Riot BBQ

First time here. I wanted some tender, flavorful BBQ. I was pleasantly surprised. What a hidden gem. I had a hard time deciding on what to get because everyone’s plate looked so delicious. So I got the pork ribs pastor, Texas sausage, brisket, and pork belly with a side of pit beans & black cherry cola. Everything was so tender that all I needed was a fork. My timing was good because there was a minimal line to order however when I left people were lining up; this was on a Sunday at 2:30 pm. So you may have to be a little patient. Cool little rooms to hang out and eat in or just eat in the main area. Friendly staff. Check it out! I’ll be back. I wanted to try one of their deserts next time.

Very delicious bbq. Great ambiance. Plenty of seating especially if it's warm and you can sit on the patio. Sucks theres no combo options or ability to order quarter pounds of food to try a variety without getting ya wallet beat up. All the meats had really great flavor and while none of the sauces blew me away, the meats didn't much. Only side that was lackluster was the Mexican dirty rice. Not much flavor and hard to find any of the referenced brisket or pork in there so just seemed like rice. But other than that great.
