“ This is my go-to for barbecue chicken wings. The sauce is the best around town. Fried fresh chicken and grilled ribs right in the shop. If you get a chance stop by and get you some ”
“ We come here at least 2-3 times out the month. We get 20 wings and a box of fries. It's the sauce for me. Love love love. I just hate this the only one in the area. The food is cooked to order, so your food will be fresh and hot. The building is very small. So it's hot if there's a lot of ppl in there and it's a hot day. No place to sit in there. ”
“ I’ve been going here since the 80s and I’m from MI, this place is my summer’s coming to Cleveland for the summer. Food is the same and is ALWAYS my first stop when I’m in town and all I eat when I’m there!! ”
“ This was my first time eating here today & I was very impressed. I ordered the "center rib dinner". The ribs are grilled perfectly with a honey barbecue sauce, French fries with BBQ sauce on everything and just the right amount of sauce. Finally their coleslaw which also was very tasty I spent 12.00 for this dinner plate. With the size of the ribs and the amount of side dishes this is a great deal. Their staff are excellent and they prepare your order very quickly. Don't miss your chance to try this place. Best BBQ in town for sure. ”
“ I've been going to this place since I was in junior high (70's) . I sure miss the spot on Hayden. It's those hole in the wall / mom & pop spots that often have the best food with generous portions. 105th keep that original sauce, wings , fries, ribs, and polish boys going! ”
“ I mean, still the very best bbq in Cleveland. We always have a polish boy, rib dinner, and chicken dinner with coleslaw. We divide and conquer the sweet, smoky saucy BBQ and enjoy every minute. Normally, pulling the car over to indulge. Please, y'all keep doing what you do, and don't change a thing!! Authentic Cleveland experience. Thank you! ”
“ I am from Cleveland, East Side Glenville, and I know some B&M BBQ. My favorite is the one on 105th, original OG, and even when I return home from Virginia, I stop at the 105th location, especially for my ribs. You can see them grilling them and smell and taste the charcoal. Just here today, 1/16/2025, and got some ribs right off the grill, and man, they live up to my expectations. I left Cleveland for the military in 1978 and never forgot B&Ms. Sometimes, like this visit, I drive from Richmond, Virginia, primarily for some B&M Ribs and Wings. Kim's is another favorite restaurant for wings. v/r, Dr. Ken KIng ”
“ Sent my boyfriend there for a half slab of ribs they tasted old and dry smothered in sauce I thought they would have gotten better since the last time but it seems to have gotten worse.So sad.I hope the owner gets this rest back together ”
