Renovating recently closed down Riverside bar, don’t know when they’re planning on opening, just see a couple of banners hanging.

Good spot? Never been to the one in Nola, looks like it could be decent bbq and may have a chance to be successful considering there’s not much else in terms of bbq around here

Meh.

20 years ago the one in NOLA was a cool lunch spot and prettt cheap. Haven't been in a few years so things may change, but don't expect it to be great.

Was at the one in N.O. last week. Good bar atmosphere but bbq about a 7. Two meat combo was $22 . Ribs are an up charge.

Sticks ain’t far and it’s awesome but obviously a different vibe than the riverfront.

I said to my buddies the other day Blue Oak should have opened up in the old riverside. They would have made an absolute killing. Oh well

They probably wouldn't want to stretch themselves too thin with the recent opening at Avenue Pub and the Alabama location under construction.

Building is a complete shite hole and is deemed a historic structure. The amount of smoke that accumulated on everything left behind after Riverside left was astounding the several times I was inside of it the last few months.

The construction cost required to bring it back to life will result in absurd food and drink prices. I do not see this being a long-term venture for BBQ on the riverfront.

I just finished lunch there and cannot fathom ever making a return trip.

The menu is atrocious to say the least. It is vastly over priced and the service was just as bad.

I was skeptical how it would be. Is it at least good for drinks?

Inside looks fine. The food and drink prices seemed absurd to me. I can't see many people sitting there paying $5 to $8 per beer for a long period of time.

No item on their Southshore menu is on this one. $18 for a lunch burger is insane. There is no BBQ at this location. The waitress said they plan to have "Specials" from the NO location in the next few months, but will limit the quantity of (1) item to 25 or 30 per day. Whomever the marketing genius is here needs to be replaced or they won't make it long.
