Husband said he'd bring me anywhere I wanted to go for my birthday. Picked Oh Dennis and was totally disappointed. Waited forever for our meal. A $21 had a filet nugget and six ribs w/ 2 bare bones underneath. Half a plate of potatoes to fill the plate. Sent it back. Hope their not on their way down w/ Dad... More

Ribs in Racine Wisconsin? Seriously? Yes! This little unassuming 'joint' serves up some of the best ribs anywhere in the country. Fall off the bone, perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. The servers are always friendly and helpful. Don't expect much in the way of decor unless you're a fan of neon. Don't let having to come in the back... More

For years and years I've hated ribs... not fond of the messiness and the fact that you have to eat that small amount of meat off of the bone. However, Oh Dennis's changed my mind forever! I ordered the special, the BBQ Pork Tenderloin. Came with a salad and mash potatoes for $10.95 - it was a great deal and... More

This is a small neighborhood restaurant that serves incredible food. You absolutely must try the ribs if you go to Oh Dennis'. Every time I go I intend to try something else but cannot pass on the ribs. The staff is incredibly efficient and nice. They only serve food between 5 & 8 so plan accordingly. I have friends who...

I am really only rating the Ribs here, as besides appetizers and side dishes they are all I've ever really ate here. There are the best in town. Cooked perfect, finished on the grill, and very tasty. The place is usually busy, has a very basic bar like atmosphere, and is not extravagent in any way. The food speaks for... More

Arrive early or go during the week because we're not the only ones who love this place. Their ribs are fabulous. Also love the tempura shrimp, coconut shrimp, deep fried eggplant, pork chops.....well never had a bad meal here. The service is friendly and efficient. Love this place!

This is a very casual and down-home kind of place! If you arrive just prior to opening up for the evening, you can get a table providing all your "party" is with you as they do not take reservations. This place gets packed and you may have to wait 45mins. like we did by just arriving 15 mins. after opening!... More

We've never been disappointed with their rib dinners and consider them top on our list for ribs. Kind of that Kansas City taste to them. Go early because they pack em in here.
