I have spent years searching for acceptable ribs in the Rockville/Silver Spring area and have consistently been disappointed. Until I tried Urban. Its ribs are among the best I've had, including those in Texas and Tennessee. Tender, meaty, with a just-right smoky flavor. And the red sauce is great! NO wonder the bottle is always almost empty whenever I've been there. The greens and slaw are both original and very tasty. The corn bread has bits of corn in it. It is good, but just a tad "cakey" for my taste. While others have called the place "pricey", I've found it much more reasonable --- and way better --- than the chains claiming to be rib places. The sausage/fritos side dish (forgot the name) is also very good. Great!!!!
I've been coming for several years and LOVE the BBQ and all the offerings at Urban. The wings are fantastic, the ribs tender and smoked just right. The pulled pork is equally impressive. I love the 'yella sauce, just the right combination of mustard and sweet. We bring all our out-of-town guests here and everyone agrees: Urban BBQ rocks! Even my relatives from the South say so. Just get there early for lunch--or you won't get a table.
