We always used to eat here, but the quality of the food has deteriorated. Very limited menu and so so food.

I don't go there often because it's kinda pricey. It's a classic Burbank location. I like it. Funky.. Peanut shells on the ground. Messy, yummy BBQ.

We've been going to Ribs USA going on 8 years or so; I'm still not sure why sometimes. They have now gotten rid of the peanuts altogether; last visit we were told we had to ask for them. It's not like I have to have big salty peanuts, it's just that it was a nice touch. Now it seems cheap... More

To the lady who complained about peanut allergies and peanut shells on the floor, since when did restaurants have to become sterile environments to accomodate everyone? Ribs USA is a BBQ joint. That's it. The service when I went was great--the red headed waitress kept her cool as she worked all alone for the entire time we were there. The... More

This is basically overpriced poor quality BBQ with peanuts. We no longer go there. I suggest that you go somewhere else.

You gotta be in the mood for this place, but once every six months, we are. Grab a booth, a refillable soda, a basket of peanuts and be prepared to have a lot of food. I like baby back ribs more than beef ribs, but they do both here just fine. Pick your sides, they have all the traditional ones.... More
