Amazing ribs - smoked to perfection. The best St. Louis ribs we've tasted. The ribs were juicy, meaty, and perfectly smoked. The sides of cornbread, chili, coleslaw and greens were perfect pairings to making this one of our favorite places to visit. Mouthwatering ribs and makes you stop to take in the taste and flavor. Clean establishment and friendly service. Only wish they were opened 7 days a week!
Above average barbecue. Lousy service.
It's not that everyone working there was awful. On the contrary almost everyone there seemed wonderful. The only guy who seemed to hate being there and hate is for being there was the guy who actually takes your order.
The catfish was nothing special. I'm pretty sure it was GFS bought, or cooked to look that way.
The barbecue was very good. Not holy mother of cow I need to come here now good, but it is some of the best in town.
Best brisket we've found.. South Street Smokehouse appears to be a hole in the wall, but the food is fabulous and the employees are very friendly. We've been trying brisket at other bbq places in the midwest, but haven't found anything that comes remotely close. The rest of the food is good too, but the brisket really stands out.
It's all good!. My only suggestion is go early if you are picky about what you order. We went late in the evening and 1/3 of the menu items were sold out. My first two choices sold out while I was waiting in line but my third selection led me to some of the best ribs I've ever tasted. Don't go without trying the cornbread either. I will definitely be back!
I'll be back in the spring. On a golf trip to Kentucky last Nov., We had an opportunity to stop here. If your going for ambience, this is not the place. This is more on the side of a dive. But a great dive. I love BBQ sausage, and was served one of the better ones here (wasnt on the menu, but he made an order for me). Don't know what seasoning they put on their fries, but they were some of the best I've had in a long time. The rest of our group really enjoyed their brisket and pork. BBQ comes in many forms, find something you like at one place and hate the same order at a different place. That's why there's so many styles of BBQ.
My first thought, "Just Honest" must have been a competitor and not a realistic opinion. I've also experienced some of the best reviews (Good & Bad) from visitors that came from long distances. Strictly MY opinion, but in doing my research for the 35+ golf day dinners a year for the last 7 years, my group. have experienced very few hiccups. Thanks Urbanspoon & its many followers.
Some of the best barbecue and sauces I've ever tasted! A must go!
Good Sandwich. They make a good beef brisket sandwich. Fried pickles were good, the side of baked beans was a little on the small side. Great cornbread though.
I loved eating here.I come there often.
Have some good beef tips. I also had the white meet chicken sadly this was overly dry. Overall a good meal for the price.
Went on a Saturday at noon and the service was great. Food came out quick and got a table no problem. St. Louis Ribs were delicious and the bbq sauces were great that I had (Sweet & Tangy and Spicy). Overall, a great experience and would be happy to come back again when I'm in the area on a trip.
After going to South Street for years, we were curious about the new City BBQ, so we tried it for lunch today. South Street is so much better, we'll be back! To those who say they are never open, it only takes a quick call to check their hours, which are listed on their answering machine. They are a small business. Don't expect them to always be open.
I love South Street. It is so nice to be able to come back and eat here again after they had to close for so long. The food is still delicious and the bbq sauce is as remembered. I had missed this place but will be back over and over
People recommended this BBQ joint to us. It's kinda a hole in the wall and that's a good thing. The brisket that I had was really, really good, but the sides were a little bland (Mac n Cheese and Greens). My friend loved the ribs. I would eat here again.
Love BBQ. Closer to closing thou they have run out of items, but that just tells u how good it is!!!
