Buddy's B-q - Knoxville

I got the ribs...very good, no BBQ sauce. The slaw was great, corn on cob, great, hush puppies great. The mgr TRAVIS, fixed my plate because of a snafu before. I dealt with an employee named Jake, initially. RUDE! He should be in back, not dealing with the public. When I found out he was GM, I was shocked Jaded...been there too long. Travis is a *PEOPLE* man and needs to be in upper management. Skills! Very professional.

I asked if the fries were fresh (meaning hot). They were barely warm. Won't get them again. Hushpuppies were not too good either.

You guys smoked the meat to a tee but we missing the flavor will be next time I’m in town to give another try

This is my first time visiting this barbecue restaurant. Went inside so I didn’t hold up the drive-through. Ordered a very simple turkey platter which took over 15 minutes for them to get out. Turkey was lukewarm at best and the plate was doused in chili covering the hush puppies and turkey. Food was rather bland. Lots of people working but not seeming to get a lot done. Food was bland at best. Hoping that they were just having a bad day and my next visit might be better.

All you can eat ribs!!!! (Until they run out during the dinner rush). Super tasty! I had 3 sets of 5 ribs and 2 sides for less than $15! ? Not sure if this is only on Saturdays.Food/Drink quality for price: amazing! Get there before dinner rush and you can eat ribs to your heart's content. If you leave hungry, that's on you they said.Atmosphere: very friendly! A regular who was watching the game helped us navigate how to ask for more ribs. There's a side window near the bathrooms that you use to ask. No need to bring your plate.Noise level: not bad and tv wasn't too loud either.Lighting: like an old diner, but with a TV to watch March madness!Staff: super friendly! You gonna get the all you can eat ribs? Yeah you are.. Haha they were working hard and poking fun with the customers at the front.Cleanliness: pretty clean!Seating: mostly booths with several tables in middle, booth cushions aren't as comfy as they look, but fineOutlets: There's one at the back at the base of a pillar that worksCar parking: tonsBike parking: none, use metal fence next door
