Went there to get some boba tea for my daughters but after seeing the BBQ menu decided to try it out. Got some ribs, collard greens and some french fries. I love BBQ and my expectations are very high and this was just...ok. I have to admit that I had a strong preference for Texas style BBQ with the dry rub but this is more southern style. The meat was lacking flavor and the sauce was doing all the work. The greens and french fries...also just ok. I don't think I would see myself coming back here for BBQ.

***OLD RIBS ON THE BOTTOM & FRESH ONES ON TOP***Please be careful when going here and check your food before you leave. Ordered lunch one day and this is what happened to me.... Enjoying the ribs on top until I got to the 2nd layer on the bottom and they had to have been ribs from the day before because I ordered during lunch time between Noon and 2pm. Called into the spot to complain and was met with attitude and hung up on. Not good business practices AT ALL! Please DO BETTER AND VALUE YOUR CUSTOMERS. We do have Options, you are not doing us any favors!

I’ve been before and was pleased with my order, but yesterday ordered a brisket sandwich and it was AWFUL!! When I first opened package thought they had given me pulled pork. Had never gotten brisket that was shredded and as dried out as if it had been left on top of the counter uncovered for days!! Had always been moist, sliced brisket in the past, so not sure what was going on yesterday but I am not happy and will not be stopping in again.

Don't believe the score you see. They probably scored their own goals. The food was extremely bad. dry chicken, meat with lots of sugar, beans with lots of sugar, disgusting corn, bad

Please do not go.I have ordered from this restaurant 10+ times, in 2023. I liked their brisket sandwich. It is on dry side, but is only bbq close to me. I would always buy the combo.3 weeks ago, I called restaurant to order some food. Usually, the phone is answered by a cheerful woman.This time, a man answered the phone. He had an attitude. I asked how much was just sandwich. He told me it was same price as combo. I asked "why" ....since it was half the price of combo, on website. He hung up the phone in my face.End of short terrible story.TLDR: bad customer service, borderline racism, dry food.I won't go back. In fact, I'm a pg county business owner and I will spread this in my business network.You can't just come and set up a location and have bad customer service. This is the crux of a business. Also, I notice all their staff are not representative of community hiring (non Ados people + non latinx). We are not all inept bags of cash for you to exploit. Do better.

The brisket. The jerk chicken.They're perfect.I unfortunately moved away from the location closest to me, but I now go out of my way for the treat. I'm never disappointed.

Great full long bone ribs. The flavor on these ribs are the best in the area. The mango boba tea I had was pretty good too. This has become my go-to rib option even though I usually prefer the Baby-backs from Famous Dave's. The crazy thing is I found this place by force when I ordered Uber Eats and the delivery driver stole my food from Famous Dave's so I had to find an alternate closer location for a party I was going to. Anyway, I' glad I found them and I actually won a Rib-off on Mother's Day where me and my cousins all brought our favorite ribs and voted on which was best...and these won against 3 other places including the sacrilegious "Vegan" rib. Anyway don't hesitate to get these ribs with the sweet house sauce.. you will not be disappointed.
Went here Sunday afternoon and ordered a quarter pound of ribs (3 bones). The ribs were dry and unedible. Ended up throwing 2 1/2 ribs away. Since it's isn't the first time I have gotten dry food from here(jerk chicken special, ribs) it will be my last time patronizing this restaurant.

Everything was fine until I got the food. It was terrible. The ribs had no sauce on it. What was on the side, was watered down. We didn't even eat the sides. Would we go back? NO!!!!

This was the worse brisket I have ever had . It was dry, overcooked and tasted like it was last weeks brisket and reheated today. The girls in the front just had a lack of awareness. In addition, I never even smelled the smoker, first bbq restaurant I went to were I couldn't spell the meat smoking, guess they had Sysco drop off precooked brisket. They charge you $20 for dry brisket with one side of brisket has the most dry meat I ever had and the other side has a big piece of fat. However, your $20 gets you too of the most dry pre-made heated up meat and one side , oh and don't forget the free Cole slaw that they forget to put in your bag. If you are looking for a place with yucky, disgusting and dry food, along with bad customer service you are home. However, if you want yummy tender juice brisket try mission bbq in greenbelt, it is worth the drive. Moreover, when you ask for a refund they tell you they don't do refunds instead you can get a free meal. Why would I get a free meal of disgusting food, I want my hard earned money. So please run run run from the worse bbq I have ever had on my 40 years on this earth.
