Editorial Review for R & L Home of Good Barbeque – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
The Central District has been home to this Seattle staple for 50 years. Owner Mary Collins Davis alder-smokes her meats, then adds her own sauce. Picks include meaty ribs, brisket and hot links, served in sandwiches or as part of dinner platters. Extra-hungry diners go for the Four-Way platter (three meats plus chicken for two people) with white bread and potato salad or beans.

Okay so I just got home from dining here. I can barely move! I am so full...! Our good friends were celebrating tonight..so the birthday boy decided to check city search for the best BBQ around. They drove from Bellevue, we drove from Kent, and we met some nice folks at the next table that drove from Lynnwood. From the look of the area, the small building..we did not know what to expect. Our server gave us the menu to choose from, then we go up to the window and order. They only take cash. This is a family business. So we got our food...and WOW!!! all I can say is WOW!...if you like BBQ you will definately like R&L. We had the brisket, ribs, chicken, pork, black eyed peas and rice, baked beans, sweet potato pie, peach cobbler...I could not stop eating...but eventually i had to stop because my eyes were about to tear up from being so full. I t was so glld that all 10 of us will be coming back. The couple from Lynnwood took some sweet potatoe pie to go...they stated they will be coming back... What a treat to find. Sherri our server was the sweetest ever. Her grandparents opened up this establishment. The next generation still operate the place. Great hospitality from Barbara at the counter. When we left Sherri gave us a nice big hug. Now that is what I call hospitality. We will be coming back time and time again. FYI...we did not get the greens that I wanted because they were all sold out. So if you want greens get there early. Thank you R & L for a wonderful dining experience...2 hours later and Istill can't breath my belly is bulging...hahaha!
Pros: Everything!
Cons: Trying to find parking

The hours are a bit odd but their product is great. The brisket melts in your mouth and they're very sweet to everyone that walks in the doors. I highly recommend getting an order to go and taking it to your favorite spot. We love taking out of town guests there and then taking them somewhere special to eat it.
