I remembered when they moved to that spot YEARS ago. Of course over the years things change. My husband ordered takeout, two of the three meat combos. We enjoyed the meat, potato salad (with less skin) and green beans.
But the Mac & Cheese…..NOO
Not the Mac & Cheese we’re used to.

Never again! Today I traveled from San Rafael to Berkeley to get some BBQ. $115 bucks including tip for 2 4 ways. Worst BBQ service have had in years. No he ribs were so dry you have to eat them in the shower. They were dry and hard. The last he brisket was cut paper thin and was as dry as the ribs with no seasonings at all. The chicken was so snap them m not sure if it was chicken or Cornish Hen? The hot links were horrible with no taste and all the food was cold. The potato salad was horrible and the mac&cheese was decent. Small portions, horrible food, and high prices. This is the worst bbq I have had in years. It’s not just Everett & Jones, it’s almost impossible to find good bbq period. I remember flint’s back in the day and made be a couple of more but, this was an absolute waste of money, gas and time. Ridiculous to charge folks an arm and a leg for below average food. They should be ashamed putting out the food they put out today.

No lie I think I have a crush on the cashier today. lol anywho he was very nice and hospitable fr. The customer service was out out of this world thanks again sir and a message to him “You ain’t look like no damn stud in the family photo”. The cashier made the experience with his fine self. The food was so good my first time at this location and I honestly enjoyed this one the most by far…. You all BETTER NOT FORGET TO TIP….

Yesterday 10/19/2025. I spent over $140 for four link dinners — total waste. The beef links were burnt, dry, and hard, and the mac & cheese was clumpy, dry, and burnt. Absolutely disgusting.

They should be ashamed to serve food like this. It’s clear they don’t care about quality or their customers. Everett & Jones has completely lost its way and is tarnishing it's legacy.

Ruined my family members birthday dinner. We had to buy food from Smokin Woods to make up for this disrespectful mess. Never again will I ever, ever spend money with Everett & Jones.

This location is not it, I went on my lunch break very excited because I love the Oakland spot and this particular spot is over priced, they don't make corn bread and the food over all was a disappointment I paid 80 for 2 meals and there was barely any chicken just bone and fat so I'm definitely sticking with the Oakland location way better food quality and the atmosphere is welcome. Fyi I went to the Oakland location recently and paid 150 for 4 meal combos with drinks and extra corn bread and it was still less expensive then the Berkeley site.

Very disappointed in the cutomer service and food. Got a 3 way combo and the meat was drenched in bbq sauce with no real flavor. The baked beans were dry with no flavor. Definitely not worth $45 or returning in the future.

I came there Saturday between 6 and 630 for $36 and change.I feel that at least the baked beans could taste like real baked beans and could be done.Though beans was hard.
