Irene Cantizano BescósDecember 13, 2014This place was amazing! The skate was one of the best seafood dishes I have ever had, and the banana cream pie left me begging for more. Perfect for a fancy gourmet dinner date!
Jason ShellenJuly 15, 2012For dinner, get the Scotch egg to start and either the smoked ribs or plate of pork. Either way you'll thank me. During lunch grab an Alegash White beer with whatever you order.
The Wall Street JournalApril 11, 2012This BBQ spot features a tasty "Mission Dog" with bacon, pickled fresno chilies, and caramelized onions. If you're in the mood to treat yourself, order up a root beer float. Read more
Travel ChannelJuly 26, 2012Taste the "pulled” lamb sandwich with the unusual mix of watermelon vinegar, pickled watermelon rind and red cabbage slaw. It's featured on Travel Channel's Best Sandwich in America.
Joel VikrantJanuary 9, 2014The plate of pork was amazing. I had the slices of pork loin and a cut of the pork belly. It was smoked to perfection!
I do enjoy their lunch sandwiches- smoked chicken meatloaf and the bahn mi. Beet sandwich is delicious too. Wasn't a fan of the flounder po boy or lamb sandwich. For dinner, get the scotch eggs.
Kenn HwangMay 28, 2010BBQ scotch eggs, pork plate, short ribs and banana cream pie. All absolutey amazing. I've rarely been to a place where everything we ordered was a bona Fide home run, but Wexler's delivered in spades!
Tasting TableJune 22, 2012Don’t miss the remarkably airy hush puppies. Crunch through the exterior and you encounter eggy, light centers flecked with golden cornmeal: Read more

Stewart AlsopNovember 30, 2011Try the Artichoke Soup - Smoked Trout, deviled Yukon Gold potatoes, & chili oil
Azin AshourvanNovember 14, 2012Bourbon banana cream pie. Tastes exactly like the Swedish classic 'marängsviss'

Jon HallOctober 9, 2013Not sure what happened to the Wexler's truck that used to park behind this place. Now there's a bike-share rack.
Derek DukesJune 10, 2010the rillette is awesome, and the plate of pork is not to be missed. pretty sure its kosher.
Andy HuangAugust 21, 2012Remember to grab a fork if you don't want your hands dirty. The pulled pork sandwich does not come pre-made.
