    ows ribs sandwich and fries
    Patron D.

    I read all the views before patronizing this restaurant. First impression was it was very clean for a BBQ joint. That's always a plus . Secondly, the food was good, it has its own sauce more vinegar based not sweet . However it is good. I feel many closed minded people have reviewed this place and that's sad , but you can't please everyone. I'm a truck driver, so I invite my fellow drivers to come try & support. Maybe they'll create a Trucker-Special (Hint Hint) .

    I love Tops beans!!!

    Great BBQ. Tops is my best place to eat BBQ in the Memphis area. I have been eating at here since the day they opened.

    OMG !!! When I tell you this Memphis BBQ Sample Platter is amazing!!! There are NOT enough words to…read moredescribe what I'm tasting right now! The service was great, and the ambiance is cool. It's a standard fast food but it gives the vibe of a family owned dine in restaurant. I do not have a single complaint. The platter consisted of a a half slab of ribs-dry rub, pulled pork bbq, and brisket! The sides consisted of baked beans and potato salad and babyyyy, they did not disappoint!!! Freaking phenomenal!!!! This was an amazing choice for lunch!

    Made it to Tennessee yesterday and we were super ready for some dinner. Fam decided on some BBQ and…read morebeing in Memphis we knew it had to be good. Place was decorated well and had a great feel with some oldies playing the background. Place could have been a little cleaner but not much to complain about. The gentleman behind the counter was very helpful and helping us decide what we wanted. My husband and myself got 'The Police', a burger with brisket, a 1/4 lb patty, cheese, bbq sauce, pickle and mayo (we opted out on the onion) and we ordered the meal and chose fries. Meal comes out super fresh and piping hot. Fries were crispy, crunchy, and hot. The brisket was cooked very well and basically melted in your mouth, as for the beef patty.. it was flavored well and made the burger even better. And BBQ sauce was on point. Overall I'd eat here again next time I take a trip out here. Well done.

    Ok, so I was leaving Memphis and my flight was showing 90 minute delay... i didn't want to travel…read moretoo far (since I was already near the airport)... I began scouring Yelp. I came across a bunch of different places with varying reviews. I finally settled on Tom's Barbeque. The tldr is I'm so glad to have enjoyed my meal here. It's in what seemed to be a local working class neighborhood. I'll be honest, as I was driving there I second guessed where I was going. I pulled up to the parking lot and sat there a couple minutes further contemplating if it was a good idea. I don't know the area, maybe I was just overthinking it and there was no reason to be apprehensive(?) I eventually went in and it's a cool little building. I was warmly greeted and had a nice brief chat with the folks behind the counter. I didn't see exactly what I was looking for on the menu...so I finally just asked him for what I wanted to see if it was an option. He said no problem and got me hooked up. I have to say, it was the best pulled pork I've ever had. The combination of flavor and texture was out of this world. I seek out barbecue places all across the country, and I can definitely say this was the best pulled pork I've had. I got a side of mac & cheese, which by appearance I didn't think I would love. It looked a little little bit like nacho cheese sauce... but much like this place, don't judge a book by its cover and take a bite. The mac & cheese was awesome. When I was done eating, I had the chance to chat with them for a few more minutes. Awesome folks, very welcoming and a pleasure to meet them. Next time I'm in town, I will certainly go back. The quality of food here was far better than any of the touristy, bougie barbecue places I've been in Memphis. As a side note incase anyone is bored and still reading this... just because your flight shows delayed by 90 mins doesn't mean it will stay that way. As I was pulling up to the airport, I got a notification it was only going to be a 15 minute delay (not 90 like the prior notification said). My first reaction was UPSET, like darn, I'm gonna miss this flight. My next thought was "oh well, I already know that Tom's is open tomorrow :) " ended up making the flight, but if I hadn't, I would've certainly come back for another awesome meal the next day!

    Never had Memphis bbq so we were super excited to try this place that's been on triple D…read more Also, my rating might be a little biased due to spending lots of time in TX Owner was extremely nice, ambiance felt homey Staff was attentive Pretty slow when we got there, not many patrons as it was mid afternoon but the two customers that were there looked happy eating their meals Sandwich was severely dry, but a GREAT portion size, the thing was huge. They def didn't skimp on the protein so I give them that. Next time I'll just put a lot more of their spicy bbq sauce on it Disappointed in the sandwich, & didn't get the onions/pickles I asked for but the chopped chicken, & sausage were pretty good Coleslaw was surprisingly pretty good as well But their spicy bbq sauce was GREAT!!! will definitely be back to try their ribs this time

    Yo! I used to looovvvveee A&R! Even when I used to date the barbecue King, I never let him know…read moreA&RI was my fav... even though they stopped selling beef, ribs, and the motivation for going there was gone I said let's give it another shot. They kind of fam... I ordered online they said 20 minutes and 20 minutes. I was there waited another 15 minutes then another 10 getting my food in sections other people around me experiencing the same thing look like they wait too long for barbecue only for the orders to be mixed up wrong and cold. My chicken would've been all right if they didn't overcook it, I ordered turkey got beef, but you know I dealt with that the second time I had to call on them last time requesting my money back this time just shaking my head. Management needs to stay in the house and get that shit together just mine $26.13 worth of opinions!

    Good Evening. I was trying to decide tonite what to eat? Have had to change up my diet a little for…read morehealth, but what the heck. Lol. So with the help of ordering directly from you n having it delivered, I decided to have me the turkey leg plate w/2 tamales to eat another day. I must say the turkey was the perfect choice. Nice n tender, meat fall off its bone. Onion rings were still in da crunch state n I absolutely love your slaw. Just the way I make too. I'm pretty sure the tamales will be just fine too. If you never had them I recommend. Oh, they're homemade. Thx again.
