We arrived near the end of the lunch session, around 2:45 and there were very few people in the place. We were greeted warmly by the ladies at the counter and they patiently waited for us to make our selections. I ordered the brisket platter with smoked Gouda Mac and cheese and braised mustard greens. My brother ordered the shrimp and catfish platter with a double order of fried okra. I don't know if it was the time of day or what, but my brisket was dry and tough. I had to use the different sauces to even get it down. The Mac and cheese was very overcooked and the pasta just mushed out. The greens were pretty good, although a little sweeter than I prefer. On the other hand, my brother really enjoyed his fish, shrimp and okra. My experience could have been a fluke. read more

My favorite BBQ in Baton Rouge! We usually pick up some pulled pork or brisket from here if we are bringing food for a potluck. Their brisket grilled cheese and brisket quesadillas are what I rotate between when I go. Seating is limited, and they also have a window you can walk up to and pick up to go orders. read more

My boyfriend convinced me to try this place again, and I'm glad he did! We ordered to go. I got a double meat combo with sweet potato casserole and mac and cheese. He got the same sides, but with ribs and chicken. Unfortunately, they gave him the wrong order. We received a double meat combo with sausage and beans instead and no ribs. Luckily we called and were able to go back to get what was missing just before close. On the bright side, I was able to try the sausage and beans and they were both good. The sweet potato casserole is to die for! I really enjoyed the flavor and texture of the brisket. The boudin balls were underwhelming. Overall, I enjoyed this meal! read more

Hannah Q Smokehouse - The "meat" on the left is 100% grade A FAT. The meat is that Lil portion on the right. I got jacked by Hannah. - Barbeque Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

We drive 25 minutes to pick up because we did like this place so much. Tonight my husband gets home with the half order of cheese fries, and I'm questioning if people know that cheese is one of the main ingredients in this. I was lucky to see 3 shreds of cheese on this and BARELY any bbq sauce. So basically I paid $10 for French Fries. Even after adding the small amount of shredded cheese in my fridge that I had, these still were not what I consider CHEESE fries. (Compare my picture to the few others that have been posted in the past) Let's talk about my pulled pork sandwich...since when can pulled pork be picked up with hands like it's a hamburger? That's right - I picked up the entire pork "patty". I'm going to assume the pork was old and they stuck it on the grill. I just don't understand what it's going on with the pork. The bun was also stale (beyond being toasted). The reasons why restaurants are closing at an epic rate is because of exactly this. I MIGHT give this restaurant one more chance but the food from the last few visits have been less than appetizing. On top of that, they are passing the credit card service charge on to patrons with the increased prices and now way less than edible food. read more

While attempting to work with the owner through his assistant, they limited our choices to sides to accommodate my wife's request. I was told no. This is what was discussed 4 months prior to the event and out can't be changed. The owner refused to visit the venue as requested saying I don't go until a few weeks from the event. I advised him there are too many moving parts to our wedding to make time that close to the event. I requested the other 2 sides my wife wants as extras and was never responded too. They want to charge $90 per hour for 2 servers each who can't bring the plates to the tables. The venue is extremely small and with 50 guests out well be better to only have the 2 servers moving about instead of all the guests moving truth a line. Now mind you, there will be only 50 people there in a confined space. I was denied and told in short, oh sorry he can't accommodate you that day. What hideous customer service!! DO NOT USE FOR YOUR EVENT! Save yourself a lot of hassle and stress, pick someone else! read more

I am out of towner live in Orlando, FL I will be working from Baton Rouge for a few months and found this gem what amazing food wow one the best food I ever had everything was so great the taste was amazing and they give so much it's really my favorite please to eat in Baton Rouge!!!! read more

Hannah Q has the best wings in Baton Rouge. Before you excoriate me or that statement above, let me explain. I love smoked wings. Besides brisket and jalapeno cheese sausage, they are my favorite smoked food. Hannah Q does a wonderful job with theirs and I would rank them only slightly behind Blue Oak in Nola. Hanah Q is located on the now reduced-capacity Government Street. It used to be my go-to shortcut but the traffic is awful thanks to the geniuses who came up with the road diet. But I digress. The point of this rant is to suggest you get here early. Waiting till 12 or later may mean a traffic jam. Ordering is done here at the counter and delivered to your table. The wings come whole so plan on some disassembly at your table. If you are at work, like I always am when I come here, you will need to wash your hands extra well. You will also need to eat with co-workers who won't say anything as you get your hands dirty eating wings. The wings are smokey, juicy, and packed with bbq flavor. I do not think they fry after smoking but if they do, it doesn't ruin the wing. I do not like overcooked or super crispy wings. I like smoked wings and Hannah Q delivers. These are legit good. If you like blue cheese with your wings, their version is different than the typical one and is also great. I don't know what makes it different but you will know what I mean when you order it. The brisket is among the best I have had in Baton Rouge. BR does not have a lot of good BBQ so it is nice to get real brisket here. My one complaint with Hannah Q is the sauce. It is way too sweet. I believe they make a mustard or vinegar-based one but it is not on the tables. Ask for it when you get there. If you are in BR and want BBQ, check out Hannah Q. read more

This place was solidly tasty for our Louisiana visit. We craved BBQ. He ordered fried fish and shrimp platter with curly fries. It was not Not bbq or smoked, just simple fried seafood. I ordered a 2 meat combo with baby back ribs and and smoked wings. Everything was deliscious. I tried every bbq sauce they had to offer. The vinegar and mustard sauces were behind the counter and the mustard sauce was my fave. Hospitality/service was great and the place stays busy with local people ordering take out. Great place to sit And eat on the go. read more

The BBQ is the best ive ever had. Especially the brisket. The customer service is great. And they finally fixed that air conditioner! This place ruined all other BBQ for me. 10/10. read more

Hannah Q is the best bbq in Baton Rouge! I've tried everything from the brisket, ribs, pulled pork sandwiches, the red beans and sausage, and the candied yams! Most recently last night, my husband and I ordered some takeout for dinner because it's Thanksgiving week and we needed a quick bite! He ordered a brisket sandwich and I ordered the brisket quesadilla with jalapeños! OMG, the flavor and tenderness of the meat! The chefs know exactly what they are doing. This restaurant is the most consistent bbq I've had in a long time! Next time we'll take pictures before we devour our food! read more

My favorite salad in BR is the crispy buffalo chicken salad with blue cheese dressing! Last night, while traveling thru the area, i stopped to pock one up for supper. My brother got the regular hamburger and we shared both. That is now my favorite burger as well. And the service was great. from conversation while we waited to the quick handoff. Love Hannah Q on govt! read more

Hannah Q's Mid-City location is absolutely among the top best food in Baton Rouge. It's also top-notch service. The staff is so helpful and friendly regardless of what day of the week or time of the day I've gone and when ordering & picking up for many eaters, my order has always been 100% right! The staff is always helpful in answering any questions no matter how busy they are. We keep going back for more Hannah Q's !! read more

The service was really good. The smoked wings were too dry for me. The vinegar based sauce and ranch are really good. The Mac and cheese did nothing for me. Tasted very bland and I was really looking forward to it since it's made with Gouda. The okra was fried nicely. I've heard positive things, so I'll return to try something else. read more

As far as Baton Rouge goes there isn't too many fantastic places like there are , in say, a city like New Orleans. Why? I blame the people, they'd rather crowd into the newest chain for 6 months than support something local. For instance, Baton Rouge let Pinetta's close...what a tragedy. Anyway, on to Hannah Q, I can say hands down, unless there is some place I am unaware of, is the best BBQ in Baton Rouge and the prices are extremely reasonable for the quantity of food. I have seen a bit of an uptick on price as of late, but all in all a great deal. The Brisket fries with the spicy sauce IS my favorite and is unmatched. The fries are curly and crispy and the brisket is tender, flavorful, and juicy. I crave it! The other items on the menu I really love are the brisket quesadillas and the smoked wings and these aren't half wings they are full wings. So tasty and so delicious; I never miss an opportunity to grab some Hannah Q when I am in Baton Rouge. read more

The food is delicious and the portions of protein are large enough to share! We spend under $40 bucks and we're able to walk out with leftovers! The young man who took our order suggested the Smoked Gouda Mac and also the Beans. Both were delicious! My husband got a brisket sandwich and I got the mixed Brisket plate! 10/10 recommend coming here during lunch or for dinner with friends or family when they are truly hungry! The seating is a bit limited but just as quickly as you need a seat someone is gettingYou will leave very happy and pleased! read more

This is a review of my second experience. My first meal was great, so I suggested this to my mother in law. She got the 1/4 chicken, sausage, and ribs. I got the ribs and brisket. When I ate my ribs, they were tough and hard to cut into, like the membrane was still on the bone. The brisket (marbled) was amazing. My MIL said the chicken was not cooked all the way through and I felt like the ribs could've been cooked longer as well. We both got the loaded potato salad, which was amazing. Customer service was great. I was just a little embarrassed telling her this was the best bbq in Baton Rouge. read more

Hanna Q Smokehouse has brought their flavor of quality BBQ to Mid-City! I was familiar with the brand from their original location on Airline Highway in Prairieville, so I was glad to see it open up a second location in the middle of the Government Street Arts and Entertainment District. The Government Street location has a number of great features. They have an interior dining area, divided into two sections. There is an outside covered dining area at the back (with a TV). They have a walk-up window on the side, which is great for grabbing a call-in order. There are even some small tables out front for outdoor dining. Parking is on the side or in the rear. The main attraction is of course the BBQ! It's hard to select a favorite, but I think if I had to do so I would go with the smoked wings. This are extreamly well done, and are flavorful while still being juicy. There are all your favorite BBQ meats, and even smoked turkey for a lighter choice. There are also great sandwiches, my favorite is probably the Pit Sandwich. This towering creation has several meats, and coleslaw, on a toasty bun. There are also fried seafood po-boys, that someone not fond of BBQ, or wanting something different could choose. You can make these a combo with a side and a drink. Another different option are the bowls, which can make a decent lunch. These include my favorite, the BBQ Spaghetti. Other options are the pork roast with rice and gravy, red beans and rice, and Jambalaya. These come with a toast slice. I guess we should mention the sides. These are a bit different than your average BBQ joint. Sure, you can have coleslaw and beans. However, you can also have sweet potato casserole, Smoked Gouda Mac & Cheese, Braised Greens, Loaded Potato Salad, and Southern Corn Pudding. There are also the sauces, they have four! So if you are ready to get your BBQ craving satisfied, Hanna Q is a great place to choose. It's a step above the average, and worth checking into. read more

Ordered a combo online and paid including a tip. They were out of unsweet tea which I ordered at 7:50 p.m. Was offered sweet tea only to be out of that as well. Can't drink soft drinks so was told i'm sorry the combo is the same price as ordering without a drink. I regret tipping in advance online. read more

I live right down the street from this location and I am a to-go regular. I have been getting the same to go order for awhile and that would be the brisket fries and coleslaw as a side. It is usually ready ahead of time and the fries hit the spot when I want something cheesy and meaty. I have gotten it with jalapeños before but I find it to be a little too spicy for my taste. The portion is huge and for me, I can eat it over three meals. The slaw is very unique and I like the bit of extra seasoning that you get with the sauce. It's also a refreshing counterpoint to the fries. This time I also got the chocolate pudding but have yet to eat it. I would highly recommend getting food here. read more

I have eaten 3 times from Hannah q, first time was dining in house the food and service was great, last 2 times were take out and I ordered baby back ribs , so the top piece was actually the baby back, underneath was a piece of meat that I could not identify. so if I decide to ever eat there again I know to either dine in, or check the to go order before leaving. Cashier was very friendly and professional, but we have to do better on to go orders, presentation on to go orders are just as important as in house. read more

First time here and we got a bunch of food to try from this place. Some food was amazing and some were pretty mediocre. Starts with my favorite was the brisket; it was super soft and juicy, you don't even need to chew soft. Next favorite was the burger, very flavorful, the Pattie was a bit dry but I was still satisfied. I thought the chicken and the sausages were decent, nothing special. What I did not like was the ribs, it was extremely dry; it seems like they cooked it a bit long. I am a bit disappointed because I was really craving ribs that day and it was so dry I didn't even enjoy it. So I had varied opinions about this place, some were really good and some were really bad. Maybe the ribs would be different another day but it shows that the food may not be consistent. read more

I had the double hamburger combo add cheese and bacon and raw onion. My husband got the bbq spaghetti he liked it. I didn't really love my burger and neither of us could eat the bacon. The bacon was either steamed or boiled but let me say it was GROSS! The place was clean, you seat yourself and fix your own fountain drinks. Would I go back, hmn Yeah but only if I was n the area and had no where else to go with a dine in area. read more

I love the Smoked Chicken and Gouda Mac-n-Cheese at Hannah Q. I've tried the brisket but to me, it isn't as flavorful as the chicken. The service is always great. The last time I went, there was an issue with our order that made it take a little longer than expected and they went above and beyond to accommodate our wait time without us even having to mention it. read more

We go here often. Our favorite entree is the brisket platter. We order it lean (less fat). You get thick, long slices. For sides, we typically do sweet potatoes, corn pudding, and mac and cheese or fries. You get the choice of vinegar based and/or mustard based barbecue sauce. I get both and mix them together. The only complaint is that it often takes a good 15 minutes to get your food when you order there (eat in or to-go). If that means fresh food then I'm fine with it. We will go back. read more

So the food was delightful. Hand pulled chicken sandwich was the show stopper but everything was really good. Being a Texas girl I have had lots of barbecue ..this is the easily the best BBQ in the state of Louisiana. As to Service....it's a walk up counter ordering kinda place. This may you think they don't do much but you would be wrong. Food is brought to you... they offer to get you utensils if you have forgotten.... They even doubled back to check on you to see if you were satisfied. The care seemed genuine in the food and service. Delicious! Go Here! read more

Note: 1) been here once, on Tuesday (not rush hour) 2) went with my family Pros: 1) great service 2) good foods 3) clean facilities Cons: 1) small restaurant 2) small tables 3) can get pretty noisy It was a special day that I was celebrating here with my family. It was my parents' anniversary, and my brother came back to eat out with us. We found a small little restaurant barbecue place so I had to try it. When we first went in, we had no idea what food we were getting or what we should be expecting. We stood in line in front of the big menu on the wall for a solid 10-20 minutes deciding on what to eat. The cashiers were patient and waiting for us to get it situated. As you may have seen with your own family, we just could never decide on anything. When we finally got our orders straight, we went to the counter and was greeted by a smiling cashier that was patiently waiting for our orders. After we ordered, we thanked the cashier and went to sit down at a table. The cashier would usually put our orders on the counter and have us pick them up. However, the cashier decided to deliver the food to our table to help us. It was really nice of him. The food was pretty good. The brisket was nice and juicy. The smoked Gouda Mac was really good. It had a great cheese-y flavor and was pretty good, especially with the taste difference. The pulled pork and beans were more like regular baked beans where I couldn't taste the pulled pork in it. The Texas toast was good and flakey. It was not too oily which was great. I didn't feel bad after eating that meal where I would normally when I'm eating tons of fatty meats and oily food. The ribs were pretty good as well but not as fall off the bone as I would have liked. The corn pudding was a little too sweet for my taste. The loaded potato salad was pretty good and worked more as a palette cleanser than a source of sour and rich from the mayo and the potato. The fried catfish were good and well fried but I believe that it could be crispier. For the food, I would have to take a half star off as it had not yet reached what it could be. I would have to take the other half star off of the restaurant from the placement of the furniture and the style of the restaurant. The walkway to see the menu and the cashier line was way too small, and we had to squish ourselves down whenever we were letting people through. It made the restaurant feel really cramp, more than it does just looking at the space. The tables themselves were really tiny and could barely fit all of my family's food (4 total) on the table. Overall, this place is a pretty good place to try out if you're feeling the need for barbecue. The barbecue here is smokey and the service here is great! read more
