My husband loves bbq, so we’ve tried plenty of places in NOVA. Just as we’d come to the conclusion that we couldn’t get decent bbq here, we visited the Pit Stop. Now we come almost every weekend that we’re in town. The food is amazing, authentic southern-style barbecue that has never disappointed. The cooks, management and owners take care to deliver excellent, quality food. They should be honored. The only downside is that, if you don’t order early on the weekends, they will likely sell out. Otherwise, it can’t be beat.

Almost 30 years I've been enjoying Pit Stop. Always good food, service, family owned and operated, best of all it truly tastes/feels like homemade food.
Food is fresh! Brisket is ready about 5pm. You can call in your order ahead of time because they do sell out!

The food was great, but the meat and the buns were cold!! My husband got just all meat, his meat was cold. Is that just how they serve it? Only first time there! Sides were hot! But disappointed the meat and buns err cold!

Hands down the best BBQ spot you can find. Tried every place within a 50 mile range and everything on the menu slaps. I always get the rib tips with mac and cheese and it never disappoints.
Family owned & operated. Come check it out!

My wife and I are from South Carolina, so finding truly good BBQ in Virginia has been a journey. Today, we finally found our spot. The food was incredibly flavorful without being overly salty, and every dish had that authentic, soulful taste we’ve been missing. On top of that, all of their BBQ sauces are superb, each one adds its own layer of flavor without overpowering the meat.
Tristan delivered exceptional customer service. He patiently answered all of my questions, picked up on my hesitation, and gave honest recommendations that turned out to be exactly right. Every worker we interacted with had a great vibe and was genuinely friendly, which made the experience even better.
The food was so good we ordered extra to take home. This is officially our #1 BBQ spot in the VA area.
My go to bbq spot! Love the brisket and rib tips with greens and sweet potatoes. Amazing service and family friendly atmosphere.

Love the food but our order is never ready when we call ahead. I could say I’m picking it up in an hour and it doesn’t matter. Every time they start cooking our food when my husband and i get there we still have to sit and wait another 20-30 minutes. Please ownership and management let’s tighten up on the pick up orders.

People with no common sense are working here. 6 people are lined up with one cashier and she is answering the phone and taking the order over phone. Never mind 10 people who made an effort to come to their restaurant to eat. Amazing how the place runs!

The staff and food was Excellent . I had the brisket, ribs, baked beans, macaroni and cheese. Ohh couldn’t forget the banana pudding for dessert. My friends raved about the corn bread.
