Tik tok brought me here! This food had my hotel room smelling like some good ol down home soul food. The spot is small and they only allow three customers inside at a time for safety reasons. Everything was delicious! I got the 10 pcs drumettes in garlic parm sauce. Fried perfectly, very tastefully seasoned and not salty. The Mac n cheese was delish as well as the yams, which weren't over seasoned with nutmeg and cinnamon. I'm not a lemon pepper fan but those wings were divine and right on time! I'm definitely going back before I head back upstate and update with pics. The hospitality was warm welcoming and helpful. The BEST food is always in the hoods IYKYK. read more

Food was delicious! Had the pig feet with cabbage and yams. Had enough for 3 servings

The food was good. It felt like they played it safe. It was seasoned just enough to give it flavor but it could have used just a pinch more. But at the same time, I appreciated it this way instead of having it overly seasoned or not seasoned at all. It was a bit of a wait, maybe 20 minutes, so by the time I got my food I started digging in before snapping a pic, lololol! My faves were the Mac n cheese and cornbread. Add a veggie plate option to the menu would give it balance. If they have veggie / meatless options, pardon me for overlooking it. I chat with a few regulars who swear by the cabbage and tell me they eat here weekly. I'm looking forward to my next visit to try more options. This is take out only. It's recommended to call in to place your order. Check out their Facebook page bc yelp doesn't have the correct prices or as many pictures of the food. read more

Big Bone Take Out - Fried Chicken 8Pc dinner - Soul Food Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

I saw this place on Uber eats and decided to go there because I had never heard of it. The menu looked great and the prices were even better. We ordered the pig feet with 3 sides (rice, macaroni and cheese and collards) , fried chicken with three sides (double macaroni and cheese and Lima beans), extra corn bread, lemon pepper wings with fries, pound cake and lemonade. The customer service was great. The lady taking orders was very friendly and helpful. All of the food was hot and fresh. Everything was seasoned well. The pound cake was okay. The lemonade was really good. I will definitely be back. I would recommend ordering the fried chicken macaroni and cheese and cornbread. I felt like these were the best items out of everything we ordered. Although the menu said 8 pieces of chicken there was only 5 whole wings (not sure if 8 was counted as wingettes or whole wings) read more

Decided to visit big bones before starting a diet because I really want some amazing soul food and based upon previous reviews I've heard that the food was amazing. Parking at the establishment is decent, but this is not the place with all the bells and whistles. it's literally standing room for three people to order their food and then waiting in your car while it's prepared. customer service at establishment was decent and the lady at the front make sure to get all the details for your food. I got the turkey dinner with white rice, cheese and yams. Everything was a 10 out except the 10 mac & cheese. I give that 8 out of 10. The yams and the turkey wings or some of the best I have ever had so good and smelt so amazing that I forgot to take a photo that was my first time visiting big bone, but I assure it will not be my last this is really your soul cooking, thank you it was very nostalgic to me and took me back to my grandmother's kitchen! read more

10/10 I am a foodie & this is hands down the best soul food. customer service was exceptional, it was a young man with so much manners and patience. the cornbread was even food I ate my entire plate. they definitely got a new customer read more

My first time never heard of this restaurant but thanks to Uber eats there you are. I had the pork chop smothered in gravy with cabbage macaroni and cheese and rice and when I tell you that it was delicious and I will be back I promise you that I will continue to order from them prices are fabulous and the food was great I'm just mad that they're closed tonight because I was on the menu trying to order again I will see you tomorrow read more

This place is one of the few remaining places here in Columbia where you can get down home soul food that tastes as good as grandma used to make.Delicious and comforting. They have a few menu items like pigs feet that are hard to find in a restaurant. The service is friendly. It's takeout only. read more

This food was so delicious and seasoned just right! They are very heavy handed. I had enough left to make a second meal. I will be returning very soon!! Give Big Bone a try! You won't be disappointed! read more

Big Bone Take Out - Mac and cheese, pig feet, collards, and yellow rice - Soul Food Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Food is great but please check your ticket. BE VERY CAREFUL!!!! We found out that the young man who charged us for our $8 meal, generously added a $50 tip to our check... we had no clue until we checked the bank... This is not ok!!! read more

The only reason they don't 5 stars is because I didn't have any sides. Their wings though.... WHEW! Stopped by there after getting my mother food and hearing her say how good the food was. Wasn't hungry but wanted protein so I got wings. Seasoned perfectly and nice and warm. Very filling. Now onto the sides which looked tasty too. Can't wait. read more

Great food would highly recommend if you are looking for a southern meat and three. Lots of food too so you won't leave hungry. Will return

The food tasted GREAT! We had the stewed pig feet, and I must say it was very tender and tasty. There was no hair on the pig feet. We also had the baked turkey wings and it was outstanding. The sides were just as good (collard greens, potato salad, lima beans Black Eyed Peas, mac & cheese, and cabbage.). Really enjoyed the sweet potato pie too. We will be going back there. read more

Been coming here for along time. Nice staff Mrs. Shelia is a sweetheart. Food is amazing and everything fried is fried fresh small wait time but it totally worth it every fresh and seasoned good. read more

I ordered Turkey wing with rice and gravy, macaroni, and lima beans. Spectacular! Thoroughly enjoyed the food. So much flavor and the meat fell off the bones. Like previous reviewers, I don't know why this place isn't talked about more! read more

So I drove from Atlanta Georgia early Friday morning to take my guy to Myrtle Beach this would be our first time so it was perfect to take a road trip do some sightseeing and eat some good food. We had just about 2 hours left before our destination when we stopped at a McDonald's to use the bathroom and possibly get something to eat. Well before we could order anything a couple of workers and a supervisor was talking about soul food and my guy came out just in time to hear the conversation so we like what's the name and where is located Big Bones and it was 10 minutes from where we were at let's go. We get there and it didn't look busy but it was well worth the wait. Ms. Cupcake if that's her real name reminded me so much of a friend of mines in Georgia she was just as sweet and funny and told us after we eat we gonna need a nap I'm excited because I love food and I love to eat good food so it is only right that I write this review and post my pics. I ordered smothered turkey wing with rice and gravy with Mac'n'cheese and greens my guy got two smothered pork chops yams and mac'n'cheese the cornbread yup I ate my whole slice of cornbread food was freshly prepared and cooked to order and my mouth is watering just thinking about it. If anyone ever takes a road trip to South Carolina please check out Big Bone's in Columbia South Carolina trust me you won't be disappointed super shocked no one is writing reviews about this place. If that was a restaurant they would be jamming all day but it's takeout only but when I say we sat in that parking lot stuffing our faces we had to force ourselves to close the top to the food so we could continue our trip but I wasn't going to let this spot not get its recognition for some good ole soul food and southern hospitality and great customer service thanks to the McDonald's workers for the recommendation I'll be back my next trip to South Carolina read more

I'm mad I lost my card I had one more dinner to buy and I had a free meal coming it's a must try if u haven't they food is the best

I have been to Columbia 7 times this year...this place came highly recommended. I'm giving it 1 because it is never open. I went today 8/4/23, and a sign posted saying they would be closed until 8/9. But if you call the voice mail never said that...so I drove 45 minutes to find the green sign on the door. I removed them from my list of places to patronize my people. read more

Loved the food. I had the smothered pork chop, collards, cabbage, cornbread dressing and red velvet cake. All were very tasty and not to much salt or too much grease. The pork chop wasn't dry and the seasoning in the veggies was to perfection. I had never had stuffing with boiled egg in it but it worked! I would that they had a place to dine in, but the service was great. By observing the owner and the cashiers with their customers I could see the genuine joy they had for their customers and the food they served. If you want a home-cooked meal without the hassle, Big Bone Takeout is the place to go. read more

Food was amazing! Speed of service was at an acceptable time. Took about 15 mins for 3 plates! Customer service was really good as well.

I had smothered pork chops, Mac and cheese,cabbage and sweet potatoes. Came with corn bread which was the best part of the meal. The Mac and cheese was good but the cabbage was not to my liking. Why put carrots in? Smothered pork chops no to my liking,the gravy not so good. I will go again and order something different. read more

I absolutely love this place! I am watching the clock right now waiting for Big Bone Take Out" to open. It is the most delicious, comfort food ever! Additionally, the service by this Mom/Pop & Kids establishment is warm, considerate, and detailed. They go out of their way to be kind... which is rare. It is small, and prepare to wait---yet, I'm here for it every single chance I get. I love this place, for the most inconspicuous reasons. You have to experience it; taste the love that goes into the preparation, experience the convivial demeanor and effort that you feel. You forget that it's tiny, you forget about the wait... because it's worth it. It's so sweet and yummy at Big Bone Take Out. Get you some! read more

Really good service with rural down south menu items like corn bread, yams, turkey necks, pig feet, pie, and cake. The veggies are good along. Plus there are general items like hotdogs and wing baskets. read more

I had passed by this little spot NUMEROUS times and always thought I need to go check it out.. My daughter and I finally stopped on our way out of town a few weeks ago and they are now the ONLY take out food I eat! The owner is as sweet as can be and the food is exceptional. No it doesn't look like much outside, but looks are truly deceiving when it comes to this place. EVERYTHING I've eaten from there has been so on point.. read more
