“Visiting from Texas and gotta say moist brisket, good ribs, and great sides. Went for lunch going back for dinner! Highly recommend.“

“First time visiting Pit Boss BBQ. I had just been to the airport, got hungry, and decided to stop in for some bbq.

It was definitely satisfying and much better than expected. I ordered the BBQ pork plate and rib tips, along with mac & cheese, collard greens, coleslaw, and cornbread.

The hot BBQ sauce was excellent. It had great flavor and made everything even better. The cornbread was just slightly sweet, which was perfect for me.

They also had live music, but it wasn’t too loud, so it was still easy to talk and feel comfortable. Next time, I’d like to try the wings and brisket.“

“I just got a delivery from smokehouse. This food is 100% the HIP. I ordered the rib dinner and I ate every drop. I actually want some more“

“Fantastic friendly staff and best BBQ in Atlanta. Beer on tap, great mixed drinks, and wonderful atmosphere.“

“While in the area we were looking for a local restaurant and not a big chain. Boy we hit the jackpot with Sonny's. The food was amazing. We all ordered something different and taste tested each. Everything was wonderful. The service was amazing. Everyone was so friendly. Would definitely recommend. If your ever in or near Jonesboro, GA.“

“I could write an article on DAS but I have to keep it brief. I understand how to create irresistible atmospheres, hospitable service and consider myself a foodie as I intermittent fast daily and eat once a day. My meals are important. I have now found not only a place in Atlanta with a fun and inviting ambiance with over the top service but also the absolute best BBQ restaurant in Atlanta, DAS BBQ! Thus far, I have had the BBQ Pork, Ribs, Brisket, Cole Slaw, Potato Salad, Mac N Cheese, Das Corn, Brunswick Stew, and Banana Pudding and IMHO the most important aspect, which is the meat seasoning and the sauces. No offense to my friends in the biz but DAS, hands down, has the best of each of these items! I live on the southside of ATL and gladly will drive for more DAS BBQ. Praying DAS opens on the southside of Atlanta. I will be your biggest raving fan!“

“Was in ATL and came here for food ..absolutely amazing ribs and pulled pork!! Came here a few times as it was opposite the hotel I was staying in.... excellent friendly service too! Coming back to Atlanta in July, will 100% be coming back here for food!! Highly recommend!“

“My friend girl brought me to this restaurant for my birthday. I had the turkey ribs, collards, yams and Mac and cheese and the bread pudding, we even tried the fried green tomato,she had the turkey wings. OH ! My gosh the food was sooo, ( never heard of nor had a turkey ribs) it was so tender and the sauce was point on. I don't mind paying a good piece if the service and food is great. When I left this restaurant I took a picture and posted on Facebook, telling everybody I know about this fabulous time at this place and they got to try it out. The service, and my waiter was a 10 .plus“

“Based on experience, when a business brag on their food, it usually doesn’t measure up. Happy to say, this was not the case with Screen House. The smoked wings and ribs were flavorful. When you don’t need sauce, it’s truly a sign of well seasoned meat. Although the Mac and cheese and greens were not the freshest, they were still tasty and I’ll attribute it to the time of day. I will absolutely add the restaurant to my rotation and look forward to tasting other delicacies.“

“I just LOVE this place!! Great food, friendly people, clean atmosphere, and will definitely come again with family and friends.“

“Wanted to update since my last review. I was at Wyatt's on Friday. Got rib tips and a half slab. Man oh man they were on point. This place is amazing. Thank you for staying in the community. Keep cooking.“

“I don’t get up this way often but when I do I always eat here. Great meat and three, great cornbread and biscuits, friendly service and the price is right. Can’t beat it. I know why they have been here so long.“

“My wife and I and our Boy Scout troop, had the pleasure of meeting the Carrs when they came to support our troop at a pancake fundraiser breakfast. They shared with us their restaurant business and we decided after the breakfast was over, We went to reciprocate. And boy were we glad we did. That was hands-down The best barbecue I’ve ever had in my entire life. Now let’s talk about the sides. I think my wife bought one of every side they had available. And 2 cups of Brunswick stew. All of those items were the best I’ve ever had. I will be back and I recommend you give it a try too.“

“My fav are the rib tips but the lamb, wings, fish, and salmon dinners are delicious too. I come to appreciate the food truck flavor. Must taste and become one with your taste buds. 🍽🎊🎊“

“Had some ribs and chicken last night. nice and tender with good service!! check 'em out!!“

“My husband and I love to find a good Brisket sliced bbq. While on the job my husband had lunch here and came home (an hour away) bragging about how good it was. Naturally, I’ve got to try it…..it is soooo good! I highly recommend it and will be back. Very welcoming and friendly. Our server was excellent and recommended the Alabama White sauce, I haven’t had any this good since I first tried it and fell in love with it. This place is a must try if you’re in the area. Thanks for a delicious experience.“

“The services was great and the food was on point“

“Try it yo self!! Try the ribs!! Tell them Yolanda sent cha!!“

“I’ve been a few times and it’s been great, but this time we went upstairs to explore (and also get happy hour specials), and Alessandro was the best bartender I’ve probably ever had. Incredible service, delicious drinks, perf. Vibe up there is lowkey like hunters cabin speakeasy which was unexpected but we stayed for the service up there!!“

“We celebrated my Grandma's 90th Birthday today here and she LOVED the food!“

“Customer service is great and the food is fresh and deliciously seasoned You get a taste of New Orleans food as well as Atlanta Georgia food 😋 But the combination together will put you to sleep😋😋“

“They know how to toss fries in sauce.
Costs about 1 and a half dollars extra to request for them to toss the fries, but is worth it if you love your fries tossed due to the cheaper prices(it's below 10 dollars, but tossing fires raises the price) compared to elsewhere to get a 6 piece wings combo.
(Btw tossed fries are fries coated in sauce)
Also costs extra to get extra blue cheese, but that's not an issue.
They don't have tea, but they have a menu variety and an atmosphere, so I would recommend this place to the rest of my family members.
The main reason why I put 10-20 dollars as the cost is that the average and anything but the 6 wing combo by itself costs more than 10 dollars but mostly stays below 20.“

“I had to try them out after following on Social Media the food was so tempting that I had to make a detour through Riverdale on my way back from South Carolina to Alabama. Man they didn’t disappoint at all! The best Turkey I ever had in my life!!! I had the turkey knuckles and rice bowl. I will be coming back very soon. Food is 10 of 10!!!“

“Let me start by saying, I have one word and that is SUPERB!!!!!! After a day of errands, Shauni and I were ready to eat. After executing a search on Yelp, I came across GQ BBQ and we decided to pull up. Y’all know I love me some BBQ. Upon arrival, the location was super to find as it sits on the main road. When pulling into the parking lot there is parking on both sides as well as parking in the back. The outside was clean and vibrant. We knew we were in for a treat as we were able to smell the bbq before even getting to the restaurant. Yes, the power of a good aroma to captivate the sense of smell. 😜 Heading inside, the location kept with the vibrant color on the walls as to draw your eyes to the menu. There are ample seating options as well so if you desire to eat in as we did, there is indoor and outdoor seating. Taking some time to review the menu, I decided on the Rib Dinner with Baked Beans, Collards, and I ordered two orders of cornbread as well and decided to not get the white bread that comes with the meal. To note, the cornbread is an extra charge. Once our order was placed, we took a seat and enjoyed the games that were playing on the televisions. As we were engrossed in conversation, before we knew it, our food was ready. I retrieved my plate and headed to my seat. The moment I opened that plate, my entire life smiled. After being enticed by the aromas, I was now overtaken by the visual presentation of this meal. As I opted for the sauce on the side, I was able to see the ribs in their naked state and capture the full fragrance of seasoned pork without the coverings of sauce. Babeeeeeeeeeee, GQ BBQ showed off with this meal. Let’s talk the food: Ribs: well seasoned, tender, meaty, minimal gristle, the right amount of fat for a nice chew, great portion size as the dish comes with ribs and rib tips. The sauce was an added layer of joy. I opted to mix their Gresham blend with the Sweet and my mouth had a full mouthgasm of robust flavors, joy, and excitement. These ribs were the absolute bomb with or without the sauce. Baked Beans: perfectly cooked, well seasoned, fresh. Collards: well doctored, tender,perfect pairing for the ribs. Cornbread: absolute gold status, perfectly sweet, cakey with a light crumble, buttery, golden baked, worth the extra cost. The cornbread is slightly small, so I would suggest getting three. LoL. Overall, GQ BBQ was an amazing experience. The ribs dominate the meal as they should, however, the sides compliment the ribs very well. The entire meal is a 10/10 and I will be back very soon for another order. Though I live nowhere near GQ BBQ, I will make sure to make my am way back a few times a year to have my soul fed and taste buds tantalized.“

“They are always on point but you gotta know how to order….if you don’t like the BIG wings you gotta tell them you want the small wings…then if you don’t like them rubbery..you gotta tell them to fry them hard but not too hard…..

Thank me later….btw…the wings are ALWAYS done in 10 min….😁😁“

“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A Five Star Experience That You Must Try“

“I come here at LEAST 3x a week. The wings are ALWAYS FRESH & FIRE ? ALWAYS!! I will say that I personally never order anything besides the wings only. I may someday try the fried rice. The reason for the 4stars is because my very very very 1st x coming here I tried a gyro ? & wings. The gyro was DISGUSTING & COLD!! However, the wings were GOODT. Which is why i continued to come back for the wings. Now, every time i go i get wings only & they are literally ALWAYS fresh & fire !!! I can’t recommend variety from them at the time but i DO recommend the wings & i recommend u give them a try ??“

“Great place, good vibes and drinks!“

“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A Five Star Experience That You Must Try“

“I stopped by for a rib sandwich, but they were out of ribs. I ended up getting the rib tips, fries, and a tropical punch instead, and I'm glad I did. Everything was delicious. The rib tips were flavorful, the fries were great, and the tropical punch was the perfect addition to the meal. I'll definitely be back again.“

“Everything I had was a 10+ with a large portion. I recommend this food truck for any event. You won’t be disappointed.“

“I’m so happy this place finally opened up!! When I tell you the staff is great and the food is phenomenal!! Great experience for anyone who enjoys Korean BBQ. The added bonus is the hot pot: a pot of your choice of steamy broth in which you add your choice of vegetables, noodles, meats and seafood. Ok that’s enough..come try it yourself 💞“

“Y'all I live right down the street, I've been to the liquor store where this Pit house is stationed many times and never really paid it any attention so when the GPS took me here to fulfill my BBQ craving I was skeptical 😅 but I was shocked to learn this place serves some really good food. Her portion size for her price is unbeatable. She gave me Ms Cleo vibes too😍 lol she was kind to me, I mean she greeted me when I walked up to the window and was swift with my plate. Idk what more you could ask for. I got the large rib tips plate with the 2 sides (mac & collards) & it was only $15. It also came with a slice of bread on top but I immediately grabbed that and munched it down. She does not take card payments but she does have a sign up that gives you the option to apple pay or cash app. Thank you so much ma'am. I got full and couldn't finish it. I will suggest getting the BBQ sauce on the side like I did so you can have other dipping options at home. I also got the banana pudding and it was the jello pudding kind idk if I'm saying that right but it was ok. I will definitely be returning to try the chicken next.“

“The bar is great--good service, neighborhood feel. If you get a table, you order from the bartender & someone will bring the food out. If you need silverware or condiments, etc, either quickly catch the person who drops it off or hunt it down yourself. The wings are ok. Onion rings are heavily battered-- go with the tater tots. Fish & chips are amazing.“

“I had the pleasure of having Doneshia as my server. She was very attentive and took care of my every request in a timely manner. I was very appreciative of her service. I had asked for unseasoned fries, they came out seasoned, She corrected it right away. Sadly the fries that came out were not that great. It actually looked and tasted like they took seasoned fries and put them back in the fryer to remove the seasoning.
It was quite obvious to me that she was there to do a great job and she did. She can’t control how the food comes out. Also, she was not part of the group of servers who made it look they were there for social hour which was incredibly annoying. This group hung out at the hostess station (I sat right in front of it) and made guests in line wait until their conversation was completed before they were acknowledged or they were out in the concourse talking with friends. Doneshia did not engage in that behavior. She was quite professional and did a great job. She definitely deserved the almost 50% tip that I left. I highly recommend Doneshia and will ask for her when I’m back at the Atlanta Airport again.“

“Fantastic food and you a get a real taste of down south cooking. Definitely will be back and use them for catering. Excellent service and food.“

“What are you looking for in BBQ? This spot was it for me. A little shack with the best smoked meats I've had in some time. The BBQ sauce hit perfectly with the seasoning used on the chicken, ribs and chopped pork. The sides complimented the meats just right. Then there is the Peach Cobbler....made me an instant fan, and I usually don't do peach anything, but while in GA I couldn't say no!“
