This place is truly one of a kind and top tier when it comes to BBQ. Their ribs are the best I have ever had. Everything they offer is cooked to perfection. Additionally, all the staff members we interacted with were super kind and knowledgeable. Whether you are local or coming from out of town, this place is a must try.
The best bbq for dinner tonight. Excellent brisket. The Mac and cheese and corn bread just unbelievably delicious. Can’t forget this strawberry-lime cider from plant city. Not big on ciders but this so good I had to one. Great dinner tonight seaside. Highly recommend.
Omg!!! Didn't know this place was here! Everything was so good. I had a 12 rack of ribs with collard greens. Probably the best collards I've had out at a restaurant. Ribs flavorful, tender, and meaty. Smoked perfectly. My wife had a bricket slider, mac and cheese and collards. Mac and cheese was amazing. Had that home cooked appeal. And real cheese. Baked with a perfect melted crust. Just amazing! Will definitely be coming back here for sure! Great job guys!!
We’re snowbirds from Chicago so we are no strangers to good BarBQue. We discovered Lottie Bells back when Brandell was serving his BarBQue from a food truck and we were blown away! Imagine our excitement last year when we arrived to find he moved his fabulous BarBQue from the truck to a new restaurant right down the street. So tonight- our first stop after arriving from the north was Lottie Bells!!! We ordered our favorites from last year - my husband had the Frito chili pie and pulled pork sandwich and I had the Carnitas cilantro soft tacos and corn bread with side of melted butter. The food is always fabulous and this year was no exception. The Moist Smokey barbque pork was perfection topped with homemade sauce. And corn bread was light, airy and amazing with a side of melted butter for dipping . That was as good as having dessert. The service is also great! Courtney was so amazing - she even remembered after a year what my favorite entree was and how I always ask for extra limes!! We brought home our leftovers to enjoy tomorrow because Lottie’s won’t be open again until Wednesday - and we’ll be back for sure. Try it- you won’t be disappointed.
Hands down the BEST BBQ!! A great variety on the menu and a clean fun atmosphere! Our server was polite and had a smile! I got the smoked chicken & my husband got the brisket sandwich. Soo much flavor, soo tender and delicious! Fries & potato salad for our sides! Best potato salad I've ever had! If you've read this far and haven't ordered yet, what are you waiting for?!
Best damn Texas BBQ in Florida! Mouth watering, meaty, baby back ribs that are fall-off-the-bone tender. The pulled pork was so juicy and full of flavor we didn't need to sauce it. We are KETO, so for sides we choose the savory green beans and creamy cole slaw. So good we wish they were open every day!
