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.

What folks are saying

Based on the 50 most recent Google reviews
Golfers praise well-kept greens, gentle fairways, and staff who go above and beyond to make players feel at home. It’s a favorite for those who like to walk, with relaxed rounds and mountain scenery that lingers. Café food gets loyal nods, especially the homemade cones. The course is always under steady improvement, with fairways still blending into rough in early season and a rare patchy spot after storms, but most find the sunny, peaceful rhythm a treat. One or two grumbled about mowing timing and the occasional slow pace, but most return happily for the welcoming community.
