- Opened 1934 — the metro's oldest major barbecue restaurant under continuous family ownership.
Rosedale Bar-B-Q, open since 1934, is widely called the metro's oldest major barbecue restaurant still run by the same family. It started as a neighborhood hot-dog-and-beer stand and grew into a Southwest Boulevard institution. The burnt ends and ribs draw the praise, but the real draw is the history on the plate.
