem to stay the same week-to-week, and since this was a Monday it was the Pork Sandwich with the Salad Bar for $11.25. However, they have a large menu with various lunch specials, salads, sandwiches, and other barbeque items to choose from. There are also family packs and take-out options available. I personally love the Salad Bar here. My favorite lettuce is iceberg, and that is the base they offer. They have most of the typical toppings you would expect to find on a Salad Bar, along with some pasta/broccoli/chicken salad-type offerings. There are several different dressings, along with crackers and chips to pair with your creations. For the Pork Sandwich, you get to choose between a bun or garlic toast. I always opt for the garlic toast, as it seems many other do also. It is not pulled pork, but rather thicker slices piled on the bread. The sandwich does not come with sauce, but on the table there are three different barbeques to choose from - regular, sweet, or hot. As typical, the sandwich was great and the meat was not dry at all. Our server was kind and took great care of us during our lunch. The staff seems to get to know their customers, as it appears they recognize most patrons when they are coming in. I enjoyed this particular visit to Bill's, as I typically do. Especially with the daily and lunch specials, I believe it is a good value for quality food. It has a small town atmosphere that is comforting, making you feel right at home. I would definitely recommend giving Bill's a try if you find yourself in the area, or are looking for a new spot to try.

    Food was fantastic! Stop here you won't be sorry! We got the brisket and their homemade bbq sauce…read moreit was out of this world

So this is a little spot that you blink an eye your gonna miss it so definitely keep them open because this is one you shouldn't pass by as that brisket was some of the most flavorful delicious smoked meat I've ever had the rub they put on it is thick and flavorful the meat was falling apart and beyond good like I'm still thinking about it when I write this just how good it was! Their sauce was also really good like just perfect and full of flavor they have a bunch of it on the counter so definitely get some you'll be happy you did because that's just more flavor on top of some amazing Q! Their Mac&Cheese was also very good super cheesy and totally fresh made which went super well with that bbq goodness! Their baked beans were also some of the best ones I've ever had they had a thick sauce around them and were sweet but not too sweet but just perfect enough that I totally enjoyed them with every bite! Their sweet tea was also outstanding delicious flavorful and that sweet tea that you totally want on a hot humid Florida day! Their staff was beyond friendly from the start to the end where they opened the window to ask us how our food was then noticed when we were leaving and asked if they could refill our drinks beyond awesome service! This is a small little spot with some outdoor seating that's shaded pretty good so it's eat it there or in one of the many places to park around the location as there isn't much to it just awesome food! Overall this really is some of the best BBQ I've ever had and I've had BBQ all over the country and right here they are doing it beyond right we will indeed be coming back here again at some point as this honestly always just too good not to visit again so if your driving up or down I 75 it's right off the freeway and they even have a drive-thru so there is no reason not to stop to eat some in the car or on their outdoor patio area!

The sign out front advertises Thursday night special is a prime rib dinner. Hmmm. I wonder how much a piece of prime rib will cost here? Prime rib elsewhere runs about $26 or more, depending on the sides you get with it. So I go in and wait while they're clearing some tables, but this nice tall fellow asks me if I'm also waiting for a table and I reply with a smile and a yes. He asks how many? I hold up my index finger and he smiles and asks if I'd like to be seated outside on the porch--it's a nice evening, not hot--it's screened in and there's no bugs, so I knod approvingly and grab myself a small table with just the two seats. Also seated outside happened to be a lovely older couple who asked this fellow about their reservations coming up to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary. I was unaware you could reserve the back porch for special events along with the "back yard" that's littered with the odd seating from rocking chairs to picnic benches, games of all kinds and even a quasi fire pit. Looks like they're going to have a great time with their family--some of whom are flying in from as far as Oregon. The interior is almost like walking into a Cracker Barrel but not as crowded--gifts, canned goods, pickled things, candy and lip balm. Cute cards and bottled wine. Everything intriguing and eye-catchingly clean and dust free. I've found that annoys me when items are left to gather dust and I think to myself "is it extra for the accumulation of dust on top?". I go ahead and decide to try their prime rib special, but forego the baked potato because there's no way I could eat all those carbohydrates...I get a small side salad and a small serving of "cowboy" beans, which are probably pinto beans . I also order their "cowboy" egg rolls and figure I'll eat a little and take the rest home. My salad comes to me and it's nothing fancy, but fresh and crisp. Then my egg rolls. Dipped in some ranch, they're really good. Coleslaw, briskety goodness. Not far into my first 1/2 of an egg roll, out comes my prime rib and it looks GORGEOUS! So glad I decided against getting a huge baked potato, because I ended up pouring the beans on the same plate, where they took a nice swim in the accompanying au jus. I've had lots of prime rib before. Always cooked in an oven and with tons of herbs on the outside. This is one I'd never had before in my whole life. Smoked prime rib. What a flavor difference! Usually, what's on the outside and the au jus and/or horseradish adds some flavor to a prime rib. Smokiness never enters that picture. It's a whole other taste/flavor sensation you're not expecting and are surprised when this tender piece of meat hits your tongue! So good! Will I go back? You betcha! $19.99 for a huge chunky slice of smoked prime rib and two sides? Heck yeah! There's a special most days, I heard. I'm going to hafta check out the rest of the days! Good service, good food and fabulous prices--NOW I know why they were packed!
