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
The Bourbon Street Barrel Room earns praise for authentic New Orleans-inspired dishes, generous portions, and vibrant atmosphere. Guests consistently commend the quality of jambalaya, beignets, and cocktails. Service is mostly lauded as friendly and attentive, though a few note slow drink service during busy times and some discomfort with an admin fee for non-cash payments. The lively ambiance paired with fast service makes it a go-to spot for casual Cajun dining.
