The cole slaw had a lot of black pepper. Brussel sprouts were a little bit too sweet for our taste, but well cooked. All meats were well seasoned and if you like sauce there are 4 different sauces you can use in the table :) Only downside of this place is that the booths are a little bit too tight.

The menu offered a variety of options- something for everyone. You have salads, bowls, sandwiches and platters. The platters, signature to any barbecue joint, includes a perfect portion of any meat of your choice, beans, toast, pickles & slaw. The restaurant also includes a bar situated off to the side if you just want to grab a drink with non alcoholic options available! I definitely plan on coming back.

I personally wouldn't recommend this place or come again. Mostly because of point 3 below…read more 1) The presentation of my smash burger was terrible. The burger came all alone on a metal pan. Normally this is fine. But it was terribly presented lonely on a metal plate. I've had smash burgers before that had way better presentation (see Bar 140 in Shelton, who does this job on point). 2) Drinks. Terrible IPA selection, but at least they put Maine Lunch in a normal pint glass. The biggest issue is my wife ordered a couple Old Fashioned. The first was a "normal" sized glass (see pic) from my experience. She ordered a second drink that came out in a "mini" glass. It was ridiculous. It was the size between a shot glass and a normal Old Fashioned glass. I asked about this, see below. 3) When I asked about the smaller glass size on the second drink, the manager came over and said "the small glass is the normal size, you should be lucky they gave you that larger glass by accident" ummmmmmm hellll noooooooooo. I should feel lucky?????? No sir. The first glass was a NORMAL Old Fashioned sized glass. No way in helllll that second glass was "normal" size. She gets these drinks all the time and they all come in size of the first glass. So don't bullshit me..... The way the manager guy approached this is why i am giving a poor review. There is absolutely no way the second glass was normal size. I just can't accept that. It was a ridiculously small glass. Being put down like I don't know anything is not the way you treat people. You need to approach this type of situation differently.

I enjoy talking to them when they're not super busy and they're always serving amazing food and slinging awesome drinks (beers, cocktails and mocktails). I enjoy their breakfast. Eggs are cooked to perfection. Their breakfast bowl I had was awesome. I don't like my food touching so I asked for everything to be individually served. The tots were crispy, chili is awesome! Usually the breakfast bowl is all of the above layered in a bowl. Get it! You won't be sorry. The breakfast burrito is pretty hearty. It has eggs, cheese and potatoes wrapped in a flour tortilla. I've had their breakfast sandwich on a hard roll and it's probably one of the best breakfast sandwich (egg, cheese, bacon) I've ever had. For lunch and dinner they have many options since it's a bar & grill. I personally love their chicken Caesar salad (you can get it in a wrap too). The chicken is so moist and seasoned to perfection and grilled nicely. My son practices here three times a week so he grabs dinner to eat in the car and he enjoys the kids menu options. They're located on the second floor of SoNo Ice House. Ambiance is a chill vibe with music loud enough to hear but you can still hear your friends during conversations. The tables are seated by the window so you can see your kid(s) play/practice. It's clean. Has a full bar, full kitchen and booth seating as well. They also have a private party room for rent and they'll cater it as well. So many great things to say about this establishment. Shoutout to Jackie, their new server this season. She's wonderful and always remembers my regular order.

So I've actually debated whether or not to include this UberEats delivery review. The first time I…read moretried to go through with it, I just couldn't really figure out what to write. I only ordered it on UberEats this past Friday night, so it's not like I actually went there. However, the more I ate and thought about it, the more I realized something. This is the 4th year in 6 I've done a pre-birthday send-off UberEats order, and this is my 3rd year in a row doing so. In 2021, I had Edo on the last week before I turned 30. 2024, it was Boatyard at Smokey Joe's in Stamford, ordered on April 18. Last year, I did the Norwalk location of Elm Street Diner on April 24. If we want to take that into consideration, then that would be reason enough to sum my thoughts up together and get something down. So to send off age 34, say hello to Walrus Alley! If I'm being honest, I always wanted to have a barbecue right before my birthday of this year of all years. It only felt appropriate for 2026. Originally, I was going to have Wire Mill Saloon from Redding delivered using Yelp, but one of the items I'd ordered was out of stock, so that got canceled and I turned my sights here and ordered what I would have gotten from Redding. This was a half-rack of ribs, an order of Mac & Cheese, side of cornbread (this one came with coleslaw and pickles), and an a la mode chocolate bourbon pecan pie. The pecan pie was the only change since if I had gotten the Redding order, I would have had a key lime pie a la mode. I also put in some Alabama sauce because it does ribs a new flavor to play along with. I had everything over the next three days, hence why I am writing this review now. I will start by saying the ice cream did not make it without melting, but that's okay. I wasn't expecting it to since my driver did have to make a bunch of stops along the way, making my order take over an hour to deliver. No fault on the driver or restaurant there, and I ended up drinking the ice cream anyway, and it was still refreshing, so c'est la vie. The pecan pie it came with was actually really good. I found that it's better if you let that chill off a bit. Don't use plastic silverware for this one for the pie will break them, but delicious and sweet all the same. I'd love to have this in an in-person visit. In contrast, the cornbread should be warm when you eat that. It's buttered and soft, but it might be too dry if you try to eat it cold. The pickles are more of the spicy kind. I prefer sweet pickles, but I don't mind them being spicy either. The coleslaw I will say suffers the same fate that befell the one from Boatyard: it doesn't taste like true coleslaw. They should take a bit of inspiration from the Smokies (think Eastern Tennessee or Western NC) to learn how it should be done. It's lacking that mayonnaise component that truly makes it coleslaw. If they added that, then we might be talking! I decided to leave the ribs and Mac & cheese for last in the review because they do provide reheating instructions for those who order take-out such as myself. The Mac & cheese was actually eaten very late on the first night. The instructions given for Mac & cheese were spot-on, baking at 375 for 10 minutes before I dug in. It was some damn good Mac & cheese. Cheesy, love the breadcrumbs, and very satisfying overall. The ribs were the last to be finished. I will say I did also follow the instructions for the ribs as they were written; however, unlike the Mac & cheese, the ribs were still cold in the middle after 20 minutes in 375. You need the microwave to finish the job here. The ribs themselves were good. They weren't the best ribs I've ever eaten, but they were tender, the BBQ sauce was tasty, and the meat fell right off the bone. I will say that for this meal it needs a healthy amount of Alabama sauce all on it to really elevate it, but other than my experience reheating them this was my only criticism. Overall, a worthy BBQ meal. I'd still pick Hindsight BBQ over this if faced with deciding which CT BBQ to go with, but this will get the job done and then some if you need good BBQ. I'd love to come in-person one night and experience this place firsthand.

Good evening ladies and gentlemen! Say, what do you do when you are in a 12-hour work shift and…read moreyou need dinner? You get food of course! Now, I happened to be that guy working a 12-hour shift, and I was craving barbecue today. So out on UberEats and drawn from a list of options, I chose this place and messed around with my order a bit so that I would have a good meal. That meal was pulled pork, brisket, Cole slaw for the side, and then I also had cornbread and an order of garlic bread with Gorgonzola dipping sauce (the other choice was Marinara). Honestly, I wish ALL places that paired orders with Marinara had a Gorgonzola option! Pairing that cheese dip with garlic bread for $6? Worth every penny! Seriously, whoever thought of this must have walked up to God Himself and asked for His food preferences because THAT was heavenly! The cornbread was great as well and quite moist and sweet. The Cole slaw was next. If that was a "Southern Cole Slaw", then I'm King Kong wearing a red cowboy hat! That ain't taste like no true Southern Cole slaw I ever had. It was more like Coh Naw! The most distinct taste you get from it is the vinegar. If you're gonna make me a Cole slaw and call it southern, put some mayonnaise in there gosh darn it! So it was up to the meats to decide how this would end. Thankfully, both were really tasty, and the BBQ sauce used was really good! All-in-all, a very satisfying meal! One thing I will say is that if you are going to get this, do NOT do what I did and use Uber! The food itself was $37 on the bill, but my order actually cost me $57. That's right! $57 on UberEats! So if I ever get a chance to have this again, I will just visit the restaurant in person next time. What I got was worth the original bill, so $37 for this is fine. But I ain't paying no $57 for one person again!
