Well, my first time here as well as in Chattanooga, TN. Hubby had heard of the spot from friends a year ago. If you a scaredy-cat tourist, the place will look sketchy as heck. I'm from NY and living in GA for over 8 years I learned about the best establishments, be them hole in the wall places! Anyway, you pull up and chef outside on the grill, smoking it up! When you get to the door it reminds me of one of those old liquor stores you ain't got no business being in as a kid. Push in the door and that BBQ small hits your belly hard. It's a small spot they got about 4 tables inside but it's cozy. Menu looks legit. Our family 3 had a variety of selections hot dog and mac n cheese for the kid, I had the wings, green beans and slaw and hubby had a pork sandwich baked beans and potatoes salad!. I was able to get the green beans because they use turkey. I was salivating but disappointed. They were peppery and bland, but baby my slaw and wings were finger licking the whole time good. The wings were a little tiny but VERY tasteful. The kid ate all of his food and he a picky eater, plus he don't eat everyone's mac n cheese. Let's just say no morsel was left behind. My hubby said everything was good he meant to get me the potato salad and him the coleslaw his error my pleasure. He don't eat potato salad but decided to try it, why he couldn't stop eating it! Then, he had the nerve to ask these people, " who made the potato salad?" Glad we sat and stayed and enjoyed it all, they seem to be a family business giving the business with this BBQ. The bonus was customer service was all that and then some!

Them ribs were rollin’. Green beans and coleslaw on point. Dropped in on our way through town. Wanted to stop in on a local spot and support the local folk. If you’re looking for a hole in the wall with great food and friendly people this is the spot.

I’m surprised I haven’t heard of Good Eats before. Amazing food, great proportions, and good people. If you want bbq, this should be your first thought on where to go.

Food was great. The ladies behind the counter were very friendly and helpful! We had the Brisket nachos, ribs, and brisket and everything was delicious!! The place is small and has 3-4 tables to sit but definitely check them out even if it is takeout. You won't be disappointed with the food!

My sister found this AMAZING BBQ place on Yelp last night after adventuring around the riverfront area of Chattanooga. Oh my gosh... am I grateful she found this little gem on Yelp! This is a family run business--the food is MOUTH WATERING! Hands down the best brisket I have ever had. Delicious does not begin to describe the flavor and quality. I will be flying home to California in a few days, but I will be dreaming of this bbq for a long time! It's my #1 reason to return to Chattanooga, seriously! I had the brisket over a baked potato. We also tried the bbq baked beans (delish!), potato salad (some of the best I've ever had), and macaroni and cheese. Wow. And everyone who worked there--they are all family--are so kind and welcoming! They are thrilled you are there to enjoy their food! Soooooo good. Try it!

The best BBQ I have ever eaten in my life. My husband wanted BBQ, and I obliged by coming to this Google searched site. I'm a chef, going out and finding a good place to satisfy my palate is not easy, “Good Eats BBQ Chattanooga” was the exception! Don't be carried away by the appearance of the place, let yourself be served by the kindness of its owners and the delicious food prepared with Love.The Food, Service and Attention are A+. Super recommended!

Wanted some true TN bbq, and this place was IT. Ribs, wings, pulled chicken, BBQ beans, and green beans were all fantastic. BBQ beans were perfectly spicy, and the green beans had a collard green kind of flavor. We all agreed we have to go back when we're in Chattanooga again.
