| - Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! Hands down the best restaurant experience I've had in Pittsburgh. We made a reservation for Saturday at 8P. We arrived a few minutes early and had to wait, which was fine - we soaked in the exceptionally detailed decode and were loving the back yard BBQ vibe; they definitely nailed it. Even going so far as to purchase the iconic Pittsburgh "DRUGS" sign and placing it at the front of the house.
Once showed to our table, I ordered the Repo Man cocktail and my friend ordered the Chandon Blush wine. I loved the repo man cocktail, tequila & grapefruit are absolutely two of my favorites. And my friend loved the tiny bottle of Chandon she had.
For appetizers we ordered the Deviled Eggs of the Day (chorizo) and the jalapeño corn fitters w/honey butter. Oh man, both were so delicious! And we noticed they gave great sizes for both.
We had a hard time deciding on dinner so really leaned on our waiter to help us out and he was spot on with his suggestions! I love when I ask a waiter their favorites when they actually narrow it down. Our waiter gave us suggestions based on just the two of us present and we ordered exactly what he said: jerky baby back ribs, brisket, Mac & cheese, & the kale salad (and we also got the beans because "pork & beans". Everything was absolutely delicious, the ribs and the kale salad were my favorite but the Mac & cheese was creamy goodness (idk what other people reviewing are complaining about, I didn't order a sharp cheddar quesadilla, I ordered creamy Mac and that's exactly what I got). During the meal we also ordered the one of the red wines, it was the second one listed on the menu, that was pretty good (rated a 3.7 on Vivino but I would go so far as deeming it a 3.9).
For dessert, we split the peanut butter/chocolate Leona ice cream sandwich was amazing - it was a perfect balance of chocolate & peanut butter but was shockingly light. Considering we were both whispering about needing to unbutton our pants at this point, we powered through.
Important to note that we had a great server - their runner was struggling a bit and brought us our left overs in a ripped bag that was soaked on the bottom. We let our server know and he brought us another bag, my friend noticed it was also ripped and just as she discretely showed me the rip, he came back laughing as he had intentionally done it as an April Fools joke - it was great and well timed.
Hands down, this has been my favorite dining experience in Pittsburgh and I'll definitely be back.
