Last night, we went to Adam's Ribs restaurant in Edgewater with my niece and her husband. The 4 of us always have a great time together and it almost makes no difference where we go. But they had been talking about Adam's Ribs for a long time so it was nice to find out that their recommendation was absolutely true.Adam's Ribs is not fancy. You can understand absolutely every word that is on the menu. There is no arrogant snot-nosed hostess looking down her plastic surgery improved nose at you when you show up to eat without reservations. But here is what Adam's Ribs does have - absolutely real, home cooked food that is delicious, servings that are big enough to make you feel sick if you eat the whole thing and great service with a smile from a waiter who has clearly tried everything on the menu. Bottom line? I love this place and would go back there tonight if it was not 1 hour away from me.We started out with the full loaf of onion straws. OMG wonderful! The onions were so sweet, the breading was perfectly crispy and not oily at all. For an onion lover, there is nothing better than this appetizer. It is served with a Daniel Boone-sized knife to cut and, believe me, you will need it! This appetizer makes a full meal if you are alone.My main course was the 8 ounce sirloin, medium rare. I am telling you that my steak was fork tender and really flavorful. Perfectly done! I was so full that I could only eat half of the mashed potatoes & gravy (which are definitely worth the calories) and none of the spinach (which was so garlicky that many vampires died during its preparation). Perfect meal!The other main courses were the chicken breast, the full rack of baby back ribs and something called "if pigs could fly" platter - basically baby back ribs next to a mess of beautiful chicken wings. I love that! Everyone was so happy with the meal that we were waving the white flag. No need for dessert because we were all so damn full.The server was Charlie. He is an asset to Adam's Ribs. Friendly, very knowledgeable about the menu and the ingredients and how everything is cooked. He worked his butt off to deliver great service fast and that he did, in spades. This guy truly must love what he is doing because he is so good at his job. Bravo to Charlie!Okay, so I am reviewing the place and I have to find something negative so say. The dining room is dated, a bit sparse and there is a smell that I don't like. Mostly, I think the smell is just old restaurant. But you get used to it and, once you do, you realize that Adam's Ribs is one of the few restaurants left that serves good quality, home cooked meals with regular old fashioned American ingredients! No pretense, no airs, just great solid food that fills you up every time! I would never let some little bitty old smell get in my way for one of the great meals that I will enjoy there in the future.I recommend that you go to Adam's Ribs and you better take all your friends. You will be VERY glad you did!

I've loved Adams for decades. Today I had a chance to compare with Mission BBQ, baby backs. I was actually shocked that Adams was not as tender as I remembered. Excellent flavor as usual but not as fall of the bone as Mission. Mission won this challenge, but Adams will always have a special place in my heart.

I've been going to Adam's for years and it's always solid. This is homey, delicious comfort food at its best. I especially love coming in the winter - it's a great spot for some delicious food while warming up with a brew.I've never had an issue with service. Some people like to use Yelp to complain about a single bad experience out of many good ones. I used to live around the corner and was here all the time and never had a problem.Don't sleep on the steaks. I would put them as better than most of the steakhouses around.

We got the barbecue ribs. They were undercooked and very disgusting. We had been wanting go for a very long time but it was a disappointment. The service was horrendous. They were very slow and it was not crowded at all. They place was very damp and creepy. The lights were very damp and I don't think we will ever come back.

So I went here for my first time with my family and wow this place really is great. We walked in and had a very warm greeting by leyah and I apologize if I got her name wrong but she was also our waitress and was fantastic. We started off with the onion loaf and that was really delicious, comes with a sauce that's like a ranch almost, very good. We also had to try the crab pretzel that was fabulous as well, then for the meal we had the full rack of ribs and pulled pork sandwich's. Let me just say this in closing, Adam's Taphouse has the BEST RIBS I've ever had, they are really really good. Please keep up the good work guys. I will be back very soon.

We go to Adam's frequently and went today Everything tasted old, dry, and reheated. We got ribs and brisket. Very dissapointed. Only things that tasted good, were the items they couldn't reheat. Do Better Adam's

Barely edible food that took 45 minutes to serve. They then proceeded to over charge us by $25, claimed it was due to a "new system" and "dinner rush" as the manager phrased it (it was 8pm and 6 tables were full). They then charged $2 MORE for a meal than what the menu states, which includes two sides AND THEN proceeded to charge a la carte for the SAME SIDES that were INCLUDED in the meals they overcharged us for!! See receipt. When a restaurant manager rudely argues double charges and basic math and restaurant skills elude him, maybe it's time for that manager to look for a non customer and math facing career and for Adam's to make that happen sooner than later.Go to Chads...much better food and service.

Pick up ordered. Nice customer service/clean carry out, however, disappointed with the food Except for the ribs and chicken. Ribs are good, chicken good. Mac n cheese and potato salad tasted sour, not much seasoning. The crab cake along with the crab dip over pretzel seemed uncooked/mushy, and the pretzel was hard. Baked beans were good. It's disappointing because I've heard this is the place to go for ribs so I assumed everything else would be a compliment to them. Maybe it would've been different had we dined in but unfortunately that's unlikely now. Best of luck.

Filthy. Waited forever to be served. Been there before. Bad service every time. You can count on it. Stay away. Go anywhere else.
