Customer Reviews

"Amazing food, friendly staff and service excellent. Spare rib plate w/two side and a tea"

- Justin B.

"The owner here is so sweet. I love the how she always tries to take care of her customers. By far the best bbq I have ever had and it's a great price"

- Samantha C.

"The place has a lot of character, you can tell it's been a part of the community for a very long time. The staff are lovely, they make you feel welcome. The food is absolutely delicious. The Brisket is tender and juicy but not overly fatty. Their sauce is packed with flavor. Even the bread was toasted to perfection and pillow soft on the inside. The portions are great and the prices are very reasonable when you consider the quality and taste of what you're getting."

- Daniel O.

"First time trying Willie B's & we will definitely be back! Building has that neighborhood BBQ joint feel to it, & we appreciated the super friendly service. The turkey was tender & thankfully not dry at all like some other places. A scoop of ice cream on the peach cobbler would have taken it up a notch, but it was pretty good. Best items hands down were the jalapeno cream corn & the sausage & brisket ***burrito***- ginormous & so delicious! We already know what we're ordering next time! Glad we gave this place a try! "

- Terri K.

"The place is a pop and mom hole in the wall. But the staff is very friendly. The food to myself was a miss. My brisket was dry and tough. The sides of mac and cheese and the mashed potatoes were good. Maybe it was one if those days. They do take out and cater. I might stop by once more to give it another chance."

- Lore F.

"We ordered the Brisket, Sausage and smoked turkey plate with potato salad and macaroni salad with peach cobbler for dessert. For a party of 9. Unfortunately the Brisket was dry unless you put alot of sauce on it. The smoked turkey did not taste like anything at all. No smoke flavor or turkey flavor just salt and it was very dry and chewy. The sausage on the other hand was very juicy and delicious. The potato salad and macaroni salad was OK nothing to rave about. And the peach cobbler was not good at all. Overall 3 stars and I'm pushing it. And that's because we went in early around 11:30 to get fresh meat. But we were all disappointed."

- MICHAEL V.

"We were craving for Texas BBQ and got a recommendation from a friend to this place. The vibe and atmosphere is nice. They have some instagramable spots as well. I also included their menu here for y'all. We ordered a family platter (botana for 2) and a famous baked potato with mollejas. The portion is definitely a lot for 2, we are so full and still have a lot of leftover to take home. It came with choices of 3 sides and choice of either tortillas or bread. We chose potato salad, cream corn and coleslaw. On the plate they have pickles, onion and pico de gallo too. Now let's talk about the taste. Overall, all the meat are awesome except for the brisket, it's a little dry. The ribs, chicken and sausages is amazing. The sides are great too! Highly recommend the baked potato, it was PERFECTLY SPLENDID! We chose to have everything on it (butter, cheese, sour cream, bacon bits and chives). You can choose whatever meat you want on it or no meat at all. Staffs are super friendly and welcoming. If you have a chance, stop by and try their food. So gooood"
