We will definitely be back. Yummy and again the staff/owner were delightful.

Having said that the brisket is very good it's tender and flavorful and I enjoyed it very much. I got fried okra as a side and it was solid as well. The sauce is here are typical Carolina and therefore vinegar based. Those are usually not my favorite, but these were pretty good. My only complaint would be that they are a little thin, but it is vinegar based and that's kind of given. The meat stands on its own though and does not need the sauce. The sauce does not distract however and are enjoyable.

"Chain vs boutique"…read more I especially enjoy City Barbecue because it is delicious, unpretentious, easy parking, and the kid's meals are great! On this particular gathering, a group of 10 selected this location. No issues with seating. Similar to other bbq lodges, it's first come first serve and bench(?) moveable seating. Customer service was first rate and terrific! A solid, solid bbq option. I polled my family and other guest and everyone agreed it was absolutely delicious. Opinions: We thought the collards were a bit vinegary/sour (not an issue for me) coleslaw was coleslaw - perhaps a tad bit less sweet than at some establishments. Hush puppies sweet, light, and airy. Ribs: similar to homemade Pulled Pork: solid - delicious Sauces: Eastern NC (swine wine), BBQ, Hot BBQ, many others Overall: a delicious option. While boutique BBQ may offer a slightly more refined (+/-) palate experience (I.e. more smoke / more wood flavor). This may, for price, and/or convenience be everything and more for your particular palette. Family discussions varied regarding boutique bbq brands vs City BBQ (chain). Some stating there was little to no difference and others stating there is a significant difference. Try for yourself! Finally, don't forget to inquire about senior specials. Chain BBQ: 4.1 Boutique BBQ: 4.7 Overall: 4.5 (additional points for customers service).

Horrible. I've eaten at 4 different City Barbecue restaurants & the one on Lake Boone Trail was, by…read morefar, the worst. The pulled pork tasted good but, was full of fat. Also, the greens tasted like someone had dumped an entire shaker of salt in them--totally inedible, even after rinsing them with water. I called the restaurant to let them know about the greens and was on hold for almost 15 minutes. When I finally reached someone he said, "Yeah, sorry 'bout that." I guess that I'll try Mission BBQ or drive to Clayton for some Smithfield Chicken & BBQ. I was really hoping that I'd found a good BBQ place in Raleigh.

The two of us eat at Over the Falls regularly and always enjoy it. I'm honestly surprised I hadn't written a review before. Lunch for two came to $65.80 + tax and tip, and there was more than enough food. I ordered one of my two favorites: the Ahi Tuna Pita (the other favorite is the blue cheese burger). I paired it with a side salad and blue cheese dressing, plus an unsweetened iced tea with lemon. My wife ordered The Barrel, their Philly cheesesteak, with a side of sweet potato fries. We also shared an order of house-made potato skins. It was far too much food, in a good way, and we took plenty home. Service was outstanding and truly a team effort. One moment stood out: when my wife hesitated to ask for sour cream for the potato skins, our server immediately said, "It's just 15 steps, let me get it for you." That small gesture made a big difference. The rest of the team was equally warm, friendly, and attentive. The ambiance works perfectly for us, lively, busy, and welcoming without feeling chaotic. I would be confident ordering virtually anything from the menu. We'll keep coming back.
