City Barbeque

Katie at City BBQ was amazing! She provided such great customer service and made the whole experience even better. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was exactly right with our order. It’s always nice when someone goes the extra mile to make customers feel welcome, and Katie definitely did that. Because of her, I’ll definitely be coming back to this location again. Highly recommend!

Did Thanksgiving take out dinner, just a breast and mashed potatoes. Turkey was delicious and moist, instructions for reheating not included but easy to find online. More than enough potatoes for 6 people, including gravy. Easy to order, pickup was a touch chaotic, but ready on time and a nice bonus of some sandwich rolls. Will be ordering again for Christmas since I can't cook a turkey for some reason. I will be ordering more sides this time too!

I had to request moist brisket for my sandwich as the lean was very dry and overcooked. No bend or easy pull. Good flavor otherwise. The fried smoked wings were overseasoned and dry. We went after the lunch rush on a Thursday afternoon around 2:15.

Review for Chelsea ★★★★★ Had a great visit at City Barbecue in Durham. Chelsea was very kind and helpful, especially when we were deciding on desserts. She explained the options clearly and gave great recommendations. Service was quick, the food was excellent, and the whole team seemed friendly and welcoming. Always nice to see people who care about making sure guests have a good experience.

Brisket before business. This fast-casual BBQ spot offers meals of all sizes. Right after landing at RDU and grabbing a rental car, my coworker and I headed straight to City BBQ for lunch. Priorities! I got the 'Sampler: 2 Meats, 2 Sides, Texas Toast' with my choices of 18-Hour Brisket (smoky, tender, yummy) and Pulled Pork (bland without sauce). Thankfully, the vinegar-based Swine Wine sauce from the sauce bar saved the day. The Cornbread was okay and too smooth for me (I like crumbs and crustiness), but the Collard Greens were delicious! NOTES/TIPS: **Super friendly, patient, helpful, fast service. **Huge space, lots of tables. Easy parking in their own lot. **The sauce bar (~8 sauces) deserves a medal. Swine Wine carried this mission.
