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.

Fat Cow Korean BBQ delights many with its fresh, flavorful meats, unique ramen bar, and friendly staff creating a social and comfortable dining experience. The self-grilling stations and convenient tablet ordering receive praise. Some guests find the meat flavors inconsistent and the space cramped, with complaints about limited sauce options and occasional slow service or sold-out items. Overall, positive reviews highlight quality and atmosphere, but several point to growing pains in this new establishment.
