williamson brother's bar-b-q  4 Star Rating - Very good

This business has a well-earned reputation for southern ribs and bar-b-q. Once out of the car in the parking lot and your salivary glands will pull you through the rest of the night! Side dishes along with the famous pork or beef bar-b-q or ribs make every meal tast like an upscale tailgate party! Sauces are a little spicy and actually take away from the experience. Early warning on the spice will save a great meal.

Williamson Bros. Bar BBQ  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

The store smelled delicious. I walked in and the place was very small though. The food was great but it was very expensive. There was only like 2 employees obviously working there while I was there. The place was overall enjoyable but not great.

Best BBQ in the State!!! 5 Star Rating - World class

I have traveled all over Georgia and everywhere I go I sample the local BBQ there and I must say with out a shadow of a doubt that Williamson Bro's is the best out there!!! I eaten at both locations and have never been disappointed. If you are a die hard fan of BBQ as I am or just want a sampling of Georgia's bests then you got to give Williamson Bro's a try!

Pros: Best BBQ in the State!!!
Cons: None

IF IT AIN'T PIG IT AIN'T BAR-B-QUE 4 Star Rating - Very good

IF IT AIN'T PIG IT AIN'T BAR-B-QUE.... This is a statement of what is what! The pork is what makes this place great. Smoked and cured with a tasty sauce, stick with the chopped pork! Sliced, chopped, inside, outside or mixed it cannot be beat. Sides of stew, garlic bread, onion rings and baked beans make Williamson Bros one of the BEST in TOWN and THE BEST IN MARIETTA! The deserts are also very good and ample. Great food but don't look too close! There may be some cleanliness issues but they are wise to keep the light low and dark walls........

Pros: Really GOOD BBQ and Deserts...... Great Smells!
Cons: Is it clean?

The best BBQ in Atlanta 5 Star Rating - World class

This is our all time favorite BBQ place in Atlanta. We dont eat at the restaurant much, but we do order a lot of to go food from there. We normally get the pound of pulled pork and a few sides. The pork is always great, and their sauce is amazing. My husband loves their onion rings and baked beans. I enjoy the macaroni and cheese, and chocolate pie. They always offer buns when you order to go, and it makes great leftovers. The ribs are also excellent, and the price is reasonable.

My office has finally caught on to their great BBQ and we often have them cater for us.

Pros: Great BBQ
Cons: They close pretty early

All show no glory.. 2 Star Rating - Wouldn't recommend

When you approach the restaurant it has all the apperances of a great BBQ joint. A rusti looking building with thick smokey aroma coming out of the chimney. As you walk in you see a large pit with juicy smoked pork butt sizzling in the wood burning pit. Unfortunately, thats where the magic ends. When the food comes out the meat is a little dry. I had the combo plate and I couldn't taste any smoke flavor in the meat. The BBQ sauce was o.k. but nothing to write home about. The chicken wasn't BBQ''d but cooked in an electric rotissere that's found in a grocery store. Overall, it was very disappointing. Their grilled steak was good though.

Pros: Steak is a tasty and good value
Cons: BBQ
