    This is one of those places where if you blink while driving along you'll probably miss it, if you're going north it's just to the right when you go over the bridge in Port Richey. I had the Brisket dinner and there was plenty of food and the price was great. Not much seating, I think they had a couple of picnic tables but people probably mostly do take-out for here. They had 3 smokers running which added to the experience/smell and so you knew the food was fresh and done nicely.

    REALLY GOOD BBQ! Although this place is also short staffed they provided the best to-go service they could. The day I tried their BBQ one of their main meat freezers were out of order so they were only serving Pork and Beef brisket that day with choice of Potato Salad and Cole slaw only. We purchased the Family Pack meal which comes with a pound of meat, two sides, and bread. Also bought drinks from the cooler outside. They have many choices of BBQ sauce to choose from. The Tennessee flavor was pretty good- sweet yet a pinch of bitter taste and zing of spice. Good! We will definitely be back- I want to try other items on the menu. They are decently priced for today's BBQ price point in the area. The parking area is interesting- cute decoratively set up with smokers and metal pig shaped static statue like art. Cute for the whole family. No indoor seating, picnic tables outside and porch area only.

    Damn good bbq! I would choose this over any other place around here, hands down. We got wings and brisket... (plus sides of mac-n-cheese, beans, & coleslaw)... best I've ever had for both. Puts Dr. Rolf's in Muskegon to shame. I've never had wings cooked so perfectly... every bit fell clean off the bone. The two gentlemen working were sweet as could be. The gentleman taking my order was patient with my indecisiveness and helpful with recommendations. The gentleman at the window was kind, patient and helpful, as well. Thank you, guys! You definitely have a returning customer!

    Ordered from here today will definitely be back. Owner was great and said if you call ahead he can make some without rub (need no sodium). Had the brisket with a side of mild bbq. My brother had pulled pork with Mac and cDELICIOUS!! Def support Robert! (I forgot to take pictures of what we ordered as we ate it pretty quick) May 24th update: stopped here yesterday on the way home from one of the state parks had the prime rib dinner, it didn't disappoint.

    Absolutely the most delicious baby back ribs we've ever eaten! Roadside location off US 19 in Port Richey, Florida. No "fancy surroundings".....Just awesome ribs! Robert owns the place and his crew grill the ribs over wood burning pits!

    I got the 1/2 slab baby back ribs with mac & cheese and baked beans. Amazing. Got the mild and honey barbecue sauces. Great food with even greater service. Will definitely come back.

    Amazing place. Next level service.

    Let.Me.Tell. You. Robert's was worth the trip all the way from Columbus, OH. Brisket and ribs, come on. Cornbread, get out of here. Food so good, make you want to slap your neighbor Jerry and ask for your lawnmower back. Beef BrisketBeef Ribs

    Good food every time. Not to mention an amazing member of the community. Robert's was feeding people during the hurricanes.

    Love this place. Best BBQ I have had since I left Kentucky, and we know BBQ! Quick service at a good price. Visit at least once a month.

    Down and Dirty: beautiful views, efficient service, decent food and fair pricing…read more I was on vacation with family and friends and was looking for a local spot on the water for dinner and found this place. Making reservations on open table as quick and efficient. When we arrived, our tables put together and ready for us and we were sat immediately. A decent menu with good variety and fair pricing. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food. My husband had the stacked turkey club sandwich and he thought it was delicious. I had the tuna poke nachos and the tuna was very good but the wonton nacho chips were stale tasting. I don't know if they were just left out for too long or if they were over fried, but that would be my only complaint. We chose to dine outside and watch the beautiful sunset with the cool breeze, brushing our faces while we sipped on our cocktails and enjoyed lively discussion. If we were in the area again, I would likely come here at sunset

    Whiskey Joe's came highly recommended by several locals, so I was really excited to give it a try…read more The atmosphere is definitely the highlight--it's right on the water with beautiful views, a fun beachy vibe, and a great place to relax. Unfortunately, our dining experience didn't quite live up to the recommendations. We ordered appetizers and entrees at the same time, but our food took about 45 minutes to arrive, and our appetizers didn't come out until the exact same time as our entrees. Since we had ordered simple appetizers like chips and queso and ceviche, it was a little disappointing that they weren't served first. When I asked about it, I was told the kitchen was backed up. Our server was pleasant, but she wasn't very attentive throughout the meal. There were a few times we had to get up and find her just to get drink refills or an update on our food. I completely understand that restaurants can have off days, and even the people I was dining with--who visit often and usually rave about this place--mentioned that this experience was out of the ordinary. As for the food, the ceviche wasn't my favorite, and my shrimp tacos were a bit over-fried. Overall, I left feeling disappointed, especially considering how highly the restaurant had been recommended. That said, the location and atmosphere are absolutely beautiful, and based on how much the locals seem to love it, I'm hoping this was just an off day rather than the norm.
