Paul & Sandy's Real Barbecue

Posted by Staff / Listed on July 15, 2011 / review policy

Paul and SandysPaul and Sandy's is Etobicoke's answer to fall-off-the-bone ribs and tender BBQ brisket. Their secret is no secret to those who know great barbecue - slow cooking their meat over freshly cut wood (hickory). Paul and Sandy's boasts a 12-hour pork shoulder, a 18-hour beef brisket, along with sides including homemade cornbread, coleslaw, and fries.

Any serious bbq review would know that "fall of the bones" is NOT good bbq.

The best BBQ restaurant in the west-end of Toronto.

Wow. New west end BBQ! Ok meals and price, but some of the worst customer service from wait and floor staff I have ever had. Hopefully they're pull together, find quality people and streamline there kitchen line. So if you decide to give this resturant a try don't expect too much.

We've been going to Paul and Sandy's pretty regularly for a few months now. We all have our favorites. I have the chicken and rib combo which is fantastic. That's Paul in the kitchen, and Sandy is often serving. Big portions, super taste, lots of choices: chicken, pork, brisket, ribs. Mmm. Happy to support local mom and pop places, too.

Fall off the bone is overdone, it has to come off with some resistance to be perfect. Huskylord is correct! Better brush up on your BBQ, good reason to head south on a "FOODIE ROAD TRIP" and try Carolina, Kansas, and Texas just to name a few.

This place is a joke. The owners don't give a damn about their customers and they rarely have anything in stock...surprised they're still open. My first experience there was an empty restaurant full of dirty tables that hadn't been cleared yet...i ordered the bbq platter that supposedly lets you try all their specialties but they didn't have any in stock? their apps are all frozen and deep fried not made fresh...TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT. Save yourself the gas money and find a real place that cares about their customers, makes everything fresh and actually has what they advertise. Don't even think about asking them to substitute anything even if its their fault they don't the original item/items you order because they simply don't care if they're out and don't care to make it right with any substitution. Surprised they're still open, Etobicoke needs to demand more of their local businesses.

I agree with some of the comments on customer service. They can be slow, tables aren't cleared on a timely basis and they have been known to run out of items early on a Saturday. Don't go in on a Saturday at 7:30 pm and expect to get everything on the menu. That being said, Paul and Sandy are good people and they put out a good product. I have tried almost everything there and it's quality BBQ. Sides are good as well.

Every time I take my daughter to the music school across the road from Paul and Sandys I can't help but to go for a walk across the road and order my personal favorite. The beef brisket on a bun, WOW, it is cooked to perfection and just melts in your mouth. Everything here is amazing. Don't miss out, you should definately try Paul and Sandys.

Not bad BBQ, but not perfect. I compare all BBQ to Mueller's in Austin, Texas and most are quite a bit off the mark from it. Barque on Ronci is a bit better, though I am glad this place exists.
