I was home Saturday evening with no meat thawed out and no desire to cook. I found myself looking for something to order and add to some leftover Mac and cheese. Ordering from restaurants through DoorDash or Uber eats can be a bit annoying, so I went to their website to scope it out first and as soon as I saw "what sets up apart, no pork!" I was sold! I don't eat pork and I LOVE beef ribs, but I don't find them in restaurants often, so I was excited! Meat was tender, seasoned, and the sauce is great! Loved the sides, did a lil happy dance getting that perfect mix of everything on my fork. I literally took this picture to send to my grandma down south (my meal request when I visit home is always oxtail or beef ribs lol)! Anyways clearly I enjoyed my food leaving a review while eating, I just wish I ordered more sauce for my leftovers today lol. Definitely will be ordering again, but I gotta get in the car and pick it up so I can look the cook directly in the eyes when I say I love you! Add it to your list friend, it's worth it.

This is the 2nd 5 star review I've ever given. I started by only eating the burgers here. That was because they had me in a chokehold. They are great!!!! Today I ventured out and tried the beef rib and the brisket. I don't even like brisket. But not I know apparently I've never had it prepared correctly. I have zero complaints about this place. Service is good and

Stopped in at Medley grill today ordered the half pound brisket I felt like something was missingthe brisket was in a big box no garnish just three pieces of meat. They need to use smaller boxes or perhaps add a piece of bread or something for the price of $16.00 I guess I expected more.The meat was tender and fresh though but the presentation made me feel cheated.I tried them 3 times now and they are a little pricey I wanted to support a Black owned business. I pray for their success but the half wings are expensive and don't come with fries. Yall could make more money if you come down a bit and give the customer their monies worth.I pray for your success!!

I tried it and it was tasty. I'm impressed the owner put together a special for his loyal customers. I was able to taste various entries for a good price. I was able to purchase a value meal to introduce my colleague to Medleys. They were impressed too. They will want to introduce their friends to the flavorful meal.

This is a 2nd time here. the 1st I had to get a refund before the wait took over an hr. I thought ok cool, let's try it out, it was about 245pm so lunch rush done and folks still at work. It still took nearly 25mins, which I wouldn't mind if the food was on point. The lady took my order and was super pleasant and the cooks for courtesy as well. Pros:Sauce decent, turkey tips nice, dirty rice (fair)ConsBeef rib absolutely not, I do believe it was old which I'm confused what took so long because none of it was like uber fresh, super confusing. Brisket ummm it's ok taste phatty, the jury is still out, mac and cheese lol nope. Not sure I'd go back, but I'd definitely say worth a try.

They have to wise up and give people whole wings, Wings Around The World tried the same thing, didn't work out so well, Medley is basically for red meat eaters, but for people who just want chicken, it's highway robbery

1/13/2023Where do I start? There is an old saying, "You never get a second chance to make a first impression!"I arrived from driving 1.5 hours from work. Got there to chaos, no this or that on the menu because they ran out (lack of preparation is my opinion). Staff of 4 including the owner. I arrived at about 615p. No one took my order until 631p. I noticed the owner preparing 5 brisket with seasoning When I arrived. Workers with no hair nets. Food sanitary handling was questionable. Remember when I came in the brisket was being prepared. Well one hour & 15 minutes those brisket were still sitting out, not being covered or cooked. The owner left and his staff became extra slow. No one knows how to work the register to issue refunds for orders they took or didn't fill because they ran out of meat for those orders. I say don't take online orders for things you ultimately end up not having. The place is a mass of chaos. I waited over an hour for severe disappointment. I truly try to support Black businesses but waiting over an hour for food that wasn't what was expected is not a reason to return my business. I ordered the burger & fries, 1/2 slab (I guess doesn't come with fries because I didn't get any), turkey tips with fries, 2 links with fries.The Brisket Burger is just a cheeseburger. I suppose it's made with meat from a Brisket but it is precooked meat. There is ZERO SMOKINESS from a Brisket. Just a plain burger. If you like burgers great. If you are expecting a burger from actual smoked brisket be prepared to be disappointed. The Beef Ribs are a shadow of what you would expect of a meat beef rib. I ordered a half slab which is 3 bones attached. My half was 3 cut up bones with less than a third of the meatiness shown in the video loop shown in the lobby area. The meat was also overcooked and dry. And Why was my so called slab not one piece with 3 bones like it should have been? I call this a bait and switch (see picture). Wasn't meaty, Wasn't smoky, barely any sauce. Just a deep Disappointment for my money and time.The beef links was just A LINK (SINGULAR) cut in half (see picture) sold as 2. FOH!!! i ate one before taking the picture. A TOTAL rip off. Wasn't tasty, not flavorful, no sauce even though I ordered everything to be sauced. The Turkey tips barely sauced but tender. Definitely not worth my time, money or the trip.I can say you got me. I spent plenty of money this first and ONLY TRIP but I am not returning. I paid for things i didn't get. I came here because I saw a Black Foodie reported on this place. They must have gotten choice food for their video. The rest of us get jacked. IT IS A NO for me. What is really sad is this has to have been the worst dining experience I have had in quite a while. The wait was to long and the food was disappointment. I would have done better get pork ribs from any of the more well known rib joints. The staff has a lot to learn about food service, quality, filling orders correctly. Wearing proper food prep attire, professionalism and working a register beyond taking people's money.Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. This review is a guide to having an unsuccessful business. Best thing i can say is the young lady that worked there was respectful even when a female customer was (way out of line) giving a backhanded compliment over how mature she sounded on the phone versus how she sounded in person. That whole part was a waste of breath from customer that should have gotten her stuff and moved dafuq on! That was the entertainment for the place.Sorry won't return. Good luck.

So apparently if you order food one hour before closing time and order via Uber Eats they refuse to make your food. Food is good but this is the third time I've had to cancelmy order because they want to close (Uber driver's words) I guess they making so much money they can afford to turn it down...smh

Absolutely worth the visit! The restaurant itself was a bit odd and definitely a hole in the wall. It's a bit cramped and sometimes filled with smoke BUT PLEASE do not let that deter you! My coworker and I stopped in after work one day and between the two of us, we got turkey tips, brisket, ribs, brisket baked beans, yams, Mac & cheese and cornbread. The Mac was a bit dry and the cornbread a little difficult to eat but genuinely EVERYTHING ELSE was killer! Service was a bit quicker than what we were told but please be patient, it's worth the wait. Looking forward to visiting again.
