Ricks Barbecue - Muscle Shoals

Absolutely the worst BBQ we have ever eaten in our lives; actually took two bites and threw it in the garbage. Total waste of money! We were on a work trip and wanted some BBQ Saturday night, and we were really disappointed. Food portions were super small, BBQ Beef had a weird tangy taste too it, Mac & Cheese had no cheese in it and was COLD, Fries were Dead Cold. Tea was old & stale and probably made that morning and it was 7 pm that night! I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy!!!Wish I could upload pics...

Another good ricks! Ate here many times too! Always nice staff at this location and clean dining area. Good service! Food is pretty good! Just like other locations!

My daughter attends UNA and says Ricks is how she gets her Memphis BBQ fix. Customer service was great - very polite! (a rarity!!!)Chicken sandwich was too soggy from too much mayo. I would also encourage them to ditch the mayo and pickle (it's weird with pulled smoked chicken) and instead uses that fabulous white BBQ sauce! (Pickle optional)Fully loaded BBQ baked potato must have been good, because daughter scarfed it! Side fries were not fresh...cold, kinda soggy...very sad fries. It was around 12:30, so I don't know why they weren't hot. Seasoning was good. So there you go! I'm not saying I won't go back, but it doesn't hold a candle to Memphis.

This place sucks. They never get orders correct and there soda machines never work. Please stay away from this place and go somewhere else. Take your money else where.

We got a loaded potato with white sauce and a pork BBQ sandwich, and It was good, but it's pretty much exactly what you'd think you'll get from a fast food type BBQ restaurant. It wasn't bad at all, but it was generic and entirely forgettable.6/10 would eat there again if there was no other BBQ place open, service was friendly, line was slower than it should've been, and prices were higher than expected for what we got but it was still plenty affordable.

So bomb! I ate here three times while I was here. Delicious bbq. And it's great prices as well. Yum. I had the pork sandwich and the beef one. Their mild bbq sauce is good and not spicy at all. Thank goodness cause I don't do spicy at all. Comes with side or sides. The tea here is really good! The sweet tea yum. The fruit tea is a bit sweeter but it's still good. Taste like mango and peach.

Ordered to go online from Woodward Avene location in Muscle Shoals. Ordered ham but they gave us pulled pork. The pork was not very good or warm, tasted like they served it straight from the fridge. I went back online to confirm what I had ordered and it was ham, they just didn't bother to fill it correctly. They were not very busy at the time, I see why now. I called the store but they didn't answer, had to leave a message, which they didn't respond to. There are several good BBQ restaurants in Muscle Shoals, sadly this isn't one. I do not recommend Rick's BBQ!

I went July 26,2024 and it was not good at all. Look like someone just threw my potato in the box with no aluminum foil on it. It wasn't hot,warm, or lukewarm it was cold and the potato was so small now and they want to charge so much for a small loaded potato. I need the owner of Ricks BBQ to sit down with their ppl and fix this they used to be so good but it's like they making money now so why care smh. Once you stop caring about the ppl who buying your food it goes down and that's exactly what's happening with Rick's.. FIX IT‼‼‼

My Food was delicious and the lady that handed me my drinks and took my order was nice. My only problem with this establishment, is that I showed my discount card to the lady that took my order(which was nice) then another lady came and asked for it again like it was a problem with it, she looked at it and turned her back without saying anything else to me then made a statement to the staff near her. She wasn't friendly and turning your back and making a comment was very rude it made me feel uncomfortable like there was a problem especially when I see it on the faces of the staff around. Maybe some extra customer service training would do her some good.

This place is absolute garbage. The people working there don't give a shit about what they're doing, called to complain and the manager hung up on me. Absolute garbage
