Absolutely outstanding. This is hands down one of the best BBQ spots I've been to.

I had the burnt end brisket platter, the aylwinator cheeseburger, & the pulled pork sandwich, & every single item was phenomenal. The brisket was incredibly juicy, tender, & packed with smoky flavour. The burger was cooked perfectly, the bun was fresh & unbelievably soft, & every bite was excellent. The pulled pork was just as impressive-moist, flavourful, & perfectly balanced.

You can tell they take pride in everything they serve. The quality of the meat, the execution, & the attention to detail were top-notch from start to finish.

If you're looking for authentic barbecue, this place is an absolute must-visit. I'll definitely be back.

Absolutely the best beef brisket sandwich I've ever had. To die for. Melts in your mouth. Plus the creamy coleslaw was delightfully delicious.

I was so happy to see Alwyn's at Atwater Market. Having heard so much about it over the years, I knew I had to stop by.

I ordered the Alwynator burger, which was featured on their sandwich board, & it absolutely did not disappoint. At around $14, I'd say it's a solid value for the quality & portion. The burger was juicy, flavorful, & satisfying-the kind of comfort food that instantly puts a smile on your face specially when I was so hungry 😋

As I'm writing this review, though, I'm watching people mostly ordered & raved about the beef brisket sandwich… & now I'm seriously regretting my decision. 🥲 I should have known earlier & ordered both. The brisket looked incredible, & now I'm somehow hungry all over again.

Looks like I'll just have to come back-& honestly, that's not a bad problem to have. If you're at Atwater Market, Alwyn's is definitely worth checking out. Just learn from my mistake: order the brisket too. Sob sob.

To start my girlfriend & I went to the deli that was a spot that u could eat inside & outside. We opted to eat inside since it was a very hot day. The service on the indoor deli was excellent & very accommodating & the food was also very good. Unfortunately the indoor restaurant didn't have the full menu & so we were told that the rest of the menu is served down the walkway at an outside location. We ended u eating our food & I really wanted to try the brisket & sausage so we went & stood in the line & when I got to the cash to order a lady was speaking to the cashier guy & so I started asking questions to a really nice guy who was preparing peoples orders & when it came my turn I moved over a few feet to the cashier guy who was super rude with a huge attitude. First he accused me of skipping the line & then when I asked him about a combo on the menu he rudely replied like what is written is what u get. He was a tall bierded guy with a tattoo of a flower or something on his left elbow. My advice to him is if u choose to work in the service industry then check ur attitude cuz people don't deserve it especially for how expensive the food is. All in all we enjoyed our experience except for that guy who ruined at the end. I personally will not be returning to this place.
