I've had the pork and the brisket, both were outstanding. Beautiful smoke ring on the brisket. It's a tad pricey, to me, 16 for a sandwich and a side, but definitely not outrageous considering all you get. You get what you pay for here because the sandwich was Delicious! Also why they get 5 stars to me, you can buy your meats by the pound! I usually get sandwiches with sides but my mates bought 1 lb Brisket each, served with Texas toast and it was about the same price as my whole meal but they have at least 2 more sandwiches with their leftovers! They're in an area where there are many Great BBQ spots near by, but this place Crushes it with the Basics! Always packed at lunch but move you thru fast. Very friendly and Courteous staff. New lay out and much bigger dinning area since i was here last here (might have even moved a couple doors down). I will be back for sure, 5 Stars!

I am far from a top fan of BBQ. So know that I am not a discriminating reviewer. That being said Righteous Q is a favorite! Love their sweet potatoes ( they are large and slow cooked to caramelised yum) topped with brisket or chicken and coleslaw for 10. More goodness than I can finish.

Amazing BBQ Experience! Righteous Que is hands down one of the best BBQ spots around! The food is consistently delicious, and you can tell they put real heart and soul into their craft. The smoked meats are tender and flavorful – the brisket is to die for! I also loved the pulled pork, which was juicy and packed with that perfect smoky taste. The sides are just as incredible, especially the mac n cheese and collard greens – true comfort food. The portions are generous, and everything is reasonably priced for the quality you’re getting. On top of the mouthwatering food, the staff is friendly and welcoming, creating a relaxed, down-home atmosphere. Whether you’re dining in or taking out, you can always count on Righteous Que to deliver. Highly recommend for any BBQ lover!

You don't think authentic brisket BBQ when you say East Cobb. BUT holy smokes, this place is incredible. Brisket sandwich with the sweet sauce AND the Alabama white sauce is perfection. Mac n Cheese nice and thick with a delicious crust- Oatmeal creme pies home made in a little baggy and fantastic Banana pudding. My wife and I drove 45 minutes in traffic to eat for dinner, so expectations were set high and Righteous Que delivered. Staff was so friendly and the restaurant was clean. 13/10 would recommend to a friend.

Righteous 'Que is my family's favorite BBQ restaurant! The food is delicious, and they have incredibly kind, good people working there. They are a local business that graciously gives back to the community. Their brisket, wings and fried okra are amazing!!

I usually snap a photo before digging in, but not this time—the brisket was that good. Juicy, tender, and sliced straight off the slab, it melted in my mouth before I even thought about my camera. The barbecue sandwich with their sweet sauce is phenomenal—simple, flavorful, and exactly what you’d want from a proper Southern BBQ joint. The house-made chips surprised me with a little kick. Perfectly crunchy with just the right spice—definitely not your average side. And while most folks don’t talk much about green beans, I do. These had a bold peppery finish and were cooked perfectly tender. Loved them. On top of all that: spotless dining area, clean bathrooms, and genuinely kind staff. Righteous ‘Que nails it across the board. Highly recommend.

This is hands down the best BBQ place around. All the food is amazing and the wings are the BEST I have ever had! Don’t even get me started on the mac and cheese, it’s so delicious !To top it off the customer service is first class. They have different specials every night of the week. I highly recommend giving them a try.

My mother wanted BBQ so we found this place. You walk in and decide how much you want of your meat choice. I went with 10ozs of brisket...needed a lot of protein. My side item was the Brunswick stew. The brisket is cut and weighed in front of you. It has a nice crust on top with an insanely flavor small amout of fat underneath that I gobbled up. Without question I will return to this gem. The 3 people at the counter were so friendly it only added to the great experience. The stew was more watery than I am used to with Brunswick stew but the flavor and ingredients made it a 10, it was just a different spin on a classic but worked!!! Next time I will get the cole slaw because it was on point as well. If you want great BBQ you need to give this place a try. Left very full but happy. On my brisket I tried the white sauce and sweet sauce. It tasted best when I mixed them.
