Ritz Barbecue - Allentown

It was very good! so glad they're back open. had truthahn bar-b-que, drilling, cole Slav and coconut cream pipe. good, old-fashioned comfort food. eating really quickly. clean. really nice waitress. will be back.

Such a great local gem. Food is good, friendly service, good prices. Known for their ice cream. Just an awesome place. Try it out!!

Great hidden gem to go get ice cream! During the summer all the bigger ice cream stores have long lines, but here at Ritz you’ll get served relatively quick in comparison! I enjoy their sundaes, milkshakes and ice cream selection!

PEOPLE.... this was BBQ BEFORE it was BBQ. In ages past, people (in this case we mean the PA dutch) would extend large cuts of pork, turkies etc... by barbecuing them, which meant stewing them down in a mix of ketchup and vinegar and some mustard so they would keep. THAT is what BBQ really is, and that is what they serve here. It is not and has nothing to do with smokers and pits or brisket or pulled pork or any other modern connotation you think it is. So don 't attack them for not being BBQ, the problem is your lack of proper understanding. Everyone from this area over 50 knows when they were young and in school having cafeterias that served pork or turkey barbecue now and then, and THIS is what that was.

Always a great place for a decent family meal and a nice treat for dessert..been a family tradition for as long as I can remember.
