The ribs are tasty, the blueberry cornbread is awesome but the desserts too have declined in quality, especially the chocolate cake which used to be "death by chocolate" and now is more akin to cheap birthday cake. ”
- “
like the retro sodas like Moxie orange cream and the fresh squeezed lemonade. ”
- “
Their dessert (Double death by Chocolate) is HUGE! ”
- “
Well smoked tips, hot fresh cut fries and a real good strawberry shortcake for dessert. ”

The place has an incredible collection of old beer neons and signs, a good BBQ joint feeling. ”

Full bar, clean restrooms & patio. ”

The hostess was rude, the waitress must have been new because she couldnt answer simple menu questions, and our drinks came in dirty glasses. ”

We'd invited out of town family to come sample some great food. ”
- “
Ribtips for appetizers are my favorite, and you can't beat the garbage can lid combo for a meal (or 3-4 meals.) ”
- “
Good smoked meat, hickory and mesquite, Texas style from one who BBQs ”
- “
The blueberry cornbread was one of a kind, the baked beans were quite good and the sauces were excellent. ”
- “
Looks great, fine meats, fun experience ”
- “
Good food, service needs improvement ”
- “
I'd highly recommend the tender baby back ribs, the spicy links and the beerbattered onion rings. ”
- “
Our best picks were the garbage can platter, the beef ribs which were excellent and full of well smoked meat , the onion rings and the fresh squeezed lemonade. ”
- “
liked the baby back ribs with the Memphis Red Vinegar BBQ sauce. ”
- “
Although the Beef ribs have always been good, the chicken is always dry; the babyback and pork ribs can range from grand to bland. ”
- “
The quality of the meat is consistently great and just falls off the bone. ”
- “
Though the incredibly huge crowds on weekends tend to make the service a bit slower the food greatly makes up for it. ”
- “
The sides are ok at best, we had the cole slaw which was standard but made well, the mashed taters which were full of garlic and parmesan and very tasty and finally the much tauted blueberry cornbread which was nothing special. ”
- “
Great food, iffy service ”
- “
The BBQ is decent, especially the burgers. ”
- “
miss the fresh baked bread that they used to serve but the garlic bread replacement is quite good. ”
- “
The meat is dry and the taste is bland. ”
- “
the food was great, and good/fun service. ”
- “
The place is overpriced and the food has never been the same since one of the founders Tex Morgan left. ”
- “
All the meat was very well smoked and even came with the blue ring which is the sign for authentic BBQ. ”
- “
The sausage link was dry but I have never had a moist juicy sausage link in any restaurant ever so I was not suprised, it was tasty though. ”
- “
The blueberry cornbread is heavenly, and the meat is so flavorful, even without the sauces (you can order them "dry" and then get the four different sauces on the side for dipping). ”
- “
The side dishes like coleslaw are tasteless, and the corn bread/muffins leave little to be desired. ”
- “
Well smoked tips, hot fresh cut fries and a real good strawberry shortcake for dessert. ”
- “
So when we go to dinner we are looing for Quailty food, great service and value. ”
- “
The side dishes were excellent especially the pecan cole slaw. ”
- “
Robin's is very good and the only thing lacking is a brisket and sliced pork. ”
- “
Tri tip was a bit dry, and the pork ribs and especially spareribs were just incredible! ”
- “
Overall, Robin's food is pretty regularly good, but it's not cheap and for the prices you pay better service should be expected. ”
- “
My husband had the ribs, he said the meat was ok but the sauce was bad. ”
- “
The sauces are excellent as are the side dishes. ”
- “
The sauce is usually pretty great and their chicken is awesome. ”
- “
You can have several choices of sauce, I forgot about that and we were givin the standard house sauce which was pretty damn good. ”
- “
Their onion rings and fries are good, specially if you like In-n-out style fries. ”
- “
like the retro sodas like Moxie orange cream and the fresh squeezed lemonade. ”
- “
Tasty deep pink smoke rings on everything and the beef has a peppery rub that I taste hours later at home, really good stuff. ”
- “
Similar to the Cheesecake Factory in that it's kind of pricey but you get huge plates of food. ”
- “
cannot remember having a salad which was so bad. ”
- “
The meat is just so damn good. ”
- “
Don't let the other reviews fool you, the food is mediocre at best. ”

- “
Sometimes the food is cold and the sauce tastes tinny. ”
- “
Robin's Woodfire BBQ & Grill Has a great menu ranging from juicy big mouth burgers to great BBQ ribs with a variety of great special sauces. ”
- “
Being a BBQ addict I rate restaurants not only for a one visit great meal, but after several visits I look for consistency. ”
- “
The ribs are tasty, the blueberry cornbread is awesome but the desserts too have declined in quality, especially the chocolate cake which used to be "death by chocolate" and now is more akin to cheap birthday cake. ”
- “
We ordered our meal dry & had all four sauces brought on the side. ”
- “
The baby backs were fall off the bone tender and the blueberry cornbread was unique and delicious. ”
- “
Still great food ”
- “
The hot link was good, chicken & tri tip was dry, and beef back ribs didn't exactly fall off the bone. ”
- “
Perhaps a rib joint may not be the best place to get a salad? ”
- “
Baked beans and other sides were just average, but the blueberry muffin was good. ”
- “
They smoke tobaccy outside, so if you want fresh air, stay-in or request no smoking around your area. ”
- “
We liked the Mad Dog & the Original best though the Carolina Mustard sauce was quite good. ”
- “
The food was pretty good, the tri tip was overdone, but still flavorful. ”
- “
The chicken was probably the best I've ever had. ”
- “
The new rubs are great and sauce really is only needed if you like it that way. ”
- “
Best picks were the baby back ribs, the huge beef ribs, the blue-cheese pecan cole slaw & the blue berry corn bread. ”
- “
This place has very good spicy sauce and requires you to use your hands, since forks and knives just won't help you too much. ”
- “
Great ribs (and all other food I tried), great management, great service! ”

Great waiter, great barbeque & some great old blues in the background. ”

The staff is very friendly and easy going, just remember that this is not a chain place and the staff may not be as polished but they also aren't corporate chain drones either. ”

So when we go to dinner we are looing for Quailty food, great service and value. ”

Everything we had was great including the service. ”

We love Phillip's on Crenshaw and Woodys on Slauson but for all around atmosphere, service, music and damn good BBQ we head over the hill to Robin's. ”

The service was a bit slow but the place was packed. ”
- “
For starters the wait to get into this place was ridiculous, and it wasnt because there was a line out the door, we asked for patio seating and it took them 15 minutes to set a table and seat us, and the place wasnt even busy. ”
