Smokehouse & BBQ - Beef brisket 1/2 lbs

Best bbq/ smoked meat I've had in a very long time. The…read moreribs had the house sauce, very good not too sweet or spicy. Both the brisket and pulled pork were very tender and flavourful. Only good quality meat tastes this good. The coleslaw was good . The secrete ingredient in the dressing was mango. Don't worry if you don't like mango. You don't taste it, it's just part of the background flavour and creates a flavour profile that is amazing. Same with the potato salad, tiny bits of mango in it, it just blends with all the other ingredients to create something really special. Service was excellent, I think it was the owner, but judging by the place, all the employees would be as knowledgeable and helpful, I diols mention, the wings. Very good, the honey garlic sauce dripped of onto the plater, I loved dipping the fries in it. We tried the hot honey on the side. Normally I don't like the spicy, but even with the kick it had, it was very good. The price point was very good. Even with the recent increases in price, it more affordable and higher quality than our regular spots closer to home. We had the feast for 2 for $75. It could have fed 1 or 2 more. We loved it. Cleanliness was excellent and exceptional. Looking in the kitchen, I've never seen a cleaner place. The only negative which is a positive for us. The sausages were not ready. My husband was disappointed, but it's good to know the food is that fresh and probably why the rest was so good and so fresh and flavourful. This is a place we will be coming back to and would recommend

This place is not too pricey…read more Half ribs were tender enough & the sauce was good: on the tart side & slightly spicy. Half was large. 1/2 lb brisket was good. It could be fattier. Lamb sausage (daily meat) was good: very meaty & slightly spicy, with a nice spice mix. Cornbread was pretty good: moist enough & quite rich. Mac & cheese was good: nice breading, a bit firm & with a very rich & cheesy sauce. The washroom is surprisingly stylish.

Delicious BBQ uptown that pleases both picky kids and adults of all ages.

The portions are generous. The accompanying sauces flavourful and I appreciate that the meats weren't overly salty and just perfectly seasoned. We ordered a platter for 4 to feed 3 adults and 2 hungry kids and we have plenty to spare for leftovers. Some of us also ordered the individual build your own, which is also quite affordable and reasonably priced. My fav has to be the ribs and brisket. The Mac and Cheese disappeared quickly. The staff was really friendly and helpful and there was plenty of seating on a Sunday evening when we dined as a group of 8. Asked everyone's rating at our table, they gave this experience a 4.5-5 stars all around. Definitely a spot we don't mind returning to!

Stopped in first time to have their happy hour menu. Got a…read morebit of everything. Pulled pork sliders, beef brisket slider, sausage original and the jalepeno cheddar and a point of wings. Cow big fries loaded sweet potato fries with pulled pork and slaw. Absolutely delicious! The wings were slightly overcooked as were the pulled pork a little bit to the dryer side but good value none the less. $5 Hank lager pint. Looking forward to coming back.

During a one-on-one meeting with my documentation manager on Tuesday (I am graced with two managers these days), he let me know about this newly opened Chuck's eatery. I was game to try it out. Of note, there are three Chuck's near my workplace. This one is the third-closest one to the office. I came here after work, which is on one of my regular routes getting home, which avoids highway 401. This Chuck's takes over from Mr Greek that was there for eons. I remember going there at least a decade ago. The hotel next door is now Spark by Hilton. It used to be Hotel Carlingview, so both buildings have got facelifts. I had no problem heading northbound on Carlingview and hanging a right into the parking lot. I pulled into a parking spot. When I got out of my car, there was a drop. I realized that the pavement was uneven. I ended up straining my left hip. Luckily, it's a mild strain, but it's such an annoying ailment to have. There should be a sign saying that the pavement is uneven. There wasn't. I can see someone twisting an ankle from it. It's not safe. I walked in. There was a man in front of the Harley. He was about to head out for a smoke, but he was busy talking to the greeter. Once he left, this cheerful woman said hi and led me to a booth in the dining room. It's spacious. I forgot how large this place is. My server was Ananya. She was friendly and competent. I'd say that she's curious about the world, but is a diamond in the rough that will become that shiny gem in due time. I am such a regular that I knew that it was Wednesday ribs day with specials. My manager asked if I was going to dine here. I said yes and I was getting the ribs and wings combo. Ananya let me know about the wing specials. I went with my combo. I was trying to locate the wing sauces on the menu. My server ended up going into the kitchen to fetch a tablet with the sauces. She was quite the tour de force, which I appreciated! I eventually found it on the menu and went with honey garlic. I upgraded my fries to mashed potatoes with gravy for $3. I wanted something comforting. Some folks may have found my server too chatty. I didn't mind it, likely because I find folks interesting. She asked me where I "was from." If you know me fairly well, I don't do well with vagueness. Where I'm from as in where I live? My heritage? My planet's homebase? I asked her to clarify. She thought that I was Filipino. It wasn't a horrible guess, but I let her know that I was Chinese. She then asked about foods that I liked. She was curious about food from various cultures and was interested in trying some out. I suggested hot pot with friends. She had mentioned trying food out with friends and hot pot would be great, especially with all the proteins, veggies, desserts, soup bases, and sauces available. She was super attentive. I ordered a Diet Coke and she made sure that I never ran out of it. My drink was fizzy, cold, and hit the spot. She did ask me whether I wanted ice. I sure did! She let me know that my food was coming out soon. Moments later, I got one plate with my ribs, wings, and mashed potatoes. A separate bowl with my gravy accompanied it. I asked for extra napkins. I got lots! It turns out that I only needed two napkins to get through this meal. The ribs were fall-of-the-bone delicious. I love Chuck's barbeque sauce. It's smokey, flavourful, and yummy. I loved the honey garlic wings. Each wing had the perfect crunch and was coated with honey garlic goodness. Each wing was meaty and enjoyable to eat. The mashed potatoes and gravy were excellent. The gravy was generous that I drenched my mashed potatoes with it. So good! Another female staffer came over to clear my plate and bowl away. Staff are extremely attentive here. Sam, the manager, came over to ask how things were going. I let him know that the food was great and I loved watching the Pirates baseball game on one of the screens. I asked him how long this eatery has been open for. He let me know that it has been a month now. Nice! Aranya brought me the payment machine. I let her know that she was great, which made her smile. I tipped and tapped. Done! I headed to the women's washroom, which was in the corner by the bar. It had a few stalls. The one that I used was clean, but the shell that would have protected the massive roll of toilet paper came undone. The shell looked like a shelf! It's a decent Chuck's. The property owners (not sure if it's the hotel or Chuck's) does need to look into the uneven pavement. It's so difficult to notice until you trip or you come down on it awkwardly. (351)
