We stopped back at Jake’s Rib today the last and only time we had been there was 35 years ago. My wife was from OK and she took me there on my first visit. When we scheduled this trip back to OK Jake’s was on top of our list of things to do. They did not disappoint at all. From the friendly greeting we received when we walked in to the quick service by our server. The food was a good as we had remembered. The ribs were amazing the slaw and all of our sides were the best. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and couldn’t leave without a wonderful bowl of apple cobbler with a big scoop of ice cream. Can’t wait to stop by again sooner next time. Do t pass this gem up stop and get some great food and hospitality.

Absolutely the best bbq I've had in years!! Visiting from Nebraska and would come back for it again. The ribs were outstanding, as was the slaw. Yum all the way around.

The food was horrible. We both ordered smoked Turkey, very dry was sent back. We order sliced pork and sloppy Jake's both were extremely fatty . Curly fries came out cold twice. Would not recommend this place at all. We waited 45 minutes for crap food.

The food was excellent and the prices were cheap. Very rare in 2025. Service was great. Ribs 8.5/10, Smoked Bologna 9.5/10, Tater Tots 9.5/10. And the portions were HUGE. Will remember and will come back.

It was very good! Sauce was absolutely wonderful, ribs were really good, bread was good, and a mountain of curly fries so that there is a guarantee of leftovers! 😳 Skylie was a great server with a great smile!

One of the best BBQ joints in Chickasha. The last time I went I have Chicken Fried Steak, Mashed Potatoes with cream gravy and I forget what it's called on the menu, but it's like hush puppies only they was in stick form.

I love Jake's. Beeneating here for 40 years. They have the best ribs around. They still serve full size ribs. None of the St Louis style ribs the the ends cut off. The potato salad, fried zucchini, green beans, and fries are still awesome.

Very friendly very local. I love sitting by the fireplace with my meal. Even when it's not lit. Just something about it. Lots of fries. Always enough for the price. My sister and I were celebrating our birthday and my dad for celebrating Father's Day. The fryer went out so it became a long shift some people weren't happy but i like their dogs i was willing to wait for it to get fixed.

Seriously 45 years Jake's serving bbq! Think about it and drive to Jake's Rib in Chickaswa! So I always rate my review for a given restaurant as an individual experience. This was top notch, as good as I've had! And, I grew up on Knotty Pine BbQ in Tulsa (long gone but clearly not forgotten) I had the "so well priced" rib sandwich, which is as any real bbq place menu is just ribs with white bread and I had a side of mashed potatoes and corn on the cob... Was a Thursday at 2:00 and was packed. Everything my 2 other Buddies and myself ordered EXCELLENT! Family run and super friendly. I've eaten the best and this food is right there. Support the legacy before it's a memory!

We got there and got seated immediately. It took 5-10 minutes for our server to find us. We ordered and then sat to wait. After about 30 minutes we asked our waitress how much longer and she said "It will be a little bit longer". We sat for another 15 and then asked if we could just get our food to go. She said sure, then we waited another 10-15 minutes and called it. Be honest and realistic with your customers so they can make a decision. Their food might be great but we'll never know.

So let's go pros first: - You get free white bread with 2 bbq sauces to try! - Massive amounts of fries from just one order. - Portions are INSANE! Like, could feed a small army of 27 with one meal. - The side dishes are decent! - waitresses are very kind! - Prices really aren't too bad! Now for the cons: - the food is really... bleh. A bit flavorless and underwhelming, almost as if it's been cooked several times. - bathrooms are 1 per person, and they are tiny when having to take your small kids to potty. Overall, not a bad experience but I think you gotta' know what to expect when eating jakes and that it's really for the experience of massive meals and not so much the food itself.

It is a very popular local eatery. I found the food to be ok and not great. I would eat here again. As I am visiting the area it came as a high recommendation but did not meet the expectation set. The wait staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Everyone was hospitable and nice. The order of curly fries can be shared with at least 3 adults! Huge portion of curly fries.

Went in on a Saturday afternoon and the place was really busy, and it was easy to see why. Food was flavorful, portions were generous, and the service was friendly. Were the ribs as good as some of the top joints in KC? No. But they were quite large and meaty with good flavor, and the barbecue sauce that came with them was delicious. I really liked the side options, and had some really tasty fried okra and jalapeño cornbread hush puppies. All three in our party went home with leftovers and the food was very affordable. Glad we stopped in!

Carl M.

Yelp
Taste of food was very good. Skin on ribs was tough. Pork chops were a little dry. Okra, zucchini and baked potato were all good. We didnt have the curly fries but saw a few orders and they were massive. Ambiance was super casual. Service was friendly but overwhelmed. Very busy restaurant. Wait for seating was 45 minutes. Overall was good for the price.

We were in chickasha to look at the Christmas lights and the giant leg lamp from a Christmas story which is my favorite Christmas movie and my mother in law suggested that we try Jake's bbq. So we GPSed it which is a wise thing because it's kind of hidden but wasn't hard to find if you knew where you were going. Jake's is an old school type rib joint and smelled sooo goood from the outside. We were greeted right away and sat at a table. Their menu isn't huge but that's ok there is still enough I think everyone could find something. I decided to try the rib dinner since it was Jake's ribs after all. My wife got sausage and my mom in law got a ham steak. You get sides too my mother in law got fries. This is the biggest "side" of fries I've ever seen. My wife got the potatoe salad and mashed potatoes. She said neither were bad but didn't stand out at all either. I got green beans and coleslaw. Coleslaw was awesome of the best I had. Green beans however was the opposite. My ribs themselves were ok, very dry and no rub or anything. Their bbq sauce was ok but again nothing to stand out. All in all not bad prices and you get large portions it tends to be pretty bland.

For the portion sizes, even on lunch meals, the food was very good as were the prices. It was a large restaurant which was not so apparent from the outside. The service was attentive even at a busy time. I would recommend Jake's Rib whether you live in Chickasha or are just traveling through as I was.

The food is excellent. Service is great. Has a homey feel. For seniors they have an excellent deal. One meat one side and a drink. I know it's under $10 but not sure exact price.

Delicious!! Casual, friendly service, great overall. We had not been here in many years and were so pleased to find it still as cozy and generous as we remembered.

I orders the sliced beef I had asked the waitress what it was and she stated brisket. It was not brisket and it was dry and unseasoned. All of the sides were under seasoned. The bbq sauce is more of a vinegar base just for your reference. There is a giant side of Curley fries but they are under-seasoned.

This is a place one should experience on their own. Food is good, service good. Ambiance is the selling point.

Rib jerky anyone?? These are the toughest ribs I've ever had the displeasure of eating. Spare ribs already have little meat on the bone, and to find much of it like rubber was highly disappointing. Parts even cooked until leather and inedible. They brought us replacement ribs, fresher, but again also all rubbery tough. Ribs here aren't even smoky, not sure they were even seasoned. And that wasn't all that was off with their food on our couple of visits. Okra was over-fried..Catfish soggy inside not one bit flaky..Brisket flavor weak, more like roast beef..Green beans soggy like canned..Pulled pork sandwich came already drowned in sauce. I'm not into their "M(ild)" BBQ sauce, with so much vinegar my eyes watered and it gave me instant heartburn. Curly fries are the only thing I've somewhat enjoyed here -- just the right mix of crispy, oily and fun to eat. But a single small cup of ranch (mediocre) was not nearly enough to tackle the giant loaf they serve you. The positive reviews this place gets has to be a combination of nostalgia, huge portions and value, along with the lack of options in the area. It is one of only three sit-down restaurants even open on Sundays in Chickasha. At least the service was great. But dining room is a bore. I'm unfamiliar with which style cue this is, but it surely struck out with my family.

What a fantastic gem in small town Oklahoma! This is that small town go to place worth an hours drive! For me it's a 3.5 hour drive from Dallas. I've been here 4 times now over the last two years! Consistent every trip! The catfish is fantastic, chicken fried steak was wonderful and the onion rings amazing! The wait staff of always will to help with menu questions and friendliness. Great place for an off the road out of the norm experience! Give them a try!!

Really impressed with this place! I am a big fan of and it scores a lot of points with me places that are very friendly approachable and comfortable in terms of atmosphere and aspects of presentation Etc this is certainly one of those places very friendly customer service our waitress Pat was excellent. Now past all that Certainly down to business some of the best ribs I've ever had in my whole life and curly type fries that I've had in my whole life also! Would certainly highly recommend easily five stars! My compliments to the BBQ Pitmaster, Chefs and Cooks Etc! Looking forward to next time!

Never come here it took 45 minutes just to get a appetizer just for it to be bad the ribs look terrible and it taste worse than it looks it took a hour for us to get a seat and it's not busy it has no ac in the waiting room the food is not good the fries are are hard I don't suggest this place

Deann J.

The food was so good and a lot meat on the ribs. The beans was so good to. The fries was way to much of them but good. Everything was great wish there was one in Ada. Service was great and everyone was very nice. The place very pretty and clean

Nicole D.

Food was very tasty. Nice sized portions especially the fries. Catfish was nice and crispy, and fried to perfection. Son had brisket and loved it. Ribs were Ok. didnt have much of a smoke taste but large size and sauce was tasty as well.

Bryan B.

Yelp
This place may have good cafe food but if you're looking for Great Bbq, this isn't your place. The ribs were decently cooked but I'm pretty sure they don't season their meat. They don't have brisket but have a sliced beef that is equally under seasoned. My first time here and definitely won't be back for bbq.

We walked in and were taken to a room that we were the only ones in. Ribs were tough on the outside and semi- tender on the inside. Mild BBQ sauce tasted horrible, potato salad was ok but the pinto beans were watery and without flavor. Will not be going again.

I don't give stars based on time unless... the food is bad. Honestly if I work a job that only gives me an hour for lunch I won't take a chance by going to a restaurant... especially if you know they're busy. I don't base my review on the looks of a restaurant inside or out because honestly who gives a flying fuck how it looks unless... the food is bad or the cleanliness is an issue. So the decor is out dated... WHO cares!? This is a family restaurant not a damn franchise where they always changing things around. The service was great! Our waitress was nice and easy to talk to. The food was great. Not dry, not tasteless, big ass portions and it just made my heart feel good when I saw it coming out. If you love food you will understand that statement. I love the atmosphere! It's a mom and pop type shop. If your bougie don't go. If your stuck up don't go. If your expecting America's top Chef don't go. Appreciate the time and effort put forth by the people of this establishment. It's not easy to get up and prep for the day when your a small business. My mother and husband truly enjoyed our large portion meals

Z S.

Yelp
So I will start off by saying the food portions are quite large for the money. The food tasted pretty good as well. Nice small town place - it was quite busy. The reason for the 3 stars is the unpleasant aftermath of eating here. I'm sure you're intelligent enough to understand what that means. The locals are crazy about it though. I'd pass on a second visit lol. Also yea the side of fries is a huge amount as a side to your main dish haha

Lauryn B.

Yelp
If I could give 0 stars I would. The server was amazing but the food was some of the worst barbecue I have ever had. The ribs were tough and had no flavor. The brisket was also subpar. The fries and onion rings were excellent, but for the price we will not be back.

Was in the mood for BBQ and Jakes came highly recommended. Once my husband and I drove up we can smell the bbq and it smelt so good. The restaurant is pretty big and it was busy but we were seated pretty quickly. The have the normal variety of bbq at a reasonable cost. Our waitress was so nice and answered any questions we had. We both ordered the rib dinner and we were not disappointed. The portion sizes are huge and the ribs were tender juicy and falling off the bone. I had corn on the cob and mashed potatoes they were great as well. I could not finish half of my meal it was that big . This is a definite to go place.

I've been going here since they opened. When you walk in that wonderful smell hits you in the face. We know they get busy so we went at two. Was seated immediately. The cashier and waitress were so nice. The cook came out several times and ask how things were. The portions were huge. Meat tender. Large drinks in take out cups. Loved them. We took home more fire than we could eat. The price was very inexpensive. Less than fast food and more food. I loved the decor. Western and said you're back in Oklahoma to me. Needless yo say we will be going back.

This is a 45 minute ride for us to eat here and it's well worth it. I know the name says Jake ribs but we come here for the catfish and chicken fried steak. The service here is always pleasant and on point. Plus the extra large drinking cups are a star on its own. The catfish here is breaded perfectly with just the right seasoning. The country fried steak comes out in two pieces and the gravy downcast taste like a can.

Jake's is a Chickasha classic and I've been visiting here since I was a little kid. My memories are of the huge bush of french fries, the cheese bites and great barbecue and sides. At our most recent visit, the food didn't live up to my memory or expectation and we were all a little disappointed. The ribs were tough, the sliced pork and sausage links were greasy and the corn tasted terrible (like how do you mess that up?). It just doesn't feel the same and I'm praying for a come back.

I have known many people who frequent Jake's when they go to Chickasha. It has been years since I have been there, but we stopped in again when we were in town this week. We were pleasantly surprised at how good it was. Portion sizes are huge, so consider sharing or taking some leftovers home. The service was friendly and accommodating. I recommend Jake's if you are ever in Chickasha!

Great food and the service is outstanding. I had the ribs, fried green beans and a salad. I peppered my salad in the picture it didn't come that away. It's fabulous and I'm glad I stopped.

No thank you! Very disappointed! Took over an hour to get seated and this is after they told us that it would be 30 minutes. Ribs and brisket were horrible- I can make better ribs on my pellet smoker. Needless to say $120 later I walked out with a disappointment. Don't wast your time or your money by buying into the hype!

Thomas E.

Yelp
Jake's ribs is a good place to eat. Food isn't as good as other BBQ places but it is good. Unique options in sides and appetizers make it worth checking out. With Ribs in the name I would assume ribs would be their top item. Again it was good but not the best I had ever had. Still worth checking out.

Very big portions. If you have a big family, it's a good place to go for a good price. Fries are massive, you get enough to feed 4-5 people for one order. Fries were undercooked and greasy. Chicken fried chicken was okay. Pulled pork sandwich was good, great sauce. Overall alright place. The customer service and staff are super nice and are great!

Hollie L.

Yelp
The amount of food you get for the price is outrageous. Sometimes i wonder how they stay in business. The single order of fries is enough for 4. But anyhow, the smoked sausage is fantastic. Potato salad is creamy and delicious. Coleslaw as well.

This was our first trip to Chickasha ans Jake's Rib. Wow! The food was incredible, and the portions are huge. The ribeye was the best steak I've had in a very long time. The staff was friendly and on top of everything. It's well worth the 60 mile drive from home!!

Shawnie D.

Yelp
My server was great and very knowledgeable when I asked about gluten free items. The hot BBQ sauce contains gluten but the mild doesn't. One star deducted because the BBQ sauce has a strong vinegar taste. Otherwise, everything else was good and I didn't get sick.

Rusty S.

Yelp
Not the worst bbq ever, but certainly the worst I've had in Oklahoma. I paid extra for "seasoned" ribs. It was just their regular ribs they salted and peppered after they plated it and charged me an extra 2-4 bucks for them to salt and pepper it.. give me a break. I've never liked the rest of their meat, their brisket has always been rubber slicked too thin and terrible. Now even their ribs suck! I came here for the sides in the past, but the last several years even those suck now and the portions are not insane like they used to be, yet gone up in price. Disappointing because now that Roys is closed you can't get good bbq in town. But this place definitely isn't the answer. Meat quality is just terrible.

K S.

Yelp
In general, really not good. Smoked turkey sandwich was grilled didn't really taste smoked. BBQ sauce on the Pulled pork sandwich completely mixed into the meat. It was way too much sauce and had a funny taste. The size of the sides was very inconsistent. A side of fries was HUGE. Enough to feed 4 people. Side of okra and green beans was a enough for one person. All sides cost the same amount. Pink lemonade tasted off, as if it was expired. Water did not have a pleasant taste to it. Chicken strips were decent. Ketchup tasted fake and had an off flavor. Service was good but a little slow.

Crystal M.

Yelp
Would NOT recommend eating here! The ribs were tough and the green beans were cold. Did NOT like their BBQ sauce. We ordered ribs and chopped brisket (ribs were tough like I said, and the chopped brisket was swimming in their not so good sauce). We took the left overs home in hopes of salvaging the food we paid for. I hate wasting food but, if I cant get the ribs more tender and bake out some of the sauce from the chopped brisket, it will go in the trash. The fried Okra was good and the Arnold Palmer Tea was good but that was it. There are other posts just like this that we saw before hand but, thought we would try it anyway because we aren't picky eaters. Sad we waisted time and money on less than mediocre BBQ. We could have saved time and money just going to McDonalds and been more satisfied. Thats not say much for either company.

Came in on a Friday with a party of 10 and we were seated immediately. Our server was super nice and very quick. I ordered the 14 oz ribeye with armadillo eggs, wings, and okie fries. All the food was fresh and tasted great. The Portion sizes were extremely generous and to top it all off, you can take the quality plastic "jakes rib"cup home as a souvenir (I'm not from Oklahoma) . Would recommend to anyone for a great tasting meal at a great value. Two thumbs up!

The only thing that I'm impressed by is 1. The portions and 2. How long Oklahomans are willing to wait for mediocre BBQ. The wait was insane and there wasn't anywhere to sit. So we huddled together getting hungrier and hungrier as mountains of curly fries passed by. The hostess was so sweet and kept us entertained for awhile, but we ended up waiting for over an hour. We finally get a table, and the server did not have the same cheerful attitude as the host. We had to ask a lot of questions because we had never been there before and she didn't volunteer any info about the menu. She seemed irritated that she wasn't able to take our order and run. We got the Okie Fry appetizer, which is slices of fried potato, cheese, and bacon. We ate every bite because we were so hungry, but the fries were not cooked well. The slices were all at different thicknesses, so some pieces were burnt and some were raw. I ordered the fried catfish for my entree with fried zucchini and spicy cornbread. My boyfriend had the ribs, brisket, curly fries, and potato salad. All of the portions were insanely large, but really weren't even that good unless you are starving to death. (And of course everyone is because of the lengthy wait after a drive to chickasha) The catfish was the best part. It was much better than the ribs my boyfriend ordered. With BBQ, I expect a crispy dry spice rub on the outside of moist and tender meat with yummy sauce. Well, they have good sauce. There spicy rub I crave was nonexistent. The meat was ok, but a bit tough. If I have to come back again, at least I know to stick with the catfish.

Great food! Come hungry that's all I can say! Portions are perfect size for an all American hunger

Decent BBQ, We ordered the two meat special with 4 sides (fries, calf fries, corn on the cob, green beans). Decent amount of food. They serve a brick of curly fries. The armadillo eggs are fried jalapeños with cheese. Cheese was that processed curdled cheese, not my favorite. The ham and brisket were fine warm and a lot of it. Green beans were ok. Corn on the cob was cold and it tasted like they used margarine instead of real butter. And i put salt and pepper on it and it still was bland. Maybe go with different side than corn. Cherry pie and I cream were good.

Sandra W.

Doesn't look like much on the outside and inside and the food reflects that feeling. Bland, greasy barbecue. Nothing special. The service was great but probably won't go back
