“On a rainy Saturday afternoon, we decided to give Rib City on McGregor a try for a late lunch. It was after 2:00pm and only two other tables were occupied, but service and food were a perfect 10! Our server, Yammy, was absolutely awesome. Her smile and pleasant personality added to our perfect BBQ lunch.

We enjoyed delicious crispy onion rings $7.99 for a full order (oops - ate them before we took a photo). Our entrees included a combo of BBQ chicken (dark meat only as requested) and fresh, thinly sliced pork plate w/garlic toast and our choice of two sides - creamy coleslaw and hot French fries for $13.99! Both meats had a great smokey flavor and perfectly cooked.

Our other entree was the St. Louis rib dinner w/garlic toast and our choice of two sides - coleslaw and baked beans for $21.99. There were at least five meaty and tender ribs on the platter. Although they were not as hot as I would prefer, our very attentive server quickly resolved the problem. They were returned hot and delicious. (We were so excited to eat our hot ribs, we forgot to take a photo.)

Several BBQ sauces were on the table and we tried them all.

We were stuffed and satisfied, but couldn't turn down dessert - our selection was Coconut Cream Pie! We enjoyed a few bites of this fluffy pie, but took most of it to go - no room to get another bite down.

We beverage choice was fresh brewed 1/2 and 1/2 iced tea served with a lemon wedge. Refills were provided without asking.

Be sure to ask for Yammy - she is awesome and gives all her customers excellent service.“

“I ordered the special which was swordfish on white rice and it was literally the best fish meal I have ever had!“

“Was there last Saturday with group of 8, service was excellent, great variety of food. Everyone in our group was pleased. Loved the Band.“

“A little out of the way, but well worth the trip, Jason, the manager was great, and our server, Heather was outstanding, food was great, the pulled pork appetizer on plantain chips were incredible. We both went for the special, short ribs and the were very good. View of the marina was nice, ask for a window table. The marina shops were mostly closed on a Saturday night in the summer, but it was 90 degrees and very hot to walk around. Parking garage was free, go up to the fifth level to see a great view of the marina and Sanibel.“

“The food was out of this world service awesome. Owner comes around and sees how you are enjoying. The portions are very large .“
