We visited Paducah for the Quilt Show, and my wife, a quilter, expressed a desire for barbecue…read more Following a recommendation from a local merchant, we went to Starnes BBQ. The restaurant was quite busy. We secured a table and ordered two sandwiches, an order of coleslaw, and shared an iced tea. My wife is particular about sauces; we both tasted a small amount, and found the sauce to be excessively hot, with the consistency of watered-down hot sauce and lacking in traditional barbecue flavor. While the locals seemed to enjoy it, we did not find it to our liking. Having sampled barbecue in various regions, from California to the Carolinas, we found this to be the worst sauce we've encountered. We did not use the sauce on our sandwiches. The meat was adequately cooked but lacked flavor. The coleslaw was very good, as was the iced tea. The service was excellent. The restaurant is quite small, as evidenced by the previous photos. If you are seeking authentic Southern barbecue, Starnes BBQ falls short of expectations.

Atmosphere - Retro dinner like place without the counter top. Lots of funny things on the walls. Food Drink - Coffee, just black. Breakfast - While in Metropolis you need to have something named after the star. I had the Superman. The Superman is the Loaded Haystack with two eggs and toast. The Loaded Haystack is hash brown, bacon, sausage, onions, green peppers, tomatoes and topped with ton of cheddar cheese. The haystack was loaded for sure, I was full after that. Service - What you needed. The waitress did everything front of the house. Future - Probably as I have another trip to the area soon.

Wow, what a difference a few days makes. I decided to give Bandanas another try but this time I…read moreordered online and got the ribs instead of the brisket & burnt ends. The ordering process was simple, the girls behind the counter were on it as I was greeted immediately and my order was ready when I got there. She made sure I had utensils, sauce and some wet naps. To be honest I didn't really even have to have the sauce for the ribs because they were so good they didn't need sauce. I used the sauce to dip my bread. The up charge on the Mac & Cheese is worth it and the fries were still good by the time I got them home.
