This BBQ is made for walking.... right past this place.
Walked down mainstreet looking for a good dinner spot, thought Bandits would be the place, however, we were wrong.
Service was terrible, poor guy couldnt remember anything we ordered, had to ask him multiple times for several different items. Â In his defense, he was very friendly and apologetic, but after 3 times, "sorry" wasnt good enough.
The food... a few of us ordered the combos, portion sizes were small. Ribs were very tough and the pulled pork was watered down. The tri-tip steak sandwich was very tasty, however the tri-tip tacos were missing some ingredients! Their famous corn was dry.
When it was time for our check, we made a bet that the onion rings that never made it to our table would be on the check even though we asked him to take it off... And of course, it was...
The only good thing was the music. Â We will not be returning to Bandits on our next visit. It was apparent that the management was not present or assertive.
With all the choices on Mainstreet, Bandits better get their act together!
Love this place. Four of us went for dinner on a Thursday night and it was perfect. Prices are reasonable, food is delicious, service is friendly, portions are huge, nice beer selection.
We shared the tri-tip nachos based on Yelp reviews and you guys are right - they're amazing. Maybe the best nachos I've ever had. I had the baby back ribs with rice and beans and they were delicious - not especially meaty but tender and flavorful. They have a bottle of homemade BBQ sauce on the table which I wasn't crazy about, but otherwise my dinner was excellent. Others at my table had tri-tip steak, tri-tip sandwich and plank grilled salmon and everything was reported to be excellent. We would all go back.
Highly recommended.
Based on what we had: 5 Stars.
My girlfriend and I had stopped in for a mid day bite to eat, and decided to keep it simple with a couple of appetizers. We got the Tri tip nachos, and the 1lb stuffed baked potato.
The 1lb stuffed potato I believe was stuffed with the usual sour cream, cheese, butter etc, but then on top of that it was filled with big chunks of pulled pork that was delicious. Definitely recommended.
The nachos had to be top 5 nachos of all time. Covered with beans, cheese, salsa, sour cream, guac, and a pile of medium to medium rare tri tip chunks of steak. Incredible.
Top that off with a polygamy porter, a cranberry juice for her, and we were set. Total price was around $27 before tip.
Go here, or regret your decision for the rest of your miserable life.
