    Buffalo Cauliflower Wings
    Nelson R.

    We went on a Sunday afternoon and the place was lowkey. We had the Buffalo Cauliflower and it was ok, I had the 3 meats platter which included both the brisket and pork ribs which both were also ok. The pull pork along with the mac and cheese and cornbread were good! And the star of the show was the lobster mac'n cheese! Definitely recommend. We will be back to try other dishes! The service was great too!

    Food was great but after waiting for 2 hours to be served... unbelievable. After reading reviews about the Mac and cheese being good, it was a huge let down. It had an acidic like taste, thought it was odd but it might've been due to the fact that it was busy. We were also yelled at by a bald guy in thick, framed glasses named Gus. So rude, if he can't handle the pressure of customer service maybe find a slower environment. Although we are grateful for Lorraine as she handled our table with professionalism and grace. That lady needs a vacation or a raise asap.

    Pulled pork and brisket

    Sadly not the spot for bbq! Service was quick and friendly but not the most attentive, and the restaurant has kind of an industrial feel for somewhere you're eating. In general, the meat was a bit tough and dry, and the sauce was a little too thin to really go well with the food. Buffalo cauliflower wings were surprisingly crispy and hot! A good amount of spice and the ranch was perfect Pork belly buns were hard to bite into, but the flavor was great We got the two meat combo tray with pulled pork and brisket. It's a decent serving size, but the meat could've been more tender A solid location with a lot of street parking nearby, but there are certainly better bbq options in the Boston area.

    Had a great time dining at Reunion BBQ! The service is very friendly here and we enjoyed the food. We started with the buffalo cauliflower which had a nice kick to it. The homemade ranch and blue cheese also adds a nice touch! I got the chopped brisket sandwich which I enjoyed. My husband ordered the two meat combo with two sides. We were a bit disappointed with the portion size for this. For $27.99 we expected a much larger portion.

    For a BBQ place in the North, I'll admit I was pleasantly surprised. At first I was wary, as you can't smell any smoke, smoked meats, or really anything upon entering. The restaurant is clean and nice, but I was expecting to smell something cooking. I ordered and the food came out fast. A little smaller portions than I was hoping for, but I didn't leave hungry. The ribs were great, the pulled pork was already sauced, and the brisket was a tad fatty. But overall I was happy. The sauce choices they give you are interesting. A North Carolina BBQ, Habanero BBQ, and a "Taxan" BBQ. The NC sauce was just straight vinegar as far as I could tell. I like vinegary sauces but I needed to use it in conjunction with the Taxan BBQ sauce which is the most "normal" of the 3. I'm not only super spicy BBQ sauce so I didn't try the Habanero one. If you want any other sauces they are unfortunately an extra 3 dollars. (Not sure the amount you receive but 3 whole dollars for a side of sauce feels extravagant). I got two sides with my platter, potato salad and BBQ beans. Both controversial sides in the South as everyone has their own twist and opinions on what is the "right" way. I can say the beans tasted more like chili than any beans I've had before. I didn't hate them. Just not what I was expecting. The potato salad was decidedly nothing like any southern potato salad I've ever had, but it was honestly one of the my favorite things. Overall it was a great experience and I would definitely see myself going back, maybe trying a full rack of ribs since those were my favorite.

    BBQ Sampler Platter

    My husband and I went here for dine out Boston as we love good BBQ. For the food it was really good! We started with BBQ cauliflower wings and a biscuit which were very flavorful and that biscuit was so soft and buttery. The BBQ sampler platers with 4 meats and 4 sides were tasty and fall off the bone. However, the ribs didn't really have any flavor as opposed to the other meats on the menu we tried. The crispy potato bites...delicious!! To end we got the chocolate trifle that was nice, creamy and chocolatey. Overall very good comfort food. What killed it for us, however, was the service. We came before the dinner rush and even though it wasn't super busy it took at least 20 minutes to get our drinks and food ordered. At the end of the meal, another server ended up having to give us our check because our original server was not checking on us and we were waiting a long time for that too. For us it's not worth driving to Boston to check out again.

    I came here during Dine Out Boston with a friend and had an amazing experience! The vibes are cute, giving Southern vibes and it wasn't too busy when we went around 4pm. Their dinner prix fixe menu was a fantastic deal! For $46, you get 1 appetizer, a bbq plate which 4 meats + 4 sides, and 1 dessert. I ended up getting: - Mac and Cheese Bites for my appetizer: this was delicious! The ranch they have pairs great with the fried mac and cheese that was phenomenally seasoned. My friend got the biscuit that came with whipped honey cinnamon butter which was DELICIOUS. This is easily a must have since the biscuit was so soft and flakey and the sweet whipped butter just melts into the warm biscuit. - BBQ chopped brisket, sliced brisket, pork ribs and pork belly with sides of crispy potatoes, cole slaw, vegetables, and potato salad for my bbq plate. The star of the sides was easily the crispy potatoes. Let me tell you, the white bbq sauce to pair with the crispy potatoes is one of the best decisions ever. The crispy potatoes are wonderfully seasoned and pair amazingly with the bbq sauce. I could eat a whole bowl of the crispy potatoes. My favorite meat was either the pork belly or the BBQ chopped brisket. The brisket was so tender and soft while the pork belly was incredibly crispy. The rib wasn't anything special since it wasn't falling off the bone and the sliced brisket was alright too. The meats also came with three bbq sauces that you could add on! I think my favorite was the vinaigrette they had. - Chocolate Trifle Cup for dessert. This was a great way to round out my meal, but I unfortunately didn't end up finishing it because I was sooo full from the bbq plate! I really liked the contrast between the soft chocolate cake and the crunchy heath cookie bites at the bottom. Overall, great experience and can't wait to come back again! Parking is a bit tough around here, so I would just recommend taking the T. Also, service was great, special shout out to my server! I forgot my apple watch on the table and she made sure to keep it safe in the back.

    Zero of the 3 meats in my 3 meat platter had any discernible smoke flavor. No smoke ring. Ribs were unseasoned. Not underseasoned... completely unseasoned. Naked, and not in a good way. Brisket had an artificial aftertaste. Sausage was gray. Everything felt and tasted sad. This isn't barbecue. It's small servings of the meats that you would order at a barbecue restaurant, prepared by someone who has never had the real thing. Beans too sweet. Potato salad passable but boring. The highlight of the meal was the crispy potato side that my buddy got with his wings and the Alabama white sauce they came with. Should have gotten the burger.

    I want to start of by saying I've never had inherently bad barbecue, in NY we have a lot of fantastic BBQ restaurants but this? This was absolutely disgusting. The brisket (if it even was brisket) tasted like nothing and was dry as a puck, the pork tasted rotten and was mushy. The potato wedges were nice and crispy but had literally no salt. The macaroni and cheese was actually quite good and so was the horseradish sauce. The waiter had the nerve to say he tried the pork after and said it tasted fine but me and my father agreed it tasted off. They also had "bbq sauces" that were Carolina bbq sauce which was balsamic vinaigrette and another one which was just straight sour pepper juice. Waiter never apologized we had a poor experience either. Probably one of the worst things I've ever eaten. Avoid at all costs.

    Quaint, friendly, and eclectic. What a wonderful experience! As part of dine out Boston, we decided to try Reunion BBQ. Street parking is available, but can be a little tight. Reunion BBQ is a very nice spot with an upscale feel for barbecue, but also offers a bar, patio and nice upbeat music. I'm told live music is coming on Fridays. They are actively looking for performers for regular sets. Patrons were eclectic in nature from, families, couples, girl and guy groups chilling inside and on the patio, also at the bar. It seems to be a place for all ages. This is refreshing! But the food! OMG! We had the barbecue sampler plate, which included four meats and four sides, and a dessert. See the attached pictures. The food was delicious!!! Meats were tender, and the sides were all really good. The meats are served without sauce, and were excellent! Three sauces were provided. One was Texas style, one vinegary, and lastly habanero. I partook of none of that! We have added this to our repeat list. Give them a try, I don't think you'll be disappointed. We definitely weren't!

    Girlfriend and I came out for Dine out Boston, haven't had BBQ in forever, was super excited... Arrived at 5:50 with a reservation, seated right away, got our order taken at 6:20, food came out at 6:50. Service in general was very slow, many angry customers around us, we even had to share menus because the table was sat with nothing. Food was barely warm when we got it. We asked the waiter for the sauces that came with the food. He said no and argued with us until we pulled up the menu and he gave the sauces, no apology. Food tasted like it was bought ready-made from star market. Vibes were okay at best. Overall, will not be coming back and will actively tell others not to come. Insane that the place is still open.

    Newly opened spot - delicious food and drinks! Ordered biscuits, wings and mac and cheese and everything was yummy! Full bar, great espresso martinis and friendly service. Definitely check it out!

It was quite busy on a rainy weekday so I am very glad to have made a reservation. The server was great with getting to us when we arrived and checking on us initially. I think they made the chips in house and they were very thick but they didn't really stand out to me and the guac was very citrus sour. We didnt even finish it . It was wild cause it was like $16.99. The margaritas are not too sweet with the alcohol hidden within the mix. I would go just for these. The tacos were pretty good with baby tortillas. They were also quite messy and they didn't give you any utensils.... My favorite was the citrus or chipotle chicken, my friend and I both got chicken so I am honestly not sure. I finished off with the ice cream and the tiniest churro which was UBER sweet.This coming from a very very sweet oriented girlie.I would stick with tacos, drinks and maybe a cute little dessert! $$ Food 6.5 Atmosphere 7 Service 6.5 What we had Smokey pineapple margarita Guac and chips Beef birria taco Crispy shrimp taco Citrus chicken taco Chipotle chicken taco Pork carnitas Churro Sundae

With all of the visitors here for the tournament, it's no surprise that the place was hopping. We got carded at the door and made our way inside. We initially found a small table towards the back, which were the only seats available when we walked in. After waiting at the table for several minutes, some seats at the bar opened up and we seized the opportunity to sit there instead. We ordered some margaritas, namely the house margarita and a coconut margarita. They were fine. We also ordered the triple dip (chips with salsa, guac and queso), a quesadilla and the birria tacos. Even though they were extremely busy, the food came out quickly. I didn't try the quesadilla but my boyfriend devoured it, so I think it's safe to say he liked it. The birria tacos were pretty solid. Only two of them on the plate but they were super juicy and a stuffed pretty generously. I liked the triple dip the best though, particularly the queso and guacamole. It's definitely very expensive for everything we got; this is likely because the place is located in a very touristy area of the city. For just two margaritas and three food items, it cost over $100. They also had us pay for everything before we received the food, though I get that this is probably because of how many people were there for the World Cup and ordering drinks to go.
