Martin's -b-que Joint - Vestavia Hills

Jalapeño Sausage was not as spicy as you would expect. Great cut fries. Brocoli salad was great. Two friends enjoyed the brisket.Food: 4/5

Surprised at how nice and tasty the brisket and full slab or ribs was. Great potatoe salad and sides. First visit; won’t be the last.

I came in from GA, for an appointment at Vanderbilt. The atmosphere was okay it was very hot like the AC was broken. However, the staff was friendly and welcoming. I ordered a variety of menu items (catfish tacos, smoked dry-rubbed wings, Brunswick stew, mac&cheese, baked beans, potato salad, pulled pork sandwich, spare ribs, and brisket). The wings, ribs, potato salad, and baked beans were amazing! Everything else was okay.

The ribs were perfectly cooked and sauced, although I found the brisket to be a bit dry which is why 4stars but I recommend trying for yourselfFood: 4/5

Absolutely best bbq around. Mac and cheese was super flavorful. Also one of the few places in bham that have brisket. Their brisket burger is also a must try. Great atmosphere and plenty of shaded outdoor seating with fans.Food: 5/5
