Burnt Ends Melt is an absolute MUST! We also enjoyed our brisket and burnt ends platters. The house bbq sauce is extremely good but the hot mustard matches perfectly with the melt or any of the delicious sandwiches. Ish, the Service Manager, was extremely welcoming and thorough. He came over to our table and checked on us towards the end of our meal to see how everything was and we couldn’t have been more impressed. 10/10 experience at this 4 Rivers location. Highly recommend!
I am glad I came and ignored some of the negative comments. It was a great experience. I ordered the Messy Pig with two sides, fried okra and french fries. I must say, it was delicious. I can't saw one negative thing about the restaurant or the food. The employees were super friendly. I will be back. **The picture was taken after I had eaten half my Messy Pig.
Have been wanting to try 4 Rivers since recently moving into the area. We are big fans of the 4R Cantina in Disney Springs. We tried the new "Barbacoa" bowls off of the "inflation menu". First off, not sure why this is being called a barbacoa bowl when the meat is not included when you go to order it and you have to then choose an add on protein to the bowl. Second, not sure if the inflation menu means you pay more and get less but as you can see from the pictures the containers were half filled up and very skimpy on literally everything that was supposed to come in it. These were now $11-12 bowls now. The menu claims there is supposed to be Cilantro lime creme fresh and avocado salsa but there was literally no Cilantro Lime creme and very little of the Avocado Salsa on the lettuce. Third, there was no seasoning on anything. The rice was plain white rice, plain black beans and even the pork which said it was "Sazon" pork was just regular braised pork with little to no seasoning. No Mexican flair or any spice to anything and the lack of sauce and salsa made everything very bland. Fourth, the Pork bowl was a few chunks of meat and then a huge piece of Skin see picture so not sure why that much skin made it into the bowl. Fifth, the Mac and Cheese side is basic cheese sauce.. nothing special it's not baked and has nothing in it to make it special like bacon, corn or Jalapenos or breadcrumbs like some other BBQ places. Also the food was not hot, and that seems to be a common issue from recent results. I put an online order and was there on time and still had to wait a little to get the food and then for it to not be hot a few mins later is odd. I know this is not a Taco or Mexican place but this is on their menu and seems to be a special items as it's the first option in the menu drop down and they do have street tacos as a regular item. Being related to the 4R cantina at Disney I expected a lot more from this menu item. The idea is there just execution was lacking in a big way. What we got looks nothing like the menu picture. Trying to have something that is not chipotle that was offering a rice bowl. Would like to try other items and the regular BBQ but experiences like this don't make you want to come back in. Staff at pick up was a little strange, kind of felt like I was bothering them by picking up? Had to also ask for napkins and utensils to be added as it was take out that should be already a given...
We got food from the Winter Garden drive thru and we live less than 4 miles away. We spent over $50. My husband's half rack of ribs were cold. Our fries were soggy, the "baked cheese grits" were inedible. The pulled pork sandwich was great, but the Burnt Ends were soooo greasy I couldn't eat them. I wouldn't even feed them to my dogs. The baked beans were good but for $50 we were left hungry and We were Very disappointed. Attached are pics of our receipt and the Burnt Ends & Grease. That thing on the right, well that WAS a stale roll but it was more like a sponge, absorbing the grease. I waited a few days before posting... just to gather my thoughts. I almost didn't post... then I decided people need to be aware of the possibility of being very disappointed too.
I come here often and almost always get the same order. The baked beans and corn bread are 5/5 every time. The brisket is hit or miss 2/5 , often times I get a weird cut that most good smoke houses would not serve as a brisket portion, very blubbery sometimes unrendered fat. I have gotten some fantastic brisket at this location but it’s the exception and not the rule. Jalapeño poppers are also hit or miss, often the bacon is soggy and you can tell they’ve been sitting a while, same with the coleslaw, not always fresh. Staff is always friendly. Honest review from a long time customer.
Got the angus brisket platter with Mac n cheese, bbq beans, corn bread, and the bread pudding. The food was awesome. Loved the spicy sauce and the mustard bbq. My only complaint was the food being just luke warm, wish it was hot! The service was great and the restaurant was clean. The bread pudding was by far the best part!!!
The burnt ends sandwich with beans and slaw were very good. I do very much like their sauce also. Can't wait to go back for more.
A couple things happened while I was in the facility. First I placed an order for the 1/4 rib 1/4 chicken and they didn’t place my chicken in the bag. Then I ordered an extra cheese grits that was also not placed in the bag. I went out to my vehicle and spent a good 5 minutes making sure I had everything. I don’t usually do that because I trust that everything I order is in the bag but the cashier didn’t make any movement after I ordered an extra cheese grits. Also, please see the picture. That is definitely not what I expected to be burnt ends. It’s more pulled pork, so if it is, they really messed up my order. If those are burnt ends, they’ve been sitting there all day. I will not be back…
Update: 04/26/2022 After a review with the management team. We decided to give 4 Rivers another try. We ordered lean versus moist too fatty brisket, okra, fries, green beans, Mac and Cheese. The portions of brisket were slightly better. The smoke and seasoning is not what we are used to with 4 Rivers, but the overall taste was pretty good. The fries and okra are kept in a fancy warmer. Surprisingly, they both tasted quite crispy. Rest of the food was tasty as well. Regarding the service, that has never been questionable as it’s always been five-stars. Plus, the place is clean and the food is served quickly. All the condiments are readily available. Overall, the experience was far better than the last time and we hope that this becomes the norm. I’ll update my experiences. In the meantime, please stop by and try them out. Update: 04/08/2022 Four Rivers is just not doing it like they use too. Noticed the okra is now stored in a warmer after being cooked wherein it use to be cooked to order. Was stale and just not fun too eat. The brisket sandwich’s have less meat with a higher cost. I know because we’ve been going since the days of the Park Ave smoke shack. In all fairness I get growth, etc. But lovers of BBQ will pay a premium for good food and 4 Rivers has just fell off the wagon. It will be awhile before we decide to return as the food experience is just not what it was using the measure of years of patronizing 4 Rivers. In other words, they are only competing against past and present experiences. First, the location in Winter Garden is very easy to enter and exit. Upon entering, the place is tinged with the Smokey smells expected of a place of BBQ. Ordering for takeout or sit down is seamless. The briskets and most of the sides are spot on. The only thing I wish they would fix, is to provide fresh french fries and fresh fried okra. I know they will tell you the turnaround is fast. But, here lies the real problem. It is unsouthern like to serve okra that is sitting on the warmer. This needs to be made to order period. To ensure a crisp and crunchy taste. If, you understand southern cuisine. You are more than willing that wait for that. Same goes with the fries. The food is a little more pricey, but your taste buds will likely compensate for your wallet. The staff are friendly and the place is clean throughout. I normally visit during lunch and only about every other month. While I genuinely like the food. I want to say that it tasted better in the old Winter Park location. Just my opinion and yes, I plan on patronizing the business. The BBQ is pretty good! Update: 06/28/2019 This review is made up of multiple reviews from a year ago. I’m the type of person, in which a business has to earn a five star rating from me. I do not arbitrarily give them out. We are now up to a four star rating versus a three star rating. The reason for the four stars is because I feel as though the portions of brisket are smaller than say three or four months ago. JMO. However, the okra and fries is now served fresher than before. I appreciate management taking me up on that one. Especially, with the okra. I’m biased with the Carolina mustard bbq sauce. It’s just my thing. Now, I’ll be reviewing in another 6 months or so for quality, quantity and consistency. Enjoy the Q! Update: Four Rivers is losing control of their quality. I ordered take out brisket without fat. Shame on me for trusting that they would provide me what I ordered. Got home and pulled the bun off my brisket and discovered that it’ was 95% FAT disguised as meat! While the manager made me an entire new meal. This doesn’t raise any points with me as the carver should know better. Who eats brisket at 95% fat! I will make a few visits before I raise the stars. This is the second misstep in my last two visits. Four Rivers you have earned these two stars. Get it together! 06/29/2022 I returned to the Dillard Street location for a spot check lunch and let me just say that I have not been this impressed with this location for a while. Everything was ON POINT!
Smoked wings are crispy, smoky, and hardy. Smoked Jalapeños were simply delicious.
