Customer Reviews
If barbecue is about the smoke, pit beef is about the fire. Pit beef to perfection. I’ve been coming here since before Andy & Brenda Wargo bought it 42 years ago. It’s the standard against which I’d compare pit beef. I’ve not found better anywhere. Homemade rolls perfectly frame the sandwich. The rest of the menu is excellent as well. Delicious soups. Terrific fresh fried oysters in season. A very credible crabcake. Pit turkey or ham. Down home. Not pretentious. You’re extra fortunate if you get George as your waiter. (Pit beef cooked on Fridays & Saturdays. Save the oysters for a Wednesday night.)
I haven't been here in 15 years and I can tell you the pit beef is still fantastic! The salad bar seemed a little cramped in hard to Dish up yourself, but it's a good addition to any meal. The horseradish that I got on my sandwich was hot! So fantastic! The service was as you'd expect from a family-owned restaurant. Very good and home like. I won't wait another 15 years. This will be a monthly stop for me. The pit beef is only available Friday and Saturdays.
Delicious pit beef, pork and turkey! Interior is a bit old fashioned (for my taste). Service was quick and attentive.
The vibe fells like the town invited you dinner at their Grandparents house in the restaurant. The food was fresh and delicious.
Love coming to Wargo’s. Incredibly friendly staff. Been coming here since I was a kid. I know there’s other things on the menu but I always have to order the pit ham sandwich.
