Roadside Bbq - San Rafael

Staff do not want to take orders or serve food. I called the restrant at 7:30 to make an order. The man who answered was like he couldn't hear me. I called back at 7:35. The same man answered. Again, he pretended there was a telephone connection problem. I then called a few other places to make sure my phone works. That's it. So I called the restaurant again at 7:40. Again, the man pretended there was a connection problem. This time he forgot to separate the phone line and I could hear him talking to his colleagues. I could hear him laugh that he doesn't want to accept my order. I was already in the car on my way to the restaurant, so I decided to go personally. I arrived to see the facility was illuminated with open signs and the front door was wide open. I was just saying they were closed. I guess my money is not good enough for Roadside BBQ!

Mac n Cheese and mashed potatoes sides we're awesome, my 1 year old agrees. The pulled pork sandwich was so moist the bread was soaked. Fried we're on par. Cold beer to wash it down. Outdoor seating was nice, nice little spot Northgate needed.

Decided to check out Roadside BBQ for lunch today. Had the Two Way Combo Plate with baby back ribs, brisket, two sides of french fries and a Diet coke. The food and sauces were all just ok. Flavor, tenderness, juiciness were all below average to average. Some of the baby back ribs were severely overcooked to the point where it was almost jerky like and the brisket was really salty. They do however offer FREE SOFT SERVE and a 20% discount for first responders! I won 't be back since it costs too much for the amount of satisfaction acquired by eating here. Baby Back Ribs: 6/10 (Some overcooked) Brisket: 4/10 (Too salty) Diet Coke: 9/10 Corn Bread: 8/10 Price: $21.71 (after the 20% first responder discount)

Love their ribs and garlic fries and corn bread muffin. I'm from Texas and this is the closest I can get to good BBQ when I'm here in the bay. Trust me when I say, if you love BBQ, then this place will have you craving it the next day. The prices is affordable and reasonable and the staff is awesome. Also they do have a ice cream yogurt machine inside so when you done with the BBQ you can get you a cup of ice cream for dessert. If you want some BBQ check this place out, oh and the interior decorations are awesome too.

This place is way better than you would expect for a restaurant in a mall setting. The baby back ribs and BBQ sandwiches are tender and delicious. Plus they offer free self-serve ice cream for dessert. I also want to point out how friendly the employees are. This is one of our favorite counter service restaurants for dinner.
