    Apple pie and more muffins
    Vickie B.

    I read a fascinating article in the free NorthSide paper about this octogenarian owner who is Manchester native. I had hoped to meet him but probably because it was a holiday, Juneteenth, I met a delightful young man. We ordered 2 chicken dinners. It is attached to the Valero gas station just off of Brighton Rd and not too far off of W NORTH. There are 2 doors. Take the door on the right. It could have been a pleasant walk from the AGH area, except it was 95 degrees out. But that didn't deter me. I had wanted to try this place. Our chicken pieces were HUGE and nicely breaded. There are many options for generous helpings of sides. We chose 2 mac-n-cheese. It was good, but I prefer a gooier stringier version. The greens were also good but spicy. Then there were apples and yams, which were tasty. Each dinner comes with a delicious corn muffin. And we got a bonus, 2 slices of apple pie, and 2 more corn muffins. Now you aren't dining at 40 North, but for the taste and the value, this is a solid option. You can see your choices on the "order now" option on their Yelp page. That's run by GrubHub and perhaps costs this tiny place money. Just go in. And did I say the chicken pieces are big and juicy. And we have leftovers.

    For starters, don't let this pic fool you, my chicken came cold, this chicken has been sitting there for a long time, it was soggy and not cooked throughly. I had to put it in the air fryer to cook it and for it to get hard. They also threw in thighs and I only asked for wings so when I called the person told me that's all they had at the time. Why not call the customer and let them know before you make that decision. I'm not ordering from them again, I only ordered because my nieces like their chicken n I didn't have any to cook myself. This has probably been the 3rd time I've ordered from them and something's been wrong.

    Sooo let me tell you how we ended up here. We are on a quest to try Pittsburgh's best through the alphabet. We started with places that start with "A", and go to "Z." The only rule is, neither I nor my girlfriend could have eaten there before. Let's just say that there are not a lot of "Q" restaurants around. Arrive at Quik-It-Chicken. A gas station/ hair salon/ chicken shack hybrid, it actually smells really good inside and even on the car ride home, our take out smelled amazing. The taste was close. I got the Quik Meal- a wing and a leg, with collard greens and a corn muffin. Chicken (on bone)- 3.3/5 The chicken was sitting out a while so I put it in my air fryer for a little bit when I got home which made it better. It tasted fine but could have been seasoned a bit more. I want to try a fresh piece of chicken right out of the fryer. Collard greens- 3.7/5 The collard greens are exactly what I expected, cooked right with a kick! Cornbread muffin- 4.6/5 But the corn muffin... let me tell you about this fluffy, moist, decadent, corn bread muffin... MMMMMMM! I'd be back just for one of these God's gifts to earth. Chicken tenders- 1.8/5 My girlfriend got the chicken fingers which sadly, were poorly breaded and very, very dry. Avoid at all costs. If you're in the area and want some fried chicken, stop in. You'll get your fix. Definitely get a muffin!

    First, you will have a hard time seeing this place from the street. It is in the Volero Gas Station. Ok, now that you found it, the chicken... great. Those ribs.... OMG!!!! Fall of the bone tender with a house made sauce. It's like a honey mustard base with bbq and a kick. Can't get enough of it!! While you're there, strike up a conversation with the awesome owner, Eugene. You will leave this establishment with your belly and your heart full!!

    Insanely good fried chicken, greens, cheesy potatoes, Mac and cheese and corn bread!! We tried a wide variety this time but I can't wait to go back for my next sampling!! Super affordable too :D excellent

    Their bbq is absolutely fantastic. The right amount of smoke flavor, falling off the bone meat, no gristle or fat. The fries were tasty and crispy. This was my wife and my first time trying here. We ordered through UberEATS. Uber screwed our order up the first time by not sending it through. After calling the restaurant, they were extremely helpful and got right on our order. The cons, for me, come down to my preference. I personally like a thicker red beans and rice, and a little more bbq sauce on my ribs. But that's me. Everything else was perfect. I hope one day they have brisket. It's been a very long time since I had a good BBQ brisket, and I feel like they would knock it out of the park. We will be ordering from them again. Amazing!

    Applewood Smoke Burger is a burger counter tucked away inside the back of Park Place Pub in…read moreHighland Park. It's a different menu and different register from park place pub. There's no signage outside for applewood so I consider it an almost burger speakeasy! The service here is pretty fast - we ordered a little after 5pm on a Sunday and got our food and finished it all before 6pm! The burgers we got were so flavorful and delicious and we were are blown away by this hidden gem!! My applewood burger was incredible and the maple sauce was delightful. I'm so glad we discovered this place and I would go back!!

    November 2025: lightly edited realtime notes:…read more - This is like a pop-up restaurant that is inside of a bar. - Buffalo wings, Nashville hot wings. The wings are cooked perfectly. The sauce is weak. The fact that the wings are crispy and fried and 100% dead-on makes up for the weak sauce. All things considered, 4.2. Could be 4.6 to 4.8 with decent sauce. In retrospect, having tasted the sauce as a side (below) I think they tossed the wings in the sauce when they were too hot, kind of denatured things, and got too much oil in it. The sauce is actually very good, and these wings could have been a notch or two better if they had let them cool for just a hot second before tossing them. These wings have the potential to be some of the very best in the city. - Onion rings here are just absolutely perfect. Think of the best a Burger King onion ring could be, and these are four notches up from that. - The french fries are OK. - The side of buffalo sauce that they brought us from the kitchen is so much better than how the wings came out; I am presuming that the wings were tossed in the sauce too hot, and not enough. These guys actually have a great buffalo sauce. - I got the Smashburger. Cheese, lettuce, pickles and their special sauce. No substitutions permitted. This burger is excellent and exactly what I wanted. 10 of 10, would totally order again. - One of our group got the signature applewood burger."It's delicious!" - Another got the farmhouse burger and seems to be completely tickled with it. "It's really good. How can you go wrong with bacon and egg on a burger?" Unfortunately, restaurant was out of the cheese sauce tonight. We observed that the cheese sauce would've made it "fire." - J got the Cajun burger. "Awesome. Very good!" He wishes he would've asked them to add bacon to it.
