    Saint City BBQ
    Donald T.

    I don't know where the "Coffee Shop" came from, but it's been known as Saint City BBQ for a long time, and that's what's on the sign. This place used to be a guilty, late-night pleasure for me when I worked at night 20 years ago. I guess I've become more picky since then. I got the "rib sandwich," which is not actually a sandwich. In the rib shack lingo it is a few ribs served with two slices of white bread. In this case, it is several ribs - really a generous portion. They evidently use large, untrimmed racks of ribs, and it shows. They were REALLY fatty. I'm not a fat-phobe, but this was ridiculous. They were very tender, so I was able to pull them apart and ended up with a pile of fat in the lid of the styrofoam box. Take a look at the photo I uploaded. You can see the large layer of fat in the cut edge of the rib on the right. The seasoning was very mild, and there was no detectable hardwood smoke flavor to them. The BBQ sauce was sweet, and probably comes in gallon jugs from a store. It certainly didn't taste special. The atmosphere is, well, ghetto. Barbed wire, iron bars, boarded up businesses. There are some little tables here and there off the parking lot, but you are a few feet from a six-lane roadway, with cars and trucks roaring by. I don't see much to recommend here, unless you live in the neighborhood or belong to the church.

It's easy to find right off Bird Road with easy strip mall parking. Upon arriving it sets the mood entirely with great fun appropriate decor and a prompt happy welcome. Staff Makes us feel they are glad we came-What a cool place! We settle on the brisket, baby back ribs, potato salad and beans with brisket. Can I tell you EvErYtHiNg was spot on!! And we plan accordingly to try their famous 12 hour smoked Flan dessert!! 1. Smoked Brisket- moist, perfect flavor, hearty portion, tender and high quality meat. Comes with great sauce, which I didn't use since it was so perfect as is. 2. Smoked Baby Back Ribs- Another hit with healthy portion, great flavor, and super meaty. Honestly, just hard to stop eating it! 3. Baked Beans with Brisket- A true meal unto itself! I could've stopped here! Tons of brisket ground into the beans, almost like the best "chili" ever. Flavor is sophisticated smokiness, not the usual sugary sweet restaurant rendition. Yay! 4. Potato salad is FIRE! Fresh perfectly cooked tender white potatoes, cooked carrots & peas add just enough interest and a magical a touch of mayo. Yes please. 5. 12 hour smoked Flan-STAR * of the show, the flan of my dreams! Staff insisted this flan is all that and they are correct! It's LEGIT. We left with a doggie bag, so worth it. Price was for real, you pay for quality. $74, but we brought plenty home. You could get by with a meal for two around $50-60, if you need. Check out their Later week Happy hour sand weekly specials as well as brunch & breakfast. It's all good here! Thanks for following me-happy spring 2026! ~Tami in Miami

The mac & cheese was probably our favorite so if you could only pick one side, I think that would be the right choice. The wings were also very good, but in comparison to everything else, I think we would pass on them next time. The mango daiquiri was amazing and so were other drinks. I wouldn't have known that this place existed if it were not for my coworker. I'm very much looking forward to coming again!

Honestly don't try this place unless you wanna spend $100 on small portions and subpar food . I will not be coming back.

Per my usual attitude my first time somewhere, I wanted to try several items. The owner was super nice and gave multiple suggestions. I ended-up trying a really affordable wing special that comes with rice and beans, slaw, plantain chips and I added mac. I also added brisket, and that came with slaw. The green bean salad comes in one size as an add-on. Okay first, the owner is clearly magic, because there isn't a grill in sight. I had no intention of ordering wings, but these are seriously the best wings I've had anywhere, in a long time (100/10). The rice and beans (10/10), and the rice smelled like it came from abuelita's kitchen. The slaw, oh my goodness (100/10), so simple, and yet perfect! I thought the chips were unnecessary . . . NOT! These are delicious (10/10) and 100% belonged on my plate. The mac . . . well, you can't win 'em all. The brisket was good (9/10) and the sauce is mustard-based, just like I like it, but the star is what got me there, the green bean salad! This was a fresh, exciting dish that is like nothing you've ever had (1,000/10), I won't describe the ingredients here, because I think you should be surprised. I can't wait to go back. This is my new BBQ spot!

    From the service to the food, just amazing. The food is fresh and flavorful. We don't eat pork, but…read morehere, we make an exception, best pork ever.

From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by the smell of smoked meat, and you know you're in for something special. It's a quaint little place with community-style picnic table seating indoors, and you can tell it gets busy during peak hours. The staff treated us like family from the moment we walked in and made us feel right at home. I ordered the baby back ribs and brisket, and both were outstanding. The collard greens were hands down the best I've ever had, and the sweet potato soufflé was just as memorable. Even the Texas toast was incredible--I don't usually talk about bread, but this stuff was fire! The drinks were served in large cups, and the sweet tea was absolutely perfect. Dinner for two came to about $78, which might seem a little high at first, but quality barbecue isn't cheap, and every dollar was worth it. The portions were generous, everything was fresh, and this was easily one of the best barbecue meals I've had. We were so full we almost skipped dessert, but I'm glad we didn't. The homemade Key lime pie was the best we had during our entire trip to the Keys. It was smooth, creamy, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of Key lime flavor, and unlike some of the others we tried, it wasn't gritty at all. It was the perfect ending to an incredible meal. We'll absolutely be back the next time we're in South Florida.
