This has become a favorite place to come too. Previously Bobby Gee's, now Bobby Q's. I had the Smokehouse Burger which is the fresh ground beef, cheddar cheese, bacon, crispy onions, BBQ sauce, and secret sauce. I ordered the shoestring fries as my side. Food was delicious and mouth watering. The ground beef was juicy and very tasty. The portions are very filling. The serve you moist, fresh cornbread and butter while you wait for your meal. Food is truly outstanding. The service was wonderful! I do suggest you make a reservation for this place via Yelp. No waiting if you do make one. Our waiter was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, food and how the is prepared. Attentive service through out your meal. The cost is not too bad on price considering what you get in my opinion. The smokehouse burger was $15.00. The desserts run at $8.00. Again, you do get what you pay for here. I highly recommend this place! read more

Best BBQ in Mesa! We bring out of town family here. They also have nice twists to classic drinks.

The service was great. Kelly was our server & she was smiling, caring & fun. There were 5 of us & the place was packed on a Saturday night. The food was awesome. I had the ribs (pork) I got the full rack & brought most of it home because it was a huge portion. I got 4 more dinners out of it!!! read more

Visited this place as I'm in that area quite often and watched it getting remodeled from RTOsullivans to it's new identity. Set a reservation for 7pm on a Friday night. We got there about 20 mins early but were accommodated with a table within 5 minutes. First impression was fair, certainly smells good. Fairly large crowd was inside and it's pretty dang noisy. Ambiance was ok and the chairs were comfortable enough. You're greeted by a number of people. Our server, Michelle, was outstanding. I have a lot if hospitality experience and noticed trainers and at least 3 management members working. It felt as though the wait staff are being trained by professionals. Michelle was great! She handled everything I threw at her well and with a smile. My first request was a glass of wine. It came quickly. As i tilted the glass to drink I noticed a strong odor like a chemical cleaner. I did indeed swallow a bit before I could stop. One of the wait staff stopped by with water for us and I asked him to smell it. My girlfriend smelled it also and we all agreed somehow the glass had not been properly cleaned and rinsed. It was removed and a fresh glass and new wine brought out. I was concerned that i might get sick however so far so good. One reason this place didn't get 4 1/2 or 5 stars is the fact we were charged for the wine. If you had smelled that glass, comping it would be logical. We ordered the Calamari appetizer. I've never seen such large pieces of Calamari and we both felt it was much better than most we'd had. It's called 'Calamari steak' and each piece was somewhat large. Coated in a Panko like crumb mix with good cocktail and decent tartar sauce. It was very good. We shared a combo at $36 for prine rib and jumbo shrimp. I don't recall what the shrimp is called (kind of like calamacchi or some such name) the prime rib was smoked. It didn't have an overwhelming smoke flavor like some other places have. It was a bit overdone for medium rare and dry. But flavor was very good and the rub on it was good also. The shrimp were great! I'll have to go back to get that name again, but similar to a pesto sauce and grilled over a wood fire. Sides were a baked potato (hard to ruin that, it was good), roasted corn (way overcooked and being so it almost tasted like it came out of a can), and grilled vegetables that were good. Veges had bell peppers, red onion, squash, and zucchini then grilled over the wood grill. Very tasty. Overall the food is very good, and service was outstanding. If i could rate service separately I would give a big 5. Prices are on the high end. Many of the drinks were lower than most at $2 for ice tea to $2.50 for soda. We were pleased overall, would recommend to friends, and will go back. I doubt the prices will get adjusted down and that is another reason for not getting 5 stars. read more

Another good evening of roast chicken and Mac n cheese. The brisket sandwich is not the best choice for kids but with generous portions there is plenty for everyone to share and try several options. read more

Savannah our waitress killed it! I haven't even tried the food yet, just sat down and I already LOVE THIS PLACE! Right when you walk in you get hit with a beautiful aroma of bbq. Best in Mesa. God bless America! read more

Really good hot, fresh food, I love the corn, the fried zucchini, the salads, I am not much of a drinker but they have some of the fanciest cutest tasty drinks ever, like for example one of their drinks served in a pineapple. They have free hot freshly made donuts for dessert, their bread is also really good. My favourite thing though is their apple cobbler, best I EVER had! read more

Food, service and ambience were great. Our server Ciara was very helpful with suggestions. The manager came over to help me with my gluten-free needs. We had the spin-dip (veggies instead of bread for me). It was probably my favorite part of my meal besides my amazing drink: the Q-lada (pina colada + strawberry purée rimmed with toasted coconut). I had brisket and hubby had the ribeye. Both were good. Hubby loved the cornbread but I couldn't try it. Same for the dessert donuts. Nice added touch. Now that it's cooling off, will probably sit on the patio next time (lots if TVs to catch the game). read more

We have been here several times and enjoy everything from the cornbread to their awesome ribs. This is one place that rarely disappoints and will go out of their way to make it right. Definitely one of our favorites go to places. Highly recommend a reservation on the weekends, popular place that gets busy. read more

The best Bbq ever!! The smoked prime rib is the best. The bag of donut balls are a sweet surprise for you.. read more

As I continue to visit the Phoenix area, I still can't figure out what food is unique to this area. This trip it looks like barbecue is the new rage here. I came to this place as it was top rated. The meal was ok, I had the pork and brisket. Brisket was well trimmed for those who think brisket should have no fat. All in all it was just ok, definitely not cattle belt quality, but passable. Restaurant was clean, service was good, nice atmosphere too. read more

Poor service. Waited an hour just to place an order. Very difficult to locate the waiter for any additional appetizers, drinks, salt and pepper, to go boxes. Food quality was not where it should be for the prices being charged. It was my first and last time dining with them. read more

Our waitress Ana was so friendly and helpful! Great service. Food is a little pricey but very tasty.

Wow! So good! We've eaten at the restaurant and have gotten a pick up order.. both times great food. Service was good in-house and boy is this place busy! They did accept a reservation though on a Wednesday night for four which was good because I was pregnant and didn't want to wait for a table. Good amount of variety on the menu- there's something for everyone! I love the warm corn bread (which you also get with take out) AND the donuts are fresh and you can't get enough of! My husband loves all of the meats and the steak sandwich and hamburger were also very good. Good BBQ sauce too! We will def be making this a regular stop .. it can be a bit pricey.. but I guess it is worth it for the quality read more

4/26/18: Updated review Finally went back and was so expecting the same wonderful food. We were sadly disappointed. We visited at around 11:30am on a Sunday, shortly after opening. 1. Waitress came to take our order. I guess she thought we were not ready and walked away mid-conversation without saying she would be right back. My boyfriend was talking to her with his head int he menu. When he looked up, she was gone. 2. Food was subpar. Coleslaw had no flavor (and I remember this being delicious the last time.) All I could taste were the pecans. It was nice and crunchy, not doused in dressing, but absolutely flavorless. Ribs were not falling off the bone like normal and had a weird flavor. At first we thought it was the smoke, but soon realized it tasted like burnt plastic. Maybe from the oven? Pulled pork was ok, nothing special. Cornbread was probably the best part of the meal. Kind of sad to go out and eat Sunday lunch for $40 + tip and be highly disappointed. Probably wouldn't go back, not worth the money for less than mediocre food. 4/2017 Delish! Our family dined here on a Friday night. We had driven by on the freeway and wanted to check it out. The building and the decor are really fantastic. Loved all the little details for industrial touches in the restaurant. There was a bit of a wait. My husband and I grabbed a beer and sat at the front entrance, which apparently we walked in through the take-out entrance. Someone escorted us to the front and got us a beeper. We watched the machine make fresh donuts, which you get with your bill as a dessert on the way out. They were fresh, hot, and delicious. But, I'm getting ahead of myself.... Dinner was superb. Truly good BBQ. We've been going to Joe's for years and wanted to try something new. I had a pulled pork sandwich, my husband ordered a meat plate (pulled pork and brisket), and my son order kids ribs. The flavor was good and we were impressed. Kids ribs were a little on the fatty side, so my son made me pick the meat off and separate the fat. We would definitely go back. It's not as casual as Joe's, where you eat at picnic tables. Definitely for a nice night out, and you will be spending $$$ more for the nice night out. We sat outside on the patio and enjoyed being out there as the weather was beautiful. Some of the seating is close to other diners. It didn't bother us, but I wouldn't want to be on a date and dining right next to strangers. With kids. Waitress was awesome too. Was able to answer all of our questions and gave wonderful service, especially on a busy night. I think she even mentioned she was working a long, 12 hour shift. Great BBQ Beautiful restaurant Delish donuts Expect to pay a little more for a meal out read more

Visiting from Cali. Bobby Qs has One of THE BEST Sirloin Steaks ever! The service was just as good. Hats off to the chef and to the servers. Way to go!! read more

Love Bobby-Q's! Hands down my favorite BBQ place. The food is great, friendly staff, and they've got a great looking restaurant. If you haven't been yet, check them out! read more

UPDATE: Manager Tracy called me and totally redeemed the situation. She offered a full refund and a credit for another meal so they could get it right. I appreciate you taking your time and showing concern, thank you Tracy! That was the absolute worst service I have ever received. We sat down at 8:10 and had to ask 4 times for our salad and didn't get our dinner until 9:10. Never received bread that was included in the meal. Never was offered the complimentary donuts. Only received one refill the whole time and I had to ask for that, empty glasses throughout the meal. The $22 8oz sirloin was absolute junk, thin and dry and I guarantee was not 8oz. I talked to a manager and let them know everything and they said sorry and the turned to take a photo for another guest that interrupted us to ask. I want my $70 back! read more

Best BBQ full stop!! Happy hour pitchers are great! Looks kinda upscale but really down to earth staff. read more

Great place. Beautiful atmosphere but very busy. That's because the food is great and the service is on top of things. I don't have anything else to add that hasn't already been said by many other positive reviewers. We will keep coming back, we are big fans of BobbyQ read more

This place is great! On weekends its superrr full so you do have to wait a little while to be seated. You can chill at the bar tho! The food is really good, a bit pricey for my liking. I can get the same piece of stake across the street (texas road house)for half the price. Last time my friend and I shared a three meat combo and paid less then 20 each. So if you share its not that pricey! At the end they give you corn bread and it is delicious! I have been here 3 times since it opened and Ive really enjoyed it! read more

The worst bbq I have EVER tasted. My husband wanted to try something different for his birthday...he got it! The brisket was laced with fat and mushy, the sausage was also mushy and plain disgusting. The ribs had too much fat on them. The JUMBO loaded baked potato was a barely medium sized potato (that part was fine with me) with no moisture (probably over baked) and fat laced brisket and very little fixing. My son says the hamburger was just ok. The q-rolls (appetizer) were good but could be better if they drained them better after frying. $82 down the drain. I regretted not saying anything to the manager when he visited our table. I'm so not happy!!!! read more

Great food and service! We ate here for easter and everything was absolutely wonderful. Will definitely be back!

Great and awesome find for my birthday. Super appetizers and cornbread and family platter enough for three or four absolutely delish! Fair price and lots of food. Very friendly staff- looking forward to going back. read more

They have the best ribs and mac and cheese. Pricey but worth it. The brisket is juicy too.

Good food! We ordered a full slab of ribs with Mac and cheese , loaded bake potato and large Cesar salad!

The service was great!! The food was okay. Got early bird special but was charged regular price because we didn't say" early bird." We were given that menu and ordered during that time!! Why do we have to say "early bird."Even pointed out the items we wanted on the early bird menu when we ordered. One and done. Not worth the money I'll stick with Texas road house. First time going there . so now we know but we won't go back read more

My personal favorite for BBQ and one of my favorite restaurants period. Never had a bad experience! Q' rolls are a great appetizer and meat is tender and perfectly cooked read more

It's okay. There are better BBQ places. It's pricey for the quality of what you get and it's not really worth it.

We arrived at Bobby Q with a reservation and was seated promptly by a cheery hostess. The restaurant was somewhat empty. Our waitress arrived right away and took our drink order . Drinks and cornbread came timely. Cornbread was excellent. We ordered the whole hog platter with baby back and St Louis ribs. Beef briscuit and pulled pork. Our sides were Mac & Cheese, Cole Slaw and roasted corn. The platter arrived in the right amount of time. Sides were in small containers . Rather small for the price. They were all tasty except the roasted corn. The corn was a mishmash of tiny cobbettes and loose corn. It didn't look appetizing. The ribs were both over cooked and had small pieces of bone it seemed like in every other bite. If this were the first time I ever ate ribs,I would be turned off for live. Beef brisquet and pulled pork were very good. My overall opinion of Bobby Q is that the service and ambiance was good. The food quality for the price was lacking. Next time I would order the briscuit or pork platter. Stay away from the ribs . read more

we went to Bobby Qs with our family that was in town and it was such a great experience. Jesus was our server and he explained everything and really made the experience one of a kind. If your going to splurge this is the place to do it. read more

Rustic atmosphere, food was good . Enjoyed the space we could spend as a family! Loved the sweet tea and cornbread.

I gave it four stars because the atmosphere is pretty darn cool you gotta cheap out the patio areas and the laid back seating area.food was alright not bad but not GREAT. We got the three meat combo barbecue nothing to Brag about. I do really like the touch of the homemade donuts that you get with your check. Service was great and it was very clean. read more

This is the best BBQ I've ever had in my life including the BBQ I make. I had the two meat plate brisket and St Louis ribs with a loaded baked potato and mac & cheese. Cornbread was also brought out. We also tried their smoked corn and Q rolls. Everything was AMAZING, Smokey and delicious. Mac and cheese coated my mouth like the old school mac did growing up. I wanted to cry with joy while eating this meal. They even gave us free donuts when we left after we were in a food coma. Ask for an extra side of BBQ sauce as they'll give you options. Service was great and this is now my last meal on earth request. Where is the 10 star button?! Thank you will be back numerous times as this place does it right. read more

Shame on you Bobby Q - Mesa! We placed an order tonight for takeout (in your ad you mention curbside) and when we arrived there is a massive line out the door with only a small percentage of people practicing any kind of social distancing at all. A quick glance outside will verify this. It is literally impossible not to brush past people to even get inside your door. We placed our order just after 5:10 and got there at 5:50. We have tried calling more than 5x over the course of the last 20 minutes from your parking lot to inquire about curbside or switch it to delivery but no one is answering the phones. I am literally trying to come up with an alternative solution to pay you money and get our food. If you are going to be open during these times, at least practice some common sense. Actually create some rules for takeout or actually offer curbside. We like your food and have been loyal customers but you just lost me for good and honestly, there is no reason for it. Your establishment is literally going against everything that our state has asked us to do during this pandemic. Nice job! read more

This place is great!! The loaded baked potato is amazing! Our server Garret really knew his stuff and you can tell he enjoys his job. Answered all of our questions for being first timers with easy and professionalism. Always had a smile on his face and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit! We will be back! Ps, Deducted one star for the over priced drinks, but that won't keep us from coming back! read more
