    Hard plastic from potato salad.
    Myah D.

    I ordered this place for the first time on Valentine's Day to try something new with my boyfriend. We were enjoying our meal until my boyfriend pulled out this HARD piece of plastic in his potato salad. It was not only hard but sharp. The people were extremely nice inside however that doesn't cover up finding hard plastic in your food. I'm glad he didn't ingest it or get hurt but this sucks especially after leaving a solid tip. I would have loved to of reported this on the website but I didn't see that as an option so i'm making this post. Not the greatest first impression. :/

    Really good bbq! The brisket was moist and fell apart. No fork no knife needed!! The sauce was flavorful and balanced. The ribs were very tasty with a sweet finish. I shared my meal with my loved one and we both had a good amount to share. Big portions of Mac n cheese and loaded potato salad. Oh and a few mini cornbread muffins to top it off (: we will be back for more. Thanks my 4 sons bbq

    Mac n cheese Pulled pork

    I've driven past My 4 Sons BBQ many times and have always wanted to try it. Luckily I was in the neighborhood with a friend and BBQ was on the menu that night. Came by Friday around 6 pm and the place had steady business. Had to wait in line for about 10 mins because this is a popular place. Got to the ordering counter & decided on the chicken plate with two sides, broccoli salad and baked potato salad. My friend got 1/4 lb of pulled pork and side of mac n cheese. We decided to dine in at one of the four tables. After we got our order we sat down and dug in. The chicken was peppered and smoked and delicious. Love the broccoli salad! My friend enjoyed her pulled pork and mac n cheese. Watched wave after wave of people come in and get their dinner. I will be back again for burnt ends and some beef!

    Stopped in last week for a pound of Brisket, Half rack of Ribs, and tub of Potato Salad...they had a little line when I arrived with 4/5 people in front of me the system is quick and efficient. Was in and out with my food in 10 minutes. Brisket, Ribs and Potato Salad was consistent as always.

    1/2 rack of ribs, 1 lb brisket, 1/2 lb burnt tips, 1/2 lb pulled pork, sides are all a small

    Finally a BBQ spot that's memorable and that I will for sure come back to! Ordered online, came inside to pick up and was surprised to see what a wide selection of beers and ciders they had for being a smaller restaurant. Only $100 for my order, tax and 20% tip included! Compared to other bbq I've had, I feel like this is such a steal for all I got AND for such great food. 1/2 rack of ribs, 1 lb brisket, 1/2 lb burnt tips, 1/2 lb pulled pork, 8 mini cornbreads, small potato salad, cole slaw, beans, and broccoli salad. The brisket and burnt ends are an absolute must and all the sides were too good for me to ever choose just two sides. The cole slaw and broccoli salad were so fresh and not covered in dressing but still soooo good. When I came to pick up, the customer before me was just ordering for herself but got a large container of the broccoli salad and I totally get why! Thank you 4 Sons for an awesome meal!

    Tried this BBQ spot for the first time today and honestly had a really good experience! The baked beans were pretty good--personally I think they could've been cooked just a little longer, but still tasty. My boyfriend got the broccoli salad and LOVED it (he's a big fan of broccoli and coleslaw, so it was basically a two-in-one win for him). Both barbecue sauces were amazing, but we both agreed the spicy one takes the crown. The pulled pork sandwich was a little on the dry side, so we definitely put that sauce to work--but even then, it was still pretty solid. The atmosphere was great and everyone working was super nice. Definitely a place we'd try again!

    Food: amazing! The burnt ends and brisket literally melted in our mouth. No joke. I wanted more and more even when my stomach communicated I had enough. Broccoli Salad - Shut the Front Door!!!! this is addictive. Service: was kind and gracious. Ambiance: it's a rib joint.

    I ordered the brisket plate which comes with 2 sides, mac & cheese, and pickles which were both really good! The pickles were super flavorful, and the Mac was good Mac. Brisket was delicious but I'd probably order on a bigger scale. Also I drank a jones soda which is the cherry on top. Service was good, and a small seating area. Ultimately a great lunch spot if you're in the mood for a barbecue place!

    Decent BBQ on Portland Avenue with fair prices. Limited seating--best for to-go orders. Sweet tea was on point for me.

I got the red snapper which I've always wanted to try and it was everything I expected it to be.. wish it was in the menu permanently. Hoping it comes back!

Parking is tough but the parking in front of the bank next to Asado's is a $5 fee and a short walk away. It was buzzing as soon as we walked in. The seating is one where you are seated close, next to others. Family style. Helps with meeting new people. They are the bar height tables which I'm not a fan of because I'm short. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Once the food came out, we were ready. We had the coconut greens. They were tender and flavorful it was different from what I'm familiar to but delicious nonetheless. Next were the green bean pakoras. I loved it. My only thing is that there was so much batter it almost overtook the beans. The beef kabobs were DELISH, tender and flavorful. For entrees, we decided to share because that was a lot of food. Lamb chops was the entree of choice. It came with cheesy grits. The grits were a bit watery for me but the flavors were amazing. I love their seasonal menus they come out with. Gives me a reason to come back. It was a great pre funk to our comedy date night. We shall return. Thank you Grann restaurant (Jacob and Denzel)
