When you eat at DIBBS you cant go wrong, I truly believe this is the best place to go to in the hole city of Philadelphia and out of state for your BBQ. I am not a person who goes out and buy food because i don't trust other people food but this place right here has quantity and quality like no other. The food is always filling and enough for a few days to eat on. So if you want the best ribs, brisket, chicken and sides to go, go check these people out you will not be disappointed at all. The staff is always professional.

I have eaten at Dibbs BBQ since it started and I haven’t been disappointed. This as been the best food I have had in a long time. Customer service is great. When you have great customer service and great food under one roof what more can you ask for. I would definitely recommend Dibbs BBQ to everyone!!!

UPDATE TO BUSINESS RESPONSE:
I rode by and the line was down the street, so I decided to give them a try. While in line I heard they were on FYI Philly, so that explained the line.
I got in line before opening (noon) and ordered three platters (2 ribs (pork and beef) & 1 pulled pork platter). I was told 20 minute wait for my order. That should have been 12:20 PM. Twenty minutes later and beyond turned into 1:33 PM when I finally received my food.
Now let’s get into the food, the food is definitely overpriced and the portions are small. The beef ribs were overcooked and dry. The Mac and cheese and greens were good. The cornbread I could have did without. It was overly sweet and burnt. Like black and burnt. Whomever sent that piece of cornbread out was dead wrong. I’ll update later on the other two platters.
The service was very very slow. The staff was unorganized and gave people the wrong/incomplete orders. Customers went home who lived outside of Philly just to return the wrong orders and to get missing items.
Customers who placed/paid for orders yesterday were still there waiting when I left. I think they are overwhelmed by the demand since their FYI Philly feature and needs to meet the demand and hire more help.
The combination of slow service, overpriced food, small portions, and overcooked ribs is enough for me not to return. The staff was nice and friendly, but that isn’t enough to make customers return. I wish them the best and hope they improve on all levels.
RESPONSE TO BUSINESS: you sure did. Please see photos and receipt. MY EMAIL ADDRESS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MY NAME. I am the customer you gave greens to on the pulled pork platter, which were suppose to be string beans. When I asked for a side of a string beans the staffer with the braids and the owner’s wife wanted to take my entire bag with three platters to remove the greens. I refused stating no you’re not digging through my food to remove greens. You’re not suppose to take food that has left your kitchen back in. It suppose to go in the trash. The owner’s wife then stated that means you’re going to get free greens. I said yes and it was your mistake. Can I get a side of string beans so I can go? She then stated oh I get what you’re saying and brought out the greens. I was going to keep that to myself but since you don’t know how to take a critique and improve on your business here you go. EAT AND WAIT AT YOUR OWN RISK. OH CUSTOMERS PLEASE CHECK MY REVIEWS. THEY ARE FAIR AND HONEST. Before you come with a lie I gave my king a piece of that dry beef rib and that’s what you see in his pulled pork platter. I ate those greens you wanted to take back. Oh I almost forgot the reason the owner’s wife gave for the long wait today was that the charcoal was wet and they didn’t know it.

Holy smoking bbq ribs!!!!!!!!! The absolute best ribs in west Philly, jumó out your socks!!! Good. The bold flavors of the bbq sauce alone stand out above the rest, seriously good ! When I grabbed my bag the two platters they were so heavy I thought they made a mistake ! A half rack platter and the chicken ! Bursting at the seams they were unreal the moist wet and thick ribs were Just the beginning , mouth watering sides !!!! The Mac and cheese should be winning awards the cole slaw was so good so well balanced I wish I had a spoon to ladle our every waking bit of sauce. The corn bread was so well made that I probably would cry if I lost any of the crumbles that fell into the sauce ! I can’t rave any More about this place in the heart of Lancaster ! You got to take a trip up to this place it’s well worth the trip not too Far from Belmont Ave. I want to try the brisket next ! The collards were prepared with care. Over all the service at the counter and the smile on her face made my weekend I just love this place ! I ate my platter in the car I couldn’t wait the smell coming out the bag was unreal !!!! Go see for yourself. trust me it's just that good!

Just came from the place and the food and service was great. I ordered the rib platter with collard greens and candy yams. The greens were seasoned rights and the yams tasted like the way my grandma made them. My wife and I plan to return. The food was ready in less than 15 minutes. It was hot and the ribs sauce was spicy to my liking.

Great welcoming & friendly customer service . Ribs were very good. Much better than the collard greens. Overall enjoyed! Would definitely return. But go early. Only open weekends until sold out. Deems to sell out early.

I got the half chicken with mac n cheese and baked beans. Baked beans were phenomenal, mac n cheese was good, chicken was solid. Expected a bit more flavor on the chicken but still was good. Most certainly coming back to try other meats and sides. Def a good BBQ spot.

This is not your ordinary BBQ..The rub along with the sauce elevated my taste to an entire new level. The robust rub with the tasty BBQ sauce is unique. The beef brisket, was amazing & tender with a nice crisp coating, the BBQ ribs are soo meaty & tasty, the greens are fresh, the sweet potatoes have a crisp sweet & tasty coating and the mac & cheese was great too.
I look forward to the drive for my 3rd visit.????????????

Hello Everyone, Let me tell you something. I have been driving past this spot for a while waiting patiently for them to open. Who doesn't like a good BBQ spot?
Well, one day I saw them advertising on Instagram and I was like that's the place I've been wanting to try.
I'm very satisfied with the quality, quantity, and taste. The customer service was very good. Thumbs up ????
Keep up the good work Dibbs BBQ staff. I will be back soon!
