4 Rivers Smokehouse Kissimmee was the twelfth 4 Rivers Smokehouse location making it the closest to Disney World, SeaWorld, and Universal Studios, offering the Best BBQ Orlando has to offer to BBQ lovers visiting from around the world (También Hablamos Español). It’s also a short drive away from Walt Disney World Resorts, Gaylord Palms Resort and Convention Center, Gatorland, and The LOOP-Kissimmee.
For the best BBQ near the theme parks visit 874 W Osceola Pkwy. Kissimmee FL 34741.
4 Rivers Smokehouse has grown but remains a family-owned business specializing in slow-smoked barbecue, home-style sides, and fresh bakery items, in a family-friendly casual dining environment.
I have been eating lunch at the 4 Rivers Kissimmee location once or twice a week for the last two years. The staff is exceptionally friendly and the food is consistently good (although I can't speak to food beyond my two go-to lunch orders) and they are gracious when asked for something beyond the norm (like my extra extra crispy okra). I haven't visited the other 4 Rivers locations, but I would (and do) recommend this location to everyone who asks.

So impressed with this place! The Cuban sandwich is phenomenal and the bread pudding is to die for! We also enjoyed the brisket, pulled pork, COOP chicken tenders (hand breaded). And the pumpkin spice BBQ sauce is mind-blowing. Chef's kiss! The staff was friendly and helpful. The place is clean. The business gives to charity. There is a hand washing station in the back of the dining room to make it easy to clean your hands before your meal and afterwards. I took a caramel dolly home and it was fabulous, too!

4 Rivers really fell off. The people at the counter were straight up rude zero customer service. I asked for lean brisket, and somehow that turned into an upcharge they never mentioned. All they asked was what kind of meat do you want?
Then I get this sad little portion that cost almost $20 no drink, no sides, nothing. Very overpriced and poor customer service.

I walked in and immediately got nasty looks from the two girls at the front, like I didn’t belong there. Then, when I ordered, they overcharged me for something that every other 4 Rivers includes without a problem. The attitude, the service, and the complete lack of respect were unbelievable. I’m beyond disappointed, this location is a joke, and I’m never coming back.

Visiting from out of state. Typical BBQ place, order when you walk in, pick meat then sides/dessert. I ordered the pulled pork melt. I added mayo and BBQ sauce, it was good and would order it again. Husband and 2 teen boys had ribs and brisket. I tried the ribs, they were okay. Boys said ribs were pretty good. Husband said ribs were alright. Mac and Chz was very good and cheesy potato casserole was excellent!
