The ribs are like none I've ever tasted before. They are so tender and tasty...it's hard not to get yourself dirty with BBQ sauce. You just want to keep eating them. Fortunately, the portions are HUGE that I always have some left over for the next day. If you want good BBQ this summer, I suggest you forget your grills at home and give Cubby's a try!

Great place to go if you want a unique BBQ experience. You get big portions and everything on your plate tastes delicious! It's counter service so everything comes out quick even though everything is cooked fresh.

The best BBQ in Jersey!!! Can't get enough. They have a huge selection of burgers, sandwiches, steaks, etc. that you can always find something tasty. The portions are HUGE! I always have leftovers for lunch the next day. I'd have to say that it is probably my favorite restaurant of all time!

Best BBQ ribs around!!! It seems like their baby back ribs have no fat on them...all meat. You are getting a true full or half rack with garlic bread and your choice of side. The portions are very generous. I often have to take some home because it's hard to eat that much food in one sitting. Well, at least for me and many of my friends. Other ribs, such as the st. louis cut, look like they're bigger but that's because they are a much fattier rib. It's false advertisement. Cubby's, on the other hand, is the real deal! I love their food, have been coming here for years and have never been disappointed!

Great tasting BBQ! I like that they serve their food hot and made to order. This place has it going on. I even recently found out that there is a book out called Eating with the Enemy and that they are making a movie about the owner. It's definitely a restaurant to check out!

I must say that the grilled chicken salad is really good. The cottage fries and macaroni and cheese was excellent too. I had the BBQ ribs and it was great. It's not a fancy place but it does have a good home cooking kind of feel to it. The service is excellent, definitely a must visit!

My friends brought me here about two months ago and ever since that day I have become a devoted customer. The food is amazing and the service is awesome. They have such a big selection for their menu that it is impossible to get bored of their food. I recommend trying the BBQ pork sandwich on garlic bread. It's perfection.

I love what they did with the place. It has a lot of character and a great story behind it. The service has always been friendly but the best thing about Cubby's is their BBQ!

BEST BBQ!!! hands down the best place I've tried in Jersey! I got to meet the owner who has an amazing story. There is actually a book called Eating with the Enemy about him and he said they're in the process of making a movie! Definitely check this place out.

It has great food. Everyone is right, the BBQ ribs are amazingg!!! The service is pretty good, they said it was a 10 to 15 min wait but they let us in before then so it's fairly fast service even when it's busy.

I go to this place often and as far as I'm concerned it's the best place to eat around the area for the food and service is excellent. What I like about it is that it is counter service so you dont have to make reservations. All the workers who take my order are very friendly and the busboy is always attentive to the tables. Overall, if you want a place that is quick, with fantastic food, service, and good atmosphere then this is the place for you!

This is a great spot to go! I am a vegetarian but eat fish and had a delicious grilled salmon that was so tender it melted in my mouth! The side dishes that I had were also very tasty. I would recommend this place to both vegetarians and meat lovers because my friends who eat meat can never stop talking about the BBQ ribs.

This is my favorite place to stop for lunch. My work is only 10 minutes away so it is very convenient. They have the best BBQ pork sandwiches, sliced steak sandwiches, and burgers than any other place that I've tried. There menu is so big that lunch is never dull. If you enjoy a good meal then I suggest you stop here, you won't be disappointed.

This restaurant had the best tasting BBQ ribs I've ever had! They're one of the first ribs I've had that fall right off the bone. It's a definitely a must try no matter how far away you live. You won't regret it!

My family and I go out usually every other week. It was hard to pick out a place that both my kids and I enjoyed until we found Cubby's. Surprisingly, my little picky eaters love practically everything on the menu. The ribs being their favorite. It makes me happy to see my kids enjoy good quality food instead of fast food junk. Not only is the food amazing but the atmosphere of the place is unique. I would recommend it to anyone!

I would consider myself a healthy eater so when my now husband first said we were going to Cubby's BBQ, I was a bit skeptical because I didn't think they would have anything that would satisfy my diet. I was completely wrong. They have tasty grilled chicken salads, grilled salmon, and other things on their menu that have me coming back for more. So now when my husband and I go out for dinner, he is able to have what he calls their mouthwatering ribs while I am able to have a deliciously healthy meal. I even go on my own now whenever I want a quick bite to eat for lunch. Definitely the place to eat!

I can’t think of a better restaurant than this, it just has it all. The restaurant itself looks beautiful on the inside and the outside. The service is friendly. The food is AMAZING!!! I have been coming here for many years and I’ve tried almost everything on the menu and I have never had something that I didn’t like. You will not be disappointed in dining here, I guarantee it!

I love their food so much that I had them cater my college graduation party a while back. The ribs were such a big hit that they were the first thing gone. Whenever my parents decide to take me out to dinner, Cubby's is always my first pick. The service and food is just unbeatable.

AMAZING FOOD! My buddies and I go there all the time. Whether it be before games, for lunch, or even dates with the ladies ;) the food and service never disappoints. There is so much to offer on the menu that it is hard not to find something you like. Of course I love the ribs and that is my usual order but sometimes I also switch it up with the BBQ pork sandwich or the sliced steak sandwich. If you haven't tried this place then you're missing out because it has the BEST BBQ in Jersey!
