Editorial Review for Smokin' Woody's Barbeque – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Nostalgic photos and whimsical tchotchkes crowd the walls and shelves in this comfortable room; seating is available at a handful of tables and on a back patio. The menu highlights simple barbecue classics like ribs (half or full slab), brisket and jumbo turkey legs, plus sandwiches, salads and sides. A sure bet is the pulled pork sandwich: big shreds of meat in a sweet sauce served with baby red potatoes and slaw.

New management, recently re-opened, and it's awesome. Really outstanding BBQ. The guys there a VERY nice and prompt. I never got a chance to try this place under the previous ownership, but didn't see any of the negative points other people seem to have commented on. I'm assuming that had to have been the "old" place. I'll definitely be going back.
Pros: service, food quality

I love smoking Woody's for their BBQ. They absolutely know what they are doing when it comes to BBQ. I give them a 10 for great tasting food. But I can't get over the fact that every time I go there or order in, I receive terrible service. Normally customer service isn't a big thing with me, but they are starting to annoy me. Honestly, the only reason why I continue to eat there is because my significant other begs me. Last time I called in an order they didn't tell me they were out of chicken until I went to go pick it up. Hello! Why didn't they let me know right away or call me back? On top of that they forgot to put my dessert in my bag. Another time I called in for delivery, which took 2 hours, and they forgot a pulled pork sandwich and completely messed up my meal. I ordered a smoked turkey breast entree', and when I opened the box there was just deli meat in it. I don't understand what they thought I said or if that was a joke. When I called them to let them know the girl told me they were closing the kitchen and offered me a certificate. Ridiculous. Clearly the owner isn't there all the time and the staff doesn't care. They also had a waitress there who had extremely long green nails with dice and other things glues on to them. She's no longer there, but it really grossed me out when she offered to wrap my food up for me. Needless to say, I didn't take it home with me.
Pros: great BBQ
Cons: Worst customer service I've ever had
