Poor Red's Bar-B-Q

We came on Sunday evening around 4:30pm. The restaurant was very crowded with loud music at the outdoor seating area. So, we went inside to be seated. We ordered right after seated but the service was disappointing. It took so long to get our food. We ordered an appetizer & an entree to share but both dishes came out at the same time after asking 2 different servers since we've been waiting so long. When our food came, the appetizer was cold. However, the food tasted delicious: well seasoned & perfectly cooked.- Chicken barbacoa fry basket: delicious (despite was delivered cold when we got it). The waffle fries were crunchy and well seasoned, The combination of spices and sour cream on the shredded chicken were amazing! They put generous amount of chicken.- Poor red's St. Louis ribs: the sauce was AMAZING! Tangy and sweet. The ribs were smokey, perfectly cooked and tender. The fries were still hot and crispy & well seasoned.

I haven't been to Poor Reds in probably 15 years. They have improved a lot, but kept the original setting. Ordered BBQ pulled pork, shrimp lettuce wraps and BBQ chicken sandwich. Plus drinks. Server was great. Prices decent. Food good. Drinks very good. Worth a stop!!

Great salon in the Area. Best Golden Cadillacs anywhere, they were the original makers of the awesome drink.

Well what can I say about this place!?!??! So fun and freaking deliciouse!!! Staff was great. Uber friendly and prompt with the order. We had a big party and they totally accommodated us with no problems. Harley had to wait. The food?!?!? Incredible ribs!!! Warm and inviting old fashioned pla e to be. Loved it

This place was recommended to us to stop at on our way to Tahoe. The outdoor patio is very inviting and cute. We didn't see the inside since we sat outside. The service was pleasant and friendly. The food was good. We had the cajun chicken sandwich with fries and the full rack of ribs with Mac n cheese. The rack of ribs is a large portion for the $$. They were fall off the bone and good. Just a little too much bbq sauce for my liking. Mac was delicious and the sandwiched was just ok. The sandwich was room temperature and the fries were cold. We tried the gold Cadillac drink was awful. We took one drink and left it behind. When the server asked if we like it we said no. She said "it's a drink you either love or hate." Nothing over the top and probably won't go back. It was fun to stop in and give it a try.

This would be one of my absolute favorite rural restaurants in California. The restaurant was clean and very inviting. The menu options are an excellent value for California standards from what I could see.The BBQ was fantastic; I was delighted with my meal no matter what I ordered! The servers were courteous and always efficient, happy, and polite. The BBQ ribs that I ordered were hot and delicious. Came within 7 to 10 minutes, which was okay with arrival timing.I can't wait to return and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for somewhere to eat in rural California.

Really like this place. You need to go looking to find it, but it is worth it. A true local's place with good but not great food. Fantastic drinks. And some of the best service to be found in the area. Most of the menu is very solid, but stay away from the supposed smoked meats as none of them are smoked. This sort of place is either your thing or it is not. It is mine...

Came here for a drink after having pizza at Pizza Norcia. We were in town visiting friends and wanted a night cap before heading back home. It was Friday and it was crowded with locals, mostly bikers. We were really there bec we wanted to try their famous Cadillac cocktail. We ordered that and it was interesting. They poured it in two cups which was nice, kinda bogo on drink. It's chocolate liqueur that almost taste minty. Didn't finish it but at least I can say I got to try it. Also got to read the history of this drink and it was really cool Will comeback next time to try their food

I've eaten here many times over the years, and the last few I've been disappointed. I love BBQ ribs, so we went here last Wednesday for my birthday. The ribs were tough and just not great. I had left overs and didn't even eat them because of how disappointed I was when they were fresh. Lol Our bill was so high and we barely ordered anything. Definitely will be going to a different BBQ place next time. The drinks are what makes this place appealing. Lol

We live locally and pass Poor Reds often. We ate here a few times a couple years ago and weren't impressed. A few members of our car club decided to do an early lunch here this weekend. My husband and i were very skeptical.. well, we were pleasantly surprised! I had the wedge chopped salad and it was delish! My husband has the burger which he loved! Our group got the potato skins and buffalo fries, all delicious! The only disappointment was they no longer have garlic fries.We will definitely be back!
