We are craving some BBQ and decided to stop by Pop's Smoke shed. My partner was a little nervous at first because the place didn't smell "smoky". Well, the food tastes amazing! I highly recommend the Mac bowl with burnt ends. Our waitress is lovely and very friendly. Will go back!

Excellent! I tried the sampler platter which comes with brisket, pulled pork, baby back ribs and 1/4 chicken- you get a little bit of everything. I am surprised to say but the chicken was hands down the best! Super juicy and had the perfect smokey flavor and paired really great with the Louisana Hot & Spicy sauce! They also have a really great beer selection with local craft beers on tap. Service was great!

Menu June 2025. BBQ sauces are grocery store brands.

Nice restaurant. Not the best bbq but it hit the spot after a long hot day. Got the fried pickles and they came straight right of the fryer. Very good. The burger is really good. Nice thick burger cooked to medium with a good sauce. Nicely dressed. The brisket was on the fatty end and it came out with only a little thing if sauce. Ask for more right at the start. Staff was really friendly and it was nice and peaceful with good AC.

Nana puddin' after a few bites!

BBQ Heaven in Big Pine Key! Pops Smoke Shed BBQ is an absolute gem! Hands down, some of the best BBQ I've ever had -- tender, smoky, and packed with flavor. The variety of house-made sauces was a real treat, from bold Kansas City Classic, Memphis Sweet to Carolina Tangy Gold, Louisiana Hot & Spicy, and Mississippi Honey -- there's something for every BBQ lover. Portions are no joke, so come hungry -- this is not a place for lightweights! Every bite was satisfying, and our server couldn't have been friendlier or more attentive. The Southern hospitality here is real. Whatever you do, don't skip dessert. Mimi's banana pudding is the perfect creamy, nostalgic finish, and their pecan pie is downright heavenly. If you're anywhere near Big Pine Key, make this your BBQ stop -- you won't regret it!

We stopped in for dinner during our trip with a large group. The food was very salty and nothing to really write home about. The service was great; we just wish the food had been on par. On Tuesdays, they give a discount for locals. Also, don't park in front of the stairs like this idiot.

Pulled pork, mac and cheese, coleslaw, potato salad

Last minute decision to stop here for lunch, it was 10/10. The food was delicious, service was fast and great! The Mac and cheese was amazing!

Mac and cheese bowl with BBQ Brisket.

We stopped for lunch and had the amazing macaroni and cheese bowl with brisket and deep fried pickles. Our food was delicious and Leah was the best waitress EVER! We would definitely come back if we are in the area.

The best! Not the most healthy lol but worth every bite!

We got the fries, covered with Mac n cheese, pork, jalepenos, golden bbq sauce....AMAZING !!

4 Meat Sampler
Lee N.

Stop by this place for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. My husband and I got the 4 Sampler Platter that came with 2 rolls, 2 sides, and 4 meats (ribs, chicken, brisket, and pulled pork). We ask the server (who was an absolutely friendly and helpful) if it was large enough for us to share and she said more than enough that you'd probably need a to go box (we did ). Ranking of the meats from our fave first. Pulled pork was seasoned, flavorful, and plentiful. Next up is the chicken (we got white meat). Juicy and smoked to perfection. Then we have the ribs (4 pieces). It wasn't fall off the bone but it was the right type of tender. Flavor was good but definitely try their sauces on them! Finally the brisket (4 pieces). This was a bit dryer than the other meats but was still flavorful. I just wish it was a bit more juicier (personal choice). We had the fries and potato salad as our sides and they were okay. The place was quaint, clean, with a chill vibe. I'd definitely go again when I head down to Key West again.

Excellent food, reasonable prices, great service and friendly staff. Highly recommend. Will be back for sure.

Pop's BBQ Nachos

The food was absolutely amazing. The staff were top notch and we really enjoyed the conversation. They took the time to make it a really good experience. I highly recommend.

Food Truck

Amazing BBQ, the best in the keys. The BBQ Nachos are incredible with brisket. Some days they have burnt ends but I haven't been able to try them yet. This location is in Big Pine, has decent amount of shaded seating, got to see a key deer close by too. The service was great, really kind people who know the menu extensively. They have locations at Rockland key and North Roosevelt in Key West.

Can't come to Key West without stopping in to get some of the best tacos on the island at Garbo's…read more It's always just been a food truck but they now have a small patio seating area next to Hanks Hair of the Dog bar. We got one order of the Cayo fish tacos to share. Each order comes with two tacos. We chose a bench in the shade on the patio where some chickens were wandering around picking up bits of food dropped by the patrons. It was fun to watch them run in a group when one spotted something had fallen. Our tacos were ready quickly and after the first bite we immediately regretted not getting a table because they are a bit messy with all the delicious toppings. Oh well! I persevered and used a napkin to soak up the juice and the chickens took care of of the rest. I will never miss an opportunity to visit Garbo's when in Key West.

I am giving Garbo's Grills four stars overall. The food was solid and tasty, and it hit the spot…read morefor what I was craving. While it was enjoyable, nothing really stood out as extraordinary or memorable. The menu had a good variety, and the service was friendly enough, making it a comfortable place to stop for a casual meal. The atmosphere was straightforward and unpretentious, which made it easy to enjoy a quick bite without any fuss. Portions were reasonable, and prices were fair for the quality of food. Overall, it is a dependable spot for a casual meal when you are nearby, even if it does not leave a lasting impression. It is worth visiting if you are in the area and looking for something simple and satisfying.

Despite the overall rating this place has, the food was pretty good! Fresh seafood, we had 4…read moredifferent kinds of oysters, scallops on the half shell (small but good), some sushi rolls, some pulled pork, the crab cake sandwich, onion rings and more. All really good. Service was friendly but slow and plates arrived haphazardly, while we had to ask for plates and flatware. Nice scene with outdoor covered eatery and live music performer who entertained the crowd too! Mini golf next door was also fun and offered a 10% discount on the meal. All in all a nice way to spend a half day or so.

We kind of came here on a whim from good word of mouth. We were all thinking BBQ but we ended up…read moreordering seafood & sushi instead! I loved the vibe of this place - think tiki bar with a beachside vibe and setting but then also a BBQ joint thrown in for good measure. The menu is extensive - BBQ, seafood, sushi, bar food, tacos, etc. The menu is huge! The happy hour is pretty good too (speciality drinks for like $8 and decently priced app specials). One very cool thing, this place sits on a marina and my family saw manatees chilling out there. We literally were only a couple feet from them and watched them float around while we are out food. So cool. Live music is offered during most nights. Some advice, get here early because this place fills up fast! I think it is quite the haunt for locals and tourists alike. We would go here again in a heartbeat. The food was pretty good, portions were perfectly sized and prices were very reasonable, especially when compared to other places found in the Florida Keys.
