    Was so excited to hear of a new barbecue place coming to the area. Tried Dean's for the first time this evening for carry out.We ordered the pulled pork sandwich, and brisket sandwich both of which were incredibly dry and tough. The fries were extremely cold and the macaroni and cheese very bland. The wings were just okay. We threw away 85% of the food. Very disappointing experience.

    Great atmosphere. The food was delish. Small with only one server, sat at bar . Will definitely go back. Try the sweet potato appetizer.

    Ordered the ribs. Brisket, pulled pork sandwich, loaded potatoes and greens with bacon. It was for my husband’s birthday meal ordered it to go, so we didn’t have to go out as he works long hours and finally he just wanted to relax at home. It all looked amazing and from the way he inhaled the sandwich Mo said how good it was I’m pleased. Good sized servings even though it was for to go. They were friendly and it was a great experience. I’m allergic to just about everything so going out to eat and watching others eat isn’t really fun for them or me. So being able to order good meals to go Is awesome. Adding them to our list!

    Whenever I'm in town, Deans BBQ is a must do! Everything I've had in my 10 or so visits has been delicious! If you like dessert, I'd recommend the bread pudding. Oh man, it makes me want to go right now!

    The sweet potato appetizer, portobello appetizer, pulled pork sandwich, and mac n cheese are delicious! The service is amazing and the prices are very fair. Amazing place. Please stay.

    This is the best bbq and sides I have ever experienced. Besides my own. Everything spot on I had brisket and greens. My lady had salad and cheese jalapeno grits. You can see the kitchen. That chef knows his soul food. Service excellent. Music soft nice old blues. Folks find it. Not be disappointed. Terry

    Tucked into a strip of generic eateries which include Pizza Hut and Beef O' Brady's is a small island of culinary magnificence. I had to prod my significant other into going there because he thought it was your usual barbecue joint. I am new to the area and found it on a whim through a Google search. The reviews were very good and so I thought that it would be worth a try. I don't often go out to eat as I am a chef in my own right but, after eating here I know I'm only on the level of SpongeBob in comparison to the excellence that has been achieved at Dean's. The chef who developed these recipes has taken normal country food and turned it into an intoxicating flavor tornado. Each bite was a delight of flavor explosion! From the delicate and delightful soup and the crispy, yet cakey savoriness of the cornbread/pulled pork/slaw appetizer! My love got the pulled pork sandwich and I had the burnt ends both had the best French fries we have ever tasted. The ketchup provided could have been thrown from the table in my opinion because I would have never let it's inferior quality of ordinary to have come in contact with the thin, crispy, perfectly flavored potato delights that mere mortals call French fries. The burnt ends were so tender and juicy they practically melted in my mouth. The sandwich my love had was hearty, delicate, robust and juicy beyond belief. We got a to go order of the pulled pork Mac and cheese and even though we were stuffed to the absolute bursting point we each had to delight in a bite of the creaminess, richest, most decadent pasta excellence either of us had ever tasted. The unique and flavorful cocktails were both imaginative and delicious while simultaneously being well infused with a generous amount of alcohol. Out waitress, Jentry with a J 😉 was so welcoming, sweet, enthusiastic and efficient. The tiny place was packed full house and with excellent reason and yet the well trained staff seemed at ease and in their element. I feel like I've been to see Led Zeppelin in a small venue before they were famous! I'm excited to see what heights and creations the chef who developed these fine recipes will do in the future! Using care, excellent ingredients and a staff that are on point have made this place head and shoulders above it's peers and I am in awe and feel privileged to have gotten to experience what true passion looks and tastes like. A standing ovation from my humble self because I am soon envious of that level of talent! 🥰

    BYOK (bring your own ketchup) 🤣 if you ask for ketchup they give you this strange red applesauce stuff that we were absolutely not fans of lol. Did not pair nicely with fries. Otherwise, the food was good!! My husband got a burger and I got the chicken sandwich. I tried both of them and would definitely recommend the burger, it was super good and really tender but the chicken was also good! Waiter was very friendly and did fine! Cute place, would recommend other than the ketchup. Haha.
