Midwood Smokehouse Of Ballantyne Llc

We were in the area and decided to stop by. I've heard really good things about this chain and a wanted to try it for myself. We were seated right away, the place was not too busy. Our server took our order, I ordered the well fed with a choice of 4 proteins (half ribs, double brisket, burnt ends) the sides (Mac n cheese, baked beans) 5/10 The ribs I did ask for them to not be sauced but they were TOUGH.. I did not enjoy them at all, the burnt ends and brisket were okay. The Mac n cheese was so chewy and hard I had to ask if I could replace it with another side and got coleslaw I should have ordered another side of baked beans instead because they were really good it also came with hushpuppies and pickles. My son ordered the chicken tenders off the kids menu 3/10 He complained about how the tenders were hurting his teeth and mouth as he was eating. They were fried so hard which made them rock hard... He literally sat there and pealed the crust off in order to enjoy them.. I hated that. Along with his tenders he ordered fresh fruit The fruit did look fresh and he enjoyed them. What I thought was so weird is not to long after we were served our food our server brought out my check. I made a comment that I wasn't ready for the check yet because we were going to order dessert.... I ordered a small banana pudding and my son wanted ice cream but they only had vanilla flavored ice cream, no chocolate. So, he opted to just have some of my pudding. But what a bummer, the menu should def specify that they only offer vanilla ice cream so the kids know ahead of time. I did notice that the reviews indicate that midwood is good based on which one you go to, but why would that be the case? If all the locations serve the same thing, shouldn't it be consistent??Overall Happy I got to try them out, but I'll stick to the smoke pit for bbq, they just get it right there.

We stopped in here with a group for dinner. This is a great local barbeque smokehouse chain. The food here was fantastic!Among our group we had burnt tips, half barbecue chicken, and dry rub ribs. All of these were excellent. They had all of the different barbeque sauces. You must try them all!The service here was very good. The food came out hot and the presentation was good. Most importantly the food was very tasty. The waiter was very attentive.If you are in the area, stop in and bring your appetite!

Good was very tasty and service was great. The place was very busy but we had made a reservation and were sat right on arrival. The dining room is very large and there is lots of seating and more seating at the bar. We chose to share the corn bread skillet and this was very good. For dinner I got the half chicken and it was so filling and came with two sides. I got the Mac and cheese and broccoli and they were so good. The hush puppies were good as well. Surprisingly good bbq food for a strip mall.

This place is one one my favorites in the Charlotte area. I went to other locations and this one is by far the best in terms of ambiance, food qualities and service. Highly recommend the tacos and mixed brisket. Also, their Midwood chopped salad is really good. Yes the place is pricy but definitely worth it.Parking: Plenty of parking

I was welcomed by the lovely staff and sat at the bar. The bartender offered options as it was my first time. An overall great atmosphere. Moist brisket, delicious burnt ends and hush puppies, the cheese/jalapeno sausage was amazing and the stewed beans was a knockout. Definitely recommend if you are in the area!Food: 5/5
