Greg Leighty

Excellent bbq & slaw. clean place good service only suggestions i have need baked beans on menu. Will definitely be back.

Alan Tucker

Same as always was. Tender tasty pulled pork BBQ. Awesome service every time with a smile.

Vicki Wells

The pork sandwich & pork plate is so good. The sauce is amazing. The milkshakes are great as well. Best French fries I have ever had. But the slaw is one of a kind. The slaw is awesome. I love this place.

Bill Brannon

The barbecued pork is great but not much else. When you have four or five on the menu then making all of those spectacular would be a home run .

Justin Fisher

Best BBQ hands down

Cat Chick

So glad that I live just down the road. Can hardly wait for one of their BBQ sammiches with slaw on it. Not good eats... Great Eats!!!

Elana Clifton

Great food and great prices. Our server(cute blonde) was so sweet to us and our children. Thank you.

Melinda Driskill

Fay Duncan

Food and service, atmosphere was and always has been magnificent. Got to visit with Mr.Hugh ( previous owner for many years ) Love this place, best BBQ .Every one should try it, located at Lake City

Sheryl Newton

Wonderful BBQ and my favorite sauce! Add to that a friendly staff who provide excellent service all day every day, and you can't go wrong.

Munson’s Group

THIS is real bar-b-q! Look no further. You absolutely cannot beat Knoth’s. Love this place.

marcy howell

I have grown up eatting here. The best place around! We love Knoths Bar B Que

Rae Wagoner

Best BBQ I’ve ever eaten. Tender, smoky, and the sauce is just right. Perfect by the sandwich or catering. We got 22 pounds for a meeting today! Service ? I’ve always been treated like family, and that hasn’t changed with new ownership. The original Hot Pig has taught the new pit masters well, and they’re great guys.

Mike E.

Good BBQ pork, decent price. I'd recommend it.

Craig Gentry

This has been my favorite BBQ joint my whole life. It's the only place for a pulled pork sandwich. Their sauce is the best for pork. Do yourself a favor and order a milkshake. Don't forget cash or checks!

Shelby Peek

I look forward every year to opening day! It's one of my favorite places to eat. Good food at good prices. I always recommend Knoth's to my out of town friends as a must visit place. 5 stars!

Kathryn Turner

I always wait for my favorite BBQ restaurant to open. Love you eat there, great to take home, great for parties, and fantabulous for catering. You always feel like you are part of the family.

Rebekah Driskill

Some of the best bbq ever.

Richard Grant

Great Western Kentucky Pork Barbecue.

Virginia Hawthorne

Knoth's is a casual sit down restaurant located in beautiful Lake City KY with somehow the best barbecue I have ever had. A perfect, affordable lunch if we are doing lake activities, and every once in a while, a great excuse to go do lake activities. The sauce is amazing. Cannot recommend enough.

Amy Ricketts-Anglin

I have been eating at Knoth’s BBQ for at least 30 years. Hands down this is the best BBQ I have ever eaten. I have a very hard time eating BBQ anywhere else because nothing else compares. To me it is the sauce that makes it so good. People have asked me if I have eaten at this place or that place and I always say no if I drive that far I am eating at Knoth’s.

Mendy Harris

Couldn't wait for the season to begin! I missed my BBQ and fries!

Sherri Smith

Awesome as always!

Tim Escue

Great food and the sauce was awesome.

MICHELE WRIGHT

My absolute favorite BBQ!!!! Oh, and I love the fries!! Grab you a bottle of BBQ sauce for home. You'll thank me later.

Kathy Adams

I like Harned's BBQ better but we gave it a try.

Alfred Davie

Very good brisket dinner

Jim Grider

Everytime I visited the area a must was Knoth's Bar B Que. When the locals recommend without hesitation how could so many be wrong? The were correct back in the day and today. A straight flush in the BBQ game. Jim Grider Warden Retired KY Dept of Corrections.

Jayce Joiner

BEST BBQ HANDS DOWN ANYWHERE AROUND HERE!! Anytime we’re in Grand Rivers we always stop and grab a BBQ sandwich! They’re So filling and so full of Flavor & the Sauce is to die for! Would HIGHLY recommend

Mark T

Great little BBQ place, absolutely no complaints. Does not have Brisket, but the pork with the dark sauce was very good.

Teresa Rice

Delicious barbecue! The best in Western Kentucky! We go here often and always enjoy their delicious pulled pork and crinkle cut fries!

Chris von Allmen

Great owners, great place, great feel. BBQ done the way BBQ should be done.

Amber Minor

I love Knoth’s!! I grew up in the area and we have always eaten at Knoth’s. I now travel with my family from central Kentucky and Knoth’s is always on my list of stops. Great pork, great slaw, wonderful family friendly restaurant. Yum!!

Skuba Steve

Great food, awesome service! A+

Larry Allen

If you like bar-b-que, go to Knoth's. The pork plate is delicious. Fries are fresh and hot. Slaw is unique and also delicious. The pork will satisfy you craving for bar-b-que.

Brittney Cunningham

What's not to love! You have a business of 51 years that continues to thrive in a small town with people that come from down the road too many many miles away just eat there BBQ! Knoth's BBQ is a staple for this area and that business should be a staple for every other business in the world because of what it stands for, a longtime family tradition. Also, family, friends and food! They love their customers and know them by name their menu may be simplistic but is very good it is something you can never say no to you have to stop in and give it a try I promise you won't regret it you'll probably be thanking me later! They would love to have you and you will love the experience!

Steven Skinner

The food was good (what little we got). The portions were very small. The sandwich was small and there was more bbq on the sandwich than the plate lunch. Way over priced for what we got.

Brandon Gaddie

Pretty good pork, excellent if you're into the Western KY style BBQ. Sauce is mustard and vinegar based with a hint of sweet or straight pepper and heat. Just add a bit of both on a bun with the slaw, pickles and onions and you can't go wrong

holly brandsasse

I love this place and make the drive from Murray because they've got the best bbq anywhere around! I worked at the Murray location more than 25 years ago and I've never found another bbq that can even compare. Their sauce is awesome and I love their mustard slaw, too. Yum, yum, yum!!!

Deborah Arnold

Great home feeling. Great food.

Lj Gordon

Hands down, best barbecue anywhere. A western Kentucky tradition from way back. First day of spring for us hereabouts is when Knoth’s opens. :)

Rachael Gordon

BEST AROUND!!!!! GREAT PEOPLE AS WELL AS THE FOOD!!!!! Couldn't ask for better! Been going since I was little girl and I started the same tradition with my daughter who is 8months old.

BRENDA MANYPENNY

We have grown fond of the excellent food served here. The waitresses have always been great! Top notch team working together here at Knoth's that's for sure! Can't wait to dine in again soon! A++++++ Voted them for Paducah Sun's Readers Choice 2018!!

Randy Thmas

Best bar b que around.

Rhonda Jones

Best BBQ ever!!!! I have enjoyed eating there all my life. I never get BBQ anywhere else because I know Iwill be disappointed. The sauce is like nowhere else!! LOVE IT!!!!

Ginny Reed

Love this place! The BBQ is awesome!!! And I am a very picky person about my BBQ! The atmosphere is perfect for families. When our kids come in from out of town they always want to go to Knoths for BBQ first thing and usually the last thing before they leave and also in between! The service is always quick and friendly. I highly recommend. One thing to note is that they do not accept credit cards.

steve nesmith

The only reason I am giving 2 stars is the service was very friendly and nice. The pulled pork on the other hand was tasteless, like it was cooked in a crock pot, not smoked or even grilled.

Katlyn Arnett

My family and I love to eat a Knoth's Bar-B-Que. It is a family friendly place to eat and have a good time. The wait staff is really friendly and so are the owners

Laurence Hartnett

Went here for the first time in 2017 after hearing so much about this place. And guess what, it was freakin awesome. Just wished they had asked about putting sauce on my bbq before doing so. Will be back in 2018 and beyond.

Sean Murphy

Best BBQ in the midwest

ron harner

Some of the best BBQ around I swear!! Highly recommend this place!! Worth the drive everyone!!!

Micki Colson

Hands down, the best bbq I've ever had. Their sauce is fantastic. The service is friendly, fast and the food is consistently amazing.

John Walker

Very good bbq

Jeffrey Sutherland

Just ok BBQ. My wife cooks better pork in our slow cooker. And the 'hot' sause was just ok, but needed every bite to make the pork taste...

Pam Pinnegar

I have lived in Grand Rivers for 18 years and look forward to opening day every year! They have the best barbecue around and the friendliest service! I am always greeted with a smile and a hello!

Dustan Phipps

Me and my dad ate here and the food and service was great good barbecue dinner and sandwiches I would want to come back again and eat here.best bbq in western Kentucky.

brandon chauvin

Great food and service if you're just driving by

Phillip Gray

We planned and pulled off a surprise dinner for my fathers 80th birthday. He was very surprised and happy because we had about 25 family members from 2 yo to 90 yo attend. Andy the owner and his staff prepared three sides and then took individual orders from our family. Every thing was extremely tasty and delicious. The waitresses were very kind, extremely attentive and friendly. Andy and the kitchen staff also went the extra mile to help all they could. Everyone in our party was pleased with the dinner. Highly recommend this fine establishment

David Farmer

Excellent food and friendly staff

Aaron O'neal

Love this little spot for bbq. Friendly service great food.

Melissa Pittard

Great Barbecue! We go every year when we are at our family reunion. I’ve never had anything but great food and great service!

Shayna Johnson

Great food! GREAT people who work there. We were a little concerned when it was sold, but we remained customers and are very proud that it remains the same old Knoth’s as before. We are now patently awaiting opening day just like we do every year!

William Fowler

I've been eating their barbecue pretty much ever since I was able to eat solid food and that's been 50+ years. You don't stay in business that long if you're not doing it right.

Anubis

Best bbq sauce

Marlene Mull

Great ppl great food

Mariesa Knoth

My mother and father, then my brother and his wife owned this restaurant for over 50 years. They cooked the best barbecue ever ! Now that the restaurant has new owners, it is still the best barbecue ever ! I am so grateful to the new owners for keeping the restaurant open and serving barbecue perfection. Thank you !!!!

H

It was a very nice, quaint old restaurant/diner. Prices are low for hamburgers but the BBQ pork plate price is just shy of $9, which is average. The food is awesome though. The meat is great, the fries were crinkle cut frozen type (standard) the coleslaw seems homemade and is a yellow color, and quite sweet, which compliments the BBQ sauce very well. My only dig, was that i like pickles with my BBQ plate meals, and it came without any (I stole one from my wife's hamburger, as can be seen in the photo) other than that, it's definitely a great place to stop by. It's seasonal too, so enjoy it while it's open!

Tiffany Reed

We love the BBQ at Knoths! The sauce is great and the atmosphere is friendly!! Definitely recommend!!

Sandra Martin

Great food!!! BBQ & slaw are very tasty. Highly recommend if you are in the area.

whathe chuck

Fabulous BBQ sandwich with slaw and hot sauce. On point!

Becky Sucher

Great pulled pork sandwich!

tamara pressley

Help was not friendly to us but we're to other's and the food was not good

Valerie Hendley

The best coleslaw I have ever tasted in western Kentucky.

Joan Powell

Love it had a Rose Family birthday

Brent Baker

Knoth's Bar-B-Que is the best BBQ in the south. I can't describe how good this place is. The large bbq plate with a side of Cole slaw and fries is something you will dream about at night. Their meat is beyond lean and the sauce is a concoction of pure beauty. Do yourself a life favor and visit Knoth's before your time is up.

Brad Gray

After a great morning fishing this is the only way to make a day better! I always love going to KY lake because I get to eat here!

James Hamp

Their pork sandwiches,fries and slaw are always fresh and hot couldn't ask for a better place to eat

Brent Highfil

Best BARBQ ever

Dale Jones

Awesome BBQ. Coleslaw was outstanding. Great experience.

Jerry Humphries

Just plain good and friendly.

Chris Klopfenstein

This is the best BBQ IN THE WORLD. Order it Fat'n'brown! And get the slaw!

Cindy Silverbach

Great local restaurant! Pork was moist and tasty! Waitress was adorable and Very Polite! Only reason I did not give 5 stars is a veggie is needed on the menu (besides coleslaw). Green beans, perhaps?! Overall great experience!

Bryan A

Great food and great service. Love that the menu is small. After all you're there for BBQ

Abbey Cartwright

Knoths BBQ is THE BEST BBQ I have ever had! It is by far better than anything else I have tried in KY or all of TN combined! Their homemade sauce is a staple in our house! We ❤️ Knoths!!

Jake McCallon

When it comes to BBQ, Knoth's is hard to beat. The food is top notch and so are the folks that run the place!

Kim Smith

Ok barbeque.

Quiche Matchen

The best barbecue and milkshakes! My favorite place to go when I come home! If you haven't been, what are you waiting for?

Carrie Crawford

Knoth’s BBQ has the best bbq around Kentucky. Their workers always are friendly & has smiles on their faces. Their restaurant is so clean. Love Knoth’s BBQ

Fish Hook

Best place to get BBQs in the world

aulton settle

Very good barbecue not much else on the menu. Like to eat there and have gone back several times. They do have restrooms and the restraunt. Reminds me of the barbecue plays I remember when I was younger. By the way barbeque in this case is pork.

Allison Rose

Best BBQ sauce ever made combined with great bbq makes This place one of the best BBQ places in Western Kentucky. Always fantastic food and friendly staff. Keeps me coming back time after time.

Terry Shelton

Food as always was wonderful. Service was great.

Suzi Bean

It was good, fast service. The Pork Plate was very good.

John big daddy lowe

Bbq is awesome. Very tender and great sauce and very friendly staff all around great spot to eat at

V D

Best little BBQ place in the area of Grand Rivers. I love their brisket and the tangy sauce. My go to place in the area for good BBQ.

John Hagan

This is the best barbecue in Western Kentucky. The sauce is phenomenal. Service is provided with the best in southern hospitality. I highly recommend it.

Connie Rhodes

Great taste. Small portion high priced. So popular that it is NOT UNCOMMON TO RUN OUT OF MEAT BEFORE NOON!

Brieland Jones

I’ve been coming to Knoth’s since I was born and the nostalgia of a pork plate with sauce is only strengthened when I now see my son eat it with the biggest smile on his face. Hands down best bbq in western Kentucky If not the state. Thank you so much Hugh and crew!

Mike Dougherty

Awesome mom/pop style bbq place. Went with some locals who suggested child plate which turned out to be a pretty good portion. Had bottles of extra sauce, both hot and sweet. Hot was just about right.

Chris Butterworth

BBQ was good, especially the sauces provided on the side but sandwiches were served without plates. Server was very pleasant. We arrived at a little after 6 pm and they were starting to close about 10 minutes before 7 pm.

Jason Bridges

Best barbecue in the whole dam area! The pulled pork is consistently tender and juicy. Try the pork plate which has great slaw to complement the pork. The sauce is unique and goes oh so well with the pulled pork. My kids enjoy the secret menu item, the Shelby. Ask them about it - it’s great if you don’t want a big plate or for the kids.

Sha Estes

Knoth’s is the best BBQ around. We usually eat there once a week. This is a place that treats everyone like family. Excellent food and service. If you haven’t had Knoth’s then you are missing out.

wayne hadfield

The best bbq anywhere I try not to ride by without getting a little Q

JT Nutzo

Awesome hole in the wall BBQ joint. Clean, friendly staff and the BBQ pork and sauce is up there with the best I've had. Reasonable price. I'd highly rec'd!

Kirstin

Best place ever! You will not be disappointed! The truly know bbq!

Mark Rhoades

Best BBQ in our area. They have been around a long time. So good. 5 stars

Mary Davis

The BBQ was good, however the menu was very limited. The waitress was friendly and helpful, just didn't come by the table much.

Pete Hughes

Great place to EAT. BBQ

Brian Ragsdale

Best BBQ in the tri-state area. The pulled pork and homemade sauce would be my last supper if I were going to the electric chair, it's that good

Kim Burchard

Great barbeque!

Ezra Crider

The meat was very tender,sause was ok, but when you go looking for baby back ribs, they didn't have any. No chicken either, which upset my daughter-in law. Plus they didn't have any sweet tea, which upset my son. Prices were'nt all that bad but it does leave a little bit to be desired. Ezra E. Crider

Brian Harris

GREAT BBQ COULD NOT ASK FOR A BETTER DINNER ...just passing and so glad I found this place

Melissa Davis

Been going there for years off and on whenever I'm able to. Great service, great food, and great people. It feels homey whenever I go in there to get a sandwich or couple lbs of shoulder.

PENNY LOVELL

Its the best bbq.. We live out of town and we make sure we stop to eat there every time we go down.. Its wonderful. The owners and staff. Are the best . excellent staff ..excellent food. Make sure u stop there u won't be sorry. Its the best..

Cynthia Phelps

We love Knoth's BBQ. Can't wait for It to open. We have taken our children there all their lives and it is still our daughter's favorite restaurant. She lives in Louisville now but when she comes home to visit we always take her there to eat.

Brenda Hubbard

I had the brisket and it was delicious the servers were friendly and very polite

Anna Thomas Brien

We’ve been going here for great BBQ for as long as I can remember. A summer staple for sure!

Dave Tedrick

Very good! Nice place, takes you back. Go there every time we are in the area.

amytownsell

Delicious bbq, with sweet and tangy sauce...just the way I like it! Top notch barbecue!

Cora Hendrix

Love the beef and the pork. Beef better than th pork

Bill J

Its awesome. Always buy a bottle of mild and hot sauce from them too. Real good stuff. Its a mom and pop but clean. Good service...but no plates

Thomas Lundquist

We were in town looking for good BBQ, and Knoths showed up with great reviews. We had a party of 5 and were served promptly and most of us had the beef (brisket) sandwich. It came with an amazing mustard-influenced bbq sauce that was tangy, sweet, and hit all the taste buds well. The meat was tender and not dry at all. They had extra BBQ sauce on the table, one was a spicy bbq sauce. It was sweet for the first .05 seconds and the rest had me sweating like crazy and i kept coming back for more! The spicy bbq sauce was AMAZING. Service was great and prices were spot-on, considering the sandwiches are a bit smaller than a traditional sandwich bun.

Wendy Crawford

Authentic hickory smoked bbq pork that is delicious! Ask for it "fat and brown". Amazing!

C Skipper

Amazing bbq and milkshakes

Becky Fields

Best pork BBQ I've ever had & the chocolate milkshakes are to die for! Often purchase whole shoulders for family functions; enjoyed last one for Christmas. Sides of fries served hot and the slaw is awesome! The hot sauce tastes fantastic and we keep bottles of mild and mixed for the faint of heart, and we buy enough to get us through the Winter as we mourn each season closing!

MatthewW

My job requires extensive travel and has allowed me the privilege to eat at many different establishments throughout the years and truthfully I’ve never had BBQ brisket that was actually worth bragging to anyone about until I tried the BBQ brisket an Knoths in Lake City. I can honesty tell everyone that reads this post that you will never have a more perfectly cooked, tender beef brisket anywhere and especially with that wonderful mouthwatering hickory smoke flavor that permeates throughout the meat and Ive only experienced that flavor on the surface and never have experienced that throughout the entire cut of meat before and I think I have found the first real mind blowing culinary experience in the one place I would never have expected and that is in Lake City Ky on hwy 62 before you cross the river on the right called Knoths BBQ.

wayne bruce

Good service and food

Natalie McPherson

I've been going here my entire life! I anticipate that hot fresh BBQ and their steam white bread all winter long! Visit if you can. It's not fancy, but it's so good!

Brittney Meredith-Miller

My family and I have been eating at Knoth's for decades, and we can always count on the same wonderful food, fantastic service, and incredible atmosphere every time we step through the door. They keep the menu simple, and for good reason. Why be ok at a million things when you can be the best at a few classics? They have the most tender, delicious pork anywhere on God's green earth, and that sauce? Ask anyone 'round these parts about that sauce, and they'll probably admit they've got a few bottles stashed in their pantry to get them through the long winter months when Knoth's is closed, because it's just THAT good. This place is an absolute staple of the region, and you'd struggle to find a better casual dining experience.

Bobbi Miller

Knoth's Bar-B-Que is hands down the best pulled pork you will ever eat. The Knoths take great pride in cooking their shoulders on a hickory pit without changing one little thing in 50 years! The Pork shoulders are a great way to feed a crowd. Go in for my favorite, the pulled pork plate served with golden brown crinkle fries and delicious mustard slaw! Have an ice cream cone for dessert and you will walk away happy and satisfied! You cannot beat Knoths!!!!

John Egbert

Best BBQ sandwiches around. After moving to another state, my wife and I drive over 10-15 a year just for lunch (about 4 hr roundtrip). I've eaten at Knoth's for almost 50 years, and the food quality has never changed ... terrific staff, too! Highly recommend if you're in the area !

Julie Wood

This was my grandfather's favorite place to eat.....so I have been eating this wonderful BBQ for 50 years......the best anywhere.

Alex Orr

I'm a nomadic fisherman who roams the countries waters in search of new species of fish. During my travels I have tasted many types of BBQ. From KC to St. Louis and greater Missouri, Bama, The Carolina's, Georgia Tennessee, Virginia even places that aren't known for BBQ up north. Knoth's, out of all these places keeps me awake at night, fighting the urge to get in the car and drive 16 hours to Kentucky dam. Knoth's 1/2 pound chopped pork plate is the closest thing to spiritual nirvana you will find on this earth. Their Cole slaw is legendary, I would sell my grandmother to Egyptian slave traders for the recipe. Their menu is simple but in that simplicity they are able to attain a perfection unmatched by any other BBQ Joint I have ever eaten at. Eat here BUT be warned, you will develop a life long dependence on their food for which there is no cure.

Joseph Freece

Amazing BBQ! Great staff and prices as well, can’t beat it!

Emily Holley

We have a lot of BBQ joints in our area, but, Knoth’s is hands-down our very favorite. They have the nicest staff, friendliest atmosphere and most of all, best barbeque and slaw! We cannot wait for them to open for the season!

Yvette and Jorgen Larsen

They are a true Country BBQ, serving their freshly-BBQed Meats with fries, coleslaw and white bread-- and of course, tea! Real friendly service, old-time atmosphere!

A Larimer

Knoth's is just a short drive over the dam for my family and I, the bbq is hands down the best in our area - wish they were open all year long!

Tammie Smith

BEST BBQ around, my all-time favorite sauce. Don't be surprised CASH or CHECK only, NO credit or No Debit cards. Friendly staff. Family owned/operated for something like 50 year's. I often get a whole shoulder for our large family gatherings of 40 people. Open until 7:30 pm or until they sell OUT, CLOSED in the winter. Definitely check them out.

Jessica Welman

Great place to grab a bite. Very good service. Good prices and super yummy food. Staff was very friendly.

Larrin Conner

Great place overall some of the best bbq this ole girl has had sense moving to ky. The sauce is awesome as well. Great employee and service.

Bill Proctor

I've been eating barbecue all my life. When I travel, I always try to hit up at least one 'cue joint a trip if not one a day. I can say without hesitation this place was one of the worst I've ever visited. They were out of pulled pork at 5:30. The waitress said the brisket is great! I ordereay it and it was more like a bad chuck roast sliced in tiny pieces. Their sides? Crappy slaw, limp fries and white bread sliced diagonally. That's it. Portions were skimpy. Meat was basically flavorless and coleslaw was terrible. And my tab? $12.50 before tip. I can't believe I drove 7 miles off of I-24 for this garbage. Be smart...steer clear of this place...

Jeanette Sims

Great service and great food.

larrynKim Stegall

Delicious home smoked BBQ, Brisket and Ribs. Friendly servers, family owned and has been around for years.

Chad Colson

Wonderful! You won't find better BBQ anywhere in the area. Unique place with a friendly staff. Make it a point to go if you haven't ever been!

Jody Suhrheinrich

Love Jess, Andy, Ed and the whole team. Like a neighborhood spot!

Darlene Timmons

Was very good

Terry Stalions

Always THE BEST

Steven Cheswick

Knoths is the most family orientated classic place to eat and make memories.Mr.knoth use to feed all of us neighborhood kids every day of the summer.5-10 of us would ride our bikes after fishing all day and knock on the back door.He would pop his head out the back door and count how many of us there was.After about 5 minutes he and other employees would come out with trays full of the best BBQ SANDWICHES ORDER OF FRIES AND A LARGE DRINK.He did this for years free of charge.Mr and Mrs.knoth are amazing people and always kept us kids a place that felt like home.

Benita Meadows

At 3:45 they were already out of beef, which one person couldn't eat pork. When the pork plate came, the pork wasn't hot at all. Won't go back unless I go at lunch so I can have a beef barbecue sandwich.

Tim Fowler

Good food and love the mustard bbq sauce

Sunny Harper

I have eaten here my whole life, I remember when there were two locations! The best BBQ and sauce that I’ve ever eaten. My absolute favorite!

Kelsie Fitzpatrick

We went here because it somehow got 4.9 stars and was open past 6pm. However, dont go here if you dont like mustard, it's on and in everything. The meat was pretty dry. It was edible, however to top it off, there was a dead fly in with the fries. The staff there was really nice and helpful.

John Dunning

I love this place. I have been eating here at least once a year for the last 35 years. BBQ is awesome. Never had a bad experience.

Desirae Kessler

We lived in Grand Rivers in '14. Ate at Knoth's regularly! It is the best BBQ we have ever had and plan on taking a vacation this summer just to go back there. Will definitely be buying sauce to bring back home!

Lynn Marlowe

I’ve been eating at Knoth’s my entire life! (I’m now 48) I have tried BBQ in several states and no one can compare to Knoth’s. You can taste the hours of smoking the meat and the sauce tastes like no other. The sauce is so good in fact that the locals buy it by the bottle to get them through the winter months while the restaurant is closed! They only have two sides, but you will not care because the BBQ is the star of the show! The staff treats you like family and are the friendliest around. You will not go wrong coming by and visiting with them.

Damon Storms

Excellent barbecue pulled pork. Unfortunately no baked beans.not many sides to choose from. Good french fries.

Rodney Pidcock

Knoth's is a Western Kentucky legend. For my whole life, my family and I have enjoyed the delicious food, and that superb sauce! Give 'em a try today, you'll be glad you did!

Rachel Hall

Been going since I was little.....Love this place....best BBQ ever....and the sauce is even better
