I was visiting my pal’et Squeaky and her squeeze the Big Banana at their home on Columbus Square and they had some BBQ delivered from The Hardwood Bar & Smokery from just a couple of blocks away. It’s now my favorite BBQ place in the city! This joint is true BBQ, cooked with low temperatures and smoke from select hardwoods. The ribs were amazing!

Was very surprised at how good the bbq is here. Brisket is one of the best I’ve had in SF (yes, I know). Great ribs and riblits.

Excellent beverages, warm hospitality, and mouthwatering BBQ! The ribs and pulled pork were both top-notch. The vegetables were incredibly colorful, the side salad was incredibly fresh, and the coleslaw was balanced, crisp, and refreshing. I like that it wasn’t overly sweet or mayo-drenched. Excellent corn muffin; I really liked that it wasn’t sugary. Most barbecue joints use excessive amounts of sugar, but that wasn’t the case here. There were many vegetables in the beans. Although the flavor was wonderful, we would have preferred a little more salt. When we visited on a Saturday at noon, there was plenty of street parking available but no game. My basil gimlets were well-balanced, tasty, and way too simple to drink.

A real solid Smokehouse! One of the best places in SF to get American BBQ. Let’s start with the meat, the ribs were perfect. Tender and sweet but not too sweet with the perfect amount of char. The brisket had a lot of flavor and the chicken was handled really well. Top notch stuff so far. Now let’s not forget what every good BBQ needs, sides. The curly fries were good and the Mac salad was even better. They had some very nice baked beans and also some fantastic pickles. This place has some big portion combo options which makes it perfect for large groups. If your a BBQ fan Harwood is a must try, bottom line. Dos BBQs up

Excellent cocktails, friendly service, and great BBQ! The pulled pork and ribs were excellent. The side salad was super fresh, coleslaw was crisp, refreshing, and balanced and veggies were super vibrant. Love that it wasn’t super sweet or drowned in mayo. Corn muffin was excellent…also love that it wasn’t sweet. Most BBQ places go overboard on sugar but everything here avoided that. The beans had lots of veggies. Flavor was good but could have used a tad bit of salt for our preference. Lots of street parking when we were there on a Sat at noon…no game at that time. My basil gimlets were balanced and flavorful and went down way too easy.

Dude this place is the TRUTH. The meats were all perfectly cooked, and delicious. The sauces were other-worldly in their excellence, drinks were tasty, and service was great. I want to go hide in the walk in and set up a little tent inside and become a squatter in this establishment so I can eat this food constantly. Its insanely dank. You gotta eat here forreal.

The Cook’s said this was Bay Area style BBQ (Beef Brisket & Pork Spare Ribs).
