Da Spot — Restaurant in Tarpon Springs

The gal working the window was so Nice & Friendly and the guy working the Smoker is DA MAN!! That being said, Da Spot is hands down the BEST BBQ Ive had in Florida. And that is Saying A LOT.

Some of the best Ribs I've Ever eaten! Everything we tried was DELICIOUS and our 6 Year old Son also LOVED IT. Says a lot when the kid and the parents both LOVE the mac & Cheese. Quite honestly, this was one of the best Finds ever. And the Prices are FANTASTIC.

I wasn't Compensated for this review even though it sounds like it. I Review a LOT of places and this one was just that good!! Here we Go.

Ribs - 10/10. Your'e not gonna find better. Perfect Smoke Ring, Perfect Doneness Level and PERFECTLY not Dry! These have the perfect Tenderness. Not Sloppy Greasy Over Cooked like many ribs. These had some Meatiness and simply had FLAVOR and CHARACTER! The dude even carves these to perfection! Think ALMOST A Boneless Rib. PERFECTION. So Damn GOOD. These Ribs alone are worth serious Travel Time. We live in North Pasco and I promise we will be making the 35 Drive.

Shrimp Dinner - 10/10 WIFE LOVED The fried Shrimp. Great Seasoning, Tasty, FRESH Shrimp. DELICIOUS. Also, the Fries are 10/10 Also!!

Mac & Cheese - 10/10 for a BBQ Stand, you just wont find better. Our 6 year old Loved it and Mom and Dad LOVED it also. As you'll see in the Photos, lots of that Browned Cheese Goodness that Makes GREAT Mac!!!

Baked Beans - BRO...... Again, I sound like these are my Kids running this place but again, these ALSO the BEST Beans Ive Had. They had this cool almost Jamaican Jerk, Molasses kinda Sweetness to them. We LOVED Them. Not your Typical BBQ add Ketchup and Brown Sugar to a can of Beans Standard B.S.. Like the rest of what we ate, these Beans F*CK. lol

Everything was SO SO GOOD that we had to get a To Go Banana Pudding and some Boiled Peanuts. BOTH Again, the best we've ever had.

We look forward to going back and diving even deeper into their offering. Excited to try the Wings!

If I was to Ding them, The Coleslaw was just Ok, but nothing id get again. Wish they had some BBQ Sauce Assortment. Not that theirs is Bad because it actually was REALLY Good, but i'm a Vinegary or Spicy kinda Sauce Guy. The BBQ sauce however is NOT NEEDED because the food is DELICIOUS!

We will be coming back OFTEN.

Great, Nice, Friendly, AWESOME Folks. Love when good people kick ass like this!!!

10 Out of 10...

The people are wonderful and the food is like nothing else you can get around here. The only issue is that you have to get there before they sell out!! It's SERIOUSLY that good!!!!

The review above was from a year ago!!

We have ordered from them many times, the seafood tray is top tier. Don't get sticker shock, we get AT LEAST 6 meals. You can't get that anywhere else! The portions are generous and the people are delightful. If everyone knew there would be a line wrapped around the building. 🤩

Pulled pork to die for with three sides and a bun if you want to make it a sammich. The rib box doesn't give any justice to how much meat is on them, so the last picture is after my gentle giant of a husband ate his fill and I did too. More than one meal left with two desserts. For the quality you just can't beat it. 🤸‍♀️🙃✌️🫶

EDIT: I just added pictures of the pulled pork dinner and the whole hen dinner. My husband had two GIANT plates and I had a normal sized one. It would be at least four large adult meals. You can't get the quality or the quantity anywhere else for anywhere near this price!! You say you can find this somewhere else...?

Maaannn, quit lying. 🙄😜

Also, PLEASE tip well. The gratuity isn't going to a conglomerate, it is a monetarily gratitude that shows you appreciate the incredible efforts that these beautiful people go through on the daily for us. Always looking forward to our next...

Stopped by Da Spot today for Seafood Saturday so my husband could get some Blue Crabs and my daughter has been craving Crawfish. This is our first time eating here and we will definitely be back. This is a “take away” place however they have tables outside and will bring the food to you (I imagine they do this only if not busy).

They have a side area with tables however, that area was all set up for a wedding so we just sat at the small area right in the front with a few picnic tables. The area was clean and ready for us to stuff our faces.

The food!!! First don’t let the tray of 3 Blue Crabs for $25 stop you from ordering. These are 3-5 HEAFTY crabs on tray full of EVERYTHING…crawfish, muscles, sausage, broccoli, potatoes, hard boiled egg… the list goes on. (I wish I would’ve taken a pic but we were just ready to dig in). My husband a native to the Maryland Blue Crab area was pleasantly impressed and could not eat the side of Pulled pork he bought as he didn’t think the crab was going to be enough. My daughter’s Crawfish were juicy and delicious! I ordered a whole chicken with 3sides (fries, dirty rice, and coleslaw I tried all the side and they were yummy however, I had too much delicious chicken to really eat them.

We are leaving with our belly’s full and leftovers for later.

Looking forward to our next visit as I really want to try the ribs and...
