Customer Reviews
Came because I was told about this place by my sons girlfriend and she got my taste buds flowing. You come in and one side has tables and the other side of restaurant has booths. Very nice menu and we decided to get the sampler which comes with barbeque chicken, pulled pork, brisket, ribs, 3 sides which we got mac n cheese, collard greens,sweet potatoes and corn bread( Another dry item). You order up front and they bring it to you. This is a self serve restaurant. Was a nice amount of food for 2 people. I inquired about the ingredients because of my allergies and the worker had no problem going through it with me. To me there was just enough seasoning but for my daughter there wasn't enough. The brisket was a tad dry but all the other meats weren't bad. All the sides were good and even the
Decent BBQ for our area. I ordered a 2 meat combo.I ordered brisket, and burnt ends. I couldn't tell the which one was what though. (I kind of thought burnt ends were burnt to sort of melt the fat away. Both seemed pretty fatty.) But I am NOT a BBQ expert. So try it for yourself. OH YEAH... they have about 5 or 6 different BBQ sauces you can order. I tried peach today. It was quite good!
I came to Groton from Kansas City for business. I was craving barbecue and Chester’s was down the street from my hotel. I had a Chiefs fleece on and as soon as I walked in, the owner Skip, struck up a conversation with me about the Chiefs. It turns out that he lived in Kansas City for 14 years. Very nice guy and very good conversation about my hometown of Kansas City. I tried the brisket, burnt ends, ribs, chili, collard greens and cornbread. It was all really good! The sweet barbecue sauce reminded me of Kansas City barbecue, which has of course, the best barbecue in the world. This barbecue reminded me of Kansas City’s barbecue. As I stated, it was very good and I will definitely go back if I’m ever back in Groton. Thanks Skip!
My husband and I shared the four meat special! It's the first time we've been here in years and let me just say it is one of the best meals that we had for a value and taste. We had sides of chili, cornbread, sweet potatoes, and greens. We loved it and we will be back again! My husband's favorite was the brisket, and the chicken was exactly what I was craving and not dry at all! Thank you. Keep putting your love and good flavor into it. I always judge a restaurant by if I get sick afterwards, sorry sensitive stomach. And did great.
