    The service was fine but the bbq could use some help. It's nothing like down south mouth watering BBQ.

    Best BBQ in the area, especially in a small town. A little overpriced. Overall, good food and good customer service.

    This place has some great BBQ. Chicken was a little dry. But everything taste great. Coleslaw. And Mac and cheese are the best sides.

    Regardless of the location, the variety and quality of the brisket, ribs, and pulled pork is top notch.

We were the only ones in there except for an older couple that was finishing up eating. We ordered chopped brisket sandwich and pulled chicken sandwich. After we ordered someone came out and said they were out of chicken.....so my husband who isn't supposed to eat red meat had to settle for brisket. Once it came out the meat wasn't even warm! And the buns were soaked in grease. My husbands salad came out in a paper dixi bowl. Just extremely disappointed in the quality here. The other smokin joes definitely have this one beat in every single area. I can say we don't have any good comments and hope that someone in management sees this and helps these people do better. We have had better service a good in a fast food chain. Don't waste hard money on this location.

    They charged us $40 for 3 ribs a little bit of chicken and maybe enough brisket for a very tiny bun…read morethe fries were old he said it was because I came late whick it only took us 20 minutes I live outside town and those were not fresh they were hard so it's their fault not mine I will definitely start going to chicken Express for $10 more and it would feed 8 to 10 people what they gave me wasn't enough for 2 people the owner is lazy and doesn't want to make fresh food so I think everyone should over look his business all together anyone that doesn't care about what customers want if he doesn't want to make fresh he won't and that lazy anyway you look at it and you should thank ur. Customers for spending their hard earned money in your restaurant

    We were driving through Carnegie starving and sad that our food options seemed so bleak (Sonic or…read morePizza Hut). Then we spotted Backporch Smokehouse! Husband said that for a BBQ place to make it in rural Oklahoma, it has to be good. And he was right. The outside is very welcoming, cute bench and foliage around a nice patio in front. The inside is sparkling clean and simple. They do a good carry out business but we ate in. I deeply regret not bringing some carryout back with us, it was that good. Brisket and pork were juicy, full of good flavor, and delicious, portions were plentiful. Husband also ordered a hot link which was perfectly spiced. Our entrees came with a fresh piece of soft white bread which was perfect with the hot BBQ sauce. Our meals came with regular BBQ sauce but when I requested hot sauce, he brought some spicy BBQ out and it was fantastic. They also threw some sliced fresh onion on our meats. The guy who waited on us was one of the owners and he told us the sides were made from scratch so we had a few: Cole slaw (some of my favorite of all time), potato salad (in Oklahoma, they mash potato salad like mashed potatoes, it was mustardy, mashed, & tasty), pea salad (amazing!), Mac & cheese (yum!), and a baked potato with butter and some sort of house seasoning on it (fresh and delicious). We ate every single bite and loved it! Prices were extremely reasonable, we got a meat with 2 sides and bread for only $9.95 and it was a ton of food. This is a family owned place and you can tell they take a ton of well deserved pride in their food. Carnegie is a good 45 minutes from home but you bet we will be back! If you are in the area, STOP HERE!

    Picked up a friend in Yukon and headed to Ken's in Amber, OK. I had heard about Ken's for years…read moreand finally decided to give give it a go. We arrived at five. They open at 4:30 and there were just a few tables left. The venue is in an old vintage building so common across small town Oklahoma. It's definitely casual with a very relaxed atmosphere. There is no menu and the offerings are limited: prime rib, sirloin steak and ribs. There is a wonderful salad bar. The salad is cold, as are the plates. On the salad bar is fried Okra and brown beans. They also offer a complimentary rib for each diner. The rib was very good. I ordered the sirloin. It was cooked to order and was flavorful. Sirloin is not a cut I would order if given options. Wish they had filet, T-bone and ribeye on the menu. Jan ordered the prime rib. It was nice and she enjoyed it. Texas Toast is served with the meal. It was nice to do something different. We enjoyed the meal. The hospitality was exceptional. The service very good. The prices are moderate. They do not serve alcoholic beverages.

    I'm always searching for that hidden gem -- the kind of place you only hear about through the…read moregrapevine. Ken's Steak & Ribs in Amber, OK is exactly that place. From Oklahoma City it's less than an hour drive, and before long you know you've left city life behind. As the old saying goes, never judge a book by its cover -- and the same applies here. From the outside the building is pretty modest, but once you step inside you immediately get that cozy, homey feeling. Another unique feature: the restaurant is only open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 4:30-9:00 PM, and there are no menus. Your server simply tells you the options: * 8 oz or 12 oz Sirloin * Prime Rib * Rib Dinner * Chicken * Smoked Sausage * Salad Bar * Baked Potato, Sweet Potato, or Fries In my opinion, this is a classic approach -- keep the menu simple so the food and experience can shine. Based on reviews I had read on Facebook and Yelp, the advice was to arrive early or expect a line. Since this was our 20th anniversary dinner, we arrived about 30 minutes before opening and waited comfortably in the parking lot. Good move -- we were seated right when the doors opened at 4:30. The atmosphere inside is dimly lit and quaint, giving it a relaxed small-town steakhouse vibe. Our server Virginia greeted us quickly, took our drink order, and we both ordered the 12 oz sirloin with baked potatoes. The salad bar is simple but well done. One detail I loved: refrigerated salad plates -- in my opinion that's the only proper way to serve a side salad. The offerings included iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, onions, shredded carrots, cucumbers, chives, croutons, and dressings like blue cheese, French/Catalina, and ranch. They also offer fried okra and pinto beans, which adds a nice Oklahoma touch. Instead of rolls, each diner receives a barbecue rib to start the meal -- now that's a unique and delicious idea. Our steaks arrived shortly after. I ordered mine medium rare, my wife went with medium rare plus, and both were excellent. The first bite had that unmistakable mesquite flavor, and the seasoning was spot on. Honestly, we probably didn't need the 12 oz steaks -- neither of us finished them. Could I have? Sure. But why be miserable? The meal was outstanding and exactly what we were hoping for on a special night. The only small disappointment was that there are no dessert options, but that's hardly a deal breaker. Final thoughts: Ken's Steak & Ribs is absolutely worth the trip. It takes a little planning because of their limited hours, but if you're looking for a classic Oklahoma steakhouse experience, this place delivers. We'll definitely be back.
