    Two Meats, Two Sides Hush Puppies
    Dee C.

    I've passed this place a couple times and decided to place a to go order tonight. The prices are wonderful and the amount of food for the money is great. The young lady who brought me my order was wonderful and full of smiles. I would've gave 4 stars but I'm not a fan of sweet bbq and the triple cue was swimming in sweet sauce . Ribs were meaty and delicious and I fit the lemonade and it was just perfect, not too sweet but not tart either. Will definitely be giving them another visit soon

    The adult chicken fingers

    My husband ordered a half pound of pastrami, specifically asked for it to be cut lean and the order of 4 "adult" chicken fingers. Well, the pastrami was very fatty and had to be taken back to be cut lean and the chicken fingers are each the size of my pinkie. Not adult size. And $10 for four. What a rip off! The man there said "it comes that way" about the pastrami. Well, them do not state on the menu lean if you do not train your employees how to do so. Slack on service.

    If I could put zero stars, I would. I never been to city BBQ to dine, but I did order takeout. I ordered a loaded, baked potato with barbecue pulled pork and all the toppings. Once I opened the bag, there's sauces and everything for the barbecue, but absolutely nothing else except a half a baked potato. No barbecue. No toppings, nothing. I paid $22 for a quarter of what I ordered. I hope this isn't what other people have to put up with because this is unacceptable! I will not be ordering from them again. It's a shame I didn't get a chance to try their barbecue, but it's not worth the money. They just lost a possible new customer.

    Pulled pork sandwich and hush puppies. Delicious!

    Pulled pork sandwich and hush puppies. I paired the sandwich with the sweet city sauce. It was excellent! I cleaned the plate! Hush puppies were hot and fresh and omg they were good! I got recommended this place from an apartment tour guide. Wow it was a good recommendation! Will be back even if I have to make a drive to have it! Staff is very friendly. Music is classic blues. Clean and well maintained.

As a…read morebusiness their specialty is made to order charcuterie boards and they boast a large selection of locally sourced cheeses and meats. Inside however they also have a market featuring lots of local products, and a sit down cafe serving up salads and toasted sandwiches. I came in here on a quiet Sunday afternoon and we elected to sit outside in their walled in patio area. It was a pleasant place to sit and our service was prompt and friendly. For my sandwich I chose the turkey chipotle bacon without the tomatoes. The sandwich tasted great and the bread was toasted nicely. If I have one complaint it's that for $14.00 I think the sandwich could have been a bit bigger, or maybe I was just too hungry because I scarfed it down in an instant! Still the chips that accompanied it were a good snack and I enjoyed my meal. This is definitely a good spot to grab a lunch, I wish I had more time and I would have enjoyed the opportunity to browse their market. Matthews has a lot of great locally owned spots and this is for sure one of them.

I grew up eating Mexican food and have a thing for finding best flavor and quality for food. I knew I wanted to try a bbq place hear as I've heard such great things and let me tell you I was absolutely blown away! Lately things have been so pricey and feel like you get hidden fees or 20% of service on top of tip and a whole bunch of weird extra charges so obviously going out to eat has been more challenging as you pay more but get less. This place was the absolute opposite of that! We came here twice before we had to fly out to Minnesota. First time we tried the tray of meats and boy was that special. First of the brisket was delicious! But our server recommended the turkey and that was the juiciest most flavorful turkey I've ever had in my life! The sides were amazing and something I never had before was a slaw that had acidity with vinegar and it paired so well. I ordered a Twinkie for the first time and let me tell you I won't see a jalapeño the same again. In Mexican food we have them a lot but never this way and now I'm determined to try to make the more. At the end of our meal our server asked if we wanted dessert and guess wha it was ABSOLUTELY COMPLIMENTARY!! WHATTT?!? And not just like a scoop of ice cream different options of COBBLLERRRR!!! We did not see that coming and it was absolutely delicious! The second time we came I tried the fried okra and that was my first time it blew me away! I also had the potatoe that was loaded and wowowowowo so much flavor and deliciousness. Give it was our last time I got the Twinkie again and it did not disappoint! I wish this place success and that they continue to expand and maybe pray they come to MN. The place is clean and they have a lot of seating and food was incredible.
