Customer Reviews
We recently visited Rib City. The restaurant was clean, and our waitress was friendly, which made for a nice atmosphere. They had cute decor and clean restrooms. We ordered a rack of baby back ribs with fries, green beans, and mac and cheese. The food wasn’t terrible, but we’ve definitely had better. The ribs were overcooked and tough in some parts, and they lacked the smoky flavor we were hoping for. Honestly, they reminded me of the preseasoned ribs you can buy at the grocery store in a vacuum-sealed pouch. On the bright side, the BBQ sauce itself was really good. The fries were a bit dry and overcooked, the green beans didn’t have much seasoning, and the mac and cheese was mushy and bland.

I love this place. I will alter my route to Texas just to eat here. I've tried a few things on the menu, but the baby back ribs are my favorite. Cooked just right every time. I always sit at the bar. Ice cold beer, friendly bartenders, and friendly locals. The bar area packs out especially in the evenings.
Ordered a one rack of baby ribs that comes with two sides (Mac & cheese and fries) which cost 26.50 USD with tax. Food was nice and server was friendly.
Good food! Nice people great service! Grace was an excellent Bar Tender and Host. Only 1 thing wrong! Tennessee Titans Booo!! ONLY EAGLES!!! LOL all good fun!! Grace recommended the Lunch Special....Baby Back Ribs Mac cheese with green beans!
If I could give this place 0 stars I would give them negative stars!! Worst food I have ever ate tonight from any restaurant!!!! For just the 2 of us (and there was a party of 11!)Just for our 2 meals (Tony’s Combo for both of us) it was $90.00 BOTH racks of baby back ribs was Nasty, Gross, & Very DRY, the 1/4 beef was worse then chewing on a dry sponge, the 1/4 Chicken was dry, only good thing was the side dishes. The 3 margaritas my husband ordered was more mix and ice than actual alcohol. The Bloody Marys was more spice than anything we sent them back. (Sad when my 2 yr old granddaughter got the corn dog kids dinner she took one bite spit it out and said Yuck).. Now on for the service the waitress was horrible, Cups sat empty on our table for long periods of time (No The place wasn’t bu
