The Smoky Fire Pit - Oakland

BBQ was great. Be sure to try it. Was able to eat it all. Nothing hard. Soul food is good also.Food: 5/5

I've been coming for years, for the bbq ribs and sides. The ribs are generously sized and smoky, great sauce on the side. Genny is one of a kind! Not always open but when they are grab a plate!Food: 5/5

The food is amazing, you can tell it’s made with love. And i loved the customer service I received. I felt like I was at a family members house.

Delicious food drenched in sauces. Would recommend.

So I was CRAVING good BBQ before I went on my way back home to Stockton I love me my Everett and Jones but I didn 't have the time to wait 1 hour for my food. So I found Genny 's on Yelp! Hella surprising because as many times as my man and I drive down this street, I never noticed it! It 's on the corner of Havenscourt Bancroft. We arrived and nobody was there, given we arrived at 11:05am and they opened at 11am lmao. I 'm a fatgirl. The lady told us to come in, we looked at menu.They forsure can make a new menu, there 's was all torn and beat up. You could barely see prices of dinner plates. We got 2 lunch plates, hot links w/ potato salad and baked beans. I was skeptical because we ordered lunch plates just we each got an extra side which should 've been the price of lunch plate w/ price of extra side. Our total was $33 even. Then she goes in the end... you know what y 'all owe me $7.. cause y 'all hot dinner plates. Huh? Never that. I didn 't wanna be difficult and my boyfriend hates when I complain about things he just goes with the flow. Then lady says but you know what.. just go across street and buy me a $2 pack of napkins and we 'll call it even. She also asked since we got dinner plates if I wanted bread or cornbread. I said cornbread but ofc someone walked in and began talking to her as she was asking me a question and she completely ignored my response and never gave me my bread. Anyway, so my boyfriend did just that. Napkins ended up being $4.75. No biggie. Just customer service was off. I go home, heat my food. I was excited because I heard the hot links are homemade from other reviews. I heated my food and got my lil wheat bread from my pantry, sat down hella hungry excited... potato salad was regular, had a lot of pickles for my taste buds. Beans were average, honestly tasted like a can of bush 's baked beans lol. The links... my god I never had hot links that gave me that feeling in my mouth. I 'm so sorry but they lacked flavor, heat, texture. Everything was a miss for me from food to service, even located as there 's literally NO parking in that area. I wouldn 't be back.. just wasn 't my forte. If you like so-so customer service and okay bbq, you should come here.
