"A West Columbia, South Carolina barbecue spot whose chef Robbioe Robinson was among the finalists in the James Beard Foundation's Best Chef: Southeast category." - Missy Frederick
"Sure, you go to City Limits Barbeque for brisket and hash from the James Beard-nominated chef Robbie Robinson, but don’t forget to grab a container of pimento cheese. It comes in regular or sweet jalapeno." - Erin Perkins
"Yes, it’s a drive from downtown, and yes, it’s only open two days a week. And still, City Limits Barbeque chef-owner Robbie Robinson has more than earned his spot as a James Beard Best Chef finalist in 2024 and 2025, among other impressive accolades. On Friday nights, the restaurant will send out an email with the weekend’s menu. Count on there being a line, but the Texas and Carolina-style barbecue is well worth the wait." - Helen Harrison
"A West Columbia, SC barbecue spot that earned a 2025 James Beard Foundation finalist nod in the restaurant and chef categories, standing as one of three finalists from the Carolinas; winners will be announced at the James Beard Awards ceremony on June 16 at the Lyric Opera of Chicago." - Erin Perkins
"Robbie Robinson is named with this West Columbia barbecue institution as a 2025 James Beard Foundation semifinalist in the 'Outstanding Chef presented by Hilton' category, reflecting recognition for his work at the barbecue operation." - Erin Perkins
