The ribs ... omg you have to try them. I went here for dinner looking for something filling. This did not disappoint. I ended up getting the sampler, which was delicious. The citrus chipotle bbq sauce had an amazing flavor and good kick to it. The sampler came with ribs, chicken tenders, pulled pork or chicken, and two sides, which I chose mac and cheese and sweet potato fries. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone good. Very tender and flavorful. The chicken tenders had an amazing crust to them that went well with the sauce. You can choose to have the tenders mixed with the sauce or on the side. The pulled chicken was just okay, could have been a little more flavored and not as doused in sauce. Overall, it was good. Definitely will be back if I'm in the mood for ribs and I'm in town again. read more

Shane's Rib Shack - All this for a reasonable price - Barbeque Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

First time there to eat. The cashier was very nice. However, I was VERY, disappointed in my chicken sandwich. I thought it would be shredded chicken, but it was big clumps of it which was very dry and tasteless and hard to chew. I added a lot of extra bbq sauce just to get it down because I was so hungry. I had a salad as a side dish, it was okay, mainly lettuce, one tomatoe and two pieces of cucumber, a very little cheese. Sorry, probably won't go back, if I decide to it won't be for the chicken. read more

The good thing is that they do have tasty ribs. The bad thing is they don't always have ribs

So many good things where do I begin. We had a reservation for 11 (they don't usually take reservations). We went in and checked early in the day to make sure all was well. When we returned the waitress recognized us and came outside to get us as we were in line. She sat us immediately. She took our order and got our drinks. When we ordered our food she explained and answered questions. The food came out quickly. The have a variety of flavors of sauces to choose from and everything was very tasty. Alejandra was our server and she did an amazing job from start to finish. She refilled drinks and cleared dishes immediately. She was super friendly and very personable. She seemed to enjoy wheat she was doing. She went above and beyond to make sure our dinner went off without a hitch. read more

Ordered catering for 25 people for lunch today. The food was wonderful and plentiful. Thank you Shane's for the excellent service.

I'd rather somebody reach out about my car's extended warranty than eat here again. I was hoping for tender chicken and quality beef and that's not what I received. The softest part of the meal were the corn chips before they hit our table and the wings aren't worth their weight in gold. The skin was as crunchy as the nachos should have been(they are suppose to be buffalo wings) and the service was next to none. They were almost an imitation of Hooters but subtract the beer, good food, and any visible service. Btw ranch is extra. read more

Worst Shane's I've ever been to,. I'm from Georgia and the ones there are top notch. None of the food taste the same . I'm also a chef and I'm extremely disappointed read more

Updating my review: This place is decent but they won't take orders over the phone and make you order online. Then they charge you MORE online and when asked about it, the guy shrugs me off. What the heck? That's crappy customer service and a scam. read more

Over all: Good service Family atmosphere Tasty food I finally had the time to stand in Shane's ever-present line from outside. I was excited to see what all the hype was all about! I was friendly greeted by the cashier who was very helpful with giving my group recommendations on what to order. After just a few minutes wait, we took the food to go and eat outside. It was HOT to the touch and messy--everything you expect from barbecue. The portion sizes we're good and priced reasonably. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because the food was delicious, but not the absolute best I've ever had. I'd definitely come back again though! read more

SUMMARY - Crok-Pot tasting bbq, overpriced and more expensive if ordering online. I was in the mood for some bbq, specifically some brisket. I have been to Shane's many years ago and I could not remember what I had try and if I liked it(strange), most likely because it wasn't memorable. So I decided to give it a try. I tried the night before but it had a 1 hour wait on food so I assumed it must be worth it and came back the next day. I ordered using their online service unbeknownst to me that their prices are higher online. When I got there I mentioned to the manager that I was charged more and he didn't really care just told me online is more expensive. To summarize the brisket tasted as if someone had cooked it in a crockpot with bbq sauce. It was bad. Overcooked, lacked smoke and salt. Paid $9.91 for 1/2 LB of bad brisket and two slices of bread. I now have learned my lesson and will not come back again. read more

Baby Back ribs looked like spare ribs and were very fatty. Mac and cheese was cold and gritty. Potato salad was bland. Beans tasted like they came out of a can. read more

I drive for UberEats and pick up here all the time. The place was busy, to be expected on a Friday night. But there wasn't really any structure to the setup and pretty much chaos The guy who took our order rushed us and seemed like he had didn't want to be there. We chose to dine in the restaurant. We were able to get our own drinks which is awesome. Machine had absolutely NO ice, my boyfriend told them at the front that no ice was being dispensed. They said they would fix it. That didn't happen. I asked 2 different people if they could just fill our cups with ice in the back they said they would return to get the cups and didn't. The food was brought out quickly but was COLD both of our meals! I mean not even lukewarm. The cheese on my boyfriends burger wasn't even melted. By this time we were both irritated at the experience thus far. We got to-go boxes so we could heat it up at home. What I tasted was delicious but wanted to eat it hot. All in all I think this place has the potential to be awesome. I understand a place being busy and all that but greeting a customer shouldn't be a hard thing. It takes less energy to be pleasant then it does being rude. Honestly I would try it here again because it just could have been an off night it happens. But definitely disappointed for the money spent and what we got. read more

This is my first ever review, I had to create an account because I was so incredibly upset with the customer service from this establishment. First, when trying to order online, their menu is missing multiple items and when trying to call this particular location, the people who answered the phone did not have any solution and would not take any orders over the phone Second, and my largest complaint, when going to order in store, upon the completion of my order they showed me the ticket and they had gotten my order wrong. I know I had ordered this specific item on their menu because this was the item not located on their online menu and I had specifically come into the store to order this item. When the lady who took my order came out, I informed her that she had got my order wrong. The worker replied with, "That's okay, we'll replace the order, but you DID order this." The implication being that I didn't know what I ordered. She then proceeded to mutter something under her breath and spun back around. Then multiple managers had to come to to fix the order on their machine. Not one of them came to apologize or ask if there was anything else they could do. One of the worst, most embarrassing restaurant experience , and downright repulsive behavior by staff that I have ever experienced. Don't go here. read more

Went here last week and its small if you want to eat inside but theres a reason its always packed...because the food is real darn good!!!! I was impressed with everything! Thank you!! read more

I used to go here a long time ago and the service was always good but i haven't been here in years. Unfortunately this experience was terrible. The manager was a sweetheart but he needs to fire those useless servers. Theres one young lady with reddish pink hair and she frowns at everyone. So, she brought the wrong food to our table, Slammed the plate and walked away in her hissy pissy energy. Then when i got my food it was raw. I had to wait even longer and when the waitress dropped off my food...Again...she.. slammed my plate to the table. The manager sent me complimentary fries while i waited for my food but heck, i paid $40 for 2 meals and a drink and i tipped. Cmon Shanes get your stuff together! You're better than this. read more

Went here tonight for the first time, place was packed, figured it must be good. Absolutely inedible! Who taught these people how to do BBQ... I'll tell you who, NO ONE! I'm beyond pissed that I wasted $77 plus a tip here. Went in about 4:30, got home, fam tasted a little of everything, no one liked any of it, so into the garbage it all went. The ribs, which were so overcooked the first bite cut the gums of my mouth, were also gross. The mac and cheese is just flavorless, the chicken is chopped chicken, not a whole piece and it taste like sugar. The original and spicy BBQ sauces were disgusting. The peach cobbler had 3 peaches, for the large size, and it had no flavor. There are these spices, called nutmeg, cinnamon, and something called brown sugar that you can use to make cobbler, ya outta try it sometime. Chicken tenders were burned. This wasn't a case of a bad batch, these folks truly cannot cook. Which once again, proves my theory that Arizonian's will eat anything and say it's good. Don't waste your time or money. Ohhhh, and, " due to short staff" no one answers the phone, and there's no email address on the website, so I guess I'll just have to do this publically and tell everyone who will listen. read more

I was attending an event close by and at the council of my associates we decided on this place. The experience started on the wrong foot as it took forever just to order the food. The woman at the register was kind and helpful, nonetheless. The food is where this place falls short. The half chicken was actually very good. That alone I would give a 4/5. The mac & cheese wasn't terrible but subpar. But the ultimate disappointment was the brisket. I ordered the 2 meat meal and even paid extra for it. It looked like pulled pork and was by far worst brisket I've had. To be honest, I had never had a bad brisket until this. By no means am I telling you to not come here, just stay away from the brisket, and go for the chicken. read more

do not eat here! chicken tenders- very rubbery, did not finish my food. also no flavor at all i repeat no flavor!! fries- no flavor at all i repeat no flavor, but fresh fries the only thing that was good was lemonade and that is wear they get my one star! read more

The Ribs where ok did not tasted that fresh and was served medium cold. By the cashier section there was a colored woman working. Seemed to be not that motivated to work there. Another time I was there I felt very welcomed and the food was fresh because the manager was there. read more

Great Food, always get it to go. Ready on time ever time. Eat there at least once a minth

Total Disaster - Avoid this place... I ordered on their app which crashed several times in the middle of a large order and each time I rebooted it and I had to start the order over. I ordered a large lunch ($243) for one of my clients (doctor's office). The order was for a 11:45am pick up so I could get it hot to my clients by 12:00pm lunch. I called 20 minutes ahead of time to confirm my arrival and pick up time. I was told they were out of the cookies I ordered and they would substitute them. I agreed as long as the substitute was individually packaged and the same number of deserts (Doctor's Offices do no allow shared dishes based on COVID). Once I got there the nice guy (young guy with two earrings told me he found the cookies and all was well, but they were running late and it would be 12:15. I explained it would be too late and politely asked if there was anything he could do to speed up the process. He went in back and the OWNER barked out that I should have added my phone number to the order.... Guess what genius - the app does not ask for a phone number and I called 20 minutes prior to arriving. He also yelled out that I could go to another restaurant... THE OWNER!!! I am sorry your ordering systems sucks and you cannot keep up, but I followed up on every process your restaurant dictates to ensure a smooth transaction and also called ahead. Since I found myself with some extra time standing around waiting for the late order, I asked the nice guy behind the counter to scan my receipt in to collect my earned points as their APP suggested. Guess what - my receipt did not have the required bar code printed on it and there was nothing they could do scan my receipts for the points either. The order was finally completed 25 minutes late and made me look like a fool. When we opened it up at the doctors office the cookies were missing for 6 people and instead they added 2 cobblers - which left 4 people without dessert. I called on way back to my office and they explained they gave the cookies to another order. I explained they told me that they told my my order would contain the cookies while I was standing there. They did not care... no apologies. Here is the the thing... I have several reps in the field and they take food to doctor's offices every day a part of marketing the office. Shane's Rib Shack made my company and me look like a fool with the late delivery and not listening to me regarding the requirement for the order's individual packaging requirements... and shorting me 4 deserts. I instructed my reps in the area to NEVER USE THIS RESTAURANT AGAIN!!!! If I see it on their expense report, I will not approve the expense!! I would have given them a second chance if it were not for the Owner being an unwarranted asshole to his customers ordering large orders!!!! There was no need for that and he obviously does not value people who tried to support his business. read more

After we attended the gun show at the stadium, we dropped by here for some lunch. After browsing the menu, I ordered: Big Dad Pork Sandwich http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/shanes-rib-shack-glendale?select=uaownUdFQGAKZaJG7WVUVA#uaownUdFQGAKZaJG7WVUVA Cole Slaw http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/shanes-rib-shack-glendale?select=B_42MFpwDqaXiCEkn1253A#B_42MFpwDqaXiCEkn1253A While we were waiting for our food, I noticed that there was a some BBQ sauce bottles by the drink station. I wandered over there and grabbed a bottle of the Spicy and a bottle of the Mustard BBQ sauces. After a short wait, we got our food and I put a little of the Spicy BBQ sauce on the Sandwich and took a bite. First of all, the Spicy BBQ sauce is not spicy at all....it's not even mild or medium....there's more spice in regular black pepper. The next bite I tried the Mustard BBQ sauce...that one had some good flavor to it and added to the meal, so I used it for the remainder of the meal. The Big Dad comes with Texas Toast as the bread for the Sandwich and it helped hold it together well. Overall, it was average. The Cole Slaw I ordered for my side was ok...not as creamy as I prefer, but it was ok. I'm a fan of BBQ and this place didn't leave me wanting more, thus the average 3 Star rating.

Generic chain "BBQ" that really doesn't deserve to be called that. It's not awful, just fails to be great in any particular way. Pretty much zero smoke flavor, and they doused it some sort of grease sauce before serving it to us. BBQ is served as-is, and the eater gets to choose what, if anything, to put on it. This place is clearly aimed at people who don't really it BBQ. I kind of figured from all the annoyingly kitschy signs and decorations all over the place. read more

Just okay - we got chicken tenders, 10 wings, pulled pork, and a chicken wrap and the total was over $50 for takeout. The pulled pork was alright, nothing special, the tenders were pretty good, the wings were not crispy (even though they were supposed to be), the chicken wrap was decent, the Mac and cheese was bland (but creamy), and the fries (both regular and sweet potato) were limp. They forgot the drinks that were supposed to come with the kids meal and the wrap combo. There was a line out the door and a full house inside, so maybe it was an off night, or maybe I'm just pickier about my bbq. I live nearby and may give the place another chance, but not anytime soon. read more

I had the sampler platter today and it was good. Recommend the honey BBW sauce had a very nice tang to it.

The ribs fall off the bone! The sauce is just right. The baked beans are the best I've ever had!! Fried okra, fried chicken tenders and more. ALL GOOD! read more

I had the sampler, with ribs, chicken tenders, shredded chicken, baked beans, fries and Texas toast. It was really good. The ribs were not as tender as others I have had, but they tasted good. Portion size was good. It took about 10-15 minutes for our to go order to come out. I did recommend to a friend they got the brisket and really liked it. read more

**3.5 Stars** OK, so I was aimlessly driving around this morning chomping at the bit for food. I ended up on this side of town, and after circling to see what restaurants were here at Westgate, I decided to come here, and I'm kinda glad I did. I found out that on your birthday you get a free sampler plate, so I went with that. They have a decent selection of items on the menu, and the prices are fair. I asked what came with the sampler plate, and he told me that it was chicken strips, ribs, shredded chicken or pork and ribs. Well, guess what, I don't want the ribs because I don't eat pork! I asked if he could substitute the brisket for the ribs and he said no. MINUS ONE STAR FOR THAT BUDDY. They have brisket on the menu, but I guess its a no go for the sampler, and don't bother asking to swap it out. SHAME ON THEM! Ugh, so annoying! Overall, the food was okay. Fast casual environment, and if you want quick BBQ, stop in. Oh, and don't ask to swap out the ribs for brisket on the sampler..lol read more

I ordered ribs sauce on side ribs had a ton of sauce tables were nasty floor nasty . The sprite was flat. Worse 25.00 ever spent on barbecue. Yuck never will go back the workers are young and not very bright read more

I have added this place to my 'NEVER EAT AGAIN' bookmark list. I have been here twice and I've had the exact same expense I am done! I ordered and paid online they gave me a time to be done and I arrive and have to wait 15 minutes for my burger to be cooked. Then it was $10 for a burger with no fries and they don't pay attention to customization (first visit) they added cheese even though I specified no cheese. I didn't care for the service. The staff was not very engaging. The burger was for my husband and he said it was okay, but Johnny Rockets is better and it come with fries and it's ready when they say it's ready. I am not recommending against Shane's for others. They just won't be getting my business any longer read more

The food was good. I don't recall what I had, but I do recall it was delicious. The location, on the edge of West Gate, is convenient to be able to get to without crossing the center. I will likely return, as I have a friend that lives adjacent to West Gate. read more

Slow AF.. Dined it and waited 30 minutes for food. Lady patron had her weiner dog under the table while eating. Not impressed with the food. The corn was bland.. No salt no butter. The side salad was welted lettuce. read more

Came here because my FIL was set on coming here because of past visits here when he would come to AZ. We ordered to go so I don't have much to say about dining in. Right now because of COVID-19 protocols, there were a lot of tables unavailable, but people were dining inside as well as outside. The BBQ sample plate (my husband & FIL got) we really good! Ribs tasted great and so did the pulled pork. I ordered the spicy chicken sandwich, eh good but not great. Too heavy on the seasoning. The service was mediocre. Not rude, yet not friendly or welcoming. Just getting the job done kind of vibe. But they're working hard and I see it. I'd return and eat there if we were in the area, but I wouldn't drive out of the way for that specific location because that's what we did this last trip. read more

So I tried to give a local business some business. I ordered my meal online for three of us at 10:30 and scheduled my pick up to be at 11:15. We arrived early at 10:50 and went in at 11 o'clock and they advised our order was cooking. 1115 we went back in and they would vies it will bring your order to the curb. At 11:45 we went in and I'll order was still not done and the subject behind the desk did not even apologize for the wait. With service like this why would I ever come back and why would I ever advise someone to go to Shanes. Customer service was terrible as usual. Never again and the food was cold? read more

This is probably the worst barbecue I've ever had in my life taste like something you get out of a vending machine and microwave it no smoke flavor and then they drowned in their crappy barbecue sauce my stomach was very angry at me the rest of the day people at the counter very rude as well won't give you any explanation for anything very bad at least it wasn't very expensive but will never go back read more

Employees need to be trained not to sit ON a counter where food and beverage are kept. The cashier was seated on the counter while taking orders. I'm sure the board of health would not be happy with that. The ribs were definitely from the night before. Coleslaw was mayo.... all mayo. Glad I tried it with my friends but no plans to return ... read more
