We always stop at Rib Crib when we are visiting family in Kansas. This time we ordered carry out for our family dinner. The order wasn't ready when we got there but we didn't mind waiting. When we got home we unloaded our bags and realized there was no BbQ sauce or any buns. My husband had to drive back to the store where they gave him only 1 container of BBQ sauce but we had ordered 8lbs of meat. Not impressed with the staff at all. Will probably try Hog Wild next time instead.lots of parking available in the lot and drive thru at this location. Sliced Brisket Pulled Pork Baked Beans read more

Place is in a great location but the Meats are too dried. Not enough flavors. Ordered $140 worth of food and was not what I expected. Service is good. Everyone is kind. Other than that it was okay. read more

Very expensive for what you get compared to other surrounding BBQ restaurants. Almost $30 for a two meat meal. The

My food was amazing. I came in just wanting a nice solo meal to get away from the home life. The host was amazing and my server Steven was Absoloutly so welcoming to me. My food was out quickly and it tasted so amazing! My booth was so comfortable and the feel of the restaurant was just so southern! If any manager is seeing this please pass along my regards to Steven for being the best server I have ever had and I hope to return soon for my daughter's birthday! 5 Stars! read more

I am unlikely to return to Rib Crib anymore. We have been visiting this location for many years and never have any complaints about the quality of food or the employees. My complaint is that the portion size is simply too small. I ordered a 2 meat combo and am paying ~20 dollars for this. I dont feel the portion is enough to satisfy me personally and this is not a value at all. I did ask the manager on site about this and was told the portions are weighed out individually and that the ribs will always be less because of the weight of the bones adding up. I wasnt offered any type of resolution, only an answer to why the portion was the size I recieved. Sorry RibCrib. I wont keep paying for unsatisfying meals. read more

RibCrib BBQ - Brisket is visibly dry same with the turkey. The service was really good but the food was old for sure. - Barbeque Near Me - Derby, Kansas

Big secret no one seems to know about, this place has the best burger in town! The backed beans are a perfect side.

Ordered to go... Giving 2 stars because the cowboy beans were decent. Potato salad, coleslaw and mac and cheese all tasted like they were spooned out of a bulk container from a grocery store, seriously terrible. Ordered a 1/2 lb of sliced fatty brisket and 7 St Louis ribs. Received lean flat, dry as hell and chalky. The ribs may have been decent and not as dry if my food didn't sit on the counter for 20 minutes while the high school girls greeting at the front desk stood gossiping. Both meats were supposed to be Catolina sauced... never had reddish brown carolina sauce before ‍ But at least they tried to cover the error with a tub of true carolina sauce in the bag. A for effort there. Sad excuse for BBQ and service. If this is what KC bbq is about I'm glad I live in TN. read more

I wanted to thank Tyler, manager, and his team for going above and beyond yesterday. We had a death in the family and needed to get some food to the house so they didn't need to worry about that. Tyler made recommendations and was extremely helpful. Food was on time and delicious! Thanks for going the extra mile to make this happen. I know my family will be back very soon. read more

Had 14 for lunch this week and on the spur of the moment I called Rib Crib in Derby, KS and they set up a table and it was ready when we arrived about 10 mins later. The server was very attentive and courteous and took great care of us. Only one small issue with our 14 meals and she took care of it immediately. (Cheeseburger wasn't cooked properly and there was no cheese). The smoked chicken is the bomb! read more

What a cluster. First, they now charge $22.99 for a brisket dinner. They call it "market price" but of course, that isn't on the menu...it's on some chalkboard on the front desk. I called in for a carry out and the was no mention of "market price" which is higher than the price on their menu. I questioned Tyler, the manager on duty, he said...it's on the this board! They also now charge for 99 cents for each extra salad dressing!!!! Unbelievable. To top it off, they gave me the wrong order, when I took it back, the same snarky Tyler avoided me and made some poor young guy handle the foul up. It took 15 more minutes, clearly they never made the order in the first place. When it finally came out, there was no Okra on my $63 order...but I still had my extra 99 cent ranch dressing but no okra to did in it!! What an epic fail! By the way, I have never written a yelp review. That's how bad they are. read more

Ate lunch with a group of 8 other adults. The restaurant was virtually empty when we arrived before noon on a weekday. Drinks were ordered and delivered- but no raspberry syrup for raspberry sweet tea was available. We ordered, and several minutes went by when the waitress came to notify us that brisket was unavailable. A barbecue restaurant that touts its brisket has none? Meaning that anyone coming in this day will not be able to order brisket. Orders had to be changed because several people had ordered brisket. Pulled pork was substituted. The order took at least 20 minutes to be delivered in a nearly empty restaurant. The spuds ordered by several were not even warm enough to melt the butter. Seems as if management needs to change here. There is no reason for a major part of the menu to be unavailable. The barbecue sauces at the table were nearly empty. There also no reason that an order should take so long to be served considering we were virtually alone in the restaurant. Our waitress did the best she could under the circumstances. I had a chicken salad that was very tasty- but didn't need to be served warm like the potatoes. Overall a very disappointing experience. read more

My husband and I regularly enjoy the Tuesday all you can eat ribs. Last night was the first time I truly regretted that choice. The first ribs that came out were so over cooked they were black and very tough. We told the waiter and his response was I will get you another rack. That one came out almost as overcooked as the first. It was absolutely not acceptable for a BBQ restaurant to serve ribs like that. Even after complaining about the second rack. All we got is "I'm sorry you don't like them!?!" Really? We will not be back. read more

Food was very good, the rib literally fell off the bone! Service was friendly and quick. I would definitely recommend this place and go back! read more

The smoked turkey was an overly processed chuck of turkey parts. On the upside, we found out just after ordering that our timeline had changed and they were quick to make our order to go. read more

We're visiting for the weekend from KC. So, we decided to try a bbq place of course! Unfortunately, the food is just high priced cafeteria food. The bbq is dry, even the beans. The sides are very basic. The service was good, though! read more

Fast service and delicious bbq. In and out within an hour at 12:00 on a Saturday. I've yet to have a bad experience at this location.

I came in for some ribs because I am pregnant and honestly was just craving them. I'm from out of town so I decided to stop in to just grab my food. I was immediately met with an awful hostess named Bree. She basically looked at me like I was trash. Looked me up and down and laughed at me, didn't say greet me or anything.. just handed me a menu. I then heard her laughing with another worker about me, as if she wasn't talking loud enough she was also pointing. She was awful and made me insecure the whole time, wouldn't be surprised if she spit in my drink when i went to the bathroom. You guys should really get warmer employees who don't make your guests feel extremely uncomfortable. read more

Food is okay, couple times we went there food was cold. Not the best burger in town. Staff was friendly and I like the look and feel of the restaurant. Little pricey for what you get but not the worst. read more

I have learned that this place is a 50/50 shot at getting your food done right when you dine here.Its to inconsistent with the food they serve and it's like flipping a coin.If they could just Do it right 80% of the time I would come back more but they don't it's just 50% of the time.So I will go somewhere else. Ribs are usually over cooked Green beans have zero flavor Coleslaw is served warmed Burgers are always over cooked Mashed potatoes are bland Seasoned Fries ? Put some seasoning in the potatoes and they won't be bland! Service is slow waiters waitresses are always jacking with phones Hostess are far and few as Waiters/Waitresses seem to be seating people which in turn takes more time to do there job with customers sitting at tables. Management Needs To Fix These Issues! read more

We arived at 14:22 and were seated immediately. Our waitress was fun and friendly. She had plenty of menu suggestions when asked and knows the menu well. The food arrived quickly and was cooked well and flavorful but dry. It required sauce to be abpe to eat it. I prefer a moist BBQ that does not need sauce. The mashed potatos were excellent! read more

Outstanding comes to mind when I think of Rib Crib. Tuesday is all-you-can-eat ribs and sides. We go at least once a month. St. Louis style, delicious, mouth watering sauces to squirt on makes for good eats! The onion rings are good! read more

I would give a negative review if possible.... We used to dine here quite often, but due to Covid we hadn't been in a sit down restaurant in 17 months. So on June 21st 2021, we went in for a very much anticipated evening meal. Now, the staff is great, very informed and quick on service. Our problem came when we received our meal. I was and still am shocked at the four ribs that were maybe 5 inches long and mostly fat. The sides I got were good. I also received one slice of TX toast and slice of pickle. Now this in itself is a decent meal, but my shock was/is the price $16.00!! When I spoke to the wait staff, I was told that that's what you get! I will not be back at all!. read more

Very disappointed with the chopped brisket and pulled pork. Meat was not fresh and tasted at least two days old. We usually eat at the ridge road location and the difference between the two restaurants is day and night. We will never be eating at the derby location again. A waste of $65! read more

Good size portions very meaty ribs nice atmosphere good prices overall couldn't be any better

Let me start this off by saying that the sides served with our all-you-can-eat rib meals were great. They were hot and delicious, but considering this eatery is named Rib Crib, I think they should have more pride in them. I work for a state-centric article company, and I've eaten at so many of Kansas' barbecue joints, it's crazy. This one was a big letdown, and we weren't even there during a rush! Back to the ribs. The first four plates of them brought out were all cold. The last order we had were the only warm ones, and the only ones that weren't rock hard and bone dry. We had to specifically ask for ribs that had meat on them and were warm. On top of that, our waiter, though I have forgotten his name, had multiple other tables he was also neglecting. He'd come by and ask if we needed anything, bring back four more ribs for the two of us, and then go stand in a corner for the next ten to fifteen minutes unless he'd gotten another table. It was honestly pretty strange. Maybe we offended him by asking for ribs with meat on them that weren't burnt to a crisp? All in all, I wouldn't put this in one of my "Great Barbecue In Kansas" articles, and I wouldn't even put it on a personal list for "try again" but we will try the other location another time, and hope for better. read more

This is a good BBQ place. Everyone enjoyed their food. The smoked turkey and sausage were my favorites. Dessert was Peach Cobbler. Get it with the ice cream. read more

You can not go wrong with eating here! The service was very good and food was even better! I would definitely recommend this to anyone!

awesome food but they need to fix their online ordering button it leads you back to their location page the same with their delivery button. I would love to order online or delivery if I could. read more

I ordered the two meat combo and The Big Catch Combo. For the two meat combo, I had the sliced brisket and hot links. Personally I felt the brisket was extremely dry. I liked The Big Catch Combo much more - my ribs were not very moist but it was still ok, the fried catfish was pretty good. Overall flavors were ok, but the extremely dried briskets left me with a bad impression. read more

I love Rib Crib and make the drive from NW Wichita to Derby several times a month to eat it. The service is always amazing - the food comes out quick - and it tastes amazing! I can't wait to win the lottery and open one in West Wichita! read more

Rib Crib is convenient for us as Derby residents. But we really go because the food is consistently, reliably good. I know I'll enjoy my meal when I come here. My favorite is their sliced chicken dinner with their coleslaw (which I especially like). My honey usually gets a triple-meat combos; pulled pork, smoked sausage, and brisket with their baked beans (which he especially likes). The servers are mostly high school kids and are very friendly and competent. If you want to indulge in an after dinner treat, I recommend their peach cobbler! read more

As a benefit of a doubt, along with being BBQ aficionados via having been to some of the very best BBQ places in America, we went there for the first time last night, and will not be returning. Seems some of the negative remarks are still spot on, such as mediocre food (the meats were dry and tasteless), and way over-priced for the quality (especially), and quantity, of which could be more substantial providing the food was better. Then there's the BBQ Sauce, which combines both high levels of High-Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS), and Corn Syrup Sucrose - a Mono-Sodium Glutamate (MSG) equivalent concoction which is meant to enhance flavors - unacceptable. So, last night was our first visit, and last. From now on when we want good BBQ, we'll just fire up the grill in our back yard, or go to KC, both of which are unquestionably superior to what this so-called BBQ place called The Rib Crib has to offer. Update - 12 FEB 2016: Went to the new Hog Wild in Derby, and their food is far better than that served at The Rib Crib (1 Star on their best day). Plus, their portions are bigger, and the entrees are less expensive than The Rib Crib's as well. Therefore, I give Hog Wild in Derby 3.5 Stars out of 5. read more

When we first arrived at Rib Crib we were seated immediately and our host was very nice and respectful. She guided us to our seats and took our drink and food orders when we were ready. Our food came out very quickly and everything was cooked properly and was delicious. For 3 of us our total came out to be $48.00 which was pretty reasonable for it being a bbq restaurant. The bathrooms were clean as well as the rest of the place. They were good about giving us extra sauces when needed and refilling drinks really quickly. I would definitely recommend this place. It is kid friendly and has different menu options for it being based off bbq. read more

Food: 0/5 Ambience: 1.5/5 Service: 2/5 Dishes tried: Pulled pork, sliced brisket, ribs, cole slaw, bbq beans, and fried okra. When I walked in around noon on a Saturday, there was one occupied table and no one else around. I stood around for a few minutes when a waitress finally told me that I can have a seat anywhere. The place is a little dark inside and is decorated in a way that makes sense for a bbq joint. The restaurant, however, was very dirty. As I walked around looking for a clean table, I noticed plenty of sticky spots on the floor that was sticking to my shoes. Most of the tables looked greasy and bbq sauced. Flies all over the place, you would think that the flies are the true patrons and the people are the pests. I can only imagine how dirty the kitchen might be, but I forced myself to take my mind off of that topic. I finally sat down at the cleanest table I could find and waited another several minutes for that same waitress to bring me a menu. I didn't feel like waiting anymore, so I ordered a bunch of items I saw on their website to try and have leftovers. The ribs were rock hard. There were literally meaty portions that my teeth failed to bite through. I did a bite test on all the other ribs with similar results. The sauce was sweet and spiced, but tasted pretty awful. Needless to say, I did not touch the ribs again. The pulled pork was dry and flavorless. The sliced brisket was, you guessed it, dry and flavorless. Adding bbq sauce to the meats just made them taste sweet and seasoned in a bad way. The fried okra was scorched and flavorless and the cole slaw was soggy and gross. The bbq beans tasted like canned bbq beans, which isn't bad. Not good, but not a disaster like everything else. I ate all the beans and asked for a check. The waitress didn't care that I barely ate anything and that I didn't ask for a box. Sometimes I drive by the restaurant in the evening and see the parking lot packed. I envy people that can find joy in that kind of food... or maybe I just went on a really bad day. Even the best bbq joints have bad days. On second thought, I have never seen that kind of atrocity from any bbq joint on their worst day. That combined with the dirty surroundings and lousy service makes this a trifecta for an unfavorable review. read more
