Market Bar-B-Que
(Restaurants - Barbecue)
1414 Nicollet Ave, Minneapolis  55403 • 612-872-1111
Description: DOWNTOWN. The image of a smiling pig leads the way to this charming downtown barbecue pit. In operation since 1946, Market is just as popular today as it was when the jukebox was new and autographed pictures on the wall were current. Try Market's famous barbecued spareribs – sauce comes on the side, because they trust the quality of the meat and the smoking – and then chase them down with tasty onion rings and a house brew. That's good eating!

I review restaurants locally but eat ribs all over the country. They are average-minus at the Market, and therefore 'way overpriced by 40--50%. I tried all three choices: spare, back, and beef and was disappointed with all three. It's as if the meat buyer went out of his/her way to pick out bones without very much meat on them. The accompanying toast is tasteless and not worth the carbs. The string fries are too thin to cook crispy over tender -- also not worth the carbs. The bbq shrimp, surprise! were excellent, as is the creamy cole slaw. Sevice is friendly and fast. But the prices are murder for the scrawny bones you'll find on your plate. $11.50 for 4 spareribs? Too much!
