    Just got back from Dickey's Barbecue Pit at Murrayhill. I used to go here all the time, and the food is usually pretty good. However, the prices have gone up substantially, and I had some concerns about sanitary practices on a previous visit, so it's been a couple of years since I've been there. But I had a coupon, so I thought I would try them again. On today's visit, I ordered 1/2 pound of Chicken ($12.49), 1/2 pound of Pulled Pork ($10.49), 1/2 pound of Jalapeño Kielbasa ($11.49), and a "large" (less than a pint) Mac and Cheese ($7.99). When I got home, the portions seemed pretty small, and I wondered if I had gotten a half pound of each of the meats. Fortunately, I do a lot of mailing and have a postal scale. So, I weighed each of the meats, and they were all well short of a 1/2 lb. I assume most people know that a 1/2 pound is 8 ounces, but at least 2 of the 3 young Dickey's employees were not aware of that fact, so I thought it might need mentioning here. (More on that later). The chicken was 5.7 ounces, the sausage was 6.4 ounces, and the pork was 5.9 ounces. So I called the store. I explained the situation. I mentioned, "You do know a 1/2 pound is 8 ounces, right?" Dustin, the guy who answered the phone, said, "No, it's not. It's 6 ounces." I said, "No - a pound is 16 ounces, a 1/2 pound is 8 ounces." Now, keep in mind that Dustin wasn't the one who sliced the meat. It was a young lady with semi-bleached hair (I didn't get her name.) So I'm assuming that she also thinks a 1/2 pound is six ounces. I'm hoping this was an honest mistake, but I'm not sure it was. It seems odd that at least two of the three employees think a 1/2 pound is 6 ounces. I also tried to reach out to the owners to talk to them before leaving a negative review, but it appears that they now live out of state. The local business has let its business license lapse, and several other Dickey's franchisees have filed for bankruptcy, citing challenges with the franchise model. Combined with my sanitary concerns that I won't get into here (it was about three years ago), I don't think I'll be coming back.

    This is a hard review. The food is blah however the service is good. The staff is attentive, very helpful and was there to answer questions if asked. When we walked in we were politely greeted and had a good conversation with the guy making the sandwiches. Unfortunately, that's where the good stops. The bread on the sandwich is thick and dry. The beat had no flavor at all. I never encountered barbecue that could not have the smoke flavor. The green beans had some spices and were cooked nicely. The red beans were cooked soft however the flavor was in the juices, which means the beans were not slow cooked. Sorry, I will not be back.

    Did a takeout so can't really speak to the dining experience. Southern bbq food was bomb! Brisket, sausage, chicken, sides all full of flavor. Quick service from time we ordered to time we picked up.

    All I gotta say is this: an hour after eating, I'm at the toilet purging my guts out. Big mistake; I'm never eating here again. Update: got lunch here and found plastic wrap in the chili. Disappointed yet again.

    Laughably, criminally small portions.

    The meat was very dry and disappointing. The Mac and cheese was decent as well as the loaded mashed potato casserole.

The service is also a little spotting at times. Most of the employees are nice enough but they seem very busy and do not have a high level of customer service. Food cost was surprising we order a pancake breakfast with eggs and bacon, it was 17 bucks if not more, I searched the menu for a basic breakfast, the least expensive was 14 bucks without a drink, when I included a drink it was 17 bucks, nearly 40 bucks for two of us, this seems very unreasonable. I really do not like going to a fastfood place but I was really taken back from the pricing. My son loved his pancakes, I had two eggs, two sausages and hash brown, the first hash browns were nuked, hard, I had to ask for a much less overcooked set, they happily took my plate to replace the hashbrowns, about 10 min later the waitress stopped by to check on our table and I asked if she could see if she would check on the hashbrowns and if they were not able to accommodate the request to cancel my order, my son was nearly done with this meal. Thankfully the waitress brought my food to me, it look like it had been sitting for a while, the eggs were cold as well as the sausages. I learned my lesson, I will not be back to support this business. I hope they are successful, they have many locations in the area, I will be supporting other local breakfast spots going forward.
