Dave's Bbq

Got Dave’s Barbecue, St.marys, all I can say is wow!! Went thru drive through and got 1/2 chicken dinner (no chips) and ordered a fried bologna sandwich with NO bologna!! Spent 22 dollars, which I had to add the total amount for the employee cause he couldn’t add 14 + 8….????. So people, please check ur order before you pull out of the place. We would have went back, but we live 40 minutes from the place, which I will never go back there .

I was blessed to be on the way home from Alma, Michigan to Mason, Ohio and stopped by Dave’s! The meats were tender, beautifully smoked, and the sauce was phenomenal! Definitely worth going out of your way or having for catering! Keep up the great work, fellas! God bless!

Great ribs, great fries, beans are awesome and the brisket was juicy. My kids had the pulled pork and loved it!

1st time eating from there today and it was delicious!! The onion rings were crispy and the tenderloin was thick!! I can hold my own when it comes to eating food..lol but I couldn't eat it all. I'll be back for sure!

Gave em 2 stars because we didn’t “hate” this place. (I DO hate leaving bad reviews, but they’re left to help, right?) But, read on. We’re travel for work & are new to the area, and both cook well-including wood-fire bbq, with our own rubs, with or without homemade sauce. The meat flavor should shine. One person was getting take out before us, so being busy wasn’t an issue. We ordered a rack of ribs, an order of brisket, and a half chicken. Ironically, the chicken was repeated back to us, to which we confirmed. $58+. Decent price, if the food is. After the 30min ride back to the camper, this is what we got (not included in pic was 3 small bags of chips). Not included in the bag was 1/2 chicken. Before we drove away, I even went back to add to the tip jar, nobody said “hey, you forgot something”, like they did with the local, before us. Shame on me for thinking I didn’t need to check the order. Then, there’s the food. It was..ok. Didn’t seem like there was much prep work done. No flavor-even just salt & pepper accents the flavor of the meats. As does the wood. There was no tasty smoke ring. With sauce, and some of the crispy fat, the brisket was ok. The vinegar was heavy in the beans, too. The ribs were tough, the membrane was still there, and the edges were crusty & hard. Not even sauce helped them. Most got tossed. The slaw wasn’t my husband’s fave (a matter of opinion-KFC rules) but I eat this kind, though the cabbage was soggy. Being hungry, we ate most of what we left with. Maybe we caught them on a bad day, but for the price, missing chicken & quality, we’ll try somewhere else, till we get a new grill.
