Hatten leider den Rippchen- und den Burger-Tag verpasst. Haben aber dennoch dort bestellt. Einmal Rippchen und einmal Hot-Dog. Mega leckere, zarte Rippchen und eine sehr eigenwillige aber mega leckere Kreation eines Hot Dogs mit leckeren Pommes zu einem dennoch fairen Preis.

This place was so yummy we decided to stop by again for a second visit on the way to the airport. (We were staying in Anaheim) so it was that good. We were unable to use the online ordering system (glitch with it) or call ahead to order for pickup (no answer, makes sense it's more of an order in person type of place anyways) and the second visit they only had two people working and seemed understaffed, and longer wait times (was fine with me). Definitely recommend checking your order before leaving for pick up orders because they did get one of our sides wrong.. they have great food though and much better than the corn dogs next door. They didn't have an option to add extra meat to the Mac and cheese meal without it costing $6 dollars (and the meal is $10) so I wasn't going to pay $6 for extra meat. Maybe they can add this option.

Surprised to find such amazing BBQ on a pier. The Texas Sausage was incredible. Pulled pork, and mac & cheese all fantastic. We highly recommend it. Kid-friendliness: Kids menu. Wheelchair accessibility: Has a ramp.

After driving 2 hours, paying $30 for parking I was at least expecting good food. Foe one they did not have any ribs and said we had to wait an hour and a half for some. So we got the brisket. They put a lot of sauce however the meat itself was not tender and juicer at all. I will never go here again.

My boyfriend and I were just out cruising around California cause we always like to go drive around and look at new things. It was time for lunch and we were hungry and we saw this barbecue fries it was absolutely amazing is all I can say! The view was great if you wanted to eat outside the atmosphere and the customer service was absolutely wonderful.

Got the Piggy Mac, the pulled pork was great 9/10, and the sauce was good, but the Mac wasn’t cheesy and they needed to either add more cheese or more pork to fix that. I’d eat here again though.
