“Maybe off the beaten path and a no frills location but TOP NOTCH BBQ. First time trying Roysters but will not be our last. Some of the best BBQ I have had in CT. We tried nearly every meat and side available (Brisket, Pulled Pork, Beef Ribs, Pork Ribs, and Jalapeño Cheddar Sausage plus both cornbreads, smoked mushrooms, baked beans mac n cheese and coleslaw). Every bite was fantastic! Excellent smoke rings and nice bark, great spice to the BBQ sauce. You gotta give it try if in the area. Keep it up Brian, it was nice meeting you Sat. We will see you soon!“

“This is such a great restaurant. Love the atmosphere here and the beauty of the place itself. The food is great. The happy hour food menu however is minimal and seriously lacking options. Also, the service at the bar is often very slow unfortunately.“

“Awesome food and great service! We’ve eaten here several times over the years and always love it. Didn’t plan on eating here today, but couldn’t resist after smelling their meats getting smoked - pulled me in like a magnet. My grandson and I took a morning bike ride on the rails to trails path that goes right past Smokin with Chris. As soon and I got a whiff of that awesome aroma I knew where I was having dinner - great choice! I had the Burnt Ends Duo with Brisket and Pork Belly and highly recommend it. My wife had the Smoked Chili and loved it. Our server was very friendly and attentive as well. We’ll be back!“

“We had dinner here tonight and was very impressed with everything! Our server Greg was phenomenal - very attentive, gave suggestions when we asked, and everything came out exactly as ordered. He was very friendly and welcoming, we would go back just for his good service!! The food was very fresh and cooked to perfection. All of their dressings and dips are made in-house and you can tell because they were absolutely delicious!! Thank you for a great experience, we can’t wait to come back!!“

“My boyfriend and I stopped here on my birthday. The food was DELICIOUS!!! The ribs were juicy and tender, the chicken was as well. The yams and potato salad were everything!! I didn't get to try the soda but I will next time. The owner was kind and nice and everyone should visit his establishment.“

“Somebody finally got it right! This was my first visit to the location on Winchester Ave, New Haven CT, in the Science Park District. I was truly impressed. The atmosphere is clean, inviting, and family-friendly. The barbecue ribs were tender, juicy, and smoked to perfection. I met the owner, Ricky D, who has his own signature BBQ sauce and seasonings. His BBQ has just the right amount of twang & heat. We tried the wings as well with baked beans and cole slaw. Dinners come with 2 sides & cornbread. We had Mac & Cheese & Collard Greens, which were absolutely delicious. You can tell that Ricky D puts his heart & soul into what he does. If you are looking for BBQ I highly recommend Ricky D's Rib Shack. The next time, I'm going to try his brisket. With that being said, I'll be back!“

“I order through doordash. Most recently I ordered the 2 meat combo with beans and a side of potato salad. The meat was brisket & pulled pork. Both were moist and delicious as well as the beans and corn bread. The potato salad had onions in it which I am not a fan of, so I only had a bite, but the flavor was not of a storemade variety. I asked for sauces on the side (Carolina & KC). The Carolina was spicy which I was not expecting at all. Overall, I enjoyed the food and plan on ordering again sometime.“
