The brisket sandwich was tough to eat and seemed reheated. The rib meat sandwich was bland and had zero flavor. I will never eat there again

I had some of the best ribs that I've had in a long time! We decided to go here not knowing anything about it and we were sure glad we did. Excellent food! Next time I'm in Miami I will definitely go back!Food: 5/5

I ordered delivery and they didn't include any BBQ sauce, even though I ordered two meals: pulled pork and ribs. Not a single sauce was provided. To make matters worse, the pulled pork was very dry. I'm really disappointed. View menu

Enjoyed the original Uncle Tom's Ribs. Would definitely eat there again. Not much for service canned or bottled drinks no refills. Food was great but only saw the server as they dropped off the food and delivered the bill.Food: 5/5

I don't usually write reviews, but when I do, it's because my experience was particularly poor. The ribs were dry and nearly inedible. The brisket was sliced so thin that it hardly qualifies as BBQ. The mac and cheese tasted just like Velveeta. It's shocking that this place considers itself a BBQ restaurant. I would recommend staying far away. Food rating: 1/5.

Out here from California and wanted something good to eat. Google bbq. And this restaurant came up. So I tried it out. This place is a big no no. If I was able to give 0 's I would. Very very unsatisfied. Best thing was the water. Sliced beef was like lunch meat. Brisket was thinly sliced steak. Chicken had a weird taste. Omg. I can say more. But I do not recommend this place.

The food and service were excellent. The staff was friendly and attentive. I ordered the pulled pork baked potato, while my girlfriend chose the pulled chicken baked potato. The potatoes were generously sized and packed with meat. Both the pork and chicken were flavorful and moist. Even with four sodas and a bottled water to take home, the total came to less than $30. A fantastic value for such delicious food. Food: 5/5

"If you want to find, arguably, the best bandeja paisa in Miami, this just might be the place. Not your typical hole in the wall, cheap eats but definitely a quaint and enjoyable sit down experience. Ventured here after my craving got too intense and I went to old faithful Yelp for guidance. Although relatively new, the pictures of the food really sold me and I brought some hungry souls along with me. We ordered some empanadas Colombianas, super fresh and steaming hot! The sauces they serve them with was also perfect. For entrees, we went with a Calentado Paisa the Bandeja Paisa (this one was twice the price but very hearty and more than enough for two good eaters). We also each went with some natural juices fruit limonadas coconut lime sounds odd but it works! I opted to not give the full 5 stars because of several reasons that I think they can easily fix: 1. Nicely and simply decorated but little ambiance overall adding a little authentic Colombian music or more cultural touches could help 2. The waiter was nice but kept trying to push more and more on us... even mentioning that the bandeja paisa was a decent portion but not enough for two people (it was actually more than enough and we both left stuffed) 3. Ordered a sancocho de res and although taste wasn't bad, the meat was rough and you could tell coloring had been added seems like a typical case of not having had enough time to cook it properly as it does take hours to make a proper sancocho Quality of the food is evident and I will definitely be going back to fix my next craving!"
