Venango Barbecue Restaurant: Reviews & Ratings
Never a disappointment and always worth the trip! Everything is amazing but my favorite is the #10 Beef short ribs w/rice!
I didn't eat there yet. But my cousin did and said it was amazing. N I'll go to it very soon. Since it's closed on Sundays, I have to wait until Monday.
Had the chicken thighs. If you like thighs, this is your place. Bonus, everything else is damn good. Prices are fair.
Food is always good , per usual! I've been going there for almost 12 years and never had to wait 30min for my food! I totally respect it though, they are jumping now lol The wait was worth it and I'll keep going again and again!
They don't answer the phone most of the time but it's well worth going to order in person ! So good, consistent and huge platters for cheap!
So good the chicken gives that grilled char boiled tasted I always get a #9 or #4-1. The steak is sooo tender be sure to get BBQ on everything all the time.

This place is great. I always get the #1 with rice. Chicken is always cooked perfectly. Great people working behind the counter. Generous portion and a good price- can't beat it
