Awesome lunch! I had the burrito bowl with chicken which was a huge portion. Husband got the duo meat ribs/brisket. Black eyed corn was a neat surprise. About 10 different sauces to choose from. Topped it off with a giant banana pudding and two tee shirts for souvenirs. A+++ would eat here again when we are back in town!

I travel into the Chantilly/DC area weekly for school and work and always make it a point to get lunch at Willards before my long drive back home. I haven't had a single dissapointing dish during all of my visits and recently had their pork and cheese Philly which was awesome. I highly recommend this place for lunch or dinner.

Lots of great BBQ options. My favorite is the smoked meatloaf, but I don’t think I’ve ever disliked a choice. From the standard pulled pork to jerk chicken, all the meats are great choices. And the sides are all solid and standard BBQ fare, none will disappoint.

Not halal.

First time there while in the shopping center, randomly. So good! incredible service (employee handed me tinfoil to cover the additional sauces I got so they don't leak in the bag without asking) and I literally have food for like 4 meals and only purchased 2! Just $40 for 2, 1/2 slabs of ribs with 2 sides and cornbread each order!! So yummy!!

A favorite for 22 years! Smoked meat loaf...Mr Willards Turkey you name it! Best mashed potatoes ANYWHERE.

I personally didn't eat here. My husband, who is a Willard, was in the area for work and I stumbled upon this gem of a place for him. He loved the food so much I can't recall how many times I door dashed from them for him. Thank yall so much for cooking for my husband so many nights. He loved it!!!

Outstanding BBQ and Service Every Time!

Willard’s BBQ never disappoints! The service is always fast and friendly, making it a smooth and enjoyable experience from the moment you walk in. The food is absolutely delicious — rich, smoky flavors and everything cooked to perfection. The portion sizes are generous, especially for the price, which makes it a fantastic value. Whether it’s your first visit or your tenth, Willard’s consistently delivers top-notch BBQ. Highly recommend!

I have been a consistent visitor to this restaurant since 2011 and think this is one of the top BBQ joints in NOVA. The cashier, Joselyn was friendly, helpful and a nice smile. I typically order their 2 item combo with burnt ends and sausage. I also love their ribs too and ordered 1/3 slab (4 bones) because they're falling off the bone and tasty. Their gold sauce and hot Xxx sauces are muy caliente and are a must but not a big fan of bathing my que with sauces.

I also make the trip from Tysons and have visited their Reston location but think the Chantilly location is superior because of the staff, ambiance and location. Bonus: I have also eaten at their sister location in Newton, MA called Blue Ribbon BBQ.

Great bbq spot. Quick service

Wonderful

I gave it another try.
Still underwhelmed but it's not bad. A few more options would be good, offer more sauces, etc..
