“We tried this for the first time today. We only got one meal because we wanted to try it first. IT WAS PHENOMENAL. Sometimes food near closing is mediocre, dry, tasteless. This was not the case. Everything tasted so fresh and it was just what I needed. The beef ribs, Mac and cheese and sweet potatoes oh my goodness. I am so happy we found this establishment and very very glad to support, we will be back. Keep up the great work! :)“

“This afternoon we serendipitously discovered this place while looking for a curio shop. Waldos 's is an ancient,vintage treasure which offers excellent BBQ at reasonable prices. We were told the place will soon undergo needed renovations. In the meantime, enjoy the many quirky old-time signs and wonderful food. You'll be glad you did!“
