9/2/22...I did a takeout order and picked up Mike's ribs. I have to say, they were delicious! They don't even need any sauce. They are meaty, tender and have so much flavor. Thanks Mike and staff, love your hard work and delicious food! 1/30/22...I just did a take out order and as usual, the food is so very good. Someone told me to try the brisket cheese steak and I'm sure glad we did. The grilled onions and cooper cheese wiz give the tender brisket so much flavor and it's perfect on the Carangi roll they use. Of course being super hungry, I had to add their chicken wings, their beef brisket sandwich and their collard greens and cornbread! Wow! That's a lot of food, but the meal wouldn't be complete without dessert, banana pudding with a caramel sauce. Thank you, Mike and staff, for a most delicious meal. Wow! There is so much to say about Mike's BBQ. Let me say, I am so glad they opened right down the street. Mike and staff always say hi and make you feel welcomed. The place is clean, and you can either eat in or take out. Our tried and true favorites are the pulled pork sandwiches, with or without Cole slaw, the beef brisket and the dry rub chicken wings. There are also sides, like warm potato salad, very unique and other sides we haven't tried yet. His sauces are also unique, like the white sauce is really good with the chicken wings. You will become a fan, his food is very good! Updated review September 2020...Mike's beef brisket is awesome! His corn bread is delicious and he uses eco-friendly containers. My son recently went back to college and I ordered take out from Mike's and my son took it back to school and he really enjoyed it. Thanks Mike for your delicious food!!! 4/10/24… Welcome to the neighborhood, Daniel and staff. The food from Mike’s bbq is delicious! The ribs are cooked to perfection and I am looking forward to trying some of the new items on your menu.

The brisket cheesesteak was good, don't get me wrong, but this place has been called the "best barbecue in the city". As good as it is, I have had better. If the brisket cheesesteak had cheese on the inside (not just on top) and some barbecue sauce brushed on or something it'd probably be way better, it was just really dry. Still a great experience, wouldn't go back for the brisket cheesesteak though.

Mike's BBQ is Philadelphia BBQ. Out of all the BBQ spots in Philly, Mikes BBQ tops the charts in quality, flavor, atmosphere, and service. It's not only the BBQ thats outstanding here, Mikes's brisket cheese steak is next level. Packed to the brim with a pound of tender brisket, beautifully proportioned with sautéed onions, and smothered over the top with Cooper Sharp cheese, Mike's cheese steak is unmatched. 11/10 for this hole in the wall.

My friend recommended this BBQ joint. Honestly, the food is nothing special. Had the brisket and the collards. Both were bland and lacked any flavour. While waiting for my order to get ready, I saw a short white cook who kept scratching himself all over his body like he had some kind of skin disease. What's worse is that this guy didn't bother to wash his hands in between his scratching fits. The off-putting image of the cook killed my appetite! I only had a couple of bites and threw away the rest.
