15 Best Barbeque Restaurants in Tallahassee

“way good food...highly recommend. bbq“

“Visiting from out of State and stopped in. Food was delicious and the GM had amazing hospitality. 5 STARS“

“We were driving through Tallahassee on a road trip lots of friends recommended Midtown Caboose for lunch but the second we got out of the car we smelled the BBQ and immediately crossed the street. It was SO intoxicating and lived up to the fantasies that quickly had formed in our head (and this is coming from someone who doesn’t even love BBQ/Soul all that much). I got fried chicken and my fiancé got pulled pork. Yes, there are 3 pieces of chicken in that platter and it’s all ridiculous cheap.“

“Just called Rivers Lakeland to place a pick up order. Man answered the phone. Stated they don't take orders by phone have to do online. Told him I tried that wouldn't work. Said that's how they do take out. I've been going to 4 Rivers for years. Was ordering for six people over $100. Told him I'll find some place else to order from. Won't be back.“

“I’m new to the area so when I asked a friend where good jerk chicken is they Told me to try this place out and I’m so happy I did. It is so good I Haven’t had decent jerk chicken in a long time I highly suggest this place the portions are Great, and the flavor is amazing You can get any meat with two sides for only eight bucks. The mac & cheese is amazing and the collard greens are great. I’m definitely coming back to this place.“

“By far the best bbq in town. Outstanding customer service and amazing bbq.“

“It was really gooooooooood and the wait staff were so kind!!!!!!! The little paper thing has a pig anatomy type of thing. The atmosphere is so charming! Absolutely lovely. The sauce you get with the cheese curds is sooo good!!!!! Me and my family love this place!!!! All I ask of y’all is to bring back the loaded mac and cheese bowls!!!!! (My mom really wants them back) Also thank you to Dimitrios S. If you see this review dimitrios, I wish you a good life.

UPDATE: we came back and I got the brisket grilled cheese and it had me ascending. Our server was Lisa and she is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. At the end she got us all to go cups and WE DIDN’T EVEN HAVE TO ASK!!! And I can guarantee you that brisket grilled cheese had cheese pull. This place deserves the 5 stars!!!“

“Absolutely fantastic food for an unreal price. Both the sausage and ribs are heavenly, and you can’t beat their prices.“

“TOP TIER. Couldn’t recommend this place enough. Such a wholesome and comfortable experience. This is my favorite bbq place in town. Ribs so good they fall off the bone and you don’t even need extra sauce cause their ribs are so succulent. Mouths watering just typing this up 🥵🪭“

“Meat is always flavorful and fresh, enjoy the environment and staff…! Ralph is always nice and great to work with..!“

“Some of best. Tender, Moist and fast like the sign says. Meet the owner, very personable and local. I always love when I know who is getting my money and it’s going somewhere else. We should make a point to support businesses with a local tie to community. I will be coming back. 👍👍“
