Review: Five Star BBQ & Catering Company

I first learned about Five Star BBQ & Catering Company from my mother-in-law. The owner lived in the same neighborhood as my husband and his family growing up and we were all itching to get to his new restaurant a few years ago. My husband and I lived very, very close to it at the time and so we went often. When we moved, we haven’t been back since and when I went to visit again last week, I remembered why we went so often and now regret spending so much time away from Five Star!

The restaurant is on Geneva Road in this old white house. As I walk in, I love the feel of it … fireplace, old walls yet redone … it’s all fantastic. Plus, the smell … oh, the smell. It’s delightful.

I tried the Dave Anderson sandwich and it was amazing. I am pretty sure other than my favorite Club Sandwich, I have never tasted a better sandwich in my life. I had a side of mashed potatoes which are seasoned and yummy and a side of mac & cheese which is no normal mac & cheese. I love almost all mac & cheeses but this one is amazing with how creamy it is.

One thing I absolutely love about Five Star BBQ is their sauce selection. I don’t love extra sauces on my food and can’t stand it when a restaurant thinks I know what sauce will be best on my sandwich … especially when it’s 1/2 inch thick. But Five Star BBQ doesn’t do that to you. They have a whole little refrigerator of sauces that you can choose from to meet all of your sauce needs.

Drinks are another thing I am really picky about when I go out to eat. I usually just drink water but if I want something to tingle my taste buds and make my insides fizzle, I want it to be worth it. Five Star BBQ has the option of making Italian Sodas which … mmm. They’re fantastic and perfect!
