This is my absolute favorite BBQ in town! Portion sizes could be better, but sooo delicious! The baby back ribs fall off the bone!! And I’m obsessed with all their sides, especially the chili beans. Tip: ask for the spicy BBQ sauce.

Everyone always talks about Firestone and Old SLO, but CJ's is by far the BEST bbq slo has to offer!! We got the baby back ribs, fried catfish, potato skins, and onion rings. All were a solid 11/10. The ribs melted off the bone and the catfish was seasoned so well. Onion rings were the best ones I've had in a long time. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving BBQ.

It was super hot inside the restaurant and was uncomfortable to sit down and eat. We did sit down tho bc I needed to rest a bit. Hostess told us that all the customers complain about how hot it is in there. There is no fan and no AC. We ordered the baby back ribs and they were tender and bbq sauce was good but there was a flavor of the lighter fluid on the meat. 🍖 the Mac n cheese was hella dry and not good at all. Worst Mac n cheese ever. Yams were decent but served too hot....
