REVIEWS OF Holy Smokin Butts BBQ IN Arizona

Derek Haner

The sausage was very good, and their BBQ sauce were very flavorful. I tried the pulled pork and brisket sandwich thinking I would get more bang for my buck, but the just naked the flavors of the other instead of complimenting. So next time I will try the brisket solo. I will definitely be back.

Christopher Parker

Amazing BBQ! Generous portions and reasonably priced. What more can you ask for?

Jeff Rodenkirch

Service personnel were in need of training. The food was OK but the meat didn't have a lot of flavor on its own. The sauces were a little thin. The beans were very tasty. Easily not the worst BBQ in Tucson but HSB has got a little way to go to catch up to Smoky Mo's.

Dianne Wilson

Food was very good . I did not like seeing a blue bucket of water in the floor that constantly reused to wipe tables with . That made m e a bit sick to my stomach.hot water and some disinfectant!!!

Mark Bledsoe

I live in Texas. We have some GREAT BBQ restaurants. This place is phenomenal by all standards!

Dominic Martinez

Brisket and pork cook perfectly. Too bad food wasn't hot. Bbq sauce was like flavored water. Mac n chz was like card board. Menu's were printed on paper ? Ken's Hardwood BBQ is way better...

Teresa Hinojos

We tried this place the other day due to high & great reviews. We were all very disappointed. For starters when we were served our food was room temperature & got cold pretty quickly. 1/4 brisket sandwich, coyote & tri-tip there was no flavor even after drowning it with 3 bbq sauce that were on the table, adding salt , pepper pickles & onions could not help any of these meats Macaroni n cheese texture looked pretty good but here again flavor was not there Potatoe salad forget it try fixing it with the mustards salt ,& pepper didn't help was still very bland Smoke bbq beans tasted like they opened a can of some generic brand was not good Disappointed to pay for this dinner & leave it all at the restaurant If there was a way to put a "negative 10" that is how I would rate the food there ☹

Marilee Crumley

It was great! Love their new location, cool bathroom sinks, and the space.

j marzolf

Very disappointing visit! It was the evening before Fathers Day and my husband asked specifically to go to this restaurant. We were told they moved to a bigger place so they had more room to cook since they always seemed to run out of food halfway through the day at their smaller place. Well a bigger restaurant didnt solve their problem! They have been open for over a month so they should have been able to figure out supplies by now. At 6 PM on a Saturday, we were told they had no tri tip left. My son asked for sausage, we were told they had no sausage left. He asked for the turkey and were told there was no turkey left. They didnt even have lemonade left. We all decided on the brisket. 15 minutes later the table next us were told they were now running low on ribs and brisket! They only have 5 meats on the menu! Ridiculous! The place wasnt even that busy for the dinner hour! Little Anthony's next door was busier! How do you expect to stay in business? I know we wont be coming back again for sure! If you are planning to go, dont get your heart set on a particular item on the menu! Chances are really good they wont have enough! Management needs to figure out how to keep up with their customers! I can understand running out of an item, but not 4 out of 5 items on a Saturday night! Very disappointing visit!

Rick Johnson

All the barbecue is awesome they moved in next to our work we love it sausage sandwich pulled pork sandwich coyote sandwich was awesome thank you

Rich Santori

Best BBQ in the wild wild west. Baby Back Ribs were the G.O.A.T. Ask for Cheryl. Best server there!

Brian De Guia

Just like the first time around, bbq proteins and sides were hands down the number one in the Old Pueblo. Brisket was moist and fatty delicious. Ribs were tender, salty, savory. Sausage had good meaty texture. Pulled pork was delicious, especially good on the included toast. Most importantly, the assortments of bbq sauce was much appreciated. Sides - Mac and cheese, ‘tater salad, bbq meat beans, fries, ‘slaw - also tasty. Small but enough. It was busy by the hostess(Sharon) was able to seat us right away. Service(Bobby) was excellent. Glad we waited even though the lunch crowd was in effect. On the repeat list permanently. -the IBM lunch club PS - the new location is a lot cooler and roomier. Kudos!!!

Leora Shirley

The smoked meats are good. Sandwiches do not come with a side dish. Side dishes on platters are too small, just 2oz, even with a 1lb platter that costs $21. Service needs improvement, it's slow and inefficient. NO deserts at all. How difficult would it be to have Vanilla ice cream and apple pie? The flatware was cheap and dirty. I killed and flushed a prerty large cockroach that was in the entry hall to the restrooms and alerted the hostess.

MR Love

Amazing food. Service on point. Highly recommended! Please go and enjoy this wonderful experience!

Raul Hernandez

No tea to drink ran out by 6pm really No turkey meat no tri tip Was not impressed still my favorite is MR K BBQ

Pamela Rutter

We went for a late lunch. Ribs were very tender and had a nice smoky flavor, but they could have been hotter. Four sauces to choose from. I like to combine the spicy and sweet. Sides were very good. We had potato salad, beans, and coleslaw. The potato salad had a hint of dill, which I like. The slaw dressing seemed to be sour cream based instead of mayo, though I could be wrong about that. But whatever it was, it was very good. Sounds like they will be moving to their new location soon. Also, they give a discount to police, fire, and military personnel.

Steve Iannazzo

Went to HSB BBQ on their opening night at the new location months ago. They were overwhelmed by the crowd. They needed time to get on their feet. Well....they're on their feet now. Went back today for the first time since opening day. Had sandwiches without sides. We had pulled pork, tri-tip, and lean brisket. All good. I'll go back again and it won't be a months-long wait before I do this time.

Fairie McCarey

I went in to pick up a lunch for my hubby who was in chemo treatment. The sandwich was good he told me however they forgot his ice tea :(

Linda Cammilleri

Wow! Awesome bbq. Had brisket, sausage and pulled pork. Yum. Worth the 45 minute drive across town! Will be back again.

Karen Treadway

Best Smoked Beef Brisket I've ever eaten

Javier Gomez

Karen Delgado

Great food and value and the best waiters!

Belinda Mendez

This is definitely a must try!!..No room for disappointment!!..the food is excellent and the service that Derick gave was exceptional!!..we will be back again. .

Judith Sekerka

Hi All, I hardly ever post, but l just had to the service was great, omg you just gotta try the fall off the bone ribs and the smoked beans that’s it it was all so good. Try it you’ll like it ; )

Steve Redyns

I heard great things about this BBQ joint from friends and decided to try it out. I was not disappointed. The menu is simple and to the point, and the employees were really great. Will definitely be back.

Steve McAllister

Everyone loved their food and the service was excellent.

John Johnson

The food and house margaritas were awesome. I will be going back!

Amanda Maus

We tried this place back when it was a food truck several years ago and were not impressed. However, their food is amazing at the restaurant. We ate 4 of their meats - pulled pork, brisket, tri tip and sausage. The meats were all super tender and juicy. Slaw was fresh - cabbage has a nice crunch. Tater salad was perfect. Mac and cheese was bland but adding the mustard BBQ sauce perked it right up. Wish they had a legit vinegar based eastern Carolina sauce but their sauces are pretty good.

Judie Davis

Great service and friendly personal! Food is really great and have been there 3 times since they opened

Margaret DiFrank

The smoked meats were very savory and delicious. The sides were very mediocre.

Bob Carver

Good portions! Great brisket!

Katie Brown

Oh my Gosh so flippin good!!

Rhonda Moreno

Awesome food and service. The ribs and pork sandwich was so dang good. The meat melted in your mouth. We will be going there often!

B Miller

Was very satisfied with the quality of the food. The service was excellent. The only thing I didn't like was the way the food served on the trays. We will be back.

Brandi Taylor

Food is excellent. NOONE EVER ANSWERS THE PHONE because they're swamped. ORDERING ONLINE IS NOT AN OPTION sometimes.

Braeden Harris

Growing up in Texas I've always been disappointed by Arizona barbeque. This place is the exception. They have wet and dry brisket and crosscut. I get the crosscut, and it is on point. They have several sauces and THEY COME ON THE SIDE. That means the focus is on the meat, and the sauce is just extra. But the meat is always great with or without sauce. I was thrilled to find this place, and I even like the beans and potato salad.

john tavakolian

Great food good service.

Calvin Dacus Jr

Very good. The brisket was cooked just right with great taste. Loved the tater salad with dill. My wife enjoyed the pulled pork. The spicy x sauce was just right. The sweet tea had just enough sugar. The service was spot on. We'll be back Good job by all

Gregory Benoist

Nice sauces, good meats, friendly staff. The environment is casual and has an open setting. A one meat plate will satisfy most people and still have leftovers. Ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender with a nice smoky flavor. Sausage is a little spicy, but works with any sauce on the table.

Jennifer Leon

Wow! What an absolutely amazing place! We placed 7 orders to go and all of the food was fantastic and came out in a timely manner. The brisket was so juicy and flavorful and the pulled pork was one of my favorites by far. Their large portion of fries can feed two or more people so keep that in mind when getting them. I got my brioche bun toasted and topped it with the pulled pork and spicy sauce and it was pure heaven. We will dine in next time so we can check out their margaritas

Mary Musgrave

They have the most tender and delicious brisket ever. The servers are especially good, friendly and helpful. Only one problem, this word is getting around and more and more people are going. Oh, yes their.mac and cheese is too scrumptious to believe. Yommmmmm!

Derek Kolb

Tater salad and pulled pork was amazing!

Amanda McKinley

Whoa this place is fantastic. Quick service and food (and oh the food!). All the sauces were yummy. This is the best bbq I’ve had in quite some time. Better than rhymes with smushfire. The complimentary banana bread pudding at the end gave me the real yeehaw vibe I needed on this Friday before a holiday weekend.

Steve Street

It was excellent everything was great and tastey

Auntie Rose

Best Texas style barbecue in Tucson. Super smoky juicy tender meat. We had brisket and ribs. Ask for fatty brisket which was not obviously fatty but extra juicy and tender. Ribs are juicy and fall off the bone. Four great sauses: sweet, spicy (a little), extra spicy (a lot), and mustard based. Sides are just average but that is not why you go for BBQ.

Kimi DuMi

I hate BBQ the taste of smell the everything but this was delicious. Brianna the server was on top of everything and was able to have a great conversation about the restaurants as well.

Praakrit Pradhan

This place just got revamped into a restaurant but guess what! The foods still the same we knew it and loved it for! It's got good space in the restaurant good service and they even separated the to go orders and dinners. It's a full flegded restaurant that I would tell anyone who likes any ki d of BBQ to go try!

Sam Moncada

The bbq was great especially the tri tip

Jennifer Kosik

Awesome Food and great service

Jesse Desens

This place is NOT Gluten Free. My daughter & her mother have Celiac's & both of them reacted to eating the brisket. If you need Gluten Free options, go to BrushFire BBQ. I appreciate what example this establishment has brought forth. A food truck opening a full scale restaraunt in Tucson is what makes this place a World City of Food. The Mac & cheese is wonderful. The pulled bork is delicious. The brisket is succulent & juicy. My friend enjoys buying a whole rack of ribs when the cart is at the Fourth Avenue Street Fair. I enjoy the food, but my family can't eat here, even though I would.

Michael Konrad

Best ribs I have ever had!

Animals _plus

The service was excellent but the ribs were very fatty. They served on trays and the whole place smelled like smoke.

Eli Curiel

Large portions. Large seating area. Fast service. Pulled pork could have been served hotter. Luke warm. Xspicey sauce was just spicey. Military discounts available.

Željko Plavšić

Nice place with good food

Chris Wincek

Out of Ribs, Tri-tip, Mac-n-chz, and Baked Beans on my first trip there on a friday at 6 so was pretty disappointed. Also, BBQ joint should always have homemade Banana Pudding for dessert. Will update after next trip and can hopefully get some ribs, beans and mac

J Campbell

Terrible service and the food they had available was mediocre at best.

Mark Bilbo

It’s sad to drive from 10 miles away only to find on Saturday at 6:30pm that they only have brisket! We tried to calling 8 different times for a hour before we drove over and only got their voice mail hell and no one answered. I knew we should check before driving especially after reading their reviews! Sad when you only have 1 item to serve your customers.. the new location is nice but we left and went to eat Mexican.. which had their full menu! Will try again maybe?

Dan Turco

great ribs, decent brisket and pork, would come back again

Michael Metz

Great BBQ! The people are awesome, the prices are reasonable and the food is delicious. We picked it on a whim and I'm glad we did.

victoria highsmith

Fantastic food and good service. Definitely worth a visit. We will be returning soon!!!!

abnormaltoy

The food was so good, I almost cried. Everything I had was a trip back to my childhood in Texas. The brisket was juicy and smokey, the ribs were super savory and juicy. But for me, that night, my favorite was the sausage, an andouille (my mouth is watering as I type) was top notch...everything was as good as I've ever had. We Southerners take our BBQ seriously...as long as I live in Tucson...this will be MY BBQ joint. PS...there are more sausage varieties in the works :)

Boston Grambo

There's a new choices for barbeque in Tucson, but none of them compare to Holy Smoking Butts BBQ. The portions are generous, the meat tender, and the food is absolutely amazing. Their ribs are perfect.

David Stephenson

BBQ is great but needs a full bar, and serve chicken.

Scott Cantrell

Good fricken bbq very delicious

Josh Gordon

Good BBQ, but not great. Not as good as I'd expect from a place that only does BBQ. I got a 3/4 lb plate with a 1/4 lb of brisket, sausage, and pulled pork each. The brisket was a sizable amount. About 7 inches long and 4 inches across. No doubt it was 1/4 lb. Unfortunately it also had a vein of fat at least an inch wide down the entirety of the slab. I only got 1 sausage link (think large hot dog). No way it was 1/4 lb. The pork was very good. I also got 1 rib to try it (I judge BBQ places by pulled pork and ribs). It was very tasty. It was also $2.50. Maybe I'm crazy, but that seems really high for a rib. They had a full rack for $25, which I know is high for everywhere else around. In a pinch, Holy Smokin' Butts will do, but if I have a choice, next time I'll head to Brushfire BBQ, which is only a mile farther down Kolb.

Tracy Bissonnette

Excellent meats served WITHOUT being smothered in sauce. You actually get to taste the meat, which is awesome. The potato salad, coleslaw and fries were very good. There is a variety of sauces at the table, all of which complement the smoky meats in various ways. The service is outstanding and the prices are VERY reasonable. They were out of ribs and tri-tip and that is the only only reason I gave them 4, instead of 5 stars. In their defense, however, we did walk in 40 minutes before closing. I will definitely return to sample the other meats and side options.

Michael Nichols

As a BBQing Texan, I was not disappointed. This is the real deal! This is the quality BBQ we stand in line for back home in Austin, Tx!

Roy Shepherd

It's not a bad place the thing I have a complaint about was the brisket was cold.

Beverly Jordan

Disappointed we went in for the family feast and it is no longer on their menu. The beans were really spicy and the potato salad wasn't as good as we remembered

Ross Rivera

Absolutely Delicious. Especially, enjoyed the ribs. Fall off the bone. So good they couldn't be eaten without bbq sauce.

Tim Mason II

Amazing food! Best in Tucson BBQ!!!

Chris Durnan

Decided to try this place after seeing some posts on Facebook. We've eaten at a few BBQ places. This one was absolutely yum. Excellent ribs and brisket . potato salad was delish. Will highly recommend to anyone looking for some good BBQ. We'll definitely be back.

Spence Bilbo

Some of the very best BBQ meat in Tucson. If you know of any better, let us all know. Consistently excellent. They were sold out of some of their meats when we got there at 1:45 pm. Service was quick. Both of us had the beef brisket. Sauces at the table include a mustard, a sweet, a spicy and extra spicy (with an abundance of cayenne). Coleslaw was fair, needed something, sweetness or vinegar or spice. Baked beans were a delicious surprise. Originally a food truck. Opening a much bigger restaurant at Kolb/Broadway soon. Highly recommend!

Shelly Welcer

As an Oklahoma transplant, I missed the hell outta good BBQ. Found this lil gem at 22nd and Wilmot in an old hole in the wall Lucky Wishbone and requested this place to try for my Birthday supper last year. We have watched them as loyal eaters grow into their huge new location behind the GasLight Theater. Needless to say, was my Birthday supper choice again this year. If you are still eating BBQ at Kens or Bushfire, you are missing out on REAL DEAL TEXAS BBQ!!!

William Mathis

I tried brisket sandwich twice and today I tried to pull pork and ribs with the baked beans macaroni of course is always excellent but the baked beans is a real topper yummmmmy I was full and full of it

Nan Smith

Great venue for smoked meats. A must place to visit in Tucson. Love all their smoked meats, ribs, brisket, sausage, chicken, pork, and turkey! Excellent service but get there early for the best selections. As they sell out on some favorites!!

jerry coffey

If you go for the meat you'll love this place Great pulled pork , ribs and brisket. The French fries are as good as they get. Coleslaw is average. Beans were phoneyed up with black beans and pulled pork. NOT GOOD. The French fries were great. Nice new place with nice people. Don't forget the French fries

Jennette

Why did I never know about this place. Tri tip and brisket were simply AmAzing!

Cheryl Remsnyder

Portions were good sized. The meat was tender and very flavorful. The service was great. What more could you ask for? We will definitely be repeat customers.

Luis Vega

Great food, the Xtra-spicy sauce was pretty good.

Joan Meyer

My first time. Excellent food. Gary our server was a special,happy guy. Big smile all the time and great service. Hope he waits on us on our next visit. Thank you for the good "food" experience.

Sara Greco

The first experience at the new building, which was just a few days after they opened, was disappointing. This second visit, a few weeks later, and everything is again right with the bbq world! Ribs, brisket, pulled pork and sausage are excellent. The sausage seems different than it used to be; not sure if that's an actual change or just misremembered. All of the proteins have such great smokey flavor. The biggest "problem" here is knowing that nothing you order needs the addition of bbq sauce, but that you want to use sauce because they're also so good. As a happy aside, they now serve alcohol, too. Beer, margaritas; good pairings with your giant tray of barbecue.

Grace Herring

Great food, seated fast even while busy time, and nice staff (Greg was really nice).

William Ingram

The food is way better then brush fire BBQ I would rather eat there instead of brush fire. If you have eaten @ Brush fire BBQ don't go back go to Holy smokin butts BBQ if you've never eaten @ Brush fire BBQ don't. Go to Holy smokin butts BBQ instead. It's 100% better then brush fire BBQ. I give Holy butts BBQ 2

Tammy Rascon

Excellent barbeque! Plenty of seating. Great service.

Jerry Gilbert

Not a big fan of Holy Smokin Butts BBQ. On a non-busy night we were carted around the restaurant to a table that wasn't ready, after waiting 10 minutes. Several other empty tables, but we weren't allowed to sit in those. After being taken back to the front, we waited another 5 minutes before a clean table to open up so we could be seated. So, I got the sampler plate that included 1/4 lb of brisket, 1/4 lb of tri tip and a double order of ribs (4). Even though the brisket looked seasoned it virtually had no taste was was dry. The brisket did not have any smoke flavor to it, it just tasted like meat. The ribs were dry rubbed with a heavy hand of pepper. Very little smoke flavor since there was so much peppered dry rub. The Tri-Tip was outstanding. Lightly seasoned and a great smokey flavor. My 2 sides for this were the BBQ beans and potato salad. The beans which looked like black and pinto beans had no BBQ flavor and just tasted like beans. The potato salad was rather plain. My daughter had the Pulled Pork Sandwich. She noted that it just tasted like pork, with no other flavor. We went through there sauces to try and find one that we would like, my daughter like the spicy, and this helped her enjoy her pulled pork. I found all the sauces to have too much vinegar. I am not a big vinegar based BBQ kind of guy so my experience here what not what I hoped it would be. If you like vinegar based BBQ then this might be the place for you. Also, if you like your BBQ to be flavorless and like to add sauce to get your flavor this might be the place for you. For me it is a no go. Overall, since the place is fairly new, the place was clean including the restrooms. Service was a bit slow and inattentive. Food is served on cafeteria style trays, which had me wondering if I was in a cafeteria or a restaurant.

mark alterman

First time going and loved it great food great service

Vincent Dorsett

Food was excellent. Portions were huge.. Wonderful all around.

Juan Ramirez

Great food here, I had a little of all the meats and they were delicious. Plus the service was fast and friendly.

Kristy Mata

Short menu, good customer service, large venue to have a good meal with

Samantha Hendren

BBQ to die for! Brisket is where it's at. Sides need a little work though.

Kurt P. Brown

If you love BBQ, this is a must visit place. BBQ is some of the best I've had in a while. Can understand that their stuff runs out by mid to late day. Their BBQ sauce is on point too and goes great with everything. Staff is extremely friendly and service is quick and delightful.

Rebecca Ruth

Great service! The meat is quality! Love the choices for sauces! Can’t wait to come back with friends!

J H

The smoked meats are excellent! The sides are good too.

Leslie Garay

Food is just AMAZING! My favorite place to eat in Tucson. I would go there everyday if I could haha. They have great customer service with the sweetest host that greets you. Keep up the great work!!

Josh Richards

Great food cheap

barb doubleday

The food was delightful, never have had brisket so tender and tasty.. wonderful people working there. Service could not be faster. Will be back!!!?

Marty West Acuna

This place was suggested by a member of my Men's group (@pantano.church) for us to try. I was a little skeptical, having lived in the South, about BBQ in Tucson but boy was I wrong! I had a little bit of everything (except Tri-tip since they were out by the time we got there) and it was all Outstanding!! Great atmosphere and superb Staff. We're definitely going back next month and I'll be back before that for more (& Tri-tip).

Ruth Abigail

It's has everything you want it to have. Great food that has unparalleled flavor and tenderness, wonderful sauces to choose from, satisfying sides that compliment the meal, kind staff that make great suggestions, and I actually can't even express how short the wait was. I mean I didn't even have time to take a few sips out of my drink after sitting down and the food was ready and at my table.

Jessica Hickey

Just had lunch here. My husband & I have been here several times & the barbecue is amazing!!! I’d say it is as good as Franklin Barbecue in Austin, TX. Kelsey took care of me really well making sure she accommodated my needs as I recently found out I have food allergies (ex: gluten intolerant & have to drink filtered water). Thank you Kelsey & Holy Smokin Butts BBQ for making my lunch experience pleasant once again

Cheryl Young

Love the smell and the flavors! My tri tip was perfect !!!!!! Definitely coming many more times in the future.

Nicholle McQuiston

Amazing food and great service! Love that brisket!

Sue Earley

Good food at reasonable prices. :)

Steve Zak

Great BBQ. Tender meat. Great sides. Great service too. Will go again.

Tim Watson

Very friendly staff. Food is amazing. Very good prices too.

Stephanie Varela

We've been eating from Holy Smokin Butts since they were serving in the truck. Tonight was the first time we decided to eat at their new restaurant. We were hesitant at first but figured we'd give it a try. Boy were we glad we did!! The restaurant was absolutely beautiful and clean. Our server, Dustin was one of the friendliest, funniest, out going waiters we've had in a long time!! Food was to die for! I had the brisket and my hubby had the tri-tip. We shared our plates and it was all delicious!! The amount of food we got for the price was insane!! We will be back!!

Kim Wettering

Had out of town family drop in, wanted to treat them to some primo brisket.. 1130 am says they are open but no one answered the phone and website said not taking orders.. Bummer.. had to go with plan B.. $150 order lost to the 'other guys' .. maybe try again-- eventually

Robert Wooldridge

Great BBQ sold by the pound and ribs by the bone! Had two ribs and smoked turkey dinner with cole slaw and toast for under $11.

Don Cox

Favorite things are the tri-tip and the ribs. Servers are super friendly.

Richard Williams

Damm good..2 thumbs up

Diann Shaffer

If you haven't tried Holy Smokin Butts BBQ… OMG!!! Soooooo Good!

Jerry Finley

Good good. Didn't really care for the fries though.

Ted Sparks

The food is outstanding. Best BBQ around. Service was fantastic. Staff is friendly and very concerned about you having a great experience.

Gary Volk

Wow! Great food and service. Mac n cheese worth the wait

Rebecca Pennington

This was the first time we've been here at this location, we had gone to the old location when they were still there. The service and food is good. We love the brisket and pulled pork, sauces a good as well... But I feel I can only give 4 stars right now, because why on earth are there absolutely no changing tables, or a place other than the floor, for people with tiny tots in either bathroom? It wont stop us from coming back, but if our child needs a diaper change, it kind of sucks to have to go do it out in the car like we did today.

letty schlieper

Smokin Butts BBQ reminded me if Texas Style BBQ. I loved it. And it made me a little homesick too.

John Coakley, Jr.

Fantastic restaurant! My family and I really enjoyed it. We ordered the "Family Feast" and a few other items, and everything tasted delicious. If I made one suggestion, it would be to add a vegetable to the menu - green beans, corn, etc...something typically served at a BBQ. The only vegetable type of item is cole slaw. Otherwise, we will visit this restaurant again in the future. And, they are military friendly, i.e. they offer military discounts. But, even if they didn't, it would be worth the evening visit! Definitely recommended!

Kelly Breeden

Not very impressed. Don't think I will return. Got there at 6 and they were out of ribs, Turkey and tri tip. And even Lemons for your tea. So I ordered the brisket with Mac and cheese and French fries for the sides. The brisket was very fatty, The Mac and cheese taste like it come out of A box, Good thing the portion was very small . Only eat 2 bites of it. The hubby ordered the pulled pork sandwich. Which had big fats of chunks throughout it.

Stevie Russo

Tri Tip tender, cut with a fork, good slaw + beans. Friendly service.

Thomas Spurlock

Grate food Choices wonderful staff and good parking

Linda Boling

We had lunch there today and the experience was great. The food was super and the server, Derrick, was so attentive and friendly. We will return...

Scott Humphrey

Very happy customer. Service was fast and friendly Ribs were AMAZING. Sauces were also amazing. Mustard my favorite. Bathroom clean. Portion size for fries is a bit small, so I ordered a second helping.

Elizabeth Knepp

Beautiful place. Decent food.

Ana Ramos

Great food and great service. Can't ask for anything more than that! Loved it!

Boettius Maximus

Overall the food was good. Fairly small portions for the prices which makes it hard to justify the cost. Meats are cooked right and high quality, potatoe salad good, Mac and cheese was OK at best.

Nicole Duke

Went finally for the first time last week and OMG was it so delicious. I got the pulled pork sandwich (in picture)

Eddie Maurice

Awesome pulled pork and ribs. Very friendly and attentive server. Nice, clean, air conditioned dining room with modern southwestern decor.

Anna Billings

Best ribs I've ever had!!!

Steve Noolson

I miss the old location. The new location has very slow service and the food is not nearly as good. I had gone to old location at least 5-6 times and it was always spot on. A customer at the new location was allowed to carry her dog (not a service dog) inside and hover right over the food warming area. Too bad, sometimes if it is not broke don't fix it. Don't think I will go back.

Frank Morgan

One of the best BBQ I've had in a while. Above average in all food categories, beans, potato salad,melt in your mouth tri tip smoking, good sausage, will try something different the next time. The rest of the review is pending. I like spending my money here , the food, and the service is excellent.

Christy Reinert

It was clean and fresh in the restaurant not greasy. It is a new location for them. Trying to pick your choice is made easy with the build your own. Picking your meats is easier and then can control a servings. I am told the pulled pork sandwich is huge. All of us that visited ordered pick and choose. Yum

Ed White

Good food, but go early. We arrived after 7:00 and the selections were running out.

Michael Valverde

BBQ was good. Lots of sauces to choose from. Loved the baked beans and the ribs.

Tomie Jan Sarver

The BBQ is excellent! Good smokey flavor but not over powering. Cook to perfection. Being a Tucsonian via Texas, this is really good Texas BBQ.

Gerry Hicks

Just had half a coyote sandwich and it was delicious. I could've eaten more but had had popcorn at the movies beforehand. The meat was tender, juicy, and flavorful. We were greeted warmly and directed to the take out corner. From the hostess, cashier, and bartender, each person was friendly and helpful. Definitely going back!

john wyatt

Awesome BBQ great prices and even better location glad they finally expanded. Will definitely recommend them

John Steffens

Very good sausage, pulled pork, and brisket. Only negative in no hot drinks.

Joshua Groch

Very very similar to Southern BBQ. Best in town I have experienced. Service was great too!

Went today with my son, he had the ribs and I had the tri-tip. Both were outstanding unfortunately the sides were just ok. Staff was great and very helpful. Will be back again. Cant wait till they open the restaurant.

Some of the best BBQ I have ever had. Great service!

Food is good. Although, I went in to pick up a to-go order and had a water bottle (a personal see-through flask, not a desani etc) since I just went to the gym and want to stay hydrated. This lady called me from across the room to tell me I cant have outside food or drinks with me, with a side of attitude. Ok I get it, you can argue that its in the name of safety regulations etc in case I choke on my own water and you dont want to be responsible, yet I dont get the urgency and attitude but ok, good job enforcing that rule! Are you also going to ban bottles that moms use to feed their babies?

It smells wonderful. The service was great and the brisket was amazing.

Rich Hill

First visit and so glad we did. Wow. Great brisket. Tender and tasty. Wife got sandwich with brisket and pulled pork. She says best ever. Tucson got lucky.

Just opened their new restaurant a week ago, went for dinner. Waiter was friendly and informative. Food was fast coming out. I chose pulled pork with potato salad and baked beens. Meat was tender, smoky but not too smoky. Beans were slightly sweet with big chunks of ham. Potato salad had a dill creamy sauce, both were excellent. Tasted my friends brisket, melt in your mouth. They run out of some meats if don't get there for lunch. Love supporting local places. Will be back and recommend to friends.

Damn good BBQ! Emily was a delight. The dining area is spacious and we'll appointed. Another gem for Tucson. I will definitely be back.

Dawn Mawhinney

Food was ok. I had the tri tip sandwich. Meat portion was ALOT. Didnt finish it . Potato salad way too salty. Service from waiter , was lousy. Ordered extra lemon for iced tea... he didnt bring it . Second time requesting , he did. No ice in iced tea, asked twice for a glass of ice . Finally got it . Wait time for meal was about 18 minutes . Meh.. I dont have to go back .

Deb Cruze

Amazing BBQ! Best in Tucson! Will definitely return.

Adam Wilkey

Yeah they moved to there new location and my meal barely had meat in it when i went to there original location they took care of you they switched up there menu and don't even tell you things are lil different i called and that's what they told me on the phone but i to ask yeah im not really happy i felt taken advantage of when i normal an always happy with my meal there. Yeah for what they gave it was a joke now i don't even want to go back there and I'm telling all my friends not to go there now.

The food was good as well as the waitress but not as good as I've been hearing from others. If say it's about average BBQ along with the prices. Good but not great.

Angel Santiago

Great BBQ restuarant. Very open spaces, clean, friendly staff and attentive services. The BBQ is awesome and sides. Very easy menu, not overwhelming to look at. Check it out!

We’ve been wanting to try this place because of the great reviews, but we were less than impressed. The buns were hard and the pound of pulled pork was more like 1/2 a pound. Maybe just an off night.

Carolyn Pijanowski

Ribs were very good and very nice atmosphere. Room enough for wheelchair and walker access inside.

Linda Hatfield

Good food & prices.

Gregory Eastman

Best BBQ ever. Great service and really nice place inside. A must.

Grant Smart

Great food and friendly service. Amazing brisket paired with their Mac and Cheese is hard to beat.. get there early because they do tend to sell out of brisket towards the end of day.
