“This pho spot was okay. The restaurant was clean, and the food overall was decent. We ordered pho and egg rolls—both were good, though the meat in the pho was a bit on the dry side, and the egg rolls were slightly overcooked. The broth had good flavor, and the service was friendly, making for a pleasant experience. They have limited parking on the back of the restaurant.“

The whole process with them went so smoothly, they delivered our food timely and we received TONS of great reviews on the food. Their catfish was AMAZING and the corn bread and green beans with bacon were a hit. If I ever had to do another large event they will be number one choice. thank you guys so much for taking our wedding to the next level! Taylor and James Roberts“

“So good! Probably the best BBQ in Portland. I had the burnt ends and my friend had the ribs. Both were fantastic. Great beers from Little Beast Brewing too. Will definitely be back.“

“Had the three meat option with pulled pork, brisket, and ribs and they were all absolutely amazing. We are visiting from San Diego where Phil's BBQ reign supreme and I think JJ's is on par, if not better, than Phil's! Not only that, Tim's service was exceptional; it made a wonderful lunch experience for me and my family.“

“Good bq w beer and reasonable prices 🐷 Cannot wait to get the meatball sandwich or the Mac & cheese. Best coleslaw 😋“

“Let me just start by saying that it is hard to impress this Missouri boy with BBQ! The pulled pork sandwich was excellent (though a bit salty) and the sauce tangy. The Mac and cheese was excellent as was the Apple coleslaw.

I ordered at the First Friday event in Milwaukie. Only thing I’d ask is maybe a choice between pulled pork and brisket.“

“Came here for brunch on a Sunday and got a table right away so already doing good. I got the poutine and partner got the Blink pancakes. The pancakes were alright but the poutine was great. Always nice to get decent BBQ and the brisket on the poutine hit the spot. The poached eggs and fries were equally awesome too. I'll be back to try the dinner menu for sure and see if the BBQ holds up.“

“Excellent service and the best food!“

“The food is always delicious, get the bread pudding it huge and u won't regret it. They're always busy during dinner, so occasionally the service can get a little slow, but the servers have always been really nice and apologetic whenever they have fallen behind. The nachos don't have a lot of meat but they were also delicious.
Please put more meat on your nachos.“

“So good. All of it. Fresh, clean flavors. The humans working there take pride in what they serve, as they should. Each dish is executed correctly!“

“Hands down the best fried chicken sandwich in Portland (amid much competition). The chicken is super juicy, and the breading and fixings are all perfectly balanced, but their house-made hot sauce is definitely the showstopper of this sando (be sure to ask to add this!) I got mine with a side of truffle oil golden fried potatoes, and a green goddess radicchio salad. Sadly I was too full to try one of the soft serve sundae specials this time, but I plan to save room during my next visit!“

“The idea of two meats is just an illusion. I got the brisket and he got the two meats. Well the two meats put together equal my one servings of meats. The. Brisket was dry great smoke taste to it but just to dry ( I guess I'm use to Texas best bbq truck stops). For my first time in there I guess I didn't expect the concept of grab a tray and stand in line more of a family dinner“

“Definitely delicious BBQ!“

“first time here and i absolutely loved it!! i ordered takeout but when i went in to pick it up, the atmosphere was super warm and cozy. the food was hot, fresh, and delicious. i got the brisket with mild bbq, pork spare ribs with sweet bbq, mash potatoes and coleslaw. the mash potatoes were warm and the gravy was the perfect amount of savory. the coleslaw had just the right amount of sweetness, and the meat was seasoned and cooked to perfection. i will definitely be back!“

“Just like southern bbq!! They have all the good stuff and desert. Banana pudding oh my.“

“I ordered my food through Uber Eats. I was hoping for a little more brisket in the brisket chili mac. I received a lot of sauce and beans and what seemed like no meat. Maybe I just got a bad scoop. The food was good, well seasoned, not too salty, and it had a lot going on with peppers and different cheeses.“

“I’ve been coming to eat here every week and its been some of my favorite food ever and good vibes.“
