    Came back here around the fall, for my birthday but forgot to share my experience. We had a pretty…read moregood size group but the service was excellent. Most of my family had never been here but the staff was patient and helpful with the orders. I shared fried chicken with my wife, and ordered the meat combo fried rice. The picture I took didn't do the meal justice. It was very flavorful and the right amount. My kids loved the amount of options they had to choose from which is always a plus for me. We will definitely return some day.

I understand restaurants get busy, and I'm usually pretty patient, but the service just wasn't there. We waited nearly 30 minutes just to get a refill on our water, and throughout the meal it felt like we were being brushed off. Whether it was intentional or not, it honestly made us feel unwelcome. What really left a bad impression was the automatic gratuity added to the bill. I don't mind tipping for good service--in fact, I usually tip well--but when the service falls short and the gratuity is already included, it doesn't sit right with me. Had the service matched the prices, I would've gladly left a great review and an even better tip. The food was decent, but unfortunately the overall experience was overshadowed by the service. Since we were only visiting, we won't be returning, and based on our experience, I can't recommend this place.

    Awesome! Couldn't have enjoyed our visit to Crockett's any more…read more We stopped in on a Saturday for lunch. It was relatively busy, but our server was great! The fried zucchini were prepared in a manner that we haven't seen before - long, flat pieces. Excellent! My wife had the Sloppy Joe - and she couldn't have been more pleased. Seasoned to perfection. I opted for a Wedge Salad, which was another item prepared in a way I hadn't seen before either - it wasn't a big rock-like salad, it was sliced and laid sideways. Perfect. and with lots of bacon! We'll definitely be back to Crockett's! (We'll just have to find a reason to go to Puyallup.)

Our server was super sweet and friendly! She was so easy to talk to, and I really enjoyed chatting with her throughout our meal. I ordered the cavatappi ragu, and the flavor was really good. Unfortunately, it was a little too salty for me, so I could only eat a couple of bites. My husband helped me finish a few more bites, and I ended up taking the rest home. The portion was huge, so I mixed it with some extra pasta and a little water when I reheated it, and it tasted much better! My husband ordered the burger and really enjoyed it. He had no complaints and finished his entire meal! The portions are definitely generous and could easily be enough for two people, especially if you're not big eaters. Overall, the service was a highlight, and we had a nice, relaxed Sunday night dinner.

Before I came, I looked at the reviews and there seems to be a lot of different mixed messages. For one if you're a regular customer and come in often, the employees seem to treat you much better, and when it comes to food they seem to have the better pick of food from the kitchen. As I read through one review they frequently come, they said that they are definitely changes in the service and the quality of food just within the last year or two. Given more history, I did hear that after Covid the restaurant lost certain companies that they used to get their food from which could explain the downgrade in the quality. I only took one picture because in all honesty it really wasn't worth me taking others and I don't understand why a side salad literally a third of the plate was eight dollars. The cucumbers had gone bad and some of the lettuce had even been wilted. The salad definitely was not worth eight dollars. I have had side salads with fresh ingredients for the same price at a dive bar and this is supposed to be a very well-known kind of upscale barbecue place that's in a well-known community that supports their business. The server was also mediocre and I honestly don't believe it would've been better but we were with a well-known customer, the employees seem to be a little bit more friendly, but definitely did not go out of way to make sure my meals were good. The macaroni and cheese taste very bland. There was not a whole lot of seasoning to it. Some of my brisket was dry and some of it was cold so that makes me wonder how long it's been sitting. The brisket was also kind of a seasoned, but not very well. The Tri-tip also was dry which I don't recommend getting. I did enjoy the baked beans and potato salad, but be aware because some cups of beans have mainly onions and bell pepper with barely any beans and some of the cups have no onions and peppers with just all beans. I have had a lot of barbecue in this state being a native of Kansas City and relatives from Texas. I know what good food is especially barbecue! I guess for this area it's one of the better places to go. The only other location that's nearby is Jack's barbecue which is their specialty is beef ribs, but they put literally pepper in everything so there's no flavor at all except for spicy!!!! At least at this restaurant, I'm not drinking a gallon of water because everything is so spicy like at Jack's but that's for another review. Thank you again for your support and following my review's. Has always be safe out there and I'll see you at my next bite!

I paid $23 for the brisket sandwich with 2 sides (fries and coleslaw for me). It was a huge disappointment. The brisket was dry, the portion size was weak, the sides were mediocre, and the flavor was average. Not sure what I expected based off the location, but I was hoping I would at least get my money's worth. I much prefer Dickey's which offers the same meal around $17. Better brisket and fresher sides. All in all, would not recommend unless you have no other option.

The owner was chatty and treated customers warmly. I was a little unsure of what to choose, because it all looked good, and the smoker was cranking out DELICIOUS SMELLS.... but he recommended the beef ribs. I picked the pasta salad and coleslaw for sides. The ribs were tender, but not falling apart mushy. Good mouthfeel. The smoke was perfect. NO LIquid Smoke yuckiness (IDK where some of these reviewers are used to eating to claim he's using that nasty stuff...) The saltiness was nice. Not AHA recommended sodium intake for cardiac health, but very tasty. The pasta salad was al dente shells with a flavorful blend of mustard, mayo, egg yolks, and seasoning. Quite good! The slaw was fine. I'd have preferred a bit of red onion to liven it up a bit more, but that's just my taste. The sauce was nicely balanced with the sweet, salty, savory, tangy. I hope they'll consider adding a spicy option! Servings were plenty for me to have lunch, and hubby and I to have a full dinner on one plate. Will absolutely go again!
