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.

The Dutch is known for its welcoming staff and bustling tavern energy, with servers like Chris and Arielle earning locals’ loyalty. Guests praise the Dutch Onion Soup, schnitzel, sandwiches, and the variety of draft beers. Most enjoy the lively music, historic atmosphere, and family-friendly service, while some report occasional misses with food consistency or slower service at peak hours. Desserts—especially the maple walnut cheesecake—win regular raves. The Dutch stays a local favorite for both comfort food and group get-togethers.
