a month agoWorth the drive if you're wanting to experience great bbq. Ribs full of flavor and very tender. Datil Beans are also amazing.

a month agoBerndt Ends BBQ is hands down some of the best barbecue I’ve ever had. Everything about this place is genuine — from the food to the people behind it. The burger I had recently was absolutely incredible — perfectly cooked, juicy, and packed with bold, smoky flavor. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients and truly care about what they serve. The jalapeño poppers wrapped in bacon are a must-try. Crispy, flavorful, with just the right kick — seriously unforgettable. Their green beans and coleslaw are next level. These simple Southern staples are kept true to tradition but executed so well they become unforgettable. Beyond the food, what also makes Berndt Ends BBQ special is the heart behind it. The owners are a kind, welcoming couple who genuinely care about their customers and the community. The atmosphere is clean, relaxed, and inviting — the kind of place where you instantly feel at home. The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the overall value is excellent. If you love authentic barbecue, bold flavors, and locally owned restaurants with heart, this is a place you need to visit.

5 months agoPassing through on my way to Lake County and looking to take some BBQ home for supper. I got the sampler platter with 4 meats, 3 sides, Texas toast and two drinks. I added two additional meats and a turkey sandwich since we’re feeding 4. All the meats are so tender, juicy and delicious! The owner gave me a sample of turkey and brisket. We enjoyed their bbq beans, coleslaw and Mac and cheese. I’d be willing to drive the hour and 20 for the food again.

9 months agoWhy is it called bernt ends if they are unavailable? My husband was met by a woman who he couldn't hear because she was mumbling. We ordered 2 brisket only dinners. Apparently they were out of some sides as well. She never made it clear all they had for brisket was fatty. Well we ended up with 2 slices each of nothing but fat and 2 pork ribs. We dont eat pork. Before forget I will take a picture of their "sauce". It looks more like watery marinade. We spend alot eating out and are loyal good tippers. We were excited to try here . We will definitely be going to Lees BBQ in ocala when we want bbq. We consider it a waste of money. Unless for so.e reason it was just an off night I would not recommend.

11 months agoWe stopped here on the way to the springs and left about 10 pounds heavier. The food was excellent: you can’t go wrong with the ribs or the ultimate porker sandwich. The datil deviled eggs were also incredible. We’ll be back!

a year agoFood was amazing. Platters give plenty of food for the price. Brisket and jalapeno cheddar sausage was delicious. Nice dining area inside and outside. Service was wonderful. Beef rib special when available is worth it. Picked up the rib by the bone and the meat slid right off. Bacon jalapeno poppers and smoked deviled eggs are a great starter.
