beer and bbq doesn't get any better than here
Awesome beer, best BBQ in Boston!
Thanks for all the junk e-mail too!!!!!
The portions are huge and the food is great! You can't go wrong.
Went to dinner with a bunch of friends for my birthday. Staff was friendly and food was delicious. Everyone in my group enjoyed their food and we had a great time.
Been back several times since. Food is always amazing!
Great Food!
I have been enjoying Redbones for 20 years. They are the best! Awesome atmosphere.
Amazing BBQ.
They have the best barbecue, and a really cool decor.
great community involvement, great beer selection, great late night menu...and awesome corn fritters. 'nuff said.
Messy and filling just like BBQ is supposed to be. Carlos the cook is the man.
Real slow-smoked barbecue, and none of that vinegary NC style sauce produced on Jen-Aire that yankees might confuse with barbecue. Just enough of the fat rendered out, good cole slaw, Great beers and where else can you get barleywine?!!! (Great with pulled pork!) A great spot, but sometimes too loud for my 6 year old. Pecan pie is a must. BTW I am from Tennessee and was an occasional regional truck driver down south, I might know from barbecue.
Best Texas ribs I've ever tried. Best restaurant barbecue I've ever had. And I'm from the South, so I should know! (Their sides are great, too.)
Redbones is all about the atmosphere, which includes the delicious aroma of roasting meat, spicy marinades and BBQ sauces, beer, and "Southern edginess" that greet you at the door! Cozy, comforting, and hip at the same time.
Simply the best, no question!
Redbones is the best for four reasons: (1) Ribs are cooked and served without the BBQ sauce applied. Ribs shouldn't be cooked with sauce. (2) Ribs are slow-cooked, just the way they should be. (3) Ribs are succulent. (4) The waitstaff is terrific - attentive without being cutesy.
Still a family favorite - great food, always nice service
Redbones has been doing BBQ right for 20 years. They brought BBQ to Boston long before it was popular - and it's still just as good today as it was then.
Hushpuppies. They're still not as good as mom's, but not every BBQ place around Boston has them, which is a crime!
Somerville's Finest
Redbones is the best!
The meat falls off the bone and the sauce is delicious.
Redbones has spectacular, lean, smoky, Texas beef ribs. They can't be beaten north of Georgia.
Redbones is a funky place, very out of the ordinary. Its food and beer selection is far above the median, and its wait staff are always very friendly and courteous, making for a very comfortable and laid back atmosphere. It is small enough to be intimate and not that large to feel intimidated. Redbones is a state of mind too.
Great food, great beer, casual atmosphere...
Best Memphis ribs around. Service is top notch!
I have been to the restaurant and at functions that were catered by Redbones and the food was excellent, service-at the function and in the restaurant-was fantastic. And above all the prices for the quality and quantity are unbeatable.
