Some of the best meat in town. The prime rib sandwich is amazing, Roberts smoked meat is to die for. Definitely check out the food truck on MacDill.

Get the rib dinner with fries and another side. The ribs were good. The pork was sliced pork and not pulled pork. I wouldn't get that again. The mac and cheese, coleslaw, and mashed potatoes were ok but I'd try the baked beans or something else as my second side. This is more of a takeout place. There are 2 picnic tables outside that don't have shade.

I have eaten here twice. The first time I ordered the ribs and they were pretty decent. I went back this past Saturday and ordered the brisket....it was awful! What was served to me (for $18 bucks I might add) was closer to shaved cheap deli meat slathered in BBQ sauce. First, I can’t believe they call that brisket but I also can’t believe they charge that much for whatever it was they gave me. I’m from Texas. I know brisket. This was not. It was closer to meat from Arby’s than actual brisket. I felt misled and when I got back home and saw this fake meat they called “brisket” I also felt robbed. I literally felt deceived. $18 bucks for that???!!! You can’t even charge that for award winning brisket!! You need to put a disclaimer on your menu that says this is not real brisket. Very ashamed!

Holy moly! Best brisket, evah! Yum! Great sides! Had the green! Yum! Mac did the job! Folks were the best! Stop for lunch!

I want to shout out to Robert & Melissa for another fabulous BBQ - COVID style! Thank you for packing up the family BBQ when we couldn't get together for our firm BBQ! It is the best food in town!!

Best steak I ever ate. Place looks like a dump but it puts all other restaurants to shame in Tampa. This is a must visit restaurant.

I Had a fantastic fresh grouper sandwich. I do intend to return as I misunderstood the “Cuban Reuben” and I want to give that a try. He cooks with real wood and you can enjoy the natural sweet smoke off the grill as your food cooks. Very satisfying.

Fast service, GREAT brisket, and some pretty good fries and creamy coleslaw.Good portion size for the price too. Will definitely return to try the Grouper sandwich.

Everything thing is delicious! Mark is a awesome person.

We ordered ribs and they were fantastic! I am ordering ribs again for my son's birthday and can't wait to eat this amazing food! The beans were excellent as well! I am so glad a place like this is near my house! Friendly, helpful and courteous people took care of me in person and over the phone! Thanks Robert's!!
