Came here once with family and not exactly what I expected. Seems like a lot of regulars come here but if you are expecting authentic BBQ, you will be disappointed. The restaurant is old and everything kind of felt sticky. We came for dinner and the whole restaurant was hot and stuffy. The food was okay, everything was covered in bbq sauce. Honestly, I could have made better bbq at home. Service was great, prices were okay, but I was disappointed because I was expecting real bbq.

Good food and even better service. The last couple of times that i have been there, I’ve been given amazing service and friendliness from Cory who is an amazing server. Appreciate the knowledge of treating the customer with respect.

Good service but food is pretty bad. Fried chicken with no batter? It’s just oily chicken skin. Everything is just over salty. Even the salad was sad sorry to say.

I usually order a Merchant Plate with Tritip. Great deal for lunch and generous portions.

I can’t speak in the BBQ, but this chicken fried steak is one of the best things I’ve ever put in my mouth.

Great food I enjoy coming here regularly. I’ve had many great meals here one bad experience here and they made it right and fixed it. I will continue to come back and support this restaurant because they handled it well. Shows that they do care about their customers. I’ve been back several times after and it’s been very good, consistent. If your looking for some great bbq this is the place. I also enjoy the breakfast. The trip tip is nice and tender, one of my favorites next to the ribs.

This places is a place that I was so use to just driving by. But one day the big pig attracted me and my hungry gf. And we love the BBQ Pitt. They have the best hamburger I have ever had. Wen I bite into it I close my eyes in satisfaction every time. Oh man and the taster choice is a mans meal

How do you call yourselves the«Bar B Q Pit» and not even have a Bbq Pit on the premises? Good was right out of the box. I would not recommend or be back for a second visit. The«rib eye» sandwich was described by the waitress as being a piece of carne asada. I give it 2 stars, and that’s being generous.

NOTBBQ!!! Just warning those travelers who have a craving for good BBQ. I was traveling back home from coaching in Stockton this weekend and had a craving for BBQ. I saw the name of this place and decent star rating on Unilocal,so I went for it. The service was friendly, so they don’t get one star, but the food… Ok so the food…:( Who likes TV dinners? The best part was that they had Coke products! The garlic bread was good. I got the«famous spare ribs» let me start with this, I made a huge mistake while walking in, I didn’t smell smoke! I immediately should have turned around, what good BBQ place doesn’t have the smoker smell? So the ribs had no real smoke flavor, no smoke ring near the bark. While we’re talking about the bark, bare minimum seasoning. Uhhhhhh and the sauce was just ok. I felt bad for the pig, these ribs did not do him justice. I also got the mash potato’s which tasted like they came from a box not a potato. In the end I spent 18 dollars on a dinner that tasted like a 3 dollar TV dinner. If your looking for BBQ keep driving. BUT it does seem like a decent diner, and other reviews seem to think the burgers are good. But I wouldn’t recommend going here.

Went here because my cousin said it was good and it was really close to his place. Right off the bat it looked home-y and fun. The service was adequate and the menu simple. Food arrived promptly and was perfectly prepared. Would definitely recommend for a good barbecue meal!

We were in town for the weekend, and some friends told us that this place had the best ribs in town, so we had to try it. My lady had actually never had ribs in her life. How you get to be a grown woman without having ribs, I don’t know, but this was a great place to get her started. She got the beef ribs and chicken combo, and loved it. Nice and meaty, with a great sauce. I had a rack of pork ribs, same thing. We needed a place for breakfast the next morning, so why mess with a good thing, right? Breakfast was also very good. I had the chicken fried steak. Perfect. I got the biscuit to go with it, and it was a very good biscuit, made fresh each morning. The staff is very friendly, and you’ll see the owner roaming the dining room on a regular basis, making sure everyone is happy. I like that. Lots of regulars, since most people there seemed to know each other. If a place has lots of return customers, you know it’s good.

I have in all fairness only eaten breakfast here. So BBQ I have no idea. I love BBQ and will drive out of my way for great BBQ. If that tells you anything. Red and white, that’s the décor color choice, coka-cola proud here. It’s a diner, it’s got a breakfast bar, it’s got your menu options typical for the area. It’s got locals coming and going. So in all this is a decent option for the Merced area. Not expensive, quick, friendly, and clean.

Good food good people good prices good God gurtie I’m stuffed! The chicken was so so however it the tri tip and the ribs were pretty good the baby back ribs were really good. As usual i get the sauce on the side it was mild and very basic. The dinner plates came with really good vegetables and roll, and also your choice of fries potatoes or rice pilaf.

Due to the lack of, well, anything food wise in Merced, we decided to try it as we both are Tri-Tip fans. My BF had a meal which was BBQ w/Babyback Ribs, then he got a side of the Tri-Tip for us to share/take home to make sandwiches with later. It was a Saturday so I got the petite prime rib medium rare… The ONLY thing that either of us liked was the steamed veggies. They were absolutely DELISH. But for $ 40 total… that is a sad thing to get excited about. His chicken was bland & super dry. The ribs weren’t exactly babybacks, like 3 regular ribs — my family is from the South, I know ribs & I know babyback ribs. He said they were ‘ok’. As was the Tri-tip…(which was much improved when I doctored it all up at home in sandwiches for us that night). My prime rib was LITERALLY50% FAT. I’m not talking about a decent marbeling which all good cuts of meat need to have good flavor/tendernesst. I mean, 50% of the meat I was served was huge area’s of fat. MINIMUM50% of it. I’m not exactly sure how a cook or a server would be comfortable serving a cut of meat that was majority fat… I gave them 2 stars ONLY because we liked our server & it was clean. However for the entire restaurant, there was only one poor girl working all the tables. We’d been looking forward to trying this place but it was a huge disappointment and we won’t be going back.
