About Carolina Barbecue

If you’re looking for a laid-back spot where smoke, flavor, and comfort collide, let me introduce you to Carolina Barbecue Restaurant, a local barbecue joint sitting right at 7119-A Lone Oak Rd in Spartanburg, South Carolina. This place is all about keeping barbecue simple, satisfying, and deeply rooted in Southern tradition. From the moment you hear the name Carolina Barbecue, you already know what kind of experience to expect-slow-cooked meats, bold seasoning, and that unmistakable aroma that pulls you in before you even reach the door.

What really stands out here is the easygoing barbecue restaurant vibe. It’s the kind of place where you can swing by for a quick bite during a busy day or settle in for a relaxed dine-in meal without any pressure. The menu leans heavily into comfort food, which makes sense because barbecue is supposed to feel familiar and filling, not fussy. Small plates are available if you want to sample a few flavors, and everything is prepared with that homestyle touch locals appreciate.

Even the little details add to the experience. A cup of coffee pairs surprisingly well with smoky comfort food, especially when you’re stopping by earlier in the day.

Reviews

This place is so good. I work here out of town and have ordered here 3 times already. So good.

I love Barbecue and everything about it but even with that, this place was outstanding. My only regret is not eating more. I learned a few years ago that I love mustard-based barbecue sauce and they don’t insist on saucing up your food first. You can taste the smoke and add as much sauce as you like to give it your version of perfection. There was a place in South Carolina I loved that closed so this may, as they are awarded, be the best barbecue in the state. I absolutely believe them to be. I can’t imagine the flavor could be better and at this high of a level, anyone close to them would simply be splitting hairs as to who is better.

I've ordered takeout from this location a few times. The food is fantastic. The brisket and pulled pork are among some of the best I've ever had. Recently I ordered mac and cheese and banana pudding. It was close to closing one night and the mac and cheese was not good. Normally it is. I just learned not to order late as you get the remnants and it leaves a lot to be desired. I'm still giving five stars because the good experiences substantially outweigh the one bad one.

I may just have to move to Spartanburg! This place has some fantastic food y'all! The ribs are really good with no sauce needed. The hush puppies, fried squash, mac and cheese, and onion rings are all made in house (and you can tell because they are all really tasty). Trust me when I tell you that will not regret trying this place. YUM!

Food was quite tasty. Servers were really friendly and on the ball. Got a combo plate and practically had to roll myself out of the building I was so full. Mac 'n cheese was meh, but everything else was really quite good.
