We've been talking about trying Outlaws for a long time, and finally have been twice in the past couple of months. The food is excellent - great ribs, terrific burgers, my favorite sweet potato fries, and the BEST onion rings. It's too bad the service doesn't match the food. The first time we went, my burger wasn't right, and they... More

We have been eating at this restaurant since before they became a real restaurant. Used to be a take out only location in Columbia. The food is always excellent. This last time I had the brisket. I have a hard time not ordering the chicken or the steak. My husband loves thier burgers. The brisket was great. I had enough... More

The waitress acted like it was a real bother to have to wait on us and was not friendly at all. This little town and restaurant depends on tourists coming through it and they would be wise to be friendlier to the people they are serving. Everything felt greasy..I had to hold the BBQ bottle with a napkin because it... More

Just dumpy, dirty and dark. Needs updating and fast. The food was so-so and the service below average. More

The service was horrible. The server gave us our drinks and didn't come back until 15 minutes to take our food order. Food took another 30 minutes. My tri-tip was dry and flavorless. My wife enjoyed the ribs. They might have been shorthanded, but I would definitely try somewhere else next time I'm driving through Sonora. More

We'd read that this restaurant was a good barbecue place, so we decided to try it. My husband ordered ribs and I ordered a steak with grilled mushrooms on top. Both the ribs and steak came out from the kitchen barely warm. The mushrooms on top of my steak were completely cold. We've never been served cold meat before so... More

I came in last night with a group of girlfriends. We could smell the BBQ from down the road and HAD to come in and try it. I ordered a 1/2lb burger with swiss cheese and sauteed garlic mishrooms and it was to die for!! The meat they use for their burgers is a blend of kobe and angus with... More
