4 Rivers Smokehouse

Definitely, one of the best BBQ places in Orlando. I just moved here so I have not tried many other BBQ restaurants in the area but this place is worth trying. The food was amazing. The burnt ends, Texas sausage and smoked turkey were amazing. The staff was very nice and the atmosphere was inviting. What blew me away was the pricing. Normally, BBQ places can get expensive but this is reasonably priced and you leave full. Definitely, my new go-to BBQ spot. I highly recommend it

Food is great, but how it’s cooked may vary based on who’s in the kitchen that day. I got an all veg meal of the burnt ends sandwich, Mac and cheese, coleslaw, and fries. This is my second visit. Burnt ends—amazing. So good. Well made. Fries were overcooked my first time there and cooked just right this time. Mac and cheese was undercooked this time but tasted amazing my first time. Coleslaw was good. I’d come back.

Amazing brisket that start at 4am... Pork ribs are also amazing. Love this place long time local favorite as well .

I should have known better when the place was empty at a peak hour, and the restaurant was empty. Find somewhere else. Unless you like cold dry food, sweet Collard greens and jalapeños in your cornbread, slimy coleslaw and Dry service. Great atmosphere though.

I had an amazing experience at 4 Rivers Smokehouse thanks to two outstanding employees — Zaria and Gabby (with the glasses). From the moment we stepped up to order, they were incredibly patient and polite, taking the time to walk us through the menu and make sure our meal was prepared exactly how we wanted it. Their customer service was truly exceptional — they maintained a professional and friendly demeanor the entire time, even we came in 10 minutes before closing. It’s rare to come across team members who are not only efficient but also genuinely kind and attentive. Zaria and Gabby made our visit feel personal and welcoming, and they represent the kind of service that keeps customers coming back. Huge thanks to them both!

This is the first bbq restaurant i have been to with the build it quick concept. The best way to explain this is the Chipotle of bbq joints. The usual offering of ribs, pulled pork, brisket, and burnt ends is on offer so you can get your bbq fix satisfied. All the meets we well coooked but could have used more smoke. Probably only downside to this concept is you won't get that smoky flavors as the long smoke pits. All the sides were well done and well seasoned. The bbq beans, collards, greens, and corn bread were excellent. The Mac and Cheese was the only so so item we had, but the kids liked it. Good place for good bbq on the run.

Friendly staff and fast service. Clean and relaxed environment. Meats were good but not as hot and fresh as expected. Sides of fries and okra were lukewarm and soggy. Potentially good have been great if hot and fresher. First time here and I liked mission BBQ better.

The food isn't bad but not my choice when I think bbq. My wife loves it so guessing I'm just overly picky especially being someone who grills a lot. The sauces definitely compliments well and can mask what I feel is kinda bland. Good smoke flavor just nothing eye grabbing. The service was awesome and extremely friendly plus helpful. The environment was awesome and inviting. I do recommend however so don't want this review to be viewed as negative or not enjoyable, just wasn't my cup of tea. Also, the bread pudding came in CLUTCH...

We came here after checking out another bbq and finding parking was difficult so we made our way to 4 Rivers. Their building is nice, large and Airy with both an indoor and an Outdoor seating place. You order like you're in a cafeteria, and they plate your food. The brisket is really nice, especially with the mustard sauce. Their Mac n Cheese was a disappointment, buty husband said the okra made up for it

I don't know if I have the words to express how much I love this place and how there's rarely ever a time we don't come here when we visit FL ( the answer is one time and I was not a happy camper ) This time around I did their 1x2 platter and got Burnt Ends (it's my go to every time) for my meat of choice. Then for my sides I decided to try their Smokehouse Corn, which was DELISH, and their Southern Green Beans. Overall I was very happy with my choices because I felt, and this might sound weird, everything complemented each other so well in my mouth. Hey I told you it would sound weird but you get what I mean right . The smokiness from the meat with the light but flavorful sides put me in a state of absolute bliss. My husband got the same platter as me but chose the smoked turkey for his meat of choice and got the fried okra and BBQ Beans for his sides. We always share sides though so we can have a little of everything and personally it's my favorite way to enjoy eating here. The service is always friendly, there is ample seating inside and out, it's always clean/tidy, parking is a breeze and we know we'll always leaving with happy and full bellies. This place never disappoints and I'm so excited for the next time we can come back!!

Usually it's really good, but last 3 times brisket wasn't even hot enough, today I didn't feel the salt on the food. Service it's ok, like fast-food, Ambience it's good with sharable tables!

When you walk in, you go into a line to order at a counter. There is a great variety to choose from. The barbecue sauce on the chicken is amazing. That is saying a lot because I'm very particular about my sauce. The fried okra and french fries are also very good. There is plenty of seating inside and out. The tables are long so it is possible to share the tables with people you do not know. They offer a military discount and have a rewards program.

We love when we are in Longwood around a meal time. We had. Group of 12 for lunchtime and were able to find a table quickly. Staff was attentive, restaurant and bathrooms were clean. The Six Shooter, no jalapeños, is my new go to.

We came here with family while they were in town. We enjoyed our visit here! There was plenty of seating both indoors and outside on the patio. The line to order moved quickly and our food came out in a reasonable time! We all really enjoyed our food! I got the BBQ melt with pulled pork and loved it! We also tried the oatmeal cream pie dessert and enjoyed that as well. Overall the food and service was excellent and we will definitely be back again when in the area!

We ordered the two meat , two sides combo . I was stunned that the rib portion was exactly 2 ribs !!!!! I have never ordered two single ribs my entire life . The smallest portion size I've that I've seen . Taste was good but portion size needs to be reevaluated. Definitely not value for money

was excited to try it as this was our first visit. but sadly, we will never visit again. The seating area was dirty. The food was less than mediocre. The best thing you can hope to enjoy are the baked beans. we sampled the ribs, the burnt ends, the smoked sausage, the pulled chicken and brisket. they don't weigh any of the meat so I don't know why they advertise weighted portion sizes. All of it was lacking seasoning and pretty bland for the most part. The collard greens and green beans were bland. The mac & cheese was mush and you don't get garlic toast or cornbread with your order.

We were so happy, we are keto lifestyle people and being able to order just the stuff we can eat ala cart was awesome! In addition ordering by the pound is great for what to bring to a party! It's delicious. You will be the life of the party. Make sure you bring a couple menus, because people are going to ask where you got it.

Got here early opening, and were quickly attended to. It's such a great setup, and the food was amazing! Our first time visiting this location, and not disappointed. It's certainly our favorite BBQ anytime we vacation in Orlando.

Visited today, for chain bbq, it is decent and our party of four (and a baby) we all agreed, we'd return if in town. Nothing was mind blowing but as far as chains go, it was on the higher end. Everything was cooked well, seasoned well, we tried almost everything between us (not everything pictured). My biggest qualm is we ordered 1/2 rack of ribs, 1/2 chicken and 1/2 lb of brisket as our proteins and the "1/2 lb" of brisket was questionable at best (see photo). In addition to what was pictured, we also tried the fried okra, grits, burnt ends, corn side, mac n' cheese. There wasn't anything we didn't like. The place was clean and the service was friendly and accommodating.

I came here for the first time and I was pretty happy with my food. The restaurant has a chipotle style ordering system. The place is very clean and is comfy. I would say my expectations for the Mac & cheese were high and I was kind of let down. The Mac & cheese was a bit watery. The bbq melt was super good though! I would definitely get the melt again

Walked in and walked up to the counter, staff didn't acknowledge that we were there he just was focused on making the order for the people in front of us. They were out of Mac and cheese so I tried the cheesy grits and okra. They were both really good I got the brisket sandwhich as my main. They have a great selection of desserts next to the register. Some things to note is they close early at 8pm and they're not open on Sundays. They food was great but the staff wasn't very friendly. Will be back to try more food items. The ambiance is very Texas, country style restaurant.

Smells wonderful looks delicious. Bread pudding, pull pork sandwich, collards with cornbread and corn. Plus an extra dessert a cheese cake pecan crust. Let's eat... DELICIOUS

The Food is amazing! It is our favorite BBQ Restaurant. We are BBQ connoisseurs as I have previously worked at a large, popular BBQ joint out West. We love the origins of this company and John Rivers giving and charitable soul. The restaurant is clean and modern with plenty of southern touches. There's every a sink to wash your hands after. For BBQ, if it ain't messy, it ain't good! We tried the BBQ Melt which was amazing with pulled pork, caramelized onions and cheese. Like a delicious grilled cheese with BBQ. The sweet potato casserole is always a fave. It's my honeys' favorite side. I tried the Texas Destroyer sans jalapeños. It had brisket and provolone cheese on a Brioche bun. I had my favorite sides of course. The Corn and the BBQ baked beans are my absolute favorite. That corn is so magical. I don't know what they put in. It may be a little bit of pixie dust. I used to work at a Famous Dave's in Las Vegas, so I'm very familiar with barbecue restaurants and I love barbecue as a southern girl but this place with its background, his values the food and it's locally owned by a person who lives in Orlando. It's amazing. I remember right after the pulse shooting in downtown Orlando they had an event at their downtown location every penny that was raised that weekend went to the families of the victims. John Rivers was there busing tables cleaning the place up you wouldn't even even know that that was the man who owned this restaurant. I love me some 4 Rivers. The food is superb! We got the warm cookie as well. They will give you a table tent so so they know to bring you your warm cookie when you are ready after your meal. All in all if you're in the Orlando area there's a 4 Rivers near you! There's also a four Rivers in Coral Springs. It's the first one that isn't in the Orlando area.

I had the fatty juices brocket. Soft meat slices. The cheesy grits were good. If your a bbq head, then come out to this place.

TL;DR: solid BBQ if you know which ones meats to stick with. Sides were meh Nice spacious area and fast casual format. Service was nice and fast. FOOD: ~Beef Brisket (lean) (1/5): so dry and tough. I think this may be the default when you order brisket ~Beef Brisket (moist) (4.3/5): So much better. Tender and flavorful with nice fatty pieces ~Burnt ends (2.8/5): Good flavor, but was a little too burnt and chewy ~St Louis Ribs (4/5): Really good, had good texture. Fall off the bone but still had a good chew ~Pulled Pork (5/5): So good ~BBQ Baked Beans (3.8/5): Great texture and flavor. Basic but solid ~Sweet potato casserole (4/5): loved how forward the sweet potato flavor was. Not super sweet ~Roasted Corn (2/5): Corn looked/tasted like it came from a frozen bag and was dehydrated/dry ~Collards (3/5): solid but nothing special ~Bread pudding (3/5): Wasn't sure about this one since it was on the sides list. But definitely more like dessert than a side. Still good and love raisins ~Warm cookie (4/5): Gets delivered to your table all nice and warmed up. Cookie was large and tasty. Reminded me of Levain Solid spot if you stick to the meats you like

We had the beef brisket at 5:30 pm and it was so dry and tough I asked to exchange it for pulled pork. The pulled pork was good. The burned ends were a bit too burned. The sides were good. Overall not a good experience especially as Four Rivers is so well known. Cannot recommend now. Hope they improve.

I ordered a Pulled Chicken with Smokehouse Corn and BBQ Beans - They were absolutely delicious! I recommend trying these with the hot sauce they serve if you like spicy food! The service was quick and friendly. The ambiance was fair. Highly recommend!

BBQ goodness is something that you just want sometimes and why not go to the place down the street for that! Coming here I wasn't sure what to expect but what I found was some yummy Q and a super friendly staff that right there makes for me wanting to come back as all who I engaged were very nice helpful and quick to know any questions I might have! So of everything I went with the two choices with some pulled pork, sausage, burnt ends and the sides all of which was super yummy like everything had a good flavor to it and I really can't say I liked one more than the other because they were all good! As for the sides it was all about the Mac and cheese and the baked beans both were very tasty and quite good making for a yummy BBQ experience all around! The apple crumble was also very yummy and just totally hit the spot afterwards as it was literally the icing on the birthday cake lol! All of their BBQ sauces were also very yummy each with their own unique flavor like that's what just adds that much more zest to already good Q! Overall I'm sure I'll be back here again at some point because it's close to home has good service is very chill inside and the food was super yummy!

As usual, I followed up or along with my dear Queen Bee and her taste for something in particular. In this case, the something in particular is/was bbq, for which she's had a hankering for some time now. The place had good reviews and didn't seem like a budget buster, although the tab STILL came to $43. The decor certainly lends itself to bbq, with old pics of Kissimmee and its old, mostly long gone association with cattle ranching and rodeo. Rusty chairs and stools (deliberately so) and butcher block communal tables only help in that department. Crew seemed friendly enough from the order takers down the line to the cashier. Another lass came out to the dining room to check up on us and the other tables. Meantime, it's basically cafeteria style service as you walk down the line and they plop what you order onto a metal tray with butcher paper liner. Queen Bee got a "1x2" which is basically one meat and a choice of two sides. She got pulled pork along with sides of collard greens and bbq beans. I got the cowboy combo, which is three meats and two sides. Burnt ends, pulled pork and brisket alongside fried okra and southern style green beans. We both tasted each other's sides; only negative: her greens were too bland. Beans had quite a punch; okra was spot on, and even the Sysco truck canned green beans had plenty of porky flavor. There are several other sides to choose from as well. Onto the meats and sauces...pulled pork was a lil dry, as it normally tends to be. Fortunately they have two sauces sitting on the tables: one is their "signature" and the other is the spicier iteration of the former. I liked both quite well; even their signature sauce has a nice bite. I favored that, as the spicy stuff had a much bigger kick. That big kick detracts from the smokiness one should expect from a good bbq sauce. Personal preferences apply here, folks. Brisket was plenty yummy and not dry in the least. Here's where personal taste again matters, as one gets to choose between "moist" and "lean." The former is laced with fat and thus very tender, while the latter tends to be stringy and chewier. I chose moist, and the original sauce works well with it. Finally: burnt ends...WOW! If I had an appointment with the electric chair I'd enjoy a pound or three of these buggers as my last meal anytime! These consist in a combo of chopped brisket and pork...the bark on 'em would even make a giant sequoia jealous. Smokier than a forest fire and I really didn't need any sauce at all for these crispy, crusty croutons of barnyard bounty. Her 1x2 was $13.49 and my 3x2 was $19 and change. Add a couple of drinks and bang-zoom to $43. There are other condiments available near the beverage station along with the flatware dispenser, napkins, etc. Just next to it is a cute little hand wash station repurposed from an old barrel. Finally there are a couple lines of scripture scattered round the place along with other little lines/quotes encouraging goodness, etc. I also note that they're closed on Sundays. Without sounding off like the preacher man or whatnot, I do like that this chain attempts to espouse old fashioned good moral values and behavior. So as a once in a while treat, this ain't a bad choice at all! Despite the assembly line ordering system, this is NOT assembly line bbq by any means. There's no kinda fakery that'll get you this kinda flavor. Four stars would've been five except for a lackluster side or two.

4 Rivers Smokehouse has expanded tremendously since they first opened their first location back in 2009 in Winter Park, Florida (which is in the Orlando, Florida area) and this in itself is quite the accomplishment. I went with one of their combination platters. I had the burnt ends, pulled pork and brisket. For my sides, I went with their mac and cheese and their jalapeño peppers stuffed with cream cheese and wrapped in bacon. My first comment is that the portions are very small, especially when you consider that this place is pretty expensive when compared to other barbecue places. My plate was close to twenty dollars and the portions were ridiculously small. The burnt ends were good, but everything else was forgettable (though paying so much for at best mediocre barbecue will remain in my head for quite a bit of time). We did get the order to go, but the ambiance was okay enough. The service was also friendly enough. Unless you want to pay a premium for mediocre barbecue, I would not recommend here.

4Rivers is amazing bbq! I had the BBQ street tacos and there was a good balance of meat and topping on the three tacos. Nothing too spicy or outrageous. The kid had pork sandwich. The other had a Cuban. Yum! We love the sweet potato, fries, and Mac & cheese sides. Don't miss the sweet shop. We had to add to our order and ordered online, the lady working the pick up counter was helpful and told me to go to the counter next time ( I forgot to order fries for one of my kids. Mea culpa!) the restaurant is bright, clean and bbq- chic. I like to outdoor dining ( in the fall). Two requests: 1) Can you please bring back the cornbread tossed salad (or post the recipe on your socials). 2) Bring back the original Hello Dolly! I'll continue to look for this scrumptious dessert in all Central Florida locations! Thanks, 4Rivers!

We ordered the family meal for about $36 tonight, it came with 4 large pieces of chicken, 4 dinner rolls and two massive dives of mac and cheese. We also got a half rack of ribs on the side. The seasoning in the meat was very good and the Mac and cheese was average. We did curbside pick up and the chicken was a bit dry - they also didn't have pulled chicken which was what my original order was.

I'm a fan of 4 Rivers, however this particular location I'm not too fun off. I love Tampa location, friendly and they give you a good size food portion. I was surprised to see almost half of the amount of turkey for our order compared to what we usually get served in Tampa. Food portion can definitely improve to make it uniformly in every location.

Excellent food. Ribs were soft and relatively fat free and seasoned just right. Chicken was also moist and perfectly seasoned. Loved the brisket and how it sorta melted in the mouth. The pulled pork was a bit salty but also was very tender and with the right level of liquid. Beverage was light in the carbonation but tasted ok. Cornbread was pretty Sahara desert dry and did not eat it. Dinner rolls were ok. Mac and cheese was creamy and cheesy but also salty. The sweet potato casserole was excellent!! The service was a highlight and they were very helpful and extremely courteous. The ambiance....its 4 rivers bbq and so hard chairs and plastic forks BUT very clean and large enough for large groups and there is an outside patio.

Don't let the fact that this restaurant is counter service deter you from coming! My husband and I shared the ribs and brisket and they were outstanding! Some of the best we've had in awhile. There was quite an array of sides to choose from. I was even allowed to sample a few. The food was hot, fresh and delicious... the ribs and brisket were delicious! Now, let me share the service! Before heading to the counter, we spoke with Z. She was an outstanding ambassador of the restaurant, and set us straight about their food and what she enjoyed most. At the counter upon this ordering, we were greeted by Xaria! She was outstanding as well, allowing us to sample some items that we were very curious about. My husband and I tried the bread pudding and it was warm and oh-so delicious. We were able to seat ourselves outdoors (they have ample, air condition seating inside as well), and enjoy a fast and delicious homemade meal! Don't pass on this one! We will be back, this place is smokin' good!

This newer location is extremely clean, the entire time there were workers cleaning and straightening up. We even saw them wiping the sauce bottles that were on the tables. They were pretty quick with the food. But only downside they have no coke products :( Food was good

Good late night visit - never knew they had a to-go window which was great to know. I appreciated that I saw the worker put meat on my plate and when he noticed a large fatty piece he put it to the side and went back to give me more meat. Other places would just slap on what was scooped, I feel like I got value for my purchase. Love that you have cherry soda as an option too. Only mishap was we were given a 1x2 instead of the 2x2 we requested and didn't realize until we sat, didn't want to go back up to complain as they were getting ready to close.

The food tastes fresh and hot. The prices are good for a barbecue spot. The service is really fast and kind. The atmosphere is fun with food network and basketball on the tvs. Definitely recommend!

You can NEVER go wrong when you decide to get 4 Rivers! I ordered online and when I came to pick up my order they made it incredibly easy because on the side of the restaurant they have their one little section for pick-ups! I ordered my favorite which was the 3 sliders with the burnt ends and bread pudding! You can order the sliders with any meat you want but I definitely recommend the burnt ends! Everything on the menu is absolutely mouthwatering. I can't wait to come back again for lunch!

I need to be clear this is the Kissimmee location. I hear others are much better. Going to go with 4* as I think 3 might be a bit unfair. Basic fast-food BBQ - Good, but nothing special. Large, open dining area with plenty of seating inside and out with the typical western theming. They have a decent variety of BBQ options on their menu including some alcoholic beverages. I had the Brisket sandwich (moist): very tender, but lacked flavor without sauce. They have their 'Signature' - mild with a bit of a tang and a 'Hot' that has more tang, but not hot by any means. Not sure if it is plain is by choice or is it just their technique. Same went for the collard greens. Cooked fine, but again plain. I added salt. I also had a Dolly bar. This was actually really good. One thing I thought was a nice touch was the hand washing basin located near the soda/condiment station. Note: If your picking up 'to go' its on the outside to the right.

We haven't been back to 4 Rivers in a couple of years, today was a nice cool rainy day. To get a couple hot sandwiches I'd pulled pork for me, and brisket slices for my husband. Let's start off by saying SERVICE was spot on, even at this busy time ! Food was fresh, & hot, not held over from yesterday/or the weekend ! We did take out ( we had our dog in the car) Yes I do know we could have eaten outside.... But raining. I had a side of southern green beans which were Really Tasty !! Ron had Fried Okra which was Hot & delicious Yeah yeah I know most people think yuck, but try them Delicious and nutritious !

So we came here as this place was voted one of the best bbq in America back in I think 2019 or 2020. Having said that, this place is in Kissimmee and not Orlando which was the original review from best bbq. We walked in and the place is a order at the front and sit down place. We met the workers who were very nice, friendly and allowed me to sample the burnt ends and the veggie burnt ends. They both were good and I will elaborate further on the meat burnt ends. We ended up ordering a 2x2 as they don't allow ribs with their platters. With the 2x2 I ordered brisket and burnt ends. With the sides being beans and collard greens. I ordered a side of ribs as well. My wife also got a piece of corn bread also had to order separate. The brisket was good. Not to tough more mushy then anything, creamy texture. The burnt ends, some pieces were dry, some were moist some were mushy. Not consistent. Tasted good. The ribs were a bit of a let down. Some parts moist mostly dry. They did fall off the bone. Which was weird. I don't know how else to explain it. The collard greens were ok nothing great. Not much vinegar taste to it. Bland is a better explanation. The beans were delicious, maybe some of the best I've had. The prices weren't ridiculous which is good. Overall I'd give this place a 4.25.

Excellent ambiance for a bbq place. Food is always great. Not the same as smoking things at home, but pretty good for a restaurant. Sides are all pretty tasty. Desserts are always excellent. Service is quality every time as well. Only bad thing here is the parking, as the gym next door is always crowded.

Over seasoned. Way over salted and overrated. I've been to a few of these. The brisket has always been dry as in sitting too long. Tastes like the cook everything at once so by late afternoon, everything tastes old.

The style of the restaurant was not what I expected. I was expecting a Sonny's type of restaurant, like a sit down and order your food versus a hot bar, subway style but barbecue. The place appeared decently clean from what I can see with the eye. The server was pretty nice. They allow you to sample foods so I sampled the Mac & cheese & pulled chicken. The Mac & cheese was good if you enjoy frozen dinner/boxed tasting Mac. The pulled chicken was tasty, but potent in flavor. I could forsee it getting nasty if I had gotten an entire serving. I opted for chicken strips (not the kids) & fries to be safe. I was unaware a difference even existed between the gourmet chicken strips and children's until someone brought me the gourmet strips and made me aware that I had received the kid's strips. Surprisingly, I enjoyed the kid's strips much better than I did the gourmet strips, as they were touch & kinda lacked seasoning. If you are looking for fries that are crispy on the outside & tender inside, these ain't it. They're hard as hell & they seem to not serve them hot. Portion sizes are extremely small for the price, but I suppose it'll take away your hunger pains. To my surprise, I was craving their mac & cheese one day, so I would return for the Mac & a sample of the pulled chicken because baby that's all you need on the pallet.

Went in today to try the pilgrim and it just wasn't what I expected. Half the sandwich seemed to have more of the cranberry flavor, but even then I wasn't a fan of the sandwich; it was bad but it wasn't what I pictured either, I'd give it a 3/5. It was about $10, a decent price for a decent size sandwich! Other than that, I had the delicious baked beans, which were super yummy! I think I'll just stick to the classics at 4Rs next time, but I wouldn't shoot anybody down from trying the pilgrim!

For about a year or two I've always seen 4 rivers right next door to the crunch fitness I go to, and I never really was interested in going after a workout, but something today changed my mind. I think the smell had a real good reason for me wanting to try some of their food! First and foremost is they definitely have some great brisket grilling and BBQing since you're able to smell it as soon as you walk inside. Staff were very friendly and gave us inputs on some sides. In particular one employee gave us a sample of their bread budding and my friend and I wasn't a fan of it, but definitely the courtesy and hospitality is what counts ! I personally ordered the brisket tacos served with some cottage cheese, pico, flour tortilla, and of course smoked brisket. I paired that with some Mac and cheese and some Texas corn bread. For the most part I enjoyed the meal, but I would say I wasn't entirely a fan of the tacos since it does give off a different taste than what I was expected, but maybe it could've been preference. Overall Smoked brisket tasted delicious ! All in all it cost about $15 for all of the food items which isn't too bad for what you get. I definitely recommend their signature sauce since it gives a great sweet BBQ taste with your meal. As far as location, great spot, and good marketing scheme since once you get out the gym, it's one of the first things you smell and if you're hungry... then maybe it'll draw you into some of their great menu items! Parking is very easy since it's located next to a couple stores as well, so plenty of places to park up and grab a bite!

I'm a regular at this spot whenever I'm in the mood for some BBQ. The flavors are simply incredible. You know the food is good when you're licking every last bit off your fingers, resisting the urge to just use your napkin. My go-to order includes their mouthwatering ribs, brisket, baked beans, and creamy Mac n cheese. A combination that never lets me down. The star of the meal that makes it everything , is their signature BBQ sauce. It's the only sauce I get to make up my meal. I have done pick up and I've dined inside. The service is amazing. The workers made sure to check up on my family and I occasionally making sure everything is alright with our meal. When doing pick up, even late at night, they manage to make my order asap and it still tastes exceptional. This is definitely the place to go if you feel for some finger-licking good BBQ.

None of us felt like cooking today and we wanted something we have t had in a while. We ordered 4rivers for pick up and came back home. Any one who lives in central Florida knows, brisket with their bbq sauce always does the trick. Food was scheduled for 6:50 we arrived at 6:55, no wait the food came right out. Enjoyed these delicious sliders with two sides, baked beans and the oh so delicious bread pudding. I forgot that pickup is located behind this specific location.

I said 3 stars, because the Mac n cheese was to watery. There was something yellow in the chicken tenders, but it might have bin the batter. When I went to go get a drink there was no water, I was really mad.But overall it was good.

Ordered St. Louis ribs, corn and cheese grits. I am gluten free with a serious allergy. Their menus marks what is gluten free and what is not. I wanted French fries as my side which are marked gluten free l, however when double checking I was told they are fried with everything else making them cross contaminated! Not gluten free! My ribs were so tough it was hard to eat. They were also so peppery my mouth was on fire! My husband got the same ribs so I tried on me if his and while they were still very rough, they were not peppery. Not sure what was on mine. The cheese Fritz were cold and gross.

Hadn't been here in a few years. Was craving bbq and we were near by so we stopped in for lunch. It was a bit busy but service is fast. Food was just as delicious as I remember it. Only complaint is that they should serve more meat with the meals as the price is a bit on the higher end for a quick service bbq, luckily we chose the option with the 3 sides so that helped and the sides were a good portion. But none the less it was good and we enjoyed it!

Wow I used to go to 4 rivers a lot but lots has changed. Through the years. The food flavor has definitely dropped gradually. This visit we experienced a case of them forgetting to bring the food to the table. We got some items... had to tell them we never got some items... as half the party was almost done I asked where the other order is and they said they had to re issue the order. Also no Jalapeños available and no fresh cookies. All in all it was disappointing the quality used to be #1 in FL my opinion now it is pretty average if not below. So said cause I was a huge 4 rivers fan for years.

We have been to 4 Rivers several times, most times good, but when we ordered food for our office, there were several items missing, with all that said, we came here for lunch on a Monday, the restaurant was pretty full but service was fast and friendly, the food was very good, I had the vegan burnt ends platter with extra fries and my husband had the pork bbq sandwich. I have always loved the side dishes here, my favorite is the sweet potato casserole. My husband is a bbq fan and really enjoyed his sandwich, the vegan platter was just as good as I remember.

This is the go to spot for amazing barbecue in central Florida. I honestly can not give enough praise to this location. My fiancé and I find ourselves going here more frequently than we'd probably like to admit. Affordable pricing, great portion sizes, vast menu with multiple options for everyone, and always super friendly and helpful staff. The unique indoor seating does foster a sense of family; while you don't necessarily get your own table always, you definitely get enough space to enjoy your meal, barbecue sauce and all on your face, without getting judged by surrounding patrons. You happen to have a girlfriend, fiancé, wife that's pregnant? Heck, maybe you are pregnant yourself. Don't forget to mention this and receive a free dessert of your choice! If you are ever craving some fresh barbecue, try not to pass this place up!

I love bbq!! It's such a treat to be able to get good brisket at a reasonable price and with three sides too?! It's such a steal! The customer service here also is great and the employees were helpful. The brisket was juicy and yummy and the sides were also absolutely delicious. We ordered the collard greens, macaroni and cheese, fried okra, and cornbread. Everything here was perfect and the portions were so generous. Every bite was perfect and I felt like I was in heaven! Definitely a go to spot for me now if I ever come back to Orlando!!

WOW. Stopped here by luck! Waiting for catch a flight home and wow! Everything was delicious! The burnt ends were sooooo good! Must try if in the area! Great prices too. Bbq is usually really expensive. Also, they have a Bible verse on the wall! Which we love!
