Blue Dog BBQ Company has garnered rave reviews thus far, with a five-star rating out of eight reviews on Yelp.
Harris L., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on Oct. 25, wrote, “This is an excellent new restaurant. We both had the two-meat combo. I had the ribs, pulled chicken, mac and cheese and fries. The other order was ribs, sausage, corn bread and mac and cheese. The highlight was the ribs; it was lots of meat and a really good sauce. ”
Yelper Kristin W. added, “The ribs were delicious and fell right off the bone. The fried pickles came highly recommended and did not disappoint. The cornbread, drizzled in honey, was mouth-watering.”
