Rib City - Virginia Beach

The St Louis Ribs are very good, the service is Excellent and the Sweet Tea is second to none.

This is probably my favorite place for baby Back Ribs right now. They slow smoke the ribs and then grill them a bit. So you get that great smokey flavor and a little crisp and char from the grill. They have a sweet BBQ and a mildly spicy BBQ. If you mix them together they make the perfect BBQ sauce. NOTE: This is a place you should dine in vs. door dash. I would be cautious about delivery reviews becuase you don't know how far the food traveled before it was eaten. Also we all know the taste of food declines when it travels. I'm not saying don't do delivery, just understand that your food will not taste the same as eating it there... They have their smokers right out back and you can smell them working as you pull up. honestly you're doing yourself a disservice by getting this delivered. The mac and cheese was homemade. (Admittedly I've seen the mac and cheese change up over the years from homemade to box-like and back). This time is was homemade. I think the greens may have been canned , but that doesn't matter when you know how to cook. They had the right flavor. I typically enjoy the greenbeans. I've had the brisket, it's very good, but different than what you may be most familiar with. My wife is addicted to their fish sandwich. The pulled pork is great. I'm not ahuge fan of the smoked turkey, but I've rearely liked it anywhere. This is a great place for lunch or dinner. I originally gave it a 4 for atmosphere, but that's just due to my taste in decor. It doesn't look bad or anything, maybe a little dated. For a BBQ place it's actually on par or even a little nicer than most. Again you may feel different based on your taste. The bathrooms are dated, but extremely and surprisingly cleaner than I expected. I was pleasantly surprised by that. The staff is very welcoming and highly attentive. Management is friendly and always says hello. The prices are very fair. I highly reccomend. The only disappointment I had today was that I ordered half a rack of ribs instead of a full rack... This is one of my local favorites.

This was 1st time I ordered food from VA Beach Rib City location and it was delicious and more than enough for 8 adults and 8 kids (ages 1yr to 17). We had the Baby Back Deluxe Pack with mac cheese, green beans and extra order of backed beans and French fries. I highly recommend the baby back ribs as they were fall off the bone tender. My second recommendation would be the smoked turkey. It was tender and not dry as smoked turkey can sometimes be. As for the sides, the mac cheese was not baked but reminded me of a creamier version of Veleeta shells mac cheese but it was still good. I would definitely eat from this location again. Maybe next time I'm in town I'll eat at the restaurant.

Last night for dinner. had the three meat combination. ripen, pork and smoked truthahn. everything was especially good, including the service. but I saved the truthahn for today for a sandwich. When I started eating it, I found wax paper all mixed with the truth. that tells me that it is already cooked and wrapped and cut into slices. very disappointing to find out what they claim to cook there is actually not. will never order the truthahn again!

The personal was friendly. the order for 2. were not completely finished, chicken seemed overdue. swarms were good and liked the sauce. the waitress seemed to float (we were last in restaurant.) cole Slav was good as well as the mac and cheese. helpers were a good size, just need to try to get right. will try again when I am in the city
