4 Rivers Smokehouse

If you're looking for an amazing spot for lunch or dinner in Orlando, 4 Rivers is an absolute must-try! It's a staple BBQ chain in Orlando. We love coming here because the food never disappoints! Each time we visit, the quality and flavors are consistently outstanding. The service is always super friendly, which adds to the great experience. The pulled pork is my personal favorite, but honestly, you can't go wrong with any of their meats. Every bite is packed with smoky goodness!Don't skip the sides- they're a huge part of what makes this place special. The creamed corn is hands down my favorite, and it's great that they brought this dish over from The Coop. If you have room for dessert, their dessert counter is a must try. We typically spend around $15 per person, which makes for a filling and budget-friendly meal. Whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout, 4 Rivers always hits the spot!

Taste: 4/5Value: 5/5Ambiance: 4/5Pretty good barbecue at a more than reasonable price. I appreciate all the protein options, not a lot of BBQ places give you the chance to try a vegan meal. Most of our food was ready by the time we got to the register, but the items that took a little longer quickly met us at our table after we were seated. All the staff we spoke with were very friendly and inviting. Overall good experience.

I attended a business function and they had the event catered by 4 Rivers. Now, full disclosure, I have been to the 4 Rivers location on University Boulevard before and while I found it okay, I did not think of that location as anything particularly impressive.For this event, they brought in pulled pork, pulled chicken, macaroni and cheese, green beans, and bacon wrapped jalapeño peppers. I have to say that overall, I have to say that I found it pretty good and superior to the food that I had at their east Colonial location.I really cannot comment on the service nor the ambiance as this was a catered event, but, as I said, I was happy with the food.Overall, this particular 4 Rivers delivered in terms of catering this particular event. I will give this particular 4 Rivers location four stars.

Wow. Just WOW. This place is amazing and I can't recommend it enough. With it being my first time visiting, I did feel a bit over whelmed when I walked in but at no point was any employee rushing me to choose and move along. If anything, they took the time to answer my questions. I ended up choosing a platter with 2 meats and 2 sides and have absolutely no regrets. For meat I went with pulled pork and roasted turkey both were just mouthwatering! Both had such amazing flavor that I didn't need to add any BBQ sauce. Great Smokey flavor was also in the baked beans!! I wish I would've gotten more to go! By the time I finished, there was no chance I could eat another bite much less dessert. They did have a few choice that looked delish though!!!

It's been a few years since I've been to 4 Rivers and recently went with family. WOW! They have really expanded their menu since the last time I went. They now have bowls and salads, and more variety for those fo us who might be more health conscious. They still offer all of their classic items like pull and smoked meats. I ordered the Farmhouse Salad and I would absolutely order it again. It's no wonder this fast casual local spot has been around for almost 15 years. The service has always been great and continues to be. We will definitely be back more often. Go try out this Orlando gem when you can!

Not bad... but not great! I feel like I need to go back and possibly try something different! I had the brisket and mac & cheese -- brisket was pretty dry and didn't have much flavor to it. I did like the texture though! Mac & cheese was a little more watery than I would prefer for my BBQ and also didn't have much flavor. I will be coming back, but I'm hoping everything tastes better the second time around.

I'm usually not a bbq person but I had a great time at 4 Rivers! First of all, it's a very spacious place and the staffs were super friendly!My favorite was probably the brisket, and all the sides were phenomenal (especially the corns & fried okra.If you happen to be around, definitely give it a try.

We stopped here on our way to a store, and I'm so glad. The food was great. We decided to try the vegan burnt ends and beef brisket. The vegan burnt ends were good, but to be very honest: the real meat shows it up. But, if you're vegan or vegetarian, you won't be disappointed. There was a line when we arrived , but it moved pretty quickly. Seemed to be mostly take out. There were plenty of tables to be found. The decor is definitely BBQ!

Been to 4 Rivers before but never this location and let me say this location may be the one I start going to now! I tried the tenders for the first time and they were delicious. I wasn't expecting it to be that good but the favor was good and was super crispy. The fries were okay with a little of their seasoning. Of course I have to mention their signature bbq sauce, it more on the runnier side than thick. But the taste is 10/10. The staff were so nice! And really made the experience a good one. There's a bunch of tables inside and outside so whatever you're feeling. It wasn't too busy when we went which was around 6/7pm on a Saturday!Will definitely visit this location again.

The food was delicious as usual. Atmosphere is always enjoyable. This time was special though. The manager in training greeted us with an authentic and bright joy as we finished dinner. He brightened our evening. Thank you Todd.
