Lookout Hill (in the old Biscuit BBQ joint) ....the menu

verucasalt

it looks just like Biscuit but with a bunch of Whiskey added to the mix and a new interior. So it is like Biscuit rebranded. I will say I didn't eat there but then again the menu looks so uninspiring too. I wanted something fun and different to go in here.

I haven't eaten there yet either, but I was kind of happy it's still BBQ - we don't really have much BBQ in this area.

Had dinner with here on Friday night. I was with a group of six, so expected it might take a while to sit. We were told 1/2 an hour... an hour and a half later, we were finally seated. They have a good bar area to hang out in, so it wasn't that big a deal -- great bourbon selection (although they are pretty small pours) and good beer list. And I don't really blame the restaurant for the wait -- they had 3 tables scoped out for us but one couple took like 45 minutes to leave after they'd paid their bill. I feel like maybe LH could have asked them to finish their drinks at the bar or even at another 2-top, but whatever. To make up for it though, they comped us two order of what was quite possibly the best mac and cheese EVER (and I am somewhat of a M&C connoisseur). Otherwise, everyone was pretty happy with their meals. I got the pulled pork with a side of corn pudding -- each were very, very good. The sandwich was moist and well-seasoned with really good spicy slaw on it and came on a really tasty roll. Corn pudding = super delish. So all in all, thumbs up for Lookout Hill.

My wife and I had dinner there on Saturday night. We went at 10. We didn't have to wait to be seated outside. The burguer that I had was really good and the chicken sandwich that my wife ate was also really good. The waiter was really friendly and the beer, perfect. Definetly, was good.

I need some context before stepping in that place.

Can someone who agrees that Biscuit absolutely sucked give an opinion on this place?

yes, please. i thought biscuit was _disgusting_, especially, natch, their biscuits.

Well, I thought Biscuit was horrible, and as I wrote in an earlier thread, I had mixed feelings on this place. Kielbasa and chicken, good. Sides, delicious. Brisket and pulled pork, tasteless and full of fat...

So, there you go... Meh... I dunno...

Fi and ate there the other night. Mind you we hated Bisquit but felt this place deserved a try.

The food was better than Bisquit. The menu is set up kind of oddly. You order all your meat by the 1/4 pound and then sides are an extra charge. We had the beans (ok), Corn pudding (delicioso) and the brandied yams (very good).

It was weird because my fi ordered the brisket and chicken and i ordered the keilbasa but it comes out on one tray/plate. So it is served family style. I know this isn't everybody's thing so i thought it was important to note that. The sides come in small dishes.

I enjoyed the keilbasa, the corn pudding and yams. Fi enjoyed his chicken and brisket.

I would go again in the future. It was better food than Bisquit. I wasn't blown away by it but it was good.

Brisket (the lean cut!) was inedible. 90% fat.
However the pulled pork was good.
Short ribs were cold and dry.
