I was in Glenwood Springs for one night and this place was recommended to me by a colleague. I ordered the beef brisket for lunch along with the sweet potato fries. DELICIOUS! I also had the okra and that was just as yummy. The customer service from the time I walked in the door was phenomenal! Everyone was so friendly... More

Rib City has a cheery vibe with friendly staff . Our salads were mostly iceberg lettuce nothing special. The bbq beans were kinda to juicy for my taste. The ribss were dry and very average. the toast was soggy . I. liked the sliced pork again nothing special. I was very glad to leave I do not CW music.

I have not had one good experience at this place. We tried it a number of times, hoping it would be better than the last. We've had no luck. The food is terrible (and my husband loves BBQ!) and the service is almost as bad. There are GREAT other options in town. Avoid Rib City!

What do you do with a place that you really want to like, heck, that you absolutely go out of the way to try to like, but whose management seems absolutely determined to turn you against it? Such has been my family’s experience with the Glenwood Springs location of Rib City. When they first opened a few years ago, we... More

Loved it ALL! Didn't think I could be any more amazed till I asked for my dessert to go, got to my hotel , opened it up and she decorated my pie with whip cream flowers! AND, assumed we are traveling and said, just in case you don't have access to silverware, I packed some for you! We are traveling... More

We met up with multiple couples and children ranging in age from 4 to 15. We were practically the only table in the restaurant! (???)On a Friday night??? Service was great, something on the menu for everyone. Food was very good, just what you'd expect from a family style BBQ. Good value, reasonably priced with massive portions.

We've eaten here 3 times, and we've always enjoyed our stay. The only "negative" is that it almost seems TOO clean. Ha. Almost a "sterile" feel for some reason. Nice decor, but lacks some "charm" I guess. Seems a little "faked". But, food was very delicious.

Excellent food and great service from Danielle who was attentive to our table. The atmosphere is comfortable and after a day of touring, this is a perfect place to get some good eats. Reasonably priced for the quality of food and service we received. If you like trains, it's across from the Amtrak station in Glenwood Springs - fun for... More

We ate here following an afternoon of horseback riding, and it did the trick. Good food, good service, comfortable atmosphere, and good quality for the price. I recommend it.
