Had the chance to eat at Shigs In Pit while in Fort Wayne, and it was a solid BBQ stop. I ordered…read morethe wings with half Shigs seasoning and half white sauce. The wings were cooked perfectly, juicy, and packed with flavor. The seasoning had a great balance of spices, and the white sauce paired nicely without overpowering the wings. My wife ordered the two-meat plate with smoked turkey, pulled pork, apple pie baked beans, and the green chili mac and cheese. The apple pie baked beans were tasty, and the green chili mac and cheese had just enough kick to complement the BBQ. The smoked turkey was a little dry, and the pulled pork was slightly over-seasoned for our taste, but both were still enjoyable. The wings stole the show, and the sides definitely pulled their weight. A couple of small misses kept it from being a five-star meal, but the outstanding service and welcoming atmosphere made up for a lot. If you're in Fort Wayne and craving BBQ, Shigs In Pit is absolutely worth adding to your list.

We also had the pulled pork sandwich, kids ribs, and kids Mac and cheese. Everything was served hot and fresh. You order at the counter and an employee brings your food to the table. It was quick and we received everything as we ordered it. We sat outside on the patio which was great. It was clean, had umbrellas, and is dog friendly. Overall good experience

They have a good selection on a front and back laminated menu with various dishes from pizza to ribs, chicken and pork dishes. There are also vegan options such as Mac and cheese. For a barbecue place their prices are very reasonable with a daily special I noticed posted in the wall going into the bar part. My granddaughter used some app they are tied into where you can buy songs to play, that seemed popular with everyone. Our table was clean although I do t like being seated by the kitchen entrance when there were plenty of tables elsewhere to be seated. That's why the 4 star, I don't like the in and out of the staff and congregated talking by everyone by our table. I was concerned seeing an employee scratching at his nose in the hallway coming from the bar to the kitchen not stopping to wash his hands, maybe he did in the kitchen part. The food was good, ranges from sides, aka carte to different size platters with what looked like the entire menu on it! The food smells good, the wing sauce was abundant, dripping and delicious, the fish sandwich was very good. They also have take away which was doing a tremendous business while we were there. Located in a small strip mall there is a lot of parking, also handicapped, and easy access into the restaurant. The food and friendliness of the staff was a great experience.

First time eating here, but not that great. I tried the fish and chips dinner which was…read moredisappointing. The French fries are so dark, bordering on burnt and way too salty.

ACME by Full Circle (east State Street) - returned to try the Legalize Marinara recipes after a…read morelong absence It's been a while since I'm been back to the ACME for pizza. The last time we did...ACME had partnered with Legalize Marinara to make pizzas for them. The menu looks like LM's recipes (see picture of menu). The pizza had a familiar taste. Though, the pizza I had was a bit different. Before I get to the pizza...let me say that Joslin did an incredible job serving us. She had great suggestions. She hustled the refills. She was personable and funny. Great representative for ACME!! Also...I had to try the smoked Cole slaw - it intrigued me! The fresh cabbage pieces were large and purple. They tended to be a bit tougher. The mayo sauce had a nice seasoning - possible dry rub. This created some kick and saltiness. The smoke flavor was evident but not overwhelming. Nice dish! We ordered a 16" ACME Deluxe thin crust pizza cut into large square pieces. I didn't know that you could get a thin crust and square pieces - so we tried it. Last time we got a hand tossed - different taste. The pizza crust was fairly thin and a bit crisp - but not crunchy. While the picture might suggest that it was slightly over cooked...it was actually okay. The crust was a fairly plain flour crust - no extra taste. The pizza sauce is really tasty. I liked the thicker consistency and bolder tomato flavor. No spicy after taste. Good Italian seasoning. The sauce did a nice job accenting the toppings. There were plenty of fresh toppings covered with a thinner bed of mozzarella. The meat taste wasn't very prevalent - maybe could have used more meat. Everything seemed to blend well. You do pick up a heavier salt taste. Cold Pizza Test - ACME's pizza was pretty good the next day. The crispier crust stayed crispy without being tough/chewy. The pizza sauce stepped forward - the tomato taste really started to come out. The toppings still blended well. The salty taste seemed to get stronger.

We were greeted by a teenager with a major attitude. She shoved us toward a table and said you will sit here and then disappeared for 30 min. She's probably the niece of the owner or has a connection of some sort that's forcing her to work there because she looked pissed to be there. We did notice the rest of the waitresses were very nice. When we were ordering, my husband wanted the pork tenderloin, and the young lady asked if he wanted the lunch tenderloin (which was smaller) and immediately complained about people yelling at her because they didn't understand the difference between the two and went off. My poor man tried to be nice and said he wanted the larger one. It was so uncomfortable. Anyway, we ordered the fried mushrooms, obviously frozen. Indiana has many small excellent local places with FRESH fried mushrooms. Then followed some supbar smoked wings (although cooked decently) and my husband thought his pork tenderloin was 5/10. It was overall not great. Someone take effort to train your young staff!!! And I have dined at many places in Fort Wayne who have outstanding young staff...

Been meaning/wanting to try for a while, but have never got around to it. Ok experience, but there's some areas of attention needed. Pros: Friendly/quick service, outstanding brisket, excellent bbq sauces (I particularly liked the vinegar and spicy sauces), and large portions. Cons: Over-priced, average at best sides, extremely smoky in dining room, and dirty/run down restaurant. Overall our experience was good, but the smoke in the dining room was a real problem that actually had my eyes burning/watering while we were eating (it literally looked like an AARP Club Catholic Church bingo event, it was that smoky inside the restaurant), the food is stupid expensive ($35 lunch, one person), and the sides just weren't good (bland coleslaw and broccoli salad). The restaurant also needs a facelift and desperate deep clean... It had that dirty, grimy, sticky feel on the floors and tables (presumably from all the smoke in the dining room). I still consider Shigs n' Pit to be the far and wide the best BBQ in town, but Lucille's has the potential to be really good if they can make some adjustments, improvements, and clean the place up.
