We have been hearing good things so we gave Corky's another try. The Ambiance is still wonderful and the restaurant is clean and welcoming. Our server was Gabby Marshall (there's 2 Gabbys!) and she took Excellent care of our party of 6! She was bubbly, efficient, and gave great suggestions! The food was also Delicious, big portions, and hot! Great turnaround and a wonderful experience!! Thanks Gabby! read more

I just left Corkys in Olive Branch. I went with my son and daughter-in-law expecting the best bbq in the world which was my assessment from years ago but was extremely disappointed with the changes in taste and consistency. The jumbo bbq sandwich was less meat which was tough, the 1/2 slab of rib dinner was very disappointing with small ribs and very little meat on the bones(it was to go)., the sides were small portioned and together the meals cost $96.00+ it would have been very worth it had it lived up to the quality and taste I remembered from the past. Recently moving back into the area it was my 1st choice and now it is the last. I am very sorry to place such negativity in this but as before, I AM VERY DISSAPPOINTED! read more

I'm baaack!! My first Memphis BBQ experience 30+ years ago was Corky's - tangy, molassey (is this a word?!?), sweet but not too sweet sauce, perfect smokiness in the meats, terrific coleslaw and meaty baked beans. Oh my!! Over the years, I've tried almost all of Memphis' BBQ around the city. Went back to Corky's occasionally and was sometimes disappointed because management had neglected different parts of the BBQ experience. But - no more! Corky's is my #1 favorite Memphis BBQ and the restaurant in Olive Branch has brought me back to the food. Loved the friendly greeting and service, the promptly served and very cold local beer (Crosstown Traffic IPA - spot on!), and especially especially the perfectly smoked and sauced 1/2 chicken! Oh my goodness! Want tradition? Seeking epic Memphis flavor? Corky's is it all the way!!.. read more

Pickup order Needed larger sides for the to go order. No comment on the service. The bartender was nice. Was disappointed in the bbq pork sandwich as it was very dry. They really need to add packets with the to go orders. The sausage and cheese plate had more sauce. read more

Reco Lizar was my server and he makes customer service look good! He was great at what he does and a blessing to talk to. Hate to say, not many people in the customer service industry do the service. But Reco showed up and showed out! Oh, and Corky's food was great as well! Haha Will be back! read more

Drive thru order... I waited in line for about 15 mins or longer several vehicles in front of me. I was asked to drive out of the line after waiting that long. Still had to wait another 10 to 15 mins. Received my food left food was cold burger and the fries. Why did I have to waste my time just to receive cold food. I told the lady there she dud not say I am sorry or nothing regarding this matter. I placed a order one item that will not be hot so, I would not be disappointed again. She looked at me like okkkkkk and what do you want me to do about it!!! Very unprofessional do not need to be in this profession at all. My opinion don't get anything that suppose to be hot. read more

The service could have been ALOT better!!! Been here plenty of times with great experiences...until tonight!!! Waited AT LEAST 5 MINUTES, if not 10. We were the 1st ones there. But guy who sat down after us got his food 1st. Catfish wasn't done also. Great bbq though!! read more

The only positive aspect of our experience was that the waitress attempted to improve a bad situation. It took an exceedingly long time for us to receive our food, and most of it seemed to have been sitting under the heat lamps for too long, except for the ribs. Unfortunately, they were extremely cold when I had to eat them. Do yourself a favor and look for better barbecue options in this town. read more

I went in for a take out order the evening of Feb. 19, 2026. The host behind the bar was a short, bald, bearded man. As soon as I finished giving him my to go order, he started pandering for a tip. Then he went to the back and returned, stating take care of me and I will take care of you. I was just trying to get a meal to go, not negotiate a quid pro quo. If I see him in there again I will just walk out and go get a burger. read more

Receiving Warm welcome from Friendly staff and having true Memphis BBQ at Corky's was phenomenal experience in the culinary universe! I enjoyed the last lick from my pinky finger lol I am not Memphis resident and had a quite a few Corky's slaps of ribs (some grocery chains in TX) before but having the famous Corkys ribs at the store fulfilled my appetite; loved the smell, flavor, texture, and even small chitchat with the server read more
