The food was alright over priced for the quality. Overall service was poor, Didn't appreciate how long the girl behind the bar took to make our drinks, had to ask for silverware. Music was to loud and the lights were to bright gave me a headache. Could've done with out the cold square box design read more

The hostess literally ignored us for 10 minutes and we left, this place is completely unprofessional and treated us like shit.

Tiniest possible portions and so-so food surpassed only by an incompetent staff who couldn't scramble an egg if their lives depended on it.

Bravo! Finally someone in Arizona knows how to make good bbq! Being from Texas I know what good bbq tastes like and this is awesome. I came once before during their early soft open days and while the food was good then, the service was very much lacking. Happy to say that it seems kinks have been addressed and both the food and service were great. Glad they made it into a sit down/service place as it's nice to go somewhere you don't have to keep getting up and down to enjoy a meal. It is super pricey, but the portions are generous and the food is great. We started with the loaded fries and ate every last French fry. The jackfruit bbq plate was awesome and a great meat alternative. The brisket was so tender and melt in your mouth, and the selection of bbq sauces on the table was a nice touch. My only complaint is the prices - I opted not to get an adult beverage with dinner because of how expensive (like resort prices expensive). Hopefully they can make it through all the hoops OV business face and can stay open, cuz this is a great addition for those of us in upper OV. read more

Fork & Fire - Brisket plate with potato salad and Cole slaw - Barbeque Near Me - Oro Valley, Arizona

Food was average. Based on other reviews my expectations were higher. The servers and managers were friendly and hard working.

Fantastic food ! My first try here and I got the pork pulled Mac and cheese.my boyfriend got their slaw dog millionaire. The max and cheese was creamy and the pork was very flavorful. The only thing I'd say is the price was a bit steep for the portions we got. But other than that I hope to order from this truck again !! read more

Periodically, when that bbq'd brisket, ribs, pork, beans, slaw etc kicks in, I try once again to see if the NW Tucson bbq wasteland still remains before accepting I must drive beyond...My eyes must have deceived me or YELP made a misprint...corner Oracle/Orange Grove....no....not possible! My suspicion was so deep, I called! Indeed, they are there!!!! I'm on my way back today. Great group of fellas interested in making folks happy and serving up good bbq. Most important it is good!! It will satisfy! read more

So so tasty and delicious. Quick service nice staff. Fine atmosphere. Love it. Easy to get to and plenty of space and quick seating and service. read more

Still jone'zing for good bbq and came into the restaurant. Talked to the owner about the phone situation. Said he fixed it and I hope it works. Food was great. Had the brisket quesadilla, pork fries and $5 margaritas!! Amazing! Hoping it can be delivered!! read more

Fork and Fire is a place to go!! Many great food items, beer and service. Tatum was our server. She was very busy but was pretty attentive to us. The Maui shrimp appee was great. The Cuban sandwich was great. Didn't like the chicken breast sandwich ... was surprised it was pulled chicken and not a breast and I asked for it plain, nothing on it but Mayo, and it was served with lime oor something on it that I didn't like ... couldn't eat it but others may love?? Lots of things to try on subsequent visits. Unfortunately we have to downgrade our review substantially. Last night they had few tables and we were there for a long time. But not surprised it was not crowded due to food and service. Servers very nice and friendly but need way more training. Drinks sitting at bar for quite awhile as she was walking around aimlessly and casually cleaning off an empty table (one of three as no one was there), totally unaware of guests. Food was awful. Ugly steak was ugly. So over seasoned barely eatable. What happened to the augratin potatoes .. last time pretty good, this time weird flavor. Green bean medley so over spiced, couldn't eat. Tables with bench so uncomfortable, they should consider cushions. Spent $100 on barely mediocre dinner and nice servers but poor service. We won't be back as we can go to Harvest or Michelangelo's for amazing food (and way better menu selections) and good service for same price! read more

Fork & Fire did not disappoint! Amazing food and beers, beautiful restaurant with a huge patio. Service was amazing thanks to friendly staff. Do not sleep on this place!!! read more

The 2 stars is because the food was delicious! We smoke a lot of food at home and are picky eaters- they did a great job with food. Otherwise, drinks were quite strong, and our service was non-existent other than taking our food order and dropping our bill. I understand it is busy though the waitor must have walked by us 7 times without asking how we were. When our plates were done, he asked how everything was. Should I have wanted another drink, unless I had a much bigger chest and hair down to my derrier (as the woman who was served 4 drinks sitting diagonal from us), I not have gotten one for the $70 we spent on dinner. The views are great! read more

Unexpected surprise and good food on a rainy day. Bourbon old fashioned was perfect as were the taco trio

After giving them a bit of time to work out the kinks we decided to come back tonight. We got the same meat combo to compare apples to apples. So brisket, pulled pork and sausage. This time we got Mac & Cheese and Mac Salad for sides to try different ones. Both of the sides were really good. The Mac & Cheese is creamy with a good flavor and a hint of smoky to it. I suspect they use a smoked cheese. The Mac Salad was good with a nice creaminess and a nice neutral flavor. Happy to say the briket was better, it was sliced a bit thicker and had better tenderness to it and a great smoke flavor. The pulled pork was about the same, good flavor but a bit to wet for my tastes. The sausage is the same fennel sausage so I got that all to myself which was fine by me as I love a good fennel sausage and this was charred very nicely. Overall if they keep improving I see a bright future for them here. All the other BBQ places are a good 30-40 minute drive for us so having this close is great. read more

Really great food! Fun ambiance and we had good service. Unfortunately in our world right now everyone is super short staffed but they tried their best and did an awesome job! They need our support! Deviled eggs and crab puffs are a fave! read more

Horrible food and worse service. Couldn't reach a manager to complain. Overpriced for minuscule fatty portions. Shouldn't be in business.

We've eaten from their food truck in the past, so we knew the food was good. We decided to try the new restaurant format and were not disappointed! There was no waiting in line, the menu had a lot of delicious things on it, and the service was good. The food was delicious and the portions were what I expected. This is definitely a restaurant to visit and support in OV. We are lucky to have it! read more

It was pretty great. Everyone is conscientious and the service is great. The BBQ is a little better than the place it replaces. There are some very exciting things on the menu. Im looking forward to eating here several more times and experiencing the final improvements as they work out the kinks. Most BBQ isn't worth bothering with but this place is totally worthwhile. read more

I truly hate when I get my salad and I have to comb through it to get out any rotten or on the verge of rotting. In my opinion it was okay. I'm not a big fan of Barb-o-que unless the barbecue sauce has a kick spice wise. read more

My wifey and I had a great night out and it started with St. Louis ribs from Fork and Fire. From the start exceptional customer service from our server (Hanna). Food was great. Managers milling around talking to patrons. We were very impressed but the attention to the customer by the staff. This place had the 3 core requirements for a good restaurant. Good food, great staff, and clean. We will be back. read more

The steak was exquisite and the games where fun. And the mountains where a very nice attraction. The service was very great. The clouds where very nice also. In all it was a good place to eat. read more

We are so pleased to find this excellent location for barbecue in Tucson and to have entertainment by KT Klassics during our visit made more exceptional ! The food is outstanding even from someone who has been to KC, Memphis & St. Louis! Outstanding! read more

We stopped here because we were hungry while passing through Oro Valley. My bacon wrapped crab poppers had to be sent back. Bacon was half raw and and there was no crab flavor at all. My side salad was fresh and good. Hubs said his mac and cheese with smoked brisket was lacking in any type of cheese flavor and all he could taste in the beef was smoke. In other words, it lacked seasoning and was bland. Fortunately, the server was nice enough to take the poppers off our bill. She was apologetic and accommodating and otherwise served us well. Prices are on the high end for this smokehouse. read more

Friendly staff. Prompt service. We had the deviled eggs, Maui shrimp (omg! Repeat for sure!), ahi tuna salad and full rack of ribs. The ribs were very obviously smoked all day and still had crispy edges. Potato salad was bangin, beans were a heavy green chili flavor and not super sweet which was excellent. Ahi tuna salad was full of flavor. Nothing bad to say! read more

For starters, I enjoyed the burnt ends appetizer. Each bite was tender, well seasoned and the hickory bbq sauce complimented nicely. I originally ordered the ugly steak, but was later informed they didn't have any available, so I changed to the brisket and chicken platter, which came with vegetables, beans and Texas toast. Loved the brisket, but found the chicken to be overly soft as if it were held in fluid awaiting orders, overall underwhelming. The bbq sauce did help the chicken become tolerable. The brisket was also well seasoned, tender and delicious. It didn't need any sauce to enjoy its consumption, but the different sauces available were tried. The beans were a compliment that enhanced my meal which I would recommend others to consider. Not a fan of broccoli, so I don't have a review of it; didn't eat the vegetables, but they did look appealing. Too bad they didn't offer corn on the cob as this goes well with bbq dishes. Our server was friendly and attentive. Overall our dining experience was pleasant. Too bad I didn't have room for dessert as I observed the offerings in the display case at the entrance. Will be dining there again soon. read more

Great BBQ, amazing weekend bartender!! These people know what they are doing!! Love the smoked old fashioned too!!!

Outstanding! Have no idea why we haven't come here sooner. The deviled egg's are like nothing I've had before. Phenomenal!! Had the Cuban sandwich also WOW!! Jen the bartender was fantastic! Gave us suggestions that didn't disappoint. Her personality certainly complimented our evening. Can't wait to come back! read more

We really enjoyed our happy hour beer and appetizers. Excellent draft beer selection! Our server, Hannah, was outstanding - fun, personable, and efficient. We definitely recommend Fork and Fire! read more

Not to my standards. Poor ambience, a place that I would not seek for my eating pleasure.

First time in the restaurant. The food was delicious, however the service left much to be desired. Our server was young and very inexperienced. Plus the effort just wasn't there. She got our drink order was wrong and our food also was not correct as she seemed to be distracted even though there were not a lot of customers in the restaurant. We also asked for two boxes for our leftovers and she only brought one and then we wound up asking another person for the second box. read more

The food was fantastic, and the bartender really fun. Ahi tuna salad was excellent. My husband had the Ahi tuna tacos he said they were delicious. In fact, he ordered another serving of tacos. Not our first visit, I usually have the hanger wedge salad. Thought I would change it up. Great place nice and clean. read more

We were super excited to eat Fork & Fire's food. We waited and waited and waited. The advertising said that they would be at Button Brew House at 5pm. Yeah, they were there at 5pm, but they weren't ready to serve food till about 45 minutes later. That was a drag. They need to show up at 4:30 and be ready by 5 if they're going to say they were going to be there by 5. You expect that food would be ready to go by then. The food... not good. We ordered the Loaded Tater Tots. Very small portions for $8. They weren't even Tater Tots. They were home fries (square cut potatoes) and the pulled pork that was on top didn't even taste like BBQ. They were pretty bland and didn't even stand out compared to the other flavors on the potatoes. Granted, at a brewery, they filled a spot that was a half hour late, but we really wanted to try them and love them. I know they're new to the food truck scene, but you can't advertise Tater Tots and not even give you Tater Tots. And if you're going to call yourselves a BBQ joint, you'd better taste like BBQ and not just throw some beige pulled pork on stuff. I will say that since you're brand new, we'd love to try you again. Please be ready by the time you advertise to be there. Show up early. People are waiting to give you a try. Good luck and keep going! There's potential. read more

Nice barbecue restaurant in Oro Valley Marketplace. End building with a good view of the Catalina Mountains from the patio. Attractive indoor space with a bar. Food was delicious and the beer was cold. Friendly staff and good barbecue. read more

GREAT BBQ + SIDES. We catered a dinner for 15 at our Air BNB home and hired Fork & Fire. The brisket had an AMAZING, AUTHENTIC bark and perfect moisture -- the tell tale signs of a pit master who knows what they are doing. The pulled chicken was tasty and juicy--a feat for chicken! They provided bbq sauces (the spicy one was awesome) but we really didn't use them because the meat was so good on its own. The smoked wings were fall off the bone. We could not decide which sides we wanted to order so we ordered some of everything...a great strategy since they were all fab! BBQ beans, Mac and cheese, potato salad, squash, coleslaw, corn bread and dinner rolls. They were all a step up from the best of the classic version. Mac and cheese had buttery bread crumbs, plenty of cheese and bigger noodles to grab on to. The Beans had a delicious and not overpowering sauce and was studded with bacon and tiny red peppers...I normally had bbq beans because I hate bbq sauce but these were so awesome. The coleslaw was crunchy, perfectly seasoned, a nice mix of cabbages and creamy but not drowning in mayo. Potato salad was creamy, perfectly cut potatoes with just the right amount of mayo. The corn bread were small sweet corn muffins with a bit of heat from green chiles at the end. Dinner rolls were classic Parker type rolls. There was plenty of food and we even used the beans and brisket as side dishes to next to the next morning's cheese omelettes. The customer service from James was above and beyond... he helped me craft the perfect menu, was communicative, and delivered on time... taking care to make sure all the food that needed to be chilled was delivered in ice Overall a huge hit and made me look like a hero --especially in front of our family from Texas! Somehow a NYer found the best BBQ in Arizona! read more

Wonderful experience. Met friends there & great service & very good food. My smoked chicken salad was delicious & my husband really liked his smoked sausage meal. Our friends had smoked pulled pork with fries. Our service was impeccable! We have ordered a whole smoked turkey for Thanksgiving. Definitely recommend. read more

I have been to the restaurant now a few times every time the food is been very good the prices are right in line with everybody else in the area. The people that are working there I've always been very supportive of their business and very helpful to all of us in our group anytime we've been there. I myself really enjoy the outside seating area. The burnt ends are great so is the pulled pork sandwich and the ugly steak. i'd give this place an A +++++++ read more

First time trying this establishment out. Our server and the rest of the staff were super friendly, very attentive. In fact, some of the best customer service we've had in a while. Both my husband and I have the pulled pork sandwiches with fries and we also ordered a side of macaroni and cheese to share. all the food was very good. My husband had a flight of beers. Nothing really special. They're pretty much the same kind of beer he could pick up at the grocery store. I had a vodka mule and that was really good. We also took a Keylime pie home since we were so full from dinner. The Keylime pie was really good. May be a little bit too much zest for my liking but it didn't stop me from eating it. Lol. Nice casual place to try. If you want some good barbecue, I would give it a solid 8 out of 10. read more

Coming from the south, I know nothing in Arizona could compare to southern BBQ. However, we stopped by Fork & Fire on a Saturday night craving some BBQ and it disappointed. The price point is pretty high for the lack of quality. I ordered baby back ribs. It wasn't sauced very well, there wasn't much meat and it was as tough as jerky. I had to saw the ribs apart with a knife. The beans tasted like Busch's beans. The hot bbq sauce wasn't very hot at all. The pros about our experience was the drinks. Maybe, since it seemed to have opened just recently, they haven't gotten it down to a science yet. Not sure if I'm willing to go back to try again with the price point. read more
