Let me start off by saying that my husband and I LOVE Willie Jewell’s. We always get amazing service, food, and a relaxing atmosphere to enjoy our food in. We love this place so much we decided to cater it for our wedding which was this past Saturday and let me tell you, they knocked it out of the park! Rebecca is absolutely amazing and made sure everything was fresh, organized and just overall perfect. Not only did they pile on the food for our 120+ guest list but everything was so fresh! Thank you Rebecca and Willie Jewell’s for making us and our guests so happy! We are surely long term customers?

I’m so disappointed! I’m not sure when there was a shift in change but this is my Togo order of a bunked burger & supposed to be a double order of fries! If you look at other pictures posted you can see this is a single order. This was not worth $19.00 very disappointing.

I'm from Kansas City (no stranger to bbq), and was in town for work. Got recommended Willie Jewell's for a good local BBQ spot, and decided to try it out. I was really impressed by the food, especially the sausage had really good flavor to it. The wait staff were very helpful with making recommendations. Turkey and pulled pork were both moist, but the brisket was a little on the dry side, but not too bad. Cornbread, fries, and fried pickles were all very tasty, baked beans were so-so. Overall I thought it was a great local BBQ stop, and I've now eaten there twice within the last week, and recommended to a few others who have also tried it out and liked it within the last week. I will definitely be spreading the word, and coming back next time I'm in town!

Food is always fresh service is super friendly. It’s clean. During busy hours it takes a little longer to get your food And if you have a large party, it would take some time to get your food.Parking: There is parking it’s slim parking in tight spaces.

Overpriced!

It was my first time trying this food and I wasn’t impressed. In my opinion it was the typical chain restaurant food. The macaroni was frozen and had no flavor. The chopped barbecue had no flavor until I put their commercial bbq saw on it. Definitely overrated. I’ll stick to my mom and pops in town.

This place was recommended to me by a local. I was skeptical, and when I pulled up it looked like a stereotypical southern bbq joint. But first indications of the quality of the food - were when I found out the pulled pork and ribs were sold out by 2pm. I ordered the brisket and smoked chicken and was floored by the brisket and chicken!! Totally smoked to perfection and juicy gooey tenderness that fell apart in my mouth. The quality was also great - not a single complaint from me. If I have one criticism, it’s only that they have 3 beers on tap (but it’s a family bbq joint so that’s kind of a meh critique) Needless to say I will be back.

First time visitor and last time visit. After leaving a doctors appointment I had the taste for some bbq, I decided to try Willie b jewels for the first time.I was greeted by the cashier/manager Tiffany and she was extremely impolite as I was short .50 cents for a meal and a drink. She basically talked down on me as if I was trying to get over on her, And was one of the bums outside.I told her that I would just pay with my card instead of cash and she threw a whole fit about that.I then decided to walk over to the gas station like the gentleman that I am to get money from the atm so that I could make it right.As a disabled veteran I wasn’t mentally prepared to deal with the situation as I was just recently getting over a breakdown.Never will I spend $20.50 for a plate of dry meat. Never again ?? treat others with kindness as you never know the battles they may be fighting, wasn’t worth the experience. Thank you!

Barnyard burger was solid, fries were as well. Today is Friday and the back of the cookie says Saturday. It may as well be a brick. Handing out week old cookies is wild. I received and finished my food before my friend (who ordered directly after me) even got his food. Wife found hair in her food. Everyone was super nice though, staff gets a 10/10. Definitely not coming back.

I really wanted to love this place!!! The people and the atmosphere got the two stars . The food left me flat. Chicken was dry. I told them that I was an expert BBQ Guy and they gave me reheated chicken very dry and no flavor at all. It's no brag just facts I was with, Sonny's Real pit, Dickeys BBQ, and Norris's Famous in my Restaurant career and this chicken would not make it's way in my Brunswick Stew.

Willie Jewell's never fails to deliver fantastic Barbecue. Everything about the place is high quality. If I ever go to another place, Barbecue or anything else, I usually end up wishing I had gone to Willie Jewell's!
