If you are a barbeque nut like I am, then you have probably driven well over an hour out of the way to get your grub on at your favorite bbq joint. I know I have... and it was to Rooters in Lake Sawyer (Black Diamond area.) One bite of the brisket and you'll never again settle for 2nd rate 'que. I like all kind of bbq styles, but this is the best anywhere. I guarantee it. Please, if you LOVE good Q, map this place and make the pilgrimage. You're taste buds will thank you. And you'll thank the pitmaster.

Pros: brisket, ribs, chickn, reasonable $$$, friendly staff

Cons: it's in lake sawyer

Rooters is without a doubt the BEST BBQ in the Puget Sound area, I've tried Dixies,Texas Smokehouse,Caveman ect. and they ALL fail to match Rooters....Rooters had a fire but they ARE rebuilding and I'm going to be the first in line when they reopen.

Pros: Great Food, Nice People

Cons: Poor Parking

Very Messy but well worth it. Excellent food & service, nice outdoor sitting large enough for the whole family. Don't pass up the baked beans very good. Large amounts of food (enough to take home for us single people who hate to cook) well worth the drive

I've tried plenty of mediocre bbq in the Seattle area and this isn't it. I will agree, the service seems less than friendly, but the food and the prices are excellent. For $5.95 you get succulent smoked brisket on croissant-type bread with grilled onions, your choice of sauce (on the side as it should be with "real" bbq), two sides of your choice (with the best beans I've ever had!) and a bag of chips. Most places you get this mushy, stringy slop on a store-bought bun for the same price. Rooters is Tops!

Pros: great brisket, great value

Cons: way out of town, mediocre service

I went to this place after hearing such great things about it and was very disapointed. When I ordered, the lady at the counter was rude and unfriendly. I asked for a burger without relish and she told me that it didn't come woth relish. (On the menu it says that all burgers come with relish) So I said ok. Then when I got it, it had relish on it and took it back to tell her that I asked for it without, and she was rude. I went back another time and the same thing happened. She didn't apologize or anything. I thought the food was OK, and the prices were expensive, but the service was awful.

Pros: seating outside

Cons: bad service, expensive prices
