Review content: 
We're a BIG fan of NC BBQ, both eastern and western style and have eaten both at many restaurants... We chose RO's since their presence online and reviews from locals made us think this was an authentic BBQ restaurant, we could not have been more wrong about that!! First of all, some reviews rave about the burgers or hot dogs, good to know but my thinking is - IF YOU'RE GOING TO TOUT YOUR BBQ BY HAVING IT AS PART OF YOUR NAME....HAVE GOOD BBQ!!!!\r Now, on to the meal: We ordered the BBQ plate which came in a styrofoam container, supposedly enough to feed 2 people... \r \r Here's what we got - a pile of very dry, flavorless pork, cut up fine enough to be almost corn meal in consistancy. I would call it a paste if it had been at all moist, which it most definitely was not. \r \r A couple of packs of Bulls-Eye BBQ sauce (ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? A BBQ restaurant that doesn't even make their own sauce??) \r \r Small handful of lifeless unremarkable fries, a few not-so-bad onion rings and hushpuppies (sad that this was the highlight of the meal)\r \r Small container of what seemed to be straight-out-of-the-can BBQ beans (Hope they didn't go through tooooooo much trouble for those)\r \r A couple of pretty dry, toasted buns, where we couldn't tell the top from the bottom\r \r Small container of some orange sauce stuff, was this the ""slaw?"" We thought it was some kind of dipping sauce for the fries or onion rings so we didn't put it on the BBQ, not that anything could've saved it anyway.\r \r Icea Tea - this was very good, but really, how can you mess up southern sweet tea?\r \r So seeing as how they offer dine-in, we decided to eat inside. Another review described it as ""spartan"" and I couldn't agree more, yet this is about the food, so I'm fine with the decor. BUT, I did get a look like I was from Mars when I asked for an extra plate so we could share the meal. They tried to give me another styrofoam container which was totally useless, if I had wanted to eat out of that, I could've used the one the meal came in. Again, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? They don't even have a paper plate for a meal that's supposedly made to be shared??\r \r So all in all, I definitely won't be going back and would NOT recommend it if you're in the mood for BBQ.\r Pros: Good sweet tea Cons: EVERYTHING except the sweet tea
