I came in here after a football game and I was really hungry, so I came in not really expecting much, and then it was this super awesome cute little diner with so many different options I got TWO different meals. They were both fantastic I and definitely recommend coming here. read more

This place, well both locations now, are diamonds in the rough. Old school diner with a menu that goes beyond "diner food". The owner, Frankie, is wonderful; genuine and greatly appreciates his clientele. Go check out either location (Livingston or New Caney); you won't be sorry! read more

Breakfast was OK to me and better for my hubby. My omelet veggies were probably frozen so they had little texture. Hash browns were good and crunchy. Pancakes were good. Eggs were good. Service was excellent. read more

Stopped here when passing thru and will definitely go back when in the area ....decorated really cute and it was clean ... breakfast food was good ... read more

Very nice staff and the food is good! Nice burger and shakes place. I really like the old 50's style diner.

Great food and Great Staff. Our server was friendly and personable. Food was good including the appetizers. The baked potato with BBQ beef was more than I could finish. I will be back to try more things on the menu! read more

Came in waitress never checked on us on refills! If you want to wait for an hour to get your food, this is the place to come. Food is good and has good presentation but the wait and the service will get this review 1 star!!******** Owner gave me a $25 voucher, from 1 star I gave them 3 star read more

What a great little gem!! My father came up from Houston and we came here to eat with the whole family!! The place is set up like an old diner and they were spot of with the decor! (thumbs up) the wait staff was friendly and Victoria our waitress made sure we were happy while we waited for our meal... they make everything fresh and on the spot. Each of us ordered something different. My dad got the chicken fried steak and said it was fantastic, one of the boys got the Frito Pie and gobbled it up (he's the picky eater) and said it was great I snuck a couple of bites and the chili did not taste like cheap canned chili! Great job on that dish! My other son got the bacon and chicken fried chicken sandwich (yes it's a mouth full to say) and even bigger to eat! The chicken was tender and the batter was crispy the perfect combo! Myself and the boys friend got the hamburgers and again perfect they were juicy but not oily great flavor and the buns are superb . Last but not least my husband got the pulled pork sandwich they place the pork on the bun and you get the bar-b-que sauce so that you control how much sauce you get! The sauce is not a cheap bottle variety and has a flavor that can only be tasted to appreciate. So overall our first visit to the cute little gem was definitely one that will be repeated! Frankie the owner came to our table as every other table to meet and greet all of his guests and it was a genuine visit. Thank you Frankie for a great dining experience!! read more

Amazing fall-off-the-bone ribs and the ribeye steak for Sat steak night is amazing. Good place to stop on the way to/from Naskila or for a little road trip from Houston. The Blue Bell ice cream sundaes looked really good but we had no room left. Our server, Tiffany, was very friendly and attentive. read more

Great place to stop and have a bite. Friendly service, good price, nice selection of food. read more

Small town service, big city taste! Such a cute exterior and interior, just feels incredibly welcoming. The owner takes an immense amount of pride in the satisfaction of his customers and quality of the food. He was walking around the entire time, conversing with customers and checking on their needs. Our server was named Amanda and could not have been more attentive. We had the sliced beef plate and some of the Pit Row BBQ sauce (must try). Probably some of the best brisket I've had in the Houston area... All topped off with a scoop of Bluebell ice cream. They are opening a new location in New Caney, so I'll want to check that out too. This place is definitely a must try! read more

Ended up here only because of Yelp. We were going to eat somewhere else, but the wife was doing here usual searches anyway. What a great surprise! This place was awesome. Ordered the Chopped Beef Sandwich which included delicious potato salad and the best baked beans ever. Service was terrific and Frankie the owner visited our table to ensure satisfaction. They also have a wide range of deserts and a large selection of ice cream. The waitress recommended a ice cream sundae. She made one that my wife a d I shared. How sweet it was! We will be visiting again! read more

Cute place with very friendly waitstaff and great prices. The employees try really hard to make sure you're satisfied and happy with your experience there. I'd highly recommend checking this place out. read more

This place has only been open for 16 months. We are full-time RVers and have eaten a lot of bbq while traveling the South. This is our favorite. Any place with fall-off-the-bone ribs that are so tasty that sauce is not required has a special place in my stomach. The potato salad is the first ever to remind me of my mom's. The service was fantastic and friendly. Loved the 50's diner atmosphere complete with soda fountain. The owner came by our table and insured we were happy with our experience. read more

BBQ was very good, the ribs were excellent. The Cheeseburger was amazing, they forgot to give my wife her jalapeños and the cook herself apologized. The staff there is AMAZING!! They were sweet and personable and really made everyone feel welcome. Will definitely come back! read more

We found this restaurant by all the great Yelp reviews. Worked out for us to meet our Houston group here before heading back to Shreveport. The BBQ was delicious and plentiful. The chicken fried steak was prefect and the gravy was just right. The beans were great, the Cole slaw and potato salad was good too. We finished our meal with ice cream, yes! Our server, Kathy, was very friendly! We highly recommend Pit Row Pit Stop! read more

So glad I stopped here today. The restaurant is decorated in a 1950's style decor but isn't overdone or gaudy. The owner greeted me personally as I came in, and I was immediately seated and served my drink. The waitress took my order efficiently and correctly, repeating it to make sure it was right. I ordered just a cheeseburger and onion rings and each was perfect. The bun was a real bakery quality bun, lightly toasted. The entire restaurant was spotless. I highly recommend it! read more

My wife and I stopped in after I saw really good reviews. There were a lot of vehicles parked outside when we arrived which was a good sign. Cool decorations, staff was extremely friendly and everything arrived quickly. We ordered onion rings for appetizer and they were awesome! We also got the three meat plates with brisket, ribs and sausage which was also awesome. Highly recommend stopping by! read more

Food was great, big burger, tasty brisket but don't be in a hurry. Worth the wait & just a few miles off highway past all the fast food joints. Didn't order it, but while waiting for take out order the chicken fried steak looked delicious on dine in table. read more

I can say this is a great spot for family or just by your lonesome. I know they take great pride in the food and the service here. You got my vote and my appetite cornered. read more

Wow! What an unexpected little gem we found today! Ok, not totally unexpected - the Google and Yelp reviews were good, but totally underrated! If good bbq...ok, great bbq is what you're looking for, look no further! The sausage, brisket and ribs were some of the best I've eaten! The service was excellent, too. I live in Houston and will make it a point to eat at Pit Row when visiting family in Livingston! Pretty impressive, ya'll! read more

Great local food. They were out of ribs, so disappointing! They fried chicken sandwich is amazing along with frings!! The shakes are made to order, with blue bell ice cream. The service is good and the prices are reasonable. read more

Great ambiance, cool 50s looking inside. The food is good comfort style. Fried okra was great. Would recommend if you are in the area.

Really great atmosphere and food, overall a fun dining experience... when the speed is consistent. I've waited 1-1 1/2 hours for food almost every stop, and was served raw chicken on my avocado chicken sandwich... so that's not great. read more

Got to try the burgers! And Chili Fries! Great service. read more

Ate here spring of 2018 and just WOW! the ribs were amazing and so were the floats! It definitely has a unique atmosphere and friendly staff. It's also decently priced so if you drive by definitely stop here for any meal. A good place to have a date night or bring your friends or family. read more

Cute, clean and cozy little diner! Very attentive and friendly staff. The cheeseburger I got was well done and quite filling, and the few bites I managed to sneak off my sister's frito pie was great. Anything with the chili on it is sure to be tasty, although the onion rings failed to impress. Overall a nice experience, looking forward to come back and try the ice cream options! read more

Outstanding chicken fried steak and huge, delicious and crispy onion rings. The staff is very friendly and the service is excellent. The exterior of the restaurant is nothing to write home about but the interior is very clean and done in a cool 1950's ambience. I enjoyed this place very much and you certainty won't go home hungry. read more

Excellent food and friendly service in a retro themed diner. Had the colossal stuffed baked potato with rib meat while my friend had their country rib special of the day. We both enjoyed the meals we had. Topped it off with a homemade chocolate shake. Perfect. Owner came around making sure we enjoyed the food. Couldn't have been happier. They have a great selection of BBQ entrees, hoping to stop by again. read more

Wow. I've passed this place numerous times but never stopped until today. I got the grilled chicken sandwich. This is the best grilled chicken from a restaurant that I e wver eaten. My niece got s cheese burger. She's very picky and usually never finishes a burger. She ate the entire thing. You could tell the party was freshly made. Not a frozen party. Great atmosphere. Friendly people. read more

Have been to Pit Row Pit Stop many times in the past and was always satisfied with the quality of the food and staff. Due to Covid our last visit was about 15 months ago. Today the quality of both the food and wait staff have suffered since our last visit. Will give it a month or so and try it again. I dislike losing a good local eatery, read more

Good barbeque. Don't be so chintzy with the sauce. Paid almost $20 for a pound of chopped beef and you give me an ounce of sauce in 1 souffle cup. Really??? That's ridiculous. We didn't have sauce at home so we weren't able to eat all what we bought. Probably lost our business for good because of it. Usually buy half a pound and we get the same 1 ounce cup. read more

I love the atmosphere. The owner greets his customers to ensure they are enjoying their food and the service is good. I have eaten the taco salad, cheeseburger and chicken strips. All amazingly delicious. read more

Haven't even got my food yet but I can tell you they have the best service in town. Friendly smile from Heather the server, who went out of her way to make me comfortable. Ribs are amazing. Have a sweet flavor and so tender. I'll be back. read more

Great food, fast courteous service. The grandkids love the ice cream and chicken strip basket. The hamburgers are so big and juicy! We've tried the chopped brisket-excellent & potato salad, too. read more

Stopped here for lunch on our way home from Galveston. Really cute decor. Nice 50s look. But that's only the building. The BBQ is great. I recommend the chopped beef sandwich. Really good. Deb had the pulled pork sandwich. She said it was really good too. Sides are about average but you don't go to a BBQ joint to eat potato salad anyway. Service is good and very friendly. Great lunch stop. read more

SO CUTE! A true 50's diner and the details of the place are amazing! The service is great, the manager so kind, the owner so personable! They even allowed my sister to take her senior photos here! The burger and fries we tried were so yummy! read more

We stopped for lunch and had the Pulled Pork Sandwich. Service was fast and friendly, but the food was just average. Not bad, but nothing special. I did think the price was a bit high for the portion size we received, it wasn't a big sandwich with a lot of meat. read more

We loved everything about this restaurant. I ordered the cheeseburger and it was delicious! My husband had the chopped beef sandwich an loved it as well. The decor has a 50's diner feel to it. And the waitress was friendly and attentive. We will definitely return when pass through Livingston again! read more

Great place to stop for a quick and delicious dinner. Wait staff was super helpful and friendly!! Will stop again next time I am in town.
