“ Best BBQ ever!!! can't wait for the re-opening!!! very kind staff & always get takeout when I've dined here as my family demands it! oh, and the white sauce!!! ”
“ We wanted to check them out after being on Diners, Drives, and Dives! I enjoyed the food, brisket the most. Very tender. Great for a quick stop through and experience. We called after reading all the reviews. They answered the phone and said they closed at 5. They also accepted card and cash. ”
“ This is a neighborhood gem! The meat is so flavorful- I had the pulled chicken sandwich with amazing pickles and Mac and cheese. There was lots of meat on the sandwich. The service was excellent and clean. I will be back soon! ”
“ Still great! But breakfast is better during the week. I had to ask them to make coffee. They were very nice and did but I felt like I was putting them out. $5 brisket egg and cheese is the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. They kill it every time. They open at 6 Tuesday-Friday. At 10 on the weekends. ”
“ Ohhhh, baby. This place is GOOD! Upon learning that my local smokehouse had permanently closed, I went on a hunt for BBQ joints near my husband's job so he could pick up some take-out on his way home. Locale BBQ Post fit the bill. We called early to order ribs and sides, and by 1:15 they were already sold out of jalapeno creamed corn. So, we ordered a rack of ribs (to share), a side of mac and cheese, some cole slaw, and the meal came with a piece of cornbread. Everything I ate was awesome. The ribs were extremely tender and fell right off the bone. With a little sauce, they were perfection. The cornbread was also incredible. It was a little dry for my liking, but the sweet butter that came with it soaked right into the bread and made it taste incredible. The macaroni and cheese was pretty plain, but with a little crushed black pepper, it turned into magic. Even the cole slaw was good - and I am not a big cole slaw person. I finished my meal and was absolutely stuffed to the brim, and purely content. I will absolutely be eating here again!! ”
“ So, what they lack in customer service they sure make up with in their delicious food. Mid afternoon Saturday it was quiet. There were two people ( could be the owners?) working and 3 customers. We were not greeted and it took ages to be served one at a time. I almost walked out. I ordered half ribs and half chicken to take home and it is outstanding. ( also chose their 'the sauce'). It came with crunchy fresh pickle and teeny side of coleslaw. Again. Outstanding. Get a smile, greet your customers and I'm sure you will see the difference. ”
“ Mm mm mm. Call me Frank Underwood, and call the owner of this place Freddy. These ribs were delicious. Locale just opened up about a year ago. It's located in scenic Little Italy, and features a beautiful outdoor picnic table area, perfect for enjoying a Black and Mild while you eat, that reminds me of the Greenhill Deli picnic area; just less scenic, and a little more gritty. I got the wings and ribs. The wings were just so-so- too much bone, but the ribs were amazing. I really should learn that when you go to a rib place, you order just the ribs. As a side-note, the wings had barbecue sauce on them; not buffalo. The ribs were unbelievably meaty. The sauce was a little lacking (you have to put most of it on yourself), but it couldn't detract from how meaty the actual ribs were. The main gripe I have with ribs in general is that there isn't enough meat. Not a problem at Locale's. The food was also delivered ridiculously fast. Minor complaints include the lack of soda options, and the substitution of coleslaw for corn bread. WTF Locale's. If I WAS Frank Underwood, I would have murdered you by faking your suicide by leaving you in a running car with the garage closed after you drank too much. Yeah, give me corn bread next time I'm here. ”
