Two "Ds" for Dry and Disappointing My wife and I went looking for the restaurant after seeing their signs posted along US 19. We were excited when we walked in as the restaurant was nice and clean albeit a bit small. We ordered the brisket sandwich and pulled pork sandwich. I was disappointed after the first bite. My brisket was dry and bland. I tried to moisten the meat but the house BBQ sauce bottles were almost empty. The lady at the cash register said they were waiting on the delivery truck to arrive. What? You dont make at least one flavor of BBQ sauce in-house? I noticed only two flavors of house BBQ sauce in nearly empty bottles and a nearly full bottle of ketchup. The mustard sauce was labeled but the red sauce was not. They had a few glass bottles of store-bought sauce but I didnt try them. They did not offer cornbread. The Mac & Cheese we had was about the size of an ice cream scoop and was unmemorable. My wife was disappointed with her sandwich as well. I thought I was being overly critical (its hard to make BBQ w/o drying it out) but we both didnt like either sandwich. She brought some meat home but we ended up giving it to the dog. First impressions are the most important. The lunch we had rates among the most disappointing BBQ weve had. Not recommended.

My wife and I ate here recently and I must say it was refreshing to have some good ol barbecue from a non-chain restaurant. The dinning room while small is very well decorated and homely. The portion sizes for the meat where generous while the portion sizes for the sides where very small in my opinion. The meat was very tender and very tasty. The only thing I didnt like and this is personal was the lack of smoke flavor to the meat. I addressed this with the owner and was told they try to keep it mild as the vast majority of people do not like heavy smoke flavor. They do smoke on location with a mixture of oak and hickory. The prices are higher then most local chain bbq however, you get what you pay for. I look forward to eating here again.

Went with 3 others. I go the steak burger and cutting in half and shared with my wife she shared her brisket sandwich with me. Loved the brisket but didnt eat more than a bite of the burger. Tried my daughters chicken quasadilla and it was awesome as well. The staff was very very friendly. The restaurant and bathrooms are very clean. We ate on the outside porch where it was a little less crowded. They have plenty of BBQ sauces to choose from. The prices are fair. Will return sometime.

The staff was nice, the order was completed quickly, and the sauce is quite good. We ordered the Combo Platter (the half chicken and brisket). My wife called in advance to ask how many people it fed. She was told two. It did not. The mac-n-cheese came in a souffle cup, the quarter piece of corn on the cob did not even taste like corn, the half chicken was more like a half pigeon, and the brisket was tough. We are very disappointed.

We have been on the hunt for good BBQ a d we found this gem with a little help from Fox13 and Charley Belcher. It was worth the drive there from spring hill and worth every cent! We will be back again for sure! That carolina gold sauce is my FAVORITE ! The meat was cooked perfectly with just the right amount of fat. Everything we tried had amazing flavour and was very tender and juicy! The staff were very pleasant and friendly!

Over priced and dry food. Baked beans was good. But the amount was the size maybe 1/4 cup. Potato salad taste store bought. Will try one more time, if they up the portions or lower prices, and not serve dry meat. Will never go back. Also, they serve their sandwiches on a un-toasted bun.. $7.99 for a stuffed potato. Way over priced.

This place was great! Small and quaint, super cute! The staff was extremely friendly and engaging. Getting the Circle S Stacker is an absolute must! Delicious! And they have plenty of bbq sauces to choose from...I recommend mixing the Mississippi sweet, mango habanero, and Carolina gold sauces for an AMAZING custom flavor! :)

We stopped by for the first time and the food was great. The place was very clean and the staff was very courteous and polite. My wife and I definitely recommend this place. P.S, my wife and I are both from the south ( Alabama North Carolina) and are very picky about BBQ. We were very surprised and delighted.

We went for the 1st time Sunday. I got the brisket platter my wife got the sandwich. Staff was nice and had the food within 10 minutes of ordering.2 complaints and theyre minor. No fountain drinks with refills. Only refills are on the sweet tea. The food is ok but a bit overpiced. Will I go back probably.

My second visit, the pulled pork sandwich is great, and the regular size one is huge, loved the BBQ sauce, and I am pretty picky about my BBQ sauces!! Will be back soon. Looking forward to classic car night.

The meat was really good! Portions were small for the amount of the Platters. Price was a little high. Best of luck with your new place!

Ribs were very salty and not easy to eat, did not slide off bone and very tough. Staff was great, and the sides were great.

Freshly smoked BBQ! Quality meats, sauce choices and various sides sets Circle S BBQ above the rest! Open 7 days at 11am!
