Brisket sandwich Collard greens
James C.

City BBQ has some of the best brisket you will ever have. I always end up getting the brisket sandwich with a side or two. This time around I got the brisket sandwich with collard greens. The brisket was cooked perfectly with still having a nice soft bark and amazing flavor. Service was amazing as the cashier was playful and having fun. Someone who truly enjoys talking with people and watch them struggle with all the great food options. Most City BBQ locations look similar however they stay true to the city they are located in. They go for the steel and wood look. Some locations have the smokers on the side and you can see and smell all the meat cooking. Most have local school team helmets and sport props. Many also do huge fundraising for the local schools or city. This location had a mix of sports jerseys and articles of past fundraising events.

City Sampler, pulled pork, Beef Briske, Texas toast, Mac & Cheese, Potato Salad, Banana Pudding

I love City Barbecue, let me tell you I am being dead serious when I say they have the best potato salad anywhere, it's SO GOOD! The pork and brisket were so nice and tender and had so much flavor. I'm a fan of the bushfire bbq sauce, it has a good kick to it. The banana pudding was so tasty! I came with a friend and she got the same thing and she was also raving about it. The service was amazing, the people who took my order were very nice, the wait time for the food was very good. And the place was very clean and seemed very organized. I like the overall vibe of the place, it is very modern and up to date. It very much matches the vibe of a bbq Restaraunt. If you haven't been to City Barbecue yet this is your sign to stop by, for sure!

LOVE this place!! So fresh and delicious! Very clean! We always come here for the great service!

Pulled pork and shredded bbq chicken
Ben J.

Stopped by City BBQ for lunch. Unfortunately, didn't see a lunch menu so I went with a combo pulled pork and bbq chicken, cole slaw and potato salad. The pulled pork was moist and tasted ok. The bbq chicken was dry and really lacked taste. I had to pour bbq sauce on it to eat it. Potato salad, cole slaw, and toast were good. I think the pulled pork would have been better between two slices of bread. I should have gotten ribs instead of the chicken. A lot of food for lunch. Would not try this combo again.

Pulled Chicken

Order food usually about once a week. Ordered kids pulled chicken sandwich. This is what I wound up with when I opened it. Seems pretty skimpy. The kid involved would rather have more sandwich rather that the free drink included

City BBQ Brisket!

Generally City BBQ has always provided great BBQ. Yesterday our order for my Wife's Birthday and Super Bowl.... We received the worst Brisket I've ever experienced from any BBQ Restaurant. The Brisket was unfit for human consumption. Started calling City BBQ yesterday, and ask them to send over a replacement, but could not get anyone to answer phone. I expect a complete refund of $280.00 dollars!

You can't go wrong with city bbq!

The food was as good as always with the exception of the fries. They switched from fresh cut to frozen & they don't even compare.

After soliciting…read moreproposals from 5-6 caterers, Creative Cuisine stood out for its responsiveness, competitive pricing, and menu options. Rhonda was always extremely quick to respond to questions, requests for menu changes, etc. She was also very patient. I'd never ordered catering an event before, and she spent quite a bit of time helping me find the right balance of menu items and services. On the day of the event, Creative Cuisine sent Sam, who was at the venue and ready to go well before guests started to arrive. She'd set up a very attractive display table for the food, complete with some decorative pieces to accent the buffet stations. She also worked with me throughout the evening, happy to accommodate any desired timing for having different courses ready. Our guests raved about the taste and quality of the food. If you're looking to cater an event around Columbus for a group of any size, I highly recommend Creative Cuisine Catering. Great food and service!

This review is for the catering aspect of Schmidt's and not their dine in facility…read more I planned my wedding at the Ohio Historical Society: Ohio Village, and if you use their facilities for a party, then you must pick a caterer off of their preferred list. At first, I scoffed at Schmidt's, and marked it off as a "sausage and kraut" house. I mean, who wants that kind of stuff at their wedding? Well, after a disappointing consultation with one of their other preferred caterers, I decided to give Schmidt's a shot after taking a look at what they offered on their website. I am so glad that we decided to go with Schmidt's! The contract procedure, and getting everything in order went well thanks to Arlene! The only real problem we had was with the linens being pricey, or not being available, and this was like... a week, or two before the wedding, but everything worked out, and we were told by OHS management that our reception was decorated nicer than any previous receptions they had. (Not sure if it was sincere, or not, but it was still nice to hear.) NOW, to the FOOD! We ordered basic cold cut sandwiches, traditional potato salad, a cheese and veggie tray, and some bahama mamas (their signature sausage.) Sadly, I couldn't partake of the bahama mamas due to me being worried of spilling red sauce on my wedding gown. The food was great, and was just what we wanted. It was nice and simple, and everyone left with a full stomach from our early wedding. So am I going to recommend Schmidt's catering? YES, YES, YEESSSS! They were so helpful on one of the most stressful things a bride has to deal with. They also made it work with our small budget for 50+ people. I will warn you, I had to deal with a grumpy fiancee about not having cream puffs instead of wedding cake. Choose wisely!

We used Schmidt's Catering (in particular I worked with Jennifer Hutchinson) for an Oktoberfest…read moreOpen House at our work facility. They came in and made my job SO easy. They brought in decorations for our tent and tables to give it a festive feel and set everything up for us. Everyone RAVED about the food (we actually had a better turn out because we advertised Schmidt's was catering!). There was more than enough food to meet our needs - especially the mini cream puffs! (YUM!) They provided not only the food, but the beer as well - which also received rave reviews! The staff quietly worked in the background to make sure the food was hot and available, as well as cleaning up behind our people as they were socializing. Jennifer was such a pleasure to work with that I felt as though I had made a new friend by the time they left. There is absolutely no question that we will use them when we have our next event!
