My friend and I was looking around for food after a round of disc golf at Pride's Creek…read more There isn't a lot to choose from in Petersburg and for some reason, searching Yelp only turns up 6 results. This BBQ joint does not show up in any of them so I found No. 423 by Google. First of all, this was a pleasant surprise because my buddy and I didn't have high hopes for it. The restaurant was very clean and the service was great. We started off with an appetizer and chose the onion straws with pulled pork and cheese. The pulled pork was ok and it was mixed with sauce and the onion straws were tasty. Nothing special though. I picked a combo plate with brisket and ribs and chose baked potato salad and cornbread salad. They were out of sweet potato casserole which I picked over cornbread salad. They upcharged for all of this though. They had a choices but brisket and ribs cost more and sides besides beans, slaw, and American potato salad cost more. The brisket was better than the ribs. I was surprised how good the brisket actually was. They got it down with the tenderness and good mix of fat. The ribs were big, meaty and wet but not as good as the brisket. They did give a good size portion for meat but the sides had small portions. I think I ate both sides in four bites. The most impressive thing about No. 423 though were their homemade sauces. Their homemade ranch was zesty. There was a creamy horseradish. The BBQ was a sweet ketchup base and then there was a housemade hot sauce. The hot sauce was a thicker Crystal and I liked mixing it with the BBQ sauce. Sweet tea was refreshingly sweet. Overall, a pretty good place to eat in Petersburg. The sauces are housemade and terrific. The brisket is better than average and the ribs are pretty good. The two things I hate though are so many things having upcharges on a combo plate and the portions of the sides being small. I would eat here again though.

The restaurant has southern bbq vibes and would be great for a hangout or date night as we had hoped and awesome daily deals. We had gone here the last time and had their brisket that was what brought us back. We were given the unfortunate news that the brisket was sold out. We didn't have much hope with the bbq pulled pork and the chicken, but we were pleasantly surprised that the two types of protein we had were even more memorable than the brisket! And the wings! They were seasoned so well and we most definitely had leftovers for the day after. Stick a fork in me, I'm full and happy. Let's go again!!

The pickles were as good as I remembered! The staff is friendly and the food came out quick. We had the whole patio to ourselves which was nice. Especially since it was a beautiful day and we got to sit by the river. My only complaint is that the pulled chicken was very dry. Even with it slathered in BBQ sauce, it still wasn't my favorite. But the pickles were amazing and my loaded baked potato was hearty. Overall pleased with my visit! Bonus points: Got to pet a friendly cat that was hanging around the front doors!

Just water to drink the fried chicken was fresh even though it was close to closing time and the salad was just as good the baked beans have a really unique taste. You could tell that they just not opened a can and they put them in the oven. Staff is always friendly and professional, and always eager to accommodate you for any changes or add odd request, the restaurant is really decorated nice with old-fashioned antiques and dining room and carry out area is always well kept and clean. I highly recommend this Little barbecue place with Amish style.
