Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Stone Mountain

So, when a bad review is necessary, I like to preface the review with phrases like 'when a bad review is necessary... ', and reasons that could have affected my review. In this case, nothing affected my review. So, the first thing in noticed was that the parking lot was empty... and it was Sunday a day on which a restaurant of good quality and value would be coverd up. After ordering a 3 meat plate with Mac and cheese and beans, I saw the 'preparer ' remove a tiny portion of three meats from some Saran wrap... and it was placed on a tray. Period. That was the extent of the prep. I figured that a warming period might be involved in order to achieve a warmer piece of... nope. From Saran wrap to tray. If you notice in the picture there is 0% steam coming from the tiny portions. Next, tiny portions. Uh, the portions were tiny. For $17.00 for one plate, I expected larger portions. Jim and Nick 's give larger portions. Sonny 's (FOR JIM 'S SAKE SONNY 'S, PEOPLE!!!! has larger portions! Dessert. So, I didn 't want to spend another dime at the company. The wife, however, wanted dessert. What she didn 't want was a chipped tooth. What she didn 't want was an impossibly hard marshmellow rice Krispy Square. What she got was the impossibly hard marshmellow rice Krispy square. I suppose no marshmallows were used in the creation of this product. Other notables: The Brunswick stew tasted like a mustard-flavored vegetable medley. This was probably a Tampa Bay Stew. The beans tasted EXACTLY like homestyle Busch beans, so... there 's that. That gnarly, room temperature, square of disappointment was no excuse for a piece bread. Just my observation. Sorry for the harsh browns, but there this is all truth here. While the presentation was nice, that was all that was nice. I was not pleased with this experience. So, in a nutshell, the price i paid for what I received was not worth it and I can not compare this restaurant to the likes of Jim and Nick 's, Smokey Bones, Smokin ' po boys, or Mo

The food was really good especially the brisket I wish I knew to ask for bbq sauce because none was included but the food was still good! I tried the greens, Mac n cheese and brisket sandwich. My son tried the ribs along with the spinach and lemon pepper wings. He also grabbed some sweets and we had no complaints. The staff was welcoming. Clean place. The line was long but it moved pretty quick!

Ate a meal of pork ribs (well done), chicken wings, baked potato, and salad. Great ambience. Great crowd. Great place. Clean. Courteous and prompt service. Will return again and again.

They were sold out of ribs, chicken smoked turkey, on Friday night. I had brisket pulled pork. The brisket was tender and flavorful, the pulled pork just average. Good selection of sides. The ordering line moved slowly with only 6 parties ordering and 3 staff preparing the orders.

Food was tasty, but they messed up 2 out of the 4 things we ordered, plus the portions were tiny for the amount we paid. I also think the baked beans were undercooked. Now, the brisket and pulled pork were great. But for what they charge I expected twice as much. The ribs were dry. Potato salad was good though. Too many good BBQ places for me to give this place another go.
