Midway BBQ

I'd been wanting to visit a Pizza Hut Classic for a long time since I'm a sucker for the nostalgia,…read moreand there aren't any near where I live. My family and I were on a road trip and realized one was only a small detour away, so we couldn't pass up the opportunity. Unfortunately, our drive took longer than expected, and we arrived just after the dining room had closed. That was disappointing because the inside looked exactly like the Pizza Hut I remember growing up. The atmosphere alone brought back a lot of great childhood memories, and the salad bar looked fantastic. I only wish we'd made it in time to experience the full dine-in experience. Since the dining room was closed, we ordered two pizzas and an order of breadsticks to go. The breadsticks were a little bland, but the pizzas were good. They didn't quite have the look or taste of the classic Pizza Hut pizzas I remembered, but everyone enjoyed them, especially my kids. What really stood out was the staff. They were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating, making us feel appreciated even though we arrived late for dine-in service. Overall, while the food was solid and the nostalgia was definitely there, I think the real highlight was the warm, friendly service. I'll have to make another trip someday to enjoy the dining room and salad bar the way they were meant to be experienced.

It's clearly a management problem…read morebut last week I ordered a hand-tossed pizza, but when I arrived they had made it out of thin crust because they were out of the other kind. Ok, fine.. no discount offered but mistakes happen. This week I ordered a pan-pizza and when I arrived they said they were again out of everything expect the thin crust. They said they tried calling me but after checking my phone log and double checking my number on the app, I never received a call. How can you have a pizza restaurant when you don't have pizza? Pretty bizarre.

I asked the manger her name and she told me her name 2x without a care in the world!!!!!!

YUM YUM! We have been eating here for many years. It is always delicious. Our favorite is, by far, the Hash. Even if you do not eat any of the great side offerings, this hash is fantastic on fresh loaf bread with a little Dukes all by itself. We get down to Union county every now and then visiting during the day and if we cannot eat there at the time, we go by on our way home and get a quart of hash. You can choose it hot or cold. We get it cold because we live so far away. I have a thick freezer bag and a huge frozen ice block in it and I put it in there to keep ice cold while out on our adventures. Sandwiches later that night for supper with fresh homemade slaw and chips. YUM YUM! No complaints about the food or quality, BUT do wish their portion sizes were a tiny bit more than they serve on the plates. The young people dishing it up might want to consider that the recipient might want to eat portions sizes that are for an adult and not a child. Customers hate to go back to the front and ask for more as there is barely any meat on the plate. The owners need to instruct the staff better as it is always the owner that takes your plate and makes it right. And they always do with a smile. We also wish they would not close at 6pm every day except on Wednesday when they close at 4pm. If they would stay open until 8pm every night except on church Wednesday, more people would get to eat there. When you don't get off of work before 5 or 6pm., you never get to go there because they are always closed by 6pm. Please stay open later, especially on Friday and Saturday for those of us that can't make it before 6pm. Mouth is watering now, guess where I wanna go? read more

Though it may not look like your average restaurant upon first glance, when you enter, you're immediately hit by the faint scent of barbecue, and friendly faces all around, as if there were angels in the architecture of the restaurant. I ordered the BBQ mash with a side of macaroni pie, which is basically reworded mac and cheese. When i took my first bite, it was if i were engulfed in a sweetly sonorous mist of barbecue, and, knowing Sammy Nestico's proverb "Time Waits For No One", i got to work scarfing the dish down in a very flavorfully powerful trance.

He greeted me right away and walked me through the menu when I told him it was my first time. I went with the small meat (LMAO SMALL MEAT) sampler platter (name's escaping me) with mac & cheese and house chips. The platter included brisket, pulled pork, sausage, and three smoked wings--at $32, not exactly cheap, so it had to be either incredible or abundant. Fortunately, it was both. Every meat was juicy--something too many barbecue spots mess up by letting their meats dry out in the holding cabinet. My favorite? Probably the smoked wings, but everything was genuinely excellent. Somehow, the sides were just as impressive as the meats. Great mac & cheese isn't uncommon, but great house potato chips? That's rare. I've had way more bad ones than good ones--even at upscale restaurants--but the guy at the counter sold me on them, and he was absolutely right. The chips were sublime. Every single one was perfectly fried. I'd rank them just behind the legendary barbecue chips Jim 'N Nick's (in Georgia) used to serve. I love this place and will think of it first anytime I want a treat-yo-self kind of meal.

They have a large selection and almost everything is home made. We were greeted promptly and welcomed with a friendly smile by the cashier. We ordered ribs and a side of pork. We were disappointed with the ribs . It was the end cut and they were overcooked and dry. Very disappointing compared to prior photos I have seen. The nightlight of the visit was the cobbler. It was wonderful. Served warm with a scoop of ice cream. We would return and hope for a better serving of ribs.

As a declared and self-ordained brisket snob from Texas I've been asked if there are any good…read moreplaces for it in South Carolina. The answer is a resounding "yep" and my favorite is Bobby's BBQ. On a recent visit to Greenville my wife and I made a side trip here, SO worth the stop. This is truly great brisket! Seasoned, wood-smoked, moist and flavorful. So tender it can be cut with a fork. Meat candy goodness. Is it supposed to be so dark? Absolutely, the servings are NOT burnt. There's a wonderful bark on this brisket which comes from a generous seasoned rub, low heat and a lot of TLC. Is it supposed to be fatty? You bet. Brisket is a tough cut of meat and fat provides tenderness, moisture and flavor. This ain't fine dinin' but the service from the counter is always welcoming and helpful. There is indoor and outdoor seating if you'd prefer to stretch your legs and eat here instead of waiting for the long drive home. The sides and sauces are very good as well. I love the Sweet Potato Crunch and the tangy OG Sauce is as good as any Texas Hill Country joint offers. (Sorry, I have no food photos. We got this order to-go and I didn't want to mislead anyone with shots of dinner on our deluxe paper plates.)

We each got the sandwich combo (meat of your choice, 2 sides & a drink) and some smoked sausages. The turkey was amazing, as was the brisket and pulled pork! The sausage is some of the best we've ever had. My sons loved the mac 'n cheese and I loved the coleslaw and sweet potato casserole. There's plenty of seating, both inside and outdoors. The vibe is very family friendly and welcoming. They had seasonal blackberry & peach cobbler on the menu, but it was sold out that evening. My husband returned the following day to get some (and a couple more sausages). The cobbler was worth the wait! Staff is personable and friendly! We will definitely be back!
