| - My experience here was mediocre at best, which was surprising, and disappointing, considering the plethora of good reviews.
My husband and I went in just after 5pm on a Saturday. We got off to a bad start when, after making it to the front of the line to order our food, the cashier tells us to wait so she can put the dreaded "sold out" sign on top of the pulled pork. We'd been planning to order pulled pork, so had to make a last minute change. What BBQ place runs out of pulled pork at 5pm on a Saturday night in the summer? We ended up ordering a half pound of brisket, a half chicken and sides of coleslaw and chilli which ran us roughly $45.
It was a gorgeous day, so we hit the patio. The extra star is for the awesome patio and views, which are pretty spectacular.
Our food came quickly but it wasn't hot. It was lukewarm at best. The brisket was unfortunately dry and we had to slather it in BBQ sauce to make it taste better. The chicken was tender and was the best part of the meal, but didn't knock my socks off or anything. The chilli was flavourless and the coleslaw was fine, but nothing to write home about.
There are so many excellent BBQ places in the City and unfortunately this place didn't stack up for us. I won't be back.
