We love it. They cater to our allergies and are so friendly. Love the new decor and the warmth of the place. More

Service was prompt and friendly. Nacho's (once again) were delicious. This time we had the chicken on them. I still prefer the beef with the nacho's but we wanted to give this option a try. Can't lose either way. One kid had a burger, the other had pizza. Fresh cut fries made the meal even better. My wife had the... More

What a treat to be served home-made comfort food! My husband and I rarely eat out as we usually leave the restaurant feeling we could have made the meal ourselves as good as the restaurant and for less cost. So it was great to find a restaurant that didn't leave us feeling this way. D&S Southern Comfort BBQ was a... More

One would think that a vegetarian should not go to a restaurant that specializes in barbecue but the staff of D&S are wonderfully accomodating. The fish & chips are the best I have had. There are excellent salads, quesadillas, pastas and salmon. The best feature is the atmosphere of being a nearby establishment that caters to snowmobilers, large groups, lunch... More

Went back eexpecting an awesome experience. Totally disappointed! Servers were too busy chatting amongst themselves and what looked like the chef at the bar. She was out there the whole time we were in there. Who was cooking the subparagraph food we received?? We took the long drive out from Canada and well we will be going to one of... More

After reading a few reviews we decided to take our family here for dinner, what a mistake. The atmosphere is nothing like I expected-felt like a disorganized diner. The service was nothing to be desired. Our food was ok at best. Overall disappointing experience considering we try to eat out within our community. More

I grew up in Carlsbad Springs, and D&S is located right in the heart of the little town. The building has gone from a strip club, to cowboy bar to BBQ, and for sure that's an improvement! I'd love to see them makeover the insides, it does look new, but to attract more customers it would do well with some... More

I have had a craving for ribs for quite some time. I'm not a big rib eater but for some reason, I have been wanting some for a few months now. Other than the chain restaurants, there are not too many ribs places in Ottawa. After some googling, found this restaurant. It's a 20-minute drive from where I work so... More

This is the clossest you can get to Southern BBQ...! Great food, excellent "smoke". Perfect ribs. More
