Memphis BBQ

So today I will be trying out a small little rib and wings joint that I heard so much about. Apparently the ribs were the best ribs around. Memphis BBQ is located north of Highway 7 on Islington. It is a very small location and the first thing I noticed when I entered the small establishment was the trophy shelf. They had won many awards for best ribs and wings, so I was excited to try it out. Although this place was a small store with limited seating we still eventually got a seat after about 5 minutes due to the surprisingly amount of people coming in just for pick up orders. I also noticed there were bulletin boards piled up with different business cards throughout the years, which I thought was pretty neat how people were networking. The server was extremely polite and accommodating to our needs. So I ordered the Elvis Platter. You were able to choose what kind of sauce on the wings and ribs as well. All meals came with complimentary beans, corn bread, and coleslaw, which was pretty awesome.


When I bit into the ribs it was so juicy and I just loved the way it fell right off the bone. I can honestly see what all the hype was about now. The ribs were to die for! I have never had ribs like this before. The way the sauces complimented the ribs and wings amazing, a blast of flavour in every bite. I guess this goes to show you that you cannot judge a book by its cover, because from the outside of this establishment it seem very small and the location wasn’t great either. However the food here was superb. I am definitely returning in the near future and would recommend this restaurant for rib lovers everywhere.

Food 9.5/10
