Bodean's Bbq

Reviews

• Not what I hoped for

  Fatty meat, thin ribs, abysmal door staff. They need to spend a few extra pounds and hire someone over 18 who knows how to seat tables of four. Avoid this much over-hyped facsimile and head to Cattle Grid next to Balham station. It's like night and day.

• Bodean's BBQ

  We went here for a work outing. We were told we could not book and turned up at eight. There were about 10 of us and we had to wait an hour outside for a table to become free. This probably is not so much of a problem if you are a smaller group but it was a bit annoying. I'm a veggie and there was only one option on the menu but it was lovely. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food and the portions were enormous - I've never seen such huge pieces of meat. If you like meat this is probably the place for you!

• It's good

  Ended up here Saturday afternoon as Eco - the pizza place across the road - was having a power cut. Seriously enjoyed the ribs which was a surprise - was thinking they might be a bit horrible based on the burger/chain/american prejudice that normally steers me away from such places. The beer was utterly tasteless, but the beef ribs were meaty, juicy and very flavoursome. I'd go again.

• not that great

  I thought the bbq Ribs here are suppose to be nice?I was really disappointed when i try it out few months back...It's expensive and the food is just average.IF u want good Ribs, I highly recommend Tony Roma's in Kingston.They do the Best Ribs ever and unlimited ribs on Monday for only £14...I don't think anyone will be disappointed with the Ribs in Tony ROmas

• Tasty rib joint

  Bodeans does ribs, ribs and more ribs. That stick to your teeth. That stick to your ribs. That smell awesome. That taste good. That are great washed down with beer. Run by a Chigagoan, Bodeans is a basic diner serving meat, meat and more meat, with some fries, and then more meat. The seating is diner style, the service is basic (you queue, you order, you collect), but it's a fun place to eat. It's not a bar, it's a trough with sports on TV. So arrive, eat ribs, and go.

• Burnt Ends

  This branch tends to be really busy. Took some friends from Newcastle here a couple of weeks back. There was a massive queue of people, so we put our name on the very long list (leaving a contact number) and retreated to a nearby pub expecting to never hear from them again.Within half an hour, our phone vibrated and we all legged it over for the biggest BBQ I've ever eaten in my life.Definitely try the burnt ends, and they do great burgers. Staff are pleasant and bubbly enough, although tend to be rushed off their feet. I particularly like the televisions showing baseball and other Americany sports. When I went it was kids baseball, which was really cute and a bit of a talking point for our table!Warning. The next day you are liable to smell quite meaty.
