Red Hot and Blue has excellent barbecue plates, good service, and a fun, festive atmosphere. This particular location is situated in a very crowded and frantic part of Williamsburg. There's no doubt that the fairly long wait cheek-by-jowl with crabby strangers also waiting for a table takes away from the experience. Though I like the food at this local chain, I wouldn't return to this location.

We were surprised by quite a diverse menu, which included not only BBQ items but several fish entrees for non-meat-eaters. I had pulled chicken platter and my husband - catfish sandwich. I stole almost all his fries, they were so delicious! Coleslaw was fresh and BBQ sauce with my chicken was right to my taste (spicy but not hot). There were also 4 different sauces at the table. Kentucky pie was not out of this world but very nicely warm, with a scoop of good quality ice cream.

Our bill for 2 with some cocktails, desert, tax and tip was only 50$. All staff was very friendly and attentive.

My sister, son, and I ate here for lunch last week while on vacation. We had never seen this restaurant before, and were happy to try something new. We really enjoyed the experience. We shared the sampler platter (smoked sausage, cheeses, wings, poppers) for an appetizer, and it was quite good. For lunch, I had the pulled chicken sandwich with slaw, and my sister had the pulled chicken platter. The chicken was juicy and tender, and with the sauces on the table, very yummy! My son had the regular chicken tender platter, which was huge. Six or seven big tenders, with enough fries for four people, no kidding. We will definitely eat here again as soon as we have the chance!

RHB is my favorite restaurant in Williamsburg due to its family atmosphere, menu variety, reasonable prices and most of all the spicy sauces that are available right on your table. I always order the ribs dry and then use the many sauces right on the table for a great meal. Order the sampler platter and take home the leftovers and make another meal or two out of it. This place gets an equal amount of visitors as well as locals, so get ready for some lines on weekends in the summer.
