BUSSIN!! That's all you need to know!! Meat is amazing, and the sides are good. First real BBQ place I was able to find that had that real good BBQ from the South here in Fresno. I had a wonderful experience. Friendly, and fast too!!

I had high hopes for BBQ Bob's. They only had 2 meats. You should be ashamed of your mac and cheese it taste like rubber ?. All the sides weren't up to par. The girl was on her phone and didn't get our side correct on one order, and the other order was missing a side. But I will say the ribs were very good. Probably won't be

Food was ok, worth trying yourself.I really do love the restaurant itself how it's outside but with a homey vibe. Cute place:)

Don't do it. I was really looking forward to this food and was disappointed to say the least. Cornbread wasn't ready so we were asked to wait 15-20 minutes and it ended up being 40 minutes. We weren't offered even an extra soda as consolation. The place wasn't busy at all so that wasn't the problem. Food was bland. We ordered 5 plates and every one of us was disappointed. The meat isn't seasoned well and served dry. You get 2 TINY little cups of bbq sauce with your meal. Potato salad tastes store bought. Mac and cheese was OK but that's it. Greens were blah. They also charged us for 2 extra fries that we didn't order but we were already late back to work so we didnt go back. The lady at the counter is nice but that's it. Won't be going back EVER.

Lady at window not pleasant, food not fresh, I asked for ribs, tri tip and link. I did not get tri tip but chicken. Mac n cheese dry and plain, greens plain. My food was prepared in a clam shell box and warmed in microwave. Won't go back

This restaurant is top ranked in bbq in this town. The service is excellent! The food is even better than the service and that's saying a mouthful. I had the 3 meat combo with 2 sides and some peach cobbler. The crust on the cobbler was amazingly delicious. On my combo I had the hot link which was delicious and I had the tri tip which was also delicious and I had the ribs which were my favorite. For my sides I had the amazing greens and the macaroni n cheese. Everything including the cornbread was absolutely amazing. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Four stars for the service: friendly and quick. But the food was just ok. It's been a over a year since we've stopped here. My husband used to stop here regularly for lunch and would sometimes bring me leftover bbq and it was good. BBQ Bob is located in the middle of a residential neighborhood. It's a renovated house, they've removed all landscaping in the front and installed cement with tables and benches. There is a covered area to order your food.This visit i called in our order and my husband picked up. I ordered their Thursday special: rib sandwich, one side (I chose greens) and a drink. $9, I think which is a great lunch price. When I asked if they had unsweetened tea, I should have asked if they have fresh brewed tea because he meant they have lit on tea in cans. Oh well. I did not enjoy the greens at all, they were a bit bitter. There are a million ways to cook greens so I just didn't get lucky. The rib sandwich was tender rib meat off the bone, tossed in a good amount of bbq sauce and in a soft hoagie bun. They were not stingy with the meat (it's not overloaded either) and I loved that soft bun. I would have loved the sandwich so much more except I'm a weirdo that doesn't really care for bbq sauce all over my meat. Next time I'll know to ask for it on the side. My husband loved his 3 meat plate with one side (baked beans).So, overall, food 3.5 stars and service 4 stars.

I came to BBQ Bob on 08/10/22 as I needed to take care of an incident that occurred. Upon arrival I noticed how CLEAN and beautiful the grounds were! I thought to myself how come I've NEVER seen this cute place! Upon arrival there were two customers ahead of me and we chatted a bit. I asked to speak to the manager which I believe her name was Pamela. The most sweetest lady ever. Staff informed me she will be right out and guess what BOB came out and greeted me as well. The hospitality is was AMAZING and they took my concerns seriously. They took the time and I let them know I was happy to be here and glad the situation happened or I would never known about this place. Bob informed me they have been open since November 2020. I'm disappointed that Bobs is not on the map especially being a Black Owned Business! You can tell the pride in the place is THERE. Very pleasant experience and beautiful. I was lucky enough to try the BBQ and it is reasonably priced! The GOOD part was that the BBQ was AMAZING when I say AMAZING it was DELICIOUS. My mouth is already watering for those ribs I had. Probably one of the best RIBS I had and meat as well. My family was able to sample a little of it and it was GONE in seconds. We are planning on returning soon as the flavors was delicious and the BBQ was on point - that Smokey flavor !!!! I liked the sweet potato pie which was delicious and they also have peach cobbler !!! I'm putting them on the map because they deserve it! The food speaks for itself! I will be back soon as the dude wants to try it he was upset I didn't share xD. They are having new hours starting soon! Which is perfect for my work schedule and family day's schedule too! Definitely recommend !! If you are in the mood for BBQ definitely give them a try or have them cater your next event and support local!!!

I am a huge fan of slow cooked BBQ. This was my 3rd attempt to eat here as the two previous attempts, it was closed.The stand is all outdoor. The staff is attentive in helping adjust the umbrellas, but that's about all they can do. Brisket is great here. The spices mixes with the natural juices making for a true melt-in-your-mouth experience. I'd come back just for that.I am a big fan of hot links. I had to add one to my order to try. I was not disappointed. I got a side of baked mac and cheese. It was like a cheese and noodle casserole. The cheese was nice and flavorful. It was pretty good. I saw a lot of items on the menu that I want to try. Most likely, I will take my order home.

Definitely a refreshing stop after a long day of work. As a Southerner, I judge my BBQ & greens pretty harshly, but I was absolutely satisfied by the smoky Mac and cheese, meaty greens, and spicy smoked Ribs & Chicken. We received hearty portions with plenty to take home. I wish the meat in the greens didn't have bones in it, but I get they use scrap meat for it. The cornbread also was a bit dry, but I'm sure that's the style out West. We chatted with the owner Bob who was super friendly and authentic while sitting in a shady "front-yard" style dining area which was plenty cool. We'll definitely be back for some more of that peach cobbler!

Very good barbecue at a good price... I just wish that they had better hours like I think on the weekend will weekend would be good for them to continue to do business even possibly like family packs. The men in this business are very nice every time people come the women who are also very nice as well they have good deals and the food is.
