We've tried the steaks (tender and flavorful), sandwiches (yum! -- the cheesesteak seems packed with flavor and the grilled chicken is tender and juicy), fish and chips (not over-cooked -- lightly battered), and salads (fresh). Save -- if you can -- room for dessert! Everything is great, the portions are generous, and the price is reasonable (a rare find these days). Also, Josh (chef and co-owner) is a deep-fry master. His waffle fries, mozzarella sticks, and mushrooms are over-the-top. Josh sometimes steps out of the kitchen to greet customers and make sure everything is OK. The rest of the staff follow his lead for friendly service. If you get the chance, check out the adjacent, beautiful wine tasting room for Lake Barkley Winery. In addition to tastings from proprietor and builder, Bill, you can pick up some great local wines or some California varieties. Not only did Bill build the tasting room by hand (along with the entire building), he's the vintner who created the local wines from grapes he grew nearby. Get some of his local wine before he runs out of it. The California wines are from a vineyard his relative owns. This really is a family business! The tasting room is gorgeous and could be a great place to rent out for an elegant event. I hear JJ's and Lake Barkley are close to opening a banquet facility upstairs -- can't wait to see that!

The baked potato was great and my son got the green beans that were also delicious. The green beans were the French style type and crisp. Seasoning & temperature were perfect on the Ribeyes. There couldn't be a better cut. The price wasn't any higher than last time and it's worth every penny. I knew when she sat it down and I saw all the juices sitting on top that it would be amazing and it was!!! I wish I'd taken a picture of this honker of a Ribeye. It lives now only in my memories. Go. And go get this ribeye. They have perfected their Ribeye game. In my best Arnold voice "I'll be back". Our service was great. Waitress was super nice. The rolls were a little on the hard side and I didn't care for the strawberry whipped butter but I wasn't there for that anyway. Let me at that steak.

I ordered the chicken fried steak with white gravy, fried okra, "Mac and cheese" and "cornbread" Let's start with what went well! I was greeted and sat rather quickly and my drink order was taken. The food came out super fast and now I know why! My country fried steak was a country fried steak, no more no less! My fried okra was fried okra previously frozen I'm sure. The "Mac and cheese" HAHAHA! Was Kraft and was ice cold( Literally ) Zero flavor, zero seasoning, they didn't even try to dress it up. My " Cornbread? Was a blob of tasteless cornmeal and flour that was so dry and tasteless that I took a bite and spit it in my napkin. NOPE!! Just NOPE... The ambiance was kind of like a middle school cafeteria, just there.

Food and service was very good. Please could use a little upkeep. Overall experience was very good…read more Pancakes were delightful.

She recommended the brisket tacos, which my hubby and i both loved. She also recommended the BBQ ranch dressing that we thought was pretty darn great. My kiddos catfish was a little under cooked. Being that I dont cook catfish, we weren't sure if it was ok to eat. A gentleman came out and looked at it and offered to cook another piece (she'd already eaten one piece).

The restaurant is very clean and has several televisions. Katie did a great job helping me navigate the menu and keeping my Diet Coke filled. I ordered the Brisket Plate with Baked Beans, Cole Slaw, Cheese Grits, and Cornbread. The Brisket was very moist and tender. It had a mild flavor, but the Hot BBQ Sauce helped. All 3 sides were tasty and I'm glad I ordered them. The Corn Bread had a nice texture and flavor, but the piece was a bit small and I would have liked some honey or butter with it. Prices here are fair and the food is good. I'm glad I stopped for lunch.

My wife and I ordered the evening special of Hawaii Chicken along with the fried onion appetizer. Everything was good with the exception of the grilled chicken and the bed pilaf rice. Chicken was over cooked which made it tough and dry. Pilaf was either undercooked or had sat for a while because the rice was hard. Baked potatoes, broccoli and salads were very good. We were told there was only one cook in the kitchen. If so he/she was very busy. At the end of the day, I'm sure everything would have been much better if the kitchen was adequately staffed.

First of all, our waitress, Hannah, was SO nice - she checked on us often, was able to answer our questions, served us as quickly as she was able, AND she worked with me on my unique special request. Second, the atmosphere is so homey. There was Oldies on the radio, the lights weren't too bright, and the smell of the food just made me feel so comfortable. Third, their food was so good - we ordered fried mushrooms and garlic olive oil dipping sauce for our bread as appetizers, my husband ordered pasta, and I had a Sicilian pizza. The bread was soft and fresh, the mushrooms had the most delicious breading, the olive oil was flavorful, and my husband and I were in love with our entrees!! The entree portions are really large, too, so I'm actually really happy we're going to be able to enjoy their food again haha. Lastly, they were extremely courteous when it came to our still working on our food just past close - Hannah even made us feel at ease when she offered us dessert and I'd almost turned her down because it had just turned closing time (their tiramisu is SOOO good, by the way). We're not sure if were going to be in the area ever again, but if we ever come this way again, we're definitely stopping in for a meal. This place deserves all the praise!!

Somethings you need to know about Marion Pit BBQ are: Southern Living magazine did a feature on them. They are primary drive-thru but have benches and tables outside to eat on. They do ribs on Wednesday and Saturday and chicken on Sunday and Thursday. But you are going to want the pulled pork because it was a-ma-zing! It was tender, juicy, and seasoned well. I'm so glad I doubled the meat! There are two sauces - a mild and hot. They remind me a lot of Sonny's Mild and Smokin BBQ sauce except with the made fresh aspect. I would rank the Hot as a 6 or 7 on a heat scale. My sides were potato salad and Mac and cheese. The potato salad is a mustard style and had celery in it. The mac ancl cheese was solid. The one thing I wish they would do would be offer fresh-brewed sweet tea. I remembered Marion currently has a water crisis so maybe brewing sweet tea is out of the question. They do have bottled drinks. The pulled pork and sauce alone make Marion Pit a 5 for me
