Hadn't been here in a minute & out of town visitors wanted ribs ....Nice atmosphere as you walk in...MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT with food 😞i immediately noticed sauce recipe is not the same and was very skimpy spread on order & the ribs & rib tips were tough as nails...you had to chew each piece to the point your jaws were sore ! Very inedible due to the toughness of the meat. Fries and corn were great, skip the corn bread and coleslaw was a little too much on vinegar side. I found a piece of chicken in my rib tips order that was very old and HORRIBLE...I still can't get the taste out of my mouth. The dining area which is a pleasant setting should have been cleared of dying flower arrangements that were spread around the area. And extremely disappointing waste of my hard earned money...won't be doing this again 😒

The restaurant needs a serious upgrade. Everything is outdated and showing signs of wear and tear, from the ceiling to the floor. The vents were filthy. The food is edible, not necessarily nasty, but definitely not delicious. The rib tips were not fresh. The mac-n-cheese was the worst. They need to close the doors, revamp the recipes, and add some touches of tlc.

I recently attended a family event hosted at this venue, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. The buffet-style food setup was convenient, the staff was attentive, and the atmosphere was perfect. The well-stocked bar and available jukebox added to the experience. The venue was impeccably clean, including frequently maintained restrooms. Thanks for a great experience, great food, and service.

I wish they could’ve heard better, I asked for two of the same orders. Like there’s one and another person with me. One and two. I guess the cashier couldn’t hear right. I had high expectations. From a friend referring this place.

This is the most ridiculous place i have ever been to.. it took them 30minutes to prepare this "meal".. they call this a hot dog... empty bun with sausage link. Also lady upfront needs some serious customer service training!

Take out 1/2 slab of ribs. Sauce was excellent but I have never had ribs with so little meat and it was shoe leather tough. The potato salad and Cole slaw were on point ! I had waited years to try them but overall was disappointed. :(

I like BBQ, a lot! I like it because Robinson’s introduced me to it as I grew up a few blocks from the original restaurant. I made it back in after moving away and I must say they have maintained there #1 status! Huge rack of ribs, well cooked, tangy sauce with a perfect pull. I had missing out since moving away. Pulled pork sandwich was great too. Juicy and flavorful.
