5 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Tacoma

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 – Our Favorite Spot on the Trip! We stopped in during a girls' trip and fell in love with the vibe. It's fun, cozy, and full of good energy—the kind of place that makes you want to stay a while. The owners were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel like we were right at home. Every single dish we tried was bursting with flavor—absolutely exquisite. And the drinks? So unique and delicious, you’ll want to try them all. From start to finish, the service was fantastic. This was hands down our favorite place on the trip. If you're in town, do yourself a favor and don’t miss this spot. Sooo good“

“How did I wait 6 years since moving to Tacoma to try this gem? Roast duck noodle soup. A drumstick, some thigh and some breast in a perfectly seasoned savory broth and egg noodle with just the right bite. The chives and bock choy are a perfect crunch. It’s hard to eat while smiling this big Don’t plan to come here, do it, do it now. Beats anything I ever had in seattle. Or LA/San Fran for that matter.“

“After I started smoking meat myself, bbq restaurants were ruined for my wife & I.Our home product is usually much better. This is the first bbq restaurant we were happy with. My 4 Sons is great barbecue! I got the brisket and it had a FANTASTIC bark! The sides were great, too! Mac & Cheese was smokey & on point. Broccoli salad & baked potato salad were really good. We plan to return this weekend for burnt ends & jalapeño cheddar sausage links I wish My 4 Sons was in my hometown!“

“Delicious barbecue and sides 🤤“

“Terry is great and all the smoked meats were Heavenly. The smoked Buffalo chicken Mac and cheese is so freaking good. I barely talked the whole time I ate because I kept wanting to fill my mouth with food. The wings fell right off the bone.“
