About this business
The Pit offers some of the best barbecue in Raleigh. Set in a restored early 20th Century meatpacking warehouse, the restaurant carries on the North Carolina barbecue tradition by serving full-hog, pit-cooked pork, and other barbecue essentials. But The Pit is more than a generic barbecue restaurant: it combines the generous portions of classic meat-loving joints with some surprises. The pork is free-range, and guests can enjoy barbecued tofu, wines, cocktails, and a comprehensive list of bourbons.

My baby back ribs were extremely dry and hard to even get off the bone; however my friend had a different experience the same night with her ribs. I was jealous. Excellent fried okra! Excellent biscuits and hush puppies!
Hush puppies were great! Cornbread and honey butter ok. I don't care for the dry smoked baby back ribs or vinegary sauces but that's just me. Fried chicken excellent. Potato salad, cole slaw, mac & cheese, BBQ beans all really good.
Always good service. Food is always excellent. Tarheels suck.
We drive about and hour and a half just to eat at THE PIT~! Food's AMAZING! Like nonother! Met the Manager Robert last night. He really made us feel at home! We visit as often as possible.
The best barbecue I have eaten not cooked at home !!!!
Outstanding food and service! Definitely will be back next time I'm in the area!
Family Style is the way to go! Very good food, and the banana pudding is amazing.
Made a special trip to the Pit when in Raleigh just for their baby back ribs, but they were out. So disappointed 😔 made friends at the bar thought. Next time I think about going I'll call first!
Business response:
Sorry about being out of ribs. Please call and ask for Robert when you call and I'll make sure we take care of you.
Nice place for lunch Good service and always good food
