Some of the best ribs and chicken I’ve ever had hands down. They’re temporarily out of a food truck til the restaurant is being rebuilt. Can’t wait to go back!

The service is good and the people are very nice. However that’s where the good things and about this place. They only had two sites available for me to choose from. And they were out of an item I wanted. The ribs were still chewy. The pulled pork was dry. I hope they take my recommendation and improve the quality of the food because it’s a nice little place with good people.

My go to place for barbeque . Ribs are tender , chicken is nice and moist , and i love their sauce , although i know how to make it now . I had it analyzed . It’s a secret recipe . Yum , yum !!! Get your barbeque from the King , Bar B – Q – King , that is .

Ribs were dry and not tender at all. It looks like they just throw it on the grill for 5-10mins and serve it. Very chewy.

OMG…. been wanting a sandwich from here forever… Finally got a chance to get to West Tampa, & get a Center cut rib sandwich. I was not disappointed, hear me pandemic or not I was satisfied and so were the 3 others I purchased sandwiches for too. Sorry I forgot to take a pic. Too busy eating. Lol
