Excellent ribs. Extremely meaty. Sides of beans and fries are good. Good onion rings. The house BBQ sauce is absolutely perfect.

The staff here was very friendly and fun to deal with, especially the cashier.
The food was good, but nothing to write home about. Don’t get me wrong, the meats were cooked perfectly, juicy and delicious. But the bark, my favorite part of smoked barbecue, was lacking some flavor and pepperiness.
The portion sizes were pretty decent and they run on average with what a lot of barbecue places charge

Worst “Texas” brisket I’ve ever had very bland, no seasoning on meat, hardly any smoke ring, if I had to guess they smoke it for a hour or two and finish it in ovens. Tasted like California roast beef.
Brisket could use a 50/50 salt pepper rub or even if they want to have a million dollar brisket use salt pepper garlic and lowerys seasoning. Brisket fat would render down and taste delicious and candy like melt in your mouth every bite.

I love armadillo willies. Itnisnone of very few places left to go for lunch in the area. As someone who has worked from home for a long time I know that the punctuation of a days work with a lunch break is important. So I go here a LOT and get the turkey avo sandwich or a burger. It is a little more expensive than I would like (soda is very expensive) but I get to sit in a booth and take a break from the stress of my normal work day.

Good food, only thing I didn't like were the ribs. They had a sweet dry rub I wasn't into and they were dry.

If you're looking for an intense smoked BBQ flavor, you won't find it here. The meats are cooked perfectly but it's lacking smoke flavor. Food plating and presentation is great. Dining room is excellent with adequate seating. Nice atmosphere for family or group of various sizes. We have been here a few times and always order the BBQ Rib and Brisket Platter.
The BBQ sauces are okay. The corn salad and peanut slaw are tasty.

Definitely not as good as it used to be. This place no longer has that Texas feel and the food was just alright. They were playing some weird new age ambient music instead of country. The ambiance felt very off for it being a Texas BBQ joint.

Just love this place. The ribs are all right, but everything else's really good. Especially the brisket fire hamburgers too.

It was my first time there. The food was good! Definitely recommend the corn muffin!! The atmosphere was nice and it wasn't too crowded for a Friday. The chef's behind the counter were super nice!!
The women's washroom could use some work tho. The guy in the office or register could have been a little more friendly too.
But overall it was a good food spot. And not too busy for Friday lunch.

This was my second visit to Armadillo. I ordered the small chicken BBQ plate, and while the food was tasty, the portion size was disappointingly small. That’s the main reason I gave it 3 stars. The meal cost $18 plus tip, which felt a bit pricey for the amount served.

TRI tip sandwich and fries were solid. Don't recommend getting fish tacos from q BBQ place. Didn't expect fried cod fish tacos in California. Black beans weren't good.
