Had to stop at Citadel BBQ because of the name. Just down from my hotel too. Very good brisket and sausage! Home made spicy BBQ sauce is great. Homemade sides too! I got Mac & cheese and coke slaw. Both very good. Nice staff. Looks like full bar will open soon. You should stop here!

I’m excited to have this place so close to the office! As a tradition, at any new BBQ joint I get the two meat plate – brisket and sausage. The brisket is about par for the course for a location that can’t smoke; thin and tougher without the smoky flavor, but still satisfies. However, I will probably rely on other joints for brisket. The jalapeño + cheese sausage was great, and the corn was amazing. Mac + cheese is about a 7/10.

I really wanted this to be good because it is right next to the building I work in. I had the 2 meat plate with chicken, ribs, mac and creamed corn. The chicken had pleasant flavor but was dry. The ribs were very dry also which could be because they gave me the end pieces. The ribs were also very salty. The corn tasted great but it had all the salt it could handle. They could have added an extra 16oz can of corn to it and you wouldn’t need to add more salt. So if you took a bite of the ribs you couldn’t eat the corn because now they both taste way to salty. I saw someone described the BBQ sauce as “Ketchup with extra black pepper” which is pretty accurate. But like that thin ketchup not a good thick ketchup. The mac n cheese was pretty good. I have no complaints with the mac. I’d go back if all I was getting was the mac. All of this for $19. I read some mixed reviews so maybe it’s dependent on what pit master is working. $19 is to much for me to roll the dice on which chef is working. 3-24-23

Not too popular, not above average BBQ, the lady doesn’t speak much English and messed up on my order, plus the drink machine was out of ice. It has great location downtown, though.

The guys behind the counter were super helpful the food was good but you could tell some food was sitting out a while. The jambalaya was quite dry, and the corn bread was more like a cookie than bread. Overall was definitely good. the bbq itself is worth a try and reasonably priced for bbq.

Great balance of ingredients on the BBQ Burger, what a BBQ Burger should be. Above my daily lunch allowance.

I don’t know how this place is open. Brisket was tough. They were out of turkey, chicken, mac n cheese, ice, fountain coke, and tea. Offered a bottle of coke instead. The green beans started like saltwater from the ocean.

Food was alright. It’s a decent lunch spot. I’d go again if I find myself nearby and hungry, but there’s better places around that I’d rather have.

So, I’ve been here twice. I tried the BBQ the first time and it was not bad at all. It wasn’t top notch but it’s nice for a lunch. I went back for the burger. $18 for a burger, fries and a drink. Probably about $7-$10 over priced for what you get overall. I was a little disappointed. Their sweet tea is on point and very good; however, the paper straw kind of kills the whole experience.
