I wish I would have taken a picture of our lunch.
I got the 1x2 - I chose the ribs with collards and cole slaw.
My husband got the pulled pork sandwich with the collards and baked beans.
BOTH were big portions!
Everything tasted so good and so full of flavor!
Meat was tender!! The collards were out of this world & I love a fresh crunchy cole slaw!
I would highly recommend getting there and getting you some yum yum BBQ! You will not be disappointed.
I will be back here for sure!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolute game-changer! Exceptional food and even better service.
If you’re looking for top-tier barbecue in Tampa, 4 Rivers Smokehouse is an absolute must-visit. The brisket is impossibly tender, the burnt ends practically melt in your mouth, and the sides are just as comforting as homemade Southern cooking.
What truly elevated our experience, though, was the incredible hospitality. A special shoutout and massive thank you to JAILA !!! for providing truly exceptional service! She was warm, attentive, and genuinely went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of. Customer service like that is rare these days, and it made an already great meal unforgettable.

We stopped here for lunch today while in Tampa. It's very popular with the work lunch crowd. Cafeteria style service, which is not our favorite for fresh food, but the staff was awesome. The place had a lot of fruit flies inside and they had the apple traps scattered about. That was not too appetizing. We had the 2 meat (ribs and brisket) and 2 sides (mac and cheese and coleslaw) with cornbread platter. There's an upcharge for those meats, the cornbread and to add a drink, but we both had enough to eat for under $30 that included a tip, which was well deserved by the staff. The sides were good as well as the ribs, the brisket was basic in our opinion, and nothing was noteworthy, but the sauces were pretty. All and all it was a decent lunch for the price and service, but there's plenty of better BBQ spots in town. Just our opinion though everyone's tastes are different.

Ordered ahead to go from website. Put my name down. Waited 20mins outside along with many others. Hardly any food was going out. Dine in customers were getting food the entire time. Went inside to check on my order and was told it would be another 10mins and no one apologized or explained the issues. I left and called to get a refund. Ordered online from Mighty Quinns, by the time I drove there it was ready and I had food in my hand. Disappointing experience- I am a regular dine in customer or Uber eats order from 4Rivers. First time ordering take out via their website. Better off going in to get your food vs ordering take out.
