I was doing a job at the Ford plant for 7 months and I absolutely loved the food and the service was on point highly recommend this place
I have had Jim Dandy's many, many times and the food has always been excellent. I have used them to cater parties for me as well, and if I use another caterer to mix it up, my friends always ask me if we are having " those ribs". So much so, that if I have another caterer do my party, I also get 5 to 10 slabs of ribs, from Jim also. The other caterer I use has excellent food too, and is very understanding about Jim's ribs! Love the sides, pulled pork and chicken, and the brisket too! You can't go wrong, and on the rare occasion where something isn't quite right, they are happy to make it right immediately.
Love the place!
Ok...WOW! Let's start with the simple stuff. The beans and rice are AMAZING! Corn bread? To DIE FOR! The brisket and pork were some of the best ever! Everything meat is wood fired here. The place smells wonderful! WAY better than other places. I didn't even try the sauces on the table until I was done eating as I love the natural flavors of the smokiness of their meats. Then I "finger tested" the sauces. The mild was great, so was the hot, but the mild would certainly sell gallons if available! I wanted to smuggle a table bottle out, but they were watching me. If I lived here, I would be here 3 times per week at least!
Totally awesome! Passing through overnight and had to try it due to high rating. It was even better than imagined. Had pulled pork platter with beans and potato salad. Daughter had the same with mac'n cheese. All of it was unbelievably good.
Great and very welcoming staff! The employees are so friendly makes you feel like you are going to a family members house for dinner or lunch. The best bread putting you can get in Ohio. Get the pulled brisket sandwich! Real BBG
Just had a 80th Birthday party for the owner of JF Berns in Forest Park for 40 team members.
Ribs feel off the bones, sides and corn bread perfect. Owner and staff always friendly and price is definitely affordable! Recommend you make the trip ( just for smells, lol) .
Wow! Such delicious food. I ate everything on my plate. Definitely try this place out!!!
Absolutely epicly amazing! Great good with exceptional service. The first question they ask before you order is "how are you doing?" A great place to come as a couple, small or large groups, and catering! The owner is a blessed godly man with fantastic food. I highly recommend the pulled pork to start, and the creamy bread pudding to finish.
I'm no barbecue expert, but use been to a few different restaurants around the country, and this was one of the best. I ordered a half rack of ribs, and they were fantastic. Great flavor, and the portion was large. The meat was lean, without too lunch fat or gristle like you sometimes get on ribs. The sauce was delicious as well. I mixed the mild and hot barbecue sauces. The sides were also pretty good. The price was a little higher than I've seen in other places for ribs, but I think it was worth the money. Highly recommended.
Jim Dandy's is fantastic barbecue. I get their brisket almost every time but their pulled pork is just as good. The choices of sides are great, potato salad being my personal favorite. The crew is very friendly and attentive. The only downside is the lack of sauce's, only a mild and hot on each table with around 4 additional. Love the hot sauce, but would love to see more varieties.
Jim Dandy's is a great place to go in and get some BBQ when you're on a time crunch. Walk in and place your order and they will plate your food and ring up your bill quickly. The BBQ was really good. I got their brisket sandwich and it did not disappoint. The bread pudding was super delicious as a side!! Some items will take a bit longer to get because they have to warm them up like the kielbasa. I recommend giving this place a try and enjoy their BBQ.
Baby backs were good. Meat fell off bone... cooked perfectly. Corn bread great if you like sweet. Luckily I like sweet and buttermilk. Brisket was great too. Staff was extremely courteous and professional... even young. My mother, my daughter and I would eat here again. Actually... when I pass back through in a couple days after dropping them off in Alabama, I will be stopping to take a slab and some bread pudding (which I didn't try today) home to Ohio.
