Good Food, Nice Place. Bring Earplugs

by perstare

I've eaten there several times. I usually am part of a group of people, numbering between 6 and 15.

I look forward to the day when the Calhoun's owners invest in some soundproofing. My only criticism of the place is that my ears are ringing by the time we leave. It is very noisy -- but not caused by guests shouting. It is caused by the surface of the walls and ceiling... highly sound reflective.

It really is bad.

I am scheduled to meet with my group, at Calhoun's, this coming Friday, September 7. I may not go just because of the noise level.

... and... for the record, it isn't just me and my ears...Calhoun's is widely known for this noise problem.

The food is great, the service very good. Go. ...but be forewarned.

• Pros: Food, Service
• Cons: The noise level. Ouch -- my poor ears!

quality que

by tennbbq

Calhouns really does a quality job with its BBQ ribs

and BBQ pork. It's actually hickory smoked so its

authentic BBQ by the real definition of BBQ. The ribs are the best I've had anywhere. On top of that

the cole slaw, beans, and homemade biscuits

lets you know you know you are in the South where the BBQ is the best. The staff was very

friendly and service is always prompt.

• Pros: smells like BBQ, Southern hospitality, great BBQ sauce
