Great food and price! Workers were very nice! We did their sampler for 2-3 people. It fed 4 people! Nice portions

I had the chicken sandwich, baked beans, macaroni and cheese. The chicken sandwich was really good until I added some other sauces. The sauces had what tasted like a lot of vinegar in them I'm not for sure if that's what it was or not. The baked beans were really good, except a big slab of meat I got in mine. The macaroni and cheese needed a little salt I think. They have bottle drinks which are really loved Big red, ginger ale, bottle beer, fanta sodas.

It’s one of my husbands favorite stops but I have a hard time finding anything appealing on the menu. I ordered 2 pieces of ribs on the bone, cole slaw & fries with cheese & bacon.The ribs were tough, but they had a good flavor.The cole slaw was good, but not good enough for me to finish.The fries were awesome!!! If I find myself ordering there again, I’m just ordering the covered fries. The bacon chunks were huge and they weren’t stingy at all! It was amazing!!!The tea is SWEET!!! I love sweet tea, but I had to water this down a little. ?No complaints though, I’d rather add a little water, than be served tea flavored water any day!

I got the salad today, 11.99 with brisket, portion size=weak. Ingredients were fresh, chipotle ranch had not even a hint of chipotle. I might have got 2 oz of brisket. Cup of pickles had 3 in it. BBQ sauce cup was half empty. Collards were just okay but for some reason still have stems that are unpleasant. Corn pudding, tasty with lots of overcooked corn as usual, really sticks to the teeth. Would love to try their ribs but at 31.99 a rack I'll go buy 3 and smoke them myself. 23.99/# for brisket is laughable.Their prices have gotten outrageous, while the quality has dwindled. I have gone to this location for years and it just not the same anymore. We need better bbq.The staff, very friendly and willing to help, however I got my meal to go. I'm willing to give this place one more go 'round but if there isn't improvement, I'll gladly eat somewhere else.

I ate at this location on Richmond as I had a horrible experience at the Harrodsburg location and was provided a gift card to try City BBQ again. The restaurant was clean, the staff were pleasant and they answered my questions before ordering. My food was timely and came out hot. I ordered a platter meal, with several meats and sides of mac and cheese and baked beans along with a lemonade. I did not enjoy the mac and cheese, it was quite bland. The baked beans had a sweet sauce that was too sweet for me. The sausage was amazing and the brisket, while a little dry, was quite good and did not even need sauce. I had a spicy sauce I used on the pulled pork, which was okay, but the pulled chicken did not taste good and I only had 1 bite. The lemonade was quite good.Overall, I'd say it was average. The sausage was excellent, the brisket was good, but the pork was average, while the sides and chicken weren't to my liking.

I had a previous bad experience and left a review. I was asked to contact them and they send a credit for 2 more meals to give it another try. The employees were great, friendly this time. This time the chicken was red and very watery (I took it home and finished cooking it) the bathrooms were dirty and broken, I had to go retrieve part of my order, and it just does not taste as good as other places. Stars are important and I gave you 4 only because you sure tried by having us try it again.

Took my 92 year old Mom for a birthday lunch. I got the pulled pork sandwich topped with creamy coleslaw and a side of potato salad. Mom wanted to get the ribs so she was glad to be able to order individual rib bones since she didn't want a slab of ribs. She loved the ribs and potato salad too. Would definitely go back.

I love City BBQ! Their greens are delicious. The Judges Sampler is more than enough food for Mt husband and I. We always have left overs. Food is always so good.

My family loves City Barbecue! I get the half chicken, my husband gets the ribs. My son get a brisket sandwich and my daughter gets the pork sandwich. Everything is alway juicy and delicious. The side items are great! I wish they’d bring back the cucumber salad and the BLT, my son loved the BLT a lot!

Price compared to quality is subpar. No idea How they can charge what they do for the lackluster product they provide. Paid $15 for a pound of pulled smoked chicken. Should’ve paid $4.99 for a rotisserie chicken at Costco and saved 10 bucks and it would’ve been much better!
