Reviews for Parker's Barbecue Restaurant in Greenville, NC
We had our Tripp Family reunion today. Food was phenomenal. Tea was good as always. Great service. Waiters worked... their butts off to provide a great service. Keep up the good work and don?t worry about the Karens. Read more
Parker's BBQ, Memorial Dr., Greenville, NC is over the top -- food quality, service, and pricing. My family usually eats... "Family Style" because it is yet as cheap as single-plate orders any other restaurant in town. Along with the usual BBQ, slaw,boiled potatoes, and Brunswick Stew, Family Style also includes (upon request) BBQ chicken or baked chicken, green beans, friedokra, creamy mac-n-cheese, chicken gizzards/livers...and of course, their signature cornbread sticks or hush puppies. It is notuncommon to see the owner, Billy Parker, greeting and seating at the door, visiting tables and being sure his guests arepleased, or even moving chairs/tables or sweeping the floor. I mentioned to him today how much his personability meant to hiscustomers and that I was so impressed that he'd "sweep the floor," being the owner. His response was, "That's what mygranddaddy did!" He certainly understands good business and customer satisfaction. His team in the back and out front are allon-queue -- fast service, hot foot, and oh -- your very own pitcher of tea to keep your glass topped without having to run thewaiters to death! Cordiality, customer care, conscientious pricing, and good country cooking! Can't beat it! Thanks, Billy! Read more
From out of town and wanted a good bbq place. Found it. Staff was super friendly. Food came out quickly. Everything was... delicious. Pulled pork was juicy and flavorful. All the sides were delicious. Definitely will be back while I'm here and mayeven order some online. Read more
Nice quiet affordable good southern BBQ place. Sit down and take out is available. Staff was helpful and upgraded my tea order... to large when they initially forgot to bring it which is appreciated. Would definitely come again here. Read more
If in Greenville this is a must for some proper bbq. Pulled pork is top notch, fried chicken is soooo crispy and the Brunswick... stew is so yummy. Top that with 5 star service and it's an amazing combination.. Read more
We had chicken liver dinner which was great. The fried livers were soft inside but crisp on the outside. It wasn't hard and... greasy. It was cooked just right. The flounder tasted fresh, flaky, meaty, and fried just right. It was one of the best we'vehad at a barbecue place. What a delight to see that they have shrimp burger! Fried shrimps stuffed in a bun. The boiled potatoeswere actually stewed potatoes which was all right. The Brunswick stew was interesting because the corn was the most dominantflavor. Didn't care much for the coleslaw. The mustard, vinegar, and horseradish flavors were overpowering. The corn stick wasmeh. We dipped it into butter and it didn't work. Dipped it in the stew, it still didn't work. It was just this bland friedthing that didn't wanna be friends with anything but perhaps it's designed to go with the barbecue. The hushpuppies howevertasted more like corn and it was friendly with the butter. The Mac and cheese was good. Sweet tea was refreshing. Staff wasattentive and answered our questions satisfactorily. We got our food at a timely fashion. Since it was our first time cominghere, they gave us complimentary desserts of our choice, banana pudding and sweet potato pie. I think we'll visit them againwhenever we are in Greenville and try the other sides. Read more
Really good food but the barbecue and chicken portions are getting smaller! I've been coming to this Parkers for many years and... even though the food is good I just wish it had more space in the back where you go to pick up your food. Read more
Stopped by and only spent 66 for 6 takeout orders. Everyone was super helpful. Delicious and so affordable. My son especially... enjoyed the mac n cheese & I couldn't leave without banana pudding ???? Read more
