Tried Red Eye Barbecue with family over the weekend. The Very Friendly Owner enchanted me by…read moreanswering my questions with phrases like "Texas-style rub" and "sweet and smoky with a lot of heart". I ordered the Pork Spare Ribs. For me, the sides, potato salad, corn bread, and coleslaw, were the true stars of my meal. I was surprised again and again by the delicious mix of flavors in each. Seat yourself after ordering. Appeared to be indoor seating only available. Hot Tip #1: Red Eye is a two-man operation. The line accumulates quickly and moves slowly, so if you are undecided, maybe hem and haw while in line. Hot Tip #2: It's ok to bring your own water bottle inside the restaurant, so kudos to those that always have their water bottle in one hand!

Oh yeah! This is…read morethe good stuff! Was going camping at the beach a few weeks ago and didn't want to smoke the ribs in the cold/wet. I had been hearing about Red Eye locally and thought I would give them a try. I ordered in advance - I had heard they sell out fast if you don't put in an advance order. Pick up took longer than seemed reasonable for an advance to go order, but zero complaints about the quality of the food! I got two racks of pork ribs and they were spectacular. The other stuff e saw them putting out looked really good too. I normally smoke my own meats, but it is great to have someone local that does such a good job. Now I have a place I can go to when I don't have time to do it myself. Everyone who tried them loved them- including a friend who was a chef in New Orleans. I think Red Eye are the best thing going around here for real BBQ (by a good measure). If you haven't tried them yet, get over there! You are in for a real treat!

Their specialty is Korean fried chicken served with sides of green apple cold slaw and hokkaido milk bread. Came here yesterday to Cooperage brewery where they were doing a pop up and met Sean. He was very nice and assisted me with my order. I went with the Goddess KBBQ, sweet, tangy with just a little bit of spice. It comes with 3 pieces of chicken, large bread and cold slaw. My fingers were sticky & orange but boy, was the food delicious! Looking forward to seeing more from Second Staff, more pop ups or eventually their own small restaurant.

Gerard's Paella is simply the best of the best…read more I'll admit, I was a little nervous at first when Gerard wasn't able to personally attend our star-studded event. Those concerns disappeared immediately. The gentlemen he sent in his place were absolutely outstanding and exceeded even my very high standards. They were professional, engaging, personable, and clearly took great pride in what they do. They became part of the celebration and our guests absolutely loved them. And then there's the paella, without question the best paella ever. The flavors were incredible, the presentation was beautiful, and it was the highlight of the event for many of our guests. Honestly, I could eat it every day and never get tired of it. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. Gerard and his team delivered far beyond expectations, and I can't wait for the opportunity to work with them again. If you're considering Gerard's Paella for an event, stop looking and book them, you won't be disappointed.

I got to speak to Dawn, the owner, for quite awhile. She is a wonderful person, who really cares about her neighborhood and offering something where people can gather and eat some delicious pie. Speaking of the pies, I tried a savory and a sweet pie. Their chicken pot pie is excellent! It reminded me a lot of my families recipe. This is not a heavy, creamy pot pie. The filling is a wonderful combination of chicken and vegetables with a light, creamy sauce. It's seasoned perfectly and the chunky texture is great. The crust is buttery and flaky. The lemon apple pie is full of apple slices and has a wonderful citrusy pop to it. The crust is the same and perfectly buttery! She set up a lovely sitting area in her driveway. Several neighbors came out in support of the Popup! Please come and check this out on Saturday mornings!

Somewhere along the line yelp reviews for Rocker Oysterfeller in Valley Ford became yelp reviews for Rocker's Roadhouse prompting this update. Ages ago I happily awarded 5-stars to Rocker Oysterfeller but when I came to Rocker's Roadhouse for lunch on a recent Monday afternoon things were decidedly not 5-star. The bar area that one enters first had no patrons despite a table of dirty dishes remaining. When we announced we'd like to stay for lunch we were asked to wait while a table in the dining room was cleared. That's exactly what was cleared: one table in the dining room. There were two other tables of customers in the dining room and now a single clean table. Every other customer-free table in that room was stacked with dirty dishes left by previous customers. This wasn't just unappetizing. It was disgusting and we opted not to stay for lunch. I'm hoping this was some sort of aberrant situation as opposed to standard operating procedure. C'mon Rocker's Roadhouse, get your act together.
