Tried Brody's for the first time yesterday and now I understand why it was so packed. Parking can be a little challenging, but they do have a lot across the street plus overflow parking, which helped. We grabbed seats at the bar so we could watch the game and enjoy a few drinks. Adi was our bartender and did a great job checking in on us throughout the meal without being overbearing. Really appreciated the attentive service. We ordered the Dino ribs, pork ribs, tri tip, and lemon pepper chicken, and everything was delicious. The meats were flavorful and cooked well. Jenny recommended the Oreo and chocolate milkshakes for my girls, and they absolutely loved them. After dinner, I took the girls out to their backyard area, and they had a great time walking around and checking everything out. It was a nice way to end the evening. Overall, great food, excellent customer service, and a family-friendly atmosphere. We had a really good experience and would definitely bring the family back again. read more

Came here for dinner last night around 6:30 it was pretty busy and they were sold out of a lot of meat sadly, but food was great we got the new Cubano and split a couple sides with my husband! Sam was great with checking in on us and let us know they tend to run out around 6pm so we'll definitely be back for lunch soon! read more

I think we've found our new favorite bar! From the moment we walked in, we were treated like family. The service was absolutely outstanding, and Kanea, Jill (with a G!), and Adi went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. We laughed, shared stories, and genuinely had such a great time. It's rare to find a place with not only great food and drinks but also a staff that makes the experience so memorable. We can't wait to come back--this is definitely going to be our new go-to spot! read more

Brody's Restaurant - White mango sangria - Barbeque Near Me - Sacramento, California

A solid restaurant in Freeport catering to a very wide audience of old school diners as well as newer age modernists. The vibes are very homey and somewhat eclectic but uncluttered. Overall, the food is good but not amazing. Compared to some of our Sacramento staples, Tank House, Urban Roots, Buckhorn, this place doesn't really meet the mark. I would say the offerings are not particularly unique, but the executions are. The beans and potato salad were a bit unusual and were a bit visually unappealing, flavor-wise fine. I think of all the meats, the pork was the best. Ribs and pulled pork were cooked well. The tri tip had good flavor but tougher texture. Chicken was fine. The hot links were also fine. I think the corn bread was great, but not particularly special. The butter it came with was a bit fruity which was a nice surprise. The prices are pretty average for BBQ, which I would expect. They seem to sell out of things often, so make sure you come early to ensure you get what you want. Lots of places to sit, indoors and outdoors, and plenty of parking as well. The staff is very helpful and nice. Shout out to Samira and Jenny in particular. We had a large party that they catered. While there was a mix-up with an extra rack of ribs, they were very gracious in trying to make it up for us. read more

Fantastic BBQ place located on Freeport Blvd next to the river close to Consumnes River Blvd. When you first enter, there is the counter for placing your order, then you can take your choice from the plentiful indoor or outdoor seating in a rustic decor. I ordered the sausage(hot links), mac n cheese, collard greens and a Root beer, took my number and grabbed a seat (there is a nice selection of beers , but I was looking forward to the root beer ) Counter person was pleasant in taking my order. In short order my food was brought. Sausage was nicely sliced and had great flavor and just enough heat not to make me regret my choice. Collard greens were rich in flavor , with some broth and meat to accentuate the flavor. Macaroni and cheese was firm noodled, rich in creamy cheesiness. I also got some Tri Tip to bring home, it was a little on the peppery side but with the BBQ sauce, very tasty? Prices are good for this quality of BBQ, the service is excellent (staff walking by hellful in getting refills or to go boxes) Great option of your looking for BBQ in the South Sac area read more

Really good pulled pork and Mac and cheese. Ribs were good. Will definitely order these again if we are back in the area. Liked their original bbq sauce, sweet with a hint of smokiness. Had an awesome outdoor seating area. Great staff, there were super helpful and friendly. I definitely want to try their pulled pork fries next time. Things I would pass on next time are the tri tip. It was really dry and extremely peppery and I don't mind pepper at all, it was just a bit much. Noticed a lot of ppl like their tri tip. Maybe I just go a dry batch. Not sure, but I wasn't a huge fan. The sausage was simple with decent flavor. Everything tasted good when you added the bbq sauce to it. Cornbread was extremely crumbly. As soon as you cut into it just fell apart, but don't get me wrong it tasted really good. Overall a decent place. read more

Lemon Pepper Wings (4/5): Exceptionally seasoned, crispy, and succulent. Sausage (3/5): Flavorful, but lacking the desired snap and a robust, meaty texture. Beef Dino Rib (3.8/5): Wonderfully flavorful and moist, though lacking the ultimate level of tenderness. Mac N Cheese (3.75/5): Tasty and well-made, but could benefit from a more dominant cheese profile. Drinks (4.5/5): Visually stunning and delightfully potent. Service 4/5: Attentive when restaurant was busy Ambiance 5/5: Shaded, good family vibes, great outdoor patio read more

Came here after a wedding as an intermediate stop. We had a drink and since we were going to the reception next. We didnt get to try their food, but it did smell really good. The place inside is abut small for the var, but still good for a few small groups. What is awesome about it, is the outside seating. Its great and super spacious. It seems you can play games and also be away from the main busy areas within sac. Would highly recommend going. They also have very clean restrooms with a shared sink area to wash your hands. So even if you dont need to use it, you can quickly wash your hands. Also the pricing seem fair for the drinks and food. So its a good date night, hangout night, or just catch a drink and some food alone. read more

We celebrated our friend's birthday for brunch on a Sunday and we arrived as soon as they opened. They were not too busy. You order food at the counter then find seating. Tons of seating outside in the front and in the back and inside the restaurant. We sat outside in the back and it was really pretty. We ordered the Smokehouse Burrito, The Birdie Sandwich, Breakfast Omelette, and Vietnamese Phin. The food was so delicious. I look forward to returning here. read more

Deep fried pickles and $5.00 beers. If that doesn't get you interested in Brody's restaurant, there's so much more! They have pulled pork sandwiches, wings, smoked sausages, trip tip, chicken, brugers, salads, and more! There's live music on Friday's, corn hole, great service, a friendly vibe, and a good selection of wine and beer. It's located off Freeport Boulevard, in Freeport, right next to the river. There's plenty of parking and plenty to fill your belly, and warm your soul. read more

Love the happy hour from 3pm to 6pm I believe with some of the food discounted and something available for everyone! I wish the seating was clean / wiped / sanitized more regularly as it felt sticky or food particles left behind on the tables and or chairs inside and outside, but other than that I did enjoy the experience! I would not recommend the dirty sodas as what we received was not how it was described, and rather than checking in to see if it's something we would still like, he made it without letting us know therefore we were not expecting what we received since that's not how it was described to us prior to ordering. The kind gentleman behind the counter was very friendly, patient, and welcoming. He provided us with menus and reminded us he can help us at the counter whenever we are ready. We tried the Mac and cheese, tri tip sandwich, and coleslaw. We look forward to coming back to try more of their food! Also plenty of parking around the corner at their overflow area. Games outside available! Next door is their secret bar SideDoor with bites, foods, games, drinks, and specials! read more

We stopped by here for dinner on a weeknight. Both parking in the front and overflow parking were filled. Luckily, there was one spot for us right in the front. Counter service. Place an order at the counter and grab your own seat. There are indoor and outdoor seating. Self serve water and condiments station. I decided on tri-tip sandwich no cheese and waffle fries. Tri-tip was a bit dry and they didn't put enough bbq sauce. The waffle fries was the best of the night. Side salad was nothing special. My bf and his friends got the smokehouse platter and beef rib. Customer service was great. Parking can be packed and tight. read more

I'm now a Brody's fan! The sandwiches are beautiful and taste even better. My daughter got embarrassed because I kept saying, "These sandwiches are beautiful!", getting a little louder each time. I wanted everyone there to acknowledge how beautiful they were. I'm a gardener and loved the flowers out front and the backyard garden. There are plenty of great photos of the sandwiches, (Did you hear? They are beautiful!), so I'll post a photo of the banana tree in the backyard. read more

Came by for brunch on a Sunday around 11am and was pleasantly surprised it wasn't too busy yet. They do have outdoor seating, which looked nice, but it was a bit too cold for us to enjoy that option. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted right away by a young staff member who was super friendly and welcoming. He asked if it was our first time (it was), gave us a quick rundown of how things work, and pointed us toward grabbing a menu and finding a table. The ordering setup is more of a walk up style, which personally isn't my favorite for a sit down brunch. I usually prefer to just settle in and be served but it didn't take away from the overall experience. The food is really what made this place stand out. I ordered the Birdie Sandwich and it was packed with flavor! the egg was cooked perfectly and everything just came together so well. It came with potatoes that were crispy and well seasoned, plus a small salad with a dressing that was honestly so good. We also tried the fried pickles, which were solid, especially with their ranch (it reminded me of that dill style dip from La Bou). The French toast was definitely on the sweeter side but really delicious and my daughters loved it. My husband ordered the tri tip omelette and enjoyed it as well. I also liked that they offer a "2 sides" option, which is a great deal. I went with waffle fries (super crispy) and a Caesar salad that was light and fresh. The Vietnamese coffee was spot on too. strong and perfectly balanced. The only thing that fell short for me was the beef rib we got to go. For the price, the portion felt pretty small compared to other local spots. That said, everything else we tried was really good and the service especially from that same staff member was attentive and genuinely kind. Overall, I'd definitely come back, just probably skip the rib next time. read more

We were looking for a place to eat BBQ and came across this spot on TikTok. We figured, why not give it a try? Just be prepared to wait--if you're not okay with that, this might not be the place for you. That said, the food was absolutely worth it! Everything we ordered was delicious. As someone from the Bay Area who's been searching for great BBQ, we're so glad we stumbled upon this place. A special shoutout to our server, Matt! He was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Matt has exactly the kind of positive energy every server should have. Thanks for the great service! read more

Second time here love the outdoor seating area options. There are 3 spots to choose from when you order your food at the counter. First time I came I got the pulled pork waffle fries. I could have done without the cheese on the waffle fries but the pulled pork was spot on. The other we came for breakfast and I got the breakfast omelette and it was amazing. Perfect balance of all flavors. Not too heavy not too sweet or not too salty. One of favorite places. Happy hour is 3-6pm and $5 beers and 2-3$ off certain items in the menu. read more

This is such a great place!! You immediately smell BBQ as soon as you get out of your car. So many great choices... burgers, sandwiches, salads...you can also get an order of meat, sausage or chicken and the sides, (cornbread, potato salad, beans...all the usual suspects). Good selection of drinks (alcoholic and non) and dirty sodas. There is also a huge beverage container with ice water. Employees are very kind and helpful. read more

First timer! Came with my friend to check out this place since it was both on our list to try. Place is cute with a lot of outdoors seating. Indoors is limited. Great place to come for a gathering and getting some sun. Staff were wonderful and gave us the details on how it works right when we walked in and checked in on us often too. Ordered the sample platter and it was a lot of food for 2 girls! Surprisingly, the sausage was my favorite. I did wish the ribs were more fall off the bone. The bbq sauce did make everything extra tasty! Did wish I had stomach space for cornbread. I also got a chocolate chip cookie which was perfectly soft with chocolate chunks, the way I like it. read more

Came here to get a couple of Happy Hour drinks before I head out to dinner. I want to stress it started to get busy. I was next in line at the bar. Bartender named Rebecca per the receipt directed another staff member to take my order, that person disappeared. It appeared the Rebecca was done with customer and I asked a question. She scolded me and said I will finish with them then u, while sarcastically gesturing both hands at me. I ordered two drinks to be efficient so I dont have to order again. She said I can come back when I am done with first one. She said she would bring my drink outside. Waited about 10 minutes and it did not come. I walked into bar, drink was made and sitting on back counter she handed it to me. I went outside to drink it and decided to go in to get my second drink. I asked for my drink, she seemed annoyed, made eye contact and did not acknowledge me. She made at least 10 cocktails while I was waiting. A person even walked in to bar and ordered two drinks and she made them immediately, she was so sweet to that person it was obvious she knew her. I grew impatient watching her make other drinks and I asked for a refund. She said my drink is next but willing to give me refund. I have been sitting another 10 minutes at bar. I then asked her how come there is no bacon in my Bloody Mary. She said happy hour does not get bacon. I have been here before for happy hour and there is always a big piece of bacon. Passive aggressive behavior. Obviously she was overwhelmed, but don't take it out on me. Maybe Rebecca cannot handle rush hour, have another bartender during this time I rated this place a 4 before but not today. This is my fourth time here and always had good customer service. Would rate zero if I could. read more

Brody's Restaurant & BBQ is an absolute gem in Sacramento! From the moment we walked in, the service was friendly and welcoming, and the food exceeded every expectation. The ribs were some of the best I've had--perfectly smoked, incredibly tender, and packed with flavor. They practically fell off the bone and had just the right balance of seasoning and BBQ sauce. The pulled pork was equally impressive: juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Every bite tasted like authentic, slow-smoked barbecue done right. The portions were generous, the atmosphere was comfortable and inviting, and you can tell they take pride in the quality of their food. If you're a BBQ lover looking for outstanding ribs and pulled pork in the Sacramento area, Brody's Restaurant & BBQ should be at the top of your list. Can't wait to come back and try more from the menu! read more

Food was great! Amazing burger, cooked to perfection. Ambiance was great too, great live music and great layout, right next to the river, awesome! Now to the not so good... the bar. Holy hell, talk about lack of or perhaps totally inept service, spent a total of 25 minutes waiting next in line... for two beers. No delegation, despite having multiple bar backs, bartender/manager(?) couldn't remember a drink to save her life, had to ask her customers what they ordered 2, 3, sometimes 4 times (!) and still managed to get drinks wrong (there was a graveyard of miss poured drinks in front of the taps lol), could barely reach the taps (please get her a taller step stool), was doing dishes while she had customers... in front of the dish washer... and took zero responsibility and didn't apologized for anything. Mind you I witnessed all of this while being the only other customer next in line... twice. After waiting for 10+ minutes the second time, (and still not busy at all) she seemingly didn't know I was there the entire time because she started helping someone else (who seemed to read the room better than I) and just tried to slide his order in on her. I spoke up, told her I was next, and to her credit she got my order... but... gave me a hazy instead of a regular IPA. I didn't say anything about the beer as I wasn't about to keep waiting, gave her some honest feedback, paid, and walked out. Now for the cherry on top. After the delicious burger we wanted to try their dessert menu (unfortunately the banana cream pie was lackluster at best, tasted out of a box) and we decided to try to order a beer through the restaurant rather than the bar. We got and took our time finishing dessert, and wouldn't you know it, still no beer. Ended up just going in and canceling the beer order. Unbelievable, haha. At that point all we could do was laugh, while we probably would have stayed and had more drinks as we had the sitter longer, there was no way we were going to sit there to maaaaaybe get what we ordered... at some point... or risk her coming out to ask what we ordered... so we just went home. On the plus side we got a nice view of the river just a short ways from the restaurant. Hope to go back soon, but will definitely check the comments to see if the bar has been sorted first lol. read more

I had a craving for a tasty, juicy, burger. There aren't very many really good burger places in Elk Grove. I heard from friend that Brody's had a good one, so I went to try. You order at the counter, pay, and then you find a seat in the dining area with your number. I ordered a Freeport burger. It comes with the choice of a salad or waffle fries. I opted for the waffle fries. The burger tasted ok, but the I thought the burger was over cooked. The edges around the patty were kind of on the crispy side, hard. The meat patty was not whole, it was split in half, but not evenly, and the grilled onions were in between the very thin patties. It seemed like it was an afterthought, or they forgot to do something. Anyways, the final product wasn't great. I was disappointed. Everything in the burger was nice, except the meat. read more

Food: 4.5 Mics Service: 4.5 Mics Ambiance: 4.5 Food: I came for the Dino Rib and it was tasty and smoky flavored. The meat was tender. The only complaint is that the rib I got was fatty. The greens were tender and flavorful. The green had no spice but still was good. Potato salad was good, I'm not a relish in the potato salad type of guy but you may enjoy it. Service: I was greeted as I entered and given a menu. I was directed to back where the tables were. There was no server so I went and ordered at the counter. Nothing to rave about and nothing to complain about. Ambiance: Log cabin vibes with cool gadgets here and there. It was clean and orderly. The fish tank was pretty cool. All in all, I'll return..I would recommend coming here and trying it out. I'll be back, maybe for some brisket in the weekend. read more

Headline: For your slow cooked meets on the Delta! Location: Nothing like a nice hearty meal when you've been wine tasting on the delta and Brody's fits the bill. Located just off of Freeport as you exit the delta, it can be easy to miss with its small parking lot and roadside off a major road but you would be really missing out not to stop by. Be forewarned that their main lot is fairly small but they do have some parking to the left side as well. Ambiance: The main counter is sandwiched between the bar and their seating area which is open first come first serve. While it's unassuming it's all business at the front with staff ready to take your order as you walk in. There is also a seating area that is covered on the right for this time of year. What this place lacks in parking makes up in all the seating areas. The vibe is really road side wood building feeling which I really dig for this location . Service/Food: Service on the restaurant side was great as they take your order up front, give you a number and you find a place to seat. The staff was friendly and attentive and we didn't have any issues. The real deal with this place is the smoked meats. While the brisket isn't the best I have, it still hits the spot. Of course there can be some variability depending on the day in terms of dryness but everything I've had these last couple trips as been satisfying and filling. Don't skip on the corn bread and sauce as well! Despite the parking this place is a great stop after or before a Delta visit. It has been a part of routine when we come out here with family and will continue to be! read more

We came back here to try their burgers this time. The girl greeted us and said that the menus were here and we could go over to the counter and order when we were ready. I got the Levi's burger and added another patty. It was pretty good. I asked for the fries to be extra crispy and they were. My wife got the Freeport burger and liked it also. She had it before. The dinning area was clean but there were crumbs on the seats. Just a brush off and we sat down. Only one other customer there. I was going to check out the bar are but it was pretty full so we came to the dinning room instead. One day I will go in there and see how different it is eating in there. read more

Delicious food, great atmosphere, and awesome service! My husband and I came here for a bite to eat after picking up something in the delta shores area. We went here on a whim, and was not disappointed. Bbq lovers, this is definitely a place to try. To order: order at the main counter and they will being you a number/bring your order to you. There's dinning room seating, and backyard (outdoor) seating. Food: First off, the bbq sauce (both regular and spicy) was so good! You can grab sauce off the counter and they are warmed up. The spicy isn't that spicy, but has a great enough kick. They have a variety for bbq, burgers, coffee, and more! I ordered the Dino rib with Mac and cheese and Granny Smith apple Cole slaw. My husband ordered the tri tip loaded fries. Everything was delicious. Their cheese was great on the fries and Mac and cheese. I loved how refreshing the Granny Smith Apple Cole slaw was, although I was missing the Granny Smith apples in it. Fries were crispy and the meat was fresh. I love how they decorated for the holiday season. The staff were really nice and checked in on us from time to time. I heard they have a band come in on Fridays, so I 'll have to come back when the band is playing. read more
