Bad Ash Bbq - Gasport

Awesome once again. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Food is phenomenal as usual. I had the pulled pork with fresh cut fries. My wife had ribs, potato salad and corn bread. So good!!!

This is about our 8th time coming here. I recommend it to anyone that enjoys good bbq locally. Staff always friendly. Food is consistent in taste. Have tried ribs pulled pork all sides. Usually there are 2 of us that come we share different sides. Can not go wrong with your visit. Portions are good size too. Always leave with containers/box of my meal I can't finish...I advise anyone to check them out and see for yourself. Dont think you will be disappointed!!

In recent years, we've seen restaurant choices in Olcott/Olcott Beach come and go. Until very recently, your choices for restaurants in the immediate village were, one good but rather expensive restaurant, one small diner with mostly passable food, and one restaurant with a reputation for both poor food and poor service. So when we learned that Bad-Ash BBQ was opening a restaurant in Olcott in mid-July, we were thrilled. We waited for them to get established in their new location and then we went there for dinner one recent Saturday. You can dine inside, or outside on a large covered deck with a view of the lake. The weather was beautiful that day, so we chose a table outside on the deck. The deck was roughly 1/3 full of customers when we arrived there just before 5 pm. We were seated immediately and given menus. The menu primarily features various BBQ meats and assorted side dishes, all priced separately. We ordered a pulled-chicken sandwich with cole slaw, a half-rack of BBQ baby back ribs with homemade French fries, and beverages. It took nearly 25 minutes for our meals to appear, but it was worth the wait. The large pulled-chicken sandwich was hot, tender, juicy, and very tasty. My 1/2 rack of BBQ ribs contained a generous 7-rib portion that was hot, tender, very delicious, and slid off the bones. The French fries were hot, crispy, and delicious as well. Our server was friendly and very attentive throughout our meal. Our check totaled $27 for both meals and beverages. Not inexpensive, but roughly what you'd pay for good BBQ elsewhere. I love BBQ ribs, and order them whenever I can but, I never know what to expect when I order ribs. I've had some very good ribs, and some not so good ribs, so I'm a bit hesitant when I'm given that option in a restaurant. Based on our recent experience here, we have no reservation about eating here again ASAP, or for recommending this restaurant or their BBQ. If this restaurant continues to provide delicious BBQ and good service, they should do very well in this location, along with giving visitors to Olcott a viable option for good food. *And now for the disclaimers. This is a new restaurant in a new location, and, like all new restaurants, they're working through the usual start-up headaches. Be aware, they smoke a set amount of meat daily to limit the amount of meat that's wasted at the end of each day. So when that day's meat is sold out, there's no more until the next day. My recommendation is to get there early for dinner to help ensure that you're not disappointed, especially when there are special events in town. Thanks for taking the time to read this review.

Honestly, it was absolutely fantastic! I had never been here before, and the owner personally came over to explain how everything worked. He was kind, friendly, and had a great sense of humor. The food arrived quickly, was piping hot, and tasted amazing. We ordered the garbage platter, and there wasn't a single thing we wanted to waste. We'll definitely be returning. The atmosphere was laid-back and inviting. This is definitely a great spot for tourists looking for something new and fun!

My husband and I visited Niagara Falls yesterday and decided to stop for lunch. We debated whether to try a new place or revisit a restaurant we had been to before. We're so glad we chose to try this spot! The food was excellent, the prices were reasonable, and the staff was very friendly. We enjoyed our meal outside while taking in the beautiful scenery, making it one of the best lunches we've had. The grill items were particularly impressive! I highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area.
