“ This has always been our go to restaurant. The food and the service is excellent. I am sorry to say that recent price increases have us looking for cheaper options. ”
“ Convenient location along Mid Rivers Mall dr and 364/94. Cute decor, clean. it's HOT outside and quite cool inside. It's an express, so you order at the counter and food is brought to your table (or your carryout). Our food was fresh and hot. i like the Budget Buster brisket w 2 sides. i got green beans and premium sweet potato fries. My dining companions got pulled pork sandwiches and the fried green beans. We were all happy with portion sizes. Even though an express, staff came through to check on us and remove dishes. ”
“ Consistency is key! You always know what you are going to get at Bandanna's and it's consistently good. Tonight they had a sign up that said they were out of chicken, turkey, and brisket but that's OK I wanted those ribs! I really wanted the combo of ribs and chicken thighs but, oh well. Their green beans clearly come from a can but they had some kind of a spice and some onions so they are delicious and their coleslaw is always creamy and iced cold, which I appreciate. It took less than 10 minutes from the time I ordered until the time they brought my to-go bag and I was on my way. Fast and friendly service. Clean restaurant with a huge patio. ”
“ Love bandanas a great place to eat for some good barbecue. The place is over all a nice place good barbecue environment. Ordered some good food tasted great. The service on the other hand was another story. We arrived and the restaurant was 3/4 empty but when they sat us down they sat everyone right next to each other. There was no space between guests even though there was lot of room that they could have put a table in between each guest. Instead we had to hear the conversation of the table next to us which is rather annoying. This isn't the only time this has happened it always seems to happen. One thing if the place was full then it can't be helped but there were only 3 tables that had guests on them. So we asked to move to the next one to give us space which they allowed it. So we moved but after that the waitress turned off the niceness and was a bit short in the ways she talked to us and served us. We still loved the food and we will go back again. It is a great place to eat. Give it a try and make your own opinion. ”
“ 4 stars instead of 5 just cause it's more fast food than I thought it would be. Order at the counter, seat yourself type place. Very chain restaurant feeling. Big open space and very clean, but again felt like I was in a chain restaurant which I'm not a big fan of. If it weren't for my friends suggesting to go there because I was visiting here I probably wouldn't have chosen this place. The young lady at the counter was very nice and helpful. Food: ordered the combo; 2 meats, 2 sides. Chose burnt ends and ¼ chicken. Burnt ends were a little too burnt/dry. Chicken wasn't cooked enough. Not raw, just seemed boiled instead of rotisserie. Green beans seemed like they came out of a can. Baked potato was fine. Love the variety of BBQ sauces, but they were nothing special, and seemed like they were something you could buy at the market. ”
“ I did a carry out order and wasn't the one who picked it up so I can't attest to the service although I was told it was good by the person who picked it up. I got the chicken tenders platter and it was so delicious! I'm a big fan of the Chicago bbq sauce, super tasty! Fries could've been a little crispier but that's a risk you take when doing carry out, they were still good.baked beans were good as well! Would come here again ”
“ SOLID local BBQ joint. Food's always good and great service whenever we're here. I ordered the chicken budget buster meal for $8. Requested bone-out chicken, baked potato, side salad, comes with garlic bread. Perfect amount for a normal person, delicious, and priced right considering rising costs. My Marine, on the other hand, ordered A POUND of pulled pork, a triple serving of coleslaw, and fries. I honestly don't know where he puts it. We've come here the last 3 years to watch the Super Bowl, not because they have a watch event, but because they don't. It's quiet, not crowded, great service, and cold beer. Nothing bad to report other than the Broncos were terrible again this year. Imagine that. ”
“ Speedy service and the Budget Buster's lunch options make this a good choice. My chicken special was a little dry and tough on the poultry but other items were all fine. A friend's salad was too large for him to finish. ”
