Kristen Lindblom BouchardOctober 25, 2014Smoked shrimp and grits is delicious! It's the perfect small plate. The pulled pork comes with no sauce on it but it's a condiment on the table - which is just the way we like it and it was fantastic!
Michelle RochonDecember 9, 2012We stop every time we are in town. Big bricks has a much better wait staff than the original bricks with the same great food. Best pizzas and I love the goat cheese appitizers
Pulled pork is great and the outdoor seating is lovely. It attracts a lot of families, however, so there will be unruly children to endure.
Andrew DobneyAugust 4, 2014Fancy in the front (bar area), more "family friendly" in the back. We shared a pizza which was very good. Would come back if in the area.
Scott YoderSeptember 21, 2013Had the bbq sampler platter. Ton of food with pulled pork being the best thing on the plate. Lots of smoke, great flavor, and the sauce has a nice kick.
Mike WilderOctober 23, 2015Service industry discount Mondays: $1 Pork Tacos, $2 Brisket Tacos, Buy One Get One Pizza, Nachos $3 Off, $4 all drafts, $10 Brisket sandwich, $4 well drinks.
The Shrimp & Grits were right on. The SweetHeat and Red Planet Pizzas we fabulous as well.
Rudimus Radimus RamulusJune 28, 2016HOLY HELL THE MAC n CHEESE WITH BURNT ENDS!!! Tell your bartender (Scott or Brian) I sent you xo
Matthew RobertsJune 30, 2012Great place in the Heart of Northcenter. Awesome pizza and ambiance. Will be back.
KateDecember 23, 2012Great pizza and BBQ so get the best of both worlds and order the BBQ chicken pizza.
Diana SpearNovember 12, 2012Get the brisket or burger. I'm from Texas, and I think it's pretty legit!
Eat the macaroni and cheese as a side. It's incredible.
They need to get their beer garden issue resolved. Not seating anyone at 9:00 on a Friday? I was so looking forward to their beer garden but 3 for 3 they wouldn't seat us. Oh well, Mrs Murphy's!
TheDaryoushSeptember 28, 2012Try some slutty ravioli and if you don't get the smoked shrimp and grits you're a total idiot.
