Pleasantly authentic, has that hole in the wall/hometown hero charm. Had the beef platter, which was similar to a pulled pork but more lean. Sauce is tasty! Some of the best onion rings I have had so far. Wish "Hot" sauce was hotter, and bathrooms were updated. read more

The guy at the counter is ridiculously friendly and well intentioned but we got 3/4 of the food we ordered and it was $68 for 2 entrees 3 sides. Definitely a premium for the location but it was worth the experience!!! read more

Best barbecue you ever had moved to Pa and wish I could get one here in Pa Delicious !!! read more

This place is decent price for bbq. I'd definitely come back. Just didn't care for the sweet sauce or using the kiosk to order food.

This was our first time ordering from Frogs. My husband and I just retired in Dunnellon Florida, and we have been struggling to find local good/acceptable Barbeque. This place is located in Williston Florida which is about 20 miles from our home in Rainbow Lakes Dunnellon Florida. The outside of the building reminds me of an old time BBQ shack. The area reeked of delicious BBQ. We ordered the chopped pork sandwich with fries and a drink. This was one of the lunch special. My husband ate all of his lunch, but it was too much for me...I didn't eat any more food the rest of the day. Delicious! Excellent service! I am also an Army Vet so just show your Military ID for the discount. Thank you Frogs !! read more

Frogs is a Williston icon that we visit whenever we're in the area. Though I do feel as though things have changed since we visited a couple of years ago, I still loved my BBQ beef sandwich! Service was great, guys were very friendly. Frogs has a long "casual, pretty much trailer and outdoor or lean-to seating". Don't go for the ambiance, go for the food! read more

Great food. Had the BBQ sandwich with my fiancé. We both thought it was delicious. We definitely want to go back. Perfect little spot.

Food was so good. Love love the baked beans..great service..so glad we decided to stop here...

Looking for exceptional BBQ? You must visit this place! We had brisket sandwiches (huge) and found them to be remarkably tender, juicy, and flavorful. Don't be misled by the building's appearance... go check out the pad!!! read more

Totally disappointed. Two visits in two weeks and bad both times! I am from the local area and have enjoyed this place for 50+ years. Not any more. They have changed the way they cook their meat and changed its consistency. Greasy, big globs of meat, and no taste (both pork and beef) - appears to be tasteless boiled meat soaked in BBQ sauce ... Fries were undercooked. Yet as lousy as it was, they have not hesitated to raise their prices. I believe people still eat here out of past tradition - not realizing it has "sunk to nothing." Again, sad to see a place that once had the best BBQ around, settle to serve such horrible food! Avoid! read more

Don't judge a book by the cover or a restaurant by it's curb appeal. We had large family gathering over the weekend and all went to the botanical gardens. We needed a place where our loud overtired kiddos wouldn't be bothering anyone and yet the food was good. I called ahead and asked if they could accommodate our large group, they said yes so after the gardens we headed over. When we first arrived (since none of us had seen the place before calling them) several in the party were put off by the appearance of the building and how small it was. However, the kind and friendly waitress & cook more than made up for it. The food was delicious. The place was clean and we all felt right at home taking over the little restaurant as if we were just gathering around someones (very large) dining room table. When were back in the area we will stop here again. read more

Food could be fresher. Beans were good. Not big bbq taste. More just reheated meet with bbq sauce all over it.

We had 6 ppl on a Sat night at 9 pm, ordered the combo platter for 6, first every thing way overcooked, everything but fries was in baggies and reheated in microwave, tastes like bad leftovers, the sides were the best of the mea by far, for 4 stars yalls bar is set way low, no smoked flavor, no tug, no moisture, read more

Delicious BBQ. Good service. Always worth the trip. Never disappoints. Reminds me of my childhood. Love the pulled pork sandwich.

I must say, today I was very disappointed in frogs. Almost every other Sunday I go there to get something for my sister and not only was it hot instead of mild...it was dry and not wet like I asked. Mind you we live in archer and my sister was gonna eat it for dinner. She called me and told me what happened so I called frogs to let them know what happened. The girl asked if we still had the meat and if we did to bring it back and they would remake it. First of all, this is a health risk and rude. She told me I could call back on Monday and speak to the Mgr. I am not a scammer, in fact we have never had an issue, but it kinda came off like we were scamming. We have been eating from frogs for a long long time...before these owners. And never had anything like this said to us before. Shame on you frogs. Signed, a long time no longer a customer.​ read more

The ribs are beef ribs and are very gamey. My family is a mixed race blended one, and based on the poor service, their insistence my daughter use an extra plate "so she doesn't make a orange mess on my white table", and the loud OAN political network sending it's negative messaging, we felt unwelcome and judged. The medium, mustardy and not too sweet BBQ sauce was the best part of this poor experience. The meal was only made better by the diners who refused to make eye contact or the opposite that stared at us. My children could feel pap-able negative attention we were receiving. Shame on this place and the people who operate it. I hope you are proud to make children uncomfortable. read more

Frogs is a Williston staple and just fine BBQ....Go get ya some frogs if you're there are passing thru

Stopped in on recommendation from online reviews. Eaten a lot of Q in Florida but this was fair at best. Ribs were dried out and over cooked. Some of the rib meat was unchewable. Pulled pork sandwich was OK but nothing to write home about. Corn nuggets were tasty but a lot of oil from fryer still in batter. Served with ranch dipping sauce. Coleslaw was fair at best. Went out of our way just to go here. Will keep looking next time through. #TaSteflaroad read more

Frogs Barbeque Pad - two plates of food - Barbeque Near Me - Williston, Florida

This is the second time I've eaten here. I only came this time because my husband is fond of the place. I think I would like the food better if the atmosphere was nicer. It's just so rundown that it distracts from the food. I have only had the pork. I like that they grill the bun but the meat really lacks a smoky taste. There is zero evidence of a smoke house so I guess they prepare the meat offsite. I think I'm the future I will pass. read more

We went to the Devil's Den and stopped to eat here on our way back to Miami. We had the pull pork sandwich (sweet medium), fries (well done), corn on the cobb, cole slaw, corn nuggets and sweet tea. Every single item we had was delicious Awesome barbecue spot, the staff was really friendly and pleasant ! The facilities are welcoming, quaint, clean and cozy. Highly recommended! A+++ read more

Frogs Barbeque Pad - Barbeque Near Me - Williston, Florida

The food is just ok. Nothing spectacular. The service was good. The place is not just old but in need of some cleaning and care. The name gives you the idea of something special. Unfortunately it really isn't. read more

Lady was very nice. Food was nothing special (Pulled pork and burger) always like to support local business as opposed to chain restaurants, this one was disappointing. read more

Food was awesome and the service was sooo pleasant! We sat outside and cant wait for an opportunity to go back and try other menu items!

Must Stop in North Central FL for this TREAT! Every time I get home I come back! And you should too! The recipe hasn't changed in years! And there is no reason for it to. This is the best barbecue in the State of Florida! Not because I am biased to my hometown classic. But, coming from a line of native Floridians, I have been raised on barbecue and can attest this is the real deal. Stop by the shack that is Frogs. Let the screen door creek and slam (isn't that the best sound in the world?) behind you. Order at the counter, sit down and prepare for Barbecue Xanadu. Don't forget to order a bottle or two to take home to the family!! read more

yum yum and YUM! Stopped at Frogs BBQ on the way to Devil's Den and I'm glad I did. I had the large pulled pork sandwich, baked beans, potato salad and huge sweet tea. I opted for the sweet sauce on the sandwich (they have a variety of options from sweet to spicy). The service was great, the people here are very kind. My food was served immediately. There's room for about 20 people inside as it's quite small. Worth pulling over for! read more

Great little stop for lunch. Had the sweet bbq pork sandwich. Just regret not getting the corn nuggets.

Oh man do I love Frog's bbq. I grew up eating here and have fond memories. Of course this was at their old location before the fire, but the food has remained the same over the years. It isn't a fancy place by any means, but all you need is some good smoked meats and their yummy sauce! I'll be down sometime this year to get my frog's fix! read more

Outstanding! This is an unpretentious looking little place, but I sure enjoyed my BBQ beef sandwich and fries. I used the "hot" sauce on my sandwich and, while I'm not really a "sauce" type, I thoroughly enjoyed it. We'll be here for another couple of weeks so I'm sure we'll be back at least once. read more

Big downgrade here: $11 lunch special that consists of a drink, a little portion of fries, and sparse meat just doesn't cut it. Walked in today thinking their prices were too high and they had gone and upped their prices. Sorry. That too much for lunch. Not even close to competitive. read more

Being a California girl, I have been told that I have no idea what real BBQ is, and I really can't argue with this. Apparently what I knew as BBQ was only in reality grilling, and after eating at Frog's I can definitely see what the difference is! I'm not one for pork, but I'm always down for beef! So I got the BBQ beef sandwich, and holy crap if it wasn't the tastiest, juiciest, messiest, most delicious truly BBQ sandwich I have ever eaten! I have been back to Frogs since my first time, and plan to go back every time I am in Gainesville. read more

worst bbq in the area this is truly bbq from a can..yuck ! nuff said better bbq in the area read more

For those looking for a local hole in the wall with local food! My husband & I love local places and found this place. Shared a beef&pork barbeque. Just saying you needs fork & knife to eat it. Quaint and a fun stop. Need to try it! read more

Looks can be deceiving! Small shack delivers big flavors. Try the family special for 4. Feeds an army.

The bbq here is great and the service is wonderful. The atmosphere is very original and will make anyone smile.

Awesome BBQ! One of my favorite BBQ restaurants I have ever had. When you first walk in, you're not really that impressed... But the food is phenomenal! read more

I really love frogs Barbeque. They are always so friendly there, and even if it doesn't look like much the food is great. The only complaint I have are the restrooms. To be frank, they are quite bad. But the food is the main attraction, and it delivers. I always get their pork plate special which is amazing. The bread is toasted great, and the beans are some of the best I've had. I would highly recommend coming here if you're nearby. read more

small place right on hwy 27, just before you get into williston, on the right side if you're driving from ocala. prices are good and the sandwiches are good. from what i was told, the name comes from the original owner who's last name was, naturally, Frog. the meat isn't the smokiest i've had but it is good and the bbq sauce is tasty. i suggest going straight to the hot bbq sauce. its not insanely hot and has just about the right amount of zip to it to not overpower the meat. counter service is friendly. if you are driving through right around eatin' time, pull in and say hey. its a small cozy place and the seating is limited, and there is a picnic table outside and a small water garden. read more

They say you can't judge a book by it's cover. Well that needs to be taken to heart when you drive up to this place. The food is good, especially the pulled pork. BUT, it looks horrible outside and even worse inside. It is an old mobile home that was patched together and somehow made into a kitchen. I wont call it a restaurant. The bug zappers, open electrical boxes and foot of dirt on the floor wont allow me to. Did I mention that you cant stand up straight because the floor slants at a 30 degree angle? I dont know how dirty the kitchen may be but we have all eaten dirt a time or two haven't we? Like I said, the food is good. As a matter of fact, I am going there this afternoon. read more
