Customer Reviews
I was really expecting more from a place with so much history. I will give them the benefit of the doubt because we were there an hour before their closing time (which is 8pm according to google) but the only decent thing I ate was the ribs. The ribs and one piece of chicken were the only things left to order and they only had like 2 or 3 sides to offer. There were Flys all over the place and it wasn't very clean. The ribs were decent but it's not something I would drive a long way for.
Curtis BBQ is iconic and I so admire their tenacity …but I also miss Curtis. Also, when guys on harleys ask for no sauce or mild on the side, it caused the local insects to stop in midair out of disbelief. The chicken in my experience was better than some other recent reviews.
If you want to experience BBQ the way it was intended, come to Curtis's!! The ribs were 'fall off the bone tender' and the chicken was perfectly cooked. We fed a family of 3 with the Family Pig Out meal and took some home. Talking to Mr. Curtis was the cherry on top. He was happy to chat with us, introducing his dogs and raving about his pig at home. He seems to be in his happiest place at the BBQ, and his family works next to him. It isn't fine dining, but it is 5 star eating.
Curtis's bbq is iconic but the food was just fair. Perhaps because it was close to closing. Chicken was very dry, ribs were ok, bbq was pretty vinegary. Potato salad and baked beans were amazing. Pulled pork was good. Ambience is fun and eclectic
Great lunch stop off on any trip. We were looking for food and weren't sure we'd find anything in the area. Luckily we timed that search perfectly. You can load up on some delicious ribs and all sorts of sides for cheap. Really tender, great vinegar based sauce too. Not sure all of it was all that fresh but on a nice day when you're just looking for something quick, filling and tasty this is the spot. Load up and grab a park bench.
