The last 2 times, the tea wasnt what it once was 😔 (this is the best part usually). The prices went up which is understandable but they were out of things like lemons & corn & portion size is slowly going down. But I need my tea back !

I give 4s to say it's great, I liked going there, I recommend you do too. BBQ is something of an article of faith, only the very best get 5s. They make a simple BBQ meal with solid quality ingredients. Atmosphere is down home, Florida place.

Don’t waste your time or money. I haven’t had ribs in over 20 years. Clearly there’s a reason why. We ordered the baby back deluxe pack. I got into a little altercation with the lady on the phone when I placed my order because their menu states that I get a half pound of beef, a half pound of pork and a half pound of pulled pork. However, Lady taking the order so that I only got a half pound of one meat and one meat only so I had to call and speak to the manager who is great. His name is Alan. Him and I read the menu together and he saw that there was a clerical issue with their menu and he was going to let the front office know. It was the way it was wanted to make me happy. I got all three meats. That’s why they received a 3 star is for him and him alone. But my God, the food was disgusting . There were nine of us eating and everybody had a complaint of something. The ribs were tiny like they took them off of a piglet. The mac & cheese was a disgrace. The beans were disgrace and horrible flavor. The sliced pork and sliced beef was extremely dry. Sweet potato fries were soggy and the fried corn nuggets were disgusting as well. They do have good is ranch. I will never eat ribs again. I will go by the ranch, but I will not eat there again.

From the moment we walked in, the manager was scolding the front people, who by the way were fairly young and possibly their first jobs. This is not the time and place for job training. It most definitely was a rude reflection on his management style.

3/29/24 We orderd the buffalo shrimp appetizer (hot)with our other food for carry out. We thought we would try Rib City establishment one more time since we live across the road, and during this busy weekend we thought it would be fast and simple. Our first experience was in 2018 when we first moved here and it was not a good experience AT ALL. This is the first time back since 2018 and what the wife wound up with was (9)pics.of shrimp and NO hot sauce on any of it. It's sad to pay $9.45 for 9 pics of tiny shrimp. NOTE : We will not be back. Check No. 1984086-1. 3/29/24 I would post a pic of the 9 shrimp and no hot sauce, but it wont let me on here. 😡

The chicken was raw in the middle, still bloody on the bone and had no smoke flavor whatsoever. The server was very friendly but could have been a bit more attentive. I didn't even get a refill on my tea. The atmosphere was mediocre. We had never been to rib City so we thought we'd give it a shot. We'll stick to Hogbodys.

We ordered take out on Christmas Eve. We had never eaten here before so it was our first experience. We ordered 2 lbs pulled pork, a chicken as well as a large and a medium mac cheese. The pulled pork was good and the chicken was ok. But the Mac cheese was not good at all! I spent $23 on what tasted like a knock off version of Velveeta Shells and cheese. For the price I was highly disappointed 😞 we won't be giving them a 2nd chance unfortunately it's not for us.

Came in for lunch with the family and enjoyed it. Our server was attentive and helpful. The food was tasty and the ambiance was quite country. We were all happy with our meals. Wasn’t out of this world but it was very good. My wife and I shared a rack and a half of baby back ribs and they were tasty. Their max and cheese side is really good. My dad had their brisket and he was happy with his meal. They serve pretty large drinks which is a plus and even when you manage to finish one, they are quick to refill it. Overall a good place to eat.

Service was great. Atmosphere was fine. Food was just OK. Baby backs were small. My wife and I were cracking jokes that when they said baby back they really meant baby. We did order a half slab of the spare ribs and they were good. The sides were somewhat forgettable. All in all an okay experience. The chicken thigh looked a little bloody in the joint but the breast was fine but the chicken overall needed seasoning. The hot barbecue sauce was really good. The big takeaway styrofoam cups for the drinks that they use is a nice touch.

When I first moved to fl I tried a different rib city and I was super disappointed I always wanted to try again but was scared it would be trash. Pleasantly surprised every thing was on point sliced pork was excellent fish didn't have much taste but well fried ribs were perfection without sauce and mac and cheese was actually above standard could use some corn bread and pickles but for the cost it was on point 2 adults 3 kids including 1 picky eater and we got a thumbs up
