When you walk in and get hit in the face with the haze of meat smoke, you know you are in for a good meal. And that meat joint is 13th St BBQ. The Q-TATER w BRISKET is a must! The smoke and seasoning on the brisket is on point. This pairs perfectly with the butter, sour cream, and cheese melded in the baked potato. The NOAH'S ARK is essentially the meat lovers barbecue sandwich all with slaw and sauce and pickles. It is a giant monster of a sandwich and worth every calorie. The FAMOUS FRIED PORKCHOP SANDWICH is moist and perfectly cooked. Ask for extra side of sauce because it is just that good. Looking forward to coming back and trying the ribs and desserts. read more

Good bbq. They ran out of brisket but I will be back for some another time! I got the pulled pork beans slaw and other sides.

Excellent! Nondescript place in town. Got the chopped pork sandwich. Wolfed it down, and got another one.

Yummy! This is a very good and tasty bar-be-que. I was visiting my son and this is a go to for when we all return for his graduation. The staff was nice and the patrons were also very polite. Thank you! read more

I mean it really is no comparison to Texas or Tennessee BBQ in my opinion. If you're coming here expecting something similar, you'll be dissapointed like me. Definitely wouldn't drive here from Columbus again but might try the Columbus location and grab some chopped pork and Mac. Chopped Pork: best item, a good replacement for brisket which they didn't have when I went / don't have? Tender and juicy. Less bland than the ribs but still relatively bland. Ribs: Well cooked but lacking in flavor. Tender, just bland. Sauce: Carolina-esque gold colored, vinegary Mac and Cheese: pretty good would get again Baked Beans: served cold, mids. read more

1310 7th Ave, Phenix City, AL 36867 I placed a 35.00 order: two dinners. This was the worse BBQ ever. The portions were great, but the food tasted as if it were cooked, frozen, thawed, reheated, refrozen, thawed and reheated. It tasted days old! It was discarded. I had never heard of this restaurant and now I know why. I bought this dinner to share with a friend. What a waste of money! If you value you and yours, stay away from this restaurant! read more

Good place. Tried the 3-meat combo, with pork, ribs, and brisket, with BBQ slaw and stew. The stew and the pork were the highlights of the meal. The ribs were good, but the brisket was a little dry and didn't have the rich, deep flavor of a top-notch brisket. They have three sauces, a hot and mild mustard/vinegar sauce, and a sweet, tomato-based hickory sauce. read more

Great service, Food was right on the money. Loved everything I ordered with my family. Pricing was very fair and portioned very nicely read more

My husband picked up food to go from here and we ordered sliced brisket, Mac and cheese, and potato salad. The food was delicious! So far, this is the best barbecue that I've had in the Phenix city/ Columbus area. Bonus points that they do sliced brisket because most bbq restaurants don't even have it on their menu. Mac and cheese was excellent! Potato salad wasn't my favorite due to being slightly bland, so I personally won't get that again. But their sauce and sweet tea, along with the brisket was 10/10! read more

Best BBQ hands down! Nobody can come close to making BBQ like 13th street. Service is always the best!

This location never fails to satisfy! I went to get lunch for my Mother and I and it was perfectly delicious!!! Additionally, I genuinely appreciate that they are adhering to COVID19 protocols, unlike Veterans Pkwy location! Thank you Owner & staff of the original location!!!! Nothing is like the original!!! read more

Went in and ate lunch, by myself, lol because I was hungry and I'm so glad I did! They had a 10$ special which is what I ordered, everything was great. Juicy ribs, tender brisket, the baked beans where sweet n tangy, sooo good! The potato salad was decent. The sweet tea was sooo good!! I even went back with my kids for dinner, but they where closed at 6:15. read more

I was feeling in the mood to try a new place and I heard mixed reviews around Phenix City and Columbus about this place. So is decided to go ahead and give it a shot. I stood in line for 25 minutes with only two people ahead of me. When I get to the counter I had to wait even longer. Was frustrating. I had a couple questions about the menu since I have allergies. The lady was not wanting to help and said "maybe you should step aside and study the menu harder so we can take care of other guests" Wow. Nice. Thanks. Anyways, we eventually get our food. After a few bites in my stomach started getting the rumbles. Next thing I know, I'm throwing up all over the bathroom trying to contain myself. Unfortunately by that time it was coming out of both ends. 10/10 will NOT be coming back. read more

Quick, Delicious and reasonably priced. Super friendly staff and customers. Come hungry and prepare to leave with a smile on your face!

Excellent BBQ - had the ribs! Prices were great too...couldn't believe how many ribs I got for the price. The mustard BBQ sauce was surprisingly good! read more

Great bbq and such a southern gem tucked away. We loved it ribs and brisket was awesome

13th street is so very delicious! The people are so very nice and helpful! The food is so delicious! Try their half chicken with the hickory sauce and the Turkey sandwich. The only problem that we have had is them putting mayo on the turkey sandwich's which ch isn't cool. read more

The food was good and not dry. Ribs were tender, pork was a little tough and it was chopped and the brisket was moist but I like more grill flavor in my BBQ. The Brunswick stew was very good. The stew had a think quality and wasn't runny or soupy. The beans are good. It is a local favorite so I get the hometown feel and the staff is friendly. read more

You cannot go wrong with the slab sandwich! 2 thick slices of Boston Butt on a large bun. I don't see any reason to buy anything else. Lol. The Brunswick stew is a good side, and seemed really meaty. Good BBQ! read more

Very disappointed I was an original customer when it was on 13 st I live out of state now and visit when I can Remember Jimmie well they've remodeled as it's nice but it's not a local bbq place might as well go to country's Food is worse prices are high used to have the best tea in the state now it's colored SUGAR water save your money get milos. Pork chop sandwich was very dry and no bbq flavor banana pudding is pudding with wafers on top a blind monkey could make better Very disappointed looking for another bbq place no longer will I make a special trip read more

Pretty good food here. I have the Q-tater each time I visit. Make sure you order it "chipped". The meat is better that way. Sweet tea is the way it should be as well. Priced right. read more

Wonderful, classic, very genuine and friendly BBQ joint. Really, the experience was wonderful on a grey December day. We pulled into the parking lot full of pickup trucks, all full sized Fords and Chevrolets. A fair number of work trucks, which is always a good sign to me. There was a fellow splitting huge logs of oak. Entered the door of the small, freestanding cinder block building, that is half a hair salon. On the right door, entered to a cacophony of happy diners, folks chatting and catching up. The kitchen is directly in front a of a large cooking surface, directly over the coals. Large numbers of butts, dogs, sausages and all manner of meat. Special is written on inside of a ripped cardboard box top with a bluish magic marker. Yep, I'll take that. Meat and 2 sides with a drink for 8$. "Can I have it sliced outside?" Yes, or course. Thank goodness. Very friendly, only 3 people in kitchen, and you can just walk up and order. Then, stand while they prepare it for you. Other patrons wait patiently, and the food is ready QUICKLY. My wife wisely orders the 'world famous' pork chop sandwich, which is a huge deboned chop, also smoked over the fire's coals. Big, fat hot dogs for kids, and one got a ham sandwich with, you guessed it... thick chunks of smoked ham. They smoke EVERY meat on the menu. It was all quite good. The Brunswick stew was okay, the only average item. All others were stellar. This is the road gem we all search for. Why not 4 stars? I dunno, I prolly should just give it a 5... but I wasn't as crazy about the sides. I didn't have a dessert, so if it impresses next time, I'll probably bump it up to a 5... read more

We tried their chopped pork, Mac n cheese, and potato salad. The sides were meh. The portions and prices of the meat were good. Uses a real pit to create their meat. Sauces were decent with the mustard being the best. Nice people. Option of getting inside, outside, or mixed meat cuts. Meat was not cooked long enough to make pulled pork. Not much seasoning on the meat, but proper smoke ring and flavor was nice. Not the best I have had, but would return to try ribs. Meat bit back, I prefer more tender meat. Definitely needed sauce to make up for lack of seasoning. Offered chipped pork, but we didn't try. read more

This is now one of my favorite places in the area. Great food, especially the pork chop sandwich. The ribs and pulled pork are great too. I have been here 3 times and had fast friendly service each time. This is a great place to indulge your inner fat boy or girl:) read more

This is great food with great atmosphere! Definitely one of my favorite bar be que spots

Best bbq And good customer service The pork literally fell off the ribs. I smoke myself and I cant imagine ever getting this good. All the sauces they offered where amazing. read more

The food is pretty good for the area. However, try not to go anywhere afterwards because you will smell like the smoker. I had a hard time breathing in there. The portions are a little light but the quality is good. I had the Brisket Sandwich and my wife had the "famous" Pork Chop sandwich had a nice thick slice. read more

I wasn't a fan of the bbq sauce, it was mustard colored and very vinegary. The chopped meat wasn't as tender as I was hoping it would be. Overall, it was good food. read more

We tried this little BBQ joint this past week. My husband got their famous pork chop sandwich & I got the BBQ pulled pork sandwich. All sides cost extra but with the 2 sandwiches, 1 small & 1 medium potato salad & 1 medium BBQ beans with 2 drinks it was only $18. The pork chop sandwich was simply amazing!! It was huge and so tasty! As for the BBQ pulled pork sandwich, they use a mustard type flavor BBQ sauce and I was not a fan of it. The potato salad was creamy & not chunky at all. The BBQ beans seemed like they were out of a can and nothing great. I would come back here but just to get the pork chop sandwich for $6, nothing else! read more

Awesome BBQ! Delicious, easy and cheap. If you're in the area, you should absolutely stop in.

I generally prefer Texas and Kansas City style BBQ over pork based BBQ restaurants; however, I love this place! The pork chop sandwich and the plates of chunky pork are amazing! As you can probably anticipate, I don't like a lot of vinegar or mustard based sauces, but I had to buy the sauce to take home! read more

What a fun addition to our library of BBQ places we have eaten at throughout America! All 5 of us got the lunch chopped pork special and enjoyed it very much. The Brunswick stew is solid and the baked beans are great. The BBQ slaw is unique and perhaps an acquired taste. I wish they did a little something different with their potato salad. The staff is wonderful and the place is non stop busy. Smoke was rolling out of the stack in the roof and it is clearly a place the locals frequent, respect and enjoy! read more

Great BBQ in the true southern tradition . Did a take order and it was fast and delicious!

Off the charts you can actually se them cooking tg meat super friendly service my spot from now on

This has been my favorite BBQ spot in the area for years. No use in a pissing match on who has the best BBQ in the area since there are lots of places with excellent BBQ. For me, 13th street has excellent sauce and $1.50 chipped sandwiches which is two of the main attractions. The sides are also pretty cheap and sweet tea is nectar. read more

Outstanding Bar-B-Q! Very friendly staff. We loved the baby back ribs. The chopped pork was wonderful. Once I saw the location (a little off the main path) and the full parking lot, I knew I was going to eat well. We were not disappointed. Also, portions were huge. We'll be back on our next visit to Phenix City! read more

Great little BBQ place! The line starts forming at 10:30 AM, so come early or go late. Slay and Jennifer carry out their dad's barbecue legacy to perfection. Everything on the menu is fantastic from the $1.49 chipped sandwich to the Cue tater and the sweet tea is perfect! read more
