Really nice place and nice people working there. Good to hang out in the summertime and hear some music, or go during winter and sit inside. Food is great also

Just had a fabulous lunch at Calhoun’s on the river. Perfect! Wonderful food and suburb service.

Love the Wednesday buffet. Catfish is superb. The cream corn and spinach are the best sides. Kind of expensive but it is worth it.

The views at this place are awesome — and thank goodness the food is too :) Service is always good and the BBQ is always spot on. What more could you ask for?

Even though the menu is kind of limited from a basic BBQ joint, the staff and atmosphere was great. Love sitting outside looking at the boats and ducks that went by.

We moved to the area 2 months ago and found that Calhouns is a close place that we can ride the boat over for dinner. So we have become regulars mainly because we like the atmosphere and the food is always good. The entertainment tonight was absolutely spectacular! Logan Murrell is such a talent and I could’ve listened to her ALL night. Not like other nights with a few other entertainers, we usually leave way before we are ready because the music isn’t so great. We would LOVE to see Logan more nights, especially Thurs Friday or Saturdays. She would really keep the crowd there. She is one of the best performers I’ve ever seen. Please, more LOGAN!!!

This place was fairly busy with large groups, but still had a good atmosphere to it and was what I expected out of this type of establishment. The smoked brisket was really flavorful and not too dry. I liked it without the house bbq sauce since the sauce was a little too sweet for my liking. The spinach marie was super cheesy but so delicious, and the fresh biscuits were nice and flakey. Even though the beer selection was limited, they did have three micros on tap that were alright. Our server was extremely attentive and patient since we were one of the larger groups. She kept our glasses full and our needs satisfied. This was pretty good and I’d come back the next time I’m in town.

Just ate at the tiki hut. My wife ordered an appetizer and an entrée(on mother’s day) which arrived at the same time. The steak skewers she ordered were stone cold. I had to walk my plate to the waitress(she never came to check on us) to let them know about the cold food. The manager came to the table and apologized, saying, «they just came off the grill, I don’t know how it was cold.» Needless to say we will not be recommending Calhouns to anyone we like.

Great time of year to enjoy the Tiki Hut. Great view and you can bring your furbaby! Great music on the weekend nights. Try the barbeque potato skins

As usual my husband and I were searching for a new experience. It was a beautiful day and we decided on the local Calhouns. We got a perfect two top table right next to the water and began our night with two ice cold local brew beers. We then proceeded to purchase handfuls of fish food and throw it into the water. Now, if you have never seen catfish eat, you wouldn’t believe the amount of food they can! These fish were huge. Worth every penny to see that many large fish battle it out over small bites of food. After that, we decided to go across to the tiki hut for some live music and were impressed with the outdoor space they have available! Right on the water and beautiful! We will go back just for the beer and to feed the fish!!!

I’ve been going here for years… The prime rib on Fridays and Saturdays is to die for… I mean my family requests it every time they’re in town. Fresh oysters, as well, on the weekend. Never had a bad experience with the food. However, I believe the Shrimp skewers are over priced and I wish they offered more variety in a Gluten-free menu. Management needs to train bartenders. Overall maintenance and cleanliness of the restaurant is acceptable; nothing really comes to mind in this department. Staff retention is high, generally people work there for years; not months… Overall an excellent place to bring the family. I bring my nephew here to feed the fish and ducks. He loves it!!!

The ribs were not all that good. I was not impressed. However, my son ordered the steak and it was excellent! Cooked correctly, medium, I wished I had ordered that instead! The rolls were ok. That’s why im rating this a 4 star. Not busy at all when we went. I would go back for the steak… to be continued.

We were visiting from out of town and we wanted to check out the marina and get dinner. Food and drinks ended up being great. Atmosphere was awesome and inviting. Morgan was excellent and helpful. She made perfect recommendations and didn’t mind us hanging after eating. Potato skins and steaks were delicious. I would love to come back during a summer weekend to get the full experience.

The ribs were dry and stringy. The Mac and cheese was bland. The coleslaw was ok. Terrible for a place that says it is a rib joint. Rolls were the best

We went here during their buffet so we didn’t get an opportunity to sample any ordered dishes. And we came near the close of the buffet, so take this review with a grain of salt. The food was pretty good. Pretty good in that the price was commiserate with the product. So I wasn’t mad at them. The best time was spending it with our children and new grandbaby.

My server Mark was very friendly and helpful. Ribs were great as were the beans and corn puddin. Waterfront deck is great too. I say try it. Servers and staff all friendly. They have glutten free menu also. Clean place. Wide variety of choices. More than a bbq joint.

We ate here a few times over the summer and sat outside along the river. The ducks and geese sat below us in the water waiting for crumbs. Great atmosphere and we’ve always had good service. The food is good, I especially like the fried green tomatoes and ribs. The biscuits are so good! We had to ask for more so everyone could enjoy one.

Was a huge fan of Calhouns. Over the years this location seems to be slipping. Last 2 trips(non-buffet) with guest the service was horrible and the ribs old and dry. I loved the buffet but recently they have rearranged the buffet room and added a carver. The guys they have been using are terrible. No idea what they are doing. So then the line backs up. The guy then gave my wife a CHUNK of pulled pork the size of a grapefruit. Food when prepared correctly is the best around. Unfortunately you never know when your going to get that at this location. The Turkey Creek Location has been flawless the 3 or 4 times Ive been there. My suggestion is do the buffet on Wednesday or Friday or pick another location. Oh and for best service sit in the bar area.

One of the ways I judge service at a restaurant is how long it takes the staff to clear the table of dirty plates after I am done eating. This was a remarkable example, so I had to write. Service is horrible. Countless busboys and waitresses buzzed by, ignoring our veritable mountain of dirty dishes.(I counted 32.) We just sat there, staring at each other and the pile of dishes, for over 25 minutes. We are on a date, dressed up, thinking«well, this is awkward.» Then they ask if we want dessert or coffee?! Really? Oh yeah, just put it right here on this greasy plate:)

Good food, service, beverages. No Winter Warmer seasonal though. Pretty large bill. Nothing else like Calhoun’s. Update 8÷7÷2013: keep going back for the excellent food; beer is average at this location(go to Bearden location for the full menu); bartenders are mediocre, they will let you know what they won’t do(samplers, flights, etc.) and gab about their personal life continuously
