Ok the food was 5 star. As always. We were party of 9 as we were treating our family before they had to go back to Seattle. So maybe the server thought she was getting an auto gratuity. Lol cost her 20 dollars at the minimum But the service was terrible. Empty drinks, no plates when corn bread was FINALLY brought to table Had to ask a manager for them but he did not follow up on service. First time in 6 visits to this restaurant that a manager has not approached our table to ask about our experience. No offer for alcoholic drink refills. Really this was a party Waited for everything we asked for. The food was not good enough to pay $300 for a meal and have terrible service. I was completely embarrassed I recommended this restaurant to my family for a celebration dinner read more

Late yesterday afternoon my boyfriend and I decided we had a hankering for BBQ, so.we decided to try Bobby Q. The place looked terrific on the inside and the aroma of the meat wasc intoxicating. Our lovely server was named Ashland. Besides being pretty and delightful, she was very knowledgeable about the menu. We had the Q-rolls (brisket with a pastry wrap) for an appetizer. OMG! I've never experienced anything so delicious! We ended up choosing baby back ribs and the meat just fell off the bone and was so tender and juicy... The corn bread was out of this world! Ashland wanted to give us a sample of what the brisket tasted like so she brought us three or four slices because I was determined to have brisket on my next visit. Let's just say my former mother-in-law used to make the best brisket on the planet. Not anymore! The service was superb and the food was amazing! At the end of the meal we had four mini donuts to take home with us. The female manager came by our table and asked us how our meal was and we raved about it plus the service. As we left the hostesses thanked us for coming. An hour after we got home we decided to try the donuts. All I can tell you is I haven't stopped thinking about that meal since. It wasn't just about having a meal out, it was a dining experience... A lot of other restaurants could learn from them. read more

I really enjoyed a special night out with Husband, we loved the theme of the restaurant, our waiter Garrett was fantastic, easy going, very knowledgeable of the menu, and was very attentive. The food was fantastic! I ordered the Prime Rib, I later laughed about the fact that I came to a BBQ house and order Prime Rib! I was blown away! I asked to have it seared on both sides and it was fantastic. I loved the sides. Husband ordered the 2 Rib dish, Beef and pork ribs, they were so Yummy. And the Corn bread, Little disks of heaven. We also ordered the artichoke, spinach, and chipotle cheese dip, WOW, too good for words. In the end we were handed a little bag of LOVE, wee doughnuts. The only thing I have to say negative, it is a bit pricy. We will be going back again. read more

We recently had our company's Christmas party here. They had a whole patio reserved for us. It was private and they had heaters to keep us plenty warm. In fact, we had to ask them to turn a couple off. They had two servers assigned to us who were very attentive and mostly present. The food was delicious!!! Best cornbread I have ever had and the barbecued meat was very tasty. We had a great time and everything was very reasonably priced. Will definitely consider for future parties and date nights! :) read more

This is our 5th time here...never disappoints! Highly recommend the pulled pork sandwich! Also if you get Kelly as your wait person it is definitely a bonus! read more

Absolutely awesome place great service and top notch food would definitely be worth a visit

If there was a way for me to give this location/business 10 stars, that still wouldn't be enough. Over all my experience here was absolutely phenomenal, hands down the best service and food I've had in not only this area, but perhaps throughout the country (on my many travels). Not only was the food amazing, the service was 2nd to none, our server (Craig) was awesome, with the perfect amount of attention and distance provided during the meal. Also the rest of the staff were so pleasant, providing a totally organic environment upon entrance and departure. My wife and I opted for the the "whole hog", and of course most of that came home with us, but throughout the meal I don't think one time our drinks got completely empty. I even made a joke to my wife during the meal, "the only thing that could possibly make this experience better was if the desert was free". Would you not believe, they brought us a bag of doughnuts at the end of the meal (and I was just joking). If I absolutely had to find 1 negative (and I really mean) had to, I would say the only thing that they didn't do was box the meal up at the end. At this price point, it wouldn't be outrageous to think that would be a service offered. But again that's me being extremely picky. I definitely left there with a smile (and full belly)! read more

Came Christmas Eve, waitress was VERY rude. Rolled her eyes a few times. Sorry you had to work but should have been nice, we left a good tip considering... read more

First time here and very pleasantly surprised. Excellent atmosphere and great service. Absolutely loved our 2 meat plate with brisket and ribs. Cornbread and donuts for dessert were very satisfying. Would definitely go again. read more

I have been to Bobbys twice and both times I received great food and ex service. Today my service person was Ashlynn. She was outstanding. She is truly an asset to the Bobby Q organization. I will return and I will ask for Ashlynn. read more

Got skipped over twice by the hostess while extremely not busy. Very piss poor excuse for hospitality at this place. The food was meh.

Love everything on their menu, always great customer service! Love sitting on the patio.

My hubby and I went to Bobby Q on Saturday afternoonish. We were seated by the patio doors that were opened to the outside. After we placed our drink order we asked to switch tables as it was cold outside. Luckily, we were able to keep our server, Andrew. He was excellent!! I asked him if the rub they used was spicy. He didn't think so but he brought me a sample of the ribs... I was sold!!! From the first bite of the cornbread to the last bite of donut everything was first rate. The baby back and beef ribs were mouth watering. The beef brisket had excellent flavor. The loaded baked potato was LOADED, the barbecue corn... let's just say I wanted more!! We had enough for left overs and they were a good a second time around. The only complaint that I have is if you are seating people on a bench seat make sure it is anchored otherwise it slips around. read more

Amazing food and amazing people. They make you feel like family. They are so catering and thoughtful. You can not go wrong with anything on the menu. Highly recommended and we will be back in the future! read more

This is the best bbq in the Mesa/Gilbert area. I am going back again! Their FF are so good! The ambiance is a very relaxed atmosphere.

Awesome food, will definitely be back! The cornbread is delicious, the brisket baked potato is to die for! The plates are very generous in size. read more

Went there for first time last night. Was not crowded great atmosphere. Service was Good Food was as good as I have had in area Liked all the Beer selection. Menu has large selection of food so I rate it high on my list of places to take out of town guests. Prices seem little high but when you enjoy the food and experience I guess you get what you pay for. Thanks Bobby Q read more

I've been to Bobby-Q maybe 5 or 6 times since they opened in Phoenix and it's always been an excellent experience. The food is great, the service is very good, and it's a very comfortable atmosphere. If you go during peak times, there may be a significant wait time and I don't remember if they take reservations or call-aheads. If you want Prime Rib, try to go earlier because they might run out. Cocktails aren't really my thing, but they do have a full bar. I've only been to the Mesa location once for a late lunch, but the food was just as good as the original Phoenix location. If you want really good BBQ with a more upscale atmosphere, Bobby-Q is the place to go. read more

We finally found a really good BBQ place! Everything was delicious. Our waiter was awesome! Cornbread was so good. Ribs and brisket are delicious! Great sides. Mini donuts at the end were yummy! Will be back! read more

Went here tonight with my gf before a bowling date. This is absolutely the best barbecue in town. Compared to barbecue I used to get in Texas this is probably the most authentic smoked Barbecue I have ever tasted. We had a 15 minute wait for our table on a Friday night, not bad and well worth the wait. There were open seats at the bar, so I decide to get a beer while we waited. They have a huge local and craft beer tap selection! They definitely know what's up in the beer scene. I love the design of the place, it's super clean and there is a ton of detail and effort put into the decorations. I dig industrial appliances so old cast pipes and belt driven ceiling fans are my thing, I get huge kick out of. The designers did not overlook a single square inch of the place when putting it together. Food was of course amazing and wait service was top notch. Not one thing I could even try to complain about. So yeah perfect Restaraunt, perfect experience and that's not exaggerating. read more

Super good BBQ food and nice atmosphere. Hands down best brisket I've ever had and the Q-lada drink is delish!

Pros: The BBQ was very good. The service was good. Cons: and reason I didn't give it 5 stars because the cornbread was super greasy but the fries were amazing. Maybe it deserves 5 stars. I had concerns about the peanut oil they use but learned after that it is not an allergen so that's pretty great. I will say it's the best BBQ I've had in PHX. read more

Being from KC I'm a bit of a BBQ snob. I don't try to be, but I am. I've been underwhelmed my 6 yrs here. With that being said, this is my favorite BBQ in AZ. Spicy sauce, smoked chicken wings, sausage & brisket were really good. We are coming back for smoked prime rib. Staff was friendly & environment was amazing. Brandon was knowledgeable & took great care of us. Thank you & we'll be back soon. read more

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE BOBBY Q! My boyfriend and I go here almost every date night! The vibe and decor inside is almost like a night club mixed with a 5 Star restaurant with the lit up bar and the cool seating areas. The food is amazing and never fails to disappoint! read more

This was my first time here, and we waited only 5 minutes without getting attended and when they attended us they felt that they made us wait too long and they took the initiative and gave us a free appetizer, and the food suggestions of the waiter and the manager were great, their service is really good and the food was amazing. Best BBQ I've had in the PHX area. read more

The food is absolutely amazing, I love this place, the steaks are fantastic. I would eat here every day if I could afford it

Do not miss out on this BBQ while in Mesa. Service was stellar / Rebecca was knowledgeable and offered many suggestions making our meal unforgettable. Brisket / Ribs / Sausage Combo meal was enough for two with plenty to share later. The cornbread and mini-donuts are a nice touch when you just don't have enough room left for dessert! Thanks again to Rebecca read more

A true gem. do not sit in bar area to dine......way too hot Food is awesome. I personally like the egg roll things for appetizer. This last time there, i shared the "HOG HEAVEN" with my sister and it was enough food for a family of 4 adults..........Prime brisket (suggest requesting lean) Their baby back ribs are top shelf, and i like their sausage also. some banana dessert is supposed to be great too (I"m not a sweets person) read more

I will start by saying the food was great! That said, food quality alone doesn't create a five star experience, what made this a perfect experience was service. We had a big group (11 adults) on a Saturday night for a birthday celebration and most places wouldn't take a reservation, Bobby-Qs did. Once we were there our server was awesome and the manager, at least that is my assumption, stopped by to check on us multiple times. An entree salad was a little late coming to the table so the manager preemptively apologized, removed it from the bill, AND offered a dessert for the inconvenience. The free donuts are a great treat to eat and/or bring home to the kids. read more

This place is amazing. The food is just as good as the service, and the doughnuts were amazing. My daughter loved them.

Smelt good but taste bland. Spent $46 bucks on food that gave me diarrhea.. the stray cats in my apts didn't even want the leftovers I sat outside in the trash. read more

Really good bbq. The brisket is one the the best and surprisingly the best side dish I've had in a while is their Brussels sprouts. Everywhere added bacon, but they cook theirs so well it was amazing. Staff is friendly and it is an enjoyable ace to eat. I just cannot day enough on how good they Brussel sprouts are. read more

Always great food, good service, fun! Sunday Family Feast is the bomb! From a Big Blue Van, zucchini appetizers to the brisket that melts in your mouth. Oh did i mention the best corn bread and warm cinnamon doughnuts. read more

Bobby Q - Mesa - New American Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Great decor, awesome menu. The brisket was very tender with great side options. The best part of all was starting with corn bread and MINI DOUGHNUTS aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh yes read more

I have to say, this place made for a great date spot. Amazing food all the way around. The brisket melts in your mouth. The staff were beyond friendly, have honest opinions on the food, and accomendated a special request. Our drink glasses were never empty for more than 2 minutes. Remember, real barbeque is not cheap. With that said, the prices are excellent. read more

We finally tried this place on Father's day. After a 80 minute wait. My husband ordered Brisket sandwich and I ordered the loaded baked potato with brisket. The meat was extremely fatty I couldn't really eat it. My husband ate his dinner but honstley save your money go to Rudy's in chandler the quality of the food is way better. read more

Never ate here before. Heard it was good. Arrived just before 1pm. We were seated and waited. We waited for anyone to come take our drink order and nothing. We sat long enough we knew what we were going to order. Saw enough staff walking back and forth around us. Finally we just left. Never going back again. I'll stick to Rudy's bbq and Dickie's. read more

Not the best bbq restaurant I've been had. Beef ribs were undercooked and I didn't taste no Smokey flavor. Same with chicken. Pork rib rub was too salty which ruined the Smokey flavor. They've could've done a better job with the mac n cheese. read more
