M.J. Reed: For those with island palates, try the Chinese BBQ, Emerald Chicken or the Carnitas (think Kalau Pork & Lomi Lomi intertwined). But in the end, it's *really* all about the Snickerdoodle.
Erica Dixon: Perfect combo: jade red chicken or pork, jerk fried rice, jerk chicken, black beans! Ftw!!!
Sara Ziolkowski-Bredeson: My combo of choice...Jade Red Chicken, Carnitas Burrito, fried rice & beans. Mmm!

Julia Estrebor: Long queue is worth the wait. Attend the tour to the bbq pit while waiting. I love the pulled pork and brisket and their spicy bbq sauce.
Shiqi Yang: Pulled pork and ribs are have to tries!!
Victoria Kelley: Tried everything and it was all outstanding! The brisket is just melt in your mouth phenomenal, the pulled pork super moist, and the lamb neck so tender and unlike any bbq I've had. Can't go wrong!
Christian Miller: Awesome! The nachos and pulled pork were super delicious. The daytime waitress was really friendly and fun to talk to. Well be back soon!
Brittany Haag: Everything on the menu is DELICIOUS! Get the side of Mac & Cheese an add Pulled Pork on top! A flight of moonshine is a must... especially the house made Apple Pie Moonshine!
Naoi Celeste: So good. So good. So good. Must have the brisket, pulled pork, and bootlegger burger. Best find I've made in a long time!

JK Grence: Southwestern chicken fried steak (with their righteous pork green chili on top) is THE thing to get. Good pancakes, too.
Phoenix New Times: With hearty eats, huge portions, and old-fashioned prices, it has a small-town feel. Southwestern country fried steak, smothered in spicy pork chili verde, is clearly the star dish here. Read more.
Angela Castro: Anything with the pork green chili is great, especially their chicken fried steak. Don't go there if you're on a diet😉
Laura Ory: The tortilla soup is cheap, excellent and filling. Add some pork or chicken, pico and cheese on top.
Luke White: It's the Chipotle of enchiladas. Fast, fresh, delicious, cheap. Love the green chile pork enchiladas with pickled onions, cream and cotija on top.
Jaina: Green chili pork and short rib enchiladas!

Scott Proper: Exceptionally good. Pulled pork is spectacular!
Jean Marie: Perhaps the best pork that they braise and slow roast for 24 hours that I've ever tasted.
Men's Health Mag: There's plenty of great Mexican food in the Phoenix-Scottsdale area, but this one wins thanks to its pork pibil and mole as well as its murals designed by local painters and graffiti artists.

Jesse Thomas Foster: The pork belly buns are easily the best dish I've had in Phoenix.
Phoenix New Times: Lunch's warm duck salad, pork belly buns, okonomiyaki and panko-fried soft shell crab sandwich are so off-the-charts good you'll be pinching yourself at the prices (hovering around $10). Read more.
Johanna Sperzagni: Sea bass & pork belly are worth it. The octopus fritter special was very ordinary. Oysters were good but pricey for only two pieces. I would come back for the warm dishes...they are more fulfilling.
