SMOKEY BONES DAYTON REVIEWS

I really enjoyed my experience at this Smokey bones location in Dayton. Natasha was our server and was very friendly and attentive as well as informative about the menu. She offered suggestions and provided useful information while we were ordering. And of course the food was tasty and the presentation was good. We will definitely come back.

Good food and atmosphere. Except for the bartender. She was very loud and causing problems with other employees. Recommend doing reservation online before going though.

The food was a 10/10 , ashley was a really good server she was nice and really sweet, she made sure me and my group was good the whole time overall i rate a 100/10.

OLD HICKORY BAR B-Q REVIEWS

Been awhile since I've been to this establishment. Prices are still reasonable for the portions they provide. The food arrived to the table in a reasonable time from ordering hot and fresh with great presentation. I definitely plan to revisit again soon when I can choose from the full menu and try some other selections. Parking: Plenty of parking availability. Wheelchair accessibility: Easy wheelchair access throughout.

Have always loved Old Hickory for their Great food reasonable prices and friendly staff. Close to home too!

Amazing pulled pork and ribs! Very friendly staff and super fast service. We'll be back!

CITY BARBEQUE REVIEWS

City BBQ is amazing. The good is great. Portions are great. $35.00 for two people - in today's market? Amazing. John, the manager let us substitute brisket on the Judges Sampler since they were out of pulled pork for the evening. Very grateful. Give em a shot. Great place.

The smoked chicken wings are very small flats and drums. They definitely have a different taste to them. I personally wasn't a huge fan of them but others may love them. They have a very heavy smoked flavor and that's the only thing I could taste. Very tender but no crisp at all on the outside. The restaurant was very clean and staff were very friendly and fast.

Love city bbq! They have it down to a science. So consistent. You know exactly what your getting! I had the Carolina goldmine! Very tasty! My wife had the Nashville hot chicken sandwich and the kids had chicken tenders and fries.
