9-4-24. Five of us dined together today. We all enjoyed our experiences. I love the decor on the walls, but not sure I care for the very open floor plan. We had a fine young man as a knowledgeable and attentive waiter by the name of Evan. I recommend. The chairs are extremely uncomfortable

ordered the combination dinner, asked for dark meat on 1/4 chiken and got white meat! The 1/4 ribs were all Fat! How do you even serve dinner like this !! On the positive side bread and cole slaw was okay . Since i dont know the cooks or the owner buying the ribs , Thank you Madison for taking my take out order!! i was so impressed with a phone call i received the next day by madison. Her efforts trying to make things right is why i changing my review. Few people in any place of work try to correct theirs or someones elses error that when its done I really appreciate it! Thank you Madison!!

Yummmmmm! We got the fried green tomatoes (the best I’ve ever had I think) BBQ ribs, brisket bleu cheese baked potato, okra, corn bread, and Mac and cheese and OMG. I left there feeling more full than I have in years because I couldn’t stop eating. Our waitress Madison was amazing!! She made our whole dining experience so pleasant. She was attentive, fast, and everything was correct. Her recommendations were on point and her conversation was refreshing. She had a lot of helpful tips for things to do in the area with my son and she asked if I wanted to put his order in right away after we were seated so he wouldn’t get bored and restless. Overall, AMAZING FOOD, AMAZING SERVICE, WONDERFUL ATMOSPHERE! The parking lot can get very crowded sometimes because it’s so good. Be prepared to possibly wait. 🥰 We’ll be back!

We were excited to try Darrell's because of the high ratings, but we were disappointed. The BBQ was over-smoked and greasy, and the side portions were tiny. Service was fair at best. Had a much better experience at another local BBQ restaurant.

The parking is terrible. The food is not amazing. Price isn’t worth it. I got the potatoe and it was dry, no butter, I had to ask for it, the brisket was thick fatty slices. The nachoes were huge but pork was not great. It’s just an average bbq place.

This is a hidden gem in Venice! Had the opportunity to eat lunch at Darrell's and found it to be amazing. The menu selection was extensive from appetizers to desserts. The Brisket sandwich was so delicious - tender, smoky flavor and with the Carolina sauce all I can say is wow! Save room for dessert. The banana pudding was creamy and sweet with real vanilla wafers stirred into the pudding. Yummy! Our server was attentive and made sure our drinks were refilled and that we had everything needed including extra napkins. I can't say enough good things about this family owned restaurant!

It’s difficult to find good bbq in Florida and this sure hits the spot! We drive down from St Pete for it. Try the Mac and pulled pork, the fried okra, and sweet tea. Even with the half portion I take food home. You’ll find generous portions and the sweetest servers.

It was a great experience. We went there looking for a good lunch and were not disappointed. Plenty of options on the menu, including options for vegetarians so there’s something for everyone. I had the meatloaf special and gumbo and both were good. Portions were large and it was more than I could finish in one sitting. Leave room for dessert if you can as the banana pudding is delicious. Service was friendly and prompt.

It was a Saturday evening and this was truthfully the third BBQ place we tried. The other two were all out of BBQ. We had the ribs and bacon-wrapped shrimp and the hungry heifer platter (a combination plate with a bit of all the menu items from “the Pit”). The bacon-wrapped shrimp were amazing. So good! I’ve had better ribs but the rub that they used was very tasty. They have three sauces on the table - sweet, Carolina, and hot. I found that a mixture of the sweet and hot sauces was best. Just not a fan of the Carolina. We had the “jar of dirt” (chocolate pudding with cookie crumbles and gummy worms) for dessert and it was rich and good. Probably should have shared two among the four of us, but leftovers are good. 😁 Service was a bit slow but maybe the waiter was new?

We are visiting from the Midwest and eat bbq a couple times a month. This is the worst bbq we have ever had. Wish we had read the negative reviews before visiting, as each one was spot on. The brisket was not edible and definitely not smoked. Nothing was smoked; we eat a lot of smoked meats and know the difference. The beans were canned, as another reviewer said. The pickles and fried green tomatos were in a beer batter with no seasoning. This is a tourist trap....and not worth the visit or the money. It is overpriced for less than mediocre food. The positive was the staff was kind and attentive, though no one questioned why a lot of our food was untouched. But, I am sure they know the quality is not good.

Darrell catered my son and daughter-in-law's wedding shower. He paid attention to every little detail. I didn't have to worry about a thing. We had pulled pork, chicken, mac and cheese, baked beans, coleslaw, cornbread, and slider rolls. We had more food than we could ever eat. My guests raved about the food! They were all able to take home a little doggy bag. We were all happy campers! Thank you, Darrell for helping me focus on making memories instead of working on all of the prep and hours of cooking.

Decided to stop by Darrell‘s after a visit to Venice Beach. It did not disappoint! It had a nice variety of items on the menu and the food was delicious with very generous portions! The chicken livers with the homemade gravy was an amazing appetizer. I ordered the chicken and ribs which was cooked perfectly, and my wife ordered the pulled pork nachos, which were enough for 4 or more people to share. We ended the meal with a recommendation of peanut butter chocolate pie from our server Lisa, who was amazing! She was very knowledgeable and friendly and accurate. Sadly, I neglected to take pictures, but I highly recommend a trip to Darrell’s and will definitely visit again The next time I am in the area.

If you're looking for phenomenal food and service without being rushed or made to feel like you're an inconvenience...this is your spot. Or if you're looking for how to treat customers....just go observe their staff and take some lessons. DARRELL'S is where it's at, my first stop if I'm ever back! Thank you all for a great experience!

We had a great meal. Sat at the bar just to have a drink before dinner, because there was a wait for a table. But enjoyed Gavin (the bartender) so much we just stayed at the bar and had dinner there. Everything was delicious. It was Friday, and we had the Fish & Chips special. We will definitely return, and most likely sit at the bar if Gavin is there. He is a hard worker, and definitely stayed busy. He’s training to be a firefighter. He will make a good one.

Our favorite place to eat in Venice Florida! The atmosphere and service were great! I was somewhat indecisive as to what I wanted to try. I ending up asking the waitress to surprise me. She brought out the brisket- It was amazing! Melt in your mouth! My teens ordered the Cajun Mac dish and the BBQ sandwich with fries, my husband got the Southern Fried Steak. We all tried and shared our dishes- sooooo good! THE CORNBREAD… the most moist & sweet ever!! We loved it here so much we returned 2 days later! We joke that we are willing to take the 18 hour road trip to Venice just to grab some Darrell’s! This place does not disappoint!!

We ordered water and lemonade to start. The mason jars they came in were very large and I did not require a refill. The food was really good … after I added the available BBQ sauce to my pulled pork. I tried the pork plain, as it was served, and it was moist and I found zero fatty pieces. The flavor of the plain pork was, just that, plain. However, once I added the BBQ and mixed it well, it was delicious. Two others in my group had the brisket sandwich and the fried chicken. Both said they would come back. As will I. I would like to try the ribs. I ordered my pulled pork with a side of potato salad and broccoli. It also came with corn bread. I was overall very pleased with my meal and the price. Our server, Lisa, was very nice and friendly. She did however forget to mention the specials to us but it would not have changed my mind and there was a board showing the specials. The owner/manager (?) came by and he was very enthusiastic and he thanked us for coming and checking to see how the food was. I also heard another young man being friendly and thanking his table for coming. The service gets 5+ stars if I could give it to them. The next time we crave BBQ, we will think of Darrell’s.

My wife had it and thought it was excellent. I had ribs, baked beans and potato salad. Ribs were tasty, juicy and fall off the bone. A real treat. Sides were both outstanding! Service was excellent.
