Tried something new today, and Bar b Cutie was on the agenda. We ordered online and picked it up via the drive-thru. The transaction was easy. The staff were polite and quick. The drive thru has a funny curve to it, so watch your string here. The food was good and was good value. It’s not too pricy. The pulled pork sandwich was soft and flavourful. I would have liked a toasted bun, though. The turnip greens were really good. Will get those again. The mild BBQ sauce is tangy and sweet. The onion rings were fresh and crisp. Good dipped in ranch. Overall good meal and I will try them again.

Let me start by saying I am from Texas and I know BBQ. Now bar-b-cutie always passed always said I’m going to try this one day, well today was the day. So let’s roll up our sleeves and dig into this review. No particular order the Mark (brisket, sausage, jalapeño cheese, and an onion ring). For me to say it was 3 stars is me not telling the truth but for the sake of the wait staff (cashiers) they make that extra star shine. Not pictured was banana pudding, and two Christie cookies. Wife did not enjoy the banana pudding and that is why we got the cookies. Now Christie cookies is a staple in Nashville but I did not see what the big deal is with the cookies? Maybe I need to pick up a regular cookie and see. All in all it was a nice little spot I know they also have breakfast, so maybe one day it will be updated until then decent but didn’t wow me. Again I’m from texas so maybe just bias.

My girlfriend dumped my mom’s ice tea on her lap, it was hilarious. I had the brisket sandwich and mac and cheese. Tons of brisket, nice soft potato bun and it’s great to pick and choose and mix sauces at the table. The Mac and cheese was classic too!

We had dinner here a couple days ago and it was good bbq the ribs where good and the smoked sausage was also really good the rest of our items where also tasty oh and the sweet tea it was on point. If you like bbq and traveling near this spot I would recommend trying them out or if you are a local and had never eaten there hey go by and try them out you shouldn’t be disappointed. They had a very large amount of items to choose from.

Good things first: the tall kid behind the register was super friendly and helpful. He’s a good worker. The food was pretty good too, but I just couldn’t enjoy dinner with Qanon Karen blasting on Fox News. Both huge flatscreen TVs was non-stop fear mongering. We asked to change the channel, but they “lost the remote”. The experience was pretty bad with Tucker Carlson and then Sean Hannity whining at full volume over dinner. We’ll go somewhere else next time.

The food is so good. If you want good country food come here. The place was very comfy we sat there a long time and the girl serving us was so kind and took care of every thing. I also like the decorations.

We were very excited to try to the food, but unfortunately after waiting more than 20 minutes at the drive thru sign, we decided to leave. Someone came over the intercom and said, “one moment” and then never came back. These days, we are used to places being understaffed, but you should set a realistic expectation and let people know how far behind your service is. Very disappointed that they couldn’t have at-least told us there was a wait, just left us sitting there.

Absolutely delicious BBQ pork w/ corn bread, beef brisket sandwich, cream corn, potato salad and onion rings. We tried all the sauce on the table and they were quite delicious as well.

Great meal, every time we drive through town. The brisket is fall- apart delicious. Try the Carolina sauce as your salad dressing!

Food was garbage. Dry and no flavor at all. Super disappointed. Money down the drain. I worked in patient food service at a hospital in my younger years and their ribs were better. No exaggeration at all. Do not make the same mistake I did. Stay away from this place. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
