Best BBQ in the city I try to keep this place my hidden secret but they deserve the hype!! Doesn't matter what you order on the menu it's gonna be fire. You can tell they love doing what they do so go and support this small business!! Grab a beef brisket sandwich and go chill on the outdoor picnic tables. Take a visit to the water tower or Cox park right after, or head down the road to the walking bridge. Thank me later

This is a very generous 3 stars. For those who say this is the best BBQ you've ever tasted, you…read moreneed to get out more. First, the place is filthy. There's all of 3 indoor tables and not one was clean. Heaven forbid someone steps out from behind the counter and wipes a table or empties the over flowing trash can. But let's get to the BBQ. Barely smoked. Little seasoning. No bark. Honestly, we couldn't tell the difference between the pulled pork, brisket or chicken. Yes, BBQ should be moist. But ours was served dripping in liquid. The best part of our meal was the green beans. The pork rib was meaty, but again, without any true smoke flavor. The sampler I ordered, with 1/4 pound of brisket, pork and a single rib was way overpriced at $20 without so much as a roll or side. My wife's pulled chicken taco was ok, but she wasn't sure it was chicken in the tortilla. The taco was simply 2 small corn tortillas with a bit of chicken and a speck of Cole slaw as a topping. For $8 we expected something more substantial. Oh, but there's more. Beer &. BBQ go hand in hand. But River Road, which only serves bottled or canned beverages, had a broken cooler. Warm beer. Full price. As there was another huge cooler with plenty of room, we couldn't understand why they didn't move the beer to the working cooler. I pass River Road BBQ several times a week and was hoping it would become a regular stop on my way home. But barely average food with below average value just won't give me a reason to stop again.

The meat was slightly on the fatty side for me but nonetheless still amazing. The coleslaw was out of this world. House made chips are fantastic.

The establishment looked very clean and they do have some outdoor seating. The end.

I decided to give Good Belly Sandwich Shop a try after seeing a TikTok review that made the…read moresandwiches look absolutely massive and incredible. Based on that video, my expectations were pretty high. My wife and I made the trip out there, and I ordered the Reuben while she ordered the Turkey Reuben. The restaurant itself was clean and nice enough, although nothing particularly memorable. Their homemade chips were definitely the highlight of the meal--they were fresh, crispy, and probably the best part of our visit. Unfortunately, everything else fell short of what we were expecting. The Reuben lacked the bold, savory flavor that makes a great Reuben memorable. I was hoping for something that reminded me of the oversized, flavor-packed deli sandwiches you'd find in New York City, but this just wasn't it. In fact, I honestly think the Reuben at Jason's Deli has more flavor and is a better sandwich overall. Service also left something to be desired. While ordering drinks, we asked what they had available since they weren't listed on the main menu. Instead of simply pointing us in the right direction, the employee gestured toward a small drink menu sitting on the counter and made us feel like we should have already known it was there. As first-time customers, that wasn't a great first impression. Another thing that made the experience uncomfortable was an employee who continually walked around the dining room, clearing tables while closely watching people who were still eating. I understand keeping the restaurant clean, but it felt like we were being rushed, and several times it seemed like he was hovering over diners rather than just checking on the dining area. To top it off, I ended up with heartburn shortly after leaving, which didn't help my overall impression of the meal. I really wanted to love this place because the online videos made it look like a hidden gem with giant, authentic deli sandwiches. Unfortunately, my experience didn't live up to the hype. While the homemade chips were excellent, the sandwich, service, and overall atmosphere just didn't justify making another trip. Sadly, this is one place I don't plan on visiting again.

I had the opportunity to try some vegan while in town. The V-Grits truck was parked outside Great…read moreFlood Brewing Company for their first ever vegan fish fry. Let me say I am impressed with the food and options available for selection. I purchased the po'boy and crab mac-n-cheese. I immediately fell in love with the crab mac. The crab cake with crunchy bits were delcious. The mac-n-cheese was smooth and creamy. As for my fish po'boy I love the different flavors of spices with each and every bite. My favorite aspect of this sandwich was the pretzel bun. Crazy huh, with all of the ingredients I was a bit concerned if I would have a soggy bun with my to-go order. There were a few things that you should keep in mind. At they moment they are not equipped for to-go orders. My food was covered in foil. They had clam chowder on the menu and they were covering the bowls with foil. Once I saw that I did not order the clam chowder, really no lids for the bowls. Some people had foil blowing right off their food as they grabbed their orders. Finally, it is hard to track the food truck around town. I have been in town for a few days and it is hard to find them if they do not post on social media.

Now, I know that "vegan" doesn't necessarily equate to "bland and flavorless." But V-GRITS revels in making what should be a carnivorous dish deliciously meat and dairy free. I mean, V-GRITS makes one mean hot brown. This is a dish normally comprised of an open-face turkey sandwich with bacon and a cream-filled Mornay sauce. This is the antithesis of vegan. But, with a little witchcraft and some gastronomic know-how, V-GRITS pulls this off. And this omnivore would eat it any day and put it up against any of the other hot browns in town. Another great dish is the Loaded Mac And Cheese. Be warned: This is some spicy mac, but it's so good. It is a heaping helping of creamy mac and cheese topped with BBQ, "Classy Sassy sauce," parsley, and "bacon." And it's vegan. Crazy, I know. Kristina's truck has definitely made a big impact on the local food truck scene. I also love the story behind how it came about: Kristina chose to use her winnings from "Cutthroat Kitchen" -- she's the first vegan winner, BTW -- to make it happen. Love it! V-GRITS does so much right. I get excited whenever I see its orange truck at events!

Second, I had their breakfast sandwich, which consisted of pulled pork, a fried egg, and some cheese. It was delicious. I thought I knew what melt-in-your-mouth good was when it came to pulled pork, but these folks take it to another level. The pork just dissolves into your mouth. Your teeth pass through the meat with no resistance at all, and all that sweet, salty, porky goodness just floods in. Aah. And then you wash it down with your Ale-8. Bliss.

So anytime we travel west we hope to get our fix. Well we were in Jeffersonville last week on a load and were hype to see one. Here's where it goes off the rails. My husband ordered and the young man taking his order acted like - and heavy on ACTED like - because how tf hard is it to understand "fish and chips?" Then went to the back to snicker with his co-workers about how he couldn't understand what he was saying. And yet - YET MR. CANT COMPREHEND correctly fulfilled the order soooooo explain it to me like I'm 5. I don't know how they get down in Indiana but where I'm from hearing an accent is an opportunity to engage and listen deeply, not a chance to score a cheap laugh with provincial co-workers. The worst part is my husband internalized it when telling the story. "You know how I talk fast? Well..." Nah ain't but so many ways to say fish n chips my friend. I'm soooo SICK of people on THIS stolen land giving Black and brown immigrants crap. And the worst worst part of it?? The cashier was Black.

It was sooo good, that they asked for them again two days later (which is pizza night in my house that says a lot). The patties had great flavor, the meat had a kiss of crisp in the right places. The fries were top notch & perfectly seasoned. I highly recommend you giving them a try. For reference, this is a food truck located next to The Golden Nugget. Seating is 4 nicely built picnic tables and thank goodness for the deck - we came right after a monsoon & the deck saved us all from over-ankle deep puddles.

The service was fast and friendly, the food is made to order fresh so be mindful of that. Inside there's plenty of seating and it look relatively new. The menu is pretty big.

The burger was ok, what you'd expect from a fast food joint. Wings were good and crispy, the sauces were pretty much like Wingstop/bww but with different flavors and spices. My buddy got tenders and the house fried rice. Tenders were just tenders but the house fried rice was a nice surprise, tasted better than expected. Overall this place was a solid stop for food if you're craving some wings and bar type food. Will definitely have to come back and try their other options.

The Sweet Potato fries were excellent although there was nothing to dip them in, and I hated to ask the guy at the counter for ketchup or anything because at the time he was running around getting to-go orders for people The Wings (we chose sriracha) were surprising, the sriracha is a dry rub, not a sauce. They were great though, and were a good size and meaty. Interior is very clean and bright, you would never know this used to be the old La Que. Street parking only so that is a little bit of a challenge. I would come back and try other things, I just dont think I will be choosing a cheesesteak again.
