Bono's Pit Bar-B-Q

Barbecue here means meat being roasted inside a pit and served to you with a twist of Southern hospitality. I don’t know about you, but for me, service and food go hand in hand. Think about that for a moment. Pause. Ponder. Are you going back to that place that left a bitter taste in your mouth? I am not. My appetite goes where great food is served and outstanding service follows. The wallet will smile and open up like an old trunk ready to serve when requested. [Do] You know why the service here accompanies a greatly seasoned barbecue freshly out of the pit? Excellence in what they do! Meet Jada. [She is] A young, savvy waitress, whose joy, when she comes around the table, cannot be ignored. She is smart, pleasant, polite, carries a loving heart and willingness to get all you need quickly. I mean she does it in some sort of Guinness Book of Records - yet heartwarmingly. When she smiles, no one can possibly be grumpy around this girl. Put that in your food - and digest it! 😉 She will stop a bit, talk to you, and even ask how you have been. You do not get just a meal in this place. You are served with importance, dignity, and respect. You are as important as anyone who walks into those doors hoping to quench their thirst or leave satisfied and hungry no more. Her impeccable understanding of customer service, allied to a delightful presence, will make you feel like an important guest at a five-star Michelin restaurant in any part of the world. Southern hospitality could never have ever found a better ambassador. Those who lack it, should check what she has going on. She knows what she is doing - better yet! [She knows] How she is doing. Go meet her at Bono’s and tell me what you think! 😊

Have eaten here at Bono’s in Middleburg before. Food is almost always perfect and the service by the staff is always good, even if busy. Well I happened to accidentally drop a small wad of cash out of my pocket onto the floor when I left. Short time later, another customer spotted it on the floor at the main entrance and the waitress we had picked it up and secured it and started making attempts to try and find us. About 30minutes later I called after they had closed, and was able to make arrangements to go back and pick up my cash. Must say that I was pleasantly surprised and cannot say enough how impressed and pleased I was with the honesty of the employees. Have definitely made it a point to recommend this place to anyone who will listen.!!!!

I eat at places where my job sends me. So my coworker and I decided BBQ for lunch. We are veterans and asked for military discount. The waitress says sure. So I ask for the "LOADED TOTS." It was good, but it could have been hotter. Anyway, the bill comes, and I noticed there was a discount of $.35 added, but only to the $3.85 sprite and not the whole bill. So I asked why not the the entire bill and she replied I ordered the special of the menu. Shouldn't that have been implied when I ordered my meal? js

Love the smokey smell when you step in the door. Okra and sweet potato were great. Brisket was good meat. Lacked a bit of a smoke flavor, but very moist. Great local atmosphere.
