Reviews for Al's Finger Licking Good Bar-B-Que in Tampa, FL

Great food and nice people taking care of customers. Get the bbq beans amazing. The collard greens are spicy, but worth the heat... mmm. Bbq sauce has great flavor and it's nice local place to spend some time. Read more

Walked in on a rainy Saturday evening lighter 4lbs than when I walked out. The ribs were enormous, which is good, but you wonder... if the quality catches up to the quantity....I'm here to say that it does. The sides were great, I had the spicy collard greensand okra with tomatoes. Everything I had went way past my expectations. Staff were great and even asked how the food was afterme and a buddy finished our meals. Awesome food made with a lot of skill and care, wish I could charter a jet just to eat hereon the weekends.

The bbq chicken is good, rice can be improved. Over all not bad if you are in Ybor & like to support a local business

Good BBQ off the main strip in Ybor. Staff is super friendly. Need to go back to to try the ribs and brisket, but a great... addition to the neighborhood. Read more

Everybody has that cousin who can cook. I mean COOK! Yeah, Al must have been THAT cousin who took his skills and said he was... going to make some money from it too! Great BBQ spot, moist and properly smoked meats (chicken, turkey, beef, etc), delicioussides, and sweet team and lemonade that taste like THAT cousin did their thing! Great, friendly staff who are down to earth andfun. Word on the street, they also own a Soul Food restaurant not too far from this location. Good times, thanks “cousin”! Read more

Really solid local barbeque. First, it passed that time-tested marker: parking lot full of pick-up trucks. First rate pulled... pork, good sauce, delish old fashioned potato salad. Collards apparently very popular but throat-searingly hot ("very spicy"always sounds so friendly when you really mean "call fire rescue!"). Their "OMG chocolate cake" is made with Guinness...lookedamazing! Read more

Good Que vibe at this converted bungalow to smoked bbq joint. This joint is staffed by a great group of folks that love their... job and BBQ service to the community. Gave the ribs, chicken, and sausage with potato salad and baked baked a try on this visit. The potato salad is straight up your mustard based 'tator salad with the beans being your standard sugar sweet baked beans. Thesmoked sausage is tender with an excellent flavor profile, except it's on the salty side. Would be a 5 star link with lesssodium. The chicken has a smokey flavor profile which is what you would expect, but it was a tad on the dry side. To overcomethe slight dryness a dab of the hot bbq sauce hit the spot. That was just enought to out the moisture upon the chicken and italso kicked the flavor profile up to be a solid 4 star though and leg. On that sauce note. The original is nice and the hot iswhere it's at. A very good hot sauce. 5 stars on that sauce! And for the ribs. Ribs were the same as the chicken. A bit onthe dry side, but a dab of that hot bbq sauce did the ribs well. Another solid 4 star nice a dab of sauce was added. And a nicetough is the white bread. Thank you for the white bread. You can't have good bbq without a side of white bread. If in the areaworth a stop. Try the BBQ. And stay for awhile and chat with the great folks that both work and patronize this staple of YborCity.

Ordered the pulled pork dinner with Mac n cheese and baked beans. Comes with a bun so we made a sandwich out of it. Overall, we... thought the food was good. Both sides had a slightly different flavor than we’re used to at a BBQ place, but we enjoyed them.Portion was a good size for the price. Exterior wasn’t overly welcoming, but staff was friendly, wore masks and the seatingwas clean. Read more
