Our first time at this restaurant and we LOVED it! The food is amazing here! The vibe is so nice and creative! Brisket was the most amazing thing we’ve ever eaten! Sides were delicious as well! We will definitely be recommending and eating here again and again! Staff was so nice and welcoming! Thank you!

We tried Rib Shack in Eagle recently, and unfortunately, it was a pretty disappointing experience overall. I ordered the two-meat combo ($33). I initially wanted burnt ends, but after ordering, we were told they were out—so I swapped for brisket. The sides were loaded potatoes and cheesy rice. Cheesy rice was just okay, but it had that unmistakable refrigerated or frozen-then-reheated taste. Not inedible, just not fresh. Loaded potatoes were fine and honestly the best part of my plate. Brisket was mediocre—dry-ish, unremarkable, and definitely nothing memorable. Pulled pork was the real miss. It had a strange, off flavor that made it borderline unpleasant. I didn’t finish it. My (adult) kid ordered jalapeño cheddar sausage and brisket, and the sausage was rough—easily one of the wors

My cousin that lives in Eagle, ID recommended the Rib Shack Barbecue restaurant for an amazing BBQ Dinner! They did not disappoint. Great customer service! They were very, very friendly and it was a great family dining experience. The ribs were some of the thickest ever. The brisket was tender and very flavorful. We had the smashed potatoes and cole slaw as sides. Both were as delicious as they look. You won’t be disappointed coming here.

TLDR: long wait times, cold food, bad experience all around I don’t leave bad reviews 🫣 I had only heard good things about this place and we’ve been wanting to try it, so we went tonight 12/6 around 5pm. I’ll start with maybe they were under staffed. It was only 3 of us: me, my husband, and 3 year old. We walked in and waited about 20 minutes before being seated even though at the time there were only 3 other families in the restaurant. By the time we were sat there were a few other families behind us in line waiting to be sat. Then they sat us at a dirty table and it takes about 10 minutes for them to come clean it. Another 15 to take our drink orders, which was weird because 15 minutes after that a different waiter brings us empty cups and leaves them at our table, while other families a

Rib Shack saved our Thanksgiving!! Due to a change in plans we decided to order out for Thanksgiving but unfortunately, it was the day of when we decided. We called around to a bunch of places, all of which were either closed or weren't accepting orders. The lovely family owners of Rib Shack initially told us the same as they were putting together their pre-orders already and we're closed for their family get together. Shortly after, they called us back and offered to help us with a meal. They put together a spread of meats, sides, cornbread, and even a delicious dessert very quickly and have us a phenomenal price as the icing on the cake. They were kind, generous, and the food was excellent! We will definitely be back for more! Thank you for your kindness and willingness to help our famil
