Fantastic bbq! They have limited hours and sell out quickly. I had the gorillabowl woth smoked turkey and pulled pork. It was delicious . Also I had medium heat sauce, normally when I go this high it's still mild. This is some seriously spicy sauce so order accordingly. I had the beans which were sooo good. Highly recommend this spot. It's a hidden Seattle gem.

I’ve been coming here since they started... still good and messy. I’m not a big fan of the slaw. BBQ beans could be smokier. The pulled pork or beef is where it’s at. Let them know the spice level or they won’t put any. Good service and plenty of outdoor seating.

Wow! I had a sliced beef brisket sandwich spiked with a hot link, baked Mac N Cheese and a soda. Wow! The beef was plenteous and lean. The hot link was so tender it fell out of the casing. Great little place with quick and friendly staff. I had my order before I finished paying. Parking is free but it fills up during the early part of the noon hour. Well worth a visit.

Outstanding food, honestly surprised they made it look this good (and taste as good as it looks). First time here after driving by it often, definitely worth checking out!! I got the shredded brisket on mac with medium heat

Great little place to stop in for some bbq. There are many different levels of spicy as well... medium is pretty spicy. They have Pepsi products for drinks - no alcohol. There are no public bathrooms on prem... so keep that in mind. Worth stopping in, the outdoor seating is lovely on a clear day. They take cash or credit.

Great place to have a bite, gets busy at lunch time but definitely worth it. I think the spice levels they have are accurate even though people are saying even the medium is killer (personally, I think the medium-hot is best and I don't think it's unbearable). Definitely get a hot link on your sandwich, and you can't go wrong with the brisket!

I ordered the nachos with a link on top, OMG! I did not expect that much food. Portion size is great and the BBQ is out of the world amazing. We also ordered a pulled pork sandwich, again amazing and they don’t skimp on the meat. Can’t wait to go back to fulfill my BBQ needs.

Tried rock climbing for my first time over at Momentum. Let's just say, long story short, it didn't go well. Super hungry so I came here after and gorged myself on the SLICED BRISKET SANDWICH and BAKED MAC and CHEESE. So good, so unbelievably good.
