Great food!. Today was the first time I had been to Wilson's BBQ. A co-worker told me about the place and I must say it is down right good. I do wish their was more or a varity of side dishes. I would have loved to dip some homemade fries into the awsome sauce. If you haven't been...go!

Great Neighborhood Joint. I live in the same neighborhood as Wilsons and am so happy it is here. There are not a lot of menu options, but that is ok because the food that they have available is outstanding. Instead of trying to do a million different things, they stick to what they know best and do it well. The workers have always been nothing but pleasant to me, even helping me decide what I could get with the little bit of cash I had on me the first time I was there, and the prices are very reasonable.

The potato salad is what motivated me to come on and write a review. It is to.die.for. So delicious, just like everything else from Wilsons.

One Dam Good Barbecue. I got to know mr. Wilson, and his family by living in the northside on chateu street, back in the 90's, . The place sits off near Allegheny General Hospital, on the corner of Taylor, and Buenavista street. Is just a little place, a bit run down, but, to me, is just charm to the area. I will agree that sometimes they do get a bit raffled if you just keep adding to you order,instead of ording all at once never did understand why,maybe due to the heat leaveing the pit., but who cares. If you talk to the man, he is very informitive on the ways he orders his select woods he uses to smoke his ribs, and chicken.as any other question you may have to ask. The ribs and chicken are done to perfection, very moist, and falling off the bone, with one of the best tomato based sauces ever created, hot or mild, or a combo of both. you won't be disappointed. I live out in the East now, but make trips in to treat myself to his delicious slow , smoked barbecued meats.. One of Pittsburghs Best, Thankyou Mr.Wilson.

Pretty Bad. Well..I decided to try the place after hearing our neighbors comments..Gotta say ..interesting that the person defends her father and blasts folks for being on their Cell phone when she is doing it herself. Tried to be so gracious to her and she had no interest what so ever .. It truly needs a good cleaning and someone needs to teach them that customer service is everything, especially in such a small neighborhood..

I do not plan on going back and can only say Ribs are Ribs..not much artistic flair to make em great..just cook em forever..

Not very good. I visited Wilson's with high hopes, but was very disappointed by the dry and tough ribs. Also I was very turned off by how dirty the place is. I did not want to touch the door, it was quite grimy and indeed pretty much every surface in the place is.
