LET ME TELL YALLLLL! THE BEST #1 PLACE TO GET BBQ THATS DONE RIGHT! Every Dime Spent Here Is Well Spent! I Have Been Searching for Good BBQ & Have Ordered From Almost Everywhere But They Fell Short. This Place Takes Their Time With There Food, It’s Tender, Flavorful & Seasoned To Perfection. This Is Old School Right Here! You Don’t Get Cheated On Hard Left Over Meat or Baked BBQ Trying To Pass As Smoked! I’ve Fed My Family Here At Least 2 Times A Week Since Discovering Them Again. You Can Taste Love In This Food & Appreciation For Their Customers! OUTSTANDING JOB GUYS! Thank You For All Your Hard Work! Food Like Yours Is Very Hard To Come Across But Once You Find It, You Stick With It! The Peach Cobbler Was Out Of This World As Well 🙂

This was our first time ever ordering from Robinson’s and we are so glad we did. Everything was so good! We got a bucket of tips and wow. It was more like an entire tray of tips! The tips came dry but that may have been my fault just cause Uber eats is weird sometimes. There was plenty of extra BBQ sauce tho and we just poured it right over the tips and man oh man it was so good!! I had a taste for brisket but not BBQ… i never had a BBQ brisket but this one at Robinson’s was delicious. There’s so much food I’m pretty sure my husband and I have leftovers for the next 2 days. Lol Oh yeah!! I am super duper picky with potato salad… The only potato salad Ive ever liked, was my mom’s* RIP , and theirs is soooooo similar!! *Sorry Mom!!* Thanks so much Robinson’s… We’ll be back soon!!

Hadn’t been here in a minute & out of town visitors wanted ribs ….Nice atmosphere as you walk in…MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT with food i immediately noticed sauce recipe is not the same and was very skimpy spread on order & the ribs & rib tips were tough as nails…you had to chew each piece to the point your jaws were sore ! Very inedible due to the toughness of the meat. Fries and corn were great, skip the corn bread and coleslaw was a little too much on vinegar side. I found a piece of chicken in my rib tips order that was very old and HORRIBLE…I still can’t get the taste out of my mouth. The dining area which is a pleasant setting should have been cleared of dying flower arrangements that were spread around the area. And extremely disappointing waste of my hard earned money…won’t be doing this again

The food was delicious, I ordered 4 buckets of rib tips. Everyone loved them. Obviously for take out. So I dint sit inside. Only thing was , when I entered, there was a small line cause no one was at the counter and after 5- 10 minutes , when the person showed up, we got our food right away.

I’m not going to be completely dishonest, but there’s no love in the food I got, I mean the Mac n cheese tasted like it was straight out of the can, the food is drowned in sauce not much flavor, I understand about your food cost but atleast capitalize on taste and execution I was recommended to try the food and I am disappointed you guys have great potential, just get it together please everything is just overly saucy and no flavor, feels like I’m eating can food.

My Wife went in to order at 1:45. We didn’t get our order till 2:35 wasn’t too much two orders of tips two sides some fries and a brisket. They need help there so if you’re looking for a job or apply.!! The food was about a six would definitely try again at like maybe later on in the day when the barbecue is good and cooked.

The restaurant needs a serious upgrade. Everything is outdated and showing signs of wear and tear, from the ceiling to the floor. The vents were filthy. The food is edible, not necessarily nasty, but definitely not delicious. The rib tips were not fresh. The mac-n-cheese was the worst. They need to close the doors, revamp the recipes, and add some touches of tlc.

I recently attended a family event hosted at this venue, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. The buffet-style food setup was convenient, the staff was attentive, and the atmosphere was perfect. The well-stocked bar and available jukebox added to the experience. The venue was impeccably clean, including frequently maintained restrooms. Thanks for a great experience, great food, and service.

This is not my first time coming here but will be my last. I used to come as a kid but haven’t been in a while. My mom took my husband and I here today and when I tell you, it is not the same. The place was basically empty ( which I’m not use to) and food was not great at all. The mashed potatoes were spoiled and Mac and cheese was overcooked. The ribs were better than the last time I came but still not as good as the first time. The employees were loud while watching a football game with a couple of other guest. And for almost $20 per person for the buffet/ lunch line is crazy if the food is not up to par. I do agree with another review that I read, they do need to shut down and fix it up and redo the menu. I was seconds away from call Gorden Ramsey for a restoration because I really don’t want the business and it’s legacy to go down the drain.

There’s a reason why Robinson’s Ribs is #1. The taste is consistently amazing and addicting! They’re very generous with portions. We’ve only ordered carry out but the restaurant looks like a great spot to accommodate large family events.
