Earl's Rib Palace

"As always, 2 stars is good, not great for me. The service was non existent. They served everyone who came in after me. I had to order at the counter. The food was fine, nothing special for BBQ."

"Decent food, terrible customer service there before so I wanted to look over the menu for a minute or two. The lady at the register seemed irritated and impatient with us. There was no one in line behind us. The food was decent in some aspects. Meat was kind of dry. Okra cooked just how i liked it crispy. The mayo potato salad had good flavor. The whole stock of green onion on the plate made no sense to me. Why have it on the plate. Fairly high prices but got good amount of food. Decent homey atmosphere. The location on the riverwalk is a much better dining experience."

"No frills BBQ and rib joint. I ordered The Binge dinner to go. Food came out very quickly and service was great. It consisted of pulled pork (4/5), ribs (5/5), bologna (2/5) and sausage (2/5). Plus two sides. Pretty decent value but was slightly underwhelmed by the meat options. Potato salad was good, but a little more than glorified mashed potato’s. Mac n cheese was very solid. If you’re in the OKC area they have multiple options and not a bad spot for a pretty solid meal."

"Okay. I usually do not give 3 stars in reviews.(After a reply from the owner I changed my review to four stars) It is not that the food was bad, it's the fact that when I asked if they had any burnt ends I was told they throw them away in the morning. WHAT! As a barbecue aficionado, when I was told by an employee that they throw away the brisket burnt ends I was automatically disappointed. As a Texan I was a little offended. Not to mention all the Texas license plates among others that decorate the walls were turned upside down. That's okay. I enjoy a little state to state rivalry. But to throw away brisket burnt ends is heresy. However. the pork ribs were very good as was the smoked turkey. I also enjoyed the pulled pork and fried okra. The restaurant itself was pleasant and provided a good environment to eat barbecue. Tje staff was very helpful, attentive and patient. Other than the burnt end issue I had a good time."
