Prayer flags move in the wind and the sound of a creek runs just beyond the patio, with steam rising from pho broth behind the big windows. Most here are locals dodging the crowds and hungry hikers, arms sunburned and boots muddy, unfurl over bowls of noodles and beer.

🥟 Handmade momos—choose from beef, chicken, veggie, or 'swimming' in broth

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.

Local Insights
🌊 Creekside Tables: Arrive early on weekends if you want to claim a table right by the water.
🥟 Off-Menu Momos: Ask for 'swimming' momos—served in broth—not always listed.
🥤 House Chili Crisp: The housemade chili crisp on each table kicks up any bowl and is beloved by regulars.
🧋 Bubble Tea Secret: Passionfruit bubble tea isn’t always on the board but is worth requesting if you see the supplies behind the counter.

What folks are saying

Based on the 50 most recent Google reviews
Tibet Pho earns wide praise for its flavorful pho, handmade dumplings, and careful execution of both Vietnamese and Tibetan staples. Guests consistently highlight the relaxing creekside setting, friendly and fast service, and the freshness of ingredients. The variety of vegetarian and vegan options are a hit, though some diners wish for more gluten-free sauces and slightly expanded vegan selections. A handful of visitors note the simple plate presentations, but nearly all agree the food and setting stand out as some of the best around Woodstock.
