Smoked On High BBQ

Perhaps the best BBQ I've ever had. Mac and cheese and corn bread are amazing. Brisket is to die for. Pickles and onions are the perfect cleansers. Simply amazing food.

I really like BBQ meat. The brisket here was the best I've ever eaten and I've had a lot. It was very flavorful and moist. Very good place. I'm glad someone recommended it to me. More...

My husband and I drove in from Chicago on a Saturday evening and had read great things. On our way in, another couple told us, “Good luck! ” because they’d already sold out of the ribs and brisket. But we went to the counter anyway and snagged one of the last orders of chicken dipped in the sweet whiskey sauce and two pork sandwiches. The food did NOT disappoint!! Loved the meats and also really dug the “max and cheese” and collard greens. The cornbread was perfectly sweetened, but would’ve loved if it were slightly warmed. Will definitely return when we’re back in Columbus. Great, quaint and cozy atmosphere - and wonderful service. (Alex and Adam were awesome. Since we were the last people inside, we got to take some of their leftovers home with us. GREAT service move!) More...

Man, this was great top to bottom. I've now tried both the sweet and the spicy sauce. (Sweet is good, but spicy wins!) And the meat is ridiculous and melt in your mouth. The cornbread is sweet and just the right amount of moist. Hell, even the buns rule. And don't get me started on that mac & cheese...gooey and flavorful. I've heard that some complain about the seasonings that are added. I am not one of those. Bring it on!The pork is good, but do the brisket. It's worth the extra few bucks. More...

Smoked is a unique and enjoyable experience from the moment you approach the old little house til you step back off the yard to the sidewalk. The BBQ is superb and provided completely different flavor tones than what this Carolina boy is used to, and I've never had mac&cheese the way they do it (wish I had the recipe). Portions are large.The owner and staff are friendly like you've known them for years, and just as helpful in serving & advising. I will be back over and over again. More...

The food was great the only problem that I had was when I ordered from door dash they delivered with sauce on meat and was 16 bucks and sides came with it. But when I went in to order they said sides where separate and they gave me cups of sauce instead of pouring on ribs.
But the food is good More...

It was really hard to find, since it's hidden by the buildings on either side, and the signage was hard to see because of the cars parked on the street. However, once we turned around and found it, the food was so worth it! Their pulled pork sandwiches are great, as was the mac n cheese (be prepared that there's herbs in it - that's what makes it so good, but if you want just plain mac n cheese, this isn't the mac for you). The cornbread was eh - not the greatest, not the worst I've ever had. They have three sauce options, none of which I personally liked - but I'm not really a sweet n savory person, nor can I tolerate the level of spiciness that "The Pucker" had. So your mileage may vary on the sauces.
The prices were reasonable, and I would definitely go there again! More...

Very good service, helpful to make my selection as it was my first but definitely not my last visit. BBQ was amazing!! The Whiskey BBQ sauce was my favorite, Ribs were meaty and cooked to perfection.

This is a unique little place. It's an old house that has been truned into a restaurant. The food is very good and the sauces we're excellent. The price isn't cheap, but it is similar to other BBQ joints. There is a fair amount of outside seating that let's you enjoy your food in the fresh air. More...

Amazing brisket and sides!! Reasonably priced and the staff was friendly and helpful in navigating the menu. Have 3 homemade sauces that are also right on point. You'll think you're down south!!!

One of my favorite places in Columbus. Always a happy costumer! If you have not been, you are missing out!

The brisket is incredible. Just perfect. Huge smoky taste. Great crust and the fat is rendered just enough to be perfectly buttery and silky smooth. I only had the ribs once but the rack I had was a bit tough to chew. More...

Some of the best bbq I've had in Columbus in a long time. The pulled pork was quite flavorful. And I like their version of a Carolina bbq sauce, even with it being a little on the sweet side.

It's a small, no frills and brightly lit. More...

Brisket was juicy with a good bark.
Slaw was creamy, with a nice peppery finish.
Cornbread was actually a corn muffin, but warm and moist.
Pucker Sauce was a little too spicy, overpowering the flavor of the meat. Sweet Whiskey BBQ sauce was good.
Gator Sauce was great.
Will definitely visit again to try the pork! More...

This place is amazing. I was skeptical when I saw 4.8 stars. I was anticipated overrated hipster food like HTC, but this place deserves 5/5 for sure. I got the brisket with gator sauce and Mac and cheese. The brisket is moist and melts in your mouth. The Mac and cheese definitely uses real cheese. They also have a moderate selection of craft beer. Highly recommend. More...

heard there was a new BBQ place in Cbus so we had to check it out. So glad we did! The brisket and the pork were delicious. Moist and smoked to perfection. They don't put their sauce on it, which I think is fantastic. You have 3 choices of sauce. The sweet whiskey was very tasty. The Victorian home is really cool. I loved the way they incorporated the old with the new in their decor. One of the best parts of our dinner was that I got to drink a Lone Star beer. I've never been able to find it Ohio. Great BBQ and great beer! It's a definite must try if you love BBQ! More...

With the amount of food, the price is great. The brisket and pork was moist and full of flavour. The bread integrity was on point . The sauces were delicious. And the employees were friendly and helpful. Being from out of state, I would definitely recommend this place to others. More...

Best BBQ I've ever had! They really know what they're going. Both Sweet Whiskey sauce and Gator sauce were amazing, pulled pork was tender, full of flavor and overall amazing. The coleslaw was just perfect - not too much mayo, colorful and seasoned perfectly! The max n cheese tho - blew my mind away.... best Mac n Cheese in town, hands down. Trust me, I eat out for a living.... try them out, you won't regret it! More...

A backyard BBQ feeling place is a very welcome and needed addition to German Village and Max has created a really fun establishment out of a super old, historic house that used to be a law firm before it. But the best part of my first visit was the perfectly smoked brisket. I got the platter with the Mac and coleslaw and tried all sauces with the traditional KC style sweet and spicy being my favorite. For a quick hitting lunch the sandwiches are reasonable and for dinner springing for the platter is still on par with what you'd expect for a solid ass BBQ experience. And they have craft beer cans, a nice bonus. Overall the service was great, and will be back for the ribs. More...
