"My husband and I had a very delicious dinner last night. We shared the meat candy burnt ends and mama's fried chicken sandwich with a side of fries. Both the sandwiches were phenomenal and the fries were a generous portion. One of the reasons we came was because butcher bar is on Rakuten and Toast (collective hospitality). Both are an incentive seeing as how there are so many restaurants in the area. Keep up the great work and see you soon!"

"Coming back 4 years later after an initial stellar review, I was disappointed with some of my choices. What was good: Burnt Ends: No wonder they are award winning!! They packed with immense flavor and tenderness. This was by far the best meat of the 3. Pork ribs: They were fall off the bone and the sauce was delicious. They were flavored thoroughly. Brussel Sprouts: whoa these were out of this world good! The crunch was mastered and the glaze packed it with dynamic flavor. The Bad: Pork belly: This was the most disappointing, dry bits, not much flavor Corn bread: just bland, dry, not worth consuming Corn: it felt like it was just cooked and slathered with some mayo and tajin seasoning but there wasn't any flavor to it Mac n cheese: nothing to write home to Review from 2021: I lived in the Midwest for 8 years and have been on a quest to find some decent BBQ and Butcher Bar delivered!! First our cocktails were phenomenal- margaritas and lemonade was amazing. I haven't had cocktails these enjoyable in a while. I ordered the porky platter. It was enough to take home for seconds! The ribs were fall off the bone, juicy, finger licking good!!! Next was the pulled pork which was wonderfully seasoned and also moist. The pork belly was just okay. The corn bread pieces were moist and a good compliment to the dish. Standard cole slaw. The brussel sprouts with bacon were grilled to a nice crisp exterior, uneven salting!! But the bacon gave it a nice rich taste. I need to come back STAT!! Service was pretty bad for the outdoor dining, maybe they were busy inside!"

"Everything is amazingly good, even the pickle is salty to perfection. All the meats were juicy and flavorful, and the servers are very attentive"

"This is my favorite type of restaurant in the U.S. It reminded me of ‘Green Street Smoked Meats’ in Chicago, and I was satisfied not only with the taste but also with the price and portion size."

"Overall, the food was ok. There were some winners and some losers. The burnt ends were pretty good, the fat well rendered, the brisket was too lean for my taste, and the pork belly was a disappointment. It was cut so thin that it was hard and dry. I was disappointed that the cornbread has gotten way smaller or maybe they just gave less than they used to since it was one of the things we enjoyed. The Brussel sprouts and queso street corn were both really delicious. The cheese fries were super disappointing as the fries were not fresh cut and desperately needed some color. Our server was nice but not to be found when we needed him given it was a quiet weekday and there was only one other table there. I do think it was only him and the cook there at that time so I didn’t make a big deal of it."
