The service was really good. Everyone was polite and checked in regularly. The place was just what you'd expect. A little area sectioned off from the gas station that offered sit down seating right up where you could see them prepare the food. Buy yourself a beer from the cooler and sit down and enjoy some great bbq.

I text ordered ahead of…read moretime for me and two other coworkers the order was ready when I arrived except one bowl had a different sauce than I ordered but the guy working noticed and made me a new one right away. I would have just taken the original bowl made but I do have a peanut/ nut allergy and it had a sauce with nuts. But he quickly remade a new bowl with the gochubang sauce and even gave me the other bowl for free which was very nice. I ended up giving the bowl to my other coworker who didn't get a bowl and she said it was amazing. I had the gochubang chicken bowl and my two other coworkers got the tritip bowls we all really enjoyed the bowls they were fresh and delicious! Will definitely be back I have no complaints

The flavors are incredible - eating here was like the scene of Ratatouille of flavor explosion. Alan is the owner / operator and he is always quick and gets bowls out even with how busy the truck gets. Only downside is its only open 11a-2p during the week. However this is worth the hype. They also take orders via text for pick up which makes this super easy during lunch.

It was pretty quiet during lunch, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I ordered the salad and it was massive -- easily big enough for two people. The only downside was the beer selection. They were out of quite a few options. Luckily they still had the one I wanted, but another customer gave up the search and settled for a soda. Food and service were excellent overall. Just don't come expecting a fully stocked beer list.

2.5 stars rounded up. I've never thought to stop in Copperopolis on my way to or from Yosemite, but…read morethere's a first time for everything I guess. Popped in after a Yosemite-in-a-day mission for dinner, and it was strange. The shopping center felt like it was some strange faux Disneyland town. Very little things were open, and there's also a hotel? This restaurant and the pizza place seemed to be the most bustling. The restaurant has an enormous door that was easy to open from the outside, a little more difficult to open from the inside. Anyway, enough about the ambiance. We had bikes with us, so they accommodated us outside. Menu was pretty basic: appetizers, salads, sandwiches, pastas, and drinks. Everything looked and sounded delicious to our famished crew, but I think they're banking on starvation. All the food was just okay, mediocre. Nothing was bad, but nothing was amazing either. I got the brisket salad. Brisket ($18) was kinda cold and gummy. The cornbread ($6) was a little tasteless. The honey citrus butter with the cornbread had so much potential but was also a little flavorless. A friend ordered pickle chips and that was probably the tastiest thing we had. Our server rang us all up individually which was great for a group. After tax and tip, it was $30, which hurt for such an unsatisfying meal.

We were in the area for traveling and hadn't ate all day. I say this because almost anything tastes…read moregood when you're that hungry. We drove near a small hut with a sign that read BBQ with a small line of people so we figured it must be good. We turned back and found no more customers, but we asked the caller what was popular, she recommended tri tip and brisket. We ordered combination plates with macaroni and cheese as the side. We asked if the plates came with bread. We asked if the Mac and cheese was homemade. DISAPPOINTED. Both meats were heavily salted, and the brisket had tons of fat. The macaroni and cheese was bright orange with tons of garlic and it tastes like I was biting into a brick of sharp cheddar cheese. The bread was a cold King's Hawaiian roll. We also ordered a hot link on the side that was dried up and hard as a rock. The bbq sauce that came with the plates tastes like bottle sauce. Sadly, we did not attempt to eat the food and threw away $45 worth of food. We don't live in the area so we were not sure and expected more from this little spot. I really wish it had exceeded expectations.

Found this diamond in the rough from Merced to Oakhurst. Passing through Mariposa for business…read morerelated purposes, decided to stop to see what they had to offer and saw this bbq spot. I am very big into bbq and if i see a spot, my tastebuds and appetite get curious. IMO, there is not a lot great bbq, living in the south for some years, i have had my fair share. This place is a great mention for bbq. From flavor to tenderness. I had the ribs, tri-tip and brisket. The tri-tip and brisket was tender and had good pepper flavor but not over powering. The ribs, amazing flavor with just a bit of a snap. Sides: coleslaw and beans. The beans were delicious. The coleslaw, well it's different but good. To each their own and this place was fantastic to me. This would be my go to for bbq if i lived in the area.

We visited on May 28, 2026, during rainy weather, so the patio seating was unfortunately closed…read more Since the ordering area inside is fairly small, we waited outside until there was enough room to enter and placed our order. After ordering, it was a little difficult to find seating because the indoor space is limited when the patio isn't available. Luckily, a table opened up just before our food was ready. We didn't wait for the staff to clean the table because we weren't sure it wouldn't be snatched by others. That said, the food was very good, which is why I still gave it a few stars. Overall, the limited seating and the cleanliness during our visit affected the experience a bit, but the food was fine if you're hungry.

We got the three meat plate with brisket, tri-tip, chicken, mac & cheese, plus salad and the half rack pork rib plate with coleslaw and baked beans. We also got the banana pudding. The meat was really cook and tender. I like that they cut it right in front of you. All the plates come with a bun, butter, and pickles. The mac & cheese was okay and a bit dry. My boyfriend loved the baked beans and said they were the best he has ever had.

Second Visit -- Unfortunately My Last…read more This was my second time eating at The BarBQ Pit, and unfortunately it will probably be my last. Whenever I'm working in cities outside my hometown, I try to support local restaurants. Since I'm in Merced several days a week, I wanted to give this place a second try and see if my first experience might have just been an off day. First Visit (about three months ago): The service was excellent. The waitress was attentive, anticipated what I needed, and checked in regularly. I was seated quickly and everything ran smoothly. I ordered the BBQ sampler so I could try a little bit of everything. The waitress mentioned that the meats are smoked daily, which sounded promising. That said, the food itself was fairly average. Nothing was bad, but nothing stood out either. The hot wings were completely middle-of-the-road. For the price point, the food felt mediocre. Second Visit: This visit unfortunately went worse. I was seated quickly again, but it took about 10 minutes before either of the two waitresses came to take my order. One waitress took my drink order, and later another came over to check on me. When I told her I was ready to order, she said the other waitress would come back to take it. That interaction felt a little strange since she was already there but wouldn't take the order herself. I ordered the hot wings again (same as before, just average) and a French Burger because I was curious what it was. It turned out to be a regular burger patty on a French roll with lettuce, tomato, and pickles. Nothing particularly unique about it besides the bread. Unfortunately, that's where the experience went downhill. On two separate sections of the French roll, there was visible mold. At that point I completely lost my appetite and couldn't finish the meal. I don't know if the French rolls don't get used very often or if the bread turnover is slow, but either way this should have been caught before it reached a customer. Moldy bread should never make it out of the kitchen. To be fair, the waitresses themselves were very polite. Service was slower than I expected, but they were friendly. When I was leaving they even offered me a refill and a cup of iced tea to go, which was a thoughtful gesture. Unfortunately, being served moldy food is something I can't overlook. Because of that, I don't think I'll be returning.
