I just went in for a carryout order - very clean place - I got the turkey sandwich, delicious! Also 1 lb of brisket which was excellent- very friendly staff with reasonable prices, I'm on the south side of Scottsdale so it's a bit of a drive, but worth it

2.9/5: Order for pick up a platter of pork ribs, Mac n cheese and beans with corn bread. Also ordered to try; chopped brisket sando and their house made potato salad. Mac n cheezers was pretty dry and very meh. Ribs had great flavor but on the dry chewy side. Now I did travel a mile to home keep in mind. Beans were flavorful. The brisket chopped sando had good flavor but needed some dire sauce. Speaking of the bbq sauce, I can see how in different parts of the country would like it, but it was way too molasses flavor for me. Pretty strong and sweet. The potato salad was pretty good. Specially making it in house and not some food hub warehouse buy. I'd personally prefer smaller potatoes and not as on the "money" al dente. Great friendly staff.

I just discovered Naked Q yesterday but ate 2 lunches and a 1/2 pound of beef brisket for dinner last night. Good food, good prices (especially in Scottsdale) and good people. As a BBQ fan, I can fully recommend Naked QParking: Free Parking in surface lot seemed plenty both times I went there.

Counter staff helpful and pleasant. Pitmaster walks the floor checking on customer satisfaction. The baby back ribs are always good. The corn bread was pretty crumbly and kind of dry. The beans needed a bit of the spicy bbq sauce to spike the flavor. The hot link was great, and the smoked roasted green beans were quite nice as well. All in all, for chain bbq, it was good. Much better than anything from the yellow sign places.Recommended if in the area.

Just another mall bbq joint. Food was okay, real bbq, but not close to top notch. Prices and good and staff is very friendly. Convenient bbq but not great bbq.
Horrific food. Idk how you can mess up barbeque. All barbeque is good. All Mac and cheese is good. All corn bread is good. Except here. I regretted every single thing I ate. Watery BBQ sauce, flavorless cornbread, soupy cole slaw, inedible beans, and very very sad Mac and cheese. Edit to add, (because I forgot) even the banana pudding was bad!!! A dessert that is literally instant pudding and nilla wafers!!! Watery and wrong consistency.

Why is it when I'm in the area, I am ALWAYS tempted to come to Naked Q and order a LB of brisket and hot links to take home. EVERY DANG TIME! LOL Every time i go it I ask the guy, so when are you opening an Arcadia location?? Part of me wishes it would happen and part of me is thankful it hasn't happened! Cause if I were to happen, my bank account would be hurting! Seriously the BEST brisket and hot links. Hands down. Only BBQ item that has sugar in the rub is the ribs - FYI. When the quality of meat is good, and the preparation is good, the meat can stand alone. And the brisket meat does!!!

This bbq food is always great! You order at the counter and they bring it to you. They have a variety of sides and meats to choose from and they also have mild and spicy bbq sauce. Definitely one of the best bbq places in Phoenix Metro area. I also love that most of the menu is gluten free and they are very accommodating.

First time customer, in town for spring training and had to stop twice! What a find! Great BBQ and fixings. Some of the best BBQ we've had, the sauce is exceptional! We'll run establishment, wonderful staff, clean, eat in or take out. If we could, would give them 10 stars!

Damn authentic Texas style...tender brisket was awesome, beans, onions, pickles and slaw...whew! Cannot go wrong when you have a hankering...
