Gigantic portions, as has been noted here before, but the ribs are just not tender enough. The real problem is the sauce that they use. A bizarre, almost sickly sweet tomato based BBQ sauce that they slather over everything. That's another complaint. If your meat has to be drowned in sauce, you know the quality is poor. I would definitely not eat here again until changes were made to the mop. read more

Best ribs and sauce around. Ribs are tender and thick and cooked over a pit. Sauce is mild , medium, and spicy.

I like the ribs and the sauce. I get the hot sauce.My kind of rib place. Great fibs and sauce.

I went here one evening with my wife. I was immediately impressed by the open pit grill so we ordered a large rack of ribs. We choose the rich and savory sweet sauce. We received our ribs which came on 2 plates with ribs drowned in sauce. Imagine a bowl with sauce and a bit of meat at the bottom. It was simply too much sauce! We also thought the sauce tasted like a sweet spaghetti sauce. we ended up throwing more than half of it away. BUT THE FRIES WERE GOOD... We won't go back. read more

John and Barb deserve 5 stars for service alone. Food is outstanding. Usually go for the woodfired BBQ but went for the fish today. Wow. Everything was oustanding from the huge fish sandwich ( great breading), cheese fresh cut fries, slaw, macaroni and cheese, and hilushki. When I brought home the food today my wife simply said, "they sure know how to cook!" Oh yeah don't forget to try the stuffed banana peppers when John has them. I could go on but just go try it yourself. You wont be disappointed. read more

45 minute wait for 2 items is ridiculous regardless of quality of food. Only five other cars in lot at time.

Yes, portions are huge. The ribs are country ribs and tough. Pulled pork has absolutely no flavor! It left a bad aftertaste! Horrible sauces, tomato based. read more

Really good food. They cook their food over an indoor wood fed fire pit. You get food that tastes like it came off of a campfire. I've had hot dogs and lots of other things done over the fire. I live less than half a mile away and the smells of the food cooking are awesome. They make their own sauces which are out of this world. The wait time can be a little long. But it's worth it. read more

All time favorite BBQ. The sauce is so different and amazing. Sweet and tangy is to die for! My husband and I love coming here, and have tried just about everything, and it makes it so hard to choose what to get. Whether it's eating in, or take out we've always had a great experience. Our toddler son even loves it too. Cannot pass up the delicious cole slaw with dinner, and the fresh cut cheese fries. Now, every time my parents come for dinner we know what we're getting. Cannot wait for the next time we order! read more

Food was not only good,but OMG the portions are huge!!!! The only thing that keeps me from giving 5 stars is the 10 min wait for them to run the credit card. Apparently, they have to share the main phone line with the credit card machine. read more

Had a delicious sampler with a chop and hot sausage,fries and slaw. Everything was suberb. Your sweet and spicy sauce is delicious. Lick the Styrofoam from all sides. New customer, a definite again. read more

If you don't like BBQ sauce that has a tomato paste base, then you will not like the BBQ here. It makes everything taste like its covered in slightly doctored up pizza sauce. Not a fan. I would easily give this place a 4, even 5 star review if they changed or just offered a different style of sauce. read more

I eat here almost every Friday. I get a half slab of ribs with extra hot sauce. Delicious! They also have the best french fries, Remind me of the ones at the potato patch in Kennywood. Ribs are cooked over an open fire with the perfect smokey flavor. Every time I drive by this place I have to roll my windows down just to catch that smokey meaty flavored aroma wafting up on the road. If you are looking for a great rib dinner and the you do not smell a great wood fire flavored by sizzling meats in the parking lot get back in your car and drive to the Rib Cage! read more

There was absolutely no flavor to the food at all. The meat tasted like it was boiled and had no seasoning whatsoever. The reviews for this place were so great so we ordered a full rack of ribs, wings, and a porkchop. We got takeout and when we got home, we were so disappointed. Some of the ribs were tender and some were too hard to cut with a knife. The sauce tasted like spicy ketchup...I don't get how other reviewers like it. The wings and porkchop were cooked decently but again, no flavor at all. Save your $40 and spend $12 on Giant Eagle Ribs instead. Sad, but true. read more

Portions are ginormous. Plenty of meat on the chops. Not impressed with the ribs although they are huge. Wife said the pulled pork was "alright". BBQ sauce is tomato based, which we did not like. Fourth St BBQ is still my favorite in the Mon Valley! read more
