We were told by a local to not miss Neely's place on 3rd Street. The food was above average but not the "experience" we were told to expect. Friendly folks. The brisket was good, the pork ribs so-so.

This review is for the location at 2265 S 3rd St, Memphis, TN 38109. I had the beef ribs and they were excellent, served with two sides and white bread. My husband got the beef sandwich and said it was good but that he should have ordered pork. The service was friendly and helpful. Interesting photos and memorabilia on the walls, including photos of the Neely family. Basically a good old Southern BBQ joint.

We were immediately greeted with a smile and seated! The solo waitress Ms Stephanie was awesome!! Our drink order was taken immediately allowing us time to sip & study the menu! The sampler platter with a huge amount of everything was more than enough!! The price couldn’t be beat! We had a party of 10, and we were well attended to!we will definitely be back & highly recommend !!

I can only speak for my experience at the airport location. The food is ok, in my opinion. However I really don't like southern BBQ. However my review is based on the costumer service I received. I'd which sister it is,but that tall one with braids in a bun has the worst costumer service I've ever seen.I walked in one day,and she clearly saw me standing at the counter,as she was there too,facing me. I spoke to her,and she turned her back on me. After speaking two more times she said me and I quote "What do you want?" But when the white pilot came in she quickly fixed that nasty attitude and gave him a warm welcome and hospitality. After that moment I stop going there.

Not very good...I only had fries and slaw but didn't even eat the cole slaw because it seemed iffy and I didn't want to chance it. The woman taking my order was really not vwry nice to deal with either.

I had the best pulled pork sandwich/ coleslaw ever! I couldn't eat it all...The carrot cake was amazing too. I'm from right outside of Philadelphia and this was my first trip to Memphis. I plan on returning in the spring if COVID allows. Thank you Interstate BBQ!!

The ham biscuits are not fresh. They are microwaved. The tea is different. The place is dirty, but the service is friendly. Fortunately they will close this location soon.

Horrible. Bad attitudes from the lady cashier. The day I visited they didn't have french fries, sliced pork and the man in front of me asked for bologna sandwich they didn't even have bologna and she just had such a rotten attitude it was Sunday morning we were flying out I was hungry and I gave him a try it was horrible the potato salad was the only decent thing they gave me cold baked beans the meat was obviously microwaved and dry I hate pulled pork but that's all they had available no slice pork it was a very bad experience you've been warned.The pork was dry and tough!

What a great place and excellent food and service . So glad we stopped in the BBQ was just what the Dr ordered. Thank you for the hospitality and one hell of a meal ! See you again next time we're in town.
Our food was old and cold. The BBQ sauce looked and tasted like tomato paste. It was horrible. Highly over rated!

No smoke taste at all. Drowned in excessively sweet sauce. Ate a few bites of pork and threw it away.

Staff seemed checked out. Waited 5 minutes to be seated when there open seats everywhere and no one if acknowledged we were waiting. Finally just sat at the bar. Tv's were off on football Sunday and staff didn't know why or even try to turn them on. Could not serve wine as they had no opener. But, they were open , had a limited menu and the beer was cold. Room for improvement.

It only gets a 2 because the beans were good. Ribs were tough and chopped pork was swimming in sauce. Run away.

This is not good bbq. I had the chopped pork and smoked turkey. There was no smoke flavor at all, if they had not smothered it in some sort of tomato based sauce it would have been very dry. Not very many selections, food not great at all, the staff was not the friendliest. Also $25.50 for a 2 meat plate is crazy outrageous for this sub par food. That did not include a drink. You’re better off getting a pre made sandwich from the store next door, at least the lady working there is nice.
