What Our Customers Are Saying

"Great food, quick service and friendly staff. We each got the 3 meat trio with different sides. The smoke ring in the brisket was awesome, it yielded such great flavor. The ribs were my personal favorite- such great flavor with a hint of heat. I also had the pulled pork. I would definitely get this trio again. My favorite sides: mac n cheese, baked apples, green beans and greens. However the coleslaw was a nice fresh and different than any that I have had in a restaurant- definitely worth a try! My husbands favorites are the sausage, the ribs and the brisket and for the sides; butter beans, apples and greens."

"Dr. Rolf's Barbeque was delicious! I tried the dirty tots and a cup of the white chili. The tots were topped with perfectly smoked pulled pork, white cheddar queso and poblano peppers - it was to die for! The white chili had just the right amount of kick to it! I'll definitely be in again! 😋😍"
