Ken’s Bar B-Q

Surprising good, didn’t expect much from the view outside. Great BBQ, fried okra, and sweet potato fries.

Good food, friendly waitress and did I already say good food? Well, it was. Recommend.

BBQ restaurant, its a chain restaurant with I. This region. Always great service and friendly staff. The book us always hot and a full plate of food

Ken’s is once again under the management of the Ken Banister Family that started this local north Florida chain (4 places between Lake City and Madison) of BBQ restaurants after several years of management by another individual.
Ken’s BBQ here in Madison is still the same quality that I came to expect and judge other restaurants to since first eating here when I was in high school. The atmosphere is southern BBQ chic, with wooden tables, farm implements and pictures on the walls.
The been and the pork BBQ is sliced rather than pulled and is served clean with no sauce. You are welcome to add any of their three BBQ sauces to your taste. The few times I’ve had ribs they were fall off the bone moist and tender. The chicken comes out moist and juicy. They also have a daily special that can be BBQ, hamburger steak, NY Strip steak or whatever has amused the chef that day.

Clean and staff always friendly. I usually get the same thing every time but when I want something different they make great recommendations.

I went here based on another Unilocal recommendation but the food was not worth going out of the way. Chicken was not fully cooked, short ribs were burnt, pork was sliced and tasteless. There MUST be better BBQ options in Madison, people!!!
