Maybe it's because we went late at night, maybe it's because it's not the original location, whatever the case, we left Walt's very disappointed. The BF & I went with his family on Friday night. We'd been to the original location in Colerain several times and really liked it. The mashed potatoes were more like soup than potatoes. The cornbread was dry and the fries were overly seasoned. My burger tasted off and the BF thought his pulled pork was overcooked. Aside from the food, the atmosphere was also off. Karaoke was going on in the bar area and was so loud we could barely hear each other speak. Walt's needs to decide what it wants to be - a bar or a restaurant. At the very least, build a bigger barrier between the two areas so those who want to eat and have a conversation are able to.

If you like BBQ this is the place to visit. I would try to come earlier in the evening otherwise I find the meats to be a little on the dry side being that they smoke everything onsite. My favorite is the half chicken with mac n cheese and baked beans. All dinners are served with a homemade corn muffin that next to melts in your mouth. They have a full bar which has a happy hour from 4 to 7 Monday through Friday. Also it's well worth it to add a spicy sausage to your meal for $2.99.

I have only been to Walt's a handful of times, but I have never had a bad experience. I went last night with my husband, my parents, and my sister. My husband and I started with a moonshine sampler. Maybe it's just because moonshine isn't really my thing (or his) but I didn't care for any of them that much. We tried the strawberry, blackberry, peach, and apple pie. I kind of liked the blackberry but I'd never order it again. The others were kind of gross. My mom liked the apple pie one. We ordered the Pit-Special to share. It comes with pulled chicken and pork, brisket, and a full slab of rips. Plus three sides. We had the mac n cheese, loaded potato salad, and green beans. I don't understand why the cornbread is always cold but it's basically just that cheap Jiffy cornbread (which I've liked since I was a kid). The mac n cheese was delicious and the beans were just your standard green beans. Nothing exciting. I really liked the potato salad - it was like a potato skin that was cold. Super tasty. All of the meat was really good. I was a huge fan of the brisket. The ribs just fell off the bone. Their sauces are really good. Our service was a little slow but the waitress was friendly and helpful. There was plenty of food for the 5 of us - we probably all ate too much but it was really good. I know that my parents enjoy Walt's a lot so I'm sure we'll be back with them again sometime. On our way out (around 6pm on a Saturday) there was a sign on the door saying they were now out of ribs. Guess we got the last slab.

Went there on a Saturday morning for lunch. One other table in the place. Salad and dressing were good. Fish sandwich was okay. Brisket was like shoe leather. Green beans and collard greens came right out of a can - and in the case of the collard greens, a very bad can. When I tried to call to complain on the following Monday (didn't want to complain at the time of the meal - didn't want to start a Saturday outing on a sour note) nobody answers the phone. So I wrote an email on their website - no response whatsoever. Never again!!

Good used to be good until changed ownership. Flavor and presentation of food has gone downhill. They got rid of to many of the items that were good. I don't go anymore.

Use to love Walts before they changed ownership. I ordered the turkey dinner and it was 2 small slices of turkey that was rock hard. I was very disappointed and will not be back, much better off driving to Eli's or pit to plate for bbq. Not to mention the service was horrible, we had our food for no more than 10 minutes and the server came up and asked if we were done and ready for our check. I hope the management looks at all the bad reviews and changes something otherwise it will soon be out of business.

Food and service were both extremely disappointing. We won't be back. The menu has slimmed so much. Waited 10 minutes for refills. Salads were brought out after our meal. Food was ice cold. Waited ten more minutes for our checks to be split. For the price, I recommend you go elsewhere. SMOQ in Fairfield is a bit more expensive, but the food is a much higher quality and they seem to care about their customers.

I've always loved Walt's and have been coming since 2010. It's the best BBQ I've been able to find in Butler County. Though I believe Smokey Bones in West Chester is tops. Walt's has the best corn bread; so moist. The sides are plentiful and all winners. I always go for the pulled pork sandwich with the mustard/vinegar sauce. Pretty good beer selection but you're on your own for a recommendation because the servers are clueless. The pacing of the courses was definitely off last time I was here. My friend had just gotten his salad and they placed his meal down. Salad ended up untouched. I don't like feeling rushed.

I ordered the turkey dinner. Tasted ok, but the serving size was incredibly small and looked like nursing home food. It was more like a turkey snack. Bu-bum tss!
(1)Terri S.
The menu has changed drastically!! No more bake potato casserole, no red beans & rice and that's just a few!!! The brisket I had was all fat! Walts BBQ has changed hands to a new owner and they have destroyed it!!! Don't waist your money if you are looking for good BBQ worth your time & money!!! What a sad day for Hamilton and BBQ!!!

Service is awful! But food makes up for it 100%. Had one waitress waiting on like 10 tables with large groups and multiple others passed by and just kept saying she was busy. Took 25 minutes to get order taken and then food sat at window waiting for 10 minutes because the server was distracted by coworkers hanging out at cash register chatting. Another waitress brought us our food and apologized because I asked why they were hanging out and she said most were "off the clock" and it happens often. Food was the best BBQ in a long time and I'm harsh on my BBQ. Great pulled pork, great variety of sauces. Excellent food worth the wait!!!

I got pulled pork with a side of baked beans and mac n cheese. I expected the pulled pork to be in sandwich form, but perhaps I read the menu too hastily. The pulled pork was very good. So were the beans. Cornbread muffin was moist and delicious. Mac n Cheese was meh. My girlfriend had a bowl of chili which I tried. I thought it was pretty bland, and they put red onion on top which I thought was unusual but not bad. I tried all three of their sauces. They had a sweet BBQ, a spicy BBQ, and a mustard vinegar one. Both of the BBQ sauces were good, but I certainly wouldn't call their "spicy" sauce spicy. I'm not a fan of mustard vinegar sauces and this one didn't change my mind.

This establishment is so frustrating. It is similar to playing what I shall now dub as food roulette. Some days you will walk in here, and the food and service will be phenomenal. Other days you will come in and the service will be poor and the food cold. The three things I would suggest are poncho's nachos, the wings, and the three pigg sandwich sampler, all have huge portions and the sampler gives you a taste of everything. They were better served at the smaller location, as it fit in better, taking over the old Buffalo Wild Wings, was not a smart move. Overall, it is worth a try and depending on how things end up, it'll be a great experience, or a poor one.

We were expecting to find the B-Dub's that had been at this location the last time we were here but found the newest location of Walt's BBQ instead. Hungry for meat of any kind we decided to give it a try. The inside was hardly touched from it's days as a wing joint but the smoky smells were most definitely sending a different message. The crowd was light for lunchtime (it was a rainy Monday) so we were seated right away and our orders were taken. I ordered the pulled pork sammy with collared greens and my partner ordered the pulled chicken with sweet potato casserole. As with most BBQ places, the food came out fast (which was good cuz we were in a hurry). When the food is this good, the portion never looks like it's big enough which was the case here. The meat was served on a hoagie roll with no sauce (the way I like it) and the collared greens were just OK (I like a little pork in mine) and the sweet potato casserole was gone quickly so it must have been to her liking. There appear to be daily specials each day as well as events planned (Karaoke anyone?) most nights.

Last night we arrived at 6:15 and put our name in for a table for six people. The host disappeared and other customers started coming in one after the other. After 10 minutes the host came back to a crowd in the waiting area and asked "who was first?" Everyone looked at each other and I heard someone say "really?" Awkward. There needs to be a host taking names and managing the flow - not optional. We were seated after a 15 or 20 minute wait. We put in our drink order and waited for at least 15 minutes before the pop/tea/water arrived. We placed our food order and waited. And waited. And waited. Our server never checked on us - not a single time. My grandson finally took his glass and mine and went to the drink station and obtained our refills. After a little more waiting, our granddaughter, who works at Walt's, came to our table and told us our server had walked out - quit. Okay, these things happen, right? Well, we sat there another half hour and the manager had still not stopped to apologize or make any attempt to resolve the issue. I stopped him and politely said that we understand they have a lot going on but I needed to add something to our order. He asked what I wanted and I told him and he said he would take care of it. After another half hour my wife went to the kitchen entrance and asked if our order had even been entered and she was advised they didn't have our order. We left about ten minutes later. Let me stress that at no time in the two hours that we sat at our table did ANYONE from the staff check on us. Not once. This was really the worst restaurant experience I've had. My observations would indicate the following advice/observations for the owners and managers: The server was working more tables than he could handle. He made a bad decision and quit instead of doing his best and sucking it up. Those things happen and a plan needs to be in place to react accordingly. The manager needs to visit each table and be open and honest and try to diffuse the frustrations. Thirty seconds talking to us would have allowed them to realize someone needs to check on our order and to discover it needed entered. You need enough staff working the restaurant to assure good service, otherwise you're doomed. Look at the other complaints. The number one problem here is SERVICE, SERVICE, SERVICE. It's not that difficult. Hire someone who can recruit and train people to smile, ask how they can help, and keep checking on customers. So, the finish to our visit: TWO HOURS, NO FOOD, NO SERVICE, NO APOLOGY. Interestingly, we hadn't been to Walt's in a long time because the previous visit was unsatisfactory as well. Will we go again? If so it will only be because our granddaughter works there and we love her. The barbecue isn't so special that people are willing to overlook terrible service.

This is terrible BBQ I got a full slab of ribs and they were overcooked, mushy and had no flavor. My wife got brisket and it was very dry and crunchy on the edges. Both meats tasted like they were precooked days before and then warmed up. Their sides were worse. I told our waitress that our food was not good and she gave us our bill and said sorry. Don't waist your time and money here if you like good BBQ.

Thanks to Yelp HQ, Walt's address is now up to date. Walt's is absolutely open, just at a new location near Hobby Lobby. I tried Walt's for the first time on Friday night, and I was stunned. We arrived and the place was full, but waited less than 10 minutes to be seated. Our waitress had our table, two large groups, and a few other tables, and we never had to wait for anything. The service was outstanding and we couldn't ask for more. As for the food, well, wow. Although the BBQ sauce selection was limited to 3 types, they were all good. I'm not sure why they call the one "Carolina Gold", because when I lived in North Carolina, we didn't have a sauce like that. Still good though. I tried several items of the menu, including the potato skins (they come with BBQ beef brisket on them), pulled pork, beef brisket, spicy sausage, and ribs. For sides I tried fried okra, sweet potato casserole, and baked beans. The pork and the brisket were perfectly prepared. The crust on the brisket was outstandingly rich. Add a little sauce to either, and viola, you've got some of the best Texas BBQ I've ever had. It even tops Burbank's, if you remember them in their heyday. The ribs come dry, but you can add the sauce of your choosing if you want to. I think that's why the dry rub was tempered a bit, because most people probably eat them wet. They were good wet or dry. The spicy sausage was really good, similar to a a Bahama Mama at Schmidt's German restaurant in Columbus. The flavor was really good, and it had a slow burn to it, but I was so absorbed in the pulled pork and brisket, I saved it for later. The sweet potato casserole is outstanding. Definitely a top pick for a side dish. This is a top 5 performer compared to other sweet potato casseroles I have tried. The baked beans were top notch, and could not be improved upon. Finally, though I am not an okra person, the fried okra was tasty and well prepared. If you're eating in Hamilton, Walt's is someplace you should try. This restaurant is now a tie for first place with my other local favorite. Update: I returned for a second visit and am still as pleased as I was for the first visit. If anything, our service was better, and the food was fantastic. Still raving over the Tater Skins w/ brisket. Yum.

This place smelled great when you walk in. The service was kinda slow should have gotten an appetizer. Ordered a salad and it was still good. id recommend and definitely come back.

Came here to watch the NBA playoffs with some friends, the atmosphere was great with lots of large TVs around. The food, however, was really disappointing. I ordered the brisket with green beans and sweet potato casserole and the wings to start.The wings were far and away the best part of the meal, get them smoked! Unfortunately, that's where the good stuff ends. The brisket was way too dry and bordering on inedible. The green beans were soggy, extremely unappetizing and clearly from a can. The sweet potato pie was okay, but nothing special. The smoked wings were good, but not worth a return trip, skip Walt's unless you're dying to watch a game.
