Otto’s Smokehouse

Nice little BBQ place! Parking was difficult to find. We ended up parking on Lake City a block away. We ordered ribs, pulled pork, tots and potato salad. The meats were good. Flavorful and moist with dry rub. Great assortment of delicious sauces served on the side. I particularly liked the Carolina gold bbq sauce. The ribs came with these great slightly spicy pickled cucumber slices and white bread. I didn't love for the potato salad I ordered. It was runny because of too much mayo and mustard. It did have yummy crunchy celery/onion with the potatoes. Tots were standard deep fried and came with "fry sauce"- yum. Staff were friendly and helpful. The lighting was low in the dining area and all of the tables had neat napkin holders.

Ordered a half pound brisket and a half pound pulled pork with a side of French fries to go by phone. Roughly 15 minutes have elapsed between the phone call and arrival at the restaurant to pick up my phone-in order, the food was ready and paying was a breeze. The food was enough for two adults and a small child with a healthy appetite. The sauces are not mixed in with meat, you can choose what sauce to take and pour them yourself in to-go mini cups. There's several sauce options to choose from. The brisket and pulled pork were flavorful and tender, and we had it with the original and medium spicy sauces mixed in. The fries were a disappointment though, it was limp and soggy when I got home 10 minutes after leaving the restaurant. So if you are ordering to go, might want to pass on adding the fries.

Love this place. My work place moved here recently and I was looking for new lunch time place. This place has great atmosphere and the portions are awesome. I have had the cheeseburger and today I had the special which is a Reuben. They are both amazing. The staff is very helpful and give good recommendations on what sauces go best with your meals. This is my new spot.

Wow. I met this guy months ago when he was building the joint and promised I’d come eat, but haven’t until tonight. I realized I have been missing out! All of the meats were tender, flavorful, not too dry, and cooked to perfection- from their brisket (which I’m usually not a fan of) to the wings and the ribs and the ham and the pulled pork. Awesome homemade sauces, pretty good sides and crispy fries. I do things pretty damn good at home, but when you want to go out and have some good BBQ, forget the other places! This place is legit!

I've tried quite a few things on the menu now. The food here is incredible no matter what you pick. I've tried the brisket, ribs, Mac and cheese, collard greens, potato salad, pickles, and wings. It's all amazing. The best crispy chicken sandwich I've ever had...and with lots of chicken (see picture).

Been here a few times. Tried the pulled pork, brisket and the burger. Pork is amazing. Tender and juicy with a nice bark on it. The brisket is smokey and delicious. The burger is damn good too. Fries are cooked to perfection and seasoned well but I’ll confess the mac and cheese is my favorite side. Something that I’ve noticed with every time I go something has been improved in some way. Added seasoned breadcrumbs to the mac for instance. I honestly can’t recommend this place enough. 10/10
