Empire Armadillo BBQ & Deli Reviews
I made my first order from Empire Armadillo BBQ through DoorDash today. As a huge fan and loyal customer of Armadillo Willy’s, I was so sad when they closed most of their restaurants.
However, the ribs I received today from Empire were the best I’ve EVER had. They were incredibly delicious and I’m already planning to visit this place frequently.
Thank you for excellence in cuisine at an affordable price! We love the food and the friendly & efficient customer service, in a clean bright environment! We drive from Fremont for pulled pork, ribs, and banana pudding! OMG 😳 I ❤️ Empire Armadillo in Sunnyvale.
Fantastic South Bay BBQ! If you liked Armadillo Willy's, you'll love Empire Armadillo. My go-to is the regular boneless chicken plate with the chicken tortilla soup side, plus the St Louis ribs (pka Texas Ribs). My favorite Bay Area BBQ!

Empire Armadillo BBQ & Deli is a welcoming restaurant in Sunnyvale that offers high-quality barbecue and a warm atmosphere. The new owner, passionate about Armadillo Willy's, leased the space and hired experienced staff, including a head chef and pitmaster, resulting in an improved and larger menu. Guests can enjoy delicious brisket, tri-tip, and the restaurant’s tasty corn muffins. The cornbread remains just as good as before, and the restaurant features a tribute to Apple/tech in its decor. The staff is friendly and attentive, ready to replace dishes or ensure a great experience. The menu also includes favorites like a small boneless chicken plate with chicken tortilla soup and extra ribs to share. The switch to a Coke Freestyle fountain offers a variety of soft drinks. Overall, Empire Armadillo BBQ & Deli is a great spot for satisfying BBQ cravings and enjoying a friendly, inviting environment.
