Central Texas BBQ with brisket, ribs, tacos, & dessert
"The Pit Room’s newest location in Memorial City has made dessert a true priority with a dedicated dessert bar featuring homemade ice cream, which can be loaded with toppings for a scoopable situation or paired with freshly baked cookies for an ice cream sandwich. Cool down with cold scoops of sweet cream, malt chocolate, pistachio, strawberry, or birthday cake, and mix and match with cookie flavors like chocolate chip, snickerdoodle, and red velvet white chocolate." - Marcy de Luna
"The Pit Room has expanded its barbecue reign to the Memorial neighborhood. Like the original location in Montrose, they serve smoked meats with a Tex-Mex flare, and both the BBQ and the chicken tacos are still worth ordering. Lines of people snake towards the front door as team members pile on the brisket and giant smoked beef ribs. But here, the covered patio is big enough to be its own restaurant. It's the perfect place to hang out with a big group of friends or your dog. Go to The Pit Room when you want beef ribs and brisket tacos or want to have your ‘cue with a pilsner on a patio." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas, julie takahashi
"There’s plenty of space for your kids to sprawl out at The Pit Room in Memorial. Take your tray of smoked BBQ to the patio and let your kids roam free while you cut into some brisket. For a post-zoomies snack, you can hand them a chicken taco that’s 90% melted cheese or a scoop of strawberry ice cream from the indoor dessert stand." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene, julie takahashi
"A Michelin-recognized barbecue spot combining its annual Go Texan Day with a rodeo-style celebration from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Friday, February 28 at Montrose and Memorial locations; the family-friendly patio takeover includes live music, a mini-animal petting zoo, cotton candy spinning, the full barbecue and bar menu, and a crawfish boil." - Brittany Britto Garley
"This barbecue haven brings the flavors of Central Texas to Memorial, offering a similar menu of tasty ‘que and sides as its original Montrose location. The laid-back joint with counter service boasts perfectly smoked brisket, pork ribs, and smoked turkey, alongside savory accompaniments like charro beans, macaroni and cheese, and elote. For dessert, a homemade ice cream bar lets diners customize their sweet treats with a selection of cookies and toppings." - Marcy de Luna
