| - Dickeys: Home of the micro-tacos, would be a good slogan. I had the street Taco combo, which comes with 4 tacos, a side, and a drink. I got the Mac and Cheese for my side.
The tacos had a disproportionate amount of meat to coleslaw, and the tacos themselves could use about 20% more meat and half of the coleslaw on them. Also, it's a BBQ joint, so even though it's petty, it should go: meat-bbq-slaw; not meat-slaw-bbq. Again, petty, but the BBQ should meet the meat. ;)
The mac and cheese was okay. I mixed it with a half cup of sweet BBQ and it gave it some good zip. My "beef" is that it was soupy and nothing my taste buds will crave.
Overall it was good. For $9.95, I can say that I am certainly stuffed. I'm bias to BBQ, so it's difficult to say that any BBQ is bad unless they are trying to make it bad. However, compared to other BBQ in Arizona, and particularly Phoenix, this one narrowly hurdles the bar. There wasn't any wow to the sauce or the meat. It was just good and was a fair value; if there was more meat.
I did -1 for the meat shortage and the par food, and -2 for extra shitty service. The service was intimidating my first time, and when I asked about the ice cream cones being out, the employee said give me a moment; but then helps every customer in the restaurant until I left. It's apparent you only matter up-to the point you pay, then you can go to... Well... Ya know. Not a satisfying experience.
