You can't go wrong with a honey box from Jim's. They were missed when they had to close for a while but they are open again and the smell and taste are as good as ever. P

I'm a rib and bbq snob. I have tasted bbq all over the country including Texas, Memphis, Carolina, and Kansas City. I was visiting Augustana and wanted some good local fare. This didn't disappoint. Classic local rib joint restaurant, friendly front counter staff. I asked what rib speciality was best, got the back ribs, hot sauce. Wow. I opened the box of half rack ribs to find them soaked in a spicy tomato based sauce. Unique. And so good. Meaty ribs, great pull off of bone. Tasty. I got Mac and cheese and baked bean sides. Also delicious. I could only eat 1/2 the ribs for lunch and had the rest for dinner the next night. I'm a fan!!!!

I love this place. I am from Moline so have been going there for countless years. When I do get back I always bring home a gallon of rib sauce!

First and foremost the staff here is amazing. Super friendly and welcoming. Second the food is phenomenal. The ribs are obviously great but so is the turkey and sides. The macaroni and cheese is a must get. We will definitely be back when we visit family out here again.

We arrived late but everyone was very nice . We had back ribs which were so juicy and flavorful. The meat melted in your mouth. The place was family run or so it seems. Perfect pick

Are you coming here for the ribs? If you are, a friend said, "These are the best ribs I have had in 30 years.". Based on that, here I am and I must agree. I had the back Rack in the sweet sauce with the house made slaw and baked beans. The slaw was very nice. The beans had a good flavor but I like the sauce a bit thicker. The ribs...oh, the ribs. Perfection on a plate. A generous portion of 7 back ribs. Nice and meaty, not dry, falling off the bone. Amazing. All that with a drink for $25. Yes, it looks like a dive from the outside. Get over it and get inside. Oh, the hours on Yelp are wrong. They close at 8 on weeknights.
