“Pit Boss BBQ is a solid spot if you’re craving some good barbecue. The food was flavorful, the portions were good, and the overall experience was enjoyable. The BBQ had a nice smoky flavor, and the sides were pretty good as well.

The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was relaxed and casual. There’s a little room for improvement with a few things, but overall, it was a good meal and I’d definitely come back and try some of the other menu items. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the mood for BBQ!“

“Ate at the Fayetteville location on the week of opening. We were excited to have them so close by, however, we did not have a great experience on opening week. I got 1/4 chicken plate. The chicken was much more bone than meat. Beans were bland. Variety of sauces is disappointing. Most southern BBQ restaurants have brunswick stew, which is a big reason for going there. I live only about a mile from the restaurant, however, I will not likely be going again.“

“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😋😋“

“I have been wanting to try this place for a minute. Today I couldn’t decide what to eat and decided to give them a try. So happy I did. Those smoked wings were chefs kiss! Most times when I get wings I don’t get sides but today I did and that Mac N Cheese was everything I didn’t expect!!! Now typically when I get 2 sides one of them not good but the way I ate those greens! I found my new spot. Unfortunately they didn’t have salmon for me to get for my husband, but I’ll be back!“

“This place is sooo good! Love the fried wings, pork chops, the BEST Mac & cheese, and rib tips. I get the same stuff lol. Just wish there was regular fried chicken thighs 🤗“

“I love eating here however to many young folk work there . That’s all they do is play and use curse words to explain themselves. This not the place for that. When you have a business people comes in to enjoy themselves not to see a circle.“

“I had a great experience here! The food was outstanding fresh, flavorful, and prepared perfectly. Everything I ordered exceeded my expectations. The customer service was just as impressive. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. It's not often you find both amazing food and excellent service in one place, but this restaurant delivered on both. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal and a wonderful dining experience.“

“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.“

“met the the man today and became a fan of his chicken an hour later“

“Stopped by for breakfast on our way to our final destination. The Sprite was not quite Sprite initially, but our waitress promptly and politely replaced our drinks. The steak was excellent, and the food overall was pretty good. Good music and nice atmosphere.“

“I tried out this place for the 1st time today! I had the deluxe burger and my son had the mild wings combo! An Asian couple owns this place I believe! The Asian guy who took my order was super nice, patient and friendly! My burger was good enough to where I’d definitely would give this spot another go! Great customer service goes a long way! Prices were reasonable as well!!“

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

“I had such a wonderful experience at this is it !!!From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and genuinely cared for. The manager was absolutely amazing—friendly, attentive, and truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect.
The atmosphere, service, and overall experience made my visit really special. It’s clear that the team takes pride in creating a memorable experience for their guests. I’ll definitely be coming back and would happily recommend this is it!!! to others! And Shante was absolutely the best!!!“

“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 💞“

“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….😁😁“

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

“On this date 8/31, at 11:55am, the 2 ladies not only greeted my sister and I so friendly, they were professional and all their advise when we asked about the food was so correct, delicious 🤤 we had so much fun and they both were such a pleasure. My sister and I want to so thank you again and continue giving/doing your best“

“The ribs and rib tips are meaty, juicy, and well seasoned! The mac and cheese is creamy and decadent! The greens are smoky and delicious, and the baked beans are sweet and tangy! The chicken is also moist and flavorful! I will be going back on Fridays and Saturdays when the restaurant is open. I also plan on placing a catering order for the Holidays!“
