I don't usually post to much about food but I feel compelled to today. My wife and I decided to try Tastefully Blessed Smokehouse in Springdale and were blown away! The service right off the bat was incredible. Extremely friendly and personable and happy to help with any questions. The building was just your standard storefront but the inside gave a nice vibe. The food was absolutely out of this world! We got a pound of brisket, mac n cheese and for my first time ever collard greens. The brisket was absolutely phenomenal! Extremely tender but not falling apart and seasoned perfectly. The Mac n cheese...no question best I've ever had. And for never having collard greens, I was blown away. Everything I've ever seen with them has been they're great or terrible, and these were great! If you haven't yet do yourself a huge favor and give them a try! read more

I want to preface this by saying I ordered takeout and didn't immediately eat the food when I got home. I ordered online and as I tried to pay, it wouldn't let me I called and it turns out they had ran out of baked beans that were in my cart so I couldn't get them, which is fine. The girl on the phone was really nice and said she could take my order over the phone, but I just continued online and took the baked beans out. I ordered the brisket cheesesteak, half rack of ribs, mac & cheese, greens, cornbread, and potato salad. I didn't eat the brisket sandwich so I don't have an opinion, although it did look really good. The ribs were a little dry, but they were falling off the bone. I personally did not like the mac & cheese. I think there was a cheese in there that I didn't like, however it was creamy and thick . The greens cornbread and potato salad were all delicious. My friend thought the greens were a little salty. I didn't, however he ate all of them. I think the potato salad had really good flavor and the cornbread was sweet and almost too moist. they give you their house barbecue sauce with the meal, which is a dark sweet sauce. I took a Carolina style sauce to go as well as an Alabama sauce just to try my favorite was the house sauce and the Carolina being a close second the Alabama was good however it wasn't really the right sauce with the chosen meat. I just wanted to taste it. The pick up process was super smooth. Everyone was nice and quick and helpful when needed. I wanna go back soon to eat in the restaurant but if you do go, make sure you go early because they ran out of maybe two items just as I was picking up my order. read more

First time visit for my friends and me, and won't be the last. Everything was delicious: brisket was tasty and tender with a nice fat streak, pork burnt ends were beautifully crusted, pulled pork tacos were so so tasty, the cole slaw was a perfect crunchy accompaniment for the meat and not overdressed, the beans were only slightly sweet and partnered with bites of brisket, and the corn bread was almost dessert (but didn't last that long). Take someone to share with! read more

5/5 - Tastefully Blessed Smokehouse Lives Up to the Name I've eaten a lot of BBQ in my life, but this place? Different level. Everything here tastes like it was made with purpose. The kind of slow-smoked, flavor-packed BBQ that makes you sit back mid-bite just to appreciate it. The beef ribs were massive and melt-in-your-mouth tender with that perfect smoky crust and deep bark. We were able to cut through them with a plastic fork and knife with ease, just unreal. The brisket was juicy, flavorful, and sliced like butter. And don't even get me started on the sandwiches. The Prime Brisket Grilled Cheese might be the best thing(sandwich) on the menu. Crispy, buttery bread packed with smoky brisket and melted cheese that oozes with every bite. It's rich, messy in the best way, and worth every calorie. All the sandwiches are elite but this one stood out. Then came the sides, specifically the Mac and Cheese. Calling it mac and cheese almost feels disrespectful, this was Anointed Mac. Creamy, rich, perfectly cheesy, and blessed with that homemade soul that hits you right in the comfort zone. I could've eaten a whole tray of that Mac. The flavors danced on your taste buds and left no question this was the best Mac and cheese I've ever had. The other sides and sauces were on point as well, crispy seasoned fries, delicious buttery cornbread that was truly out of this world, and house-made sauces that actually elevate the meal instead of drowning it. The staff was friendly, the portions were generous, and the whole place just gives off that authentic, small-business pride that you can taste in every bite. If you're anywhere nearby, make the trip, if you're not nearby, still make the trip. Tastefully Blessed isn't just good BBQ it's a full-blown eating experience. read more

I have been to barbecue in Kansas City, Texas, North Carolina, South Carolina, Colorado, Ohio, and places on the way to each of those states while driving and the Tastefully Blessed Smokehouse is by far the best BBQ and has the best sauce I have ever tasted. I wanted to eat the sauce with a spoon because it was THAT good!!!! OMG this is a not to miss place to eat if you are visiting Pittsburgh. They have a sandwich that has a variety of meat on top of a smash burger and it was divine. They sell out so don't wait until the last minute to get your food. The side dishes are amazing too. The baked beans, collard greens, Cole slaw, and corn bread were fantastic.......mmmmm so good. Friendly service with a smile. I'm going back this weekend to take my hubby for Father's Day. read more

Food was solid. An appropriate level of smoke and salt, homemade sauces(I loved them all but the dark bbq). Sides were great. Coleslaw a great call from my cousin to cut the richness of everything else. I wouldn't say this is a date place, unless she's into bbq or you've been dating for over a year but definitely worth checking out. FYI no beer.....which would have been nice. read more

This is easily the best BBQ in Western Pennsylvania, but I will go further and say it is the most flavorful and delicious food in general in Western Pennsylvania. Every meat is smoked to perfection with amazing bark. The sandwiches are all incredible and the smash burgers are equally amazing. I can't say enough for what Jamar does. The best food around. Show this family business some love. read more

The people are friendly and they serve up some exceptional food! It might take a few minutes longer, but it's because they are making your order when you come in....and it's worth the wait. The pork was flavorful and the Mac n Cheese was super creamy read more

Stopped there for dinner around 5 on a Thursday fast prompt service. Had the Springdale smasher with french fries, coleslaw, and mac & cheese. The smoke meat on the burger and the burger itself were phenomenal. The sides were all right. Fries were good mac & cheese and coleslaw Could use some work. My only real complain would be the sauces weren't that great. I expected a little better from a place with such great smoke meats. I'll definitely be back. And Definitely would recommend trying this place read more

This is now my favorite restaurant ever. Hands down the best burger/BBQ/Restaurant in Pittsburgh. I haven't had my dick kicked in like that from food in a long time. We went in at 7:20 at night and thank god they weren't sold out of any of the meats. The cashier, who was also so polite, told us they usually are but since it was Valentine's Day I assume it was a little slower Inside seating was limited but in the summer they have outdoor. The food... I don't even know where to begin. The burgers were without question the best I will ever have for a long time. The bun was buttery, grilled with a nice crisp and able to not fall apart with these monstrous contraptions. The black and yellow was a double smash with brisket, fried onions, cheese and BBQ sauce. That brisket had a beautiful char on the outside and so juicy. The Springdale had every meat. Smash burger with brisket, pulled pork, and sausage. All paired for the perfect glutinous monster The fries weren't extra crispy and a soft inside with a good seasoning The ribs had that beautiful char and fell right off the bone. Nothing needed BBQ sauce. Everything was flowing with the juices I will be returning multiple upon multiple times and telling everyone about this place read more

Best BBQ in the Pittsburgh area, hands down. The brisket was as good as any I've had in Texas, and the pulled pork was just as delicious. Highly recommended! read more

There is a sign outside of this little spot that says 'Best BBQ in Town' and they are not lying! Our daughter who lives in the area took us here for dinner the other night and we were very satisfied! The service was friendly and attentive and our food was delicious. Between the four of us, we tried the brisket tacos, Pulled pork sandwiches and Brisket with sides of Mac and cheese, Fries and coleslaw. My brisket was tender, juicy and flavorful. Best side was easily the fries which ares seasoned perfectly. We ate there and were given extra bbq sauce when requested. They do takeout as well. Would highly recommend this spot. read more

This week was my first time here based on a recommendation and I was so glad that I got to try the barbecue there. The Carolina smash burger was so good. I can't imagine there's anything that could be done to make it any better or more tasteful. The ribs were tender and excellent And the brisket sandwich was top notch. Their sauce is a little more smoky than sweet and I loved it and even the mac & cheese was great. I only wish they were open all week long and that they had a bigger place. read more

Stopped by PA to see the Packers vs Steelers. This is hands down the best BBQ I've ever had. The ribs were incredible. Anyone visiting should come try this place at least once. I know I'll always have to come back every single time I come to Pittsburgh for the rest of my life. Incredible. Incredible food incredible service the place was small but staff incredible and food somehow even better. Don't hesitate, you have to try it ASAP read more

This place was just absolutely amazing. It's such a hidden gem. One of the best BBQ spots in the area, in all of Pittsburgh honestly. Only other place that compares is Big Rigs. They have so many delicious items on the menu, so it was tough to choose. I ordered a variety of items, including the banana pudding, the quesadilla with pulled pork, and the baked beans with brisket. The baked beans were delicious, but a little bit pricey. I thought 12 oz would be a bit more than it actually was, but it was still very tasty. It had a slight hint of cinnamon to it. The beans were well made, well cooked, and had the perfect balance of sweet and savory. The meat pieces were kind of small, and there weren't a ton of them, but I honestly prefer it like that. Some parts were a tad too fatty for me, but still very good. The quesadilla was insanely good. I got it with their ranch, BBQ sauce, and sour cream. The meat was tender and very tasty. Plenty of cheese in there. And, it was grilled to perfection, with a nice balance of all the ingredients. The sauces were all amazing too (sour cream was just sour cream). The ranch was creamy and flavorful, and the BBQ sauce had an interesting and unique taste to it. Almost like honey with a kick. Really good. However, only slight problem was that I didn't receive the banana pudding with my order. Still, everything else was so delicious that I'll let it slide and still give them 5 stars. Try this place out for sure! read more

Customer service is spot on. I'd gotten a half rack of baby back ribs by chance. They were out of the smoked chicken which was my first choice. Consequently, I was offered the ribs in its place although it was more expensive. All I can say is they were the juiciest baby back ribs I've ever eaten! And I've traveled the globe. It took me three days to eat the triple smash burger. Ungodly amount of meat for the price. Definitely a travel channel spot. read more

We ordered our meals for take out. The brisket and turkey breast were delicious; however a little salty for my taste. Our order of ribs were too dry, no one ate them. The bbq sauces weren't too good. We didn't care for the vinegar aftertaste. The service and ambiance were amazing. Everyone was friendly which I find extremely important. read more

Very happy with my decision to stop at this BBQ on a trip that passed Springdale. My daughter and I both had Black and Gold smashers- and loved it. A wonderful cheeseburger that is gloriously enhanced by some awesome brisket. The black sauce looked a bit intimidating but meshed perfectly with this sandwich. The people here were very pleasant with excellent service. Can't wait to come back and try some more of their many meat options. read more

Food and service are always great! Highly recommend the brisket tacos. They cater events too!

Best tasting bbq east of the Mississippi! Stopped while traveling out east and found this restaurant on yelp! The service was great, the team was friendly and very helpful with recommendations! I had ribs, Mac n cheese and collard greens! Best collard greens ever!!!! I originally from the south so I know greens. The ribs feel off the bone and super juicy. My friend smoked turkey sandwich and he said it was so moist and tender. This is a bbq heaven experience!!! The Bbq here is worth getting off the turnpike for an amazing flavorful experience. Note I had to take a picture of the table next to me that had huge sandwiches !! Visit here hungry and leave amazingly full !!! read more

We were so excited to eat at this restaurant. We looked up their hours of operation on their website, drove 20 minutes to arrive and find out they were closed. It's probably best to call before going to be sure they're open. read more

Food was so good!!!!! Service was great and we really enjoyed the space. Will definitely be back

Real Texas style barbecue. My wife and I enjoyed brisket tacos, pulled pork and beans. Mac and cheese too. Burp

The food is excellent although the rub on the ribs was too salty. So appreciated the sweetness of the sauce to help cut it. They were meaty and just fell off the bone. The greens were so smoky. Just wow. read more

One of the best barbecue sandwiches I've had - the brisket was phenomenal and tbh the bun was one of the most memorable parts. Lived up to the hype & will 100% be back read more

Great BBQ! The brisket and wings are outstanding! The service was good as well. Highly recommend!

Absolutely best BBQ. The team at Tastefully Blessed are so friendly and kind. Easy take out and great Mac-n-cheese. Definitely worth the price. read more

The only problem with Tastefully Blessed is that I can't stop in every time I drive by. My wife and I have eaten in twice now and got food to go twice more. Eating in is fine -- there is chalk to write on the walls and a fun vibe. I mostly enjoy BBQ'd meat without sauce and find the good BBQ needs no sauce as the meat speaks for itself. Here, both the brisket and pork alike are superb. They serve a very dark bbq sauce that is differnet from what I've had elsewhere. However, with each repeat visit I find I grow to enjoy it more. Also, I have yet to be there when it is busy, but there is always at least some other customers...just never a crowd. It is a little weird, in fact -- BUT I pray this indicates a slow and steady crowd of loyal customers is building and that they are in this location for the long haul! read more

From their amazing food to their amazing staff! I have been to Tastefully blessed twice now, and each time it has been absolutely delicious. The staff is so friendly and welcoming! I would recommend this place to anyone! read more

Some of the best smoked meats I've ever had. Polite ,friendly, hospitable. Smoked Turkey grilled cheese .

Best Bar B Q in the area. Parking on side and back of restaurant. Very good for wheelchair or walkers. Self serve. But good Lord the smoked meat falls off the bone. We got the Springdale special. 1/2 rack of ribs 1/2# pulled pork 1/2# brisket 1/2# smoked turkey 10 wings 4 sausages and all sides 4 cornbread. $129. Baked beans were perfect. Smoky , sweet and spicy. Cornbread was best I've ever had. This place is amazingly delicious. If you're looking for wings go there. Better than any. Meat was tender and falling off the bone but moist and flavorful. Service was good. Ambience is Ok but take it out. Very generous with the sides of sauce. read more
