Is King’s Ribs Really That Good? : r/indianapolis – Reddit
They’re a solid option and been around a long time but definitely not the best bbq around.

Truthfully if I’m be honest it’s not all that, I got a large tip dinner, chicken on bun, bake beans I never asked for Mac n cheese after I look at my receipt I wasn’t going going go back. I felt like the tips could’ve been better, the chicken on a bun the chicken is good the bun they could’ve put it on the grill with some butter and toast it instead it seems like they grab some cheap buns and just put some chicken on it and call it a day, the mild sauce wasn’t warm on the tips, the bake beans is mediocre, the Mac n cheese is basic. I want be coming back it’s a shame that the food has gotten like this thanks but no thanks I’ll try to find me another local bbq place next time I’m visiting.

Ok i have had enough of this place. The last 3 times i have been here has been terrible. Outside of the food being mid, the service has been just plain bad. Ive had my order wrong several times. The first 2 times i let them know but i let it go… but this last time my order was wrong again and when i actually asked for compensation because i have to come back out in the snow i get bring your food back and we can correct it with again no accountability. Then they hang up on me. I wasnt rude or disrespectful. Just confused and to be honest dissappointed. But i wont make that mistake again and i hope others wont either.

This place cooks like it’s rolling dice with your dinner. One day you’re feasting on heavenly ribs and juicy chicken; the next, you’re gnawing on what might be charcoal’s cousin. The only thing they get right every time? The bread and the sauce — bless those dependable carbs and condiments. Honestly, skip the Russian roulette and just buy the sauce. At least when you burn your own meat, you’ll know who to blame.

First visit here, you can see the smoke coming from the grills out back. The Food was exceptional along with the customer service.
Don’t wait, check them out. We had a party of three and order two rib-tip dinners with Mac and cheese and beans and one chicken ( white meat ) & rib tip dinner with coleslaw and beans. All dinner’s came with a dinner roll. The rib’s were wonderful, sauce was wonderful, beans were wonderful. I didn’t try the coleslaw or the dinner roll. These three meals with tax was under $55.
This is not a sit-down restaurant, drive-thru or walk-up only.
I would recommend trying them for yourself, I believe that you will not be disappointed.

To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing to file a formal complaint about the unacceptable treatment I received at King Ribs today while picking up my DoorDash order. I ordered a large tip, cut thin, with a strawberry Fanta during my lunch break. What should have been a simple and routine pickup turned into one of the most embarrassing customer service experiences I’ve ever had.
When I arrived, I asked the lady at the counter if the ribs were cut thin as requested. She told me yes, but once I opened the container, it was obvious they were not. I brought them back and they attempted to cut them thinner, but they still were not the way they used to be.
I calmly told the young man, “If that’s the thinnest you can get them, I’ll take them.” Instead of handing me my food, they told me to contact DoorDash for a refund and refused to give me the order I paid for. I was left standing there confused, embarrassed, and dismissed in front of other customers. It was humiliating and completely unprofessional.
After leaving the restaurant empty-handed, I called in to speak with a manager to understand what happened and to express how I was treated. The woman who answered the phone did not respond to my request for management. Instead, she put the phone down, and I overheard her talking negatively about me, saying things like “she needs to understand we’re not doing it” and “she’s got our customers ready to not order and leave — this is crazy.”
Not once did I raise my voice. I wasn’t rude. I was simply trying to understand why I couldn’t receive the food I paid for. I have spent money with King Ribs multiple times and have never experienced customer service or customer satisfaction this bad.
This situation caused me to waste my entire lunch break, and I had to return to work hungry, embarrassed, and extremely disappointed. I am requesting an immediate resolution, including a full refund for the food I never received and assurance that this type of disrespectful treatment will be addressed.
Sincerely,
SP

I ordered the rib tip dinner with potato salad and baked beans. The tips were a little fatty but the sauce was tasty.

The food flavor was good. Temperature was warm at best. Side portions a little small. Not sure why they have wheat buns. But anyway. No greeting at the walk up window. He just looked at me when it was my time to order. Places the order. It took about 20 minutes. Both got chicken specials. Food was ok. Price was average.

LOVE THIS PLACE!! If you want AMAZING BBQ this is the place!! I could smell the smoke from the cooking several blocks away and my mouth started watering. I waited in line (in my car) for about 30 minutes but it was soooooooo worth it. I ordered 2 racks of ribs, potato salad, baked beans, slaw and strawberry soda. The service was friendly and very nice. If you’ve never been here then get out from under your rock and go!!

Wow was not what expected. The ribs taste like they were thrown back on the grill from yesterday. We ordered a slab of ribs and 2 bake beans and Mac potatoe salad. The ribs were burnt and very tough like straw on many pieces. Bake beans were very basic. They taste like ketchup with jalapeños in. The Mac was horrible. It literally taste like salted elbows with a spinkle of non cheese. Very dry. My friend wanted me to try it and he was disappointed at the quality. I probably would not recommend or return.

Okay so I decided to give King Rib another try. I got the Tip dinner with Mac and cheese and bake beans. I don’t know know who’s cutting the meat but omg it was massive it did not use to be that big. The Mac and cheese was terrible I had high hopes and what happen to the slices of bread instead of the rolls. I spent $17 on my meal and it was terrible I couldn’t even eat it.
