Decided to try the fried pork egg rolls, one of my go to favorites. Wasn't the experience I expected. The selection appeared rushed, thrown together, and overcooked. Not sure if I will ever order this again.

I would give this place six stars if I could! We've been on the road a few days. I pulled into our motel, and checked GrubHub. No delivery available. I was feeling resigned to eating crappy fast food ... again. Delta Q to the rescue! I called in an order, and 10 minutes later I got a phone call letting me know my order was ready for pickup ... at their drive-through window. So easy! And? So delicious. We got: fried mushrooms, BBQ egg rolls.

crispy chicken salad, 3-meat platter (with cole slaw and mac 'n cheese), a slice of turtle pie, and sweet tea. Everything was perfect. I mentioned we were at motel, and they made sure we had everything we needed to eat in style, and...

Was in the mood for some brisket and ribs, saw the online menu photos, and decided to give it a shot. Extremely disappointing when I arrived and saw the new menu which did not have either of these. Ordered the chicken, and it was average at best along with some baked beans with minimal flavor. Barbecue sauce did not seem to be homemade, and lacked any distinguishing features. Staff was friendly and courteous, end it appeared. They were as empathetic to the fact that they did not have what I was in the mood for.

R wanted to find out how good bbq in Arkansas was while we were on our road trip from ATL to Los Angeles about 5 weeks ago. Through Yelp he found Delta Q, which had good reviews. As I drove through small town Forrest City, I already made up my mind that I was going to order a half rack of ribs. We arrived, and it was easy finding a parking space, since the parking lot was bigger than was necessary for Delta Q. We walked into the restaurant, and the smell of smoked meats was so thick in the air that I knew everyone walking out of the restaurant smells like they walked through a meat smoker. The employee working the counter welcomed us and asked if we were there to eat in or take out. After she found out we were going to dine in, the employee told us that we could sit anywhere, so we sat at one of the cushioned booths. This place looks like it's been here for a long minute. The seat cushions are torn up, and the whole place looks like it could use a good cleaning. I felt sorry for our server, because she was handling multiple tables inside the restaurant, the incoming phone calls, take out orders and the drive thru window. Just listening to her communication with the kitchen staff, who I couldn't see, it was no surprise that she had to yell to the kitchen staff just to get their attention to correct orders that they messed up. There's a bar area, but it wasn't being used while we were there. Our server brought us our food served on small square baking trays. My half rack of ribs looked meaty. I also ordered mac and cheese and green beans. R ordered pulled pork, hush puppies and cole slaw. The cole slaw here is more mayo (vs vinegar) based, and tasted good. I didn't try the hush puppies. The mac and cheese were average, and the green beans were salty. Initially, I thought the ribs were very good. They were almost fall-off-the-bone tender and the flavor of the ribs were good as-is, with the right amount of seasoning. I put some of the sweet (as opposed to the vinegary) bbq sauce, and sauce was perfect and helped enhance the flavor of the ribs. Unfortunately, there was just too much fat on the ribs, and, after I ate half the ribs, I had to stop eating them because my stomach was being affected by the fat I had already eaten. Overall, the food was average to good. The service was good, taking into consideration that there was only one employee running the front. The place, though, needs to be cleaned and maintained better. Our shoes were sticking to the floor, our arms were sticking to the table, and the restroom was dirty, and used paper towels were piled high on top of the overflowing trashcan.

Driving back to Phoenix Arizona from Nashville Tennessee we found the spot just off the freeway in Forest city. What a perfect location for a real barbecue out of the city experience. Walking in to Delta Q the smell was so good like a fresh campfire wood like smell. We were greeted by a very kind and pleasant lady who sat us down offered us something to drink and explained the menu to us. I had The four meat combo and I have to say it was the best barbecue I have ever had and I have had a lot of BBQ in the Midwest and in the East Coast. The smoked pulled chicken was so good moist with the right amount of smokiness and sauce on it The pulled pork is probably the best pulled pork I have ever had The brisket OMG so moist and tender slid right down your throat The ribs when you don't need to use your hands and the meat just falls off the bone with the fork you know you're getting the best of the best The potato salad was made in-house and the most freshest potato salad ever I hope one day I can just make a trip out here just to eat barbecue it's well worth it to anyone traveling on interstate 40 who wants a really good meal with great friendly service this is definitely the spot

Go for the bbq, stay for the green beans.

Local bbq, one location only. The waitress said they smoke their own meats so all is right with the world. The good: Wow, the ribs are good, and they need no sauce. That was RRR's dinner and he actually didn't care for the sauce. 'Too vinegary', but that may just be the local fave. My pulled chicken was moist even without sauce (I'm trying to found Weight Watchers friendly dishes) and my green beans had a wonderful flavor, at least for me. Bacon and garlic, so good (and no, not a great WW choice. Our server, a sweet young lady, did a fine job and got everything right. Her family was in a booth behind us, cutest baby ever! The place was clean and welcoming with multiple TVs and rock music playing. Now the bad: Those awesome green beans? Waaaaay too salty and I like salt. I hope it was just an off night. My salad was what you might expect, small and only iceberg lettuce. Since I asked for no bacon or cheese the only other addition were a few sad tomato pieces, no flavor. And last, even though we didn't want them, there were no pork rinds served or offered as it appears other Yelpers have enjoyed. We didn't ask but perhaps our server decided we wouldn't want them when I said I was trying to stay on my Weight Watchers program. Or maybe they don't offer anymore. So, with those few caveats, we would definitely try this again and I do recommend.

Paid 18.00 for a large sandwich which is 2 of these.. both looked likes this!! guess they decided to make a regular sandwich and stretched the amount meat used.. guess you can say this was the most expensive bread I have ever bought

Just passing through on our way back home from Dallas. Looked to Yelp as we always do and found this little place in the Arkansas Delta. We stayed simple with a bbq pulled pork plate w/ fries, potato salad, and baked beans. All was great! Pleasantly surprised with this find on our way through.

Delta Q was bookmarked on Yelp for our trip to San Antonio because of the good reviews on Yelp. It fit our schedule on the way back. It is located about a mile off the freeway but it was easy to find and we were hungry. When we arrived, it was busy but not crowded and we were greeted and seated immediately by our server, Falon, who started us off with a bucket of Crispy Pork Rinds before taking our drink order. Then, after looking over the menu for a few minutes, we were ready to place our order. We decided to split a Fried Pickles appetizer and my wife ordered the Pulled Chicken Salad while I decided to try the Three Meat Sampler with Brisket, a Three-Bone Pork Rib, and Pulled Pork. Mine came with a choice of two sides and a roll. I chose Potato Salad and Hush Puppies. Everything was delicious and my wife particularly liked the Pulled Chicken Salad. I enjoyed my meal and I give special mention for the Hush Puppies. These were not dense and over cooked like so many are. The outside was crisp but the inside was soft like cake. This was definitely well worth the stop. Falon kept our drinks full and checked on us just the right amount and made us feel welcome. She even offered to give us our drinks to go. You should definitely check it out!

Friendly service! Called in order and picked up through drive through window which was handy during these Crazy COVID times. Back to hotel for some great fall off the bone ribs; dry version piping hot. Also had side salad that was loaded with cheese bacon bits and tomatoes; then a side of green beans. So here is what I love about traveling and trying different places; the green beans were not what I was a custom to; yet they were very tasty The first bite of the green beans was... ok this is different. I didn't know at first then the flavors all flourished and I thought it was very good. The beans were a larger more mature pod type green bean and they come prepared in a slight gravy and seasoned very well. Possibly an onion bacon type gravy. I would have them again. Definitely could have done with half rack very filling.

If there's a long line for this place, don't be surprised. That's just the "Delta Queue." In fact it was pretty quiet when I came here, which is a crime, because the food is so... damn... good. What to get: Pulled Pork and Pork Cracklings What else: Don't ask for Rice Krispies, because here, they go Snap, Crackling and Pop. If it gets really hot in here, they change their name to Swelter Q. This is a really out-of-the-way BBQ spot a little ways off the interstate in Arkansas, a few miles west of Memphis city limits. It is not a place that is on most people's radar, and that's a shame, because it should be. Some of the best pulled pork you'll find anywhere. Juicy and tasty and delicious. If the Beatles eat here, it becomes Helter Skelter Q. The cracklings are probably the best I've ever had. They are only sold in huge bags, and I had no intention of buying any, but the extremely friendly cashier talked me into it, and she was absolutely right. They may give you a heart attack, but they will be worth it. If it gets so hot that the pulled pork starts turning to liquid, it becomes Melta Q. You must stop at Delta when you're heading into, or out of, Memphis. Also check out One And Only BBQ and Tops BBQ in the city. And since it isn't as well known as the Heavyweights and Medium Weights, that's probably why it's sometimes known as Welter Q.

Greasy onion rings and the chicken plate...

Stopped here based on Yelp reviews. BBQ is not usually my favorite. Started with fried green beans; the family liked them. Entrees were not very good. The kids and I had catfish, husband had a rack of ribs. Daughter did not eat the fish, I ate only half of the small order. Just wasn't good. The ribs were not tender, and the bbq sauce on them had a strange spice that we couldn't identify. Nutmeg or something that didn't belong in BBQ sauce. Definitely not a place we would recommend. read more

We just left "Delta Q". Sadly to say, I was NOT impressed. We stopped at the "Delta" based on previous Yelp ratings. Here's what happened to us a little over an hour ago (5:30 PM) Based on the previous reviews, I ordered the pulled pork plate with Sweet Potato French Fries and Cole Slaw. When the order came, they brought pulled chicken and potato salad, both of which were not what I ordered. When I mentioned the problem to the waitress, she promptly corrected the problem. The food: the sweet potato fries were barely warm, as if they had been kept under a warmer lamp and then placed on a cold cookie sheet. (you are served on a small cookie sheet which is neat in itself) The pulled pork was lukewarm at best. No taste of smoke what so ever. For dessert, I ordered pecan pie ala mode. When it arrived, it was anything but home made; more like a Mrs. Smith's pecan pie that had been microwaved to the point that the filling had melted and was running on the plate. Topped with a medium scoop of ice cream. For the price ($3.95 for the pie and .90 for the ice cream), it was certainly not worth it! Based on the mishandling of my order and the low quality of the food, I will bypass "Delta Q" next time I'm on I-40. read more

Traveling down I40 and needed some lunch. Looked on Yelp and found this place. Decided to give it a try. So glad we did. They brought complimentary homemade fried pork rinds to our table which were very good. Then my husband and I shared the large sampler platter which included ribs, smoked chicken, beef brisket and pulled pork. Got the potato salad and baked beans for sides. Came with fried rolls too! Yes- that's what I said... fried rolls. Not healthy but we weren't looking for a healthy meal. Bonus is that we left with a huge carry out of leftovers for our supper. We will stop again when we find ourselves in that area. read more

Stopped in here on our trip cross country. Being from NC I got really excited when I saw the great reviews and even a few comparing it to NC BBQ. We were so totally disappointed. The pulled pork was some of the driest Ive ever had and the pulled chicken was even more dry if that's possible. The brisket was okay but still nothing stellar and the ribs were all fat and grease. The onion rings tasted like really old frying oil and the mac and cheese was just elbow noodles in a watery cheese soup. The best thing here were the hush puppies. Save time and just stop at McDonalds...even if you hate fast food! read more

I travel to Little Rock every week and I-40 has been jacked up over the past 6 months at Forrest city. With this in mind I'll stop to get gas on the way home and often look for a good meal. This place use to be Lenny's Subs. The sevice is excellent, the interior is spotless, and the food is well worth the extra few minutes to drive off I-40. I had the fried pickles spears that were perfectly crunchy on the outside & 3 tamales and chili. The tamales were small in size and had ground beef inside. I was expecting them to have shredded pork (I am at a BBQ house) so the flavor was so-so on the tamales. The chili was unique in the flavor department due to having a slight vinegar taste but really a mild and accenting well with the tamale. My main meal was the smoke chicken salad with balsamic vinegaret. Perfect size and combo of super moist chicken with bacon, egg, crunch crouton, and cheese. I look forward to the next visit and road layover in Forrest City now that I've found a restaurant worthy of my time, attention, & money. Great value and taste surly to satisfy. read more

To me this falls under "It'll do" BBQ. The dry rub ribs were crunchy and dry, and the sides choices were underwhelming. They do have an excellent BBQ sauce, which was required to get through the ribs. The mac&cheese was nice, and the roll was sweet and tasty. However, for me that's not enough to make up for the mediocre meat. read more

Also the buildings surrounding it are all empty and abandoned. Very sketchy surroundings. The inside is clean and small with very little ambience. It appears most folks come here for carry out. I dined in and for lunch ordered a half pulled pork and half sausage combination platter with a side of potato salad and baked beans. The sausage was sliced and slightly chard on the grill, overall pretty good. The pulled pork was nothing special, nor was their barbecue sauce. The potato salad was overwhelmingly crazy with mustard, and the baked beans, aside from the bits of pork in them, had to be simple, canned beans. Food was served fairly quick. IMO this is definitely not a noteworthy spot for a BBQ foodie.

While driving from GA to OK we wanted to stop and enjoy some Memphis BBQ, without much detour…read more After searching all over the web, nothing really stood out to us as a must stop. With the reputation of Memphis bbq, we wanted more than a 4.3..which made this gem about 45 minutes into Arkansas stand out at a whopping 4.7. It was a little more detour than we expected, but totally worth it. Don't be thrown by the town around it. It has seen better days, but it was perfectly safe and everyone we encountered was super nice. When you finally happen upon Beatty Bs make sure the weather is in your favor. This is a to-go setup that is essentially an oversized storage unit with a kitchen. It's clean and well kept, but small with no seating. The smoker is even in a detached screened pavilion. All of this simplicity means one thing, rather than pay for overhead, they can focus on low prices and quality food. I don't think I've ever had meat with such an amazing deep smoke flavor. It was cooked so perfectly it slid off the bone. If I'm ever passing through the area again, I'll definitely be making the detour!

They're supposed to be the best barbecue on all of Highway 70 in the state of Arkansas. But we'll never know. We arrived at 6:00 p.m. and the place was as dark and closed as it could be.

I went to a birthday party at a park and Three Brothers BBQ catered. The staff was all very nice…read moreand hospitable. They helped serve everyone which was very nice. There was bbq tri tip and bbq chicken drums smothered in BBQ sauce. Green beans and Mac n' cheese as well. BBQ trip tip- was a little tough on a few pieces, but it was my favorite of everything. BBQ chicken drums- they were not cooked through all the way and a few of us got raw bloody meat in the middle of it. Smothered in the same sauce. Green bean- basic green beans in water, can't really mess up on that. Not sure if it was fresh or canned. Mac n' cheese- not enough cheese at all, not salt or pepper flavor, it was in need of salt n pepper. I feel like the BBQ sauce tasted like any regular BBQ sauce, nothing really special to it. I would describe it as sweet and tangy I guess. It was smothered over everything so I think the flavor of the BBQ sauce is very important for the meat. At least the BBQ sauce was normal and wasn't distasteful. The crew came with a U-haul truck and bbq'd everything on site. My first time experiencing a catered BBQ. Not sure if I would ever opt to at for someone to BBQ for a birthday, but it is a good way to let everyone enjoy themselves not having anyone having to BBQ for their own party.
