Great people that provide awesome customer service. Everything was cooked to perfection and their barbecue sauce is something special. I bought food for me and my family it was my first time ordering here, and the food was so good I went back the same night for more. They only open two days a week, this is a store you need to stop by if you want some good barbecue. read more

First time trying out this restaurant after being told about it. So I decided to do the half a chicken with a side of macaroni and cheese and baked beans. It was absolutely delicious. The chicken is also covered with their Carolina/mustard sauce. Absolutely delicious to die for and I'm truly coming back soon. It's a shame that barbecue is really only popular for the most part on the weekends and they only open on the weekends. But I truly understand making people wait for a quality product. Next time I might just just pull up and try the ribs. But I encourage anyone reading this to definitely go out there and try the food. It's quite good! read more

Pete's Famous BBQ - Half Slab of Ribs - Barbeque Near Me - Orlando, Florida

After seeing this gem on YouTube, we knew we had to visit Pete's when we visited the area. It's in a house in a mixed retail and residential area. With large black smokers outside, you can't miss it. We thought we would order a light lunch but we quickly discovered there is no such thing as light at Pete's. LOL! We ordered 2 rib sandwiches and 2 chicken sandwiches along with different desserts. The entrees were served piled WAY high over white bread in a white styrofoam. The bread is sort of hidden but needed to accommodate the tangy sauce we chose. It was too much sauce for my liking but my husband loves sauce so he was happy. Each plate could easily serve 2 people. While the ribs were tender and flavorful, my favorite was the chicken. It was soooo soooo good. You can't go wrong no matter how you choose. While there on that rainy day, traffic was flowing in and out which spoke volumes. We spent 8 minutes from the time we entered, ordered and left. Quick! An oh don't be alarmed by the loud meat chopping in the back. That's the sound of BBQ love, which brought back old memories from our hometown of Memphis. Keep up the good work, Pete. read more

This is your stereotypical hole-in-the-wall joint that excels at one thing - BBQ. My friend and I were at the annual Ligonier conference and stopped by here afterwards for lunch before driving back to Atlanta. Afterwards, I told my friend that it's worth it to drive every year to Ligonier just to eat here. The building and interior is, how shall I say it, quite humble. Don't come here expecting any fancy building. They only allow 3 people inside at a time, so there was a short line outside. They also only take cash. Menu is simple. From the other reviews, it appeared the consensus is just to get the ribs. So, I ordered the rib sandwich. I originally was wondering, "$15 for a sandwich?" Then I saw what they meant by sandwich is two sandwich bread slices hidden under a plateful of ribs. My friend and I agreed this was the best ribs we've ever had. No exaggeration. Meat actually did fall off the ribs, unlike other places that claim that but fail to deliver. Smoke flavor was excellent. Sauce was great and I thought the perfect amount to not drown the smoke flavor. Neither of us could finish it in one sitting. The amount of ribs you get is more than I eat at a rib buffet. To top it all off, we had a great chat with Pete who was overseeing the smoker outside. What a gem Orlando has with this BBQ location. read more

Pete's is a must have, they make some of the best barbecue pork ribs, and chicken. It is so delicious juicy and flavorful. I will definitely recommend them any day anytime the barbecue is always on point. Never a bad visit. Please try them and support if you like delicious scrumptious barbecue!!! read more

As soon as you pull into the parking lot you can smell BBQ. You walk inside it's only takeout option. A dinner plate was $21 and comes with two sides and two slices of white Bread. My only regret when I left was not getting more BBQ or trying the chicken. read more

Hey Pete I met you on Saturday I mentioned I was from LA and I saw your place on YouTube. Anyway I bought the chicken plate damn that was good. 5 star I'm glad to see the community supporting you read more

BEST ribs I've EVER had! My wife and I both ordered the rib sandwich, which consisted of about 5 to 6 large ribs, two slices of white bread, and we chose two different BBQ sauces --- original (red) and tangy (mustard based), BOTH of which were absolutely DELICIOUS. The ribs were seasoned and smoked to perfection. We also tried the mac and cheese and potato salad, both of which were very good. Even the lemonades we ordered were delicious. I've had some good ribs in my day, but these were by FAR the best. read more

The pictures were taken after we already dug into it because the smell was too intoxicating to wait to take proper photos. It tastes absolutely delicious! The chicken is tender, the sauce hits the spot and isn't too overwhelming, and the bread in the bottom finishes it off. This is definitely one of the best bbq spots I've been too. Better then the chain bbq spots in town. read more

The BBQ Ribs are the best !!! Service was a little slow at first but then they picked up and we had an amazing experience thanks for everything will come back one day read more

Hit or miss. sometimes you get old meat sometimes you get fresh. I wouldn't recommend this place

I would like to say that the customer service is wonderful ! The prices for the ribs and chicken I think is pretty fair... my ribs were so tender and falling off the bone, I also got the chicken as well which was also delicious but If I had to choose I'd choose the ribs ! I also ordered potato salad and collard greens. I felt the potato salad was a little on the sweet side but the collard greens was on point ! I live in Davenport but I'd definitely drive to Orlando just for This bbq ! read more

Pete's Famous BBQ - Rib and chicken combo - Barbeque Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I was traveling from the west coast and someone on YouTube said we had to try this place. Holy Smokes this place was one of the best BBQ places I've had in my life!!! Ribs and chicken were amazing, and that homemade yellow tangy bbq sauce is something you gotta try. Additionally these folks were very kind. Just a heads up no where to sit so you gotta take it to go but I would 1000% recommend this place, and that's coming from someone who knows a thing or two about smoking bbq. Quality offset smokers and white oak lined up cooking in the parking lot, very impressive!!! read more

Damm good ribs and chicken cooked to perfection, went with the tangy sauce and was not disappointed. Had the cheesiest Mac and cheese and collard greens. Great service, although it is more of a grab n go type of place, unless you want to eat in your car which just the smell permeating in the car made me not want to wait till I get home. And a great selection of desserts. My girlfriend had the lemon cake and I had the sweet potato pie. Don't be fooled by the outside or the neighborhood to pass on this barbecue would be a mistake. read more

We loved the ribs! We had the rib sandwich with original and tangy sauce. The homemade lemonade, Mac and cheese, and potato salad were all delicious. Don't let the small house fool you...big taste and flavor coming through. We arrived in a lull but it hopping when we left. Would definitely return when we're back in town. They were taking Zelle and cards when we went. read more

We went here late one night after an event. This is the best food in the world. The whole world

Highly recommended and excellent ribs made like the best backyard bbq, without the wait. Like the best foods in the world, you will find that the quality is best when you're not paying attention to decor. This is Orlando's best , in business over 20 years read more

The Best BBQ in Orlando hands down! The amount of BBQ is plentiful & the sauces are very tasty.

Pete's Famous Rids is located in the Orlando's Washington Shores area...if you go just look for SMOKE trail, there is usually three large smokers outside near the parking area (see my photos and video of the smokers/grills) This is like a Ole School Street Corner BBQ joint like you grew up with back in the day but you actually go in this little red-yellow looking house to order your rids Togo. Now many of you reading this are here at the theme parks on a vaca and have been eating lots of fast foods. So you may wanna surprise and treat your family with the best ribs in Orlando...you can get a full slab of freaking fall off the bone ribs for about $35.... this is a rib shack with a very limited selection of sides items. In full candor you may not find Pete's aesthetically pleasing when you first see it but your taste buds will find the bbq tantalizing. Also they are only open on Friday & Saturday and I don't think they accept credit cards. read more

Ambiance: 3.5 out of 10; Service: 8 out of 10; Food: 9.5 out of 10; Price: $ out of $$$$; Covid Safety: Masks required, enforced. 6 ft not adhered to. Listen!! I want to give this 5 stars so bad but can't just because of the sides. The meat here is exceptional. EXCEPTIONAL!! The quantity is exceptional. The service is great. The sides are okay but they're priced high for the quantity you get. I ordered mac n cheese for $3 and got less than a half of a cup as a serving. Its the only negative. But if you want some ribs, this is where you need to pull up. My bf and I normally order chicken and ribs to-go and just make our own sides. Even with the sides, I don't care, this is my fave bbq place in Orlando. Did I mention how yum the ribs are????? Safe space for people of color. read more

Sooooo Good. Some of the best BBQ I've had in YEARS!! I only wish the Mac and Cheese portion were larger. Even with inflation it's still reasonably priced. Definitely recommend. read more

This is the RIB SPOT! You know the location is legit when you see the smoke coming up from the grills outside! When you get here, there is plenty of parking and if you get here at the right time, you can be in and out. The gentleman that is setting up the plates will ask for what you;d like, and the menu is kind of scattered on the, but the common orders such as the sandwiches and ribs are right in front. The ribs are $30 for a full slab, and let me tell you, these are your average ribs that you get at your normal restaurant. A full slab takes up two to-go boxes and comes with two slices of bread. If you need a visual of how big these ribs are, look at my pictures and you'll get my perspective. You can get one of their sauces added for $1, and BRING CASH! THEY DO NOT ACCEPT DEBIT OR CREDIT. If you would like to get down on some huge delicious ribs, make a trip, they are open late, but only on the weekends. read more

They gave me a mountain of ribs. They were tough though. The mustard sauce was good. I will give them another try.

Felt like some nice juicy ribs for lunch and Pete's did not let us down. The portions are as huge as the flavor. Ribs just fell of the bone. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back. Thanks Pete's. read more

Best ribs (and chicken) I've had to date. I love Pete's food, so must I have to ration myself. His delicious ribs make you want to sing while you eat. Always tender, juicy and flavorful. The servings are great, enough to enjoy the next day too. Reasonably priced as well. If you want extra sauce its available but these ribs don't need it! read more

The ribs are to die for! They don't accept debit cards. Only cash. But is worth the try. I come here at least twice a month. read more

Eh. The food it good ribs are bomb but they kinda skimpy on the sauce for the past few years now. Before man they use to let it almost swim in their sauce. read more
