We have enjoyed every single trip to the Smoke Pit. The food is quality, reasonably priced and the staff are warm, welcoming and so friendly. Every meal is top notch. Their portions are all fantastic and the salad in particular is unbelievably large.

My husband loves this place! He works off of 321 so they order from here often. We went as a family for the first time tonight and took our almost 7 month old! The smoked Turkey was to die for, our baby boy agreed. We also enjoyed the sliders, sweet potato casserole, deviled egg potato salad, Mac and cheese and the corn bread. It was all soooo good! We have a new server and he was great!!! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Pulled Pork

I saw the sign for this place a few weeks ago and finally managed to stop in. When I ordered the stock market, I thought it was a sampler platter of their brisket, sausage and pulled pork. Boy was I wrong! It's one HUGE sandwich!!!! I did my best to fit it all in my mouth, and I succeed (one time). Pics for proof!! Once this sandwich was pulled apart for more manageable eating, I was able to savor all the flavors individually and I have to say that it was all incredible!!! I will return. Service was excellent. Lillee took great care of us! P Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Pulled Pork Sandwich

What can I say? BEST brisket in North Carolina! Succulent, juicy, TASTY and the price is not too expensive! Also, get their burnt ends and mustard chicken! Not a lot of people can smoke chicken right but this place sure is! For sides, go for mac&cheese and cornbreads! Delicious! Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20

Amazing. Food was delicious. Tender Ribs and brisket. Putting on barbecue sauce not needed but if you do. Look out! Flavor bomb! Mac was good wish it was a little more burnt on the top.

First time here and it did not disappoint! We had a little bit of everything and it was all very good! Our waitress Demi was super friendly and seemed genuinely happy to help.

We look forward to eating here at least twice month now. The portion sizes are perfect- enough for left overs. The food is a 10/10 every time we go. & most importantly - the service is the best part! Demi served us the first time we came in and ever since we’ve requested her section. She knows the menu well, she always makes sure we’re happy, and always greets us with a smile! Good Customer Service is hard to come by… when we find it…we are loyal! Thank you Demi for giving us an experience everyone deserves. Why are you still on your couch? Go to the smoke pit, sit with Demi, and order some good bbq! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Food was really good. I had the pulled chicken with a slice of Texas toast and soft bun (they did 1 of each bread for me bc I couldn’t decide) it was great. Very flavorful. My brother had the brisket with fried okra. He really enjoyed it as well. The second time we went service wasn’t as great as before but still pretty good. Oh! And the apple cobbler 🤤 sooo good I forgot to take a pic of it, it was gone so fast 😂 Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes Sandwich

My server Kamryn M was super attentive. Before I could ask, she was refilling my drink or asking me how my food was. The food was excellent and the portion sizes were perfect, filling me up! Will definitely be back. Meal type Lunch Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

A hidden gem! Clean and well-lit space. Nice and welcoming staff. The service was good. It took a minute to get a clear understanding of which wines were available but honey I forgot all this confusion when the food arrived. Delicious!! The restaurant is new to Gastonia. While visiting with friends this was high on their list of places to dine at for dinner. Everything I tasted was amazing. The brisket is a favorite of mine but the barbecue also won me over. The Mac and Cheese was so creamy and delicious. The collards were also good as well as my cornbread. I tried almost everything I didn't have on others' plate and I wasn't disappointed. I can't wait to return. I'm already planning my next trip from Raleigh! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
