I have eaten at the PIt four times in the past two months. Each time it gets better. The fried chicken is outstanding. The mac n cheese is delicious. The bbq is better than most places you will find in eastern North Carolina, and that is saying a lot! The bartenders are friendly. I have had a few service issues, mostly in waiting for my server to arrive to take drink orders. I chalked that up to it being a new restaurant. And since it is a restaurant, the N&O reviewed it very early, well before most other restaurants are reviewed.
