Had thed magic LocalDines coupon for $50 of what we hoped would be a food delight.
Had reservations for 5:30pm and were seated quickly. Place is nice inside, casual yet modern, My first complaint was the lighting was so dim it was very very hard to read the menu, place needs to turn up the wattage a little.
After reading how great the food was we had to start with the bacon board.. Price has already gone up $3 which seems to be a trend on the majority of the menu, Pulled pork was $8 now $11, brisket now $12 and I think it used to be $10. The real problem was that the food in our opinion was not up par if compared to the prices, The bacon board was served in semi darkness. The waitress explained what each componet was so we would know what we were eating, Overall I liked the various types of bacon, only one type was overcooked, the dipping sauces were great and well as the toast., but the real question was it worth $16, not to us but it was worth a try just to say we've had it, Wife ordered chipped brisket sandwich with coleslaw on it and I order the pulled pork with slaw (my favorite way to eat pulled pork). She enjoyed her sandwich, however mine had no spice, no punch, just grease! Now I enjoy grease but you have to have bbq sauce with it. My pulled pork just lacked flavor, what I get at Pork On A Fork is far superior BBQ overall. Ordered a couple of sides: cole slaw, lacked salt and spice, the roasted asparagus where very thin and nothing special. Both sandwiches were served with thick warm potatoe chips which I nibbled on while waiting for the check. Didn't quite spend al $50 but I had enoughj. My wife wants to return so I may give it the second chance the couple sitting next to us they gave it and were definitely they did, As for me this weekend I'll take my two coupons to Pork On A Fork and eat some down home BBQ.
