Overall
  • no better place than this.
  • Still a good place when you have a craving for "Q".
  • Memphis Blues is a self-serve casual dinning restaurant with a jazz and blues flair.
  • Excellent place for meat lovers.
  • Overall, this place, good for once-in-bimonthly kinda thing.
Food
  • good BBQ
  • Tasty barbeque platters filled with every southern dish you can think of!
  • but could easily be more generous on the simple sides.
  • explosive crusted up bbq sauce bottles make for fun in a room where, yes, there is a boatload of meat.
  • reliable bbq especially beef, chicken and pork.
  • Perhaps the best pork barbeque sandwhich outside of the Carolinas.
  • But the BBQ itself was the biggest disappointment -
  • that said the food is a super deal!
  • Great food, good value for your dollar
  • Great meat!...Nice beers too.
  • If you feel like good, affordable, stick to your ribs, traditional Southern fare-
  • large portions.
  • good barbeque ribs
  • if you love meat this is your temple
  • You'd better like meat
  • Great bbq.
  • The portions are huge!
  • BBQ is good but not as good as the real southern BBQ in the States....Ribs and sausage combo was good and filled the tummy....Beans were tasty, just wish there was a little more of it.
  • Their food used to be a lot better, now it's just fat, grisly, and greasy these days.
  • They also have pressure beer which goes well with the spice sauce that they used.
  • Trying to duplicate some of those great US bbq establishments, but not there yet.
  • The BBQ Brisket sandwich is, dollar for dollar, the best meal in Vancouver....Daily specials, on the other hand, can be excellent....This is far and away the best bbq in Vancouver.
  • The food has generous portions.
  • They offer the best cream sodas to wash down your steak and fries.
  • If you like meat at all
  • Great food, excellent service, would definetly recommed.
  • From pull pork, perfect brisket, smoked chicken to beans, you'll be transported to a good ol'bbq from the south.
  • The food here is amazing.
  • Limited but good choice of beers.
  • If you don't mind getting your fingers dirty, this is the best barbecue you'll find in Vancouver....Served on paper, huge portions, and pretty reasonable price.
  • it's good BBQ for Vancouver standards but it's no match to American BBQ.
  • The best BBQ in-town.
  • The pulled pork is perfect.
  • Avoid the overpriced specials.
  • Everyone loved the food....The pulled pork was fabulous.
  • Good for meat lovers.
  • Large portion sizes of stick it to your ribs authentic Southern BBQ, it's a meat lovers mecca.
  • The food was dry and lacking flavor.
  • Pulled pork, brisket and sausage still acceptable and good considering the sparse availability of BBQ in Vancouver.
  • portions are splendid and the food is the best
  • The sides are uniformly wonderful -
  • But if you like BBQ, you'll like it here.
  • eating JUST meat for a meal and grilled too, kinda makes me feel paranoid about eating dangerous foods.
  • Food was boring and bland.
  • If you've ever eaten true barbeque before, it's all about the food, not the ambience.
  • The food was adequate -
Service
  • Service typical self serve Bbq style.
  • Service is minimal, which is somewhat expected in a room full of patrons licking their fingers.
  • The service is very good.
  • Great food, excellent service, would definetly recommed.
  • they don't really serve you (sort of self serve) but the staff are friendly
  • Service is minimal but the food comes quickly.
  • Service is casual, friendly and fast.
  • the owners, however, have the WORST attitude.
Ambience
  • If you like the style, go for it.
  • The North Vancouver location was a real disappointment.
  • lively friendly atmosphere.
  • The music and the decor is simple in harmony with the Memphis Blues theme.
  • The decor is acceptable.
  • A fun atmosphere with great loud music.
  • The decor is minimal...the music is always great.
Value
  • that said the food is a super deal!
  • Great food, good value for your dollar
  • Great value.
  • Served on paper, huge portions, and pretty reasonable price.
  • Combos are good value.
