Reviews for The Smoke Pit in Salisbury, NC
Amazing selection, good prices and great value. Service was great and we were seated quickly. Liquid Smoke drink pairs very... nicely with BBQ and Cherry Lemon Sundrop w Tequila has a kick to it! Read more
I "googled" restaurants in Salisbury near I 85, and chose this one. (Meeting friend halfway for lunch!) I was pleasantly... surprised. The staff was extremely welcoming, and the food was great. By far, one of the best BarBQ restaurants I've tried inthe area (Ft Mill north to Greensboro), so far- been living here a year. It's an hour drive, but not bad, and truly worth iton a casual day. Will return. Read more
First time eating here and wasn't let down. Quick to be seated even though they were busy. Waitress was quick to the table,... friendly and courteous. Our appetizers were out in less than five minutes, hot and delicious. The main meal choices are soundtoo good and unless you know exactly what you want you will take forever. Once ordered the food came quick, very fresh, hot andagain delicious. I had the burnt ends, amazing and the potato salad is great and I'm not even a fan of potato salad. Outstanding time here and definitely will return. Read more
Quick, friendly service. Brisket had great marbling and flavor and stayed super moist. The ribs had a great flavor and weren?t... dripping in a sugary sauce, and I?ve only had better burnt ends at one place. Okra was crispy and fresh, Mac and cheese had justenough cheese, and the sweet potatoes were deelish!! Definitely will be back when I?m in the area for sure! Read more
Let start with the service?. My waiter was great! Her name was Megan and she made us feel like we were at home. She was very... attentive and pleasant, she even spoke pig with my son. Lol. My 3 year old is a very picky eater and both times we have comehere he has been pleased with his food (He ordered the Mac and cheese and pickles). As for my food it was everything I?ve beencraving since my first visit here. The ribs were juicy and flavorful and the Mac and cheese was to die for. (I had to order 2because it was so good). This was the first time I ordered the wings and I was pleasantly surprised by the sweet sauce. It hasthe right amount of sweet and tangy. When it comes to the sweet tea?. Tell you grandmother she has competition because itdefinitely tastes like a family secret passed down from generation to generation. I sampled the banana pudding and even thoughit was good it lacked that homemade texture and taste. Over all I was very satisfied. Read more
We had planned on going for several days. My partner on the job had great things to say about the place. We went in with some... apprehension. To our surprise, that was not necessary. While the lot looked full to capacity. We managed to get a spot andwent in. There was ample seating and an extremely clean restaurant. The wait staff seated us quickly and was very polite. Thefood questions we had were quickly and happily answered by our waitress. Our meals came out hot and fresh. The portions areAMPLE. The flavors are HUGE!! The pricing was not abnormally inflated. We were very happy and had full bellies. Bring yourappetite and leave your cares at the door. We will be returning shortly with friends and family. Read more
Restaurant & parking: very accesible from either side of the road, and plenty of parking (25 spots) in the lot. The inside of... the restaurant is one big open space, which is very convenient to see what table is open and available. Bathrooms were clean andbright. Food: I highly recommend that you under order, because the portions are HUGE! I put together a pick your own meatplatter, and the portion of pulled pork could have easily fed 2/3 people. Now, the food is 100% worth every penny and wait. Thecollard greens are the absolute best tasting greens I have ever had. The Mac and cheese was creamy and served very hot. Thesmoked wing sauce are well worth the $10, and could honestly be a meal in itself. You could taste the seasoning on the smokedwings, unlike other places where you only taste the smoke. They were also crunchy, which I preferred. The pulled pork was verydelicious, soft to continue to pull, tangy enough for a novice eastern NC BBQ eater, and the sauces provided at the table canreally dress the pull pork. 100% would argue this is the best BBQ I have had in NC.
