The service was LOUSY. Our ribs were cold. We had to request that they be warmed. The took the plates to the back and I assume microwaved them.
It was awful!!!!!!!!!!!!
Times are too hard to waste money. I will not go back.

I was in pittsburgh for a meeting. I asked the hotel staff a place where I can get bbq at, they told me Boomerangs up the street.
I went there as soon as I walked in the place you can smell the fire burning and food. I really liked the brisket and the servings are huge (had to get a doggie bag) I for one liked the food. I was sitting at the bar and a gentleman was talking to me we talked for awhile and I told him he looks like someone I know then I asked him where he is from. He looked at me and said he played for the Steelers his name was Townsend. After I choked on my beer I was pleased for the food and for meeting him!
I gave this place a three star because the bartender seemed more interested in talking to the them than taking time out to come back and see if I needed something else. But all in all it was a nice place to chill.

I like to eat

I live in Georgia and I do love bbq..A friend who works at pitt ohio near a bbq place took me there. Oh my, I loved the sauce they use and the ribs are to die for! I never seen Beef ribs that big and meaty in my life! What is really cool about the place is the servers are very up on things and you can see the cook cooking the food right there! If I have a chance to come back to Pgh I would go back there for more.

BEWARE OF WHAT??

I enjoy reading review of resturants before I patronize them, and it's not unusual to find bad comments posted on even the best eateries in town. I always consider the source. The food & beverage business has a high employee turnover, and it's quite common for a disgruntled former employee to try to disparage their previous employer by making a less than complimentary posting on the establishment. I trust without any reservation this is exactly what happen with this place. I've been a customer here for years, simply because in my expert opinion (and I eat BBQ all over the USA), this place is the best. I taken family and clients here many times, and never been disappointed. If there is a new owner, great. The place has been freshly painted, decor updated, and the staff is friendly and unpretentious. If you are looking for BBQ that is top notch, an atmosphere that is down home friendly and service staff that know their business, go here. I do. And I will again and again.
