Great smoked ribs. Spicy habanero was excellent. The owner was super nice. The sides were very good. The restaurant was recently redone and looks great. The candy bacon was over the top. Loved the baked beans too. No bathroom in the restaurant, but maybe they have one in the back. Would come back again.

When you first walk in you are greeted with the light scent of wood smoke. This was my first time here and that alone confirmed I’m in the right spot!! Mike took the time to explain the menu and the smoking process. I decided on the brisket sandwich with habanero BBQ sauce and it was fire. I will definitely return to try something else as there’s a lot options on the menu. Cheers!!

After 12 years in Texas, I know BBQ — and BBQ by Mike delivers authentic Texas flavor right here in Niagara County! I tried the brisket, chicken, and pulled pork, and every bite was fantastic. The Habanero BBQ had the perfect kick, while the regular BBQ was sweet, smoky, and full of flavor. It’s amazing to see true Texas-style BBQ thriving in WNY — highly recommend!

Excellent and tasty visit to BBQ by Mike this past weekend. I know this is an unpopular opinion in the BBQ world- but I don’t eat meat, so I really appreciated the house made queso and extra flavor explosion in their creamy mac and cheese. Of course you can add all kind of meats on top, but the OG was delicious as is. I also loved the slaw - chunky and creamy and finally the potato salad which leans on the sweeter side and a bright yellow sauce combo w mustard and mayo and seasonings make it just right. My husband ate the 3 meat platter and enjoyed everything he had. We will be back!!!

The OG should be called OMG!!! So good. You must also try the candied bacon. 🥓 The corn bread was perfect and the loaded baked potato was to die for. Great atmosphere. My wife and I will be coming back and definitely recommend this place to anyone.
