“After years of being nothing, I was so happy to finally see the empty storefront turn into a restaurant with an awesome (and very large) bar! Porkchop is still working through some kinks (the service was slow), but this should be expected with a brand new restaurant. I am fully confident this will get figured out, and most importantly, the food was fantastic! The brisket was especially excellent, and I highly recommend the nachos! Can't wait to check out all of the weekly specials!”
“The service was good. They made sure we didn't need anything. The place was pretty empty, though. The food was just ok. I would not consider this a BBQ Joint, though. The tips seemed boiled and then added hickory or smoke to it. Love tips but this wasn't it for me. The brisket was dry and even with the very tasty sauce, it was still dry. The fries were good. The cole slaw was OK. They did have other stuff going on there so that might be a better reason to come! My Backyard Iced Tea was good. The lemon drop drink was another ok. The owner/manager came by and very nice and welcoming!”
“Ordered from this restaurant on Uber Eats and was sorely disappointed. Both the Rib Tips and Pulled Pork were listed as being 1/2lb portions, and when they arrived, neither were the weight promised- I have a kitchen scale, I weighed the portions that were received and my meal was 6.1 oz. A pound is 16oz. On top of that, both meats were burned beyond being eddible, and more fat and bone than meat. Even my cat who eats EVERYTHING sniffed a piece of meat and wouldn’t eat it! The only reason I am not giving this place a one star review is because the fries are good. I ordered mashed potatoes and what I got was Mac n cheese sauce with potato wedges in it. I am disappointed and will never be ordering from or eating here again.”
“The atmosphere of this place and the music venue is awesome! The food is definitely some of the worst I’ve eaten. This “5 cheese” Mac and cheese was 15 dollars. It used barilla pasta and that crummy amount of meat was 5 of the 15 dollars spent. The sauce was so watery and bland. To be fair, the barilla was cooked well.”
“Went on a Sunday afternoon and they were out of brisket, burnt ends and ribs. Our server told us they were in process of defrosting meat, @ 3pm on a Sunday. 🤯 Had rib tips, pulled pork and sausage. None of them were impressive. The tips were dry and the pork was flavorless. You can tell the meat wasn't smoked. And the sausage was standard Hillshire Farms that you can get from the grocery store. Also had the beans, greens and cornbread. Beans were okay, they tasted like pork-n-beans with meat in them. The greens were dry. As in no liquid. I think they were sautéed. Strange, but their flavor was okay. The cornbread was still cold from being in the refrigerator. I don't think this location actually cooks food on-site. Extremely disappointing. I don't think they will make it through the summer if the quality stays this way.”
