Thanks. R&R it is.

Granted, I don't live there, but I drive through/in it quite a bit, and maybe because distances in western Colorado are a bit different, but I don't flinch on a 30 mile drive. Over there, that's like a world away.
this is 100% true. I lived like 6 minutes from the highway..some people were like "wow thats far to the highway" ummmm????? And forget it if you want people in say Lehi to meet in SLC...its like asking them to drive to Alaska... its like 35 min...Quote:

Used to live not far from there and always wanted to try it. Heard mixed reviews from friends.Quote:

I didn’t really like the brisket either. I got the pulled chicken once when they were out of pulled pork, and I mostly get that now. Think it’s much better than the brisket. In general I think R&R is probably the best in SLC, but it definitely doesn’t stand up to the real stuff.Quote:

No, but a friend who lived right there said the wings were great, cheap, and they had $3 big cans of PBR. Might be worth a bike ride to this summer for investigation.
I’ve eaten there a couple times. Think of it as if RnR, but more authentic looking with less flavor. RnR is still the winner for me. Rod and Rich (twins that own it-I’m pretty sore that’s their names-are super nice guys too).Quote:

Eva - Fried cauliflower was ordered multiple times. Shrimp hominy and the St Patty’s corned beef was spot on.
Slapfish - Surf N Turf Burger. Craving that lobster cheeseburger at the moment.
Taqueria 27 - Duck Confit along with the Steelhead tacos were crushed. Don’t skip the grilled Shrimp Tostada Bites.
Goodwood - nachos suck. Cheap chips and apparently layering the cheese is out of the question. Smoked chicken, Meh. Went for the combo platter of baby back ribs, burnt ends and turkey based on the strong recommendation of the server. None of it was memorable, well except the turkey. Do not get the turkey. Ruth’s Pecan Sweet Potato saved the train wreck.
Went to Afghan Kitchen for lunch on Friday. Hadn't been in a while, damn that place is good. Love how seedy it looks on the outside.
Semi-related, what's the deal with Smiths no longer taking visa? Their claim that it's high fees seems fishy since they're still taking Amex.
Mall walker when did you last go to 565 firehouse? It got new owners a couple years ago, and i think it's the best BBQ here by a wide margin. Not impressed by R and R or Kaiser, Pat's burnt ends are delicious but otherwise I'd say 565 is better.
interesting, it was probably almost 4 years since i’ve been there, so maybe I gotta give that another go...Quote:

I live a couple blocks from 565, went last a few weeks ago. I dunno if I'd say it's the best in the valley, but it's definitely good. If you were gonna make a top 5 list, I'd put it on there.Quote:
