Our first time here. We were confused where to go to order because there are a lot of small buildings. Well duh - slap me in the face with a big sign that says WELCOME ORDER HERE. lol The owner at the ordering window was so friendly and helpful since we told him it was our first visit. The meats we tried were great (sausage, ribs, burnt ends) but I'm here to say don't sleep on the sides!!!! The yellow rice, corn and even just the rolls were so dang good! We'll be back to try more! read more

The food is amazing! We ordered the brisket and the chicken wings and neither disappointed - fell apart and so smokey. The sauces are okay, but I personally don't think they even need them as they just mask the flavor of the meat. The interaction on the other hand was less than to be desired. The owner took our order and checked us out. Us being there seemed to be more of an inconvenience and annoyance than anything. And asking for other things on the menu that they didn't have didn't make it better. Just an overall gruff interaction from his part. read more

We move to Port Richey in late February, and Robert's BBQ was the first restaurant we tried. We were in a hotel so we did pick up, very fast service. The pulled pork was fantastic and the rib's had terrific smoke flavor. Collard greens, potato salad and slaw are always great. The last time we went the smoke flavor was missing on the pulled pork , but the ribs were still amazing. I have to try some of the smoked desserts. There is indoor dining available. Ample parking. I hope Grandma Robert's health is continuing to improve. read more

Amazing family run barbecue - no fuss business with delicious food freshly prepared. Burnt ends were tender and delicious, tender ribs not overdone, generous and flavorful sides including Mac and cheese, beans and collards. read more

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. read more

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. read more

I cannot rave enough about the amazing BBQ Robert's puts out. We come to the Tampa area a few times a year and always make a point to visit Robert's. The best bet is to get the family meal -- pick a few meats, and a few sides, and you'll leave with more than enough food and at a decent price. My wife and daughter rave about the chicken and me and my son cannot get enough of the brisket. Some days they have dirty rice -- ours happened to be with chicken and it was excellent. You have to try the smoked mac 'n cheese!\ read more

This is our favorite BBQ place close to home. The service is quick and we are never disappointed with the quality of food. My only complaint is we asked for extra sauce when using an app to deliver we ended up with no sauce. Thankfully we had our own in the fridge but we like theirs a lot. We usually go ourselves so that was just a one off and wouldn't blame them on it. Check them out if you love good BBQ! read more

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! read more

We've been wanting to try Robert's for a while and finally made it in and sure glad we did. We ordered the rib plate with beans and dirty rice, pulled pork plate with Mac & cheese and corn. Everything was delicious! The service was fast and friendly. The food was tender, and well seasoned. The restaurant was clean and inviting. Loved the family feel. We will be back! read more

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. read more

The best/fairest way to review this place is to say it was reasonable food. It's New Port Richey 5 star and 3/3.5 stars anywhere else. Have to be fair to the place and say it's one of the better meals I ate in that town. I've had BBQ in the best places in Memphis, St Louis; Dallas, The ribs were well prepared...best of what I had. Burnt ends were OK and the brisket was below average. Sides were reasonable, not special - not sending them back to the kitchen. If you have a hankering for BBQ, give them a shot. If you don't seek out the best BBQ spots in the country, you'll probably leave reasonably satisfied:) read more

Oh my goodness! I'm from Memphis, Tennessee and I know good bbq. Well let me tell you this is as good as it gets! Moist, smoky, lean, pulled pork that is fantastic ! Way to go, Robert's !! read more

You get 5 little pieces of what they call 1/2 pd burnt ends for 15.00. What the rest is is rice. They forgot our wings went back they said we will give you 15 we got 12. read more

We've tried this place several times and my husband loves the shredded pork. I initially, loved the brisket but only the first time. I bought a pound of brisket and Maybe one single piece was good but the rest was tough and dry. We basically threw it away. It's a huge hit and miss there and, recently, it's been mostly misses. Major bummer as the first time went it was beyond incredible. Probably won't go back any time soon. We tried the burnt ends again and they're so dry you can't eat them. Also, their customer service really isn't that good. read more

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

Great Food! Brisket is soooo good! The owner and his family are great people. Try it you'll love it! It's outdoors. read more

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 read more

Awesome food, our first time! Our Eye Dr. Referred us and we are so happy we tried you. We had ribs, potato salad, & baked beans for our Memorial Day. We will definitely be back, Thank you , Rose&Michael New Port Richey,Florida read more

Yes, a very modest outcropping of several freshly painted brick red and black buildings nicely set back from Highway 19, on their own tree lined " block" AND this GIANT black cast iron SMOKER right square in the middle of his entire property belching huge plumes of wood smoke non stop! Robert is a perfectionist with all aspects of his cooking - - which cuts of meat, picking the meatiest RIB sides I have EVER eaten! Brisket seasoned perfectly, rich rich deep Smokey flavor permeating each juicy piece with almost NO fat. To die for, really, hhhmmmm. FRESH salmon baked perfectly in the smoker where each piece falls from the fork flaking gently, super moist, subtle flavors. The sausage is VERY rich with a powerful Smokey flavor. Haven't yet tried the chicken, but the photos of the smoked chicken wings looked ENTICING.... wanted to buy that too! The home made baked beans and ESP the FAB dirty rice are super delicious!!! About 6 different barbecue sauces too. And folk rave about the " burnt ends" which we JUST discovered on today's visit via their NEW comprehensive menu. We discovered Robert's completely by accident 4 years ago after a round of golf. He has this giant statue of a grand hog in the front which along with his entire property, really appealed to us. And I just learned from a coworker that her husband, a top chef in Sarasota, along with his other Chef friends, all know of Robert's super delicious barbecue. Her chef husband said," chefs all over via word of mouth, go eat at Robert's." It is a long 4 hour car ride round trip, but when we have multiple days off together we IMMEDIATELY jump into the car and drive to Robert's! Enjoy! read more

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.

Ever since they have opened we have been a customer. The food is outstanding, the service I have received has always been outstanding, and when you are there it feels like you're at a family reunion!!! We have ordered holiday dinners, and everything is a must!! I enjoy visiting you every time it feels like you're at home!! See you real soon!!! read more

We did not receive our sauces and we are also missing baked beans. The rest was really good

Went Roberts today mainly to try their Dirty rice, they were rude, and I ordered a family meal,with dirty rice and Collards ,and no dirty rice was given, They gave us the yellow rice. Very disappointed. Thier brisket was good and ,but I do better Collards. read more

Absolute legend of the BBQ game. This man easily competes with some of the best. I would definitely recommend to anybody in the area.

Definitely not a great looking place but oh my the food was absolutely delicious. Ordered a family pack 2 meats and 2 sides and a rack of ribs . A lot of good for 2 people but we had tried a few things at a friends so we knew we'd like it . Brisket and pulled pork, Mac and cheese , slaw and corn bread . Huge portions and a beautiful rack of ribs . You can sit outside or inside in a little building with sort of old decor but it was immaculate. Everything was great except slaw was a little ordinary but fresh and crispy . Ate till we were full and then packed up leftovers and we ate most of what's left for dinner and still have enough for maybe 2 sandwiches. Great food and all of it was less than $45 . Friendly people too !! read more

Can't even lie I'm there once a week lol... keep doing your thing because those fall of the vibe smoke wings

For three hungry guys this was perfect. Working all day needed something to fill us up. And it was delicious!

We have been passing this place everyday for the last few years since we moved here . Finally went. So glad we did. Was so Worth going ! Great food. Big portions. Price was not bad !! Will be back soon read more

I wanted to highlight this wonderful business during Black History Month. Robert and his crew smoke the best brisket around, and they do collard greens perfectly. Whenever I want Southern BBQ I go to Robert's. During this month if you are supporting African American owned businesses give them a try you won't regret it! And yes they smoke other meats as well. read more

If you haven't been to Roberts Smokin BBQ you just don't know what you are missing. The open atmosphere with the Smokey smells makes your mouth water. We ordered for the whole day as it's football Saturday. We ordered pulled pork sandwiches, slab of ribs, smoked wings, corn bread, and sides of beans and coleslaw. Robert greeted us and Nealiyan helped us order. Very friendly. Now the really best part, the pork was juicy and a large serving(we took all to go and I really appreciated that the meat was separated from the bread) the ribs truly fall off the bones and the wings were juicy with a great Smokey flavor. We chose the honey BBQ and it was perfect. If you are in New Port Richey, don't pass this up. We will be frequent customers. read more

Having done competition BBQ for many years, and spoiled by great BBQ, their are very few places that return to. So when I want BBQ and not firing up my smoker, it's off to Roberts for my BBQ fix! They are a family owned and operated, BBQ shack, that takes pride it what they produce, and it is consistently good BBQ! My thanks to Mr. Robert for providing great BBQ nearby! read more

I ordered a pound of beef brisket. Honestly, it was OK didn't seem to be the highest quality very stringy and the sauce no good. I will say that the interaction with the help was a one star! Guy slides the window open looking at a cell phone doesn't say hello. Say how I can help you didn't even make eye contact with me stood quietly for a good 30 seconds until I asked about the brisket and how it comes. I'll drive-by next time. read more

Had a family gathering for 10 and got barbecue from Robert's. Food was fantastic - wings and pork were great - smokey and tender. Mac and cheese and the cold slaw were both excellent. I don't think I have ever had better barbecue , and they gave us too much food! Robert is a very nice guy. Highly recommend. read more

Wow talk about people with a passion for smoking meat and barbecue. What a treat to pull up and see 4 or 5 smokers going at once. As first timers who drove up from Palm Harbor, we went for the 2 meat combo plate and between us got the sausage, burnt ends, brisket and beef rib. The brisket was very moist with lots of meat, burnt ends were yummy but that Rib was fall off the bone seasoned perfection. Truly the best beef rib I've had in the Bay Area and I think I know good Que thanks to it being one of my Husband's favorite food groups;) Our sides of baked beans, cole slaw and potato salad were all tasty but again the star was that rib. I could have eaten at least 3 if we had them. So if you order them I'd say go for the slab. I think it's only $4 more than the 1/2 slab. It's eat at picnic benches in a parking lot but friendly service and a value for the generous portions. Even though it was busy and obviously popular with the locals, it was nice that the owner who really is named Robert introduced himself and said a quick "hi". As Arnold said in Terminator I'll be back;) read more

Do you like dry rubbed ribs? How about burnt ends? Southern style brisket and pulled pork? If you've said yes, or you're beginning to drool, this is the place for you. Hands down the best BBQ I have ever had. The ribs were smoked to perfection, snappy and dry yet juicy and moist. The burnt ends were also perfect. Covered in their "Candi Sauce" and served over rice. No, these ribs and meats don't come slathered in all kinds of sauce, they are dry rubbed and smoked, low and slow. If you're expecting saucy ribs this isn't the place for you. NOTE: when I visited the inside seating was not yet open, but that is the key word... "Yet" because they are opening it any day they said. read more

I hadn't noticed this BBQ on US 19 until I saw the smoke rising from the smokers. Like Wimpy smelling burgers cooking, I had to stop in and give it a try. They have a friendly staff and owner. I decided on the pulled pork dinner wth two sides for $7.00 and Coke in a can for a buck. I had Mac n Cheese that was very warm but not hot and potato salad that was nice and cold. It was really good but they were small portions. The pork was not a small portion and was very tasty. The pork could have been a little hotter. Mine was just a little warm. I'll be back and try a combo. read more
