My wife and I were on our honeymoon and were looking for the best BBQ in Adelaide and was led to Low & Slow through some quick web search. First impressions of this establishment was pretty good. The chill casual atmosphere with American inspired decor provided a relaxing feeling whilst seated inside the restaurant. Menu was cute, handheld (stress-free) and nicely designed. Our experience here got exponentially better when the fantastic waitress (Mao we love you! :D) warmly welcomes you and patiently takes your order (it was our first time here). As we were not big eaters, Mao carefully suggested the right food portions for our dinner. And we were very glad with the portion when the food came. On our tray came a portion each of their beef brisket, smoked pork ribs, tater tots, bread & butter pickles and the collard greens. Food was above delicious and definitely satisfied our massive BBQ cravings. Both vege sides were perfect, especially the collard greens which help to freshen up your palate after every few bites of their wonderful meats. The tater tots were a nice touch to the meal and they were just the right amount of crispiness on the outside and softness on the inside. All these was then chased down with the lager which was nice (ended up having 2 pins). To conclude, Low & Slow provided a comfortable atmosphere, very delicious food and drinks, and last but not the least, your experience here will be elevated by the great fantastic amazing impeccable service rendered by our lovely waitress, Mao! (thanks Mao, we cannot thank you enough for your hospitality!) I hope to be back soon to try their pulled pork shoulder and wash down all that deliciousness with a couple more beers! :) Cheers!

5/5 experience if you want a taste of good bbq foods. The customer service was fast and the food was delicious. My partner and I had the "let us feed you" menu where we paid $42 pp and got 5 meats and 4 side dishes. As there is only 5 meat options available we got the lot, so pulled pork shoulder, beef brisket, hot wings, pork ribs and a double smoked cheese kransky. My favourite was the ribs as it wasn't doused in bbq sauce and I could taste the meat. The accompanied sauces were house made bbq sauce, blue cheese sauce (went superb with the hot wings) and some spicy hot sauce. The sides we had were the bread & butter pickles, Mac and cheese, Texas brisket chilli and collard greens. In hindsight, the pickles and Mac and cheese suited the bbq foods the most but the other side dishes were great but didn't really add to the food. For example, the pickles cut through the grease of the bbq foods and the Mac and cheese cleansed your palate and really suited what's on the plate. The cocktails were also pretty good and the range was excellent considering the size of the store. For those who want to come here I highly recommend booking because it was packed. Overall, my partner and I were stuffed and struggled to finish the tray of goodies, didn't even make it to dessert. So the food serving is awesome here and if you want ribs that taste like ribs and not bbq sauce, this is the place to go.

I was a little worried about going to this place. With a small menu and all meat items. But I have to say this place rocks. Opening at 6pm and everyone at the door. The excitement was building. This place has absolutely nailed it. Excellent food. Excellent service from truly happy people and of course the fabulous food. I would recommend going for the $54- option for each person served with 4 sides. There was so much on the trays it was crazy. The staff were fabulous quick and efficient. Kitchen is open, with no secrets! Impressive. Food is mind blowing. Brisket and pork was fantastic. Never eaten better. So tender and the best flavours. Homemade sauces served on the side, all of them were great. We also loved the corn bread, potato salad,apple slaw and corn cobs. A total winning combination. We would also like to say Thank you to staff for acknowledging the birthday which we were celebrating. Very kind. A total winner. If you haven't been here. Book soon as it was a full house on a Thursday night. I forgot to say that we also had Mississippi Mud cake which was also delicious. Couldn't fault anything. A winning combination. Book as soon as possible 😊🍷🍾. Corkage also reasonable. Please note due to the excitement my photos were taken after we had all served ourselves. Trays are very generous 😊

If you’re searching for a restaurant that offers melt in your mouth, delicious BBQ food, and also offers takeaway, look no further than this amazing American style BBQ restaurant in Port Adelaide. Low & Slow American BBQ are consistent with their quality menu items on offer and don’t disappoint. So far I’ve had from their menu: delicious Hot Wings (minus the blue cheese sauce) Beef Brisket, Pork Ribs, Cheese Kransky, served with various selections from the side menu items: Tater Tots, Mac and Cheese, Potato Salad, Corn Cobs. Their dessert items are delicious and are usually decadent Cheesecakes. My absolute favourite being the Peanut Butter cheesecake (drool) and personally my least favourite being the Oreo cheesecake. Environmental friendly takeaway packaging. No plastic! My biggest wish is that they consider including a delivery option for the Low & Slow Port Adelaide restaurant via one of the delivery apps soon!! Fingers Crossed 🤞😋 Photos are from last nights Takeaway.

Had dinner takeaway from here a few times and it has always been excellent so came in for a sit-in dinner to try the "feed me" for 2 people and it was very very very good! The meat really is very unique in Adelaide, very soft, tender, melts in your mouth, exquisite, totally delicious, tastes as good as it looks. It is very filling as well, two hungry people and we struggled to finish it. You can take a pack home for later so nothing is wasted. They also have their own cakes as well which change from time to time, just ask. The one we had was amazingly delicious, much better than what you can get at most cake shops! If you want to dine-in here bookings are essential, the hours are limited and all the inside dining options are almost always booked. The tables are quite well spaced from each other so we never felt crowded. The restaurant area was very clean and smelled absolutely delicious! Overall a fantastic unique meat-eating extravaganza experience in Port Adelaide!

This place is a Port Adelaide institution and I’ve heard a lot about it, but only went for the first time this week! They’re very popular, make sure you book ahead - we came on a Tuesday night and we only had the option to book a table outside. Luckily they had nice outdoor heaters. TIP!! If it’s your first time just order the banquet option ($60 per person) because you get to a try a little bit of everything. It’s actually really good value for money. You can figure out what you like best and the next time you come you can order those specific meats! Out of the sides we got my favourite was the mac and cheese. We also paid extra to get the gravy, it’s a good texture and consistency which was perfect for dipping everything in. The service was really friendly, informative and patient. I can’t wait to come back. **photos feature the amount of food we received for a banquet of 4x people - very generous!
