Joshua BrewsterApril 12, 2014Amazing food, great atmosphere, awesome drinks. Highly recommend the beef brisket with their mild bbq sauce and cornbread. :)
Maina KhojaJuly 18, 2015Brisket and sauce were great, all types of ribs were dry, mashed potato was bland, and SAVE space for the yummiest banana pudding!
Will KnollJuly 19, 2016Hush puppies are extremely bland, but the pulled pork is amazing. Also, try a mixture of the mustard, and vinegar sauces on the brisket.
Robert LearyNovember 9, 2014Brisket has a nice flavor and texture. Opt for what they call the leaner of the two choices. The marbled one is just too marbled.
Meatloaf sandwich is great; so-called 'burnt' cheese is really fried, crispy, and delicious!
Mix some derby mustard sauce into your side of mac n cheese - two great tastes that taste great together! The house infused cocktails are a must. One of my fave PDX spots.
A LNovember 11, 2013So good. The baby back ribs with the classic sauce and the handmade chocolate pies delicious
Robert RenkApril 15, 2014The people there are great; the food is very good, but Podnah's takes the blue ribbon!
Tana HowtopatSeptember 26, 2011Great BBQ...not burned to a crisp, slathered with tons of overpowering sauces....fabulous flavor and fun atmosphere!
Tim UngerApril 29, 2012the medium sauce with the pulled pork is perfect, full of flavor but not too spicy.
Rogelio MendezAugust 20, 2012Sunday night long wait for a table so I ate at the bar, no wait great service from the bartender
Kids love the mac and cheese here, get a side order instead of the kids meal. Its cheaper and you get more, plus you hold the fries.
Jennifer BrandDecember 3, 2010Cant go wrong with pimento cheese. Oh yea and the mashers are sublime!
The vegetarian greens are some of the best in Portland.
add derby mustard to your classic, kind, or killer BBQ. you will love it. and ask them to put both on your BBQ.
- The food here is adequate. But they're nazis about seating and feeding groups larger than 6.
Great food and good beers on tap! The derby mustard sauce is delicious
Saturday night's special (Smoked Salt & Pepper Lamb Ribs) = WIN
If meatapalooza scares you, try the pulled pork sandwich. Like it spicy? Go with killer.
