Food, service, cleanliness. I have been a customer of the original Hickory pit from when they were located on telegraph Avenue in Oakland. I have been eating at the Hickory pit since early 1960s

The best eggs Benedict - ask for sauce on the side unless you like tons of sauce!

It's really more of a diner than a BBQ place. The kind of diner where the waitresses call you "Hon."
