Yes, jerk is a form of barbecue. The wings are recommended. Fridays they have oxtail stew. Service is slow, because they do it the right way.

Ribster’s – CLOSED

Ribster’s, web site, 7243 Little River Turnpike, Annandale, VA, 703-750-2751 (Metro Trip Planner – opens in new window) [lunchSpark | openlist | Citysearch | Yelp]

Reasonably good ribs, and good prices too, especially at the weekend lunch specials. Weird and dark, you wonder how it stays in business, but in fact this is the real Annandale. You will feel like you have entered Kansas, or something like that.

Closed (answering the wondering…)
