Stevia Sweet Bbq - Venice

Service slow and restaurant looks fairly old and worn inside. I tried the baby back ribs, they were only okay. Kinda dry, put a combo of Gold Rush Bbq sauce hot bbq sauce and it didn’t help. Had Mac and cheese along with pineapple cheese casserole on the side, both were okay. We didn’t leave hungry but our overall review was just mediocre.

Had the Brisket sandwich, it was terrible, they have no idea what BBQ Brisket is. It was dry and tasted like old roast beef. We have had Brisket many times in Texas, we know what good Brisket is.. My wife had the Pulled Pork sandwich, it was also dry.. The service was great and the sides were good. Last time going there.

This place is going downhill. Last time we had a very good experience but not this time . Poor food quality and poor service. Dried chopped bbq pork and dried chopped pork, soggy and cold French fries and cold cornbread . The Cole slaw was good . Being rushed by waiter . Poor service. Waiter took orders, 4 minutes later food was delivered and never saw our waiter again ! Very disappointed and will never go back . Waiters couldn’t care less if we were satisfied. The wipes were all dried out !

I went here on July 4th and it was pa led! Luckily we weee able to get one of the only tables left. The chopped pork sandwich and bbq beans were so very delicious!

Another outstanding meal at Gold Rush. There were seven of us and the service by Erik Vazquez was outstanding. The food was delicious as usual. Best BBQ in town for sure. We also appreciate their support of Venice Football.
