After staying away from this place for a few years due to different owners and the taste of sauce and food was not the same. Now the original people have bought it back and I can say the Bbq ribs and sauce was on point. (Sunday August 9 2026)

I was really craving some rib tips and fries, and the older lady taking my order was super polite and nice. But when I got my food, I noticed the portion size didn't really match the price. I also ordered half a pound of shrimp, and I kept saying the amount I wanted because I could see how little she was giving me. When I got home, the rib tips were all burnt ends and bone tips, over fries Plus, she charged me $15 for 5 shrimp! That's really bad business.

I live right around the corner and always make it a point to support local businesses—and Vikki’s Legendary Detroit Pit Barbecue truly earns its name. The food is rich with flavor, cooked with love, and always served with that genuine Detroit hospitality that makes you feel right at home. The smoky aroma hits you before you even walk in, and every bite reminds you you’re eating something special. This is the kind of place that carries the spirit of the neighborhood—honest, soulful, and unforgettable. If you’re in Detroit and want real barbecue made from the heart, Vikki’s is the spot.

I've never written a food review before. But after yesterday's (6/1/25) disappointment with Vikki's BBQ (under new ownership) I have to speak out. I was so happy to see that my now used to be favorite BBQ was reopened. I paid $31.00 and when I got home and opened my bag I found some mostly burned up ribs and sauce that did not taste like the original Vikki's. The sauce had a grainy texture like a lot of paprika had been added and didn't dissolve. The ribs tasted like they were reheated, mostly had a burned crust on them and only part of the slab was edible. The server was very nice, but then not so nice because she had to see that those ribs were burnt. That only food star is for the baked beans which were delicious.

This place is the bomb for ribs the sides were just OK but I enjoyed the ribs very much the sauce is boss. The lady was very helpful I explain to her I was visiting from Cleveland and she hook me up with a nice dinner with nice desserts they sell such as the lemon pie which I had all it was the bomb. The sauce is very good I was very shocked the taste of it the ribs were just fall off the bone goodness I will be back. Thanks Vickies!
