Bee Chrite: I loveeeeee this slows!Every time I go there the food is so good. Not to mention the drinks. I had a sezarec(?) that was amazing. I love seeing what the bartenders can do there.I usually get the yardbird sandwich which is PERFECTION. Last time I got the big three, I think it was called. The brisket, apple chicken and pulled pork were so amazing I couldn’t even finish it there. I wanted to go home and put it on my bread. lol I love this place and I love going. Slow’s to go is amazing but it’s something about visiting the sit down restaurant that I love. it’s a vibe.

Eddie Smith: Great local place to grab lunch with colleagues or clients. I've had three business lunches here and the food, service, and atmosphere have been great every time. "The Reason" sandwich is absolutely delicious and I would say that it is almost too much sandwich for most people to handle in one sitting... so be careful. The atmosphere is low key and the servers do a great job of checking in and topping off drinks while being pretty low key as well.

Red Smoke Barbecue: what do users think?
A Warren: We REALLY wanted the fried pickles after seeing pictures from everyone else, but they evidently don't make them anymore ☹️ the brisket and Cole slaw I ordered was good though. The staff was nice and no complaints on our service. The food came out almost instantly!!They do add 15% gratuity for you, like most places nearby. Don't like it? Go elsewhere. Burger King may be more your speed. You won't get the option to stiff waitstaff around here.The music they were playing was mid. More local house music, less top 40 from 10 years ago. What they had on TV was whack too.. At least put on the food network or something. I would order for takeout next time.
Carmen Gamlin: It was just sad. This will not happen again.
Murad Efendiev: 2 stars only for the kind lady. I have never had worse smoked brisket in my life. It is actually a feat to dry the meat but leave the fat unrendered. Even the cuts from new piece were bad. And im not trying to be petty. I came in super hungry I’d eat anything at that point. It’s crime against food. Prices don’t help it either.Never coming back even at gun point.
Jay Gee: Red Smoke? Red Joke. Genuinely the worst barbecue I’ve ever had, and I’ve been around the block. They should consider a rebrand with a more appropriate name such as “D.R.Y” or “BLAND”—using the old English Detroit D, of course. I ordered the brisket and, when doing so, was given the option of ‘moist or lean.’ I, of course, opted for moist brisket, but upon arrival, it was anything but. If you told me that it was cooked in a dishwasher instead of a smoker, I would believe you. There was zero flavor of any kind at all, no char, no fat, no seasoning—nothing. To make matters worse, the pulled pork was cold. In an effort to salvage my $25 combo, I tried every barbecue sauce they had to make the leather belts they call ‘brisket’ palatable. The sauces were super uninspired and tasted like doctored up ketchup, maple syrup, etc. Our server knew it was trash too because as soon as our food was delivered, she literally disappeared until it was time for the bill—no ‘how is everything?’, ‘can I get you anything else?’, etc. And don’t get me started on the automatically-billed 15% gratuity with the opportunity to write-in an ‘additional tip’….A disgraceful affront to food.
Donya Ray: I ordered through ubereats first-time customer the ribs and the chicken were dry and overcooked the candy sweet potatoes taste like they were out of a can the macaroni and cheese was bland and tasteless and the only edible thing in the entire box what's the cornbread highly disappointed will not be back will not recommend.Food: 1/5 …More

Didn’t seem like they wanted to seat us at first but our server was nice and responsive. They do force a 20% gratuity which I always feel like you get less help with places like that with them knowing they’re receiving it already just my opinion.

Daryl McLeese: Have reached out for information re: a visit 10 times or more over the course of a few weeks and they do not return calls, emails, etc. Very unprofessional.
Alex Phillips: It took me about 20 minutes to get a drink each time i asked for one. i had to go up to the bar each time and remind them that i asked for one. when i got the brisket it was not even close to edible. it was dry and barely even warm. would not recommend
A.A. S.: I wish I could rate zero because that’s what this place deserves. This was the most expensive garbage I’ve ever been served in my life. Brisket was absolutely disgusting, bland, zero seasoning, fatty, and looked more like it was boiled than smoked. The candied sweet potatoes were gross as well, no flavor and over cooked. The slaw was bland too and literally just looked like wilted shredded lettuce. The overpriced mac n cheese wasn’t good either, just zero flavor. The sauces were nasty as well. Server Chevell was the worst, coldest, most inattentive server I’ve ever encountered and should be fired. I was charged 50 bucks for that garbage. Don’t waste your time or your money. I personally wouldn’t go back if they paid me. Total rip off.
Lisa Stacey: Recommended dishes Wings, Fried PicklesMore
Steve C: Genuinely one of the worst BBQ experiences i've ever had. Chose the "moist" option for my brisket and it ended up being drier than a leather belt tanning out in the Arizona heat for 3 years. For the insane price for a combo you'd expect the food to be top quality but that wasn't the case at all, virtually all aspects were super underwhelming. Far better BBQ places in Detroit.

Michelle Wyckoff: I have been going to Nunns BBQ for some years now, I absolutely enjoy the food. My family now gets their BBQ from Nunns too.Normally I get the same thing from Nunns but, yesterday (May 11, 2023) I decided to get a different side item. Nunns has a system that records your name, phone number and what you have ordered in the past.Therefore, I called and asked the older lady who answered the phone what other side items they offer. And this extremely rude older lady said to me "you come here often don't you know." I was taken back from her rudeness and I said to her "I'm trying to spend my money with you, there's no reason to be rude." She then says she was joking however, as I mentioned to her, her tone never changed, very aggressive. This rude behavior continued and I ended up saying how I will give you a bad review on Google and she said "good." And she disconnected the call.Needless to say I did not spend my hard earned money with this black owned and ran business.Another typical black owned businesses with bad attitude. I am a black business owner who pride myself in customer service. I have seen this same lady being rude to customers in person. Sadly, their customer service does not match the taste of their food.Nunns BBQ need to practice in better customer service if they want people to continue to patronize them. Or simply do not allow that older woman answer calls and take orders. This lady deserves the rating of a negative star, not a one star.

PAC BABY: The good - if they tell you 15-20mins it's going to be 15-20mins.The food was fresh.The bad -the older lady taking the order seems not to know how customer service works she was very rude.This was my first time there so I wasn't familiar with the menu, She was irritated with the fact that I didn't know how they dinners was set up as far as sides.I would understand if they was packed but it was just me in there. I asked her to calm down so I can order I ordered ribtip combo and a half of slab comboThe Mac is maybe for some but not for me it was like KFC macaroni u could eat it w a spoon no flavorThe ribs had potential I just couldn't get over the propane or gas, lighter fluid whatever they cook the meat on you can taste it.Eat at your own risk Maybe I just caught them on a bad day

T Driver Smith: FOOD IS GOOD AND THE SERVICE IS GOOD ALSO!!!
La Trice R Herring: The smokey flavor of the ribs was very good! They were tender, meaty, and juicy. I could've had a little more sauce on them. I think the ribs would also be pretty good with no sauce because of how juicy and tender they were (not certain about the seasoning). Corn bread muffin didn't seem completely done. Asked for bar b cue fries was hardly any sauce on them. Rib tips were very tender and juicy, wasn't as smoked as the ribs and the sauce taste different (this is a fan favorite, was advised it doesn't usually taste like this) it was good though. Macaroni and cheese didn't seem homemade/ from scratch, but it was good. Prices were reasonable for a whole slab dinner, cornbread muffin was extra cost. portion for were decent, except the fries, which oddly were cold while other food was hot. I would definitely visit again, would like to perhaps try other sides. Heard the shrimp and fish are delicious, wonder what the portions are like. I'm a local and this was my first time here.Parking: Pay attention to the signs to assure you're parking/ standing appropriately, police were in the area. Busy street that is narrow, so pull closest to the curb as possible.
Jose Flores: Good customer service.Nine people

Parks Old Style Bar-B-Q: what do users think?
betty Lewis: I used to love Parks barbecue until my recent visit on May 28th I don’t live in the city anymore but I do attend church there. After church on Sunday I decided to stop by Parks, the website states they open at 1pm. I get there a little before 1 along with several other people who were waiting outside. A little after 1 I Called into the establishment a lady answer she was very rude. I asked her what time they opened and I also mentioned the website states 1 pm she told me to call back in 30 minutes they were still preparing things that’s she I let her know I was outside along with several other people waiting. They finally open the door around 1:30 or so. I placed my order and she states the ribs had went up to 44 dollars and it will be 20 minutes so I should go back to my car and wait (she was just nasty for no reason). I finally got my ribs when I got home I discovered Burt ribs they were ALL chopped up totally not worth the money. I will definitely stick with Famous Daves moving forward or cook my own. Not only do you not value your customers time you’re mean and nasty for no reason. Change the time you open and update the website you will get better results as for me I’m done I’ll never be back. One more thing the place still looks the same as it did when I was a kid no updates at ALL!!
HNIC Ware: I been coming to PARKS since i was a child and things have been getting worst since..Worst service in the city ...im all for black business but this business has no repsect for there customers..deciding when they want to sell there sauce separately ...worst service best sauce...timenfor them to pass the company to a organization that can keep up...

Daja Johnson: The lady behind that counter is rude as you know what!!!! I’m just door dash I’ve been waiting for an hour OR MORE for something that’s supposed to be ready by the time I arrive, the times are strict for a reason… she needs to find something she enjoys because her dealing with customers isn’t it… I wouldn’t spend my money here if it was the last restaurant in detroit…
Jose Dorsey: I sent my wife to pick up some food for us thinking about how good this place used to be over 8 years ago. We were terribly disappointed by so many things. Let's begin with the customer service. Some of the worst we've ever experienced. We understand that they were under-manned and over worked but that's not an excuse for rudeness and unprofessional conduct. The food is nothing like it used to be. The sauce used to be spicy and delicious but somehow they changed the recipe and it's disgusting now. It's bad when you can't get a simple order of fries with barbeque sauce right. The peach cobbler didn't have a single peach in it and it was super bland. The mac and cheese tasted worse than the kind from the box. My jalapeño poppers were burned to the point that all I could taste was nasty, old grease and charred batter. This place is horrible and they really should be ashamed of themselves for this. Don't waste your money on this place. My family, friends, and I will never return to this place.

Dakar Brown: Everything was slamming today I can't say nothing nothing bad
Bernadette H: Shout out to Felicia today for the excellent service on my order! Texas Style has long been a neighborhood staple. And the fried okra are real, and not frozen! 😋😋😋
K Edwards: OMG!! You just can’t lose with Texas Style’s smoked meat seasoned so well as it tastes absolutely fantastic WITHOUT sauce so it’s outstanding with sauce, So tender the meat slides right off the bone!! The sides are good, especially the cole slaw which is slappin!! But I come for the meats & usually buy 2 slab dinners, 1 with sauce & 1 without, bbq fries, baked beans, greens & slaw. Words of Wisdom: If you go there after 8pm you’ll be disappointed with the hard meat that’s been in the smoker all day, so go earlier & Good Eatin😋I’ll post sum pix on my next visit👀
Michelle Angela: Best ribs in the City. The end!
Luvli Uno: Delicious! Thank you Felicia for bringing Texas Style back.
George Middlebrook: Been going there 20 years or more. The best ribs in town. The meat falls off the bone. Peach cobbler is great. In the "hood" so if your soft don't go. On Fenkell 😎
Brittany Saffold: My daddy used to take me here when I was a little kid.. The food is still GREATT.. 🤞🏾👌🏾👏🏾👏🏾
A Wilson: I love all they food but if you ain't tried they Baked Beans you missing out on life
Maria Mariweather: I’m going to be real I was skeptical of this place from the moment my boyfriend pulled up. But he usually recommends good food. There were no cars lined up like it was high demand. Anyway they are TAXING you get no sides everything is extra on top of the $20 u have to spend just for the meat. So I ordered $45 later they locked the door I was waiting on my food. I’m actually still waiting on my food as I write this I hope this food is good because it’s a no for me already. The lady was really really nice but next time I’ll go to UPTOWN BBQ on Livernois they are the TRUTH!
1000gohead: Good ribs 👍🏾

Lucky's Noble Fire + Smoke: what do users think?
Elizabeth Goudie: Food was amazing! I had dreams about it for days!!
Michele Lindsay: We love the delicious high quality food at Lucky’s! Every item on the menu is crafted with love and care—amazing thought process behind each sumptuous dish.
Molly Brieden: Lucky’s blend of spices is so unique and delicious - a real treat for your senses! The wagyu is tender and flavorful as is the salmon! The waffle brunch is a favorite of our family, but the kids love, love the gluten-free Mac and cheese! The customer service is top notch - they will do whatever they can to make your food experience one to remember!
Nancy Richarf: My dinner was fantastic! Perfection in flavor and presentation.
Victor Mitchell: LUCKY NOBLE BBQ HAS A NICE ATMOSPHERE BUT I TRIED TO ORDER RIBS I WAS TOLD THEY WERE OUT, I DARE SAY HOW CAN YOU BE OUT OF RIBS. IJS
Jeremy Warner: The food was awesome and the customer service was great even after I left! (I needed some information and they got back with me promptly.)
Wade Snaps: Great food.
Chris Poindexter: This is a great place to get Gluten Free BBQ. All their food is Gluten Free.
bradlee clegg: Oh, my goodness. No pork, no gluten, all delicious.Whether you have food allergies or not, this place is amazing! the beans and bbq sauce were a little spicy, so be warned.
Greg Moots: Amazingly tender brisket, but very little smoke ring or bark. Not really worth $18 for 3 slices and a side of Cole slaw.
Toby: The waygu sandwich was great! Really good bread and it tastes great. Didn't hold together well. Their BBQ sauces are a bit spicy, but taste good. Not a fan of the fries, too much cheese stuff for me.
Darlene Yow: Lucky's BBQ is in a new set of four restaurants in the, as "They" say, the "Up and Coming Detroit." It's very, very overpriced. Not unlike many of the other restaurants that are now in Downtown Detroit. The Wagyu beef IS very good and it IS very fatty. My understanding is that the fattiest adds to the flavor, but the beef is from Japan and bred differently to make it healthier. I'm from Texas and can state Lucky's beef is good IF the little lady that works there does not smash it down to remove some of the grease, aka, flavor. Sometimes you just can't win.Anyway, I'd say try it once. Bring your wallet. Indulge in the Ginger drink. It's $5.00, but quite tasty. So, to finish off, I only go to this restaurant because of the convenience of where I work. I would not suggest it otherwise.
andrew valentine: Dissatisfied with my meal here. Food was overpriced for the portions and quality. 7 dollars for a 4 oz cup of mac and cheese that had a striking resembalance to the taste of mac n cheese powder sauce from box... Only thing i did enjoy was the over priced craft rootbeer... And the bisquit/bun they used for their sandwhich.. Do not recommend
Bryce Owens: This is good food and a nice place
John Loved: Best ever

Joe Ann's Bar B-Q: what do users think?
David Arnold: They have fell off the ribs are tuff now the sauce is not the same been going to Joe Ann's since the early 80's and they was the best they changed and raise the prices last time I will.ever go it was.good while it lasted ✌️ to Joe Ann's close down you.fell.off

Cynthia McClure: I expected chargrilled and got boiled...Food: 3/5|Service: 3/5 …More
Florence Peterson: Love Joe Ann's Bar B Q must haveSome every now and then.
lee young: With a name like Joe Ann's BBQ it's certain things I expect like ribs cooked on a grill, charcoal, maybe even some wood chips tossed in there but it was none of the above. Ribs were boiled😤. What respectable BBQ restaurant serves boiled ribs! And that vinegar juice they call sauce needs its own paragraph to talk about. Needless to say Joe Ann's is on my do not return to list.
lynette fikes: Love there sauce, ribs & tips, shrimps,& peach cobbler. Sauce could be a little thicker like back in 80's
Kathy Johnson: WAY OVERPRICED AND MY FOOD DID NOT HAVE A GOOD PRESENTATION I WAITED ON HOLD SO LONG I LITERALLY DROVE THERE AND THEN ORDERED 🤦🏽‍♀️ NOT TO MENTION ONCE I ORDERED I WANTED TO TRY THE TURKEY RIBS SO IT SAIDT.RIBS( ONLY )$6.50 IT RING IN $8.50…SHE SAID ITS A PRICE INCREASE..I ALSO ORDERED A SMALL RIB TIP DINNER TOGETHER THIS CAME UP TO $22.90I OPEN THE CONTAINER IT HAS 2 PIECES OF WHITE BREAD 5 RIB TIPS AND 1 TURKEY RIB THE MAC AND CHEESE A NO‼️COLESLAW WAS OLD WITH MAYONNAISE NOT SLAW DRESSING I WASTED MY MONEY 💰 I SHOULD OF PUT IT IN MY GAS TANK INSTEAD . ALSO I TOOK THE FOOD BACK INSIDE BECAUSE I OPENED IT ALL OF THE MEAT AND MAC/C WERE MIXED TOGETHER. NO KIND OF NAPKINS OR SETTING TO EAT WITH 🤦🏽‍♀️😐😳
Dominick Sevier: This is the only place that I come to get my beef ribs
Theresa Anderson: I Loveeeee this place. They even catered the food for my husband Steven repass. Their rib tips are second to none.
ric allen: I called in my order at 8pm and the great lady was more concerned about me getting the right sauce (they have mild, medium, and hot) she stated this is your first time here and I want to make you happy. She wasn't worried about what time she got done. When I came there they all treated me like family. They have been there since 1951 and I see why.
Jacqui: Okay so Joanne’s was my go to spot back in the days. I remember when the rib tips tasted like they were fresh off the grill and now it taste like it was fresh out of the oven with liquid smoke added. Mac and cheese…. Absolutely not! It is not homemade and it reminds of the box brand with extra cheese added minus 0 seasonings. Never have I ever had pig feet that were chewy and crunchy in certain spots. I am beyond disappointed and I will never be back. The shrimp dinner looked like salad shrimp gently dipped in batter which means the majority of the shrimp was pink and not covered in batter. The old days are gone apparently and it is sad…The only thing that remains the same is the sauce. It is amazing but I am done with patronizing restaurants that serve food that is mediocre with higher prices. I am willing to pay extra due to everything being higher however I do expect quality. I gave an extra star for the amazing lady behind the counter. She tried but I know she is tired 😪
carol Cobb: Food good, just a long wait for your food
Cheryl Miller: Has been there since 1951.And the food is food to the soul"Put u In a food heaven
Mitzi Roberts: After all these years, still delicious
Dae Dae: The worst beef ribs I had in my life !! It’s literally like they took all the meat off the bones and gave them to me .. plus I drove 30 miles round trip to get my food and was highly disappointed with the quality and quantity
Nilla Bean: Good quality (BBQ) food. It's a bit of a wait, but it's worth it. The food is flavorful and presented nice and neat. You can tell they take pride in service.
Aubrey Stamps: Restaurant I use to patronize growing up in the 60's and 70's. Brought back good memories and the food is still good.
Robert Davis: Food was awful very slow service had to wait 45 minutes to be servedOutdoor seating: No Takeout: Yes …More
Kisha Smiles: Basic food I won't be back, nothing about my dinner impressed me oven bbq
Stacey D Willoughby: Potato salad good, black eyed peas needs work, the rib tips where just ok, I've had better from this place.

Smokey G's Smokehouse: what do users think?
Mike Sims: The worses bbq I have ever had in I mean the worses I wouldn't recommend it to a dog
Bryan Henderson: I ordered a brisket sandwich meal and was told they ran out of brisket for the day. The manager came back with a big slab of smoked beef to make it right that was delicious.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
lance hickman: I bought 58 dollars worth of food and tipped 12 with a card I almost never use. It wasn't 10 mins past getting my order when that same card tried buying stuff on Walmart.com.somebody there is a crook and stole my card info. Food was overpriced but decent.
Streetbob2006: Nice place. Food is good but out of most things. Which is surprising since it’s a very limited menu. Also it’s a bit pricey for what you get. Parking is not convenient. Especially since my wife is handicap.
Jennifer Keller: Amazing food! The ribs were so flavorful, moist, and smoky that you really didn't even need the sauce that came with them. The pulled chicken sandwich was good too, but the ribs are really where it's at. Mac and cheese was excellent. Beans and cole slaw were great too. The owner Greg is very nice and enjoys sharing his methods, history, etc. Do not skip this place!
Derek Richards: The beef ribs are some of the best I ever had
Carsen Marisnick: amazing food and amazing experience! cashier and bartender were very kind and the food was OUTSTANDING!!
Jacob Lopez: Food: 4/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 1/5Recommended dishes Pulled Pork Sandwich, Brisket Sandwich, Pulled Pork, Rib Sandwich Parking space Plenty of parking Parking options Free parking lotMore
Vincent Padget: Highly overpriced food that is very chewy... not a word I like to associate with pulled pork or salmon. I would avoid, their are places were you can get 3 times the amount of food for the same cost and have it be actually cooked right.
Jackie Taeckens: Delicious! Friendly service, great views of the riverFood: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
Rick Johnson: Unbelievably delicious food! Not sure why there wasn’t a line around the block for this place! We had the brisket, rib tips and Mac and cheese. Everything was hot, fresh and delicious. Super nice people too. We’ll be back!
Martti Peeples: I was referred to Smokey G's last year. Greg not only cooked my turkey, he delivered it to me.This year my co-workers wanted to do a potluck and I turned to Greg again, this time a smoked Brisket. My co-workers are still talking about the main dish.I will be using his services again. Great atmosphere, friendly. You will not go wrong selecting Smokey G's for your Holiday season or any other occasion.
David Borowsky: We absolutely love the food here! They have smokers out back so its the real deal. They know what they're doing! We've had the brisket and pulled pork. I feel like their sides are pricey but they are good.
Gerhard Doberstein: Tastes good, but portion to small 😞Had a pulled pork sandwich.Food: 4/5|Service: 3/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More
Jessica: Mac has too much thick course black pepper for my liking. Coleslaw was 👍. The salmon was pretty good, i was turned off by the bones in it . Kind of pricey everything is ! À la carte
Jack Danielewicz: Greatest ribs/brisket in the world. Cobbler was good and the environment is great, as there is a park and river right next to it. Easily 5 stars!
Shanika 313: Adding 2 my first review. Rib tips are too good & so tender! I’ve had the majority of the menu through my MULTIPLE visits and I haven’t been disappointed yet! Turkey and Brussel sprouts yummy AF too! Perfectly seasoned and prepared! And the catering is a blessing for my family with strenuous work schedules! Rib tips, salmon, hot sausage, half chicken, ribs 😋🤤 Brisket ALL melts n your mouth!
Mike G: I ordered the rib sandwich with a side of mac and cheese. It came with three bones, a piece of wheat bread, and a little container of slaw. Also included was oz cup of sauce. The ribs didn't have any on them. The sauce was sweet with a little heat and the coleslaw was tasty but the star of the show were the fall off the bone ribs. They were seasoned well and very tender. The Mac and cheese was ok but I've had better. It was good enough to keep the five star rating.
keith wisdom: Turkey and salmon was the bestGood customer service
