Looking for a great place for some Barbeque in the Bloomington area? Well look no further than Bandanas, not only is the food amazing, but the service is excellent. When you think of Barbeque in Bloomington the first thing that comes to mind is Famous Dave’s. Well now it’s time to broaden your horizons people of Bloomington. Bandanas has much better BBQ for a cheaper price. Service is really the most important thing there. The entire staff’s main concern is you. This wasn’t always the case, 5 years ago. The joint was under different management and since then it has been working its way to a better reputation. It wasn’t easy at first, changing people’s minds about a restaurant takes time and patience. The owner followed a strict code called he still practices today, the three C’s, Consistency Creates Credibility, and the idea that competition is created by yourself. The new management has totally revamped the entire business making sure the customer always come first. Customer service isn’t the only thing that brought Bandanas out of the gutter, portions are always considerably large too. Bandanas always gives you what you paid for and will assure that you never leave hungry. Bottom line Bandanas has “real” BBQ none of that fake scuzzy stuff you’ve been eating at Dave’s. Most people will swear it is the best place for BBQ in the Bloomington area. Catering is also a big part of business for them, which is always fast and hot when it arrives. The key to all of this excellent service started with the owner who actually overturned the business by himself and almost went broke. Working for the establishment and knowing all the flaws of the previous business he decided to take the risk of buying the place when it was failing five years ago. Since then he has completely turned the place around with a phenomenal management team that puts its customers first. They take time to make sure the food is perfect along with the service and because of that it has become a huge success. I definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a great place to eat.
