Don’t listen to the reviews! This place is a great small quaint hidden gem near SAIT. It gives off a classic hole in the wall New York vibe. The seating area is a definite cozy vibe with a direct view of the Main Street. They don’t play music inside but the sound of the natural sounds from the cars passing by is oddly soothing. It’s a great place to study or to read a book while eating lunch. The restaurant owner is very friendly and the service was very quick. I definitely recommend the baked beans and corn bread. They were sweet and well cooked! They use really tasty cheese and a savoury bbq sauce in their sandwiches as well a pretty good brioche bun. My only comment would be that the meat could be a bit softer for the pulled pork but that could also just be my preference. The pricing is also very reasonable got two meals including drinks and the price came to about $32. The reviews are harsh especially for a place that’s trying to start out. Definitely worth trying if you’re a person that enjoys trying a new restaurant! Way better to try...
Read moreThe first time I tried this place I was so impressed the last 3 times not so much last night I got a beef dip with a poutine I ordered extra beef and cheese on the sandwich and extra cheese on the poutine called the restaurant to confirm they understood the special instructions I was told yes. An hour later my Uber driver shows up no thermal bag food cold I open my order there’s no extra cheese on either dish and the extra meat is on the poutine. When I called the restaurant to bring up my concerns I asked if to speak to the manager no manager available and couldn’t be reached. I asked for the manager to call me when I asked if he had my contact info and the employee refused to answer. I have no problem paying extra for good food but if instructions can’t be followed after being confirmed I have a problem. Not only did the uber eats driver give me cold food the restaurant completely dropped the ball than played stupid and never got back to me. I like a good beef dip but for that price original joes is better bang...
Read moreMy first words about this place is DONT TAKE ANY NEGITIVE REVIEWS ABOUT THIS PLACE WITH DOOR DASH OR UBER EATS, if you're giving this place 1 star because your delivery was cold that isn't this guy's fault at all and you shouldn't be reviewing. Another thing to mention is price, this is a BBQ place, BBQ isn't McDonalds prices if you want McDonalds prices go to McDonalds.
Now onto the review; I went to sait as a student for a few months and I ended coming here for lunch at least twice a week. The brisket is absolutely unreal, so is the pulled pork, but the roast beef I found to be a touch dry on the cheese steak and beef and cheddar but this places brisket is so good, I can easily say this is the best brisket I've had in the city, it's fatty but not gross, it's tender and falls apart but isn't impossible to eat and the seasoning is DAMN GOOD.
I recommend getting a poutine with the brisket for 10 dollars for a regular size, the prices are so good for...
