26 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Riverton

“R&R is amazing food. From the moment you walk in, the amazing smell of smoking meat hits you and you know it's going to be good. Everything is smoked on-site and the quality is great.Hush puppies are a bit on the dry side, but everything else is great! The brisket, pulled pork, chicken, sausage... Just unreal.The only downside is cost, and the reason for the deduction of 1 star. Like all food related businesses, the costs have skyrocketed (thanks, socialism) and their prices are not as affordable as they once were.I used to eat here frequently, but because of prices it may turn into a once a year kind of thing. The food really is amazing and I understand the reason for the price increase, so you should still try them because it's really very good.“

“I love this place but as a disabled person the place is very large so to go to the food bar is difficult, I have to have someone go to the foodbar for me.Vegetarian options: I love the vegetables, freshParking: I am disabled so unless you get one of the few handicap spaces it is usually very far for me to walk from, I get dropped off.Wheelchair accessibility: I use a walker. Very large but unless seated by the food bar it’s too far for me to go to the food bar.“

“We’ve now used Miss Essie’s catering services for the past three years. Not only is the food delicious, Marcus is so reliable and one of the friendliest people. His prices are reasonable, as well. I highly recommend anyone that is looking for catering services to go with Miss Essie’s. Best mac & cheese out there!!! You won’t be disappointed.“

“Loved it! Everything we ate was so amazingly flavorful— Rice and black beans, chicken, skewers, and barbecue pork! The staff were very friendly. Very reasonable prices. The grilled pineapple was thick and sweet! The coconut balls were delicious too! Looking forward to attending their all-you-can-eat brazilian buffet on Fridays & Saturdays. Yum!Wheelchair accessibility: Open, well spaced tables to maneuver around.“

“I love cupbop! The food is always delicious and I have always had amazing service every time we go. I love when they all chant the bop names. The atmosphere in at the Draper and Herriman locations is amazing and I love each one’s art! 10/10 recommend “

“So happy to have found this Filipino restaurant. Food was great pansit was amazing, Adobo was good. Absolutely loved soup (non spicy) even my mom loved it all and said we could go back and more anytime. I tried 2 new dishes both were with coconut milk and I will definitely be ordering them again. I am excited to try the beef stew next time.Service was great, samples were gladly given. She was very patient me it and if you can't tell I'm so excited to return“

“On two different Sundays (February and April, 2024), we held a family event 18+ people. We used Goodwood in Draper for the food. The staff is very easy to work with, very pleasant on the phone and in person and will help load your vehicle. The food was excellent and tasty and hot both times. The prices are good, also. We will keep coming back.“

“We LOVE Texas Roadhouse. The meats are always succulent and cooked to preference. I had ribs, my Wife had steak and our daughter had a burger. Started the meal with a Cactus Blossom and took food home with us. The atmosphere is fun and energetic, sports on TV's and line dancing employees just make it a fun place to go. Thursday evening at 5pm wasn't too bad. We walked in and were seated in minutes. Our server was awesome. Kept us in sodas and checked in at perfect times.Thanks Texas Roadhouse, we'll be back!“

“Texas Roadhouse is totally awesome! Every time I go, the vibe is super fun, and the food is really tasty. The steaks are always cooked just right and have great flavor. My favorite sides are the loaded mashed potatoes—they’re so good! Plus, the staff is always super nice and quick with their service. It’s the perfect place to hang out with friends or take the family for a good meal. Definitely recommend it if you’re looking for some yummy American food!“

“My favorite Hawaiian restaurant now closer to home! We would always stop at this restaurant in St. George on our way south. I’m so excited that it’s closer to home now. I got the short ribs and they did not disappoint. Their cucumber salad is refreshing and the rice was perfect. Do yourself a favor and check them out. You will not regret it!“

“Don’t sleep on this place! The food is absolutely delicious and this restaurant deserves to be completely packed! Great balance of flavors with the sweet sauce and a good zing from the dressing and pickled cabbage on the rice bowl. Also, the mandoo is FIRE! Highly recommend.“

“The food was very good. I had a sirloin 6oz, medium rare, and it was cooked to that in the middle. The taste of the mashed potatoes was nice, very buttery which personally I enjoy. The service was a little.. far between but it was pretty busy at the time we went so I'm not really mad about it. It reminds me of an old restraunt I went to every night in Kansas after working cattle. Good steak/sirloin, fun atmosphere, decent service when busy. I'd recommend this place if you're just looking for somewhere nicer than Dennys to get your steak with the family.“

“Beca, Jackson and Dom were Rockstars tonight!! We came for dinner and they were clearly very busy with drive through DoorDash and lobby orders and they still managed to provide our family great service, they were very transparent, friendly and caring! Give them a raise!! We will always come back! We love the food and the service ✨✨✨“

“My wife and I were going to go to Lucky 13 for her birthday and our anniversary. They were slammed, so we looked for an alternative. Bandits pulled up as an option that neither of us knew about. (Even though we both grew up in Cottonwood Heights)We were greeted upon walking in, and were seated immediately. We started with fried pickles, and they were amazing! 10/10. My wife had the Best in the West burger with onion rings and ranch beans. She loved every part of it. I had the pick 3 combo with Tri Tip, Pulled Pork, and half chicken with daily vegetables and garlic fries as a side. The sides were amazing, and the tri tip was phenomenal. The pulled pork was a little bland, and I would not do the half a chicken again. Service was amazingly friendly. The only thing that kept this from being a 5 star visit is my drink bottoming out and having to wait for 5-10 minutes for a refill.We will be recommending Bandits, and will be back!“

“I love Cupbop! There are very few places that I randomly get cravings for, but Cupbop is one of them. I had never been to this particular one before, but was not disappointed. Delicious as ever. And the restaurant itself is very aesthetically pleasing. Impeccable. Chefs kiss.“

“This location off of 12300 has some of the best costumer service out of ANY restaurant. As I proceeded to spill all of my food after receiving it. Within seconds, they were cleaning it up with the best attitude, and had a new serving waiting free of charge. After I pleaded to pay for it again. Top notch!“

“I'm just leaving this review BEFORE I got my food cause one I already love cupbop but two this was my first time at this location and LESLIE was killing it. No offense to the other two employees cause they seemed new but she was literally running circles around them. If it wasn't for her I promise you this location would be in big trouble with the amount of traffic it gets and obviously under employed. Give this woman a raise or y'all gonna regret it if she gets another job. That's all go Leslie!“

“This place was really quite good. I got the beef bulgogi bowl with egg and sweet potato noodles and the Katsu fries. Both excellent. Had to order at a kiosk and clean up my own table. No big deal. The restaurant is pretty open and loud, but not more than you would expect at a place like this. Everyone behind the counter was helpful when I needed refills or extra sauce.“

“Literally will drive from the other side of the valley just to stop in here to eat! Absolutely no other pacific island food place compares. The pineapple jalapeño sauce is made in house and I could probably drink it if it was in a glass — yes it’s that good!“

“Went a couple of weeks ago, and I'm still full ?. Wait, was a reasonable amount of time. The waitress was pleasant and very efficient. The sampler appetizers were delicious. I'm glad I had an appetite. The steak was cooked just as I ordered, and no corners were cut on the side dishes. It is a bit loud but I like the energy it provides. Always busy but I didn't feel rushed. Highly recommend.“

“Came in for lunch and was surprised by all the great affordable fast options! I love Korean food so I was happy to find this place. The food is awesome and the staff is super nice! Justin was very helpful with all the menu options. Highly recommend this place!“

“We used to go to the Layton location quite often, but they knocked it down to build an In and Out. Sad. We were missing the amazing cornbread muffins so I had to drive to West Jordan for 100 of them to serve as treats at a meeting. They were an absolute hit. Best dang cornbread ever baked, in my opinion. What I really miss is the All American BBQ Feast. Sliced brisket, ribs and chicken. Mmmmmm! We used to feed the office lunch with it once a month or so.“

“Dietary restrictions: I have diabetes, so it limits what I can eat. The things I could eat were delicious - such as Herb chicken with caramelized lemon. The house salad is plenty and it's one of my favorite salads when eating out. Of course the steak, also. There were several good options.I will eat there again. Yum!Parking: Lots of spaces for handicapped parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of tables where wheelchairs can get to and you can sit in your wheelchair comfortably.“

“We had a dinner for a group of 100 catered and Wallaby’s did an amazing job. Nadia was professional and so great to work with to get things planned, the crew catering the event were friendly, professional, and so helpful. I would highly recommend them to anyone.“

“I got the one meat plate with chicken. It was so tender and full of flavor. I loved the mash potatoes as well- I didn’t even put the gravy on them because they had plenty of flavor without. I love all the variety in sauces as well. This is for sure one of my favorite places to get BBQ!“

“R&R BBQ: Nachos So Good, I Almost Divorced My Wife (But Not Really)Let me tell you folks, I've had pulled pork nachos all over this great nation of ours. From dive bars to fancy gastropubs, I've seen it all. But NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING, could have prepared me for the revelation that is R&R BBQ's pulled pork nachos.Imagine, if you will, a mountain of crispy tortilla chips, piled high with slow-cooked, melt-in-your-mouth pulled pork that tastes like it partied all night in a smokehouse with the juiciest, most flavorful spices known to man. Then, picture this glorious mountain getting absolutely DRENCHED in made from scratch queso cheese, like a billionaire taking a Scrooge McDuck money bath, but better, because queso cheese.Now, before you lose consciousness from pure nacho-phoria, let me tell you about my wife's pineapple pulled pork sandwich. Let's just say, for a fleeting moment, I questioned the sanctity of our marriage. The sweet and tangy pineapple played a symphony with the savory pork, a harmony so beautiful it should be illegal.But here's the thing: despite this near marital meltdown, the folks at R&R BBQ get it. As their wise owner once said, "there's nothin' fast about our food; in fact, it's downright slow." And let me tell you, that slow and steady smoking wins the race every time. You might have to wait a bit for this barbecue bliss, but trust me, it's worth every delicious, slow-cooked second.So, if you're looking for an experience that will have you saying "slowly smoked, quickly devoured" (because let's be real, those nachos ain't lasting long), then R&R BBQ is your holy grail. Just be sure to warn your significant other beforehand, because these flavors might have them questioning their life choices (again, mostly about the nachos).5 stars, would steal another bite of my wife's sandwich next time.“
