I liked the portion sizes, the difference sauces that was offered was remarkable, the macaroni was excellent and who would've know sweet cornbread could set off some BBQ. There was nothing disliked about this choice. P.S. the Saratoga chips were wonderful, they tasted like a higher brand of Grippos potato chips

This is a family favorite! We love eating a healthy, delicious meal, especially when it's served up with a smile and even a prayer from Jim Emig himself. This restaurant began as a hobby and turned into a successful business. The secret is the mouth-watering food and the personal attention guests receive. He enjoys a very loyal following of devoted...

Fast service with cafeteria style ordering. I had the two meat sampler. The meat was tender and the hot BBQ sauce was really good. Got the red beans and rice, collard greens, and corn bread for sides which were all great. I would definitely recommend this place for some BBQ!

Jim Dandy's has the best pulled pork sandwich around. Order cafeteria stile, then sit down and eat. Great side dishes as well. If you eat here once, you will continue to go back.

I had a pulled pork sandwich platter. Pork was very juicy and tender. My 2 sides was mac & cheese, which was really good, and potato salad which wasnt bad but not how I like it. Cornbread was good as well. Overall I would go again.

Driving south on I-75 and decided to make a lunch stop. We were in sharonville on east Sharon road and found Jim danDy's BBQ. The smell from the smoker were delicious and we were waiting to get some southern BBQ. The pull pork sandwiches were juicy and tender, but the sauce fell short of expectation. We started on the mild... More

I'm lucky - I live in Sharonville so I eat here once a week. Everyone I have ever brought here has enjoyed it. Family-owned Jim start out of a BBQ pit parked in a lot down the street. The rest as they say - history. There used to be a large and established BBQ place within 1/2 mile. They are... More

I had a craving for bbq and read the reviews on TA and thought I would give Dandy's a try. I was looking forward to my visit given the excellent reviews they had received. I visited Dandy's at 5:30 pm on a Saturday. The smell of barbecue from outside is alluring and definitely draws you in. The decor is rustic... More

The ribs are awesome and people are friendly. I will eat here everytime I am in town for business. You might see complaints about only 2 bbq sauces being offered, but in my opinion, who cares as long as they aee tasty, which they are.

The reviews on TA are spot on and Jim Dandy's is a gem in an interesting, industrial part of Sharonville. It is definitely worth seeking out as the pulled pork sandwich is tender and the sweet sauce is sweet. The collard greens are excellent and some of the best I have tasted. The decor is cozy and rustic. The cole... More
