Went for dinner.... Was just OK...pretty tasteless...fries, corn bread, and Mac and cheese sides were actually pretty good, but the pulled pork was tasteless at best, tasted like a leftover fridge at worst.... Wifes ribs were OK, but mass market chains were better....chicken sandwich my daughter had as "OK"... But EVERYTHING NEEDED SAUCE...no-sauce, no taste. And the owner was ranting about bad reviews and how locals do not understand BBQ...spoke of a review by a blogger...he said he " refuted line by line" and it was 100% false...IMO the guy is blinded by dilusions of himself... Wish he would TASTE HIS OWN FOOD....unfortunately everything was reheated leftovers...nothing fresh judging by the taste...so Just wish he would listen to his customers and not just his friends posting....this shop got nearly shutout at the local rib/BBQ competition... They got a low level award..... Just wish the food showed the same effort as the decorations....

Smoked chicken wing are off the hook good! You cant leave without trying them! Whole wings, slow smoked, then deep fried just before serving. Super yummy. Memphis ribs are great, just get there early because they tend to sell out. early on the weekends. Great unusual micro brewed draft beer, the same in bottles and cans. Great sauces too. Small but cozy. And they play great blues music all night long. Very friendly staff and owner. Only complaint?. They close @ 9:00 PM but Ive thatll be changing with a planned expansion and extended hours! A++++

I went there a few times. It was good until I went there yesterday, which is Feb 15, 2016. I ordered smoked wings as usual and when I bit into it, the meat near bone area was a little bit bloody. And my boyfriend went to talk to them about it, one of employees said it was normal. She said, they smoked the wings for hours and deep fried them for 7-8 minutes, it should not be an issue. I took a picture of the wings so I can write review for this restaurant. I wish I can post the pictures through google review so you guys will believe what I said.

RiversideBBQ has a good selection of their own BBQsauces ranging from tangy sweet to spicy and hot. The staff are very friendly. They are currently expanding into the adjacent side of the building which will greatly expand seating. They also offer out door seating. There is a great selection of staple drinks (sodas), as well as root beer, cream soda, and honey mead on tap. They carry a pretty diverse selection of beers also. My biggest complaint is that they only carry DownEast Hard Cider.

Love their food, but its just so damn inconsistent, argghhh! Sometimes they fries are fresh and amazing, sometimes theyre cold. Usually my sandwich is excellent, but last time I went I got served a burger in a huge puddle of grease. The bun was smothered in a thick layer of butter and the whole thing was disgusting and inedible. Will continue to visit in hopes that they get a handle on consistency, but for now its a 3-star hit-or-miss restaurant.

Shared a 3 meat platter, which is plenty for two. The burnt ends were tasty, but pre-sauced and greasy. The brisket was good, nicely lean but just on the edge of dry. The sausage had peppers and onions; lots of flavor but not a lot of smoke. The brisket chili was excellent. The sides were okay - they could have been more generous on the cornbread. Hot doughnuts for dessert! The service and music were great. Overall, good but not awesome.

Food is delicious. Everything tastes great and the portions are good. Pulled pork and steak tips are slow cooked hours before serving, and are ready when you order. Wait time for a full meal is only a couple of minutes. French fries look homemade and are excellent. They have draft root beer which is tastes great as well. One of Nashuas best. It is pricey, but you get what you pay for.

Food was not anything special. Bbq was blah and sides were good. Same as the other crappy local BBQ places in Nashua. The service wad not good. The people working had no clue what beers were on top and basically were terrible. That alone made me want to leave before even ordering. Would love to support a local place, but just cant do it.

This is the place for BBQ and spirits. Ever since they opened the other side and made it a bar with more table for more people. We can meet more of our friends there when we are in town. We have a place now in Florida-Jimmy Bears and one in NH Riverside Barbeque Company. We get the burnt ends since those are our best...

Great BBQ place which can be hard to find in the central New England area. Their burnt ends sandwich smothered in a mixture of their own riverside BBQ and sweet caroline sauce was phenomenal and the fried pickles were good though a little on the hot side for my personal taste. An amazing dining experience overall.

Really solid southern BBQ, and always a great beer selection, whether on tap or bottled. They have a rotating selection of homemade sauces, and Ive yet to have a bad one. My personal favorite is the smoked beef brisket. Also, keep an eye on the specials board for random dessert specials that will blow your mind.

Ribs overcooked, flavor was flat, lack smoke flavor,no smoke ring, definitely needed the sauce. Brisket,dry , rubbery overcooked,not much on flavor, again definitely need the sauce. Sides were about the same nothing special, Go to Goody Coles or KCs Ribshack Ive even had good luck at Willie Jewels.

A buddy and I wandered down last Friday to see if I could get a bowl of the Brunswick Stew that theyd offered at the NSK&S "Empty Bowls" event on Wednesday. No luck. Too bad, too, because it was awesome. So, I had a brisket reuben instead. Guess what? It was awesome, too.

Dave truly treats his customers like family. We have used Riverside for catering some large family gatherings and couldnt be happier with the service and food. Highly recommend using them if you want delicious food served up with sides of kindness and sincerely.

Great food. Good music. Im originally from Austin TX and Riverside is the only place to get bbq around here that is any good. Only place to get Shiner Bock too! Service at the bar can be a little slow sometimes is only reason didnt get 5 stars

Very good BBQ. Decor is very nice. They are attempting to make it feel very deep south. Only thing i would suggest is Sweet Potato Fries. Also the sweet tea is not really that great. Otherwise everything else is great.

Their original sauce is probably the best in the area. They also have REAL cheese which I havent been able to find since living in PA. The owner is a genuinely nice guy too. This place definitely deserves 5 stars.

I read other reviews before I made my choice to try here. I might have caught them on a bad day. Lunch time on a Saturday. Was not crowded but was out of half the menu and broken fryers, and out of tap soda.
