Sandbar BBQ

Lots of beers to choose a flight. They also had a Bulliet whiskey flight that I would have tried but couldn't pass up the beers. I had the sriracha wings and they were fantastic! Not spicy just good flavor. My husband said the brisket and Mac and cheese were both good. Completely unrelated to the food or typical restaurant experience...There was an incident while we were there that required the staff to call in law enforcement. The staff handled the situation swiftly and calmly. I was impressed with their professionalism.

Swung by on a nice July afternoon. Sat outside on deck Had the 'baby sweats' meat platter for $39. Didn't have the ribs ready yet. Add $10 for ribs after 4pmYou get small portions of meats and 2 sidesBrisket. Good flavor Pulled pork. Again tastyChicken thigh. Overcooked. Unusual sauceChicken wings. Smoked. A little toughWaffle fries were goodRoot beer beans. OKOverall fairly happy with foodGripes. Never got a water refill Only get a fork. Brisket and runny beans should have automatic knife and spoon

We were rabid fans of Rip City Grill when they were around in SE PDX. There was nothing whatsoever bad on that menu. When we moved to Sandy, we found they had been reborn out here as Sandbar!Sort of. The really, really good: the tri tip sandwich is AWESOME. It is amazing. The tri tip tacos are also heavenly. The chili is also super good! The not-bad-but-was-hoping-for-more: the burger is not nearly as good compared to what I considered to be the best burger in Portland back at Rip City. Whatever is missing is missed dearly! The fantastic jalapeno poppers are also missing, as are the potatoes. The bar is just ok. Lots of brioche buns here too. Ugh. They are different restaurants, I know, and I am grateful that the tri tip is still as glorious as ever. I was really hoping for a superb cheeseburger, but it just didn't deliver, so I stick with the tri tip. The building itself is really comfortable, and is a pleasure to visit. Only 3 stars? I wish there was more to really love, but I will take the tri tip and be happy with it, but know that I LONG for that burger. You can refer to my earlier Rip City Grill review for context. Ok, my tri tip sandwich caliente style has arrived....

Saturday night and the place was maybe 1/4 full. When we first walked in I wasn't sure if we just sat ourselves or not, but decided to wait to be seated. When seated at a booth, we sank into the bench seats so I spent the rest of the time sitting at the edge so I could eat. It was not comfortable. Since it was our first time there we decided to give Mama Sweats a try in order to taste a bit of all the meats. Upon ordering we were told that they were already out of ribs. "Already?!" I asked in disbelief. The menu said ribs served after 4pm and we arrived just after 5pm. And like I said, it wasn't even busy. Not sure if I was disappointed with the fact that they ran out of ribs just an hour after they began serving it, or maybe the uncomfortable bench seat, or that there was so much salt in our corn that we couldn't eat it. The dry rub on the chicken wings was a bit much. The sauce on the chicken was interesting. It wasn't bad. Actually the citrus provided a refreshing taste to the platter. The pulled pork was probably the best, but it would've been nice if it had a bit more sauce. Sauce was extra. They had more than a handful to pick from, but paying to taste each one didn't make sense for me. Our waiter was nice, but I just didn't have a pleasant experience. It's unfortunate because I was hyped to try this place.

Needed a spot to eat and we were sick of the car. We were having the house fumigated as to why we couldn't be at home and it was also 93 degrees outside. We could have used quicker service tbh but overall we serenely good vibes from all waitresses and staff, very helpful and willing.

Excellent food. Service was great and prices are very fair for the quality and quantity. Definitely recommend.

I'm torn here. The service was awesome and the whole place smelled so BBQ-Licious! But when we got our food - it was room temperature. The drink menu is absolutely awesome! The guac and chips were also delish!Are we coming back? YES!I love the big TV screens all around showing current sports stuff - if you like that sort of thing. We are definitely going back!

Sarah and staff were friendly and attentive. The chili and cornbread was great. The tri-tip sandwich was good but some big pieces of gristle. The waffle fries were excellent and I even enjoyed the homemade ranch which always has me worried.The atmosphere is quiet for Sunday at 1PM. There are televisions playing sports. There are limited tables and even more limited parking.The menu options for what I consider for typical bbq is missing at least on the lunch menu. I am curious about what's on the dinner menu. Thus, I will be back to try it.

Went to Sandbar BBQ in Sandy last week. I had the tri-tip sandwich with horseradish. It was really good! The fries and cocktail were also good. Wifey had mac&cheese and potato skins. Place seemed legit, but keep in mind, we didn't really get any real "BBQ".

Oh my goodness!Phenomenal! We had been doing the Fruit Loop all day, and then Timberline, and looking for dinner.We were famished and this was the perfect choice!Indoor/outdoor, spacious, but well-crowded, and we asked to change to a table with chairs--cheerfully accommodated!Our drinks from our lips to table were less than 1min!!It was eerie!, but great.While giving my card early to our waitress (Faith) I inadvertently knocked her "portable cash register" out of her hands, but she was very gracious.The food was so hot, delicious and tasty... we ordered the whole menu between us and it was SO good!I talked to the manager, Jake, about how much we loved our food and experience and even he was superb as well.I am a tough grader but these folks killed it.
