Amazing BBQ and even better service! The brisket and pulled pork were tender and packed with flavor, and the sides hit the spot. Great prices for how much you get. Big shoutout to Jack and Cameron for being super friendly and making the experience even better. Can’t wait to come back!

Despite being a restaurant chain, the food was pretty damn good. Big sampler kind of guy, so I tried a bunch of stuff. Highlights were the brisket, turkey, and honestly, chicken tenders w/ the Nashville Hot seasoning. I'd sadly skip the ribs, but get the hush puppies. Jack did a good job helping us out. It was cute inside, but his frog hat was the highlight of the environment. There should be more of that in these establishments. Maybe some cool stuff too, like a life sized wax figurine of Steve Irwin. Or Dwayne the Rock Johnson maybe. In the flesh. I'm not sure if that would fit in City Barbeques budget or not, but if they need any other rad ideas, they know where to find me. 5/5

First time trying them out after waiting for them to open. Nice clean place with ample seating. Friendly staff and a wonderful wood fired grill smell. All in all very inviting. I order the 18-hour beef brisket combo. It comes with a drink and side for about $17. I went with the Mac and cheese, which was just all right. The sauce was a bit runny for my preference but the flavor was good. The brisket sandwich however was really good. The meat was tender and delicious, piled high upon the bun. The sauce comes on the side, which I prefer. They have three different one to choose from, I choose the sweet one and was happy with it. My work partner went with the pulled pork sandwich. She

All the good things are here 🤎 if you are looking for a nice relaxing place to go and enjoy some delicious BBQ, look no further. From the second we walked in everyone was so welcoming, Edmond walked us through the menu, James then took our order... was very patient as there were so many good things to choose from and ultimately Patrick made me some delicious tacos 🌮 and made Dave pulled chicken and such tender juicy brisket! Dave's favorite. 😊 so good we decided to get the pulled nachos for later! Well worth the drive of an hour that took us to get it! Thanks City BBQ for making us lunch and dinner!

SO DELICIOUS! I enjoyed the pulled pork, mac & cheese, corn pudding, a couple bites of the garlic bread before my son decided he wanted it and corn bread because of it! We tried the fries too, but that was TOO much. Others tried similar plates and a turkey sandwich. The other delicious side tried was their baked beans. Then we had to try the strawberry cobbler. OH...MY...GOODNESS! Cooked to perfection with delicious in-house made whipped cream!

Shoutout to carmen on boards this place is so good I love the brisket everyone saying it's dry is a liar because it's good I could be locked in a cage starving and on the brink of death and all I would want is the bread the bread is so good and I am so sorry to all the orphan children who can't experience this bbq. Nashville and cowbell are the best sandwiches everyone and their mom should eat here thank me later.

Chicken was juicy and tender. Brisket was a bit dry but maybe because we went almost during closing hours hence it wasn’t fresh. Rolls and fries are well seasoned. Sauces are good especially the spicy barbecue sauces.

First time customers (7/12/2025). We needed to find a new BBQ place to satisfy our taste buds since SHEETZ is taking over 12 & Mound. WE FOUND IT. Ordered the Judges' sampler to try their variety. Ribs, Brisket, Pulled Pork, Chicken, Baked Beans and Hush Puppies are ALL EXCELLENT. The Coleslaw could have been a bit creamer, but we didn't come here for veggies or salad. Loved their sauces as well. We will definitely be back and bringing friends.

Review #505 Monday, 12/30/2024 My review is based on a Box Lunch Sandwich with 2 sides that I enjoyed eating at home from a Christmas work luncheon catered on Monday 12/16/2024 from City Barbeque. The Management company ordered many flavors of City's famous tender meats such as pulled pork, brisket, chicken and black bean burger, along with 2 sides to complete the combo lunch boxes. My sandwich was 1/4# pulled pork that was in a foam cup plain so I added City Barbeque famous sauce to mix together. A large soft roll and container of pickles topped off my half of a sandwich. (Ate other half for dinner) My two sides was a cup of creamy Mac and Cheese and a cornbread loaf with honey package. The lunch sandwich was delicious with tender pork meat too. The sauce was tasty and satisfying with 3 crunchy Pickles. I added honey to the Cornbread which was fantastic! Oh My Deeeelicious on their creamy Mac and Cheese Cup. Photos all are attached. Thanks again City for amazing foods! Check out their catering website or order at citybbq.com/catering. City Barbeque has been in business for 20 years serving spicy and sweet tasting meats, sides and so much more from delicious foods to taste and enjoy year round. Thank you City Barbeque in Troy for your hard work and efforts with so many lunch choices and delicious sides prepared to satisfy so many work appetites! I look forward to stopping in at this location to sit down and enjoy another meal such as My Tasty Dinner in the New Year Of Yummy 2025 ! Phone: (248) 918-4431 Hours: Monday - Friday 11 AM - 8 PM Saturday 11AM - 9 PM Sunday 11 AM - 8 PM Sincerely, SpecialK N. :-)

I hadn't been to City Barbecue in quite a long time - since before they moved to this location, when they used to be in a plaza on Big Beaver. I'm still in their e-club though, And recently they've been sending me a lot of deals, including this week, when they sent me a free two meat, two side plate, which was too much to resist, so I stopped by for lunch today. They have curbside which was excellent. When I pulled up, I clicked a button on my phone, on their website, and my food came out very quickly. I believe they also offer this on their app. I ordered brisket, which normally is a $3 upcharge; pulled pork; hush puppies; and corn pudding. It also comes with Texas toast. The brisket was really, really good and a lot better than I had remembered. The pulled pork was decent but did have a lot of fatty pieces, which is not my preference. The hush puppies were also very good, which I remembered from the last time I did take out, but the corn pudding was a little more mushy than I would like. Overall they've made me a new fan and I will stop by this location again when I'm in the area. They also have a drive-thru, which is super convenient. I don't remember what was there before but my guess is it was a fast food place.

I'd like to this place had a drive-through, but I really didn't have time to really really look at the menu. So I ordered a one meat special, which consists of one meat and a side and a drink. I got a pork sausage, potato salad, and sweet tea. It was all pretty good, especially the potato salad and a sweet tea. The sausage dipped in their barbecue sauce was also OK. Would I return?? I would return.

I decided to stop in for the first time today as I was super hungry and completely opposed to patronizing the usual suspects (Panera, BK, Taco Bell, McDonald's, Jimmy John's, etc.). I'm so glad I did! The food was pretty good and the quick, yet attentive service was even better! By the way -- shout out to that amazing person holding down the drive-thru; you made my day! I got the half bird combo with corn pudding, baked beans w/ brisket, and paid for an additional side of creamy coleslaw. The chicken was flavorful, tender, and juicy. The corn pudding was good enough to make me come back a few times a week. The beans were pretty damn decent (I prefer a sweeter baked bean; these were bbq sauce-based and smoky...and yes I ate them all). I did not care for the coleslaw, but it wasn't bad either; it was just missing a hint of sweetness. I did not eat it all. I also had the banana pudding. *insert drool here* Don't even question it; JUST GET IT!!!!! Overall, it was a great meal. To me, the portions were substantial as I had enough to eat lunch and dinner, and the prices were what you should expect them to be in this inflated post-pandemic world. I am definitely going back and trying a few other things, while keeping some of the same picks in tow. Oh yeah, and the sweet tea was definitely sweet tea-ing! *slurp* Good job City BBQ!

Place is nice inside and out, sauces all tasted good service was good and the dining room was clean. As for the food it's a no for me. The pulled pork was a no, the brisket was decent, Texas sausage tasted like Italian sausage (you could taste the fennel in it) the only way I could eat it was drenched in sauce, Mac n Cheese nope, baked beans was a yes, coleslaw no thank you. Too expensive for what you get, chocolate cake looked really good but I didn't get it.

This location in Troy MI recently opened. They were out of several dishes which is common with good BBQ Restaurants. I had the brisket and pulled pork. It was delicious.

The food is very good and I would have rated things a 5, but I found the online ordering interface to be very unreliable.

Excellent BBQ, not dry like so many are. The chocolate cake is to die for. Join their rewards and get free stuff. We come here often.

We couldn't wait for this new location to open... we've always loved city Barbeque over any other , including Slows Detroit. The minute we get out of our car, the smell of smoke instantly makes me hungry. Good smoked meats and delicious sides like potato salad, and southern green beans.. and the peach cobbler is to die for.wonderful wait staff.. great prices. It's comfort food for sure

I placed an online order @ 6:15 last night & when I arrived to pick up my order they informed me they were out of ribs. Why would a barbecue place not have ribs at 6:25 on a Saturday night?! Unacceptable.

I love going on Rib Tuesday, 12 ribs , save about 10.00 dollars . Banana bread pudding , our favorite dessert. Our sides are Cole slaw and beans with brisket.

The restaurant atmosphere was nice, clean and warm. The food was a mixed review. The brisket was good. Chicken tenders were awesome. The sausage was okay. The Mac & cheese was horrible. It was dry and lacked flavor. The pulled chicken looked like vomit. It was mixed with mayo & horseradish. I would rather go to Mission BBQ over City BBQ any day of the week.
