I work on the South Side and I've been really curious about this place. And I've had a BBQ craving lately. So, despite the poor reviews about the service and food that my coworkers had given me, I decided to try it out. I ordered a BBQ combo of brisket and ribs. It was awful. The brisket was chopped instead of sliced and it was lying in a pile under a quarter rack of ribs. The brisket was dry as a desert with no sauce served at all, not even on the side. And this dried up meat desperately needed sauce. It had no flavor and no spice. Icky! The ribs looks good, but they were served as a quarter rack and the knife I had was just a dinner knife and would not cut through the ribs so I could separate them. They had a little more flavor with some kind of slightly sweet sauce brushed on the outside. But the best I could do was scrape a little meat off the bone. I took the ribs back to work and gave them to the office food scavenger. If figured if he could find a way to cut them apart, more power to him.
The service was actually pretty good. But that's not enough to get me back into this place. I'm sure there's better BBQ somewhere in Pittsburgh.
