Haley's Review of Riot BBQ
Riot BBQ on South Delaware feels like a backyard cookout run by a Top Chef, because it is. Chef Manny Barella and pitmaster Patrick Klaiber have teamed up to blend Monterrey flavors with Texas-style smoke, and the results are seriously craveable.
The brisket steals the show: tender, deeply smoky, and finished with Barella’s bold spice rub. Get it solo or wrapped in buttery Raquelita tortillas. The pulled pork brings heat with ancho, guajillo, and morita chiles, and the al pastor ribs are sticky, sweet, and slightly charred in all the right ways.
Even the sides are insanely good! Think crunchy pepita-macha slaw and banana pudding served in a jar that tastes just like childhood (but better). Every bite feels intentional.
It’s barbecue with heart, history, and just the right amount of heat. Riot BBQ isn’t just a meal, it’s a moment worth lining up for.

Based on the 50 most recent Google reviews
Lago East Bank is widely praised for its top-tier Italian dishes, notably the Alfredo, lobster gnocchi, and arancini. Reviewers highlight the friendly and attentive service, vibrant atmosphere with live music, and quality cocktails. Outdoor patio and lake views add to the appeal. Few critiques mention occasional dryness in dishes like gnocchi and inconsistent service experiences, but are outweighed by the overall positive feedback.
