    Very good BBQ indeed -- impressive for a locale with no discernible Southern population.

    Redbones is a good place to go for the food, but count on it being loud; my hearing makes it difficult to participate in a multi-way conversation here. However, the Beer Roulette wheel pretty much makes up for this; if you're in the upstairs bar and can't decide what to drink, the staff will spin the wheel for you. The results are almost always good.

    As a transplanted Southerner, I have a bit of a different take on Redbones than Noah and Parker. The BBQ is passable but not great. Both Blue Ribbon in Arlington and Newton and Uncle Pete's in Revere do a better job with BBQ. Also, Redbones doesn't seem to do a good job with their other Southern dishes -- I was disappointed with their country fried steak, and they've also served me an oyster po-boy on a New England-style hot dog bun instead of the traditional French baguette.

    However, as a beer geek, I find Redbones to be a fantastic place for beer, one of the 3 or 4 best places in Boston. Their selection is great, with frequently rotating taps and bartenders who know what they are serving. If you don't know what to get, you can spin the wheel of beer and leave it to chance. Beer prices are also very reasonable, noticeably cheaper than other beer-focused restaurants in Boston.

    Note to the vegetarians: even though it is a BBQ place, you can find something to eat there, too. They have a veggie burger, a portobello sandwich and mac 'n cheese. And of course, a great beer selection!
