Customer Reviews
First off, when you enter you need to order and pay for your order and they will bring it out to you when it is ready. For us, our 2 meals were ready in 10 minutes. I had the ribs and brisket combo. For sides I went with with slaw and BBQ beans. My wife had the ribs and shrimp. Everything is excellent. The ribs are smoked to perfection with a nice bark. The ribs are served without sauce but the table has both a tomato based sauce and a mustard based sauce. The tomato based sauce is very good. I was going to buy some on the way out but there was a line forming. I highly recommend J&J BBQ.
Worth every mile, so the TV commercials say and it's true! The ribs are tender, smoky, lean and overall delicious. The sweet, rich BBQ sauce is a perfect partner, so good. Mustard sauce is also available for those who prefer it. The baked beans are very good and coleslaw, cold, crisp with a tangy creamy dressing, two sides that deserve mention alongside the ribs. You order and pay at the counter inside the entrance and within minutes of sitting down the food arrives, piping hot. Self seating is available across multiple dining rooms, the bar and offer booths, small and large, clean tables. Staff regularly check with patrons to ensure all needs are met. This is a no-frills restaurant with plenty of character and great service, worth the trip.
This place was so cool! Had an amazing experience eating there for lunch. Will go back if I'm ever in the area. So cute!
Good barbecue, had the brisket and ribs. Fun place to stop for a bite on your River road tour.
This is a little no-frills mom and pop place that does fantastic brisket. We were out for a Sunday drive and came down from Hastings Minnesota to the Wisconsin side of the river and found this place. I had the brisket sandwich and my wife had a brisket wrap. The portions were generous, the fries were tender and crispy and the Mac’n cheese was cheesy and creamy! We will be back!
