After watching the owner on Top Chef, being a home chef myself I needed to visit the restaurant. Surprised I hadn’t been here before when traveling in Boston. Tried the world famous biscuit, butter and strawberry jam, the biscuit was 3-4” tall and jaw dropping good. Next time I’ll be sure to try the strawberry short cake desert. For meat, it was hard to decide but tried something different, pig belly. So delicious and melts in your mouth, sauce paired so well with the meat and the flavor lasts. Service and bar tender was sweet and great at recommending but all in all everything is sure to be delicious. Looking forward to trying more on the menu next time. Delicious!

Amazing food and fabulous service by Kenny! Everything was so flavorful and well made. Lemonade was giant! And so refreshing All the staff were super nice, specially our server, Kenny that took great care of us. We ordered a sandwich and a tray for two people but what were we thinking 😂 the short rib was definitely more than enough for both of us and so so so good!!! Will definitely go back for that and to try other items.

Ok food but overpriced. Beers are up to $14 and they charge $3 extra for any sauces other than the sauces on the table and don’t tell you until you get the bill. Went here to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday and not a special experience. Not terrible for grabbing a bite to eat before the game if you crave bbq, but very expensive if going somewhere to order beer with your food or grab a beer before the game, and extremely disappointing for a birthday celebration. Didn’t even offer to sell us desert! Several restaurants including Reunion BBQ give you a free desert on your birthday, offer a much larger variety of sauces at no extra cost, and have beers where the most expensive in a 16oz pour of Maine Lunch IPA which is expensive everywhere and often a 12oz pour. The only reason I would go here instead of Reunion is location. Otherwise Reunion BBQ would be my choice 100%. Also the meat was more tender and flavorful at Reunion BBQ.

Overpriced ($6 for a soda, for example) and pretty bland. BBQ in Boston is a low bar, obviously, but there are less-mediocre places.

We visited Sweet Cheeks Q this past Saturday after the ballgame. This was our first time traveling to Boston and first game at Fenway. The walk from Fenway to the restaurant was only 5-6 minutes and we ended being early for our reservation. The GM, Kevin, met us at the door and we were immediately taken with how friendly and welcoming he was. We are Canadian and Blue Jay fans, wearing our home team apparel of course. Kevin started off by telling us how hard it is to be mean to Blue Jay fans because we're "all so darn nice"! He told us our table wasn't quite ready, but he got us seated shortly thereafter. While waiting we enjoyed a drink at the bar. Our meal was fantastic! I'd read about the biscuits, and all the rave reviews were warranted.....yum!! The whipped honey butter and side of strawberry jam made them even tastier. Our table (2 adult couples) had ribs, pork belly, and the pulled pork along with mac & cheese and salad. Every bite was delicious! I'm a huge fan of chef Tiffani so this restaurant was on our list of "must do's" and I'm so glad we did. Great atmosphere after the game and the service was excellent. Next time we are in Boston, we'll be sure to get back to Sweet Cheeks Q!

We had ribs, sliced brisket, The biscuits and wings The ribs were excellent. The brisket was really good and the wings were acceptably good. Overall the place, the service and the food was great. We will certainly be back.
