REVIEWS OF Full Moon Bar-B-Que IN Alabama

Liz Burns

Food was great and lots of it ! We are on the road but if we come this way again we will stop

Jordan Wise

Such an awesome place to meet for lunch. The sweet tea was some of the best I have ever had. One should also save room for dessert even if you do not normally have a sweet tooth, you will not be sorry.

The Sicks

First time coming here and I was overwhelmed with the large menu. The staff helped me make some choices and I was very happy with my decision. The pork sandwich was amazing. Will definitely be coming back when I have the chance.

Kim Warren

Links were dry. Ribs were a little tough. Chicken tasted like a rotisserie chicken you buy out of grocery stores. Potato salad was really good and barbecue sauce is really good. Baked beans were okay. Key lime pie was pretty decent. Restaurant was really nice on the inside and the bathrooms were really clean.

Tammy Adkins

Excellent food. Always consistant.

Chris Richardson

This was the first time I've ever been to one of their locations but it will not be my last!! The food was great and I love their sauce's. !! The big loaded baked potato was awesome!!

Reginald Hubbard

Service and food was excellent

Teresa Busby

Very friendly service. Food delicious. Maybe that's why I went to lunch and dinner the same day. Lol

Amanda Bullard Carden

Everything I have ever ordered here was good. Their salads and baked potatoes are my favorite. They are pretty busy most times of the day that I have been here, but the wait is rarely more than a few minutes. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you are in the mood for barbecue!

John Marchell

Great food and great service. Will definitely visit again when in area

Shane Green

Best bbq in around.

Devri Cheatam

Full moon is always good! Just wish they would lower the price a little bit. Or run daily special

William Slaughter

Fast service, good food, helpful staff.

Lana Damon

Good delicious unhealthy food!

Chris Mosley

Alabama RULES when it comes to B-B-Q! So glad Full Moon moved into McCalla. They have fabulous food and the desserts? Do not miss out on the desserts!

Greg Massey

barbecue is good the cookies were burnt

Vicki Johnson

I had a chicken baker and it was horrible, I eat here alot and they are usually good. I guess I came on a bad night...

DEEDEEFOSHO

Great! Food was awesome

Dan Hornbuckle

These were the absolute BEST ribs I have ever had. From looks, texture, to the AUSOME taist. The only problem I have was I ordered 1/2 doz Chocolate dip cookies. It was for my wife her birthday dinner was a request of your ribs with 2 cookies. I ordered the cookies but did not get them. She likes the ribs BUT SHE LOVES THE COOKIES. For my wife the cookies are the main thing, any other food is secondary. Needless to say I got no brownie points. Especially since it was her Birthday Day dinner. I even upped my order from 2 cookies to 1/2 doz as a extra suprise so when she finished the 2 from me she would have 2 from each of her 2 puppies. I live almost in Adamsville and made a special trip to Surprise her and that didn't work out.

K L Thomas

Love this place, but they were out of pimento cheese and wings and the wait time was long this visit.

Polly Mcghee

Food great...wait in drive thru is a little long.

ALVIN KEAREY

Had a baby back rib plate that was not very good.

Shelley Manton

Always friendly staff and wonderful food. Love this place!

Jeff Marks

Dried out brisket on open face, Texas toast was wet, not with BBQ sauce so don't know what was done to it. Back of house did something to it I'm sure..did not eat.

david harrison

Got a few sandwiches and had to pull up and wait, 6 cars behind me got their food and left, poor service on this trip

Anthony Hinton

Because it's centrally located.

Robert Carter

Terrific barbecue. Try the half moon cookies!

Chris Potter

Great food, and we appreciate not being pushed out the door at closing time.

Jim Hanson

Long line at the drive thru, but it went very fast. The smoked chicken is amazing. Also the Chicken Baker (potato) could feed a person for 3 days!

Tricia Moses

Always good cozy good experience

Lawrence Hatter

I went to this location on Bond Avenue Saturday night for dinner after planning to do so for most of the day. I waited in line for about 20 to 25 minutes and when I got home the ribs were gummy and not done. I refused to drive back to return the food that night and waited until today. The order was promptly remade without any problem. My first complaint is that I did not receive an apology. I also purchased a tea and some cookies with my plate. Again, I purchased these items. That is my second complaint.

Teresa Herring

Good place to eat and be served if and when needed.

David Greene

AWESOME OPEN FACE PORK SANDWICH PLATE. GREAT SERVICE. TOP NOTCH!!!

Terry Hinton

Bake Beans were like soup. Filled with Barbecue sauce.

D Taylor Peitsch

Great chocolate pie, coconut too. Bbq is very good,tender, none of that really chewy pieces some bbq joints try and add onto your sandwich or plate. Chocolate chip cookies, half dipped in chocolate, and I'm told an employee comes in each day, and that's all she does, they have pecans baked inside also. Potato salad ain't like my moms, but it'll do. Good bbq sauce, friendly staff and management. Only thing, a bit pricey. We can't afford it often.a little advice, if you want a slice of pie, almost $4 bucks, but consider this..the entire pie, $20, and I'm guessing there is at least 8 big girl portions going home with you. U can do the math on that one. But if you are having company over on Sunday, and you need a dessert, pick one up, you won't regret it!

B Allison

I bought a baby back rib plate today and the squash casserole was really good, as well as the marinated cole slaw. I was very disappointed in the ribs in that they were like rubber. You couldn’t hardly pull them apart as If they were not cooked long enough. My experience there with ribs is either awesome ( meat falling off the bone) or just the opposite where you can’t even separate them. I should have brought them home and wrapped them in foil and cooked them for 3 more hours. I’m not one to take food back, but maybe I should in the future as expensive as the plates are.

olivia wonderful

I visit about once every 2 to 3 months. The food is good. The bbq sauce is the downhome southern taste.

Kevin Thompson

I have eaten here a few times. Usually passing through and stop for lunch, and have been pleased until this last visit on a Thursday night. I always order brisket, because that is my favorite. Not so good this time. Not cooked properly, maybe they ran out and had to grab some before it was done, or the cook lost his mind, idunno. I see other reviews with the same complaint. Secondly, if you charge premium price and serve french fries that are cold and soggy, you have totally forgetten the keys to success. This hurts right in the bottom line. NO ONE likes to return food, we just do not come back. There are not too many second chances in food service. See the soggy fries on the tray by all the napkins?

Kim Smallwood

My mom had surgery this week and it was Father's day. My experience all the way around was great! The food was amazing. Both of my parents as well as my children loved it. The meat was cut and cooked to perfection. The customer service was off the chain as well. You guys did a great job and we are still enjoying it right now. I will share my experience and send people your way. Have a great day team

Bobby Hosea

Took forever to get the food. I understand it takes time especially with the type of food that's made but it just took so much longer than necessary. Currently 25 mins and counting.

Zach Rutledge

One of my favorite barbecue places. The ribs aren't so great but the brisket and turkey are excellent. I love the mac and cheese, collard greens and potato salad, too.

Momof3 Scholars

Perfect place to stop when you are traveling on 459 get gas and get BBQ! At Full Moon BBQ, It’s all about the meat! And it is very good here. Huge portions. We had baby back ribs, brisket, and shredded pork. Our daughter’s huge stuffed potato was big enough to feed a family. She said the brisket I ordered was the best she’d ever tasted! The ribs were dry with a crisp charred crust just like my husband likes them. We also enjoyed the Excellent Fresh brewed tea. The toasted buns held up to the bbq without falling apart. The sides were hit and miss. The fried green tomatoes and cole slaw were hits but the French fries and squash casserole were misses for us. French fries were a little under cooked and the squash casserole which I think is similar to my mama’s recipe with ritz crackers, was soggy, mushy and flavorless. Many people had orders of onion rings which looked good and Mac and cheese. There are so many sides to try, I’m sure there are some other tasty ones. The desserts looked yummy but we will have to try them another time. The dining room and drive through were very busy on this Sunday around noon but still very clean. Service was fast and friendly and plenty workers in the dining area delivering food and cleaning tables. They were gracious about giving us extra fried green tomatoes since we didn’t like the squash casserole and delivered them fresh and hot to our table.

Terri Anaya

great food and service

Gwendolyn Greyer

Really Good

Craig Winn

This is my second favorite location in Birmingham. The one on Hwy31 is my favorite. This location does have a couple outdoor tables which is nice. I also like that it is an outparcel in a large Developement. The food was just as good as the other locations but I have only eaten here once. The pork baker is the way to go. Looks like way too much food with the nuclear sized potato but it is just right.

Susan Smith

Always a good choice!

Karen Weaver

Bbq is sooo good

Alien :

I don’t really eat barbecue, but I’ve heard it’s good.

Tee Burton

Great food! Great service!

Tony Neal

GREAT FOOD HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Ricky Glass

Awesome service and food

Jen Watson

This place has fluctuated between 1 star and 5. The inconsistency is frustrating because when they are good, they are VERY good. At times, the meat is perfect but at other times, I have tasted a strong chemical or gas taste to the meat. The staff has always been friendly and very patient when o have been there. The place is usually pretty clean as well. I will continue to float in occasionally and hope it's a 5 star day for them.

Daniel Young

It was good. Umm no complaints just good. Not great. Just good.

Shaun King

Derrick bishop is a very good host he made sure we where good and taken care of.

Hope

I’ve always had wonderful service coming here but today was different. BEYOND AMAZING. I locked my keys in my car while I had my super energetic 2 year old with me. One of the gentlemen that worked there spent atleast 15 minutes trying to get my car unlocked before having to call service. Very thankful for his kind gesture and for the entire team helping to look over the entire restaurant. Thank you for helping me today!!

Ken Hamaker

Jumbo Bbq pork sandwich for me, stuffed potato and chocolate cream pie for my friend, along with very good ice tea, yeah we will regular this place.

Erin Peitsch

Food was okay, wings were a little dry, but other than that great friendly service. A little chilly inside though, but it probably feels nice for the cooks.

Pandalovebutton

Called in the order. Arrived the after the proper wait time. Got inside and was told didn't have anything in a bad order. Call the store to make sure I had the right place, the phone rang, it was the right place. She said oh we have it back here they should put in the computer. Your food will be out at a moment. We waited 40 minutes. They hadn't even started on the food. When we finally got the food I had to go back up to ask for Chow Chow that was supposed to already to be in there. The woman behind the counter looked at me when I asked If she could get me some, and flat out ignored me. She didn't even tell me one second I'll get someone else to help you. Food was good though so three stars.

Genny Nalley

Always good. Staff was pleasant as usual and service was fast.

Dillon Sullivan

Got to the drive through at 6:48. Left the drive through at 7:17. They were out of the vegetable of the day and needed 20 minutes for macaroni and cheese. I ordered something other than macaroni and cheese and still waited a half an hour.

mtuscaloosa

Food is usually good and the people are nice but they tend to forget to put everything in the bag on drive thru orders and are slow as molasses.

J. C. Richardson

One of the most unique places I've ever been to. Great ribs and sauce!!

Mark Heaps

The place has a cool vibe, lots of local historic memorabilia in the walls with plenty of TVs to watch a game on. Service was fast and the staff was helpful. Unfortunately both my friend and I had some bad results shortly after eating here, and we did not have the same thing. If give them another shot, maybe it was a bad batch of something.

lauren chambers

Ordered drive thru. Very prompt in taking order and getting the order to me. Very tasty as usual!

Edward Cowan

Pulled pork value meal well worth it feed about 6 with bake beans and collard greens well seasoned and soft.

Shirley Stringfellow

We live over 10 miles away so if our order is wrong it’s not feasible to make a 20 mile round trip. Our mistake for not checking it but this is the third time in our last 3 trips. We ordered 2 one pound orders of pork because we were buying dinner for our disabled daughter as well as ourselves. That was explained in detail. We only got 1 pound. No they didn’t put all of it in one container. I weighed it. But we DID get charged for 2 pounds. The only reason for 3 stars is that we really like the food but the attention to details like this needs a lot of work. Next time I’ll drive farther for my BBQ.

Amy Rooks

Always yummy but it is not 'fast food' takes a bit to get your order.

Angela Harris

Great staff. The food could be better, but it's okay.

Dennis Carrier

Good bar b que place

Brandy Bradford

Full Moon has the best bbque ever!!!

smurfs alot

Bad service and bad over priced food

Mike Aaron

Good food good service.

Ronald Sutton

I love the sweet tea and chilli

Antionette Dunn

I just went to this location and ordered chicken wings at 7:54pm. I got the wings at 8:33pm!!! Horrible!! No apologies or anything! I am not sure why this place is still open, but this is not business. In fact, what kind of business is this that they would continuously treat their customers like this? No standards at all! And to think, this is what my coworkers and I were getting to celebrate the 4th of July tomorrow? Ha! No thanks... cancelled! One star is being generous. Do not go here!

Gary Gibbs

Great food and service

suzanne Mason

Beautiful landscaping, friendly associates. Ordered the riblet plate. The riblets were tender, and smoked to perfection. All empty tables were clean, as well as the restrooms. Tea was sweetened to true Southern DE-LISH-OUS-NESS! .

KBNJB _

Y'all thought y'all had the best pork in town. NO BUT YES BUT YALL ACTUALLY HAVE THE BEST EMPLOYEE IN NOW WHICH IS TYREE! This guy did his job in getting my order replace Ed which was a whole slab of ribs that I received tough and didn't even ask a question this guy is the ish on ma!

Kumayama Dojo

The menu here is a little bit pricey but the food is very good.

Armelle Marie

Good BBQ, prompt and extremely pleasant staff, clean establishment. I would recommend Full Moon for an effortless and good lunch/dinner to enjoy alone or for a laid back meal with friends.

Delisa Jemison

Enjoyed the food. Nice atmosphere

Vicky Bolling

My rib tips were under cooked and very fatty. I spoke with the manager about it. The food is normally good but I was disappointed this time.

Micah Chestnut

Large portions and good food

James Jackson

Great food and staff

Dugan Watts

Good family BBQ. A little slow at time but worth the wait

Kevin Muir

If you eat inside the food is considerably better, as they have extra sauce and all food BBQ needs sauce. If you get anything to go, you get way less BBQ sauce on your plate or sandwich. Still good food. Tried their smoked wings this weekend. Not bad. Not great, would eat them again if nothing else on menu that day.

Tammy Wood

Bristol TN needs one of these. Awesome BBQ worth the 6 hour drive.

Judy Cannon

My meal was delicious. The service was excellent.

david richards

Food is great but the drinks always seem a bit flat.... Oh and the cookies are A #1

Joseph Habshey

Lots of food and so good

Angela

Gave three stars because the food is not consistant sometimes it's good sometimes it's not. ordered a bbq sandwich and the meat was very dried out lots of hard stringy pieces and was cold! Also the actual bun was cold guess from the meat being so cold it was awful and had to send it back...It is not ok to serve food in that manner and why would you?

Kathy Hogan

Delicious as always. Thank You

Jan Grayson

Love the Fried Green Tomatoes and Sweet Tea Yesterday...

Angie Cacioppo

Food good. I did not receive barbeque sauce on the side. So had no sauce for my ribs. I was told my receipt was in bag and it was not.

Anthony Mitchell

Reginald Henton

Great food awesome service super easy to get there

Ella's World

Food was hot and ready!

Dennis Lathem

I have given this particular location multiple chances to cook ribs that can actually be eaten. I have given up. My wife brought me a rack of ribs back to the house and I stopped after the second small rib. It was (once again) like trying to eat granite. If this location cannot do better than this they need to either stop serving ribs OR have a serious intervention from management. I have had decent ribs from other locations, but NOT THIS ONE. They will get NO MORE of my money.

L Crew

Had to pull forward BUT the cashier was super nice and made sure everything was in the bag. One item was forgotten he made sure that he brought it back out to us on a very busy FRIDAY NIGHT! Awesome staff awesome food!!

Bill Tiemann

Good Bar-B-Que, actually probably my favorite Bar-B-Que in the Birmingham area. You should give it a try. I highly recommend it.

Great service. Good food

Jacobie Bell

I always get the veggie plate and every time I go it is always hot and delicious

Kevin Fladung

The food was good. The person that appeared to be the manager didn't seem very friendly at all. Had to wait in line for at least five minutes to get a drink refill.

Beth Phillips

I could eat a big baker loaded with pork 2 or 3 times a week!!! I LOVVVE Full Moon

DONALD WILLIAMS

Ribs were awful,had the texture of being boiled rather than grilled.Baked beans appeared to be,and tasted like,they were right from the can.

Jackie Harrison

Service and food was amazing. !!

Mike Camp

Always a good place to eat and bring family.

Delshunda Ishman

My chicken look like they were being stingy with my serving and it was dry tasting!! I haven't been pleased with this place in a long time!

sean thomas

Second time being there. The bacon burger was awesome and a great size. A friend got the the rib sandwich. This "sandwich" had three huge ribs on top of two slices of bread. The ribs looked great. This sandwich was under $7. You get your money's worth at this place!!

Jonathan Parker

Only three for slow drive thru it was 30 mins waiting but sandwich was good

Carolyn Morris

The one in Mccalla is not so good only their ribs everything else is great in my experience of eating there.

Homestead In The Canebrake

Bessemer store is great. Friendly service and fast. We barely sat down and our food was being delivered to our table. Always great BBQ and the chow chow is a wonderful touch.

April Walker

The food is typically good but the drive thru is SO SLOW!! Go inside if you can!

4KingGORILLA
