Nice place, open inside. You order at the counter and they call You when it's ready. Food was good, had the 2 meat special with beans and potatoes. Only thing that was weird was the meat came as a sandwich. Thought I was ordering a typical 2 meat plate but both were really small sandwiches. Both brisket and pulled pork and were good, just not much of it. Beans were really good too. Potato was good, different than what you usually get at a bbq place. Everything was good, just wish there was more of it read more

I told my cousin I was craving bbq, he wasn't too familiar with many restaurants so we looked up some restaurants nearby and found this one. I'm glad we came here, everything was delicious. We ordered the platter, came with 8 ribs, 2 pounds of meats, corn bread, French fries, 2 sides, and 10 buns. Alot of food for 3 adults, plus I saw they have fried catfish, I had to order that as well. The guys behind the counter were so polite and gave us lots of suggestions. Good size restaurant, clean, and well lit. They have their own parking lot as well. read more

Used to love coming here as the flavor was always something unique and delicious. I had ordered the boneless wings with the sauce on side and added a side of teriyaki sauce. Previously, the boneless wings had come unbreaded and smoked. This time they came breaded like a bag of frozen boneless wings style. They also came with the sauce on them so was very bummed by the service. He did offer to remake them but you know hungry customers don't usually want to make it even more of hassle to remake food. Especially when we are coming in hungry. Big bummer! read more

BackYard Grill - 6 oz. Boneless Wings with Fries - Barbeque Near Me - Sioux Falls, South Dakota

Not a great place. Cafeteria line style ordering. Hard chairs, and dirty table. Brisket was dry, chewy, shredded and on a slider bun. Cheezy hashbrowns were one ice cream scoop sized, and drowning in salt, baked beans tasted over cooked, salty, and served in a very small styrofoam bowl. The two ribs were over cooked, dry, and I think came from a baby pig, they were that small. Not worth the price. Extra small portions, and even smaller flavor, on slider buns. Not real brisket sliced and juicy. Save your money, and go to any other BBQ place. read more

Food is great and so is the service. My 14 year old was full too. Hopefully they can find a new building. They still have the food trucks and catering. Highly recommend. read more

Took my family out for Sunday dinner and thought b-b-q sounded good. We should have gone elsewhere ! Food was mediocre at best ! Meats were dry, buns were probably old. Sides were meh ! Service was pretty much non existent . We ordered meal for 4-5 . The girl working the counter did not know what that was , even though it is on the menu . With only about 10 -12 people there one would think a person might come to the table to check and see if anyone needed lids for leftovers etc . Was going to order a couple ice cream cups to share. 2 flavors were advertised. Counter person stated there was about 1/2 scoop of one flavor left. Hmm? Maybe put a new container out instead of hiding in the back room or..... maybe check on the guests. Would not recommend and will not return . read more

Food was amazing and service was better!!! Must try the gold bbq sauce (I think mustard based). Very good atmosphere with super friendly staff. Will absolutely be back read more

I really wanted to like this place, given that its between my home and my work, but alas, I was disappointed. I got pulled pork sandwich with a side of Mac and cheese and corn bread. The bun was nothing special. The pork was tender and had a nice strong smokey flavor. It was about as good as what I'd expect at the fair, but it was expensive ($10), and not surprisingly, not very filling. Fortunately, there is mac and cheese, right? Well, for something that is made of 2 fairly inexpensive ingredients, I can only characterize the portion as miniscule. It was about 2 tablespoons of Mac and Cheese. There was literally a larger volume of pork on my sandwich than pasta. And the nail in the coffin was the fact that it really wasn't good. Bland in flavor, and the pasta was almost a little chalky, like it was stale or cooked in some odd way. The boneless chicken "wings" were flavorful, despite not being wings (some of it was white meat). Strange, but not a deal breaker. All of the sauces were excellent. The restaurant itself is clean and modern, particularly for a BBQ joint. The service was reasonable. You will enjoy this place more if you have lower expectations and you aren't all that hungry, but honestly why you get BBQ if you wanted a light meal? read more

Fast service, great food, and very friendly service. Affordable meals! Very impressed, might be best place to eat in Sioux Falls.

Great place for a quick bite. The BBQ is very good. It's one of those chipotle/subway styles of ordering where you order and they just dish you up. It's not a fancy sit down or anything. But the food is fantastic read more

Portion Sizes for Bulk Meat order are incredibly tiny and the smoked chicken has to come out of a can.. it's got that canned tuna taste a texture. Seriously disappointed read more

First time coming here, clean interior friendly staff. Got the pulled pork meal and two sides at a reasonable price, especially for BBQ. The cheesy potatoes were surprisingly good but get cold quick. The beans were good but not great. The sandwich itself was delicious, would definitely recommend - I suggest the spicy BBQ sauce as well. read more

BackYard Grill - Pulled Pork Sandwich Meal with Cheesy Potatoes and Baked Beans - Barbeque Near Me - Sioux Falls, South Dakota

I really want to believe that this was just a bad rib day.... because if it was not, I'd like to know where the 4 and 5 star reviews came from! Certainly not my experience. My ribs were horrible... the first couple were okay, but from there on they were way underdone. Im not from SD, so at first I though "maybe that's just the way they make them around here"! Most of my ribs were pink and is some cases red. No way this is a local thing... My Hash brown Casserole Side was equally bad. It might as well been mashed potatoes because it was hard to find anything formed like a hash brown in my mush. To make it even worse, they smashed my serving into the styrofoam container which gave it an even more mashed potato appearance. The other side - coleslaw, was okay. When I pulled up I was a little freaked about the exterior of the building, but yelpers said the inside was nice. Which was true. The place was clean and (beside being freezing) was well decorated and maintained. Yet, some of the tables did not have napkin holders and there is only one garbage can available (for throwing away your shitty ribs)! One other thing, not once was I greeted, welcomed or asked how my meal was. 2 people working, yet not one smile or friendly comment during my dinning Experience. If you are considering eating here you should first drive by McDonalds and see if it's McRib Season... at least that "meat" is cooked, and if you have to throw that Meal away you will save about $20! read more

First time here. Fast-food style order at counter. Got the brisket, but it's actually pulled roast beef, not brisket. Very dry. Wouldnt order again. Others at my table ordered pulled pork and said it was good. Original BBQ sauce is just average. read more

Everything was delicious! But the customer service was GREAT! Was just passing through and found this on our Gluten Free app. Notified the chef we were gluten free, and he let us know there's a dedicated fryer and gave recommendations! read more

Low quality food. Greasy and salty. Not good BBQ, basically meat and sides on a buffet. So bad.

When you think BBQ Brisket you imagine succulent, fatty & burnt edges. Their brisket tasted liked an over cooked and bland shredded roast. Pulled pork was average and bland. Sauces were average at best. read more

Ribs were very good. Pulled pork and brisket were very dry. Chili meh. Decent but nothing to write home about

Had a great dinner tonight! Brisket Slider, Smoked Chicken Slider. Sweet Potato Fries, onion Rings and Chislic so yummy Great server and friendly people read more

I ordered a rack of ribs to go. Online menu said $25. When I paid, they said it was $32. I asked how when online it says $25? Was told the prices were raised, and I don't control the internet, the boss does. That was 1 week ago, and still not changed. This is DECEPTIVE, or lazy, or both. Ribs were also dry, maybe the previous days leftovers. Get it together and do business HONESTLY. read more

One star too many, they were in a hurry to take my money but sure not to prepare my food. Three employees and no one in line, probably didn't even see me leave being to busy screwing around. I guess it is challenging to find people who will actually work these days read more

This place is a hidden gem. The outside of the building looks a little bit run down, but inside it's very nice. Everything is very clean. You come in and order, they give you your number, then you sit down and wait to be called. They are pretty fast. Our party was a size of 12, and we were accommodated fairly. My brother claims this place has the best ribs in towns! I had the pulled pork sandwich. I quickly devoured it. It's not the best pulled pork sandwich in the world, but adequate. I did enjoy the golden mustard on top of it. All in all, I have no complaints, but I was not blown away to where I would give it a 5/5. It's good, but not spectacular. read more

BackYard Grill - Half ribs with fries and a bun. - Barbeque Near Me - Sioux Falls, South Dakota

We finally stopped in to eat at this new restaurant in our part of town. BBQ Back Yard Grill serves pulled pork, brisket, chicken, ribs, and wings, with all of the typical sides. Among my family, we had a pulled pork sandwich, a basket of wings, and a side of ribs. All of the meats were wonderful, and the sides fit the bill. We especially liked the Mac-and-Cheese, the baked beans, and the cornbread. It would be nice if there was a family/variety platter on the menu, but we'll definitely be going back. read more

BEWARE!!! I stopped in to eat dinner at 5 pm and was greeted by the owner who seemed friendly enough AT FIRST. When I asked when they put out fresh sides, he informed me they are "made in the morning and kept all day until they run out." I asked to see the sides behind the case and the sides looked dried out and gross. No thank you. I simply said "ok I think I'm going to pass." He stated "yea I think you should go. If you think you are getting fresh sides anywhere, you are crazy." Ummmm not true and I did not appreciate the way he spoke to me. I stated "I will be sure to leave you a review." He stated "I'm sure you will." So my review overall is to steer clear of this place. The owner is rude. He doesn't believe in throwing out food after his lunch rush and having fresh food for the dinner rush. If you eat here, be ready for a stomach ache bc I'm sure ppl feel sick after eating there later in the day. The health dept will be the next place I call. This restaurant needs checked out asap. This is a terrible place and VERY RUDE OWNER! read more

Ordered two meat "combo" which turned out to be two "slider" sized sandwiches that came with two sides.... i should of ordered the same side for both because together they would of made 1 decent portion. Not sure what the "chili" was made of.... the brisket was very greasy. Terribly overpriced. read more

Nothing disappointing here at all! Amazing bbq meats and sides out of this world! Good prices and nice atmosphere! We'll be back! read more

BackYard Grill - $9 lunch - Barbeque Near Me - Sioux Falls, South Dakota

Service was great. Checked on by multiple individuals, including the management. Food was brought out promptly and with little variation from the description on the menu. Now for the reason it only obtained three was because the food wasn't good. The corn bread, not made with corn! And the BBQ was small in portion. read more

I was going to eat at the Backyard Grill food truck parked at Ace Hardware at 12th and Kiwanis. I was on my bike and going to grab a quick lunch without going to a drive up window. I haven't ate there before so I wanted to try it. The only problem was the guy in the truck was too busy texting on his phone to wait on me. I stood there for about 30 to 40 seconds, long enough to realize he was not interested in doing business. So I went down the block to Hy vee burger shack and grabbed a burger, it was surprisingly good for $3. Saved myself $6 plus tax for the brisket sandwich. I learned something that day but I am willing to give second and maybe third chance's before I comment on the food. Reviews don't look that great but I still want to try it. read more

Family dinner and we got two platters so we could try it all - ribs, chicken, pork and beef. They were all good - moist and Smokey. The aides of beans should not be missed and the skin in fries were good too. We will definitely be back! read more

Group of 8 All liked their meal. I had ribs , tender and delicious. Generous serving

Probably one star to many. I was there on a Monday, the owner manager was the only One working. He was doing fine w Service, but it four more people walked in he would be under water. I had the brisket, and as a serious smoker my self I found it chewy and blah. I also had the ribs and they were way over cooked, mushy ribs are not my favorite.: He made some yummy tots and slaw. read more

Great Barbecue and Smoked Chicken. I highly recommend this locally owned restaurant. The food is excellent and the cost is decent for the quantity. read more

Pretty sure my wife and I got food poisoning from this location on 9/19/19. The culprit - Beef Brisket.

Atmosphere is nice. Simple menu. I didn't appreciate my service when I wanted to get an ice cream order from their side menu. The server said he CAN do half flavors though they usually don't. So I agreed with it for two flavors, my amounts received were much smaller than my peers that I came with who had one flavored ice cream. I had half the amount total in a small Dixie Cup size. The server was going on and on how he usually doesn't do this, then gives me a very little amount for the cost I paid for and made feel really awful for requesting two flavors. He continues to keep telling me it's ok, when I was not ok. I was really upset with that service. Next time, just say you can't do two flavors- just give the amount like everyone else had paid for. read more

My wife and I had this delivered and we're extremely disappointed. I ordered a pound of brisket and literally had to use a strainer to remove all of the grease. The meat was sitting in a 1/4 inch of grease. I'm also confused as to why they shred the brisket rather than slice it? My wife had the cheesy hash browns for one side and they were soggy with little taste. We will not eat here again. read more

First time coming here! Employee showed us the popular things to get plus deals of the day! Ribs and pulled pork were delicious!! Baked beans and cheesy hash browns were the bomb! Highly recommend them! read more

Oh. My. God. Ten million times better than the local competitor chain that rhymes with Namous Raves. The ribs just fall off the bone. This is how ribs are done people. Best ribs I have ever had and I lived in Texas for 12 years. Go get some. read more

Ribs not bad but steamed too long and minimal smoke ring. Texas chili is spicy hot and gooey. Brisket is good. Coleslaw is good, with minimal moisture and cabbage was still fresh and crunchy. read more

Staff was very friendly explaining how to order as we had never been here before. Pulled pork, wings and fries were all pretty good. I would recommend at least adding a couple ribs for sides if not getting them for your whole meal because they were literally falling off the bone with great smoky flavor and good rub seasoning. I think they are probably up there with the best ribs I've ever had! All in all, we'd definitely come back if we were craving BBQ! read more
