This is one of the places where I say I am going to order something different and then I don't. I order the same thing every time. The baby back ribs. I did shake up the sides. I got the cajun fries and the cole slaw. The ribs never disappoint very tender and good! Cajun fries had a bite to them. They were very shoe string and short. Not sure if I got the end of the bag or what. They were ok. Cole slaw very creamy. We did order the onion rings for the table. They are a favorite appetizer for my Dad. They are very good. Battered, hot, really tastee with a bit of salt. They have a horseradish sauce that goes with too. That's OK. If you like onion rings these are super good. Service was good. Our server was very efficient and checked on us a handful of times. The main room is very large with high ceilings. Like a cabins great room. The bar is off to the right side when you walk in. It's nice and also very cabin like feel. Good BBQ. Portions decent. Prices are about average for BBQ. Plenty of parking and easy to find.

This is our second or third time at Mendel's and we were definitely not disappointed…read more Stopped by for lunch today and we each had a "BBQ salad" starter and shared the pico french fries. My wife had a quite fine Cabernet as I had one of the many beers on their list. Disappointingly, every one of the "Mendel's favorite" beers were out of stock, but I found one eventually! The Restaurant at lunch was not terribly busy, although we got there on the very early side. The service was outstanding and friendly. Parking was extremely easy to come by behind the building. The BBQ salad dish is really terrific and was more than sufficient as a lunch meal itself. The texture and taste of beans and barbecue and coleslaw and fried onions and pickles was a perfect blend. Really fine. The pico fries were so substantial that we ate some and took quite a few home. The taste was perfect. The ambience includes a funky blend of 1980s top 40 music and a big screen TV playing random international sports. Definitely will go back.

Arrived at 405pm for my 4pm rsvp and they somehow opened at 4, yet had people packing the bar, and…read morewere already out of ribeye and mashed potatoes. As of 430 they were turning people away due to being out of literally everything except some chicken. I understand not wanting to waste food but... if you're out of food by 30min past your opening time then you're doing something seriously wrong. My order is still not out. This is barbecue. It has been 1 hour and I am only one of three parties at tables. The waitress is incredibly nice but can't make up for ungodly slow service. When my food finally came out over an hour later, they literally brought 2 items out of maybe 10 I ordered. Everything else they were out of an hour after I ordered, 5 minutes after opening. HOW does this happen??? I didn't have to pay for my single ribeye and Mac and cheese which is the only somewhat not negative factor but I didn't get anything else I ordered either. Pretty beyond disappointed. I was incredibly calm and polite, even asking how I can prevent this in the future. Zero suggestions from waitress or manager who aggressively grabbed the receipt off the table and went elsewhere in tears. I gather somehow this was a really bad day for them? But I have no idea how I don't get screwed in the future either when I rsvp'd. Maybe I'll have to try to go by phone next time and ask if they're sure they have everything. The Mac n cheese thank god was tasty. Garlicky flavor throughout. The ribeye was big and heavy but god it was tough.

I've never had baked beans quite like these before. They were SO good! I love discovering great local businesses when I travel, and this was such a great find. I would definitely recommend stopping by, and whatever you order, don't skip the baked beans!

The menu is a small placard by the truck window and not everything is available all the time but the guy at the window was friendly walking us through everything. We ended up getting the jerk chicken combo and a rib dinner. Each meal comes with 2 sides and all together it came out to $32. We sat in our car for maybe 7-8 mins then he waved at us when our food was ready. I'll echo the other reviewers and say the star of the show was definitely the jerk chicken which the meal comes with a thigh and drumstick (along with 5-6 rib tips). The chicken was juicy, tender, and had a tasty allspice crust but no real habanero heat. The rib tips and ribs we got in our other meal were just OK. They did have a great smoke flavor, weren't too dry, and were meaty but you definitely had to bite the meat off the bone. The texture was probably half-way between grilled and fall off the bone tender. They do come pre-sauced with a KC-style BBQ sauce that was good but nothing really stood out about it. The 6 ribs in the meal came uncut which did make eating in the car awkward because they didn't include a knife in the bag. As for the sides, the boiled cabbage was a surprising winner as it was served in a savory and slightly spicy broth. The mac and cheese and baked beans were otherwise pretty standard as well. Overall the meal was decent but pretty forgettable aside from maybe the jerk chicken but you're probably not stopping at a BBQ place because you're craving Jamaican.

The second time I was so disappointed with the Meat Loaf, but the greens and candied yams were good. That meat Loaf was TERRIBLE. It had no green pepper or onion and it was mixed with soooo much bread and it looked so nasty. No I did not eat it, was'nt any fixing that thick, what ever it was, YUCK! The Third Time I reluctantly went because every restaurant was closed on 185th, so I took a chance and I brought a friend with me, which was his first time eating kreshaw's food. We both order the beef pot roast, blackeye peas, and cabbage. my friend told the person who took our order to "impress me with the food so I can come back." He paid for 2 meals, $44.00. We were soooo disappointed because The pot roast and blackeye peas was soooo salty and no real flavor but the cabbage was good. I was afraid to eat the roast and blackeye peas because it was so salty, so I added water and ate some and put the rest in the fridge. I wish I could get my money back. Needless to say my friend is NOT going back. YUCK. I'm CRINGING, kreshsaw. seriously, cringing and i want my money back and i will give you back your over salted and over priced food. PS: The Jamaican Restaurant, a few doors up from kreshaw's, food is MUCH MUCH BETTER and HALF THE PRICE of kreshaw's. I wish the Jamaican Restaurant y were open on Sundays. Im not settling anymore and I want my money back. Thank YOU

I come from CA, so kbbq is very popular and abundant out there. I've had it for many years at many places. Here i drove an hour to try this place because it had great reviews. I see now they're rated well most likely because many may not know better. Keep in mind I'm used to CA prices (which are very high compared to most of the U.S.), but this place in Solon is VERY overpriced. A rip off honestly. Sides were not all you can eat, you get 2 refills then they charge $1 for each tiny side you order. They charge $40 a person's for "all you can eat" but they only have 9 items to pick from??!! In CA pay literally half the price and the quality and taste of the meat is far, far better and the selection can go up to 40 choices of meat/entrees. We decided to not order all you can eat because the selection was so sad. Plus we really wanted beef bulgogi which wasn't even offered on the all you can eat menu. Seriously??!! We decided instead to just try a single order of beef bulgogi as a single order sinxe thats all they offered. We figured if it was good we could order more and still pay less than all you can eat prices for meat we don't want. So glad we did! Because the bulgogi did not taste good, and that put the final nail in the coffin for us. Thank goodness we didn't waste anymore money there. My wife even commented, "this meat tastes weird. Is it even cow?" And let's talk about the portion. Oh my gosh, we were shocked. $33 for an order of Bulgogi was ourageous. Besides, the taste was terrible and the portion was half the size! We literally visited California last week to visit family for a week, and I went to H Mart (local, popular Korean store) and purchased bulbogi for a big BBQ. I literally got quality, amazing, delicious meat for $29 and it was double the portion size of this place. They had the same Soju and Blackberry Wine we had before and like. Normally we paid $14 for the wine bottle, anx that's CA prices. Here they charge a whopping $22 for the exact same thing. They have a time limit of 90 minutes to eat which I've never heard of before, and it was funny because the restaurant was literally empty except for me and my wife. Good thing we only stayed 30 minutes. They gave us no napkins. I had to look around the restaurant and take some tiny cocktail napkins since we rarely saw our server. No brisket sauce offered either. And no rice paper offered. Different, disappointing, but not the worst especially compared to everything else. Service was the same as CA, that is to say either non existent and/or not pleasant. But in CA, people usually put up with that because the food is so good and it's all you can eat. My wife summed it up perfectly. She said that's what you get when you have no competition and no one knows better taste and quality exists. We quickly ate the little food we had so we don't waste food but even more than that we wanted to finish quickly so we could leave and find food elsewhere because we were so hungry! We drove an hour just to try the place and we're starving. It will be my mission to explore Ohio for a delicious kbbq place I can enjoy and point people to so no one ever again has to waste their money at gogi end bbq. 1/5

Because of that experience, we came in with high expectations and were really excited. At first, I liked this restaurant for its cleanliness and cute decor. The overall ambiance gave a very pleasant first impression. However, my experience today was quite disappointing. I was not satisfied with the service or the food quality. When the server brought us to our table, she seated us at the front near the entrance by the snack corner. We asked if we could move to a table in the back, but she told us those tables were for non-bbq guests. We were okay with that and stayed. However, shortly after, we saw other parties being seated in the back and eating KBBQ. That felt inconsistent and honestly disappointing. We ordered the yookhwe (beef tartare) bibimbap ($20.95), the Korean beef BBQ combo for two ($119.99), prime rib ($44.95), and makgeolli. Honestly, the portions were lot smaller than I expected for the price. Brisket only came with 6 thick pieces and galbi came with 9 to 12 pieces depending on how you cut them. The last straw was just seeing 10 small pieces of prime rib. As for the taste, it was decent but not the best. The banchan, doenjang jjigae, and steamed egg were good, but the beef was tough and hard to chew. The sauce on the marinated galbi actually hardened like candy after grilling and stuck to my teeth and the plate. We cooked most of our meat ourselves, which we didn't mind, but it seemed like our server was busy with other tables. Overall, I was disappointed and probably won't be back. If you've never had KBBQ, it might still be worth (?) a try considering for the authentic experience, but I don't think the service, portions or quality make it worth the price.
