    Sliced BBQ pork (under Fries), tasty red slaw and baked beans with hush puppies.
    Ron P.

    This place is tired and not really a BBQ restaurant. My co-worker picked Greg's as we were driving back from Cleveland based on a Trip Advisor rating. We pulled into a strip mall and were quickly seated and handed a menu. Greg's menu looks more like diner there is a variety of items and only two choices for BBQ pork (chopped or sliced). I opted for the sliced and my co-worker the chopped. The food comes quickly with a pile of French Fries on the pork (so much that we had to put them on a napkin to eat). The meal also comes with baked beans and NC hush puppies and red or white slaw. The good was the red slaw which had a nice tangy taste with a barbecue sauce vs. mayo and the hush puppies were sweet and tasty. The barbecue, fried and beans were just OK. Food 3 Sub par BBQ, slaw and hush puppies pretty good. I would not return for the food. Atmosphere 2 Worn seats and interior, ready for an overdue make over. Service 3.5 Courteous and prompt, also ready with the southern to go cups for our tea. Price 4 Food quantity is large and price is low, but the food is just Okay....

    Be Ignored and consequently Ignor Been awhile since I've been to Greg's which in the past has been mediocre at best. In terms on Service, it's gone downhill from Mediocre and I can not comment on the quality of the food. Walked in today about 12:30. Not particulary busy at the time. Sign said to seat yourself which I did. Picked up a copy of the local newspaper and while I was reading it, another couple walked in and seated themselves as did another couple a few minutes later. The gentleman from the first couple got up and found a copy of a menu at another table. Finished reading the Stateville Landmark and none of us had been approached by any staff member or the restaurant. Finally I got us and left but stopped at the hostess stand at the front to lodge a complaint but she was too busy making sure a take out was OK that she never even looked at me even though I stood there for a lot more than a couple of second. Walked across the parking lot to a Chinese Buffet and was seated immediately.

    The food and service was average. A large amount of food for the price. The restrooms were dirty. A simple can of paint would make it look much more appealing.

    Forgot the name.. the burger with chili, onions and slaw (and mustard but I requested it without) and a side of onion rings and fries. Yummy

    Never came here before because of her different reviews about it. However I'm glad we ended up coming here today. We were actually going to get Chinese food at the buffet next door but they were having management problems so we came to Greg's. Upon entry we were greeted and sat and even though our waiter took a little bit to get to us she was very kind. My mom had the gyro sandwich and I had the burger with onions chili and slaw on top. My burger meal also came with onion rings and fries, and the presentation of it was awesome. The food was actually really good, the service mediocre, and the atmosphere other cute, down home cooking type of joint. We will definitely be coming back! Really want to try the breakfast. I totally recommend this place.

    Coffee first, then breakfast!

    Good food at a great price. One of the best values in Statesville. It's under new management and you can tell.

    This is literally a hidden gym. Even with the navigator it is hard to find hidden on what looks…read morelike an industrial zone behind several buildings and up a dirt road. It would be easy to miss except for the long lines. There is basically nowhere to eat. Just pick it up, the barbecue is stupendous, the sides awesome and the deserts to die for. It's fresh made and when they run out they run out, only open a few days a week but once you taste it you understand the lines. Not near hardly anything but well worth the trip.

    I asked a friend where I should grab dinner in Statesville on a Friday night and *without…read morehesitation* he directed me to Port A Pit. He explained that I'd be eating in my car and ordering at an outside window and that it might be hard to find but none of things should dissuade anyone. They are only open on Wednesdays and Fridays, as others have noted, so you have to get it while you can. When I pulled in around 5:45 on a Friday night there was a pretty empty parking lot and no line at the window. By the time I had my order in hand there were probably 10 cars in the lot and 4-5 people deep in the order line and the pick-up line. I had seen good comments from my fellow yelpers about the chicken AND the BBQ so I had to go with both. I got the 1/4 chicken (lower) and BBQ plate with mac and cheese and fries. As I paid the server was seemingly surprised and very grateful that I added a tip for them on my card. TIP THESE FOLKS, people. If you love their food, it's one way to show it. Shortly, my food was brought out to me and I returned to my car. First thing I noticed was how HEAVY that to go container was. My plate was loaded up. See picture for evidence. Chicken was hot and had great flavor that went beyond the smoky char of the skin. BBQ was so tender and moist and really didn't need any of the extra sauce they provide (I got the regular but wish I had gone with the spicy). Mac and cheese was creamy. I wanted to touch of extra flavor with the mac. A little hot sauce did the tricky. The fries were wedges and they were crazy good. Perfect texture and great seasoning. You simply must get to Port a Pit. This isn't a secret spot that we should hoard but one we should shout from the mountain tops.
