Omg! If I could give 10 stars I would. The food was absolutely to die for and the service was incredible. A beautiful lady named Cheyenne waited on us and even with other people she was serving, she was so attentive. She made sure our drinks were always filled, she inquired about the food if it was good, made recommendations for entrees AND drinks. We drove from Tucson, braved a tire blowout on the freeway and it was STILL well worth the trip. I HIGHLY recommend Bobby q's for the wonderful people and the best BBQ that was worth driving from Tucson for. Shout out to our girl, Cheyenne for providing excellent service. Girl, your boss needs to give you a raise. read more

Came here for a meetup with some friends. Wow!! Let me tell you, starting off with the cornbread, which was delicious, then the beef, ribs, and Mac and cheese were all chefs kiss. Our server was great, and the vibe was so chill. The inside was clean with a really cool bar setup. If you're a barbecue fan, this place is definitely for you! read more

O.M.G. The perfect opportunity to go whole hog... First of all, I rarely care for the interior of most Phoenix restaurants, but this restaurant is magnificent. Comfortable, sorta on the dark side. Classy. As I was not driving today, I decided to try their smoked Old Fashioned. Excellent -- and the dark cherries they use are the perfect addition to the cocktail. (The glass is coated with smoke from a smoldering piece of pecan wood, and the cocktail was served with a cloud of smoke under a coaster covering the glass.) The pig sickles ( ribs) were the perfect chance to make a pig of myself. Had the two meat plate, pig sickles and barbecued pulled chicken, If you like corn, you must have the side of corn with your dinner. The barbecue beans were delicious. Our server did a magnificent job tending to our drinks, appetizer, and food orders -- despite being very busy (the place was packed! -- and seemed like she was in constant motion. Very nice individual who liked la Prices? It was expensive, but the best barbecue always is. Eating isn't cheap. It was well worth every dollar spent. All in all, it was a perfect dinner. The perfect parting gift: a small paper bag containing four small donuts, coated with cinnamon. Our bag didn't make it home... I think we've found the perfect place to bring our family and out-of-town guests for dinner. read more

I was skeptical at first but it was good, im not gonna lie. Now with their Mac and cheese they should just "stop it". Thanks all I'm gonna say. Otherwise this place and service is stellar. read more

Love Bobby Q! I only come every couple years or so but it's always so good. I usually do some chicken or the bbq chicken salad but today I indulged in the nachos. I got the lunch sized nacho as it was only 9.50 plus 3.50 for the pulled chicken. Sydney recommended it and it was a great choice. Tons of meat for that price and tons of food for the lunch sized portion. On top of that you get their amazing corn bread muffins and the cinnamon sugar mini donuts on the house. Tons of good food for the price and great service. The ambiance is a typical bbq joint but it's a big place and in good shape. Make sure you go if you haven't :) They have really good drink options too. Also, they cater and have some event space too. read more

Bobby Q - Lunch Nachos with Pulled Chicken - Barbeque Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

We order take out of the 1/2 rotisserie chicken, broccoli, smoked wings with celery and carrots. When we went to pick the order, we were told the order of wings consisted of 16, however, when we got back to our hotel and counted them, it was only 12. These wings had no smoke flavor on then, they likely were grilled but not smoked. There was no celery or carrots with them either. We were also missing an order of coleslaw. Overallx Overall, fair experience and not sure if we would go back. read more

I love this place. It is dog friendly and the service and food are so good. We had brisket tacos that were delicious. Mac n cheese with brisket was also very good. I had my first and second coconut margarita and they made it even more fun! Good music, covered patio. Perfect place to chill out. Our waiter was AC and our bartender was Tyler. read more

Sometimes the national hype of a place can lead you to believe a place isn't worth your time. I know most of us want that small mom and pop place support local and that's a great aspiration to have, keep supporting local and small business. Just don't forget about consistent great places either they need our support as well. Wife and I wanted to sneak out for a quick date night on HH and hadn't had BBQ in a while so I suggested Bobby Q's. Plenty of seating as this place is huge but especially in the bar area where happy hour runs to 6pm. Ordered a few drinks from Kat and a plate to split. The food was promptly served and the drinks were delicious. Portions were plenty to split and enjoy some time hanging out away from our busy schedules for about an hour with no rush from the staff. Perfectly seasoned and cooked prime rib delicious twice baked potato and broccoli. As always enjoy the small but the staples need us to support them as well otherwise they'll disappear and when there this good it's worth it. read more

I was excited to try Bobby Q with an average 4.5 star rating and 5k+ reviews. Four of us had lunch here on Friday and were able to take advantage of the lunch menu they offer on weekdays from 11-3. During lunch, they also offer the full dining menu. We started off with the famous Q rolls: the meat was salty but the "roll" wrapping was light and crispy. I liked it paired with the chipotle ranch which added a creamy kick and balanced it out. Bob's salad (small) was a good portion size and easily shareable. There was a generous amount of chopped chicken breast but it was dry. The rib tips were also dry, stringy and salty. Not a lot of meat on those. The St. Louis spare ribs (really meaty!) were a lot more moist, but were salty as well. Fries also super salty. The side of corn was ok and so was the pecan coleslaw. Very good, attentive and knowledgeable service though. We were educated on St Louis vs baby back ribs! The complimentary cornbread and mini donuts were the highlight for us. Yum! read more

My college baseball teammates and I are making it a tradition to do a reunion trip to Phoenix every year for Spring Training, and Bobby Q's is firmly a part of that tradition. Been here back to back years now and it has not disappointed one bit! We make a reservation in advance for our big party of 12-14 and the wait staff handles us exceptionally well. Big tables to accommodate all of us, efficient order taking and delivery, and always on top of their game with the complimentary goodies (cornbread, donuts for dessert, and two free brownies + ice cream for the two birthday boys)! And the restaurant ambiance is really great; a cross between a ranch house and an upscale restaurant, with sports games playing on all of the TV's above the bar. Always great vibes! - Two meat combo: Baby back ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender and the brisket just melts in your mouth. Both bursting with smoky goodness. And you can't go wrong with any of their sides: I got BBQ beans and mashed potatoes this time, but their Mac & cheese is also killer. - Cornbread: unlimited refills, some of the best cornbread I've had in my opinion. Very soft, buttery, and surprisingly light. read more

They advertise themselves as being the world's best bbq. I'm not sure how that happened or if it ever did. I love bbq and I have sampled bbq at a lot of places so I feel my opinion comes from experience. I realize that opinions can be subjective because of different tastebuds and preferences. The building is nice and there is ample parking. We were greeted as we walked in and seated almost as quickly. Our server was very nice and didn't hurry us while we perused the menu. Two of us ordered brisket sandwiches and one in our party ordered a pulled pork sandwich. The brisket for me was rather dry and the other person in our party who ordered thought his was more moist. The one sauce they provided wasn't to my liking. I found out later that my server should have offered another sauce option but failed to do so. So I ate a dry beef brisket sandwich with no sauce. Everyone agreed that it was average bbq and unanimously we agreed the prices were too high. With higher prices comes higher expectations for quality and or quantity. It was a nice place, very noisy, service was good, food was average and prices were high. I have eaten at 5 bbq restaurants in the Phoenix metro area and in my humble opinion this would be ranked 5th of those 5 spots in food quality but highest in price. I won't be returning unless someone invites me and spends their money. read more

If you want some of the best bbq you have to try Bobby Qs. The brisket sandwich was soooooo good, perfect bun with a little crisp on the outside, and tender meat made to perfection. They give you cornbread complimentary and some fresh made donuts on the way out. The service is great, and the food usually comes out really quick. The outside and inside is decorated really cool, low light vibe inside with plenty of seating inside. Definitely coming back soon... read more

The food was hot and delicious. The service was fast and the wait staff were very attentive. There's really not a lot of ambiance because it was Saturday night and it's a busy place but it was altogether a good dining experience. I had a huge cheeseburger, my husband and daughter had prime rib, my grandson had brisket tacos and my son in law had a ribeye steak. It was expensive but worth it. They took our orders immediately and the food was at our table within 10 minutes. read more

Recently hub and I stopped in for food to go. We've always had great experiences at BQ, and this time decided to order its 8 oz. prime rib to split ; however, when we returned home, I was shocked and infuriated that each half consisted of fat leaving around 6 oz. of beef. See photo of my half. I realize everyone in retail has raised their prices but this was robbery. With tip our meal was $44.22 including tip. There's nothing super special about the ambiance. Our server at the bar was friendly but after this experience we won't be heading back there for any time forever. I f we had eaten at the restaurant I would've returned the prime rib. Shame on you for taking advantage of people currently struggling with high prices. The portions in the past were too much food to eat!!! but I'd suggest looking at order before leaving (I should not have been so trusting) read more

Food: Visiting my sister and decided to try Bobby Qs. I found the food to be ok. I'd give it a 7/10. I ordered the Tri Tip which tasted like it had been baked in an oven and maybe smoked afterwards to add a little of the smoke flavor but definitely to cooked on a real BBQ grill. The mac and cheese tasted like garden variety boxed mac and cheese and kinda hard to mess up the mashed potatoes. Think every fast food BBQ place you have ever visited. They are ok if you are not a foodie and your thoughts of food are "fills a hole" but if you are a real food and looking for authentic BBQ then this is not for you. However, what wasnt a miss was the nice free bite sized doughnuts they served at the end of the meal for free. They were great and it was a nice touch. Ambiance: Nice ambiance. Beautifully decorated. The place had the familiar pleasant smell of smoked meats but unfortunately, I smelled more than I tasted. Service: The service was excellent. My server was very helpful, professional and pleasant. We were seated quickly and the food was served pretty quickly as well. Parking: Great parking options Overall: Loved the service, the ambiance was nice and the food was ok. read more

Came here as a party of 4. Our friends went once and said how good it was so we tried it out with them. Over an hour drive, and absolutely not worth it. Our service was terrible, the margarita flight was shot glass size $20 and the most disgusting flight I've ever had! Flights are my favorite and I order them everywhere I can. I couldn't drink these. They care more about the presentation than the taste. The husband's at our tables had to be the disposal for them and they were not a fan also but how could we waste $20 on such a small amount, right? The Texas Twinkies were very good and it's the only item that saved this trip from a 1 star visit. Brisket plate was small portioned for the price and flavorless unless bbq was on it. Smoked pulled pork sandwich was okay, very smokey. Cornbread was delicious. We will probably not ever go back. read more

For starters, the location I went to has somewhat of an odd location. It borders I-17, but you the parking lot is really in the back off 27th Ave. The ambiance is pretty good. Open space, good smell of smoked meats in the place. The service was fast and friendly and you get free doughnuts are the end of your meal. My meal was kind of hit and miss. The Q rolls (akin to brisket stuffed eggrolls with dipping sauce) are pretty tasty, the cornbread with butter is also good, and the Mac and cheese was good as well. My brisket sandwich was mediocre. The brisket itself was very thinly sliced and somewhat mashed today. Also, it was mushy. Not sure what caused that. Overall, the service was good, most of the food was pretty good, but brisket (which should have been the star of the show) was underwhelming. Your mileage may vary... read more

Decided to try Bobby-Qs for Dinner. I got the wood fired top sirloin medium with coleslaw and Mac & Cheese. The steak came out pretty rare. They took it back and comped us the Butter Cake. My Fabulous Wife got the 3 meat combo. We basically shared this while my steak was cooking. The baby back ribs were fall off the bone. They were delicious. Would Like a little leaner and the silver skin removed, but was good. The brisket was lean, tender, melt in your mouth party. So freaking tasty. Amazing. The pulled pork was just ok. I loved the Mac & Cheese and Coleslaw. The steak showed up, but was too full. Had to take it to go. They comped the butter cake which was absolutely phenomenal and decadent. The service was superb and would definitely return. read more

Everyone you want to try this fine establishment. It may be pricy for some, however they do have an excellent platter that cost est $86.00 That feeds a family of 6. That's about $16.00 per person. The pick is from the baby back ribs my friend ordered. read more

Craving some good BBQ and passed by this place on the freeway. Went in and immediately was shocked at how much space they have inside. They cater so its understandable that they also manage big parties inside. In fact the table behind us had like 17 people Our server was very kind and on it! We got brisket tacos and a pulled pork sandwich. My wife enjoyed her meal but did think the brisket was dry even with sauce and even some lime. The tortillas were also very flimsy and would probably hold better getting time on a grill. She was in love with the cornbread though and she doesn't usually reach for it!! For the pulled pork.. it was okay. The tenderness was there but the bun soaked so much of butter oil? Not sure.. and all of it at the bottom got moist and fell apart. To our surprise at the end of the bill, the brought out some donuts for us. Didn't know they did that. So that was a sweet surprise, no pun intended All in all.. the restaurant itself has wonderful service- the food manager even came around to check on us-, can handle big parties and you'll get BBQ at a pretty good price. Was it the best we ever tried.. no but we would return and try again due to their quality of service and attentiveness. read more

Bobby Q in Phoenix delivered a solid dining experience, and a big part of that was Anthony, my server. He knew the menu well, made helpful suggestions based on taste, kept my drinks on point, and checked in at the right times to make sure I had everything I needed. I ordered the two-meat plate with brisket and sausage, with BBQ sauce on the side. The jalapeño cheese sausage was the standout--great flavor, not overpowering, and cooked to the right temperature. The brisket was a bit too salty for my taste. I'm sure some people like it that way, but I was hoping for more of a smoky flavor that I didn't really get from the meat. The sauce was very sweet, and it seemed like it may be intended to balance the saltiness. The corn was a little bland (I expected more of a roasted taste), but it was still fine. The brussels sprouts were fantastic. The atmosphere was a little dark, and I was initially seated near a very loud table, but they quickly accommodated me and moved me to a quieter, better-lit area so I could talk business--much appreciated. They also send you home with a bag of fresh donuts, which was a nice touch. Overall, I'd recommend Bobby Q as a place to try, even if it isn't my personal favorite. read more

This was the first time I've eaten inside this restaurant although I've had takeout here before. I gave it a four star review because it is not the best BBQ I've ever had as it advertises itself to be but Bobby Q is a very, very good food experience. I really enjoyed the St Louis ribs. They are sweet, moist, delicious, fall off the bone tender and is just what the doctor ordered. My daughter and wife have tried the baby back, brisket, pulled pork, etc - which I've tasted and it is all great. Their sides are decent too. The server was well trained and personable, the interior was inviting and although crowded the place wasn't super loud and the country music was at a good level for us. Prices are reasonable and I gladly will eat here again. read more

Was in phoenix for work trips and came here a few times for take out and the chicken was delicious! I am on an animal based diet and only eat meat and fruit. It would be cool if they had a fruit option so I could get a full meal to eat but the chicken was delicious. Both times I came in the employees were happy to great me and took great care of me. The environment looks cool inside and is very clean though I never dined in. Only weird thing about this place is they charge a takeout fee and I didn't like that. Not sure why that is there but if needed calculate it in cost of goods don't charge me an additional fee just to order food from you. read more

This has been my favorite place for barbecue, but I never tried a burger! Thank God, I chose it today! Absolutely the Best Burger! If you're looking for a big, juicy, mouthwatering burger, Bobby Q's is the place to go! This burger was absolutely incredible--thick, perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and so juicy that every bite was an experience. The size was impressive, the meat was tender and flavorful, and that first bite was exactly what you hope for when you're craving a great burger. It was juicy without being dry, loaded with flavor, and big enough to leave you completely satisfied. Honestly, this may be one of the best-tasting burgers I've ever had! If you love a serious burger, Bobby Q's is definitely worth trying. Come hungry--you're going to get a BIG, juicy burger! Ask for extra sauce! That sauce is amazing read more

Vibe was great--modern steakhouse feel with a relaxed atmosphere. Music was low, which I love. Seating felt a little awkward if you're someone who likes to people-watch, but not a dealbreaker. Jaden was awesome--very knowledgeable, super attentive without hovering. All business, but with a friendly smile. He stayed on top of things, and drinks came out quickly and were mostly really well made. Spicy Mango Margarita - Jalapeño-infused tequila, lime, agave, mango, Tajín rim. Tastes just like a mangonada. The jalapeño tequila gives it a nice back burn that leaves your lips tingling. Personally, I'd double the spice and cut the sweetness a bit, but overall, a fun drink. Blue Rose Lemonade - Vodka, blueberry-rosemary syrup, lemonade. Refreshing and balanced--sweet without being too much, with a nice tart finish. The rosemary adds a surprising twist that really works. Coconut Lime Mojito - Bacardi, coconut purée, lime, mint, soda. Honestly? I want to be drinking this on a beach. Light, tropical, and the mint hits just right with every sip. Easily one of my favorites of the night. Bobby's Mule - Tequila, lime, ginger beer, honey vanilla syrup. Lighter than your usual mule. Not a ton of ginger bite, but the honey-vanilla smooths it out in a nice way. Raspberry Sangria - Fruity, easy to drink, nothing crazy but enjoyable. Q-Rolls - Crispy on the outside, packed with tender smoked brisket inside. The chipotle ranch was a great match--savory, smoky, and creamy. The BBQ sauce on the side though? Way too sweet and flat. Gave serious bottled sauce energy, like something off a grocery store shelf. Now for the real disappointment: the BBQ. We ordered the three meat combo--jumbo beef ribs, brisket, pulled pork--with a side of spicy sausage, mac & cheese, and ranch-style beans. I've had BBQ all over the country, and I really wanted to like this, but it was a hard miss. Everything came drenched in sauce. Not good sauce. It tasted cheap and cloyingly sweet--worse than KC Masterpiece, and that's saying something. Please, leave it on the side. I want to taste the actual meat, not fight through a layer of sugar glaze. The pulled pork was decent, probably the best of the bunch, but again--completely drowned in sauce. The brisket looked beautiful and juicy when it hit the table, but three bites in, it turned dry and tough. The beef ribs were massive but completely smothered, making them hard to eat without commuting to a full face scrub in the restroom. I tried to wrench off a bite with a fork, and it was just...fatty in the worst way. Not that melt-in-your-mouth BBQ fat, more like thick, greasy film-in-your-mouth fat. The mac was super cheesy (which I don't mind), but completely unseasoned. No salt, no pepper, no depth. The ranch beans were sweet, which was confusing--when I hear "ranch beans" I expect something smoky or savory. This just didn't work. There was also no smoke ring, no dry rub, no clear style of BBQ. I'm not sure what direction they were going for, but it fell flat across the board. For "smoking the meat for 22 hours", as Jaden informed us they do, this ain't it. The only saving grace was how well Jaden and Romi (the manager) handled it when we sent food back. Super professional and understanding, no awkwardness at all. Service, drinks, and the Q-rolls were solid--but the food overall was a letdown. Would I come back? This was already their second chance after an underwhelming experience at the Biltmore location. The only reason I might give them another shot would be to try a steak--but even that's a stretch at this point. Overall: 2/5. Great service, great drinks--but the food was a major flop, and it's hard to come back from that. read more
