Let’s get straight to The Pit with this review.
I ordered the skillet cornbread as my starter and I was disappointed the cornbread was very dry, hard and the texture was gritty and crumbly.
Honestly I believe it was over cooked.
I took one small bit and sent it back.
Now on to the Entree, I ordered to BBQ chicken with Collard Greens, Mac & Cheese with the Sweet Potato casserole.
The BBQ chicken was very juicy, Smokey and delicious, the house sauce however had a strong vinegar flavor that over powerful the sweet taste.
Next up is the side dishes, the collard greens was very good and tasty.
The Mac & Cheese is cheesy but lack flavor completely.
The Sweet Potato casserole was a winner, not overly sweet which like and it was so creamy with small pieces of pecans for an added crunch, which was yummy.
This place is a Must Try!

Thank you for your feedback about the cornbread and the great review. Sincerely, The Pit Management

We came in for a late lunch and not crowded at all. We had the fried catfish sandwich with potato salad and a bbq sandwich with fried okra. The catfish must have been great because my wife finished it before I could eat half my sandwich! The fried okra was plentiful and perfectly fried and hot when served. The biscuits and hush puppies were not expected but dang… so good. Very pleased we stopped in from out of town, highly recommend a visit!

Thank you for the great review.

My family and I had a great dining experience at The Pit.
Located in the warehouse district of Raleigh, this restaurant never disappoints.
The majority of the menu options are barbecue.
We had both the pulled pork and beef brisket.
There are about a dozen different sides to choose from.
We appreciated the complimentary biscuits and hush puppies Making reservations helps for easy seating in either a booth or table.
The service is good and fast.
The staff works as a team to meet your needs.
Parking can be an issue as there are very few free on the street spots.
There is adequate parking in several lots and street spots but you must pay with an app.
