Pit B Q - Miami

I have mixed thoughts on The Pit. The ribs are usually very tasty. My hubby and father in law prefer the spare ribs, but I prefer the baby back ribs. Last time we dined here, my baby backs came out much thicker than is typical (see photo) but were yummy. The sides are a mixed bag. The maduro plantains are good, but the beans are way too sweet. Moro rice is good. I think my biggest dislike is that they don't offer glasses of regular tap water, so all water is bottled water. I try to minimize my use of single-use plastic, so this drives me crazy. This is an open air restaurant, under a chickee hut. There is a stage, on which my 3 year old loves to dance.

The vibe was nice . Our server was friendly and attentive. The baby back ribs were delicious. I was disappointed that they only serve beer and wine, other than that I would recommend.

Our airboat tour guide recommended this place for alligator bites and I literally changed my itinerary to come here because 1) I did not have to take a detour as we drove back the Wynwood Art District 2) our party had one hour to kill 3) I can fulfill few of my friend 's requests on having alligator bites. [Parking]: Easy and free private parking. [Atmosphere]: Tiki-style outdoor tables. [Service]: Very slow and not efficient. Automatic 18% tip for a party of 6 and additional 3.98% on credit card fee. Everglades Frog Legs $19.99): Meat didn 't taste too bad. Famous Pit Gator Bites $15.99): Tasted like chewier version of chicken. 3-star on frog legs and gator bites, but minus one-star on a combination of slow service, expensive food, and hidden credit card fee. Subpar experience, but mission getting gator bites) accomplished.
