What I liked about this place is the lunch menu, what a great value!! You get a choice of sandwich (4 types of meat) pickles and onions if u like, choice of 2 sides one is 4 ounces and the other is 8 ounces all great choices of sides, and a drink. I had the chopped beef brisket, green beans, Horse radish coleslaw, and lemon aid. All very good. The only thing I wish I had, was extra bbq sauce, but otherwise very good. Would highly recommend read more

Wow! The food was amazing! I think this is the best bbq in Indy. We had the wings and they were super juicy inside, and crispy outside. The brisket was moist and delicious, and the ribs were just the way I like them. We also enjoyed the mustard sauce, so give that a try too ;) read more

This is some really great barbecue to say the least. I really enjoyed the friendly staff. The modern sleek interior design was great and it has a phenomenal vibe. I got the lunchbox and it comes with a sandwich with a smoked meat of your choosing, an 8oz side, and a 4oz side. I got the pulled pork with white Mac and cheese and baked beans. The pulled pork was moist and flavorful, with some toasted buttery buns which complimented greatly. The beans tasted great, they were smoaky and had a nice little kick to them. The Mac and cheese was good, was a little dryer than I normally prefer, but overall was very good. Great spot and I would definitely recommend! read more

I have already enjoyed 317 Burger so I've been wanting to check this place out. I stopped in for lunch without the family since they aren't big BBQ fans. Enjoyed the $15 lunch special which was the Brisket sandwich, there was enough meat for 2 sandwiches and the meat was very tender and juicy with some good bark at the ends. You get an 8oz side and 4oz side-I got chili and baked beans. Would have liked to had a French fry option but both sides were really good. Their homemade pickles are tasty too. The server was really friendly and checked on me frequently . I will be back! read more

For our second time (and first time dining in), we opted for sandwiches on the patio in beautiful weather. The sandwiches were both with a skillful toasted brioche bun - small, yes, but important. We both had hearty servings of meat on each sandwich, mine brisket and his pulled pork. I'm a fan of the mustard sauce personally, but the sweet BBQ is tasty too. read more

317 BBQ is great! Best friend and I were craving some meat. I got beef brisket he got a pulled pork sandwich with the Mac n cheese. It is on the pricey side but worth every penny! The brisket literally fell apart cooked to perfection and sauces were delicious!! read more

We got our food very quickly and it was hot. I got the ribs with the 317 BBQ sauce and they fell right off of the bone. They were delicious. The Mac and cheese was delicious as well. The cornbread could have used some more honey on the top but I would try it again. The pulled pork bbq sandwich with the 317 bbq sauce was also a hit. If you aren't the best at parking I would not advise you park in their lot because it can get congested in there and isn't the easiest to get out of but there are a lot of parking options in that area which is nice. We will definitely be back! read more

317 BBQ - 1/2 lb of pork spare ribs and cornbread (closest) and pulled pork and Mac n cheese. - Barbeque Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

We went to 317 this weekend and I was surprised how quiet Broad Ripple was on a Saturday. Maybe it is the construction, recent violence, or the establishment of a scene in Fountain Square and Mass Ave. There are a handful of free parking spots at 317 BBQ, nice. Service is friendly and because they're slow, quick. A taproom is available for dining in, overall the atmosphere is fun, except for the lack of people. Now, for the important stuff, the food. The BBQ had a nice smokiness to everything but is one note, rich and Smokey. The chicken cuban had pickles, slaw, but they were overwhelmed and didn't add enough acid to counteract the richness of the meat and cheese. The pastrami sandwich is also too rich and could use some acidity. The smoky corn and compound butter tasty good. Overall, I'd try 317 again, but probably wouldn't get the pastrami. read more

Wow, the barbecue here really delivered! My husband, good friend, and I went to dinner here on a Saturday night in beautiful weather and were seated right away in the garden area. Service was prompt and attentive. We tried the pork spare ribs, pulled pork, and beef brisket meats as well as the classic, sweet heat, and vinegar sauces. All the meats seriously impressed. Tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture and phenomenal flavor. The sauces were great accompaniments too! As for sides--we tried the cornbread (my husband raved about the bacon butter!), the mac and cheese, the potato salad, and the baked beans. All were really good! My favorite was the mac and cheese--super creamy and the noodles had a great bite. Not mushy like some other bbq restaurant sides! All in all, an awesome experience. We'll definitely be back! read more

This was a spur of the moment decision to dine at 317BBQ. It was a beautiful night so the doors and windows were open. Easily found a table and after reviewing the menu, I chose the combo opting for two briskets instead of one... so happy with that choice! The combo comes with two choices of sides- my option... the deviled potato salad and the cornbread. Yummmmm. The potato salad had great flavor and is a healthy portion (I took some home!) The cornbread, while they say can be shared, I did not. I went with the mustard sauce which was tangy and sweet. The pickles that are served as a little extra are marinated in a vinegar and again, have great flavor! They aren't just plain pickles. Not shown on the menu with the combo? A nice little cookie! The service was fast and our waitress, Allison, was so helpful. While we were sitting there, there was a steady stream of pick-up orders. If you need a carry-out or dine in option, give 317BBQ a try! They also have a rewards program and free parking next to the building. read more

Wow, this place is a MUST! I am a big bbq fan and 317 BBQ exceeded my expectations. Firstly, the restaurant is currently carry out only. The online ordering system is user friendly and efficient. Our meal was ready in about 20 minutes for curbside pickup. My boyfriend and I ordered quite a lot of food. We ordered the brisket, 1 lb ribs, mac n cheese, green beans and corn bread. The brisket was some of the best I've ever had. Ribs were fall off the bone. All the sides were delicious, as well. The barbecue sauces are great, too. I have nothing but positive reviews for 317 BBQ. I cannot wait to order again. A great addition to Brip! read more

Happy to see a new spot in that area. I already love 317 Burger so I knew I needed to try the BBQ. my husband ordered the ribs while I ordered the brisket. The highlight of the meal was the cornbread! Ordering was so easy, I was able to do the order online when I picked up I simply pulled up and called in. I look forward to ordering more! read more

I ordered takeout and was not disappointed. I got the brisket and it was delicious. The brisket sauce was tasty, but for me the sweet heat was the best sauce I've had in awhile. I ordered green beans and the horseradish coleslaw as sides. The green beans were my favorite. The coleslaw was good but I was hoping for more of a horseradish bite. I will definitely be coming back! read more

I always loved this building when it was Burger Fuel so I was happy to see another restaurant take up shop here. The counter is still present and you order there for take out, but for in person dining you sit down and enjoy the waitstaff. Menus are delivered via QR code as many places have done during the time of COVID. I got the pulled pork sandwich "lunch box" which comes with a drink and a large and small side. I choose the baked beans and cole slaw. Both were good but the pork was the star. Soft and moist yet crispy with charred ends-- this is probably the best pulled pork I've ever had. Honestly, if it's not the best pulled pork you've had please let me know where it's better. I must know! read more

Had an amazing dinner at 317 BBQ! We chose to eat outside at the picnic tables. The service was great too, our waitress was very friendly. We chose to go with the Duo Deal and split it since we could try a bit of everything! We got all we could stuff ourselves with and more to take home! For our meal we picked: ribs, brisket ($4 upgrade) green beans, mac and cheese, corn bread. It also comes with two biscuits, two homemade cookies, onions and bread. The meat just fell off the bone and melted in our mouths! We paired it with the 317 Classic BBQ and Sweet Heat for our sauces. Both the biscuits and cornbread were an amazing surprise with a combo of flavors I didn't expect. I also could definitely eat a whole gallon of the white cheddar mac and cheese and not regret any of it! I loved our whole experience and I will 100% be back for more! read more

Omg I should have knew this place was trouble when I first walked in. My server Rachel had a huge smile on her face and knew exactly who I was and she was ready to crip walk all over my taste buds with this Texas style bbq. Was I in for a treat! I sampled the pork ribs (super flavorful), chili (surprise at the bottom), Thursday special (pork melt...can we say oink oink) and lastly the pastrami melt...ummmm call the fireman because this food was but I don't want to be put out! Free parking (which is super hard in this area), in house carry out (that's cheaper than you know who), they cater so hit them up for your office get together/parties or just stop in for a bite like I did. And when you do, tell them your favorite @travelingfoodieguyde sent you and tag me in your pics/videos and let me know what you thought! read more

We did the duo deal with the brisket, green beans, Mac and cheese, and coleslaw (1/2 pint each). Cookies and biscuits included. Added cornbread and the banana pudding to try and an extra 1/2 pint of Mac and cheese because weren't sure how hungry the kiddo was, but the original deal was plenty. We had leftovers of everything 2.5 of us). I'll preface by saying we will definitely be ordering again. Pick up was quick. Ready within 10 mins on a Friday at 5 pm. Food was warm when we got home. Brisket. So so good. The fatty part just melts in your mouth. I don't know how much to say it but the brisket was just so good. Sauce. We did classic and the sugar free. Honestly, we didn't like either, the sugar free was like tomato paste? I don't know, but not a fan. The classic was fairly vinegar-y and my husband want a fan. I'm not even mad about it. Know why? That brisket was so good I wouldn't advise putting any sauce on it anyway. Even if the sauce was good I think we would skip it. Like why is sauce even offered for this, it's offensive to the meat. So much flavor and melts in your mouth. There was an option for no sauce and when ordering I thought "who would order no sauce?". Next time, we will that's who! For real. Just get the brisket, skip the sauce, and watch your life change before you. Sides. Green beans were great. Everyone loved them. Mac and cheese was great. Nice and creamy, I do like when you get that cheesey crust on top, ours didn't have it but didn't notice much till after because it was really good. The coleslaw was OK. I like mine a tad sweeter, so added a pinch of truvia on the leftovers and it was perfect for me the next day. Horseradish was enough to taste but not enough to make you cry. Would order all these again or maybe try something new. Or stick with it. Who knows. Biscuits. My husband hates biscuits. Didnt think that was possible like who hates biscuits? Not this southern gal. But man, did he finish every last bite. So fluffy and big. Great flavor. I don't even know what was on top of it, butter? Honey? Both? Don't know, don't care. Delicious. Get them. Cornbread. It was cornbread. Nothing special. I'd get the biscuits over the cornbread. Whatever the spread they added, my kid ate up all the way. Not sure what it was, but it was good. But those biscuits were on point. I'd pass the cornbread for the biscuits for sure. Desserts. The cookies were super gooey in the middle nice little crunch on the outside. Pretty perfect. The banana pudding my husband loved and he's pretty picky with banana pudding. Overall. Loved it. Great portion. Great deal. 2.5 of us and it was definitely enough for 2 meals with a little extra which I love as well. Nice to have a bbq nearby! P.s. If it wasn't clear, get the brisket! :) read more

Most important part of this review: the Amish Half Chicken is the best BBQ chicken I've ever had. "Oh great... Another BBQ place coming to town..." That's exactly what I thought when I heard 317 BBQ was moving in to 6320 Guilford Ave in Broad Ripple, space that was previously occupied by the ill-fated BurgerFuel. My wife, two children and I stopped in before our trip to see Winterlights at Newfields. The place was completely dead, which wasn't necessarily bad since we have two kids under age six but also made me wonder, "why aren't there more people here?" That question quickly faded when we took our first few bites. The inside was fairly bland but the smell of smoked meat quickly made up for any interior decor shortcomings. I personally appreciate the approach. You're there for the food, not the decorations. At the counter we were provided a simple one-page menu that didn't overwhelm. They also don't have a kids menu but every item came with generous portions to share among us. Our order included: half pound of pulled pork with classic BBQ and vinegar sauce, half local Amish chicken with classic BBQ and vinegar sauce, smoked sausage, buttermilk biscuits, cornbread, and two white cheddar mac & cheese. They currently do not have a license to sell adult beverages, so we kept it simple with water and sodas. All orders are taken at the counter, which was a bit of a challenge with the loud music (more on that later) and COVID-19 compliant masks to muffle our voices. Before our order arrived, I was greeted by one of the owners who gave me a brief tour of the additional space in the back. I was shocked at how much real estate they have to work with. There is definitely more to the facility than meets the eye when viewed from Guilford Ave. During the walk through he shared their vision for how they plan to activate the space in the future. I won't share all of the details but I'm excited to see how it turns out. When I returned to our table I started paying attention to the loud music I found distracting while ordering. Pearl Jam, Everclear, 311, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Red Hot Chili Peppers, etc., an excellent assortment of my favorite 90's rock/alternative groups. The orders arrived on paper lined metal trays with paper food trays and disposable utensils (as they should at a BBQ spot). I worked my way around the table sampling each item before digging in to my main event: the half Amish chicken. Everything was delicious. The only gripe my wife and I had was that the pulled pork could have been a little warmer. However, that didn't distract us from how tasty it was. The kids woofed down the sausage and mac & cheese without complaints. The sauces were straightforward and didn't overpower the meats. I probably won't order the vinegar sauce again but it wasn't bad by any means. For me, the star of the show was the half Amish chicken. WOW! I can honestly say I've never had a better barbecued chicken. Every bite was extremely tender and had the right amount of smoke. The skin was perfectly seasoned and didn't suffer from the over-salting plague that typically accompanies BBQ chicken. Bravo! 317 BBQ is a great addition to Broad Ripple. We will return. read more

Out for lunch and thought we'd try this place. Love the taste of good bbq! Unfortunately we were very disappointed with the lack of seasoning and smoked flavor in the pulled chicken and brisket. We found that the brisket was way overcooked and dry like maybe it was from the day before and reheated did not like at all. The chicken wasn't too bad, it was moist just lacked seasoning. We had the green beans as a side, I must say that was full of flavor and was very tasty. The portion size was pretty good. Staff were friendly and prompt. We were the only ones in the building for lunch so it was super quiet. I also really enjoyed my orange blood IPA not sure that we will return but glad we gave it a shot. read more

Had a craving for some bbq vibes and I came to to the right place. I can't believe I had never heard of this place but I think it's relatively new to broad ripple. Very flavorful menu items & knowledgeable staff. I went with the brisket sandwich, it was really juicy & satisfying. I will be visiting again to try the pulled pork and baked beans. They are great sitting down to eat & for take out, my food came nicely packaged in containers you could even keep and reuse in your home. Highly recommend 317 bbq! read more

The environment is very casual and laid back. Usually, they aren't very busy and you're served fairly quickly. The food is pretty good, but the portions of meat are small. They serve the meat by weight, so if you get a two meat combo more than likely you're getting one of each piece. I'm used to a larger portion of bbq, so this was a slight disappointment. The Mac and cheese was ok for a restaurant, but the green beans lacked seasoning. read more

The Brisket was delicious, though I did not get any pickle or onion with it. I was not serviced or helped by anyone when I walked in, and the overall environment was not pleasant or welcoming at all. I recommend you go to Half Liter BBQ instead! read more

The food was in my opinion probably more like four stars. But overall like 2 1/2 because of the food portions. When you go to a barbecue place you should never leave hungry. When the food came out we bought the dinner for three and it literally was dinner for one. I learned my lesson. I'll never ever go back here ever again. I guess how dare I think they give a generous food portion at a barbecue place. But last time I checked that was normal protocol for these types of places. So at the end of the day almost $60 for two adults to eat the three person meal and leave hungry. I'll be headed to some more authentic barbecue places that I know for sure will give me adequate amounts of food. read more
