| - I think other reviewers are pretty accurate.
I had the de-boned baby back ribs. They were good but not great. A bit charred in some spots but tender and reasonably lean for ribs. It is very strange that they don't have bottles of sauce on the table like the chains do, but rather give you a small cup. Of all things to skimp on, why the sauce? My companion had beef brisket, which was mediocre. It tasted like a somewhat dry, thick sliced roast beef. Service was fine.
Our waitress was new and didn't know much, although another waitress inadvertantly came to our table and was much better until the first one came back and drove her away. When asked, they weren't willing to modify their combos so you could try a selection of things you really wanted. Most restaurants are happy to accomodate special requests, within reason of course.
Yes, Bubba's is overpriced. For outstanding ribs, the pricing would be about right, but these were not outstanding. Before my Groupon discount, the bill was nearly $60, and that included one beer and one drink.
The verdict? Well, there isn't much in the area, so this place will continue to do well. I might even get carryout sometime.
