Mike's BBQ - Barbecue restaurant in Philadelphia - 1703 S 11th St, USA

I was told this place has the best food- although the food wasn’t bad by no means it was not nearly as close to the best. I got the pulled pork sandwich, Korean bbq wings, and the brisket sandwich. The wings tasted really good I would say they are a solid 8/10 and they were probably the thing on their menu. But the pulled pork sandwich lacked flavor it tasted kind of bland but it was juicy. The brisket sandwich was probably the worst thing I got it was very extremely dry and didn’t have much of a taste- I would say the pulled pork was def better because atleast the sauce on it made it a little better. But the restaurant looked very clean and the staff was friendly. I might come back only for the wings but I will not repeat the pulled pork or brisket sandwich.

We got there an hour after they opened and they were sold out of almost everything. I was not surprised or upset. Still got an order of Korean wings and a Brisket Cheesesteak. Top Tier BBQ, just need to order online next time

Wow. I haven't had much bbq, but this Best of Philly BBQ lives up to the hype. We got the brisket sandwich, the Japanese McRib special, banana pudding, mac and cheese, and cornbread. The brisket is so tender and smokey, crusted with a thick layer of black pepper and spices. Salty with a little kick. I used the mild bbq sauce which is sweet and tangy. It perfectly compliments the salty/peppery/ smoky beef and the acidic slaw . Spicy bbq sauce also came with it. It comes on a super fresh Conshy roll that is strong enough to hold every thing together. Far too often I've gotten sandwiches on round rolls that are not fresh. It makes a big difference. And then there's the banana pudding. It tasted unlike any other banana pudding I've had. This is the real deal. The pudding is custardy and creamy. On top is salted caramel, which is executed to perfection, along with sliced bananas and softened wafers at the bottom. A top tier banana pudding. Mac and cheese and cornbread are solid sides. Overall, this is a top tier restaurant in Philly.

Hands down some of the best food I've ever had. HIGHLY recommend to BBQ lovers ! The brisket is tender and full of flavor, and The mac and cheese is AMAZING. I love the fact they use cooper sharp as their cheese 🧀 of choice. It adds that extra bit of flavor that puts these menu items over the top. The wings are cooked perfectly, with great sauce flavors. Oh and they make their own potato chips ! If you like 1 of a kind sauces, you gotta try some of the gritty sauce. Chefs kiss 🤌

Went here on a food tour of the city. Probably the best place we tried all day. The brisket cheesesteak was amazing and the Korean BBQ wings has great flavor. The sides were good but the best part was the banana pudding for dessert. Insanely good. Definitely worth a stop.

Came here to try the much heralded brisket cheesesteak. Fantastic sandwich. I thought it'd taste like a cheesesteak with better meat, but it didn't have that vibe. Tasted like a brisket sandwich with cheese. Not a bad thing, surely. 8/10 sandwich. Could have dispersed the cheese a bit better versus putting the entirety on top.

Just came back from the Mike's BBQ. Everything is perfect. Everyone is just so nice. We ordered Brisket, rib and banana pudding. All is perfect. 5 star recommend. Definitely will refer to my friend.

We ordered the Korean wings, smoked brisket cheesesteak, and slaw. The cheesesteak was great! Next time I want to try the brisket on its own. The Korean wings tasted asian, but more like hoisin sauce which isn't Korean. Slaw was very tangy and worked well in between bites of the rest of the food.
