I have been living in the area all summer and am just now getting around to trying 4 Rivers. It was delicious and my only regret is not trying this place sooner! Some of our favorites are the pulled pork, green beans, corn, and salted caramel brownie! So good! If you aren’t familiar with 4 Rivers, you order in a line and take your food and sit down. It’s the best of both worlds.

Messy Pig with Burnt Ends, you guys! Hold the bun, substitute corn bread. Add a side salad. One other reviewer says the baked beans and corn bread are "just average". HUH? You must have been somewhere else to eat. The cornbread and the baked beans are THA BOMB!! Well, everything is great. Everything! Now... let's talk about the customer service. When you walk into this place, you feel like family. Everyone is smiling and nice, and you get a wonderful greeting as soon as you enter! Garrin, who prepared our meals, feels like you've known him all your life! Genuine, attentive, just a great human! We also had a terrific experience with Luke, a server in the dining room. What a nice young man! Even saw him wrangle a toddler before he escaped through the front door! This is our go-to, no-nonsense, good-eats spot. We LOVE 4 Rivers, and everything about it!! Great history about the beginnings of this restaurant, too!

I'm originally from KC...so I enjoy some good Q. I've tried a couple places here in FL and been disappointed. Looked online at shipping some KC Joe's or Jack Stack down here. Decided not to give up. Tried 4R. Was mostly pleasantly surprised, overall flavor was good. Had the brisket and burnt ends. Great smoke flavor on the brisket. Was overdone, had too much fat on it and was a bit salty but the flavor was good. Was happy they carried burnt ends, but I have no idea why you would put pulled pork in with the burnt ends. Was sort of a violation. Maybe it's a FL thing. Flav was good again but they were tough and dry. Regular sauce was good with the touch of vinegar. I'd try it again.

Came here because they have outdoor sitting. They have a sign at the door that's says masks are greatly appreciated but it was disappointing to see most people in line waiting to order were not wearing any masks and definitely not observing social distancing! This is despite the fact that there were markets in the floor! What is wrong with people!!!
Tables inside and outside were spaced out to follow social distancing guidelines.
Food is always excellent as always. Ribs, chicken and brisket are all moist and tender. Green beans and collard green sides are also delicious. Bread pudding is fantastic!

Always a great place for lunch or dinner with the family. 4Rivers is one of those places that if we can’t decide what to eat, everyone can find something there and it ends up being our go to spot. We don’t mind waiting in line to grab a tray full of tasty bbq. I personally love the pulled pork, pulled chicken, or burnt ends. My favorite sides are macaroni and cheese and the sweet potato casserole. If they have the bread pudding that day, I typically get that as well. The Bananas foster bread pudding is such a rich treat.
Come here with family or a group of friends, there’s room for everyone even if it seems busy. The outdoor seating is nice in the evening too.

We ordered on-line and had the meals delivered. Brisket dinner was very good. Rib dinner was also. Sides of collard greens, cornbread, BBQ beans, dinner rolls, cole slaw, and fried okra was tasty. I would highly recommend 4Rivers. We will have this again.

Had a wonderful lunch at 4 Rivers In Longwood. The cheese grits are my favorite and are always good. The ribs were very tasty and tender, and the brisket never fails to be delicious! The smokehouse is very clean, well organized and everyone was very friendly. The GM at this location does an outstanding job!

First time here. Excellent BBQ. The smoked turkey was moist and good portions. Had the fried okra and also coleslaw. Both were very very good. Wife had the moist brisket with collared greens and fried okra. She said all were excellent. All portions were good amounts. If in the area try it.

Was visiting friends who live in the Orlando area. I live outside Philadelphia. We were all hungry and wanted to have lunch. As 4 Rivers is a favorite of theirs we went there. I had some of the best pulled chicken I have ever eaten. So tender and flavorful. My friends had their favorite burnt ends sandwiches and raved about them as well. And the cornbread was so good. Prices very reasonable and service was quick even for as large an order as we had. Will be returning in January and will head straight here for lunch again.

My husband and I ate at the 4 Rivers in Longwood but was not happy with our meals.
We got the half chicken & half ribs. The portions were very good but the prices were too high for our fixed social security income.
The choice of sides was not the greatest, either. We had to pay extra for bread....who does that?
I'm afraid I can't recommend.

We used to live in Orlando and we know that 4 Rivers has the best barbecue! Back for a visit, we stopped at the Longwood location twice in 10 days. I must commend Garen (gentleman that cuts the brisket) for being so personable and for having the BEST attitude! He only has a short time to make an impression and both visits he was exceptionally engaged. He saw that my husband was wearing a MN Vikings hat and in 30 seconds connected about football. I hope you have a team member recognition award, if so, Garen is deserving. Oh, and we love your brisket!

My husband and I ordered for delivery. We had St.Louis ribs and they were very good and meaty. We didn't care for all the side dishes, but the sweet potato dish was good. We didn't like the beans or corn bread. So to us it was average.

We took some out of town family to 4 Rivers since they love barbecue. We had a problem getting our food out from the kitchen. The management team handled this better than anything we could have asked for. They were kind, professional and went above and beyond to make our dining experience great! Thank you 4 Rivers management and team! Food is always delicious, we will be back!

4 Rivers Smokehouse is my favorite barbecue by far! The food is consistently good at the Longwood location. The brisket and the cheese grits are my favorite!
