Bandana’s Bar-B-Q

Great service… thanks Jeff! Flavor of food was awesome. Only thing that would make this place a favorite is portion size. Me and my two guests left still hungry. Price was reasonable… I would pay more for bigger portion. Again great flavor.

The best BBQ on this side if the river.
Try the dinner sized beef brisket, mix the coleslaw in and some sweet and smokey sauce. Stir it all together and mop it up with the bread!

Always good when you want delicious BBQ but don’t want to trek across the river. Great brisket and pulled pork. Sides are delicious as well. When I don’t feel like sitting inside I opt for carry-​out which is always efficient and hot. The sauces for sale are great too! I’m glad I live close!

This is a blue collar lunch joint in my opinion. The BBQ is average for the area but they are quick during the lunch rush and they have great specials/​prices. This is a typical place we have going away lunches at so I am familiar with the place. Their sweet tea is not homemade but their BBQ sauce is. They have several flavors but I prefer sweet and sassy. I like their brisket and sausage but not much else on the menu. Don’t get me wrong, I will go eat at Bandanas right now, but it is not the best BBQ in the STL area.

The BBQ entrée was superb compared a lot of other BBQ places I have visited in other states. This is far the best and freshest BBQ chicken I ever had. I appreciate variety of BBQ sauce that they offered. The best one I liked so far was the Chicago BBQ sauce. The portions were great! My lunch portion size was eqivalent to dinner size elsewhere. Bandanas is quite generous! The only drawback on this place was that they took quite a long time bringing out our order — (Evening of 11÷8÷2013). Other than that I was quite happy with my dinner!

Bandanas is some pretty good BBQ. They have options as far as what kinda BBQ sauce you want and they have fried okra. Since Big Mamas on NBW & Main closed I have found myself going to Bandanas more often than I used to. Its a good atmosphere and the people there are ALWAYS friendly. Last time we went there we were the jackasses that showed up 15 mins before the closed, when we turned around to leave the manager (Forget her name) told us it was not a problem at all and to come on in. We were served, not rushed and made to feel very welcome, And the food was still up to par. The whole experience made us feel as if it were the middle of the day NOT 15 mins before they closed… Kudos

Bandana’s is just ok in my book. Usually pretty good, but meat can be a little dry sometimes. I always end up spending way more than I expect. but order the same thing everytime.
The service is friendly.

It’s a quiet Tuesday night and my mom and I pull in to Bandana’s. This place is way bigger than it looks. Typical western theme and instantly smells of BBQ smoke yummm! Appropriately decorated with a western theme, duh. The mom and I each had the pick 3 meat combo so that we could take some meat back to my carnivorous father. Ribs = excellent. Chicken = excellent. Sausage = spicy and tasty. Garlic bread = fab. Baked beans = toot-​a-​licious! Pulled pork = smoky succulence. And the cole slaw… oh geez cole slaw! Def my fave! It’s a may based, crunchy, salady, bite of BBQ heaven. Really great sweet tea but I can’t handle the cavity inducing sweetness so I ordered it mixed with unsweetened. Good service. Good people watching. Oh gosh, the sauces… almost forgot! Yummmmy! My mom even bought bottles of the Chicago sweet and kc something or other. Best thing also… is they give you packets to take with you if you have leftovers! Awesome. Their spicy bbq sauce is also good mixed with the Chicago sweet.
Ps. I know it’s a chain. Get over it.

A great staple of a restaurant. Their fried okra is delicious. I haven’t had much complaint here except the last time I went the beef was gristly, but that has never happened before so I suspect it was a fluke.

My dad, wife, and I love bandanas. Their assortment of sauces makes every meal an experience. I can’t recommend them enough.

It’s been several weeks since our trip to Bandanas. We all really enjoyed our food. The kids meals were huge, and my husband and I shared a bbq pork plate which was really good. We had fried okra as a side item and it was boring as it gets. However, the service was good… we might go back.
