    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.

    This grub is good! Opting for the gallon tea gives you more bang for your buck, too!

    Okay, so you're at this Food Cart pod, and the number of choices are overwhelming. So many…read moredirections you can go, but you catch your eyes on this Texas BBQ place with a funny name, that sounds like it could be the place. Step right up, you've found a good one. If it's your first time, I would suggest the Brisket sampler plate to taste all the yummy goodness in a single swoop. Four meats, fries and 2 sides...they don't mess around. For me, the Brisket and especially the Pulled Pork were stars, but the Chicken was no slouch either. I went with the Mac & Cheese + Cole Slaw options, and didn't leave a morsel behind, they were so good. Maybe I was hungry that day, or maybe the deliciousness of the meal just made me hungry, but damn, this place is good. Alternative sides that I didn't get to try include: rice, mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, cornbread, and maybe beans. I may be tempted to switch it up next time. Really happy with this find. In my opinion Raining BBQ is the Reigning BBQ!

    Well it's been a few years since my last time here and I must say they have definitely made…read morechanges. The customer service is really nice and friendly , the food is hot and fresh . I hav the combination plate with ribs brisket chicken and shredded beef all wich were delicious and all the sides as well . The beans were a lil lacking if it was up to me I'd add bits of brisket to them with some onions and they would be epic. The Mac and cheese definitely made a complete change from dry boxed to creamy cheesy pull goodness . I'm definitely going to be making a return trip. I hope this helps and thanks for your time.

I decided on a soup and tried their Seafood Jjampong. It was a real disappointment. Bland and flavorless. The ingredients didn't seem fresh. I took it home to try and fix it myself with a little oyster and fish sauce. It did help a little but I wasn't sure if that was supposed to be the traditional flavor. For $25 I was hoping to get something flavorful but it fell short. Avoid this one and save your money trying something else. We also got the ttobokei. Nothing special. Tasted like Chef Boyardee and the sauce was a little spicy. Wasn't too thrilled about this one as well. I think their appetizers are good and I think I'll just stick to these even though the corn dog is 75% cheese, 25% dog. I was also disappointed that japchae is not ontheir menu. Had it been an available item, I would have had that instead of the bland soup.
