Oh, and the ladies bathroom was spacious and very clean. I recommend this place if you're in the mood for tasty food.

Running errands in this area and dropped in to try Memphis King's (1st time visit) I always get the same wings (hot buffalo) at each restaurant/bar to keep things fair. Memphis King's wings are smoked, then fried. I've found that you lose a lot of smoke flavor when they're fried to order but these had just the right amount still present. Very tasty. And crispy! (a lot of smoked wings are grilled but, while delicious, it doesn't render enough of the skin to make them crispy and I like crisp!) I've sampled wings from about 30 places (so far) and I would whole heartedly put Memphis King's in my top 10 for sure. Looking forward to trying their other items because their burnt ends look great. As does the house made pastrami *droooool* As for the people, the gal in front of house was wonderful. And the chef (not sure if he was the owner or not) was so nice. Kept checking in on me to see how everything was and kept offering me suggestions and samples. Not pushy, just smart business because I'm 100% gonna go back.

We drove away to start ordering pizzas and wings because he w has family coming over in 1 hour and has no food for them. We received a call back and were given a story and excuse regardless it certainly was not what we ordered. We've had the food in the past and thought it was award winning but we will not be returning and will be sharing this with friends & family so they don't have the same catastrophic situation arise with this business. We should've ordered through Meat & Company in Niskayuna.

They had dinosaur barbecue catered and the food was outstanding. There was pulled pork, barbecue brisket, homemade mac and cheese, and cornbread which melted in your mouth.

Wanted to try the Alabama white sauce but they were sold out! I had hoped they had a Carolina mustard sauce,however their BBQ sauce was pretty good. They do not service alcoholic beverages but I believe some neighboring restaurants had margaritas for sale if you prefer to wash your BBQ down with that, however tasted amazing with my Diet Coke! Go check them out, good bbq is hard to find!

Placed an online order for the 2 meat platter - brisket and ribs. Sides included baked beans and…read moreslaw plus corn bread. Cost 8/26 was $29 per webpage menu(Uber Eats adds about $10 before 'discounts'). Overall pretty decent bbq for the area. Brisket was served without sauce(the correct way - add if you like it) and was properly sliced and tender. Slightly on the dry side. It was a little bland without sauce but not overly salted like some other places. Ribs were tasty with a dry rub. Menu stated 2 ribs but I was given 3 slightly smaller ribs. The beans with burnt ends were very good. The coleslaw was also well done - not too wet nor too vinegary. If you are a light eater this is easily enough for 2 meals. I am giving them 3 stars based on my country wide scale (includes TX) but I'd likely give then 4 stars if limited to this area. Only real pain point is the price. But that is just the way things are these days.

The only dedicated Korean fried chicken restaurant in the area. Many flavors to choose from and I've tried about half, but my favorites are still the Golden Original and Secret Sauce.

I decided to give Signal 30 a try after hearing many great things about it…read more Taking this account, I ordered ribs and brisket with fried pickles and the results were satisfying. To explain, the ribs were excellent. They were tender, flavorful, and had a ton of meat on the bones. In similar fashion, the brisket was pretty tasty. To breakdown, the brisket had nice flavor with a good amount of fat around the edges. However, the middle of the brisket was a bit overcooked. It was still enjoyable though. After that, I tried the fried pickles which were delicious. The pickles were crispy with a savory and salty taste. These were simply great fried pickles. As a final point, Signal 30 is a really good BBQ restaurant and I highly recommend the ribs and fried pickles.
