I think the environment is cool and because it's a favorite of Memphis you could go for the experience however I personally was not impressed with the food. It was good but not great. I've had better bbq, the dry rub ribs are just that...very dry (too dry) and not as flavorful as I think they should be. I'm not sure why people are so ...

The service was good, but the food was bad. Dry rub is fine, but the meat (ribs and brisket) were dry and tastless.
Do yourself a favor and skip this place.

My family had a blast. We had godd fortune to meet Pat Donohue who sent over some amazing appetizers for us to try and also sent us home with a bag of goodies! Ribs are highly seasoned with excellent char and the sauces are awesome. Great Memphis hospitality.

My family and I are new to the Memphis area (8 months) and we are enjoying the ability to go experience new restaurants and try all that Memphis has to offer. We were really encourange to try Rendezvous. We were told they had the best BarBQ in Memphis. However, my wife and I were not impressed in the slightest. The first thing that put us off ...

This place is not so much a favorite of the locals... at least none of my friends! There are many better locales to sample real Memphis Q.

Fantastic...not sure what some of these fools are talking about. Service was great...Thanks Robert Jr., food was really great. Wonderful experience. Six people at our table and not one complaint...everyone loved it. I've been wanting to go for years and it didn't disappoint.

Don't waste your time or money. Try Neely's or Interstate BBQ (if it has opened back up). The Rendezvous service is the worst and the meat quality is sub-par at best. Consistency of the meat seems to be a problem as well. After having spent many, many nights there in the past, I haven't been back in a year or so after having bad experiences there time and time again.
