If you love BBQ, amazing sides, and a warm chocolate chip cookie delivered fresh to your table right when you want it...Come grab a table out on the patio and enjoy the environment while you eat. And while you're at it, read the story about how they got started and it will melt your heart.

If you’re at 4 Rivers, ya already know. I remember watching from I4, 10 years ago, how people lined up around the corner each Friday to get some 4R BBQ. Now it’s the same, just the line is there everyday, at all the restaurants.
Best BBQ in the western hemisphere. Better than St. L. MO, better than KC KA, better than anywhere TX, better than NC/SC with their weird vinegar sauce. Just plain the best (although I haven’t been in S. America yet…)
