Went on a whim... Saw them on a list of top BBQ spots in SD...packed our stomachs, our bowls and our flask...parking was a little tight, but there 's secondary parking in the grocery store next door. They seated us right as we walked in, had a good crowd on a Sunday afternoon. Were playing the Padres game on the 'ol tube. I was feeling a little fruity so I had the Caribbean cocktail but the bf had my fave drink there, the whiskey business. That s@#t is like a cold version of a hot toddy ?? We got the party for 2 meal, which was PLENTY for 2 ppl. The brisket and the shoulder ...oooooooh girl, heart attack pero worth it!! Them sides though! The Mac and cheese, the killa beans were tasty but the street corn had me at hello?? Because everything had been freaking delicious up until that point, I said fuggit and went for dessert....and I 'll do it again the next time. The cherry delight and the apple crisp were sooo good. And it was housemade (sometimes restaurants buy desserts from third parties). These guys definitely have a gem on their hands...the food is great, the service was AWESOME and I 'm pretty sure the reason why is because there 's a lot of talent and a lot of love that goes into this spot. GET IN THE CHOPPA!! ...OH! Wrong one. I mean, I 'll be back . ?

My husband and I were there twice now, and both times the food and service were excellent! The brisket just melts in the mouth, and if they have their banana pudding, it's an absolute MUST! The food fills our stomach (big portions), but the service fills our hearts. Renee was our server both times, and she needs an increase. She is so friendly, attentive and sincerely wonderful. I really hope Pioneer knows what an amazing person they represent their restaurant!!!

OG Mac and cheese, hard drive for two brisket, chicken and pulled pork with Coleslaw, killer baked beans and bacon potato salad. The food was pretty good, the price was decent. We ate until the bells were full and still take a few to walk boxes. Brisket and pulled pig definitely my favorite. We will definitely recommend and return for more BBQ. The best way to celebrate my anniversary with my beautiful wife.

We loved that place! Now it?s our favorite restaurant in San Diego. The Brsiket was delicious! It was very tasty, soft and juicy! The Onion rings, mac and cheese and the cole slaw too! The waiters are kind and friendly. We really enjoyed the dessert! A banana pudding. The only thing is that the hamburguer was tasteless. I would not order a hamburguer again.
