Reviews for Hindsight BBQ in Waterbury, CT
Smoked chicken quesadilla was great. Burnt ends cauliflower was really great. The brisket and ribs we?re on the dry side.
The site is fantastic. Lots of nice, shaded, outdoor seating with the option of also eating indoors. The staff were all very... friendly. The downside is the cost. The prices are outrageous. The food doesn?t come with sides, so for 3 entrees, 3 sides, and3 beers plus tip, it ran me about $120. They ?served? our burnt ends in the tray, which would have been acceptable if we all hadour own trays, but everyone?s food came out on one - so that was a huge inconvenience. I was overcharged for drinks but didn?tbother to question it - two $10 beers and a $10 frozen drink came out to $40-something dollars. 2 *small* portions of burntends, a pulled pork sandwich, 1 side of fries, and 2 sides of coleslaw came out to over $70. Having said all of that, everythingwas delicious. I love good BBQ, and I love supporting local businesses, but unfortunately with these prices we will not begoing back. Read more
The food was great and reminded me of the barbecue I had in the south. Prices for bbq are always a little pricier but these are... reasonable. A small little bar outside was nice with lots of picnic tables you still order your food inside. They have a greatbeer selection. Potato salad was my favorite side. Read more
Absolutely amazing, start to finish. From walking in the door, the whole staff was fantastic! This means a lot to me and shows... that they enjoy being there and are well taken care of. Friendly, smiling, helpful - A+ on the staff, truly. Of course the mostimportant thing - the food. We eat A Lot of BBQ and make it a point to find and try local places anywhere we go. We all agreedthat everything we had there was incredible. Wings, ribs, brisket, pulled pork, Mac and cheese, a steak burrito, all the sides.Everything was delicious. Great smoke flavor, bark on the brisket was perfect. Really, we all couldn?t believe we haven?t beenhere before and it?s now for sure in our top 5 bbq spots, and alt the top of that list even. Great job all around Hindsight!We?ll be back!! Read more
So good!! Everything had so much flavor. Waterbury needs more places like this. The outdoor seating area with the games is so... cool. Staff was super friendly and informative as well. I didn?t feel rushed at all and they answered any questions I had. Read more
Easily the best pulled pork sandwich in CT, and quite possibly anywhere. The sticky wings were fantastic; cooked perfect with... tons of flavor. The staff was friendly, and it?s a comfortable and unique setting for this area if the state. Nice beer listtoo with very local options. Read more
Left a review just after they opened a year ago, and said the real tell would be whether they could maintain consistent quality... over time, especially with the universal BBQ measure, brisket. Cut corners or rush it, and the results are sadly obvious. After2-3 more trips over the course of a year, I'm happy to say they are still doing it right! They've got a really nice selectionof local craft brews as well. Read more
Excellent and tasty bbq pulled pork sandwiches. Reminded me of authentic texas bbq. I would recommend. Worth the trip bit check... the menu as it is a little pricey but to be expected with smoked meats. Read more
