GastroPit-STL — Restaurant in St. Louis

The location(s) on the hill were a regular lunch stop for me before they closed. I was excited to see they were back, but this wasn't it.

I ordered the burnt ends and ribs combo. The ribs were severely overcooked, dry, and gray with no apparent smoke ring. These were probably oven baked. The "Burnt Ends" were decent, although the sauce wasn't caramelized much less burnt. The cornbread was completely inedible except for one bite in the center, which wasn't very good. It was dry and crusty around the entire edge like it was cut 2 days ago.

The guy working the counter was great, very personable, and attentive. The fries were some of the best in town, IMO.

Will kot try to go again.

Wish I could give no stars, sorry. 2nd time here. 1st time I got the turkey panini sandwich which was awful, some sort of pesto sauce on a BBQ sandwich...no Bueno! And the coleslaw which is made with the white BBQ sauce. Again it was awful. Worst cole slaw ever!! 2nd time today. Got a brisket sandwich and potato salad. WAY overpriced! $18 was my total. Lots of fat in my brisket, and potato salad is made with the same white BBQ sauce. Worst and most expensive take out meal ever. Shame! I work across the street, but will NOT...
