20 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Riverdale Park

“Hands down the one of the best we’ve had! If you love meat, this place is definitely worth checking out. We got there on a Saturday morning and ran into a pretty decent line, but the staff were super friendly and it moved along quickly. Nothing beats meat that falls right off the bone and a steak that’s juicy and perfectly cooked.“

“Great old school carryout food and the shop is almost like a museum of events over the last 57 years since they opened.“

“Enjoyed my meal tonight. Friendly and superb service from David!“

“Muy excelente lugar nos encanta venir y compartir con la familia su atención es más que excelente servicio completamente recomendado“

“👋🏼 I absolutely love Famous Dave's. They have the BEST! ribs around town! 🤩💯💥 we had the family platter. The baked beans, coleslaw, 🌽 and muffins are so flavorful! 😋 The brisket was so tender I didn't even need a knife! sorry, I forgot to take a Pic of the food because I just dived right in! On the 🥔 potatoe wedges! My baby girl helped herself to a plate full of ribs! 😋 This location was AMAZING! #Mynewspot“

“When I tell you that’s I’ve been looking for some good authentic bbq, I have! And, I’ve been disappointed up until now. I decided to give DCity Smokehouse a try. I got the smoked wings, ribs, and collards. The meats has a nice REAL smoked flavor, seasoned to perfection, and the collards were on point. I look forward to trying more food items from the menu. I highly recommend!“

“Great food - great attitude ; superb customer service“

“Five + Stars. The crew in Greenbelt were exceptional. Had a party catered and an item of food was forgotten. The manager immediately had the item delivered to my house along with an extra side. The guests raved about the food. Greenbelt Mission BBQ will be my number one place for party food. Thanks to all who work there.“

“It's a very unique place, with a country style, and the space is very spacious.
The food is delicious; the ribs are highly recommended, and the portions are generous.
It has a side bar, and the mac and cheese is delicious.“

“Great food and beer. Awesome service“

“This my first time here and it was probably one of the best experience I’ve ever had at a bar in DC . I’ll definitely be back for my birthday next week. Love the atmosphere“

“Amazing atmosphere - service needs a little work. I think this place is heavily understaffed so we did have to wait a decent amount of time for food/drinks and our bill. Two other things that would help improve my rating would be to include dietary restrictions on the menu (especially Gluten Free) and to be able to split checks properly. There was six of us and we asked to split our check between the three couples but the waiter straight up shut us down (didn’t even try). With these improvements, this place would definitely deserve a 5 star rating.“

“Great Spot! You’ll really like it!“

“The BBQ here is exceptional! You might think going to a BBQ spot would be all heavy meats but not the case here. The dish I had was their special grilled salmon burger with blueberry BBQ sauce, I cannot even begin to explain how delicious it was! As well as the smoked then fried wings. Probably the best wings in the city! They were also exceptionally hospitable in providing vegan options for a friend, and accommodating an 8 person walk-in party with little to no wait time. Just note the specials sell out quickly so I recommend going on the earlier side.

Vegetarian options: They were able to accommodate a friend who only eats vegan food, I wouldn't say they have a lot of options, but a couple of good choices despite being known for smoked meats.“

“4.5 stars!Everything is wonderful about this spot. Just found the ribs a little tough and the menu to be a little too small. This is bbq food with a Mexican twist, the steak is cooked perfectly and I definitely recommend getting it. Price is super fair and portion sizes are generous.“

“Don’t know bout you!!!😋👊🏿🍖“

“I had the brisket, ribs, baked beans and cole slaw. The brisket practically melts and was so delicious. The ribs were great too. Tried several of the sauces. I like the mustard & the origins sauce best. Meal was big enough to ask for a doggie bag to finish it later on.“

“I sent my friends to this place with my warmest recommendations. I go their often. This recommendation is always successful. The the cooking is appetizing and the stuff is welcoming and cooperative. Every time we go to this place we enjoy a gorgeous evening. I warmly recommend this restaurant.“
