Wildside BBQ Bar & Grill (via Tienta Holdings, llc) Review

This place is awesome! Shawn was our waiter. He did a great job. Great waiter. Food was awesome. Great portions for the price!

Well the food was great. Got there at 645pm and had our food 20 minutes later, not bad compared to some of these reviews. I gave it a 3 but would've giving it a 4 if the prices were more affordable.

Loved everything about this place from the food to the service and atmosphere was great. Our server was the best I have ever had at any establishment would go back over and over again.

The meats are awesome tender and tasty but the sides were very bland bearly any taste the mac and cheese just taste like orange looking noodles not good at all but the best thing they had was the BAKED BEANS they were delicious

The food was delicious. Pricey, but worth it. Fried cheese cake was not that great.

Very good brisket. Sarah was a great server. Nice selection and serving size. Would definitely recommend this barbecue place.

We try to come here every time we're in Orlando. The food is excellent, the atmosphere is lively, and the service, overall, is usually attentive.
The only reason this has 4 stars and not five is because I feel like they mis-managed a particularly busy night of multiple 7+ people tables. Those tables got the attention they needed, but the smaller tables around did not.
Probably because of multiple larger reservations, I think they tried to alleviate additional stress on the servers, so My husband and I were seated near the bar, where after 10 minutes of sitting patiently, the bartender finally saw us and came over. He obviously was not used to table service, since he took our order on a napkin (please note: this means we had plenty of time to review the menu and decide on what we wanted, a lengthy process for me.). The service from that gentleman did not get any better throughout the night. Food was great, this man's service was abyssal.
We also witnessed another table ask for the manager, go find his office, and then leave. I don't know their details, though I suspect it was similar.
This most recent experience was probably one of the worst I've ever had with restaurant service.
Ironically enough, I did see the waiters hustling on all of the other tables in their sections, even the larger party ones.

This place is usually pretty good in all aspects, that's why one bad night didn't lower the stars.

So, when we go back, we will ensure that we DO NOT sit near the bar .. and I recommend that if you are there for a meal, you stay away from the bar as well.

Bar food...hardly worth the stop....took an hour to get food...don't eat here

Loved this place. The BBcue was fantastic!!! Definitely, a class of it's own. They have the largest, best fries I've ever had, and the atmosphere is friendly, and we had one of the best waiters who delivered our food right from the oven on a large cast iron plate full of ribs and fries. This was a memorable experience I won't forget..kudos!

Worst restaurant I ever ate at!!! Food was the worst and the wait staff looked like a bunch of crack heads!!!! Seriously don't go there....

Oct 12 - early dining so place just starting to fill up. Food excellent, not the cheapest but really tasty and large portions (no one had a steak so cannot comment on them). Nachos starter could have been a main it was that big...shared by 4 people! Ribs and chicken fantastic seasonings. Well recommended. Had alsorts of sport on tvs all around, but our visit did not coincide with live events so cannot rate on that front. Food rated better than the outback on our experience.

Food was ok but expensive. We waited over an hour for our food to be served but the waitress did explain that they had messed up the order in the kitchen. She then arranged for 20% to be knocked off our bill. Service was ok but compared to other restaurants i have been to this week it was below what it should be especially for the prices being charged.

The food wasnt bad but it wasnt great either. Our server was awesome though.

Walked in and they gave 2 of us a table big enough for 6, in the back, by the service door. The waiter, nice guy but very rough around the edges. Instead of asking me how I was doing, he asked "what's wrong?" I said "life"(there wasn't anything wrong) He then proceeded to tell us about his gout! WTF? Who does that? I'm getting ready to eat, I don't need that visual. Long story short, the baby back ribs came out, they were cold, dry, and still had the membrane attached! Where did they get the chef, Waffle House?!! SMDH!
Then we had to listen to a loud mouthed expediter shouting at the service door "DOOR" each time she came out. Uncool and unnecessary! The manager came out and apologized and payed the check. Way too little too late. Do your due-diligence and train your people better! Never going back!

Took way to long for food to be served and the brisket was mostly fat. Over salted on everything. No one finished their whole dinner. Not a good bbq.

Tasty food and a very welcoming environment. My wife and I stopped by while on vacation, and had a great time chatting with the manager, Brian, and the rest of the crew! We highly recommend the Gator Bites and Fried Cheesecake :)

Horrible 1 waiteress for entire place very slow and severely over priced for medocer BBQ

Everything was delicious but it was so dark, my friends couldn't see the menu!

Best BBQ in Kissimmee! Their ribs are so delicious and the fried cheesecake, holy moly!! 100% you have to try this place!

This is a new addition to our restaurant tour when we go to Florida.

Don't ever eat here! Over priced, waiters eat off your plate in the back. Bar is slow. Bartender is too busy whoring to men at bar. They cant bartend at all! Brian gives discounts so your meal is free! Come get your free meal! Ghetto staff.

Do you like BBQ? This place is AWESOME!!!! Great atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff! And the food was OUTSTANDING! Very disappointed that we found this on our last day here!

Overpriced especially when they give you 2 bites worth of macaroni and cheese for a side and steak fries that are engulfed in grease and are so thin they can give you a papercut....meat was tasty but nothing to write home about. The service was slow and they charged me extra just to get baby back ribs instead of st Louis ones. Good but rather find a place that deserves my business especially when there are alot of the same type of bbq restaurants up and down the vicinity.

Best food and drink ever. Had great time during my visit. Recommended

First time at wildside BBQ. It seemed like a very pleasant place as we were the very first customers of the day. It has that restaurant chain feel to it but the service and food was pretty good. I forgot to take pictures of the food so I just have pictures of the building. I had the st. Louis style dry rub ribs along with the mac and cheese and potato salad. All were very pleasant my friend had the brisket and Caesar salad. It was a little disappointed that they only had the lunch menu at lunch time and the full menu was off-limits. The bathrooms were clean and the service was fairly prompt. All in all it was an average experience.

My rating system consists of a 3-star being exactly what you expected and neither good nor bad. A 4 means something was extra special and a 5 means you were blown away. A 2 star rating was disappointing and a 1-star rating is terrible

Good food, decent size portion, good customer service

Ribs were OK. Brisket was overdone and dried out. Barbecue sauce was helpful. Fried Okra was undercooked.
There are better options for barbecue food in the area.

Phenominal pulled pork. Bartender was fantastic and the food was ready pronto.

Service slow. No follow up during my 30 minute wait. Food good but sevice, not!!!!

The staff was amazing. I thought the food was decent but maybe a little over priced for the quality and taste of food. The restaurant was very busy, but still very clean. The waitress seemed to anticipate everything that our group would have needed. The atmosphere was great. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Cassidy waitress was so much helpful due my mom have problems to eat the food as normal person, but she did her best to satisfy our needs. Everything was good, just the... Gravy is a little bit salty and... The BBQ hamburger needs more BBQ sauce. But everything was really good, thank you Wildside Texas BBQ

It was absolutely the most amazing experience. After spending all day in the theme parks we stopped here bc we were do hungry. No Wait .. food was served in a timely manner and I must say that it was the best steak I have ever eaten. Our waitress was simply the best and oh how I wish I could remember her name.. she was friendly, attentive but not overly extending herself ... Great experience!

Great BBQ, lots of smoky oak flavor. Good sized portions, the kids loved the mac and cheese. A little too pricey for a casual family restaurant.

Service is horrible, people that work here are rude and don't care. We decided to sit at the bar and it took 20 minutes for the bartender to take our order, but he had no problems serving beers to his pals. I would understand if the place was at least pack but the place was empty. I would recommend Texas roadhouse though, excellent food

If you have read the reviews for this restaurant, then you have heard of John. Let me tell you the stories are true! John is a legend. We had a great dining experience as a direct result of John's expertise. The food was hot, plentiful and tasty. I enjoyed the pulled pork, and my husband raved about the ribs. A clean place and a friendly face makes a difference.

Really good bbq here. We stayed at the hotel next door and ate here 2 times while it was so good. Everyone was friendly and fast on service. Will definitely eat here again if in the area.

Traveling for work and staying in the Holiday Inn Villa next door. Place looked enticing, waitresses were extremely pleasant. We ordered the Ribs (house specialty) and the Ribeye and shrimp. Two people and $90.00 (alcohol was on a separate tab) lighter, it was one of the worst meals for the money that either myself of my traveling companion had ever had. We voiced our opinion to no avail as expected for a transient resort area. Do yourself a favor and seek a quality meal elsewhere.

Not to bad brisket was dry and over done ribs were excellent

Workers are super nice. The host was very slow about setting when the place was pretty much empty. The drinks and food was good.

Great place to eat, thought they had more seafood though .

Had the BBQ Chicken Nachos. They were delicious. Also had some homemade Sangria that was really good. Would go again.

When in FL you gotta try gator!
It was sooo good. It tastes like fried shrimp.I wasn't to crazy about the food. It was a miss for me but Gator was food, great environment and staff

Place is amazing and has great food. Staff is easy to talk to and makes sure you have everything you need. I would recommend this place anytime and ask for Eric as you re server.

Amazing! Food and service were great highly recommended ignore the negative comments dont hesitate. So good!

Usually don't do reviews but this place just served me the most flavor blasted pulled pork I've ever had! Go here if you are in Orlando!

Very good good food and lots of it. We should have split a meal the baked beans are the best I have ever had.

We waited over 1 hour for our food and when it finally came to the table it was not even hot...the excuse we were told is that everyone came at once...really??? What does that have to do with the price of tea in China??? We received a Beverage on the house... They should've at least offered 10%off our check! First impression was HORRIBLE! Want go back there!

If you order nachos they will assume you want chicken instead of beef.

Took a bit to get our drinks and the orders came out wrong, but they fixed it fast and we're super nice. Love the brisket! I am a curvy gal... Their booths and tables are small!

Avoid this place!!!! I visited during my vacation and our hotel gave us a coupon for this place, that's the reason we went in. The food is HORRIBLE!!! The steak was cold, rubbery and had no flavor! The vegetables were way over cooked and the drinks were nasty! Not to mention the overpriced! It's better if you go for pizza or Macdonald's, we wanted a decent meal but ended up regretting it!

Toughest ribs I have ever had. Could hardly cut them with a knife. Also ordered the okra which has a extra two dollar charge..that's a RIP off you get maybe a small kids hand full of okra. I have honestly had better ribs in Costa Rica.....and which isn't even smoked. I hate giving this bad of a review but the food was horrible for the price.
Server was good neat decor just bad food.

Excellent food, poor service. It took five servers to do one servers job! Every time we needed something someone different came to our table. They weren't very packed at the time.

They were out of brisket on a Saturday night. Both their chicken and turkey both tasted like lighter fluid. The pulled pork was ok. Service was slow, but only saw 2 people working on a Saturday

Went in with the family. Have a lot of experience with BBQ places. Was terrible. Would have given less stars if I could. The steak had to be cooked 3 times. YES 3 TIMES. I m convinced that the last time was microwaved.... when it only takes 2 minutes to re-fire a steak??? Cmon people. The ribs were more fat and grizzle than anything and completely under cooked. It s not the waitress fault but we simply can t recommend this place and will ABSOLUTELY not return. The manager came over and discounted the meal but didn t offer any sort of way to make a mends for the absolutely terrible food. The place was empty and the music entirely too loud. Never again.

Good service just wasn't what I know "Texas" Bar BQue to be!

Food was very good waitress seemed to be new and took a while. Bathrooms we're clean and so was the restaurant.

Terrible BBQ; had the sampler plate ( I forget how it is labeled on the menu) that came with a sample of all the meats: Food was cold; Brisket was very tough, The St Louis style ribs were awesome, Pork might have been palatable if it had been at least a little warm and a little less fat.

Ate there twice while in town. Had mixed results from excellent service to could use a few clues, so your milage may vary. Just depends on the waiter/waitress.
