on Citysearch Dec 21, 2008Ask for "JUICY RIBS" whiners! This place is awesome, atmosphere - smokey romantic and rockin Some folks complain about anything. I lived in Memphis 20 years and ALWAYS try to get down those steps to those waiters... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 28, 2008I honestly think this is some of the best bbq in Tennessee, in the southeast, Heck, in America for that matter. If you're a babrecue aficionado at all, you 'll love this place. Best dry rubs, ever, period. The cool... (more)

on Citysearch May 31, 2008This place was a great dissappointment. We moved here a year ago and I make way better ribs at home. They were dry, small and chewy. But the service was absolutely forrific! Not a pleasant dining experience at all!... (more)

on Citysearch May 09, 2008The Rendezvous is the place that made me never want wet ribs again. They set the standard for dry rub ribs for me. That was 17 years ago. I took my wife there after telling her for so long that yes Corky's is great but the... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 28, 2008Horrible! I should have known this would be a poor experience from the start, when the gruff person seating guest said, "Only 1?" upon seeing I was on my own, and seated me next to the station where workers were slamming... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 13, 2008I was working in Memphis for a few months and everyone said I had to try out Rendezvous. I normally don't believe hype, but it definitely lived up to everything that had been said. The dry rubbed ribs were unlike any ribs... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 24, 2007Rendezvous is the best barbeque that can be found in the Memphis area. My favorite thing to order is the barbeque nachos. The barbeque has the best flavor combining sweet and spicy along with the cheese is phenomenal!... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 11, 2007The Rendezvous is a placeholder in Memphis historical cuisine, and is the prime destination for people who want real Memphis-style ribs. This place has been around for ages, and so has the wait staff! The waiters... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 21, 2007I see now why Corky's is rated #1 BBQ in Memphis. The Rendezvous is the most over rated eatery my wife and I have ever set foot into. The restaurant was a filthy hole...a layer of grease and dust cover nearly every object... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 24, 2007Food is definitely the focus here. The BBQ is great and large portions. We had the house specialty pork ribs which were tasty, falling off the bone. Don't expect much on sides, small dixie cups of coleslaw (too... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 10, 2007Grew up in Memphis and used to eat here often. Liked other places better, Jim Neely's, Payne's, John Will's, Corky's, but always respected Charlie Vergos and what he built. Ate there tonight first time in 22 years.... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 20, 2007They have excellent dry rub ribs and darn good bbq nachos. As long as you don't mind the wait to get in, you won't have to wait long to get your food. The servers are friendly, but fast. Yes they will try to get each table... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 07, 2007I can't believe some of these poor ratings. I live in Arkansas but lived in Memphis 20 years. I'm currently doing a photography book on Memphis so have been returning often. I have eaten at the Rendezvous 3 or 4 times... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 18, 2007I don't want to be overly harsh, but how the he** is this place in business ????? Are visitors to Memphis or the locals that stupid ?? I hope not, and I don't think they are really... The food is gross, the service is... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 24, 2007Soooo disappointed. It's just living off its name. I go to BBQ in every town I visit, and I thought this was supposed to be a good representative of the legendary Memphis BBQ scene. It must just stay open by preying on BBQ... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 25, 2006I was disappointed with the Rendezvous. Not so much because it wasn't good but because I had been told it was great...and it wasn't. Rendezvous is that place you take family visiting Memphis for the first time. Or if... (more)
