    This was DISGUSTING, this was my SECOND time going there trying to give them another chance it's just not it. the food was salty, cold. their service was very good. this place was nice and clean and very full LONG LINES though.

    Did you say SOUL FOOD?! Cause it definitely fed my soul for sure. This is the kind of food you can't usually find in restaurants and would have to cook at home! Luckily for us Ribs and Soul has a technique for the perfect meal that makes you feel at home or at your grandmas house! DELICIOUS AND HEFTY SERVINGS FULL OF FLAVOR AND COLOR! Literally everything I ordered was top tier and affordable! I will definitely be back and will be recommending it to everyone I know who's looking for some GREAT eatin! Thank you for the opportunity to try your delicious food! The service was fast and the food came out hot! The menu is straight to the point and you know what you're getting like I said it might even be more than what you thought it was going to be! The inside of the restaurant smelled yummy and was extremely clean! There is no seating area so it's definitely a to go spot! Sitting right next to a gas station for any other necessities you had in mind! A one stop shop! Get it while it's hot!

    Pork chops 4 piece. Thin but tender no seasoning.

    Ambiance was ok. Would like to have seen just a lil more. Just a bunch of red every where. Service was good. They greeted you early and kept you up to date on the process. Food was ok at best. I ordered pork chops for myself with Mac n Cheese and yams and greens. The dinner came with 4 pork chops and 2 sides for 18.99. I ordered my wife a half slab and it came with man n cheese and baked beans. The review: Pork chops were tender however no seasoning whatsoever. Ribs were decent but the sauce tasted like Open Pit. Mac N cheese not seasoned at all. Baked Beans my wife says were over cooked and extremely stiff. Yams were extremely oily and not sweet. My pup loved them though. Greens were a bit gritty for me. The cornbread was decent. Overall I would give them a 5.5 out of 10. Don't know if this was a bad day, so I may give them another shot in the future.

    Absolutely disgusting ribs. There is a layer of fat all the way across the entire slab and the meat that is edible is dryer than the Sahara. The Mac and cheese was hideous and so was the potato salad. I will never be back, you guys should be ashamed of yourselves

    The food here is so good. The menu covers all the basics you would want for good soul food, dressing, greens, mac and cheese, pound cake, etc. Fast carry out and very clean lobby. Located right outside a residential neighborhood of Mt. Clemens, off of Harrington and Gratiot. I ordered the baked chicken dinner with dressing, mac and cheese. I also ordered the ribs with dressing and greens. Cornbread came with both dinners. My Dad and I enjoyed our meals, the seasoning was on point too, unlike a lot of bbq places in Macomb County. This place has only been open for 3 years, I totally didn't know it existed because I usually drive to Detroit from northern Macomb county to get good soul food (that I didn't have to make myself). I'll definitely be coming back to try out more of the menu.

    this is the third time i've ordered from this place. the first time was great. excellent food and wonderful portions. second time the missed an entire meal in my order.. i thought it was a mistake. things happen, people are busy.. however, i tried again and AGAIN they missed an entire meal and the ribs have this weird oil on them.. not bbq sauce like expected.. if i could give 0/5 i would. never ordering again very disappointed :(

    Grrrr! It pains me to write reviews about food when you wish the place would succeed! However, had I paid attention to the lady who said Mac N Cheese was bland and her chicken was soggy I would not have wasted 12.70 today! I ended up passing this place twice trying to figure out how to get in so that I could park. So it's not in a convenient location. I arrived and it smelled soo good! I couldn't wait to taste the sides and the fried chicken! I ordered two lunch specials so I wouldn't have to go back out later on in the evening, I had Mac n cheese and collards as my sides and both meals came with cake like dry cornbread. The fried chicken wings were soggy like the grease wasn't hot enough to make it crispy just cooked. They were also super bland not seasoned at all!! The collards were sweet which shocked me because I thought they were supposed to be savory! The Mac n cheese was the worst of all my foods. Spooned into a styrofoam container then to be microwaved and my styrofoam melted onto the Mac! So it left a weird taste! The Mac was also really mushy like it had been reheated several times not al dente nor just right damn near like mashed potatoes! Does this place need work? YES! Take this as constructive! Increase the heat on your fryer, fry the chicken longer to get crispy skin because I don't know not one person who likes soft chicken skin! Up your seasoning game on your collards let them soak in ham hocks and oxtail! Remove your noodles at least 3-4 minutes before they get done if you plan on re-heating th to avoid mushy Mac n cheese and for the love of souls food, use some damn seasoning!!!!!!! Update: to fellow Yelper who is discrediting my review, this isn't the platform to be used to bash someone else's review. I said what I said. Everything I posted on my review was based on mY experience NOT yours.

    If you are looking for soul food in Northern Macomb county, this is the place to be! They are only open Friday-Sunday. The customer service is very kind. Expect a 20-25 minute wait for your food so call ahead. I will be back for the same meal but I would love to try their yams. This portion size was perfect for 1 person. There is minimal parking so I parked at the gas station. The food was perfect for a meal before work.

    Square One is one of better local pizzerias around. If you couldn't tell by the name, square pizzas…read moreare its specialty. Breads, salads, subs, and wings are on the menu, as well. The cheese bread is a nice compliment to your pizza of choice. What makes the bread more enjoyable though are the housemade ranches. The options are classic or "raging." The raging ranch definitely has a kick, but it's tolerable. As for the pizza, I have 2 favorites, the chicken coop and mama's meatball pizza. The meatball pizza's generous amount of meatballs and parmesan cheese sprinkled on top make it reminiscent of a homemade pasta dinner. BBQ chicken pizzas typically feature shredded chicken. What I like about the chicken coop, is that it features bite-sized pieces of fried chicken instead. Regardless of which pizza you order, I recommend the "all corner" option. Any time I can support an independently owned business, like Square One, over a franchise, I will. The food I've had has been exceptional, and is also competitively priced.

    Review #503…read more 11/30/2024 Do you love the taste of Broasted Chicken, Potatoes, & Saucy Tender Ribs that fall off the bone when you rip into that first bite??? You must order carryout or Eat the delicious foods cooked perfectly here at Big Joe's Chicken & Ribs. (Seafood too) I've bought different dinners to go on the weekends when My friends come over to relax in the basement at the bar and enjoy a tasty and satisfying meal with combos from this yummy business. Vicki and her crew of talented cooks and other staff work very hard all day long to fill orders and walk-ins too. I would place your order the day before an event or call in the morning the day and night to pick up a carry out order that is so Finger licking good and with their Fantastic Flavors! BTW: I still have not met BIG JOE Yet! :-) My photos attached from different orders placed for parties shows the large combo dinners in nicely packed containers with large portions too. Never overcooked foods! The sides are choices of broasted potatoes or french fries to compliment an order of chicken, ribs or fish. YES the fish fillets are so crispy and lightly battered and crunch when you taste. Their homemade sauces on ribs and sandwiches are sweet and delicious with sassy tastes! Their prices are reasonable and again portion sizes are LARGE so well worth the money! Stop in a grab their flyer ad with special prices on meal combos! Order In Advance / Ahead during celebrations or holidays to make sure you get your cravings and sides to complete your lunch or dinner meals. Food is fresh, Seasoned perfectly plus high quality. The staff team work hard to please dinner for one, two orders, family meals, or party animal feasts! This comfort eats has dine-in or carryout for Chicken & Ribs. They surely beat Chicken Shack by far and is nearby in the neighborhood on Hayes Rd. and 23 Mile in Shelby Township.

Everyone enjoyed their food and the food sizing were perfect especially with the pricing (average pricing for bar food). I ordered a philly steak sub w/ seasoned fries and along with chips/spinach dip (that was a meal itself and it came with 2 breadsticks) - it was so good. What i did notice was my friend order a side salad for additional $1.99 but her friend ordered a salad as meal which cost about $15.00 - i would say they looked like the same size; so be aware. Plenty of parking! If i had to go back i'll definitely would but the distance from my house i wouldn't go out my way. There are ALOT of TVs with music videos and sports; you can barely hear the music playing which is good i guess especially since you want to be able to touch to your friends. Happy Eating!

I tried a small order of the boneless garlic parmesan wings. They were pretty good, standard wings. I also ordered the habanero burger. The fried cream cheese patty thing was unique and amazing!

I also learned they are owned by the same company as Texas Roadhouse and hear that the inside has similar loud and family friendly vibes.
