Greatest food and service out of every restaurant in Tallahassee. Dylan made sure that we had the most pleasant experience whether it was serving the food directly to us or helping my family and I with the menu and what we’d enjoy. He recommended me the cookie and it was delicious. Top tier service.

First time at a Four Rivers, and we were impressed! Easily in the upper echelons of barbecue chains for us. Order at the front, and your tray is made up in front of you by the incredibly friendly and helpful staff.
Ordered two 1x2 plates, one with smoked sausage, baked cheese grits, and Krispy Kreme bread pudding, the other with burnt ends, baked beans, and Krispy Kreme bread pudding. The meat was solid, but not particularly impressive as far as really good barbecue goes. It's the sides that really shone, for the most part. Rotating varieties of decadent bread pudding (the other is banana pudding style), excellent baked beans. The one weak spot was the baked cheese grits, which were not particularly cheesy.
Don't know when we'll be near one next, but we'll certainly be back if we are!

I've been frequenting this location since it opened in 2015 and it has never let me down. I recommend 4R on the regular, its some of the best brisket in Tally imo. The food is always delicious, staff is friendly and prompt, and the environment is just an overall good vibe. Megan and George keep this store running like a well oiled machine, and go above and beyond for their patrons!
