YUM!!! I had Pit and Pastry for lunch today and it was fantastic. Amazing deal, huge portions and…read moreeven bigger flavor. By FAR the best BBQ around - significantly better than anything I've had in the cville area. As far as I know, they are at the cville city market every Saturday, so you'll have to be ok grabbing and going or eating outside at one of the standing tables. The portion sizes are MASSIVE! We got a platter which comes with a choice of either shredded chicken or pork (or you can split 50/50 like we did) with two sides (Mac and cheese, pesto potatos, cucumber salad) and a cookie (hence, the "pastry"). They had samplers of the meat and I tried the pork and knew I was going to love it. I was shocked at how much food it was - the platter itself was $15 with tax and tip it came out to about $18. The platter fed two HUNGRY adults and there was leftovers!! We were shocked at how much food it was. The meat was perfectly done, tender juicy and smoky. Super flavorful. The Mac and cheese wasn't my favorite, it's baked - don't get me wrong, for a baked Mac and cheese this one is actually really good, but it has the same issue most baked macs do - once it sits for awhile, it becomes pasta in grease with cheese on top. It was fine, more flavorful than others I've had around here, but could use a little more sauce. The pesto potatos were AMAZING. Literally so good. The people that work here are super nice and know what they're doing. They grill the meat in front of you too so it smells amazing. Already looking forward to being back. Do yourself a favor and stop by their stall at the cville city market on Saturdays. You won't be disappointed!!

Shout out to John M the Cville CM who let me know that they were going to take care me on our return trip which also include some bread pudding and chorizo fries. Definitely enjoying my adventures while in town.

Absolutely the best sliders I have had from a truck. The Spicy Whiskey Beef sliders would have…read moreimpressed at any fine dining restaurant and would have been a step up from most of the specialty burger chains that are so popular. Unlike other burger trucks that I have tried, MWO took into account not only the presentation & appearance, but also the temperature & taste as well as the texture & flavor balance. That is nearly impossible to find. The french fries did not look special, but they were cooked just right, also with the right temperature and just the right amount of seasoning. I would have gone back for more if they were not closing up. I hope to return soon! Long story short, if I were Goldilocks, Mouth Wide Open's Sliders are Baby Bear's. Hmmm...now where can I find Baby Bear's cozy bed to nap in? :-)

I had them cater a lunch for a corporate event a little while ago and it was a total success. The food was absolutely fantastic. Their catering prices are also really reasonable and they have plenty of options for accommodating different dietary needs. If you're looking for something other than the usual boring "sandwich salad" catering menu for an event, definitely check Pearl island out. It's super flavorful and delicious and has plenty of options for folks who are looking for something more interesting than a boring corporate lunch, but still has plenty of "safe" foods for pickier eaters. Definitely a crowd pleaser! We had tons of compliments on the food for our event, even from the folks who are normally not adventurous eaters. Check them out for your next event!
