They were very good but I don't know if I quite get the hype. For appetizers we split the cactus blossom, a battered and fried onion. It was HUGE. I wish the batter had been a little more flavorful but texturally it was very satisfying. Nice and crispy. For my main I got the herb crusted chicken with sides of Caesar salad and steamed vegetables. The chicken was well seasoned and a little overcooked. The Caesar salad and veggies were fine, just average. I don't know if I'd come back again when there are so many outstanding restaurants in the area but it was a fun experience.

We also went about an hour before they closed so I was expecting the meat to not be as moist as I would have liked. The cornbread was great, it had a sweet cadence and the butter appears to be made in house. The BBQ sauce was good, not great. The hot BBQ sauce was not very hot but they have some good options for sweet BBQ sauce. Mac and cheese had some bacon bits and was a good addition to the meal. I usually don't like mac and cheese, this was the exception. Additions that would put this meal over the top: hotter BBQ sauce moist meat

First night and meal in Portland Maine and we started off at Terlingua. We had a large group so we…read moreended up doing the family style dinner which was $55 a person but let me tell you, you get some much food. We started of with what they called snacks... That being Chip, Guacamole, and Salsa. I will say I was a bag fan of the Guacamole. I was very was seasoned and very fresh. So for the mains them Family Style comes with Smoked Prime Brisket, Pork Shoulder (Pulled Pork), and the Rotating Daily BBQ which for us I believe were Burnt Ends which are one of my favorites. For the side we had Mac & Cheese Cornbread w/ Honey Butter, House BBQ Sauce & Spicy Vinegar with Pickles and Salad. To start with the sides that Mac & Cheese was really good but the winner was for the the Cornbread with the Honey Buter. The 2 just paired together so well. For the mains my favorites were the Smoked Prime Brisket and the Burnt Ends. The Brisket was good., probably not in my top 3 all time but for sure a must try. The Burnt Ends were also very good. You can't always get Burnt Ends but when you can it's for sure a must. We really enjoyed Terlingua and can't thank the staff enough for working with us for this event. For sure a must stop in Portland when you have a big party. Just plan ahead because they are so helpful to work with.

One word... AMAZING. Barbecue is an art with components that…read moreshould create a complete experience. Let's begin with ambiance--there are outside tables charmingly arranged beneath stylish arbors--and the interior is equally warm and stylishly arranged.. concrete floors, wooden tables of various sizes, chandeliers, brick walls, mixed with rustic white washed wooden signs. The menu is extensive .. there are so many choices it was tough deciding.. The proprietary sauces fantastic... my favorite.. the Carolina sauce..but in addition to perfect barbecue staples, let's also mention the hush puppies and biscuits to die for.. and the fresh cut crinkle potatoes are sprinkled with out of this world seasoning. Service is very friendly and helpful.. Great cocktails added the right tone. I cannot wait to go back!

Won't be going back. I asked for my ribs to be served without sauce which I was told the last time…read moreI was there I could do. The ribs clearly had sauce. I could see it and I could taste it. The reason I didn't want the sauce is because it is very spicy, and while I love spicy food, on ribs I prefer a sweet barbecue sauce. I was going to use the delicious one that is on the tables. I told the cashier who had taken my order that the ribs had sauce. Not so much as an apology. I just won't go back to a place where you can't count on them to prepare the food as ordered.

Tennis and ships in Boston Harbor were on the 2 screens and music like My Girls by Animal Collective playing. As a millennial, I appreciated the ambiance. I was pumped to realize they share a parking lot with Palace Diner and Sacred Profane, so I knew where to go and didn't have to pay for parking! We had the Frito pie appetizer which was very good. I love all my food extremely hot, because I take a while to eat, so I do think the Frito pie could have been bubbling, especially since it was served in a baby cast iron skillet. To drink I had what was essentially a margarita, which was solid. My husband had a maple bourbon cocktail and enjoyed it. For our main, we shared the tray for 2, which was more than we could eat, at least after the Frito pie. I liked the brisket, ribs, and Mac and cheese the most. The cole slaw needs more flavor/sauce but feels like a healthy slaw as is. The service was OK. There was 1 waiter for the whole place and he had 6 tables at one point. He was very friendly and offered suggestions. We will return because my husband wants to try a sandwich. I'm not sure what I will get, but the menu has a lot of really good options, including vegetarian barbecue options like tofu and seitan, so there's something for everyone.

So I opted for Griffins since they had some decent reviews and wasn't too far. Griffins exceeded my expectations. I ordered a 6pc chicken wing with a "sweet heat" dry seasoning, brisket w/ blueberry bliss bbq sauce, and two small sides, mashed potato with gravy as well as the street corn. Not only did I feel like the prices were more than fair, but the food was delicious even after it had taken a ride. The brisket was tender, juicy, perfectly fatty, and the blueberry bbq sauce was balanced with a sweetness and a slight tang. The chicken wings were extremely juicy, perhaps some of the best cooked wings I've ever had. If I had any critique it would be that they were slightly lightly seasoned, but that is just me nitpicking. The mashed potatoes were rich, buttery, and decently seasoned, but felt slightly one dimensional. Lastly, the street corn was both rich and tangy which helped cut through the richness of everything else. I plan to visit Griffins in person and am looking forward to it.

Confession time: the idea of paying to cook my own dinner has never exactly screamed "great night…read moreout." Then I went to N to Tail, and now I'm considering a career in table-side grilling. The meal started with spicy cucumbers, fried eggplant, and Korean fried chicken. The cucumbers were refreshing, sweet, spicy, and dangerously addictive. The eggplant was crispy, sticky, and packed with flavor. And the fried chicken? My partner could have just eaten that alone and been happy! The four of us went all in on the largest combo platter. Short rib, ribeye, pork belly, shrimp, chicken, veggies--the grill was working overtime. The short rib ipractically melted, the ribeye was buttery perfection, and the pork belly reminded us why pork belly has such a devoted fan club. There was a brief period where my partner and I had no idea what we were doing at the grill, luckily we were with seasoned veterans of it! By the end of the meal my confidence was soaring that I could do this again! The banchan, which the server hinted at has a few sides that change time to time, kept every bite interesting The service was fantastic and so informative, and the entire experience was far more fun than I expected. N to Tail is a hidden gem. Come hungry, bring friends, and don't be surprised if you leave wondering why you haven't stopped by sooner.
