We are back and it's still delicious. Huge full rack of ribs special with two sides at $23.99. Comes with two delicious hush puppies (but two is a little stingy for sure!) With so many good BBQ options, service and a sincere, warm greeting can be a differentator. This time it was Trey who's not afraid to let loose a little dance and fill the room with his giggle. Another great experience. We ordered hush puppies to go. read more

Happy to revisit the old Alexander's as a new bbq place. Great service and friendly people but the bbq - I had the smoked brisket- was dry and rough. Just maybe not fresh. read more

Great 3 meats platter. Pulled chicken, pulled pork, and slices of brisket. Collard greens are fresh and delicious. Tried the award winning baked beans, and they are very good. Service was great too. read more

Ambiance: How I would imagine a BBQ joint. Country music and videos played in the bar area loud enough to know the song but quiet enough to not disrupt our table convo. We sat ourselves per the signage. Our server, Christie (?) was great! Informed of us the differences in the sauces. Checked on us without being overbearing despite them being an hour from closing. We had the Frisky Brisket, Slider Trio and the Redneck Sundae. Food came out quickly, and packed with flavor! I don't have words to describe the food. Really just mmm, mhmm, yes and bites with eyes closed. The Fyrah Fyrah sauce was so good in the Frisky Brisket sandwich. The Mac and cheese was more typical but had a yummy smokiness! I added a little bbq, and it definitely leveled it up even more. read more

The service was absolutely amazing! However they could learn a thing or two about BBQ. I loved the intimate feel of the space and the gentleman up front was a delight to deal with. I did not like the brisket or pulled pork. The ribs were as the kids say mid lol and I was not a fan of the Mac or baked beans. Bbq is one of the toughest sectors of the food business and my heart goes out to those who enter that arena. How do you go low and slow while meeting customer demand with the balance of not wasting food. I value this community so much I must tell the truth but I am pulling for this place. read more

Nice people and excellent food. The new name is Back Porch Barbecue and it'll be a new favorite for us.

Great little joint. We ordered a slab of ribs and several sides. Ribs were meaty and yummy. I really enjoyed the vinegar based bbq sauces. Loved the baked beans, potato salad and collards. The Mac and cheese was smoked, sorta different but obviously popular. Loved the fresh lemonade. Friendly service. We will stop by again, thanks! read more

Jadeans Smokin Six O BBQ - One slab of ribs. Collards, potato salad, Mac and cheese, bourbon baked beans. The platter was huge! - Southern Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

This was my first time trying this place...the customer service was wonderful and the guy at the front desk was delightful! The space looked cozy and the smell was amazing! Unfortunately the food wasn't great...the ribs were super dry and tough & the coleslaw was completely unseasoned - unfortunately we couldn't eat most of the meal. read more

Local vibe. Killer service. Awesome little bar. Oh yeah, fantastic smoked meats. A little off the beaten path for me, but if I'm far west end, I'm looking for a reason to hit Jadean's. read more

Amazing food. Service is pretty solid and the ambience is a little hole in the wall. Just what you need in a good BBQ joint.

Good local bbq spot. Pretty pricy but worth it. I always get the pulled pork and that's really good. Friendly staff too.

The baby back ribs were from a big old bull. A pork and beans could have come from a can.

Cozy local spot off the beaten path with excellent food and super friendly service! Another bbq restaurant we went to closed early due to running out of bbq! Super glad we came as we throughly enjoyed everything we ordered read more

Small business, sat in restaurant twice. Good portions, great service. Definitely good food. Chicken is smoked- so a little dry, but great sauces to add to it. Pulled pork a d brisket are great too read more

I have been wanting to try this place for a while now after hearing so many great things about it. I finally had an opportunity to for lunch. Overall, I was pretty disappointed in this place as I had high hopes based on what others were saying. We ordered: Limeade - I have a thing for limeade and this unfortunately didn't make the cut. There was barely any lime flavor in there. Although it was a good price ($4 for a hugeee cup), I don't think it was worth it. I ended up not finishing this because it reminded me of just sugar water with some sprite. Sweet onion hush puppies - I thought these were going to be different from other hush puppies because it had sweet onion in it but tasted like any other ones you'd find at a restaurant. It had a good crunch and paired well with the butter. Pulled pork sandwich - this sandwich was stuffed full and was probably enough to make two sandwiches. It was juicy and smoky but lacked flavor (didn't know that could be a thing!). The original bbq sauce helped a bit with it but not much. Cherry wood smoked chicken sandwich - was slightly dry, smoky but lacked flavor as well. Mac and cheese - was really disappointed in this, mainly because we found a piece of hair in it! Overall, I was pretty disappointed in this place and hope that I just caught them on a bad day. read more

I called curbside even though Phase 2 was in place! My oh my! This place was Smokin '... and I'm not just talkin' bbq!! The girl who answered the phone, Carolyn, was as sweet as the iced tea! Super friendly and helpful with the menu! She even brought my limeade out to my car while I waited because it was a scorcher! She goes, "I thought you need this first!" Now that's Southern hospitality! Btw, wearing appropriate PPE. There were a couple of picnic tables with umbrellas in front of the restaurant for outside dining. Several bbq lovers were taking advantage of that option! I ordered burgers... because if they do bbq right, you know the burgers will be good! We also got Hand cut seasoned fries, and a pulled smoked pork bbq sandwich (North Carolina style!) Several of their entrées come in smaller sizes, we opted for the 4 oz. rather than the 6 oz. bbq. Carolyn also upsold me with their homemade banana pudding! Fresh squeezed limeade and semi-sweet tea refreshed our souls! Back at the house, we opened our food, which was packaged well, and included condiments, napkins & utensils. I'd prefer the sandwiches wrapped in a container, instead of foil, because they got a little squished. Initially, we thought, these burgers look a little small... but let me tell you, they are thick and full of smoky tastiness. Compact hamburgers with tons of flavor! I'd order these again! The pulled pork was superb and the tangy sauce was on time, the fresh coleslaw (packaged separately) added a nice, crispy touch. I'm looking forward to eating my way through this menu... next up... sliced brisket, cherry wood smoked chicken, baby back ribs and bourbon baked beans... and pies!! This awesome bbq joint is right off Patterson, it's a breeze to find... just follow your nose!! read more

Pride & Passion. That's what you taste and experience as soon as you walk through the door at Jadeans Smokin Six O BBQ. My Fiancé and I were greeted by Amy at the register and told her it was our first time there. She was beyond helpful with suggestions when it came to deciding what to order. Their menu has a wide variety of options when it comes to utilizing their smoked meats. Sandwiches, Appetizers & Meat platters galore; there's something for everyone. We landed with getting their Smoked Brisket, Smoked Chicken Thigh Sandwich, Smoked Mac & Cheese, Baked Beans, Onion Rings and their Coated Fries. Everything was perfectly smoked, delicious, and it was some of the best baked beans I've had! I will say, the brisket was a little on the dry side for our taste, BUT the smoke flavor with the sauce was perfect. But what's going to keep you coming back is the customer service. You truly feel at home and welcome by all of the staff. The owner (Janet was her name I think) personally came to our table and thanked us for coming in. We left with an apple turnover (BEST WE'VE HAD) Brunswick Stew and Banana Pudding made to order to take home. Will have reviews for those later. We highly highly recommend, from 2 restaurant industry people. read more

Stopped by here tonight with some friends and had a great experience. The staff were great and the atmosphere was homey and clean. The food overall I'll say was average but good! The wings had a great flavor and were super juicy but I felt the brisket, ribs, and pulled chicken were a little dry but had a good flavor. The Mac and cheese though had a creamy flavorful texture and the fries were fried to perfection. Overall, I would say the food was good but nothing special. read more

Have been to Jadean's several times and normally have great service and experience. Unfortunately, this past Friday evening their crew was extremely understaffed. They had only two employees working the whole restaurant despite the dining room being completely full and receiving non stop take out orders. The two folks working were totally overwhelmed. Took over 20 mins just to get drinks, and almost an hour for food. The quality of the brisket sandwich and wings was way worse than normal, likely because the poor cook in the back was by herself and slammed. It took almost 20 mins to even pay because the other employee had to handle a) drinks, b) wait tables, c) cash out and hand off take out orders, and d) handle non stop phone orders. They were telling everyone it would take 20 mins but there was no way. Their food tickets were piling up to the floor because the one person in the kitchen couldn't keep up. They should have stopped taking phone orders to simply catch up. They told us the main crew was at a BBQ festival. Why stay open and sacrifice your normally awesome food and service quality? It was a bummer to watch. Credit to the two people who were working their tails off to try to keep up. This poor experience was 100% not their fault. read more

I've loved their BBQ but went out on a limb today and ordered their trout sandwich. Just WOW! Big square of Texas toast, huge trout fillet perfectly fried, and a great sauce. I have a new favorite. read more

Good brisket and pulled pork. My husband loved the ribs. Smoked Mac and cheese was better than most places I've had it. We didn't really care for the cole slaw as it was very vinegary tasting. The sauces for meat were absolutely terrible but thank goodness the meat was smoked and cooked perfectly. We would go again but maybe get it to go and use whatever bbq sauce we have at home. read more

BBQ was delicious. Fries were amazing. Waited at the bar while they got my order together. Cool atmosphere. Staff was very friendly. Loved the limeade! Can't wait to go back for breakfast! read more

Service was lacking. Food was average. Wouldn't go out of my way to go back for another try.

So I was reading some reviews and decided to pay Jadeans a visit! Super nice staff and a good portion of food for the price! The bbq was not sauced but had a good smoky flavor and pulled in nice sized pieces, found a few bones but with pulled pork it happens. Their sweet sauce and hot sauces were good and the baked beans were amazing! The buns were fresh, hush puppies were pretty good, the honey butter stepped them up for me. I'm a slaw fan on bbq but theirs was a bit mayonnaisey and the cut of the cabbage was a lot chunkier than I'd prefer but the overall experience was good. Next go we will try the chicken. read more

Went back for a second time on August 22 , 2023 for lunch. Second time was a huge disappointment. Pulled pork sandwich looked and tasted as if someone poured pork grease over the sandwich to add some flavor and moisture. . Totally saturated in pork grease which dripped when picking up the sandwich. My wife's chicken bbq was utterly dry.. The server was a disgruntled looking guy who looked like he didn't want to be there. Won't be back. read more

The brisket was really tender and cooked almost to perfection, but the chicken (which I normally do not get) was out of this world...tender, flavorful and just all around robust. BBQ at it's finest and absolutely hit the spot!!! read more

We had pulled pork that was good to very good. Sauces were OK. We prefer smoky sauce and none of theirs really fell in that category. Sides were good. Nice indoor seating area. Limeade was excellent. We will be back. read more

First thing's first- Amy, the sweet lady behind the counter who took our order, was great. She regularly checked in on us during our meal, and was just nice to talk to. I got the Redneck Sundae mainly because of the name. Absolutely loved it. It was enormous. I was not expecting so much food! You would think the fries under all that bbq, beans and mac & cheese would have gotten soggy, but they really soaked up the flavor. I can't wait to come back again with my husband. He was jealous of the pics I sent him. read more

Flavors of the various bbq's just weren't for me. There lemonade is good. The children was cook well and they have good sides especially the mac n cheese. read more

Great pulled pork sandwich, large portion of flavorful BBQ. I had the original BBQ sauce which was very Carolina and vinegary, nice booths for sit-down and I was amused to find a large squirt bottle of Texas Pete hot sauce on the table. I'll definitely return to try some of their other offerings. read more

I love delicious slow smoked brisket that is tender and flavorful. This sammie was not . Perhaps I should have gotten the brisket on the nachos. The cashier recommended this to me. I'm a big fan of fall apart tender. I was getting the smoky flavor but not the juicy , tender, flavorful, and falling apart. Was I asking to much? I always prefer chopped or cubed brisket as opposed to sliced any day. read more

We aren't from the area but wanted bbq so wanted to give it a try after reading the reviews.. Extremely disappointed. First off, service was so slow for only having a couple customers. Secondly, I worked for a bbq company for years so I know what's good and what's not. This was like getting bbq from a hospital cafeteria! smokehouse Mac n cheese? More like Stouffers frozen mac! The worst part was the pork. I know what leftover bits of pork look like when you get down to the end of a pork butt as it sits in the heat pan and that's what they gave us. The leftover pieces from a pork butt that's sat in greasy juice for hours! The meat was SO dry but drenched in grease! Ordered a 1/2 pound of pork to have some leftover for my husband, I took a few bites and was not pleased. Asked for a box and a little cup to put bbq sauce in, the waiter went and asked his boss (assuming boss) if he could give me a container, her demeanor about it was so rude, she made it such a big deal. Said I would have to pay .75 cents extra for that... I'm sorry what? Dine in customer having to pay an extra .75 cents after a $50 tab. Forget it, not that big of a deal. Oh, and if your kid doesn't like Cajun seasoning on their fries make sure you tell them! They practically dumped a bottle on my son's kids meal. This place really needs help! I cannot believe they have any good reviews at all. Treat your paying customers with respect. Nothing will disappoint you more than spending money on a bad meal. So disappointing! read more

Great menu and sides were awesome. Unfortunately one of the worst brisket sandwiches I've had. Will try pulled pork sandy next time

Jadeans has great BBQ. They have it all and more. Get your fill at Jadeans. Bourbon Beer & BBQ Superstars.

What a hidden gem! I pass this place weekly, but never thought to stop. I went for lunch yesterday and it was EXCEPTIONAL. The staff was so friendly and the ambience made me feel so nostalgic. I had their lunch special which was a loaded hot dog with queso, cole slaw, and more. It came with some incredibly beer battered fries. I also ordered the hushpuppies because I had too right? They were a little heavy on the onions, but still delicious. I am planning to make this a weekly stop. This is southern hospitality. read more

This was the worst Bar B Que I have ever had, the Brisket was cut paper thin and tasted like it was in a warmer for days, there home made banana pie had no Bananas in it and was the worst pie I ever had, in fact I don't think it was homemade as advertised. I would recommend anyone to suffer through food! read more

Food was good but not the best. Service was great. They were out of ribs before lunch time which was disappointing but will try again at sometime. read more

WOW!!! Real BBQ in RVA! Ribs are juicy, brisket is spot on tender and pork has the right amount of smoke flavor. Your belly will be happy! They make their own bbq sauces - 4 flavors. This is a true family owned and run business. Eat in or take out. Definitely worth the extra travel time off I-64 or highway 288. The only thing to make it the perfect bbq experience is a nap afterwards. read more
