AVOID THIS FULL MOON BBQ. All over the restaurant, it's posted they accept "Bama Cash", but when we paid with it, the transaction went green, but the worker canceled the transaction and claimed it wasn't working. They are scamming students and it's criminal. The short femaile cashier with fake eyelashes has a horrible attitude. read more

Love the menu selection, great food! Brisket and the chicken baker my favs! Dine in or drive thru for convenience. My go to place when I'm in Tuscaloosa. read more

Full Moon BBQ - Chicken Baker.....meal for two! - Barbeque Near Me - Tuscaloosa, Alabama

I made an order on Uber eats. The order said "ready" before I even left my house. I get there 10 minutes later & my order is Not ready! Cashier said order was never sent to the kitchen & it will be ready in a few minutes.. 25 minutes passed by & I had to ask Again was my 2 potatoes were ready.. That's all I had smh. At 1st one girl said no but another asked my name and they were sitting there, bagged up. I was not a happy camper because I was standing there behind the rails for the line, 20 minutes & no one, not even the manager checked to see what I was waiting for or gave any kind of assurance that my food was almost ready! I don't live but a few miles away so our taters should have been good & hot but they were not. read more

Ordered an open face chicken sandwich. When I started eating not 10 minutes later, the bread was as hard as a brick. You couldn't even bite the edges of one piece so all that was left was the little bit of the inside. The other piece, the fork wouldn't even go into. I can't believe someone didn't notice that when they picked it up to serve it to a customer. read more

Came to Tuscaloosa to watch the Tigers play! (Lose) With that being said, Full moon didn't disappoint. We tried the 1/2 chicken, pulled pork, brisket, fried okra, deviled eggs, and a side of pimento cheese. All were excellent and the staff were more than friendly. Thank yall for a great experience and 100% recommend trying this place. Geaux Tigers read more

Come hungry!! Check out the massive pulled pork baked potato I got!! I was only able to take down half but it was good. I prefer the potato to be cooked a bit longer but with all those toppings, it was hard to notice. I also was tempted to get the deviled eggs because I love deviled eggs and they used a particular brand of pickles I love. They were delicious but a bit skimpy on the filling- I like it more like a mound overflowing. Still delicious though. Service was good. I enjoyed the casual but clean environment. read more

Food is fantastic service is always good prices aren't bad and you get a lot of food for your money

I got takeout for 4 people from here a couple of nights ago. Oh my lord it was so much food. I a still working on my salad. The loaded potatoes and BBQ nachos were massive. I also had fried green tomatoes and hush puppies - such treats for this girl from up north! It was easy ordering online and easy to pick up at the counter 20 minutes later. read more

Another yummy meal. This is my favorite of the AL BBQ places I've tried. I got the chopped plate and the sweet sauce was a nice addition. My husband had the Greek salad and said it was actually the best salad he had ever had. read more

I've been eating here for years today 3/28/26 was the worst food I've ever gotten from here ribs were dry beans looked like they had been sitting for hours and the ribs were so small I actually left still hungry read more

Food was okay. I had ribs, classic and baby backs. Ribs were tender. Potato salad was commercial, as was baked beans. Maybe I was expecting too much. I was visiting from California. My whole time in Alabama I was so impressed by the "southern hospitality"... not so much here. Server was very non welcoming.. read more

Do not visit this location. Very rude service. Visit several locations of this restaurants and only this location has negative attitude towards service. Decided to call in for take out this time and arrived to an empty drive thru line and let the drive thru know I was there for a pickup order as I always do and was told I had to come inside. It was 37 degrees outside and the place was empty at 4:30 in the afternoon. The gentleman working the drive thru said I had to come inside. Every other location accommodates me at the drive thru. Upon entry the gentleman gave a blank stare and look if I could care less to be at work. I presume he takes joy in his power at the drive thru. Spent thousands of not 10,000 dollars plus over the years here as a family. Will consider taking my business elsewhere. Truly a sad experience. This location is struggling and it maybe the last straw. Too many places that value customers to accept this level of service. read more

This would have been a 1 star review if it was based solely on the cashier. If I owned this establishment I would definitely put her somewhere where she didn't interact with my customers (and perhaps not even that). It isn't good to have a cashier who tells you your party is rude for asking for a cup for a child. She was like talking to an inanimate object prior to telling us how rude my son in law was. The manager is the only thing that saved this at all, he was polite and friendly. The food was ok, a little bland for me, and they don't really have a selection of bbq sauce. I'd go somewhere else, it isn't worth the interaction with the cashier that will ruin the meal. read more

My wife and I frequent Full Moon Barbecue. We really enjoy the atmosphere. We enjoy the food, but last night, December 15th 2025 8pm, the attitudes of the front service person were below standards. I encourage the owner to re-evaluate his frontline staff, particularly the one that was working on this date/time. read more

This is my second visit to this location. I was not a fan the first time but my sister loves this place and wanted to go while we were visiting the area. Staff is great here. Despite everything going on due to the pandemic, the staff was helpful while I was trying to deal with a cranky four year old. I ordered the bbq chicken (dark meat) with fried green tomatoes and Mac and cheese as my sides. I remembered getting the baked beans and coleslaw last time and not liking either option. Food don't take long to come out and the tomatoes are fried when ordered so they were fresh out the grease hot. I realized during this visit that the sides can make or break your meal because this time I enjoyed everything. With a pinch of salt, the Mac and cheese would have been hall of fame good. The tomatoes were excellent. Not too thickly sliced and seasoned well. The chicken was good too. I love the dollop of chow chow that comes with every meal. So glad I went back. read more

Our first time there was on Sunday- today- when they first opened. Immediately when we entered they were all really friendly! The cashier was very helpful with us ordering for our fist Time here. Sometimes it can be a bit intimidating for older folks , to order somewhere we've never been. She made us feel comfortable and made some great suggestions. The food came out hot and quick. It was really good. I got the brisket bake potato and he got the brisket plate. Only downside was that it was super expensive for us. I mean $45 for two. That's all. Maybe we'll order something on the dollar menu next time nah. They don't have one. But it was good. By the time I was getting close to finishing the potato, I was extremely full and getting tired of it. It's big y'all. It's actually two baked potatoes! The restaurant was nice and clean and the workers there were all very nice!! read more

Key lime pie , OMG. The key lime pie was one of the surprising highlights of the meal. It was creamy and delicious, definitely save room for the pie. The nachos were also fantastic, the white sauce made them even better! I loved the white sauce on the onion rings too. The onion rings were also fabulous, thick corn meal coated hearty onions, very filling.I had the spare ribs and they were very good , nice white meat with delicious sweet barbecue sauce. I have definitely had way better ribs but I would get these again and again! The sides I had were also top notch , the baked beans were delicious. The cole slaw was very different then I am accustomed too , from Philadelphia, but I loved the vinegar based slaw! The menu is huge and I can't wait to try the baked potatoes , wings and deviled eggs! I wish I ordered the deviled eggs! read more

The food was amazing!! I had the big porker ( potato) Loved it!!. My husband had the riblet plate. With the fries. read more

Food is always okay. Sat in the drive thru for ten minutes and all we heard was "ORDER NOW". As we were ordering she was rude and used less than 2 words per response. Once we got to the window we sat there for another 20 minutes while all the workers argued inside. People were yelling cuss words and one worker was repeatedly yelling "I don't care they can wait. I don't give a shit". @ the manger: Mega yikes to whoever was on shift September 7 at 6 pm. read more

My husband said it is the best BBQ he has had in a long time. If we weren't traveling we would have got some to go. The brisket was moist and the ribs were so tasty. We did get a couple of slices of pie to eat on the road. The service as fast and friendly. If you are looking for some Alabama Football history and highlights check this place out!! read more

AMAZING BBQ!!! We ended up there 3 times while we stayed in Tuscaloosa! The staff and food were that good. We had 9 people in our party and the food came out in record time. Also, the manager brought us a dozen wings on the house because he appreciated our business. Unbelievable!!! read more

Great baby back ribs. Tender, juicy, tasty! Sides are great too especially the Brunswick Stew. Service is simple as you need to order up front and they bring the food to you. Nothing fancy with the decor; it's just a typical restaurant with booths and tables. read more

I walked out of this place completely stuffed tonight. Though I cannot speak for their meats, their trimmings are amazing. I always have a 3-4trimmings plate because I can never choose just 1 or 2 of their sides. They don't skimp on portions and everything is good. Tonight I got their Mac and cheese, which could've been creamier, but tasted great with their baked beans. I also got their fried green tomatoes, which are large, crispy, and served HOT. The cornbread muffins that come with the trimmings plate are also very good, always fresh, and perfect for scooping up leftovers on your plate. Lastly, you can definitely taste that their sweet tea is made in house, but be warned that it is definitely for those with strong sweet tooth's. read more

Full Moon BBQ - Three trimmings plate: fried green tomatoes, Mac and cheese, and baked beans - Barbeque Near Me - Tuscaloosa, Alabama

Full Moon turned out to be the PERFECT lunch spot for Iron Bowl GameDay. Get there before 12 and beat the rush. The restaurant was clean and there were plenty of TVs to keep up with other college football games. I ordered the 2 meat plate with Brisket, Pulled Pork, Mac & Cheese and Fried Green Tomatoes. My food was excellent and the portion was huge. I didn't think I would eat it all but somehow I managed to muscle it all down...so good. The order taker was serious but professional. She seemed like she was ready to get the big crowd through the line with great efficiency. The most stand out thing about this visit to FMBBQ was the general manager. He was making rounds in the dining area the whole time, greeting customers, taking trays, joking and laughing with everyone. That kind of energy always makes a huge positive difference in any dining experience. Great job read more

Food was delicious and there was a lot of it. Workers very nice. Would recommend people eat here

We were camping at Lake Lurleen state park and wanted something easy for dinner. As usual, Full Moon didn't disappoint. The sandwiches and chow chow are amazing. We love this place when we're are traveling near one. read more

It is always cold in this restaurant. Too cold for comfort. Haven't been here in months I came in today and remembered why I done come here.

I dove in here for a quick bite. I was down for a work trip and not a football game, that would change my "quick bite" comment. I just had a pulled pork sandwich and it was yummy. White bread bun, super spicy pickles and great sauce. The pork was tender without a lot of fat and had a great rub and was clearly slow cooked. read more

Full Moon BBQ - Pulled pork sandwich - Barbeque Near Me - Tuscaloosa, Alabama

Sadly one of the worst bbq I have ever had in Tuscaloosa, brisket was dry, pulled pork was flavorless. Only decent thing were the French fries. Place was fairly clean and service was ok read more

I ordered 6 smoked wings with hot sauce, rib sandwich, 2 sides. I thought the food tasted pretty good, just seemed like the ribs that came with the rib sandwich was just a little tough. Cashier ended up messing the original order up (6 wings, classic rib plate with 2 sides). She gave me the 6 wings plus two sides. No rib plate. Which was okay, she probably just didn't hear me. So I went back through the line and got a rib sandwich. That completed my order with everything I wanted. Just missed 5 stars based on quality of ribs. read more

Food is decent but very over priced. I will definitely return, but I will need to donate 3 bags of blood and platelets just to afford a 6 piece smoked wing meal with water . read more

Food was good had a 2 meat plate. Turkey was dry but the sausage was good. The bbq sauces were very delicious. Side were so so had the BBQ beans and potato salad. Not bad but not the best I have had. A tad bit pricy for me but maybe I ll come back and try some other sides. My plate did not have chow chow did want to try it maybe next time read more

A perfect example of Alabama down home bbq. Pulled pork sandwiches with chow chow, pickles, and tomato based sauce. Cottage style French fries were about average, but the sweet vinegar coleslaw was a taste treat. Then then lady let us sample a delicious chocolate chip-pecan cookie that's half dipped in chocolate. Yum. The restaurant is a visual homage to the Alabama Crimson Tide, and there are some cool autographed artifacts on the walls. This UGA Bulldawg fan enjoyed his meal and I tip my hat to the newest Champs. read more

Where ever we're in Tuscaloosa we always stop here. Great food great people who work here and always sports on the tv. Roll tide. It may always be busy because there so dang good , but your food comes out fast and hot. The sweet tea is so good and the cookies and pies are amazing. read more

What do you do when no one wants to grill out, you meet your mom and Aunt in T-Town for lunch. This location was in the middle for the three of us. We've all visited different Full Moon locations and had good experiences. Today was no different. It was not as busy in the inside as the parking lot suggested. We were able to walk right up to the cashier and place our orders. We all chose the Rib Plate which consisted of four bones and two sides. My mom and I had the Potato Salad and Baked Beans and my Aunt had Coleslaw and Onion Rings. They do not skimp on the portions. We all commented on how much food we had and how we had leftovers for later. My mom always ask for the "small pieces" when ordering ribs but unfortunately she didn't think that's what she received but still enjoyed her meal. My Aunt also ordered the Chocolate Pie which was not sweet enough to her liking. We all thought maybe it was made with dark chocolate. Overall a good visit on a Memorial Day. We enjoyed our social outing with good food and fast service. read more

This location of Full Moon has the best baby back ribs of any other location I have visited!!! They have very good sides. The brisket is excellent, and the brisket salad is highly recommended.... read more

It's all good but always choose the pulled pork! Kindest staff too! Great community staple!

Unmasked couple walked in, was served, and proceeded to sit for their meal without any reaction from staff. I want to support local businesses, but won't do so if they won't protect their customers and comply with state-wide public health mandates. When I addressed it with the manager, he said it was "only" a local ordinance and they weren't "allowed" to ask customers any questions. read more
