No barbeque anywhere can compare. If you are visiting this area in Tennessee please do yourself a favor and dine here. Best barbeque I have ever tasted.

i love this bbq. this place is owned by some of my family. though i did not find this out till a couple years ago. i love the bbq. but my favorite things are the blue cheese the baked beans and the country ham sandwich. some may think that its wierd to get country ham at a bbq place but its really good. i also love their sweet tea. i highly recommend this place if your a bbq fanatic

I've been going to this restaurant since before I was born and go once every week sometimes twice. The ladies serving are wonderful and I have been a first name basis with all the waitresses the cashiers and even guests eating at this heavenly establishment. The pork is smoked to the perfect consistency and the blue cheese on crackers with a drop of barbecue sauce is out of this world! And no if anyone was wondering I am not a family member of anyone at Ridgewood I am only a devoted life customer.

Have lived in the Ridgewood area for 50 years. Stopped to get a takeout order on evening of 12/20. Got home and my son's sandwich had charred meat on it and there was charred meat in my bbq beans. My son couldn't even eat all of his sandwich Very disappointing since I have always had good food there. Hope this does not become a habit!

The food is great from the pork bbq to the blue cheese dressing with crackers... The best bbq you will ever eat....

I loved there BBQ. Friendly staff. The food has been great year after year.

Large servings and a very friendly wait staff. They bring the beans out like they're an appetizer, which is different but good. They also have a blue cheese dip that I've never seen before and eventhough I don't like blue cheese, it's delish!

Best BBQ in the area.

Wonderful BBQ, had a bit of a smokey taste, which if you like that is wonderful. The service was very good we had a big group of people and they didnt skip a beat. There Crackers and Blue cheese is AMAZING.

Ridgewood's BBQ is far beyond all the others in our area!! Fresh food, good service, friendly atmosphere & staff.......what more could you ask for?

Great Food, great people, best BBQ in town.

The best BBQ in the area well worth the wait if there is one.

We love this BBQ over all other BBQ places that we've been to, and we've been to a lot of them. We go to places like Greensville, Kingsport, Bristol, Johnson City & the like but none equal Ridgewood BBQ, period.

My wife & I have always enjoyed this BBQ restaurant. Even though they don't run ads in the papers or TV, we have always found it to be the tops in fine dinning for BBQ. We had to figure out the best times to go because it's usually too crowded to go if we don't. I bet if they did advertise, they'd not be able to seat everyone noon nor night.

ive eaten bbq from texas,memphis and kansas city.this is by far the best bbq as of yet.i dont think it can be topped!

IT WAS THE BEST BBQ THAT I HAVE EVER EATEN LONG LINE WELL WORTH THE WAIT

We've eaten barbecue everywhere from the Carolinas to Memphis...this is by far the best I've had...Go early, there's always a line.

The best ever, and I've eaten barbecue in almost every state in the union! After making do with that North Carolina pretend BBQ for the past couple of years this is ambrosia. Hard to find, very limited parking, but well worth the effort. When you see the big beautiful ladies delivering heaven on a plate you'll know you made the right decision. And no, I'm not related to or friends with anyone who works there...
