The Spare Rib

★ 3.8 / 5 (562 reviews)

The Spare Rib is a popular barbecue restaurant loved by the locals. They serve up generous portions for both lunch and dinner, seven days a week. In addition to their delicious food, they also have a full bar where customers can enjoy a tasty cocktail alongside their meal. The marinades and sauces are all made from scratch, and their must-try items include the full rack of St. Louis cut ribs, baby back ribs, smoked pulled pork, and juicy prime rib with sides like corn and coleslaw. Save room for dessert, as their funnel cake and hot apple pie with ice cream are both mouthwatering options!.

**The Spare Rib: A Mixed BBQ Experience** The Spare Rib, known for its cozy atmosphere and comforting dishes, has garnered praise and mixed reviews since reopening. While the restaurant remains a family favorite, some diners note a decline in quality and service post-COVID. Patrons appreciate the delicious grilled sea bass and riblets, yet find the menu lacking key BBQ staples like sausage and brisket. Service inconsistencies and unclear pricing on menu items have also raised concerns. Overall, The Spare Rib offers a charming dining experience but may need to refine its offerings to reclaim its former glory and elevate its reputation in the competitive BBQ landscape.

My favorite restaurant for 40 years. Back in the day my kids ate free. Today I still love the menu especially the grilled sea bass accompanied by a side of riblets. Goes great with a Guinness on tap. AAAAA

The first thing that came to my mind was having ribs in New York City. Never underestimate or doubt any restaurant in any location until you actually go and experience it for yourself. This place...

I visited the restaurant as soon as it opened, and I found everything to be delicious. The riblets are absolutely amazing! I'm planning to order catering from them for a party in July.

Go back to original oldies and not bad newer versions. Stick to classics. Music should not have the same electricity generated drum beat
