Last year we were here before the rodeo, and the prime rib was amazing, today we went before rodeo and the prime rib was tough, and overcooked. They also ran out of prime rib before 5:00 pm. And it wasn't crowded. The servers, as before were friendly and helpful. So we'll give it one more try, but today, disappointed in the quality of prime rib. read more

This is a great place to get your bbq on. I got the $57.00 entree for 3-4 people. It came with shredded pork, brisket, 1/2 chicken and a full slab of ribs. Everything was delicious. Oh it also came with 4 sides as well. The beans and Cole slaw were really good and so was the jalapeno cornbread. I would go back again in a heartbeat. The microbrews are only $5.00 too. The service was top notch too. I really liked the outdoor patio and the huge fire they had out there. Really cool place to go just to have some appetizers on the patio and a cold one. read more

At lunch today been waiting 30 mins for our food. Waitress seems to have an attitude.... Bad service!

Well my mother, brother and sister were visiting from California. We stopped in the Redmond location for lunch. My sister ordered the brisket and sides, my brother ordered the pork ribs and a side and my mother ordered the rib tips with a side. I ordered the brisket with pulled pork and coleslaw. My brother and my sister's meals were great. My mom's rib tips were dry and uneatable. I ordered the brisket and pulled pork. The pork was delicious and the brisket, some was dry and some was cooked with moisture and juicer. My mother's meal was taken off the check. The service was good considering only one waiter was working that we could see. The ambiance was great. read more

Very disappointed. Took over an hour to get our food and it wasn't even very busy. This made us very disappointed. Another fault was the root beer and brisket weren't good at all. One good part was that the ribs were very tasty. This maybe was just an off day and it is usually better but overall it wasn't the best experience. read more

Great food and excellent service. Love the rustic ambiance. It perfectly fits a rib joint. The outdoor dining space was gorgeous.

First time to Baldy's. Seating is like a picnic with high top and low picnic style seating. We had a party of 11 family and service was good. They were out of the catfish, so I ordered the ribs and chicken combo with coleslaw and jalapeno cornbread plus a side of chili, that we shared. I tried their spicy margarita, sadly even with added jalapeños, it was not spicy. The flavor was tangy and a little sweet. I liked it regardless of it not being spicy. The chili was a bit spicy, smokey flavored and hearty with beans, peppers and meat, accompanied by onions, sour cream, cheese and cornbread. I would order this again. The ribs were cooked perfectly, the meat just fell off the bone. Smothered in bbq sauce that was tangy and delicious. I added some spicy bbq sauce from the table to jazz it up a bit. The chicken was disappointing. The breast meat was tough and rubbery, I couldn't even chew it. The leg and thigh meat was cooked well. I think the breast side needed to be cooked awhile longer to get more tender and juicy as they advertise. The coleslaw was crunchy with a nice dressing, not too sweet or runny. The jalapeno cheesy cornbread had no jalapenos in it that I could find. Although the bread itself was good, again I was disappointed that there were no jalapeños to be found. The pulled pork was a little dry yet flavorful. The brisket was also a little dry but with good flavor. I liked most of the meal and would recommend others to give it a try, I personally would not go back. I will seek out some other bbq places to try. read more

The place is just okay.Nothing special and as far as good barbeque i would give it a 3 on a ten scale which is just not good enough.Food needs to be better. read more

Unfortunate Experience @ Baldy's BBQ in Redmond, OR. 1st Problem: The Prime Rib was just horrible. No way around it, tough and chewy, and we politely asked for something else. We were satisfied and happy that Conner, our host/bartender/server was gracious throughout our time here. He took the prime rib off the bill (rightfully so) and checked in on us thoroughly. 2nd Problem: As a replacement for the horrible Prime Rib, we asked for the Brisket Burnt Ends. What a mistake! It was covered in a questionable teriyaki glaze and sesame seeds, of all things... (not BBQ sauce like the menu states) we could have just gone to a Thai restaurant if we were looking for a decent Asian inspired flavor on more tender meat. The smothered fries for an appetizer were good. The pulled pork sandwich was just okay and the side salad was basic, but did have a tasty balsamic dressing to elevate it. The coleslaw and cornbread were pretty good, but the beans were not. The bar area was decent, except for the Problem 3: blaring music which made it hard to have a decent conversation, but good if you aren't? Also, the bathroom Problem 4: doesn't have any paper towels, only a 'hand dryer', which is gross. So yeah, one of us had an okay meal, the other was.... Biggest Problem: up all night in the bathroom... because of the Prime Rib and Brisket Burnt Ends. You've been warned. We won't be returning. read more

Said couldn't order to go food because understaffed! I will never go back ! I called and ordered from red beard s

Food 3.5* Service 4* Ambiance 2* Meat was well smoked, then covered in mediocre bbq sauce. I understand the Kansas City tradition (though I prefer Texas), but BBQ sauce should be more interesting than spicy ketchup. Garlic mashers were quite good, but cornbread would have been better without jalapeños. Also, they serve the butter frozen solid so it never really thaws during the meal. Butter should be kept at room temperature! Service was friendly and quickly corrected an error before I had even mentioned it. Decor is typical for a BBQ restaurant and there are tvs with a good variety of sports on, but the inane country music destroys any semblance of pleasantness. I don't live country music in general, but what they had playing is just bad pop music with a southern twang - the worst of all possible musical worlds. Overall, not my scene but I'm sure it fits many people's expectations, so YMMV. read more

Baldys BBQ - Brisket, garlic mashers, & honey jalapeño cornbread. Pork ribs were brought a little later. - Barbeque Near Me - Redmond, Oregon

We go here every time we're in Redmond and the food is great. Usually we come for the full rack of ribs special and it never disappoints, falling off the bone meat covered in Cat's Meow BBQ sauce. The sides are good too, we like baked beans and coleslaw with a baked potato, but the garlic mashers are good, too. Even when they are busy Jazzy keeps things moving with a great attitude and good service. read more

It's just not good BBQ. It's no where near good BBQ. dry bland. Not cooked right. It's just bad BBQ

I thought the Bbq ( pulled pork Memphis style) was very tasty. I read some of the negative reviews but my experience was positive i thought the onion rings were as good as I have had and were not overcooked at all. I liked they had the BBQ sauce on the table. Service was good on Sunday August 4th 2024. Sorry I ate it all before I took a picture. read more

I recently ordered 2 meals for takeout. One was a half order of ribs with baked beans and a salad. Second order was a brisket plate with cornbread and mac and cheese. Man, has the quality of their food gone downhill! No wonder no one was at the bar and only a few in the restaurant. The ribs were totally dried out and they forgot my order of baked beans. My wife's mac and cheese tasted like it was sitting all day, dry not creamy. It's going to be a while to try them again if ever. If their quality of food stays like this, they won't be around much longer. read more

I had a great experience at Baldy's with an impressive building, delicious food, quick service, and a super kind and caring staff! Don't miss the prime rib, brisket, burnt ends, Hazy IPA, or corn pudding! Jazzy and Leah most definitely made my experience memorable! Yes I ate here Saturday and Sunday post/pre festival and took some home for later both times! read more

Food was delicious. Ribs were so tender. Wish I had taken a picture of our plates. Will definitely be back.

I ordered a Prime Rib Sandwich on 10/9. It was the special of the day. I asked for the prime rib to be medium rare and no blue cheese on top. I picked up my order and to my dismay when I got home I found that the prime rib was beyond well done. I called Baldys to let them know. The girl I spoke to didn't request any of my information and simply said, "I'll tell the chef" then hung up. IS THIS THEIR LEVEL OF CUSTOMER SERVICE??? I sent an email to Baldys the follow day explaining this and they have not responded to the email at all. AGAIN IS THIS THEIR LEVEL OF CUSTOMER SERVICE? I paid $20 for a lunch that I threw out -- that's how overdone it was!! I don't normally indulge myself with a $20 lunch but was celebrating that day. I liked Baldys the few times I went for dinner, however I would recommend to anyone ordering food to pick up from them that you stay there with a waitperson and examine everything before accepting the order. Evidently the chef doesn't know AT ALL how to cook a steak. To add to that Baldys doesn't care about their customers or any level of customer service. It's not a place I intend to go back to. All I can say to Baldys is maybe you can hire an actual Chef that knows how to properly cook a steak. The one you have in Redmond needs to be let go!! Is this person a trained chef???? read more

The brisket is where it's at! But all the food is seriously amazing. My go-to is the brisket sandwich. Also love the Mac & cheese & add pulled pork to it. Great indoor & outdoor seating with a yard area for corn hole. Service is always fantastic. Thanks for the happy full bellies! read more

Baldys BBQ - Brisket sandwich - Barbeque Near Me - Redmond, Oregon

This is a hidden gem in Redmond. A group of us went there last Friday for Date Night. Ambiance is great! Service is above excellent and the good! The BBQ is exceptional! I had their brisket and I could have ordered more, it was so delicious! Finger licking good! Will be going back. read more

This is a typical every day, barbecue, nothing special, just made fit to meet the masses. I will say their beans are not to my liking. Unless you like mush with pineapples in it. Beware the burnt ends have teriyaki sauce, why I don't know, but that's the way they make them and it kind of ruined it for me. Not that it was terrible, I just wasn't going to an Asian restaurant I was going to a barbecue joint. All in all it's fair. read more

I am the safety supervisor of a local company, and we recently had a company lunch and got the food at Baldy's. EVERYONE RAVED!! It was fantastic! If I had one caveat, it would be that as I was carrying out all that food to my car, I asked for help carrying it and was told, "Okay, sure", but didn't get any help. Not that big of a deal, but a tad disappointing, for $800. It was a LOT of food. There was no review on the ambiance since we got it to go. read more

It's hit and miss some days and I don't know really what to say because the one in Bend seems to be spot on every time with the same consistency in the barbecue. Some days, the Redmond one is really good but other days it seems like it's a bit dry and I don't know if it was leftovers from the day before and reheated. The atmosphere is great all the time that hasn't changed read more

I have eaten here many times and almost always pleased with the food. Their smoked wings are great and I love the Cat's Meow bbq sauce. The pulled pork is also very good and being born in the South, who wouldn't love their fried okra. We'll be coming back! read more

Ordered delivery via DD. Arrived on time. Had the pork rib and tri-tip combo. Both were disappointingly dry, especially the pork ribs which reminded me of jerky. Au gratin potatoes were made from what I suspect are frozen potatoes meant for hash browns. My son liked his pulled chicken sandwich. For all you reflexive salt sprinklers: taste before you salt! read more

Love the food here. Best bbq in bend. Been coming here for years. Never had a bad meal. read more

Maybe I had too high expectations for a birthday dinner, but I was disappointed in our return here a year later. I got the brisket mac again and it had plenty of pieces but 2/3 were way too dry. The mac was on the watery side and pretty flavorless. No one wore masks, but their outdoor seating with the fire is very nice. My partner thought the french dip was pretty good, though. read more

The ribs are very good. However, be aware that if you get takeout, they always, always forget the drinks and you have to remind them.

1. Probably the worst BBQ I've ever had 2. My kids wouldn't even eat the Mac and cheese So I tasted it. Pasta was cooked but it was otherwise tasteless. 3. Not a single soul was wearing a mask. No cooks, no wait staff, no customers. We ordered takeout for our first Baldy's experience. We will not be back. 4. Brisket is not the word I'd give to what we ordered. Overcooked, awful. Not sure where to go for BBQ here in Redmond, but this is NOT the place. read more

We think that we have found our go to BBQ restaurant in Redmond. We ordered: Pulled Pork Sandwich Memphis-style on Texas Toast with Mac & Cheese; Brisket Sandwich Memphis-style on a bun with onion rings; and half rack Baby-back Ribs with beans and garlic bread. Baby-back Ribs were very good. Normally, we take some home; but, they were so good that we ate all of them. Garlic bread received a mixed review mostly because it was garlic flavored Texas Toast and not what we think of as garlic bread. Pulled Pork Sandwich was good, especially when eaten with house spicy BBQ sauce. Memphis-style added flavorful coleslaw to the sandwiches. Using Texas Toast in place of a bun is a nice touch. Mac & Cheese received low marks from everyone at the table, too dry. I really liked the Brisket Sandwich. The brisket had a nice bark and full of flavor. I tried it with no sauce, regular sauce, and spicy sauce. It was very good all three ways. Onion rings were average, not crispy and a bit oily. The chipotle-ranch dipping sauce had a nice bite to it. I cannot wait for a nice warm evening to enjoy BBQ on the patio with friends. read more

The best ribs you can find this side of the Mississippi River highly recommend it! The baked beans are delicious. The cornbread incredible they offered magnificent plethora of sauces... I am a bit of a food snob and very particular all I can say is should you be coming through Redmond? You will be missing out if you don't enjoy all these ribs baked beans cornbread basically everything on the menu. Enjoy.!! read more

Servers were very nice and accommodating. The food was not good in my opinion. The corn on the cob had an odd texture, maybe overcooked then microwaved but was cold when we received it. The pulled pork was also semi cold and did not taste fresh. The corn bread was a bit dry. Not a great experience. read more

What an incredible spot! Super friendly staff and seriously delicious food. Everything tasted very fresh and full of flavor - we will definitely be back next time we're in town. I couldn't believe how good the smoked wings were, and the buffalo sauce had a nice kick, too. The side of okra was super generously portioned and would have easily fed more than just the two of us (though we were happy to finish it ). read more

Dinner here was good. The sides and pulled chicken sandwich was delicious. The fried okra and smothered fries were excellent. The disappointment was that the brisket was fatty so our friends didn't enjoy their meal as much. Our waiter was great too. I was not thrilled about the woman working at the bar, etc. with her mask under her nose the entire time we were there. That said, we will go back again for sure. read more

Disgusting!! how do you miss bbq?? ribs were nasty, hardly any meat. the pulled pork was nasty also, even the sauce was store brought

Great fast service and comfortable atmosphere. The food was very good, generous portions. read more

Baldys BBQ - Brisket platter - Barbeque Near Me - Redmond, Oregon

We go into Baldy's here in Bend to try it out and ask to get an order to go (restaurant is almost completely empty), the front hostess Erin had an attitude and was saying things under her breath. Then the older blonde lady with septum told us "the owner is a dick!" Opened our food and the sauces are spilt everywhere and my burnt food was thrown into a to go container with some sauce on it. I am a restaurant manager and if people are coming in to spend money on food at your restaurant, you need to make them want to come back, not lose them and future customers. read more

So disappointing! Was it because it was Sunday night and the meat was cooked Friday? Dry tasteless cornbread, DRY 1/2 chicken that may have been undercooked.Beans were meh so-so. Worst of all we're the $8 onion rings. Minimally dipped, slimy, greasy and just shitty. I tried to crisp them up in the air fryer but that didn't help. We won't order again. read more
