First time here and probably won't return. I ordered…read moreNashville Hot Chicken sandwich and Waffle Fries with a pop. Cost was about $20 with a 10% tip I left for bringing me my food. The good: waffle fries dunked in Rooster sauce, which is basically a copycat to Raisin Canes sauce. The bad here is where it goes south. The chicken breast is huge and too big to get your mouth around the bun. It is obviously frozen as the crusty crispy part was hard as a rock. I removed the bun and cut with a knife but chicken was tough that it bent the tines on the plastic fork. The chicken also tasted rubbery. The coleslaw on top was a huge mess. I ate about 1/2 and brought the rest home to my dog. I removed most of crunchy coating. Maybe the chicken tenders are what you are supposed to order. I don't know. Super expensive for basicly frozen chicken. The mall was also basically abandoned. Go elsewhere!!

Ordered a 12-piece with tenders and fries and have not been overly impressed. They've got the…read morecrunchy part down, but most everything else is lackluster. For starters everything is underseasoned. If you eat any of the chicken without the breading it's pretty bland - it doesn't taste like they brined it or did enough to get seasoning into the meat. With the breading it's crunchy but honestly could also use a bit more salt - the spices are nice though. However, the biggest issue is that the chicken is all overcooked. The tenders are dry and chewy. The regular pieces aren't quite as bad as the tenders in this regard, but still aren't juicy or tender. What really strikes me as odd though is the the meat is overcooked but some parts of the skin aren't completely rendered, so you occasionally get a flappy unchewable piece as you're eating. Everything is edible, and I could see how good this could be with these spices if the chicken wasn't overcooked and underseasoned and the skin was properly rendered, but that's not what I received.

I have had the chicken, pulled pork, and brisket, hojos, fries, Cole slaw, and Mac (at different…read moretimes, not all at once lol) and it's all pretty good. I'm not a Mac person so it wasn't for me, but kids would love it. I really love the brisket and how flavorful it is, and it's not overly dry. The chicken wings are no joke, however you order them. The hojos remind me of campfire potatoes, never mad at that. Cole slaw is well seasoned and not soupy. I've had the pulled pork twice, first time was great, second time it ate dry, will order a third time to know how I really feel. Overall a nice little BBQ hidden gem on University and I'm a fan.

If you come at lunch time, there is a sandwich and fries special, which is what I got. The turkey was delicious, although a few bites in, I decided to forgo the bread and just ate the meat. There are also several (6 maybe?) choices of sauce to use. Wish there were combos available outside of lunchtime but can always take extra home for later. Definitely would recommend for some good meat!

Plenty of seating for small to medium groups! It's kinda fun that we can see the smokers at this counter service establishment. The staff was friendly and helpful at recommending the many menu options! Ordered up a 1/2 pound of brisket, smoked potato, and corn bread. Great portion sizes for these smokehouse staples! They have plenty of self-serve sauces to douse your plate. I thought their St. Paulie sauce was a perfect savory sauce without much heat. The potato came with an absolutely delicious smoky sour cream. Overall, wonderful BBQ for those craving some smoked meats! Can't wait to come back and try some of their other offerings!

There wasn't an option to order chicken nuggets online but when I got there, I saw it and knew it would be perfect for my picky kid. The cashier said they had the best chicken nuggets and he was right, at least to my kiddo. 8 piece nuggets and fries for only 5.99.

However, I realized that it was early November, and some of the usual players were done for the season. As I was about to admit defeat and grab something from Panera, I see Scratch Food Truck and I was saved :) They have a nice selection of sandwiches; I was heavily debating between the pork & shrimp patty, the sesame beef, and the fried chicken. The jalapeno slaw on the fried chicken sandwich won me over in the end, though. The fried chicken sandwich comes on a long bun, and is absolutely delicious. The slaw is spicy and tangy, and paired with the crisp fried chicken and mayonnaise, it makes for a very excellent sandwich. They make their own chips here, too, and you get a very generous portion with your sandwich. I'll definitely be coming back here.

There's a selection of sandwiches and wraps. I went there yesterday and they had rolls on the menu! Two of us ordered the Pork/Shrimp sandwich, and another the sesame beef.

Everything is made to order, but still a quick turnaround! The pork/shrimp sandwich came with (what I believe) a tasty mango-type slaw and 'mystery' sauce that really created a 'light' asian taste to it. Not heavy at all, regardless of the size of the sandwich! All of us enjoyed our lunch and plan on coming back for more!

We entered after taking a picture outside and it was a deli paradise. Lots of beef and pork and they even had pierogies. Looking back, I should have tried a package. Locally made. They have a ton of cheesesteak options, I went with the pastrami for my first foray into PaPa Q's happiness quotient. We walked around the store while my meal was being prepped. They had tons of local hot sauces and salsas and it was all good stuff. About 5 minutes later they gave me a sleeve of sub and it reminded me of when I was a kid and I would go with my dad to TOGO's in California and their awesome subs with avocado on it. Good times. They said I could get a little side salad too, so my wonderful wife suggested the broccoli, bacon and kale salad. It was a total hit. Not to much bacon, but you could tell it was there. I have learned during COVID that when you bring a dish home, always nuke it for 30 to 60 seconds. I did, The thing was humongous, my wife cut it into thirds to last the weekend. The sandwich had a lot of coleslaw on top of not too salty pastrami and a chewy bread. A toasted bread would be my only recommendation to make it better, but this was a solid hoagie. Great service and a local place. I am glad we went! Try it out!

We tried two half sandwiches, the papastrami and the jerk chicken cheese steaks. They were a good size for one person but i definitely would look into adding on sides or going for a whole if you've got a big appetite. The pastrami was not too salty and definitely gave you your money's worth of meat, that being said this was a messy but delicious meal! The jerk chicken cheese steak delivered a slightly sweet and juicy sandwich with a slew of tasty toppings. I was craving Mac and cheese but unfortunately they didn't have it on the menu so I went with the macaroni salad which was creamy and tasty if you're into pasta salads. Didn't quite fill the void but was still a good addition Sandwiches come with chips or a cookie. The cookies are pretty big and taste fresh so if you've got a sweet tooth I'd go for it! All in all good food for a good price. Didn't quite fit the traditional BBQ cravings we had in mind but we for sure found a new go to deli and cheese steak place!
