    Meat plate with brisket, mac & cheese, and cornbread.
    Nick M.

    Solid spot, agree with other reviews that this is very much a cross of a dive bar and a barbecue joint. We were here on a Wednesday night, so it was pretty easy to get a spot at the bar. They did have music trivia that night too. In terms of the food itself, it came out super quickly, and the brisket was delicious. It was cooked perfectly and melted in my mouth. The cornbread was good too, but I did not feel the mac & cheese with anything special. Next time I would probably just get two side sides of cornbread or a different side. That being said, I'm here for the brisket and it was amazing like I said. Next time I'd probably get two pieces. Our server was actually the owner, and he was very helpful and attentive. Overall, great time here, and would recommend anyone wanting a good meal without having to wait forever.

    2 Meats plate with pulled pork, jalapeño cheese, sausage, cowboy, baked beans, and corn spoon bread.

    Overall, decent place with a lot of potential. I enjoyed the beans, although they seemed a little undercooked. Cornbread was okay; loved the density of it but personally would have liked honey for it. BBQ was good. The meat was okay. I didn't like that The sausage seemed old or like it's been sitting for a while. Otherwise not bad.

    This has been a place I've been wanting to try. The food was incredible. I started with Brisket with smoked sausage corn bread and greens. Everything was seasoned perfectly. We also tried the brisket sandwich which was pilled high with greens and corn bread. The corn bread was a huge hit, so I took some home for later. As we were here for a bit so lastly the Brisket quesadilla. This was also so good with topping on the side. Great atmosphere, and on Sunday as we were leaving bingo was getting ready to start. Stop in and enjoy a good meal.

    Another good spot in our neighborhood! We love everything we order and will come back again. Food came pretty quick and their banana pudding was also good. If our food was warmer it would be great.

    Kyle & Dan were hustling on this FB Saturday afternoon. Kyle so kindly put the Cubs game on for me. Sadly the Brewers are winning I had the loaded corn cake and a side of Mac & cheese with leftovers for tomorrow Heather has always been outstanding as a bartender and server here at Hank's BBQ in Clintonville.

    Brisket, pulled pork

    I came here on a busy Friday night but was seated fairly quickly at the bar. The ambiance was what you'd expect from a BBQ joint so no disappointments there. The bartender that served us was very friendly and made small talk with us here and there. I definitely enjoyed the service. The food had some goods and not so goods. When you get Texas BBQ, you have to get the brisket, which I thought they did a pretty good job. It had a nice crust, seasoned well, tender, and nicely marbled. Of course, I asked for the point because that's the marbled part of the brisket. I also had the corn bread and collared greens which were both solid. Now onto the not so good parts...The pulled pork was under seasoned and overly oily and the ribs were a bit dry. Maybe some down sides going at the end of the day. I did end the meal with a banana cream pudding which was delicious! Overall, this place was pretty good. I wouldn't mind coming back sometime.

    This was a great (quick!) option near OSU. Delightful server. Good beer options. Reasonable prices. Casual atmosphere.

    Hank's continues to be the best BBQ in Ohio. The brisket is juicy and tender, and there is the choice of two sides. With a full bar, friendly wait staff and a cozy wood diner meets sports bar interior, it's perfect for lunch, drinks or dinner.

    Fun vibes great food and Bingo Sunday evenings

    Well my cold brew martini was phenomenal and hit the spot! The chicken thighs are so delicious, however I only received one :(. I'm pretty sure that they served me two the last time that we were there. I should have said something but it was a Saturday and the place was busy and our server didn't come back for 30 minutes or so and we just decided oh well and my husband gave me one of the ribs that he had. Hopefully they get it right next time because the food here is so delicious!

    3 meat platter with turkey, sausage and pulled pork.

    Nice little restaurant in a nice location. Parking is decent as there is a lot adjacent to the restaurant property. The decor was a little on the industrial side but was good. We sat outside which is covered so it was nice. Does seem that the place could use a good deep cleaning but not bad enough to keep me from returning. The service was good with food and beverages coming out quickly once orders were placed. The food was good but maybe a little skimpy on the meats especially with the prices being charged. I had smoked turkey, pulled pork and smoked sausage with slaw and beans. All the meats were very tasty and moist and the sides were solid. We started with the poutine which was very good. I got the 3 meat platter figuring to sample a little of 3 types of meat and have some leftovers but there was not much leftover due to small portions on the meat. My wife had brisket with green beans and Mac and cheese. The brisket was good but was only one slice which is a fairly small portion. All things considered the meal was very good and we would probably come back again keeping in mind it's a little pricey for the portion sizes.

    This is some very yummy food. Small business big taste…read more You could almost miss it driving by. It's a little back from the street, a little closed down for winter. You walk in the door and it smells just like heaven if heaven was an amazing barbecue place. Keep walking forward and you can enjoy the historic walls and wood floors and when you get to the counter, they know all the stuff. You can try your stuff, but if you need some advice, they got some good ones. We got a sampler, drums, and a brisket sandwich. They have some delicious barbecue options from spicy to very velvet, smooth and sweet to the Kansas City mustard style. The people were friendly they were efficient. They got us exactly what we ordered, the service was great. The price wasn't too bad either Certainly willing to return here. This is some yummy stuff.

    This excellent BBQ restaurant is located in the German village area of Columbus, Ohio…read more The portions are substantial. I visited with a friend for lunch, purchased the recommended selection, and we sat down to eat. and boy did we eat! But, despite my best efforts, I was not able to vanquish all the food that was on my plate. Wow. I placed all the leftovers in it to go box and it made two meals for later, I was quite surprised. The food here is delicious and I found it to be quite the bargain. Definitely coming back for more. There are lots of barbecue restaurants in Columbus, but Smoked On High truly stands out as exceptional.
