    This is my first visit to this location and it might be my new fave! The interior is a huge space,…read moregreat for a big group - and even a little separate event room. Bright and clean inside. Service was wonderful, our server was friendly and gave us some great recs. My husband and I shared the 3 meat plate and had leftovers to take home. We ordered brisket, hot wings and ribs for our meats and Mac n cheese and beef fries for our sides. The ribs were our favorites - they literally fell off the bone as we put on our plates. The hot sauce has a kick and is delicious. The Mac n cheese is my favorite side here, so delicious. The beef fries are amazing too. Prices are very reasonable too. We will definitely be back!

    Not sure if I would go back. The location is in a crazy…read morebusy intersection. They do have a nice size parking lot to park in. The atmosphere was clean and nice inside. The food... We started off with the deviled eggs (good) and the hush puppies (horrible). The hush puppies had no flavor to them and were burnt on the outside. They give you a honey butter with the hush puppies and I see why because the hush puppies are horrible. Then we ordered the three meat platter with two sides. Smoke wings, ribs and chicken. The meat overall was good. They do offer four different sauces at the table to go along with the meat. We also ordered the coleslaw and fries, which were both good. There was some kind of bread (Cheddar and bacon popover) that came along with this plate and flavorless (horrible) It was pointless to have that on the plate. Drinks- Lucky Club cola Our waitress was great and she knew a lot about the food there. They did offer us a sample of their special. It was some kind of turkey jalapeño sandwich. I wish I would've ordered that. It was good.

    We happened to be staying in a nearby hotel. So happy we tried this place! Waitress was very…read morefriendly and service was speedy. But most importantly the food WAS ALL GREAT. Slaw, ribs, burnt ends, brisket, pork, beans and garlic toast! Restaurant clean with cool options on tables to add bbq sauces.

    You know, maybe it's just a Bandana's thing - and I just don't like it…read more Bandana's is a BBQ restaurant like someone that knows BBQ well tried explaining it to a tribesman in a South American rainforest and him opening up a restaurant. It's just not really a real BBQ place. I understand that a lot of people like it, and more power to them. But it's just not our style. Often the brisket has a lot of fat. And not the good rendered fat, just plain old fat. I've more than a few times experienced that there is little to no bark on the meat. I'm a big fan of ribs and these I find disappointing. They almost always lack in flavour. If they don't taste great plain, with nothing on them, simply smoked, then having to doctor them up with sauces to make up for it is just not the way it should be done. The Cole slaw....man.....it all depends on where in the Cole slaw bucket they are at because sometimes it can be the nice Cole slaw they have, other times they are scraping the bottom of the barrel and what you get is a sloppy wet mess of grated cabbage. Can't even say it feels like a good ol' BBQ atmosphere. The potato salad at Bandana's has always been nice, the employees, for the most part, at this location have been attentive and friendly. We've given Bandana's quite a few visits, this location a good 3 to 4 times, but I think this last visit will be just that - our last visit. In this town there are just too many other choices for BBQ. Sorry Bandana's, we've given you more than a fair chance!
