For barbecue without smoke, the food is outstanding! Really good service, great local craft bar options too.... And good deals for the lunch specials

Max City BBQ has all the Offerings for a traditional Old School BBQ Spot. From their St. Louis Styled Ribs to the Collard Greens and Cornbread, Max City has the Usual Suspects. I had the Weakness: St. Louis Ribs (I Subbed Baby Backs) Brisket, Pulled Pork and Chicken. They are sometimes out of Collard Greens (because they are so good). The Greens are excellent with a good Spicy Kick) I had the Baked Beans and Macaroni & Cheese! Yes the Mac & Cheese is Baked, no offense to Stove Topped presentations; and the Baked Beans are legit. Not straight out of a can! They Work 'em for ya. All very good. I haven't had many better BBQ places than Max City. I Rate them 5 Stars given what they offer. Bar Seating, Table Seating as well as Patio in the back. Location is right on a Corner with a "Shared" Wall with another business so you must look closely. The Service is always amazing (we love you Cindy) Wine, Beer on Tap (I don't partake) Sodas, Water Tea and Lemonade round out the choices. All in all I have continued to patronize this Business. Price Point and proximity to Pasadena it will continue to be a Dining option! Check out Max City! You will not be disappointed!

Best ribs in town. The cucumber side and baked beans are delicious. No cocktails but they have a small but good selection of beer and wine to enjoy with the bbq.

Super Yummy Food and a whole lot better then the other competition, for the sake of not putting the other restaurant down I will NOT mention their name but the quality of the meats and sides you get here is amazing! Their Mac and cheese is a great combination with the baked beans. We usually only come here once a year for mothers day as a special occasion and we take it to go and eat at tye comfort of our home, its worth it for sure! So give them a try! We tried the (weakness) special which gives you a little bit of all the meats they offer with 2 cornbread muffins and 2 sides at a very reasonable price, we always buy the premium side of mac and cheese to add to our meal.

Truthfully I wanted to give three stars, but I decided I liked the food more than I disliked it and for the price to feed two people with that variety of food, you can’t beat it. Pros: the pulled pork was delicious, and we enjoyed the chicken and the ribs, however they weren’t the best I’ve had. It was $39 for the “Weaknees” which included the 4 meats, two sides, and corn bread which is amazing. Cons: I had high expectations for the brisket because it’s been so long since I had it but it wasn’t particularly flavorful. The corn bread was so tough it had the texture of an overcooked bread roll. The mac and cheese was a bit boring but their spicy bbq sauce saved it. The staff was kind and the wait to eat wasn’t long.

One of the best bbq! Got the "weaknees" which was a variety platter and it was perfect for 2 people. Everything (especially the St Louis ribs, brisket, and corn bread) was delicious!! Staff was friendly and helpful. Very nice rustic setting with clean restrooms. Would eat here again. Highly recommended.

It was the first time there. My friend and I dined in out in the patio area. Such great ambiance. Food was fantastic! We ate the Weaknees dinner for two. BBQ chicken, Baby back ribs, brisket, pull pork and the most delicious corn muffin. I had potato salad. It was made with red potatoes and a Jones watermelon soda. The price was well worth all the food! The service awesome. Clover was very friendly and really on top of it. Our water glasses were always full.This is a new favorite place to eat! We'll be back soon!
