Took a vacay to Arizona recently with the boyfriend for our anniversary. He was craving some BBQ while we were there so we decided to stop at Porkopolis, plus it was restaurant week and decided to take advantage of their 3 course meal menu for $44 a couple! Great deal right!? Well let me tell you...the service was really bad! I mean it was Memorial Day weekend and it was pretty packed and they only had 2 servers throughout the whole restaurant but still no excuses. It took a long time for a server to take our orders and then hand us water. I literally had to flag them down by raising my hand multiple times.
Now onto the food! The food portions was great for $44! For starters we had the Pork Rinds which were good but nothing special. For our main entree, the boyfriend had the 3 meat platter while I had the Big Kahuna Porkloin. My Porkloin was amazing and I finished the whole thing because I'm a fatty! And the boyfriend said his food was good also but he honestly told me that he had better. Which was true! I tasted pieces of his food and I have great love for brisket but when I took a bite of his brisket..it did not leave a good impression in my mouth. Maybe they cook it differently in Arizona but in California where I'm from, the briskets I had over here are moist, tender and easily tear. For dessert, we ended up getting the Sweet Potato Pancake Stack with Vanilla Ice Cream to share and OMG IT WAS THE BOMB! I'm still craving for another stack till this day! Oh and I forgot to mention about their Moonshine Cocktails. I decided to order their Redneck Kool-Aid which brought me back to my childhood days drinking lots of Kool-Aid during the summer, without the Moonshine of course! The drink was refreshing and great for the Arizona heat!
Overall the service sucked but the boyfriend gave a generous tip anyways and the food was ok which in turn I gave 3 stars on this yelp review.
