Top Rated Local® is pleased to announce that Ridge View BBQ is a 2019 award winner for catering companies in West Virginia!

Make your next event one to remember with the help of experts at Ridge View BBQ in Dunbar.

Ridge View BBQ has received more than 1,000 reviews on four verified sites with an average rating of 4.73 stars, earning them an outstanding Rating Score™ of 95.34 and a 2019 Top Rated Local award for ranking among the top five catering companies in all of West Virginia!

Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“I have eaten there several times, and it never disappoints me. The food is absolutely delicious. I usually get the pulled pork sandwich with fries and baked beans. The portions are so large; I always have enough left over for the next day or a midnight snack. [This is] definitely a great place to eat. Try it out if you haven’t already.” – Rebecca A.

Not Your Average Restaurant & Catering Company

Jim Smith, co-owner of Ridge View BBQ, generously gave us a few minutes of his time to tell us about this one-of-a-kind business and its award-winning online reputation.

The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that sets Ridge View BBQ apart from the many other catering companies in West Virginia. Jim simply said:

“We do it right.”

We also wanted to know why they do what they do at Ridge View BBQ and how they work to make the world a better place. Jim shared with us that they give back by participating in community events.

Building Success by Having Standards and Providing Good Service

When we asked Jim about Ridge View BBQ’s secret to such a strong online reputation, she said:

“We actually don’t do anything special. We just maintain a good quality standard and provide good service — that’s it.”

Outside of building the kind of online reputation any business owner would envy, Ridge View BBQ has spread the word about who they are and what they do solely through word of mouth:

“We rely on word of mouth from our customers, and it’s been working great. We’ve had a minimum of 20-percent growth for the past 10 years.”

Clearly, Jim knows a thing or two about growing a business and building an online reputation. Here’s his expert advice for the many other business owners out there:

“Be pro-active. Be yourself online.”


Congratulations to the team at Ridge View BBQ for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Jim, for taking the time to speak with us!
