    I finished the meal satisfied but not impressed it was filling but didn't leave a strong memory

    the place was comfortable staff friendly food came fast but the experience felt standard nothing remarkable

    Dude with the Beard was Fantastic, Amazing customer service, I ordered an Elvis platter and got it within five minutes everything on it was absolutely delicious. If you enjoy barbeque this is the spot for you.

    Combo platter- yummy ribs
    Donna B.

    A very cool spot. Lots of parking in the area and its tucked a little ways into the area. With two entrances and a patio, and quite a bit of seating inside I wouldn't worry about finding a place to sit. We did notice there seemed to only be one guy doing all the cooking and so our food was a bit slow to come out. We ordered the nachos to start- with pulled pork on top they were very tasty and I'm glad we ordered them up first. Some other items we ordered an dour thoughts: cat fish salad- very good and 2 tasty sauces to compliment. Rib tip sandwich- wasn't enjoyed as much. Soup of the day and cornbread- very tasty and a little spicy gave it a nice kick. Cornbread- a delight. Combo platter- the ribs had such a nice sauce with a molasses taste and the meat just fell off the bones. They did have some unique beers as well which was a nice treat. Cool items to look at around the venue itself- hilarious meat pun shirts, a giant guitar on the ceiling, etc it helped to keep us entertained. All in all a neat and worthwhile place to check out order their platters in. We have done that before in the past and we enjoyed the platters from home.

    Feast platter!

    Shared the feast ($55) which was every type of meat and sides....it says it serves 2-3 and I'm pretty sure it could serve double that and still be very satisfying. We had leftovers for days! The sides: 1) potato salad, which I didn't love since all I could taste was salt, but my dining companions liked it. 2) corn bread was very dry and boring - we actually left these on the plate. 3) coleslaw was ok, with thick cut cabbage and lots of dressing. 4) fries had a really great seasoning and were hot and crispy. Meats: 1) ribs were tender but still had a bit of bite, which I really liked since I don't love them super soft and falling off the bone. 2) chicken which came out in two large quarters - very tender and moist. 3) pulled pork was my favourite and smoky tasting. 4) rib ends were good; basically half the size of regular ribs. 5) brisket was very tender and flavourful. 6) sausage was delicious and not too salty or fatty - we really liked it! The platter came with a portion of BBQ sauce which tasted a bit sweet and a bit smoky. There was a bottle on the table of a spicier but less flavourful sauce. We mixed them together and it was perfect! It's a bit of a self serve place where you order at the counter, then sit down. There is a station with take out containers to pack things up yourself. Service was friendly but pretty hands off. I'd go back for the sausage and the pulled pork - those were by far my favourites.

    Why is good BBQ so hard to find in town? On a friend's recommendation, we decided to check out Memphis Blues Barbeque House's newest location waaaaaaaay up on the north side. They have two other locations (Milwoods and Sherwood Park), which I've never been to or heard of until now. They claim to be authentic, southern style barbeque house. We dropped by for lunch on a sunny Thursday and the place had a few tables occupied. Looks like a lot of construction workers drop by for take-out. They're located in the same strip mall area as Halong Bay Noodle House. The inside is clean and spacious with two doors/ways to get into the restaurant. The menu is split mainly into sandwiches, meals and platters. Holy jeebus, the platters are expensive. $179.95 for the Priscilla platter, that better feed a kingdom! Having just ate at MEAT the day before (BBQ back to back just happened), I was hoping for their authentic claims to ring true. - Calamari po'boy ($12.95) - comes with one side (choice of BBQ pit beans, slaw or fries). We went with fries for our po'boy. The calamari portion looked meager but it was tasty. I wish they warmed up and toasted the bun though. Small, simple things like that would make things so much better. The fries weren't anything special as it lacked any real crispy texture. - Barbeque chicken meal ($18.95) - came with corn bread, BBQ pit beans, slaw and choice of potato salad or fries (we went with potato salad). The portion of BBQ chicken was quite generous with a mix of wings, drumsticks and thighs. The smaller pieces were flavourful and tender but once we go to the bigger pieces (aka. the white meat), it was another story. The meat was dry. Gross. Nowhere near being authentic. The sides were hit and miss - corn bread was SUPER dry (Super Dry) and tasteless, pit beans were decent but the slaw and potato salad was a bit better. Overall, Memphis Blues was okay but I can't see myself going back anytime soon. The meat was dry and everything just screams mediocre-ness. True, I didn't try everything a la meat sampler style, but from what we ate, I get the it's your typical average Edmonton restaurant.

    Worst Cat Fish I have ever had. Neither the misses or I was impressed. Just seemed plain and forgettable. Not a place we would return to.

Went last Saturday to catch a friend's band play, and I'm so happy I did! It was a gorgeous day-- perfect for a patio sit, and lots of folks were all there for the same purpose, so it was super relaxed and chill. Our server, Mandy, was unrufflable and funny. The perfect server. The manager, David, is really great. Friendly and super welcoming, considering I'd only been once before. I noticed that he was attempting to change out the sandwich board for the band, so asked if I could help (ex art major, with a lot of typography experience). He was happy to let me. So that was fun. :) I had a couple beers and the Italian sausage flatbread pizza. OMG! SO good! And the prices were perfectly respectable. Definitely planning to make this place a regular stop on my relaxing/drinking/socializing rounds now.
