Brisket is good, other stuff ok

 foodielover, Saturday, July 14, 2007
This review is for: Memphis Minnie's Bbq
Was so excited to try the food here while driving by because of the reviews. So, we showed up for take-out and found a long order line. I thought the beef brisket was great, cooked so that everything just falls apart tenderly. But the St. Louis smoked pork ribs were a bit dry. We had 2 orders for almost $14 each and the 2 sides which came with it weren't as good as I'd expect. The macaroni & cheese were served in these small containers, the size of a tiny Jello take-out at cafeterias, and not very tasty. Didn't like the greens either. The french fries were interesting, flavored like BBQ potato chips. They give you 2 containers of sauce, the green tangy one I could've left behind, but the BBQ sauce was pretty good. Obviously a popular neighborhood hangout. It's a small place but you could fit 8 at one table. I wouldn't rush back here but am willing to visit again to sample some of the other items mentioned by other reviewers, including the sandwiches. Pros: Good brisket, comfort food, very casual atmosphere. Cons: Parking, dry ribs, funky decor

    Misrepresentation

    Unless their food has dramatically improved, their name simply gives Memphis BBQ and southern food a bad name. More >
