★★★★★ 5.0 Cassandra Fuller · Feb 2026

The food is always absolutely delicious! Even better plus, all the french fries are fried in beef tallow, not that terrible, carcinogenic, canola or vegetable oil! That was a huge win for us! The brisket is delicious, moist, and fresh. Everything came out piping hot and very fast! Our server was absolutely amazing attentive and very pleasant.

Great little barbecue joint. Had the loaded baked potatoe with pulled pork - so good and filling. I recommend mixing the two sauces - one sweet and one vinegary. Rolls are a 10000/10

When you’ve been around over 60 years. That says something. Not the first time coming here and won’t be the last. If you’re looking for great bbq and service this is the place to try! From the brisket to the chicken, everything is delicious! Great choice of sides and some tasty sweet tea.

**★★★★★** I absolutely love Johnson's Barbeque! Walking into this place feels like stepping into your neighbor's favorite hangout spot - and I mean that in the best possible way. The food is fantastic, but what really sets Johnson's apart from all the other barbecue joints out there is the atmosphere. Those weathered black-and-white photos on the walls tell the story of this community, while the warm glow from the neon sign and the comfortable mix of wooden tables and booths create this incredibly welcoming vibe. What I love most is how authentic everything feels here. This isn't some corporate chain trying to manufacture that "local BBQ joint" experience - this IS the real deal. The staff treats you like family, the regulars nod hello, and you genuinely feel like you belong in the neig

★★★★★ 5.0 Diego · Jul 2025

Great BBQ place which has been here for decades! The ribs were fatty and meaty with a great flavor, my brisket wasn’t as hot as I would like but flavor was good. The beans were delicious! Portions are great, I went very hungry and still wasn’t able to finish it all! - Will come back if I’m in this area again.
