Dickey's Barbecue Pit

First visit to Dickey's Brooksville location today 01/26/22 around lunchtime.
Ordered Ribs, Chicken wings, sandwiches and a slice of pecan pie for curbside pickup; ordered through their website.
When I arrived I called and the lady that answered the phone told me they don't do curbside, even though their site promotes it. She however, was very pleasant and said she would bring it out to me which she did.
The ribs were served dry with only a tiny container of sauce for a whole rack of ribs. The chicken wings were inedible: They were tiny jerky-like pieces that were too dried out to eat. The sandwiches were fine but nothing to write home about. The slice of pecan pie was a tiny little wedge of pie that seemed to be half the size of what was expected based on the picture on their site.
I had seen the location when shopping at Publix next door and looked forward to trying it out. Now, I did try it out and I'll never be back; a waste of 68 dollars.

First, the minute I walked in the girl behind the counter had the meanest look on her face just just starring at me until I told her why I was there without her greeting me at all. She then mumbled go to the other counter and walked off. Next, my order was completely wrong. I ordered 2 dinners with 3 meats, one of which looked like there were only 2 orders of meat because the portion was so small, so I had to order a 4th portion (it was all pretty dry with 1 baby sauce cup). This wasn't worth the price. The sides they gave me were wrong so I when I brought it their attention I was told they "were out" of the creamed spinach for both orders so they gave beans and mac and cheese for both and nothing was said when I picked up the food. It was replaced with a Cesar salad to which I have never seen such a ridiculously small portion in my life *as seen in picture* those are regular size croutons by the way so you can get an idea how small the container is. They gave me ranch as my dressing for a Cesar salad. Last but not least I ordered 2 unsweet teas and somehow they managed to give me 1 sweet, 1 unsweet. Needless to say I won't be going back.

Not the best BBQ not the worst. BBQ is pricey just about anywhere ya go but we paid over $58 after tax for the family pack. The two pounds of pulled pork was not bad at all. However the sides were skimpy. Pros- Pulled pork was tender and not dry, the sauces were great, Free Ice Cream cones… Cons- sides were just ok nothing to write home about and the portions for a family pack were skimpy. Would we give it another try? Maybe…

I've eaten here several times, but the service is relatively inconsistent. Depending on who is working when you walk in, you may get prompt service and the next time it feels like the employees have a little attitude. The food is mostly very good, the prices are high with the exception of the weekly specials. Not bad by any means, but just short of a great experience and you never really feel like a valued customer, just a transaction.

Okay let me start with the fact that the cook not sure if he is the owner, was a funny Dude. He talked me into a full rack of Ribs. I got the onion string side. Swore they were the best around. They were very good. Good portion, priced fairly. It is nice to go someplace and have a crew that shows enthusiasm.
Anyways, I enjoyed the meal and even had left overs. I also enjoyed the atmosphere which is important. See ya next time!!!

$60 worth of food 24 wings that barely has any meat on them. All of them the same size as the picture. A slice of cheese (that I paid 50 cents extra for) thrown on the wrapper of my brisket which was the only good thing about the order. I have brought up my issues time and time again by calling in and complaining only to be heard by a deaf ear. You will not get anymore of my money and I recommend that everyone else avoid them like that the plague.

The food was delicious. My sister and I ordered their special, brisket sandwich with 2 sides; jalapeño pinto beans & fries, and a drink with an extra water cup, to split for lunch and then got ourselves a free vanilla ice cream cone. Plenty to eat under $20 including the tip. Very fast, we ordered and ate in about 30 minutes.

Came for lunch today with a friend. We ordered, and our food was ready for us rather quickly. We had the ribs and brisket. The ribs were very good. The meat was tasty and fell off of the bone. Pleasantly surprised at how much meat was on the ribs. The brisket was tender and tasted great. We tried 3 sides also: coleslaw, baked beans, and the fried okra. All 3 sides were delicious. This restaurant has Coke products to drink. Also, there is an ice cream cone machine for free for a sweet dessert. We will definitely return!
