Horrible Ribs at MESH Peri-Peri Grill

I’m not a ribs fan. They’re too messy and I don’t like getting my fingers dirty.

On Sunday, I was actually craving for some ribs. My friend and I decided to head over to MESH Peri-Peri Grill in Mississauga. Ribs were on their menu so we decided to give them a try.

We ordered a take-out order of ribs, a baked potato and a side of fries.

We must have waited a good 45 minutes for our order. Once we received our food, we decided to dine in. We were just that hungry.

When we opened our container, we were shocked to find two slabs of meat that looked nothing like ribs. The baked potato was nothing but sliced potatoes in some sort of sauce. We were too hungry to complain so we started eating.

After two bites of their so called ribs, I was ready to talk to anyone that worked there. The ribs had nothing but fat on it and tasted like rubber.

When I finally got a hold of an employee, I told him that we weren’t pleased with our ribs. They looked nothing like the picture they had displayed on their banner outside of their restaurant.  This was false advertising. It was full of fat and tasted horrible.

He apologized and told us they had no control on how the ribs turned out and asked if we would like another order. My response was that we had already waited 45 minutes for our food and weren’t willing to wait again.

He apologized again and took our information. He told us that someone would call and offer us a free meal the next time we were in the area.

Next time? Ha! I think not.

The funny thing is, the table next to us also ordered ribs. There’s actually looked like the ribs posted on the banner outside of the restaurant.

I wondered if this was done on purpose. Maybe they serve a different cut of ribs for customers that dine in and serve the fatty portions for those that order take-out.

After reading some reviews, MESH Peri-Peri Grill is known for their chicken, not their ribs. 

The next time I have a craving for ribs, I’ll make sure to visit a restaurant that specializes in ribs.
