The Best BBQ!!. Delicious food, friendly service and extra clean. The ribs just melt in your mouth! I love the variety of homemade sides especially the Mac n Cheese and Roadside Veggies. They also have a few homemade pies. Did I mention fresh baked corn muffins?!! Yum! And great beer selection including Shiner Bock.…
Impressed. Wow - great BBQ right in the Richmond! I used to only go to Memphis Minnie's in town, but I have to say this place offers worthy competition.
BBQ that ROCKS!!!!!. This place is consistantly solid. I've been there numerous times, it is by far the best Q in the city. Meat falls off the bone, great sides and friendly service. Oh and by the way this place is so clean you would take your folks there! The brisket melts in yo mouth, tasty mac and cheese, and my mom said they had the best pecan pie she's ever had!!…
Just not that interesting.... I rated Roadside 3 stars only because it's just about right on par with the rest of the BBQ joints here in SF. The meat is ok to good but the sauces are avg at best and the sides just are not that interesting. Please someone... open a really good BBQ joint in this city.…
If you see Roadside BBQ, then keep on driving..
Tuesday, 12/11/2007: My girlfriend and I decided to eat at Roadside BBQ tonight for dinner. I've driven by this restaurant on Geary for the past few weeks and have been meaning to try it. It was
disappointing. Our dinner was comprised of: a Full-Rack of Ribs for $19.95 with side dishes of Mac'N'Cheese for $2.95, Cole Slaw for $2.25 and Garlic Fries for $2.95.
We both agreed that the ribs were too dry and tough. Moreover, the ribs were also lukewarm in temperature. Within a few minutes of sitting at our table, the ribs were pretty much cold. Obviously I don't know for sure, but I imagine that the ribs were pre-cooked and probably re-heated when we ordered. Not very tasty.
The Mac'N'Cheese was okay, but my girlfriend really liked the Garlic Fries.
We were both disgusted with the Cole Slaw. For $2.25 I guess we were expecting a little more, but the portion was VERY small and had no taste whatsoever.
Overall, I really didn't like the food at Roadside BBQ. The worst part is that hours later the food doesn't sit in your stomach very well (which as a result is leading me to write this critique).
I understand that the restaurant owner of Roadside BBQ is also the same owner of "Pancho's," the Mexican restaurant also on Geary Blvd. I like Pancho's. However, I don't share the same love for this place.
Who knows? The chef may have had an "off" night. All in all, I would NOT recommend this restaurant based on my experience.…
