I've been to more of Tennessee than actual Tennesseans, and eaten BBQ in every corner of it. This is hands-down THE best BBQ spot in the entire state of Tennessee. Unquestionably. It is an absolute tragedy that Leonard's is only open for lunch, but when you're this good... people work their schedule around yours. The dry-rub is superb, beans are excellent, solid potato salad, amazing service, the spaghetti side is as good as you could possibly hope for at a good BBQ restaurant. I've gotten ribs all over Tennessee and Memphis especially, and the second-best in my opinion is Corky's. Corky's is good, but \second place in Memphis\ is miles behind first place in this case. If we're being super picky, I could say that Leonard's slaw and sweet tea could be improved by following central NC recipes (more sugar, stronger leaves for the tea, and a bit less vinegar and a lot more mayonnaise in the slaw, for starters), but that's only because everything else in the restaurant was dang near PERFECT. Their tea and slaw is really good, but anything compared to perfect is going to appear to fall short. You come here for the BBQ, not the sides, anyway. If you're going to get BBQ anywhere in Tennessee, you're missing out if you don't come to Leonard's. WOW.

Absolutely love Leonard's Pit Barbecue!!! My favorite some of my favorite Ribs, Catfish, and Baked Beans in Memphis!!! My favorite Barbecue Bologna, Onion Rings, and Cole Slaw and my favorite buffet in Memphis!!!
Been eating here for 40 years. This is ALWAYS our go to place for BBQ. Best in the area! We drive from Collierville to eat here. You will love everything!!
I just moved here from Minnesota. Heard about this place from a tv show, and wanted to check it out. Ordered some food to go, the customer service was great. The food was tremendous. In my time here I’ve tried out a ton of bbq, as there is no shortage of places. This is hands down the best so far and I will be back. Thank you!
I've been wanting to go here since reading about it in Steven Raichlen's BBQ book. The place did not dissapoint. The food was amazing. The buffet is insanely huge and the price is great. I'm so glad we stopped before heading to the zoo.
