Gates Bar-B-Q

The person taking the order was rude. Menu was confusing and rather restricted. BBQ sauce tasted nothing like any BBQ sauce I've ever had in a bad way. The food was average at best. Burnt end sandwich had a good smoky flavor but the BBQ sauce ruined the flavor. Ribs were fatty and not fresh and had too much seasoning on them. I wish I had gone somewhere else and gotten BBQ that was actually worth it so I was really disappointed with this place. Parking: Shared parking lot so may be hard to get a spot.

Gates Bar-B-Q is by far one of the greatest barbecue establishments out there. As a beef brisket connoisseur, I must say that Gates has put together a bold flavor and consistent product in terms of cooking time and overall temperature. When you request lean portions with minimal fat, they come through with those specifications. The portion sizes are more than ideal, so the customer does not feel cheated or experience buyer's remorse. The wait times can be a bit on the less than ideal side, but when your food has been procured and you dig in, it is more than worth the wait. Hope they keep up their standards as far as flavor and adhering to customer specifications are concerned. If so, then they have gained a lifelong customer. So if you are seeking barbecue that not only satisfies the senses, but also nourishes the soul, then look no further than Gates.

Went with a friend to Gates Bar-B-Q for lunch today. We got the all beef Nooner lunch special. SO GOOD! 10 out of 10 would recommend. 3 out of 5 stars. Wouldn't change a thing. #HailNimrod
