Underdog BBQ

I absolutely LOVED this place. I watched the birth of this establishment on the Discovery Channel TV program Undercover Billionaire. Since my wife and I were in town, we decided to try it out. When we walked in, we were immediately taken in by the smell of smoke. Something you would smell if you were doing an outside wood fired BBQ. As we looked at the menu, my wife was concerned about several items on the menu. She has become very gluten sensitive in the last 2 years which has caused her to scrutinize everything she eats. We consulted with the waitress and she was not able to sufficiently answer our questions. The waitress actually brought the cook from the kitchen (I think it was Ashley) who was able to tell us what was in the food. My wife was able to make a selection that was not only safe for her to eat but was also delicious. (BTW, my meal was great, too!) Thank you to all the staff at Underdog BBQ and I wish you great success!

Having found out that I can no longer eat anything containing gluten, I stopped eating in restaurants almost two years ago. For my husbands birthday/retirement celebration we were working our way through the Erie wine trails. He had watched Undercover Billionaire and really wanted to eat at the Underdig restaurant. The staff was so nice. I had to ask and question the waitress about all the food on the menu because of my gluten sensitivity. If she didn’t know the answer, she brought out the cook to answer my questions. ( That is why I no longer eat out- I’m a pain because of my dietary restrictions since gluten is hidden in most foods and sauces ). The cook (cannot remember her name) was so nice and went out of her way to ensure I didn’t ingest any gluten. The meal was wonderful. The waitress was attentive. If we are ever in the area again, we’ll stop back in for a great meal!
