St. Louis BBQ strikes again. This place was not good, from a food standpoint at least,…read more I walked in just before noon and there was no line. Red flag? You order at the counter, which was easy, and then pay at the end of the line. The cashier was super helpful and offered recommendations on sauces and offered pickles or jalapeños for my To Go order. I ordered the Big Muddy sandwich which came with brisket, sausage, lettuce and pickles. It was also supposed to have horseradish and bbq sauce, but it did not. Maybe because it was To Go? The brisket was sliced right in front of me, but it was bad. It looked tender, but it was supper fatty and could handle be chewed. I spit most of it out. The problem was probably a bad cut of meat and not the smoking, but they still served it to me. The sausage was great, but only had a couple of little slices. I added some of the sweet sauce which was very good. I chose the beans for my side. Fine, but nothing special. A little dry, so I added sauce to help it go down. Then they had some local soda option, so I passed on an overpriced drink. It looks like there are more local options in the area, I would try somewhere else if ever back in this area.

Once again amazing BBQ. They recently received the award for…read morebest BBQ in St Charles and it's totally deserved. Since I'm from Texas my go to is brisket. Moist and delicious. Also got smoked Chicken which is done to perfection. If you've never been and just want a sandwich I absolutely recommend the Hillbilly Philly!

Came in last week with high hopes after hearing great things. Got the platter with pulled pork,…read moreseasoned fries, and slaw. If you're doing BBQ, the basics should be solid. Pulled pork: 3.5/5 - decent but not amazing. Seasoned fries: 2/5 - underwhelming. Slaw: 0/5 - tasted old, couldn't eat it. My take: I love BBQ and wanted to love this place. The pork was fine, but slaw tasting old is a real issue. Sides need to be fresh, and that one detail makes me question the kitchen's consistency. Maybe it was an off night. I'll probably give it one more shot during lunch when turnover is higher. If it's still off, there are too many good BBQ spots around St. Charles to settle.

Heavy Smoke is probably the best BBQ I've had in the STL area. They sell out of their meats by the…read moreevening time, so I'd actually recommend coming for lunch if possible. The restaurant is pretty spacious with plenty of seating. Food also comes out pretty quickly after ordering at the counter. The back wall of the restaraunt is lined with dozens of trophies and various awards received over the years - a true testament to how great this place is. My husband and I got the three meat plate and the brisket egg rolls. The standout item here was definitely the burnt ends. These aren't your typical burnt ends - these are super tender and melt in your mouth. The brisket egg rolls are unique and packed with flavor as well. The BBQ here pairs well with all the different sauces that are available. We are excited to bring out of towners here!

FALL OF THE BONE RIBS!!!! do i need to say anything else?…read more this place is hands down the best meat i've had! the only thing i think they need to work on is the size of the sides. their "large" is the size of a small mac at chick fil a. and cost $4.50 if they can change the sizing of the sizes this would be a 5 star place for sure!

Top notch, casual dining with fantastic food! Our choices this visit were the boudin balls…read morestarter, Cuban sandwich with smoked baked beans and the special of the day which was a smoked jalapeño sausage, shrimp and 2 sides. Sides selected fried okra and fries. We shared all the items and I have to say they were all so delicious! The smoked jalapeño sausage was extremely flavorful with just the right amount of heat and Smokey flavor! The smoked beans are some of the best I have had with bits of smoked meat throughout and a deep smoke flavor. Highlights: Boudin balls: crispy outside with soft flavorful centers. Came with a great dipping ranch sauce. Cuban sandwich: perfectly smoked pork and the bread was amazing! Also enjoyed the peach cobbler! Yum... Our waiter was so great with details and descriptions of the special of the day and so attentive. Always a great stop.

Everything I've tried here has been delicious! Their smoked pulled chicken is one of my go-to…read moresandwiches, and their potato salad is the only one I'll eat. I seriously don't like potato salad but per the recommendation of the bartender, I tried it one evening and it's delicious. They occasionally have burnt ends which I hear are also amazing. If you go, pop in downstairs for a drink with the best bartenders in a divey ambiance. The patio is serene with the creek running by and lots of tree cover. Honestly one of my favorite places in St Charles!

Went with some friends at prime dinnertime on a friday. Lots of laughs, smiles, memories…read more I was surprised it was empty, seemed strange. The food? Fine. I mean it's bbq. I enjoyed their turkey melt. It was simple. Not over complicated. Not overly flavorful either. It wasn't bad, but it didn't send my taste buds into a chasm of mesquite as i had hoped. The service was good. But, not in a well manicured way. More of a this is very informal dining and holler if ya need me way. Very polite, unpolished, and taken care of. But, it didn't feel like hospitality in the formal sense you imagine when thinking of a sit down dinner. I hope that doesn't come off as a knock or jest. I intend it to be perceived much more as ambivalent. Anyways, no rush to get back, but if my friends wanna go, ill oblige

Access was only by an exterior set of stairs. There was an elevator, but it was out of service. If…read moremy wife had been with me, we wouldn't have even gone inside. The staff were friendly and food delivery was reasonably quick. The burnt ends did not "melt" in my mouth like a proper burnt end should. They were fibrous and took a bit of chewing. They were also too sweet, so the meat's natural flavor was masked. The sausage was just OK, nothing special to look forward to. The potato salad was overly mustard based and unenjoyable. Two bites were all I could stand. The baked beans with pulled pork were very good. They could have better if they were more savory and less sweet. If I hadn't just visited family in Austin, TX, perhaps I would've been more favorable to Hendricks. Instead, I had recent reminders of how far they fell short of even average Texas BBQ, let alone Terry Black's. I'm not planning on returning.

The potato salad was dry and pasty. The baked beans were much too spicy. Their service was very fast but it was a workarant. You had to order sit and they delivered it to you.

Taco Tuesday at BobaQue in New Town Saint Charles did NOT disappoint…read more The $2 tequila and $2 jerk chicken tacos were absolute FIRE. The tacos had this incredible balance of flavors, spicy TENDER chicken with jerk seasoning & sweet pineapple mixed in, and whatever else they put in there just made them insanely flavorful. The ambience is really cute, the place is SO clean, and it was great getting to see the owner Chris who is always so sweet. If you're in New Town Saint Charles MO and looking for a fun Taco Tuesday spot, this one is definitely worth checking out.

We stopped by after seeing so many great reviews and were excited to finally give this place a try…read more Unfortunately, we visited on Juneteenth, and it was incredibly busy. There was a long line, no available seating, and we eventually learned that some guests were bringing their own chairs. We were even asked if we had chairs in our car--which we didn't. Had we known the setup beforehand, we would have come prepared. It was a bit overwhelming and felt disorganized, so we ended up leaving without getting a seat or trying the food. That said, we ran into several friends who were there, and they looked like they were having a great time, so it's clear the food and atmosphere are worth checking out. We're chalking our experience up to the holiday crowd, possible short staffing, or simply unfortunate timing. We definitely plan to come back on a regular day because we're still looking forward to trying the food for ourselves.
