Been going here since 2009 -whole family's favorite BBQ place in San Jose. Usually order a tri tip sandwich with avocado. Kiddo loves the Mac n cheese and pulled pork. Everything we've tried is delicious

Quality has gone downhill. I used to be a big fan of this place. Ordered the brisket sandwich today and my wife ordered the burger. We both only ate half our meals as it was just not that tasty. You shouldn’t have to slather BBQ sauce on brisket to make it edible. I hope they figure it out.

110% recommend. The food is amazing I got the brisket with extra fat and it was super tender. The house mac n cheese was great and the price for the amount of food you get is very fair. My family said the fries and Sirloin Sandwhich where great. The staff is super friendly and made us feel welcomed. This is the definitely the place to come for good BBQ that dosnt break the bank. Definitely coming back.

This place is amazing, the food is awesome and the attendant was very polite and helpful!We had a Tennesse Pulled Pork plate, with fries and mac and cheese as sides!

Best baby back ribs in town. Great just puppies and corn bread. The sauce is spicy and not sweet forward which we prefer.Service great. We carried out.

The young staff member who manned the counter was delightfully polite and did hisbest to accommodate requests.Our food with served within a few minutes of ordering, which always raises a bit of suspicion about its Provenance and cooking method. My son and I ordered the same thing: barbecued brisket. It was, in a word, OK. It had no particular smoky flavor, and was served in a bland sauce. We had both gotten little paper cups with the available sauces, one of them marked “spicy n sweet”. Neither of them had any chick at all. They’re both mild, sugary barbecue sauces of the sort you might throw on a McDonald’s McNugget. Because a good barbecue sauce can make our break a barbecue restaurant, the sauce here left us dissatisfied with the meal as a whole.As sides I ordered a potato salad, which was better than most and had big chunks of potato and less mayonnaise than usual, and grilled vegetables which were fine. My son had the barbecued beans, but found them way too sweet. He also had a loaded baked potato which he didn’t finish.This barbecue restaurant is not bad at all. But it is also not good at all in our humble opinions. It’s just another mediocre barbecue place occupying space in a strip mall. It lacks a certain grunge factor that I think is important for true barbecue.Other dishes at this restaurant may be better, and we are just commenting on the brisket plate.

good place to eat. You can sit inside or take food with you. everything is tasty and inexpensive. if you just want to eat in this location, this is a good choice.

The best BBQ in the Bay Area!! Love their pulled pork & pulled chicken sandwiches, as well as their Mac & cheese (actually to die for).

I was so excited to order and pick up food to bring home after two years of not eating out so last night I placed an online order. We all sat down to eat and my mom cut into her baked potato and it was rotted. I left two messages and never heard back. I would like a refund for this rotted potato.

We had ordered two dinners to go this past Friday Mine was the Pulled Beef Brisket plate - on opening the container my Brisket certainly wasn't pulled and was very fatty. In separating the meat only about half was edible and the rest was fat - very disappointed

In my opinion this guy is a genius! He has, by far hands down, the best pecan pie in the world!! It's his grandmother's and should be entered into a pie contest lol My children love the tritip sandwiches and I love thre pulled pork. Wishes: Please bring back bacon in thre potato salad;)
