Have been coming to this place for years. Moved out of state and had to come back while visiting area. Best BBQ I have ever tasted. Best BBQ beans as well

Came here for dinner while on a family vacation on a Saturday evening. One of the few places I can eat at as a carnivore (I just give away my sides to my family). Easy to find place with plenty of free parking in the strip mall. I loved the atmosphere and the staff were extremely nice and helpful. I ordered the 4-meat special (sliced beef, sliced pork, ribs, and chicken) which sounded good bc of the variety. However, I was a little disappointed. I think I should’ve tried the pulled pork and chopped brisket instead because the sliced meat had no taste. Just be aware, the meal is already 21.99 and they up-charge for the better meat. The ribs tasted good, but were not the tender, fall-off-the-bone type. Finally, the chicken was just so-so. I’d still recommend this place, but I’d definitely get other types of meat if I go back again.

Good relaxing experience at the Kirkman location. Food was good for store bought BBQ. Weather was great for outside seating.

Generally, I love Bubbalou's. The best is Texas Brisket. Eating the carnivore diet, we eat at Bubbalou's every time we go to Orlando. But I had the spare ribs once that was rather dry. But besides that, good eats. Very casual atmosphere. Great people.

I had the pulled chicken sandwich, collard greens, Mac and cheese. Along with a soda. Everything was so good except the collard greens that's why I gave the food 4 stars. The service was good and the staff is friendly and helpful. I would certainly come back and have lunch again.

I'm shocked. Seriously. I'm from NC, and we know BBQ. I would rank this right up there with any of the best BBQ places we have. We got the ribs, pulled pork, sliced chicken, and sliced pork. Even the baked beans and slaw were amazing. The only thing we didn't enjoy as much were the collards and the Brunswick stew, while tasty wasn't what we're used to, but those are minor criticisms. Overall well done, y'all!

I'm baaack!! 😋 Most people know I’m not a huge BBQ fan these days, but when the craving hits, you need something so good it'll make you wanna slap your momma! 😂 Bubbalou’s Bodacious Bar-B-Que did NOT disappoint!

This was my first time experiencing Bubbalou’s, and let’s talk about the meats— I had a rib, pulled pork, and a chicken thigh. I added a little sweet sauce for fun, but honestly, it wasn’t even needed. Each meat was cooked to perfection, especially that rib! Sooo tender. My friend had the brisket and said the same — delicious and perfectly cooked. 👌🏾

Now the sides — I tried the potato salad, baked beans, mac & cheese, and corn. I’m picky about potato salad, but Bubbalou’s surprised me — super tasty! The baked beans hit, too. The mac & cheese wasn’t bad, just needed a little salt and (my personal preference) more cheese 🤷🏾‍♀️. The corn… meh. It fell a little flat. I like mine sweet, in this moment, a pinch of salt might’ve helped. My friend ordered the collard greens — I tried them and was pleasantly surprised! A little more seasoning would've taken them up a notch, but they were solid.

Overall: Everything was tasty, and I’d absolutely recommend stopping by if you're in the area. I’ll definitely be back!

We came as a party of 12 and they put several tables together for us to be able to sit together. You order at the counter and then sit down and they bring your food to you when it's ready. Every employee or manager we encountered was super friendly and welcoming. Their service was on point! Our food was delivered promptly and we discovered we were missing one item. We brought it to their attention and it was made right almost immediately. The food was so amazing! I recommend the brisket and pulled pork combo, but everyone in the party had similar comments about what they ordered.
Our overall experience was entirely satisfying. This is the kind of experience you want to have when you spend your hard earned money at a restaurant. Anyone can provide a good meal, but when you combine amazing cuisine with superior, fast and friendly service, this is the winning ticket! Highly recommend!!!
