Walking into this place, you're immediately hit with that irresistible smoky BBQ aroma, setting the stage for a great meal. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff are friendly and attentive, which adds to the overall positive experience. The sides were a standout, especially the crispy coleslaw, which was a delightful surprise. The hot link, whether dry or smothered in their house sauce, was definitely the highlight of my plate--truly the best bite of the meal. The brisket, unfortunately, didn't quite live up to expectations; it was a bit under-rendered and chewy, lacking that smoky depth I was hoping for. In hindsight, I probably should have gone for the ribs. Despite that, the prices are reasonable and the portions generous, so I'd definitely go back and try another plate. It's worth a visit for sure!
So the Good, Portion size was insane, so many fries and pulled pork. The service was quick and food was out in no time. The decor was fun and clean tables. Bbq sauce was a mild, and it had good flavor without being too much. The bad, just the kick ass fries section doesn't come with a side. The Ugly, fries were on the cool side for coming out as fast as they did. I also got the BBQ beans as a side and way to overpowered on flavor.
I've been going to BJ's for 35 years! I think they have one of the best breakfasts in town. The mimosas are only $5.99. Kristy has been my server for years and I will only sit in her section! She is not only my server but my friend!! She knows how to treat her customers with outstanding service! If your meal is not right she will ensure you leave happy. Thank Kristy for all you do at BJ's BBQ.
This should be an update to my previous review, although I don't see my previous review. I came back this morning at 10:45 am to sample the country gravy and order a BBLT sandwich. I couldn't order the sandwich until lunch begins at 11am. So I ordered a mashed potatoes and country gravy to tide me over. But I also couldn't order mashed potatoes till 11am. So I asked for a country gravy sample. It was ok but I won't come back specifically by 11:45 to get it, because I'm told it is breakfast only and they toss it by 12noon. Basically, you can order breakfast OR lunch between 11am and noon. Keeping in mind that it sounds like you better be early enough that they've SERVED up your breakfast only items BEFORE noon. I realize the necessity for a schedule but I feel like tossing the country gravy at exactly noon might be a bit rigid. (:-) The BBLT claims to have DOUBLE PEPPER BACON and it's a fair claim. There's lots of bacon. And it is peppery. I can still taste the pepper on my tongue. It's also thick sliced. It definitely has a different flavor from traditional bacon. I like it. The coleslaw tastes like typical restaurant coleslaw. The service here is great. The menu is varied. My next trip I might try one of their interesting baked potato meals.

Picked up takeout today. Favorite cinnamon roll and pepper bacon 8 piece platter. Lady at the cashier desk very friendly, took care of everything. Ambiance is very much like good old fashioned dinner.
When you walk in, instantly you smell the bbq sauce. We were there for breakfast. We heard their biscuits and gravy was delicious. It was good although the gravy didn't have sausage in it. The poor waitress was moving so as she was the only one working the dining room. We will be coming back soon.
Definitely some solid bbq! If you ever come here, the standouts are the ribs, brisket, and cornbread. We had a big party and they were able to accommodate us easily. We got one of their loaded fries, onion rings, fried cheese, a seafood boil, a family platter, and a rack of ribs. Enough to feed 11 and more. I would probably skip the seafood boil next time.
I went here a few days ago and had a wonderful experience. Bj's is one of my favorite barbecue spots and it never disappoints. My server, Syndey, was very attentive and so sweet, I've gotten her as a server before and both times the service was delightful. The food was delicious, the meat was very tender and their in-house lemonade could not pair better with their food. 10 out of 10!!
Sad to say I waited over 3 years to go to BJ's ..... to be fair I've had their ribs and sauces at the rib cook off a couple times before but my first visit to their restaurant in Sparks was really good! Pork Ribs were tender and delicious, tried the medium and spicy BBQ sauces and both were good. They have a nice house special-kick ass fries, basically loaded fries with cheese ,sour cream,green onions and pulled pork with BBQ sauce on top. Kick Ass fries were very good and filling with a healthy pile of pork so if you order some consider splitting a plate or sandwich with your friend or significant other, good flavor, I added a little salt to the fries because I believe they are served plain so you can salt to taste which is perfect. Side salads were very tasty, fresh house made ranch with nice greens served in a chilled bowl! And last but certainly not least the cornbread was excellent, definitely the gourmet version made with white cake batter that makes a lighter sweeter cornbread that tastes bit like an old fashioned donut , well done ! Service was great, our waiter was helpful at recommending specials etc and overall we had a very pleasant dinner. We will definitely be back with family and friends very soon!!
Came by during the lunch rush for a lunch meeting with two co-workers. I throughly enjoyed the food and we were served and paid within the hour - which is all you can ask for a lunch service! I got the pulled pork, grits, coleslaw, cornbread, and brisket with medium BBQ sauce. i could've gone a lot spicier on the BBQ sauce, but the meats were tender and juicy. Portions were great and I took home half for dinner! The space screams BBQ Pit in the south, which I appreciate. They don't try to be fancy or over the top - instead they are exactly what they promise and it is absolutely delicious.
