Williamson Brothers Bar-B-Q

not impressed

by trippd at Citysearch

my quest for good barbecue in metro Atlanta continues...

disappointed, to say the least. Ribs had excessive fat on them, not enough meat. Sauce was watery & not very flavorful, and my pork sandwich had massive globs of fat in it -- wasn't pulled very well.

The worst BBQ I ever had

by keenanhogg at Citysearch

Anyone that knows Q will be dissappointed with the fatty low quality of Williamson's ribs. Not only is the meat quality lacking, the ribs are broiled. All and all I would have to say that this is without a doubt the worst BBQ I ever had, hands down! Even Southern California BBQ was better, and trust me they don't know Q like the south.

They didnt remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. The sides were not very good. The sauce is only O.K.

Best BBQ in the city

by viperbite4 at Citysearch

Hands down the best BBQ in the city. I read the other review about the service and I couldnt disagree more. My server was very kind and helpful as we had to wait about 45 minutes for another member of our party to arrive. They kept our drinks filled and they were prompt with our appetizers. Grade A service and A+ food.

Food was Good, but service was horrible

by starbright at Citysearch

The food had very good flavor, the only downside was that it was served luke warm. Someone besides our server delivered our food, and the order was not right. When we finally got our order correct, we never saw our server again. She never checked back to see how everything was, nor did she ever clear a plate. We finished our food and waited an additional 5-7 minutes for our server to return. She didn't, so we went to the counter to ask for our check.

• Pros: Good parking, good taste, children friendly
• Cons: bad service

Overrated!!!

by bledbetter at Citysearch

I have heard people rave about this place, so i thought Id eat here for lunch.... It was crowded so I figured that had to be a good omen.... wrong. The barbecue pulled pork was dry. The sauce is good but you shouldn't have to douse your meat in it to make it tasty. And the sides.... the sides were really bad. They tasted like the sides you buy in large tubs at your local Kroger. Needless to say this place is waaaay over rated. I don't get it at all, but I don't know why Everyone Love's Raymond is the number one show either, so who am I to say. Drive to Pig-N-Chick in Sandy Springs, if you really want barbecue its worth it.

• Pros: Close to my house
• Cons: , Lousy sides, Crappy waiters

A Slice of (Pork) BBQ Heaven

by jnrobinson at Citysearch

Wow, what can I say that hasn't been said before? If you don't like the "WB" you just don't like Southern BBQ. Great food, plenty of it, smoked right on the premises. I recommend the All You Can Eat, Outside Chopped, Rings and Slaw combination. You will leave there stuffed and satisfied with barely enought energy left to nap in your office. Service is run-of-the-mill and the ambiance is little better. Who cares? It's the food you want. If you want ambiance, go downtown.

• Pros: Authentic BBQ, Terrific Value, Fresh
• Cons: Kinda' Grimy, Average Service, Dark.

Best Q Anywhere

by nholman at Citysearch

Anyone who rates this place low, clearly is does not know what they're talking about. From the Outside chopped Pork to the beans and slaw, this place is best anywhere hands down. They even have Port Nachos that are the mutts nutz. Go way out of your way to hit this place, its worth it. Marietta, Canton, and Douglasville.

• Pros: Sauce/PorK, ALL YOU CAN EAT, EVERYDAY
