    The Ribs are as tough as a boot. Hostess wasn't the nicest either. Peach cobbler was good.

    What I liked. Really friendly customer service. Love the vintage photos on the wall. The back porch and outside dinning is really, really nice. The Mac and cheese, I thought was pretty good. It's not the gooey runny Mac like at a lot of bbq places. What I didn't care for as much: The smoked ham was just ok. The pork ribs were very dry, I didn't finish them. Others at the table liked the brisket and pulled pork although I didn't finish not try it. Based on my meal alone. Would I come back. Probably not, but I would tag along with the group.

    Food and service was good. No chew on the brisket but good flavor. Sauce was ok. Something felt missing like salt or a pop of flavor. Not great but good enough to go back

    My husband, our little girl dog and I decided to Bedlam BAR-B-Q for an early dinner, a little before 5 pm, this past Tuesday. When we walked in, we were greeted by the employee behind the register. The employee behind the counter told us that the outdoor seating is dog friendly. After looking over the menu board, we ended up ordering: Loaded Baked Potato, $12 prior to tax- The loaded baked potato comes with your choice of meat, I ended up picking chicken and requested that the butter, sour cream and chives be placed on the side. I also was given a free side of fresh sliced onions, a pickle spear and pepper as well. The potato already had the cheese on the potato but was only semi melted. Honestly, I was a bit disappointed with the temperature of my potato and wished it was served hot, especially since the cheese wasn't fully melted. The amount of chicken on this loaded baked potato was quite generous and was nice and tender. I shared my potato with my husband and a small amount with my little girl (just the potato part). Brisket Combo Plate, $22 prior to tax- This plate comes with 2 sides, in which my husband picked collared greens and tabouli salad. My husband always likes to choose collards greens at a barbecue place if it is on the menu. He liked it and I thought it was prepared well, not too sour and the vegetables were soft and tender. I don't normally like tabouli salad because people who prepare it usually use too much lemon juice, making it very sour. This salad though was actually just fine, but my husband didn't like it (honestly, he only picked it because he wanted to add more fiber to his meal). The brisket was tender and good but we have had better. His meal also came with onions, a pickle spear and pepper. He also had a thick slice of white bread that was toasted. -------------------------------- (Total= $36.93 after tax, prior to tip) I was actually surprised that our food was brought out about 10 minutes after we had ordered. Also the outdoor seating area is very nice. Parts of the outdoor seating is covered as well if you happen to come out here on a sunny day. I was also surprised that this restaurant only had 1 unisex restroom. The restroom had ran out of toilet paper when I had happened to use it (and believe it or not, I actually did have toilet paper in my pocket. Ever since we have been on our trip, my nose has been running so much because of how windy and dusty it has been since we have arrived. So I have been keeping toilet paper in my pocket to blow my nose... TMI, I know). But it did have soap (no paper towels since there was a hand dryer). Service was friendly and appreciated that the employee who took our order had come out later on to check out up on us if we needed anything. Overall, we weren't wowed by the food and would be open to trying another barbecue joint in OKC.

    My favorite BBQ restaurant in town! Ribs are meaty and hardly any fat, if any at all, and smoked just right...bite off the bone tender!! Their fries are crispy and the corn on the cob is always perfect! Inside is a little dark, but plenty of seating and OU memorabilia! The patio out back is very nice when the temperature allows. The food is consistently cooked and high quality. They don't skimp on anything. I've been going there for years and look forward to many more years! You order at the front and the food is brought out to you. Service is excellent and staff very friendly. Drinks are self serve.

    One of the highest rated restaurants in Oklahoma City, this place was a must go to for my family and I during our first visit to Oklahoma City. We were visiting OKC Zoo on our first day in OKC on a Sunday, and after the zoo, we decided to go to Bedlam BAR-B-Q for some lunch. We arrived around 2:30, and luckily, the team at Bedlam Bar-B-Q had a lot of table seating open, as their restaurant closes at 3:00 P.M on a Sunday. The restaurant was decked out in decorations for the Holiday. There was a large festive Holiday tree inside the restaurant. Current Bedlam Bar-B-Q hours are the following MONDAY - THURSDAY 10:30 ~ 9:00 FRIDAY - SATURDAY 10:30 ~ 10:00 SUNDAY 11:00 ~ 3:00 The menu had a wide range of BBQ items from smoked chicken, hot links, ham, sausage, ribs, and so much more! We had to try a lot of their food out since we were only visiting OKC for the holidays. Order placed at the register! Bedlam Burger: (100% Angus Beef with Bedlam Seasoning) with sautéed onions, cheddar cheese, and curly fries. I opted to replace the curly fries with macaroni cheese instead! $13.00 [2 Meats] Pulled Pork & Ribs: Collard Greens, Okra, Texas Toast. Kids Cheeseburger (without the cheese). It was fun hanging out in the restaurant. The wait time was not long for the food, approximately 30 minutes. I had the Bedlam burger, and it was good! The beef patty was huge! The burger was cooked perfectly, not burnt, and it was seasoned wonderfully! It had a ton of flavor! I was not the biggest fan of mac n cheese though. It was spicy, but my husband liked it! My husband enjoyed the pulled pork. It had a lot of flavors; however, the BBQ ribs though didn't have much meat to them. It was really difficult for him to eat. His favorite part of the dish was the Okra! My daughter liked the hamburger and ate all of it! Food was good, but the ambiance is awesome! I would just come back to this restaurant again to hang out! It it a great place!

    2 meat combo with sides of coleslaw and corn on the cobb.

    I love this place! Unassuming from the outside, but interestingly the inside is decorated in old cowboy and OSU memorabilia. I had the 2 meat combo brisket and ribs with coleslaw and corn on the cobb sides. Corn on the Cobb was perfect! but the slaw was a little dry and should have a little more dressing. Brisket, amazing and delicious. Use a fork but I loved just pulling it apart with my fingers and savoring how good it was Ribs had a really thick bark to them but they too were delicious fall off the bone, but I only have one for my midnight snack. Service was exceptional with accommodating all my questions and needs. I highly recommend you try their food at least once

    Amazing food and great atmosphere! Very friendly at the front counter. Smoked ham, smoked chicken breast, green beans and baked sweet potato were perfect! So good didn't have time to take a picture!

    Curtis L.

    I honestly cannot praise this place enough and I truly think they're the best barbecue in the OKC metro. The smoked chicken was so perfect it literally fell apart in my mouth. The sweet potato was a delicious surprise as I had never ordered it before! The brisket is always wonderful and my personal favorite. Last but not least, that homemade Mac and cheese mmm I'm glad to see this place is always busy (but not so busy that you want to go somewhere else lol) whenever I arrive. The food is always hot & fresh and the staff is always lovely.

    Their sliced brisket is always moist and full of that wonderful, smoked flavor you expect. I also recommend their fried okra.
