What Our Guests Are Saying

“As a vegetarian, a barbecue spot usually wouldn't be my first pick, but I CRAVE their quinoa salad with balsamic dressing, mac & cheese and waffle fries. Move over Slow's, this is the best mac & cheese in southeast MI!”

"Red Rock is my favorite restaurant in Ypsilanti. I can't think of a single thing they could improve on. I love the brick, the beautiful bar, the great whiskey selection, the service, and the food. They have burnt ends! The delicious, fatty and crispy end pieces of a beautiful brisket. They also have the best Brussels sprouts I have ever had...The service is great and so are the happy hour prices."

"Awesome BBQ place in Ypsi. Saw this place a few times and finally got a chance to try it. They got quite a selection of draft beer. Got the ribs, and it was delicious! Love their sauce, a bit on the sweeter side so mix up the sauces! Sides are generous and good, too."
