Stopped here on our way from Destin, Fl to Chattanooga, TN. Recommended by a friend & wasnât disappointed! We were seated right away, on a Tuesday afternoon around 1PM. Thereâs a parking lot (free) we put our order in: full rack of ribs (12 bones) mac n cheese side, kids chicken tenders with baked beans & kids grilled cheese with Mac n cheese. We were brought white bread with their famous sauce. Very delicious. Tangy, vinegary bbq sauce with a little kick. The rest of the food came soon after. The previous reviewers are correct when they say itâs not a fall off the bone meat. Itâs still great tho! The Mac n cheese wasnât my favorite. The kids loved thereâs. We decided to top off with a banana pudding. Yum! Our waitress was super nice & helped us pack our leftovers. Drinks come in a reusable plastic cup thatâs like a little souvenir. Would def return if I swing back through!

Ribs. Pork. Chicken. Brisket. Hell, even sausage. All BBQ has the same three basic ingredients: smoke, meat and time. What makes it different is the amount, consideration and attention to each part of that recipe. That, and some really great bbq sauce, to

3. Roadside Bar Bq Rib & Chicken
Reviewed By Soulcat
Stopped by Roadside Bar BQq for a Saturday lunch. Not my first time here, but it had been over a year since my last visit. The ribs are nicely sweet at first taste with a nice little kick of spiciness. I also enjoyed the potato salad and baked beans. The decor of the place is pretty bare bones, but then again most of their business is take out, so that's to be expected. I'd definitely recommend Roadside Bar Bq, but be prepared to use up some napkins and/or do a lot of finger licking.

For a chain, the food was better than we expected. My ribs were tender and came with sauce on the side. The potato salad has sweet pickle relish in it, which while it could have been good, was too cloying. Don't order the green beans! So overcooked they look like they were canned. The fried okra was good and plentiful. We took home leftovers and didn't have room for dessert.

SAW's was recommended to us by hotel staff. Our server was excellent. We started with fried green tomatoes which were delicious. Our servicer made a recommendation which we ordered. We had the pork and greens and grilled catfish and greens. Both were excellent and packed with flavor. This place has a casual atmosphere and great food. You won't be disappointed.
