We went here expecting great things because of the reviews. The sticky rib appetizer was delicious so we anticipated everything... else to be on the same level but we're sorely disappointed. The burnt ends were good not great, the brisket was dry and lackedflavor, and the regular ribs were very tough and difficult to separate from the bone. The beans had good flavor with plenty ofbrisket pieces included just a little too watery for our taste and the Mac and cheese was good but average. The fries were thebest part of our main course. For the price we expected better. The worst of our visit unfortunately was the service. We neversaw our server after she took our order. Another server eventually stopped by and got us refills and cleared our plates but thennothing. We were planning on ordering dessert but got tired of waiting for someone to come by so my husband went and foundsomeone to ask for our check. Read more

Friendly staff. Ok bbq at the best. Ribs are far from ‘falling off the bone’, hot link tasted weird and briskets were... dry. Beans are probably one of the worst I’ve had. Pulled pork and wings were decent. Read more

The food is actually pretty good - but I ordered $30 in meats and NO sauces were included…? Glad I thought to order two extra... for 50 cents each… which both came barely half full. Not a lot of sauce for 3 types of meat. Kind of disappointing for whatshould have been a delicious meal Read more

Great casual spot to enjoy quality southern BBQ. After a mediocre experience with their briskets a while back, I came back to... give them another try. The briskets were still a bit dry, but much better than the ones that I had at the Assembly Row branch.The ribs and the sweet BBQ wings were spectacular, and the overall meat quality at this branch was much better than the ones atthe Assembly Row. So far, my top three meat choices are the cheddar link sausages, barbecue wings, and the ribs, and I wouldhighly recommend getting these if you’re going for the Pit boss. For the sides, everything I tried so far were delicious.Pimento Mac and cheese and the coleslaw are my personal favorites, but regardless of what you get, you’ll be satisfied. Read more

Luisa was our server and she was so lovely! We had Mac n cheese bites at her recommendation and would order again. All our food... was good, but the burnt tips and ribs were especially delicious. Read more

Delicious BBQ food. All of their meats are amazing but the brisket is my favorite. The chicken can be a little dry on occasion... but nothing some delicious sauces can’t help fix ! Read more

As a vegetarian I wasn't expecting much but was astonished by the amazing salad bowl that they have! I have tried both of their... Salad bowls and the cornbread ( one of the best I have had)! Servers are very caring and as a tech enthusiast enjoyed seeing afood serving robot running around ???? ???? Read more
