Decent BBQ joint on North end of town…read more.. Dropped by Lucille's for the first time on Friday for a work lunch with the crew... Been meaning/wanting to try for a while, but have never got around to it. Ok experience, but there's some areas of attention needed. Pros: Friendly/quick service, outstanding brisket, excellent bbq sauces (I particularly liked the vinegar and spicy sauces), and large portions. Cons: Over-priced, average at best sides, extremely smoky in dining room, and dirty/run down restaurant. Overall our experience was good, but the smoke in the dining room was a real problem that actually had my eyes burning/watering while we were eating (it literally looked like an AARP Club Catholic Church bingo event, it was that smoky inside the restaurant), the food is stupid expensive ($35 lunch, one person), and the sides just weren't good (bland coleslaw and broccoli salad). The restaurant also needs a facelift and desperate deep clean... It had that dirty, grimy, sticky feel on the floors and tables (presumably from all the smoke in the dining room). I still consider Shigs n' Pit to be the far and wide the best BBQ in town, but Lucille's has the potential to be really good if they can make some adjustments, improvements, and clean the place up.

Had the chance to eat at Shigs In Pit while in Fort Wayne, and it was a solid BBQ stop. I ordered…read morethe wings with half Shigs seasoning and half white sauce. The wings were cooked perfectly, juicy, and packed with flavor. The seasoning had a great balance of spices, and the white sauce paired nicely without overpowering the wings. My wife ordered the two-meat plate with smoked turkey, pulled pork, apple pie baked beans, and the green chili mac and cheese. The apple pie baked beans were tasty, and the green chili mac and cheese had just enough kick to complement the BBQ. The smoked turkey was a little dry, and the pulled pork was slightly over-seasoned for our taste, but both were still enjoyable. The wings stole the show, and the sides definitely pulled their weight. A couple of small misses kept it from being a five-star meal, but the outstanding service and welcoming atmosphere made up for a lot. If you're in Fort Wayne and craving BBQ, Shigs In Pit is absolutely worth adding to your list.

Food was OK. Service was good. All was a positive experience until I received the bill. Only a…read moretotal, not itemized. The BIG issue was the ADMIN fee added to the bill. I was totally surprised by this totally unwarranted addition to the bill. Some restaurants have adapted and additional surcharge due to the service fee added by credit card companies. It is a surcharge every restaurant has paid for decades every time a credit card is used which the restaurant builds into their prices. Now they are gouging us by adding the surcharge to our bill with no explanation. Even if you pay cash or use a debit card ( which has no additional charge ) they still charge you more. I will not return to this restaurant again. Greed seems to affect some owners. IF they would disclose this BEFORE ordering, it would give you a choice to stay or go somewhere else. Unfortunately this may affect tops in the future even hough the server has nothing to do with this greed. But if the servers don't make tips, the owners may revisit the decision.

They push a 'chicken basket,' but nowhere do they describe what a 'chicken basket' is. The 'cod' in the 'cod sandwich' is tasteless. The chicken breading is rock hard and surprisingly, peppery. The root beer float was very disappointing. I don't think they use Dad's, or Hires, or Barq's or A&W root beer. Bottom line: I was very disappointed. We don't need Culver's in my home state of Nevada. There a lots of employees running around, but the Oder taking and fulfillment processes are no efficient. At 7 PM, there was a line inside the store and only one employee working the counter and he was frazzled.

The staff seemed overwhelmed. They were out of ribs and did not have their signature loaded potatoes available. Not sure how that happens at a barbecue establishment.

I may give it another shot if I'm in this area, but this experience was not the best. They were also out of fountain soda so all they had were can sodas.

They have specials everyday and it's the cleanest restaurant you'll come across in the area. *Tip: if you want ribs or brisket, get here EARLY!!!!!! They sell out so fast. Their giant loaded chicken baked potato special is my favorite thing so far with literally everything on it and their Alabama White Sauce is amazing. The best part about Calli's is the owner. He is as real as they come and he loves his community. He raises money for veterans and other causes that mean somethin to him or the community. He supports other local businesses and gives them shoutouts whenever he goes to them and is just a genuinely nice guy. He loves his business and genuinely wants everyone to love their experience at his restaurant. The ribs are aren't what I expected. They are good, but I expected them to be more fall off the bone? I'm not a rib expert and haven't had them in years so try them for yourself. I think on Friday's he runs a rib special. I haven't been able to try the brisket yet tho because they never have any left when I come so it must be good lol.

I was a little nervous coming here given the reviews that I read, but I was pleasantly surprised…read more It was a Monday night at around seven and there really was only two other families getting food. The cashier was super friendly and I asked him about the 5.55 deal and he told me it's not something that that's listed, but you can order in person. It's a great deal in this economy as it gets you a cheeseburger, drink, and fries. It did take a little bit to get my food. However, I was pleasantly surprised. The fries were cooked fresh and reminded you of McDonald's fries but a little bit better. The burger itself surprisingly was large and the bun was better than McDonald's or Burger King. The only thing off was that there was this odd oil smell coming from the patty. I don't know if it's how they cooked it or old oil. It was not present in the fries, though. Based on this experience, I would give it a four star for the deal as well as the food that you got.
