First time was better than the second time. Today's brisket sandwich tasted like it was sitting in…read moreau jus too long or it was reheated from yesterday. Maybe both? The texture and cut were also completely different than previously. Mac n cheese not good today. Tasted like a watered down stouffers frozen dinner without the yummy burnt edges. I may give this a third try at some point, like when it's busier or later in the day when the meat is fresh. $14 for the sandwich and side wasn't terrible for the portion size, which was larger today as well. Maybe they were moving out the old stuff. Who knows? Better luck next time.

Skimpy, mislabeled, and dry. I got the chicken platter with collard greens. Actually, though you…read morecouldn't tell from the menu, the platter is just the sandwich but instead of chips it comes with a small side and a drink. The sandwich, which I got with Carolina sauce, was still dry and had way more bread than bbq. The collards had good flavor. Overall, I was disappointed with the quantity and the quality. I've heard the Mac and cheese bowl is way more food but similarly mediocre. Don't think I'd go here again. If I did, it definitely wouldn't be for a "platter"

Always a pleasure. Lady Matilda is the vet in our family, so we enjoy going here for a hearty meal…read more She is a Texan, so her taste in barbecue and brisket is, by her own admission, a little snobby. I'm fine so long as it isn't bland or dry. I appreciate the customer service and the respect behind the counter of the chow line. I appreciate the interaction between staff and customers that is very different than the "eyes-down, keep moving" feel at most restaurants. One of the complaints that I'll push back on is that the walls are covered in theme, like a 1990s theme restaurant that covers every square inch of wall space with distraction. The thing I see is that the company takes pride in local service, photos with stories and meaning, keeping their mission in line of sight at all times. I always push for more women on those walls, but at least this location has done a much better job adding women to its living gallery/museum of service. Of course, this gives me a sense of pride when Lady Matilda is recognized for her service and fed well for a reasonable price. I enjoy the food as much as the experience.

They have tons of options from baked chicken, fried chicken, empanadas, pernil, stews, etc.. I ordered the pernil and it came with arroz con gondules, plantains, and cabbage. Everything was seasoned to perfection and had enough salt. The pork was insane!!!! I can't even describe how luscious it was. Even the cabbage stood out! Not over cooked and had a ton of flavor. Service was excellent. I sometimes say "I wish I could bring this place back with me", but this time I mean it more than ever. Tastes like family. Love it.

Over the weekend, I headed over to City Island to try this new stand. City Island is not…read morenecessarily where I would go specifically to eat, but I've changed my mind. My understanding is that this stand is courtesy of the folks at Mangia Qui. I was drawn because of their name as well as the fact that there's a dearth of good barbeque in the greater Harrisburg area. There are basically two protein options and two potato options. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich and the sweet potato fries. To drink, I ordered a sweet tea. I felt the sandwich was well worth the $5.00. There was a good amount of pork on the sandwich and a decent amount of sauce (but it would have been nice to have a little extra sauce available on the side). The fries were frozen, but were cooked well and were served crispy. I would stay away from the sweet tea. There was way too much lemon in it. Definitely a nice addition to City Island.

Our whole dining experience was very pleasant, from Judah who took our order to the staff tha prepared it, everyone made us feel appreciated!! Don and Tiana (sorry if I spelled it incorrectly) went out of their way to make us feel at home. Don told us about his experience in the Navy, as my wife had mentioned to him that we were there before our son left for boot camp training in the army reserves. He also told us about all community services your restaurant provides, amazing! This will definitely be one of our "must stop" food places every time we visit! Keep up the extremely excellent service!! Thank you all for what you do! P.S. sorry again, for not taking more pictures of our food, we were hungry again!!
