The chocolate cake was so moist and delicious. I was surprised at how good it tasted. The chocolate chip cookies were also very fresh and good. My husband had the brisket sandwich and ate every bite. I just had dessert. The service was quick and friendly. Order at the counter and then pick up your tray a minute later. We will be back. read more

Stopped here for dinner tonight. Had the pulled pork sandwich with hush puppies and a drink. The pork was hot and tender. It wasn't fatty either. The hush puppies were fresh and hot. The restaurant was clean and stay were friendly. I always get their unsweetened tea and mix it with their lemonade. So good. We haven't been here in awhile so it was nice that the meal was so good. read more

I've been here about five times now when I'm in town visiting. This was by far the best visit. The pulled pork was perfect. Some of the best I've had. The flavor and the tenderness were our own point. The pulled chicken sandwich that my friend had I had a little bit of and the chicken was so moist. All of the sides were delicious as well. The atmosphere is what you would expect in a barbecue joint. I did have more fat than you should have on a sandwich, but they took care of it and gave me a little more extra pork to add to it. read more

This place still has consistently wonderful service! Skylar and Jason have been great on several occasions along with all the other employees. The food... the last few times I've had the brisket it has been very tender and full of flavor! This actually surprised me (see my previous review) and that's what made me order it four times in a row even though I normally like to switch it up. I tried the pastrami and it was pretty decent. It was thick cut and tender. Not as salty as I anticipated. I prefer the more fatty cuts but you can ask for lean or full cut. The pulled pork has been less dry than it used to be and I've ordered the Lolo's pulled pork a handful of times because of it. The slaw and swine wine are a good combo in my opinion. Half chicken is still good and even though it seems smaller lately it is still filling, plus I love Texas toast! My current favorite sides are now the corn pudding, the collard greens, and the mac. The green beans are also flavorful. I haven't had the ribs, turkey, sausage, or pulled chicken in a long time so I can't speak on those. All in all, I'm still very happy with this location. read more

First time eating in the restaurant. When we got inside, we were honestly lost! We didn't know if someone was going to seat us, or if we order at the counter. We waited about 5 mins confused, then I approached an employee. They then told us we have to order off the screen above. We asked if they had menus, they said no. We didnt feel welcomed at all. So we ordered our food, sat down and waited. Once we got our food, we were not satisfied with everything. Paying over 70$ for our food, I expected it to be Hot and juicy. My brisket was cold, I had to dip it in my beans (which were super good) to get it atleast warm. The collards were not done at all, so I switched out sides. All in all it was an ok experience, but not feeling welcomed in someone's establishment sucks. read more

Casual country-western ambiance-loud country music and hearty bbq at a hearty price. Multiple sauces -original was too hot for me but there are 4 other choices. There are some cute old-time touches - (ex: as you enter there are nehi bottled drinks. ) Food 4/5 taste 5/5 portions Tried ribs and brisket, cornbread, Mac-n cheese, and chocolate cake. Facility -3/5 tables sticky , floor messy, bathrooms need updating and better cleaning -difficult to keep old concrete floor from smelling bad Outdoor seating available Service -5/5 fast, pleasant Location -near exit of I-71, near other restaurants and businesses, near EV chargers walking distance . read more

This restaurant is great for BBQ would recommend to anyone that enjoys barbecue because of you don't want to get they make it easy brisket best thing there Texas toast awesome and they have a variety of different barbecue sauces like sweet, hot,or normal. The people that serve are great they yell your name loud and clear to make sure they know your order. Not only that but if you look all around you there is wood on the side and music that makes it feel so much like a barbecue place. Would recommend this place to anyone who likes BBQ read more

First time using "Curbside Service" but there were no instructions on what to do when you arrived other than providing color of car and type. When arrived did not see people sitting in cars at curbside nor anyone bringing food to cars. Not knowing what to do waited for 5 mins. If the service was not available the system should have alerted when order was placed. Went inside and food was sitting on counter. Ribs were tasty but needed more cooking time to be more tender and not have to be ripped off the bone. Green beans are usually good but didn't have a good taste; potato salad and banana pudding were very good. Briskets have always been good and will stick with that for any future orders. Ordering at register had several people backed up and several people in line to pick up orders. No sign of a manager or those matters would have been addressed, I would hope. read more

This Friday night we went to the grove city, (city bbq.) the place was a little busy, we waited in line like 10 minutes, cause they only had one register open. I order the sausage sandwich that comes with 2x sausages that is topped with slaw , and I ordered a order of fries, my wife ordered pulled pork and hush puppies. The food took like 15-20 minutes since the staff was more worried about the carry out orders more than the customers dining in. Once the order was ready they shorted me the hush puppies, and the fries were under cooked and limp, so I told them I wanted them to recook them. It took another 5 minutes. My wife said her sandwich was barely warm. Not the best experience. read more

City Barbeque - Sausage sandwich and fries - Barbeque Near Me - Grove City, Ohio

The worse briskett ive ever ate. Both our sandwhiches were full of fat and I mean to say alot. It was like getting fastfood in a sat down restaurant. The baked beans were the best. We wont go back. read more

I know Ohio isn't exactly known for good barbecue, but I consistently see good reviews for City BBQ, so thought I'd give it a shot. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich, which should be a pretty decent test of a BBQ restaurant. The sandwich had a decent amount of meat on it, which was nice. However, it was very dry even after dumping all of the sauce they gave me on it. As for sides, I tried the Mac and Cheese and the fries, both were pretty average. Overall, will probably settle for the fact that the Grove City area doesn't have good BBQ and choose somewhere else next time. read more

Best brisket I've ever had anywhere!! Pricey but worth it. Corn pudding is amazing, the salad is always fresh and the baked beans.....YUM!!!! read more

Ordered dinner for my family from GC City BBQ tonight, so disappointing. The boys opted for ribs but I got my usual, the pulled pork sandwich. As you can see, I couldn't even eat half off it. It had a large piece of fat that was charred on one side, and most of what was left was cooked so long it was hard & dry. Why would anyone put this on a sandwich, poor quality/service. Thinking I'll no longer order from them, scared of what what I might get. Feel like tonight's dinner was a total waste of money. Really bummed, GC needs some good places to eat. read more

Ate at City BBQ tonight. Service was good, food marginal, more like fast food barbecue than the real thing. The pulled pork was dry, tasteless, and I could not detect any smoke flavor at all. Sausage was passable at best. My wife got the mac and cheese and it was a gluey, congealed mass. She passed on it. Good hush puppies, though. Hard to believe they have so many locations, but you can't account for taste. read more

If you're trying to turn your money into grease, look no further! This place will hook you up with a sopping wet canola sandwhich.

Had to throw my food in the trash cause it was disgusting and they gave me a $10 credit but I spent almost $50

Always great food and service. City Barbeque is one of our favorite places to get a hearty and delicious meal.

Always an enjoyable trip to city barbecue. One of our favorites in a must stop over in the Eastgate area

Everything thing was very tasty and the house bbq sauce was delicious oh yeah the fried ribs are so yummy

Supporting the locals that support the medical staff. Ordered the pulled pork sandwich, baked beans, corn pudding and potato salad. Ordering during these times was super easy. You use a link they send you of when you're on your way and when you arrive. Instantly a person pops out with your order. Pulled pork was delicious, moist and the right amount of Smokey flavor. The beans had chunks of brisket mixed in. Corn pudding had a good amount of corn in it, some of the best out there. Potato salad is off the chart, made with mayonnaise, fresh vegetables. If you're are ordering for the first time, download their app for a $5 discount. The best thing though is all the community based support they give. Off the chart!!! read more

What happened to your fries? Some may like them, but not me. Pretty awful change - will not be coming back.

stopped in at the Grove City location today to get a family pack to go . Ordered smoked Turkey , baked beans & mac cheese . The manager came out to tell me they were temporary out of Turkey , offered me the brisket at no extra charge and threw in a free dessert. All the food was excellent and the staff were all very friendly. thanks ! we will be back. read more

Deeeeelicious!! Got a sampler and a andwich. Every was so flavorful, fresh and tasty! Great portions and friendly service. We went because we had a gift card. But we definitely were sold and will be back for more! read more

Have been here a few time and visited on Sunday at noon. This visit was fantastic. I got pulled chicken and the bun was over flowing with chicken, yummy. Wife ordered the brisket and she said it was awesome. I noticed condiments were back out for customers to help themselves. What a joy back to normal. This is a must try place. Fries hot and delicious ! read more

While waiting for my carry out order, a young man called my name. Where as my order was presented to dine in, no problem the young man was going to put lids on my items. This is when the older gentleman, manager I presume started to belittle the young man. Shouting "why did you over serve"? To which the young man had no reply I could tell he was a newer employee. I just replied, he was being generous to which the manager took no humor at all. Employers wonder why they have trouble finding employees I witnessed yesterday exactly why. the daytime manager at the Grove City city barbecue should be ashamed of his behavior. read more

Easily a 4.7 out of 5. Such a great selection of food and lots of BBQ sauce to choose from. I usually get their pork sandwiches, but their chicken is great, too. I love their fries and dipping that in the hot BBQ sauce. I liked their cornbread, but I feel it was overcooked when I got it. It was so dry. I will give it another try next time. read more

I ordered a two meat platter, ribs and brisket plus cole slaw and potato salad sides. The ribs lacked a smoke taste although they appeared well barbecued and the bones were hard. They were in the heat too long. The brisket looked good on the counter before being cut, a nice char on top. It was not dry, but it had no taste and certainly no smoke taste at all. The potato salad was good, and the cole slaw was ok, but not great. The people running this place should take trip up the road to Kansas City and try a few BBQ places there to get an idea of what good BBQ should taste like. read more

Favorite for brisket. Love the sandwich or the plate. Always great. Quick and convenient

First off BBQ isn't my favorite. However if I do want some, I go here. The meat is tender and the spicy sauce is a go to! The corn bread pudding, is my favorite. Great BBQ! read more

What is going on here? Used to be good, going downhill. Ordered pick up and they shut off their system and had to go in. Fine, but with small kids it was a pain. They forgot items and after getting the kids all buckled again realized we had to go back in. Ordered fries and it looked like half of them had been eaten. Food was mediocre. Service was less than average. read more

We have eaten at City BBQ for years. The last few years we have ordered takeout. Many times this establishment has messed up our orders and we have given them many chances to get it right. Not anymore. We will not be eating at the Grove City City BBQ. The other night I checked the order to make sure that all items ordered were in the sack. Didnt think to actually OPEN up the 2 links. (I shouldnt have to) and when got home the two links were charred and should not have been let out of the restaurant. Plus they were missing peppers and onions which I ordered. We paid $55 for a really crappy meal. I called to complain and was told I would have a $15 coupon which hasnt ever shown up. You have lost a customer and I am not sure that I would recommend to others. read more

Lord, don't deprive me of my favorite BBQ food! That is some good soul food! You have the beans, brisket, turkey and all the good fixin's here. Let's say I have to sacrifice much when I come here. That's my weight, because I'm on Weight Watchers and count all my meals. I let myself enjoy on days where I've done really well for the week and need a nice day to just treat myself to my own favorite comfort food. In Ohio that is BBQ food! In another state it will be another food! I came here with friends and of course took my time eating and just enjoying my meal. Learned on my new diet plan to stop eating quickly and just enjoy the food in front of me weather it's a healthy dish or not. So I really just took time to enjoy all the flavors from everything I'd ordered with the beef brisket sandwich which was smoked to perfection. To the beans and mac and cheese. Finally, to top it off I shared a peach cobbler with my husband. Letting him eat half and I ate the other half. As much as it broke all my smart points and calorie intake for the day, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal because I realized the importance of pacing myself while eating and just enjoying the food, conversation and atmosphere. If your on a diet plan, I don't recommend eating here unless your on a cheat day like me. Although if your not on a diet plan, go right ahead and enjoy the food and atmosphere folks! read more

Great food, prices are reasonable for what you get... beats all other fast food and restaurants in this category! Excellent pulled chicken, brisket and ribs!! Yummy read more

Consistent food. Service is hot or miss. Definitely better barbecue in the city, but you know what you're getting and we visit fairly often.

Totally bad experience with a delivery order placed at the store. The order was close to $600, to be delivered. You would assume when they say catering and delivery they would have delivery, they use DoorDash. Received a message my order was canceled or modified. Called the store, not much help. Told me I would have to come to the store, pick up the order and pay, although I had paid in advance my card was declined-it wasn't I was double charged. I did receive charge reversal on the original card, and they did give me a 10% discount for the hassle. DoorDash called me after I picked up the order and asked me to cancel the order on line. When it was all set up the two pans of peach cobbler were seriously burned. I couldn't believe they would actually sent them out. I would attach picture if I knew how. read more

Can't say I don't love everything about city bbq, the brisket, the potato salad, the banana pudding. It's alllll good. My daughters love the hush puppies and chicken tenders. The only problem is the curbside pickup which often cause us order issues. Otherwise, it's so delicious. read more
