I found the food to be very good. Some of the customers were on the loud side, but then some people are like that.

The ribs are very good here. Service was good but it's a small older building so the atmosphere is nothing special. The place was packed with a waiting line. There didn't appear to be a lot of eateries nearby so keep that in mind when traveling here.Parking: The parking lot is very tight.

I really had hope for this place as a new visitor to the town. I was initially leary to see a Rib Co sign but no Rib smell in the air. I decided to try it and how I wish I never did. It's empty for a reason. Dinosaur sized portions with rat sh$$ flavor. All show and no go. Nothing worse than a loaded plate of good looking food with no taste, no seasoning, no flavor whatsoever. Maybe this place is a practice rib place or movie prop? Dont be fooled, the Rib Co should renamed the Heartbreak Hotel, proceed at your own risk. Those good reviews can't be given by anyone with real taste buds, yuck.

It feels like a local very popular restaurant. Make reservations in advance. It's a small mom n pops bbq restaurant. BBQ is good. Prices are alittle steep but your bbq if hot off the grill. Our waitress was very nice.

Waited for 30 minutes for a place that wasn't even packed, waited 45 minutes to receive food, and when I asked for a doggy bag, the guy told me to just finish your food. I'm sure he was joking, but I was already annoyed, and he obviously couldn't read the room. It's the only BBQ place in town, so I had to try it. Now it's been there, done that, not going back.

I was here in 2017 but I am still thinking about the diner we have at The Rib Co. It was our first encounter with beef ribs and oh man it was amazing. My friend ordered the half rib and what he got on the plate was far from small piece he was expecting... After comment that it must have been mistaken the local people laughed so hard... So he end up eating the ribs that looked like in the Flintstones and oh boy how we envied him!

Very yummy ribs melt in one's mouth. We took a ribs sampler one portion for 2 people. It was a huge amount of meat.

This place is absolutely a must try! They had the best ribs I’ve had in my life. I would 100% go here again! Portions are huge and taste is amazing. Their service is also good, and the atmosphere is very cool. There’s also parking available which is always a plus. I recommend the ribs with the whiskey glaze sauce. It also comes with two sides. The price is a bit high at about $45 per person for what we ate but you’d probably eat less food than we did.Vegetarian options: None.Parking: There’s definitely parking available.

Service was delightful, ribs great, and the honey butter cornbread ? Prices are comparable to others in the area but feels like a real rib joint with massive servings of all the things (note- I'm Australian so 'massive' is relative ?)

Oh my god this place is fantastic. I do not exaggerate when I say that I have lived in major cities my whole life and this is hands down the best rib spot I have ever been to. Ribs, chicken, and mac n cheese are all stellar. I will take all my friends here when they pass through.
