This place is an old Big Boy or at least looks like it. Randomly wanted bbq without having to…read moredrive 30 plus minutes to get it so checked this place out in person. Place just feels like it needs a good scrub; that's how it left me feeling. You also will need to change your clothes after cause you can't escape the smoke. Not sure how anyone volunteers to sit on what looks like a nice patio while the meat smoker is sitting right next to it. Even inside feels a bit grimey and smoky but if you like that smell you'd be in heaven. Hostess was nice but the waitress seemed a bit on edge/ feminist/ snotty. Not too friendly and made some comments that made me wanna let her know she can eff off at any time. Commentary about who's paying between a husband and wife or claiming you get two beers out of one line (that's a new one for me... I wouldn't want two different types of beer coming out of the same "line") and that the fact I didn't like the flat, "soft" ipa I sampled, as it tasted old or just not very good, trying to just prove me wrong... seemed like she had it out for me as man. Also wouldn't allow my kid to have chicken and fries instead of ribs from the kids menu so had to order a full 1/2 smoked chicken instead. Don't care for her attitude at all. Food was eh. Couple of bright spots- beans were smoky and sweet, good mix. The chicken, both wing and 1/2 were overly smoked and the skin became hard in a lot of parts. Had to scrape the chicken off the skin to eat it. Mac and cheese was good too. Cajun slaw was just vinegary without much of a Cajun punch. Queso brisket dip was on the sweet side. Didn't really get much brisket that I could find or taste in the dip. We couldn't finish all our food; just got sick of the flavor/ taste. Interesting sauce with the rock n rye Faygo bbq sauce. Could definitely taste the pop influence. Their XXX spicy sauce was okay; wouldn't say it's ghost pepper or unbearable. It's got some after spice which I liked. Really like the attempt they are making with the place and I hope they get their meats from the neighboring butcher as I've heard good things about the market place meats in the same strip. Oh they also charge you a 3.5% admin fee with every card purchase... p

The food was all cooked very well. Even turkey which typically dries out - was very juicy and smokey. The selection of sauces; all were different and flavorful.

There was no need to apologize.... if they have this long of a line at 2pm... it must be worth the wait, and it was. We are a decent ways away from this location - but will definitely make a trip back!

While I did feel they hit a bit of a rough patch about a year ago, I'm thrilled to say the magic is back and better than ever. The brisket? Incredibly tender with that crave-worthy bark and deep smoky flavor. The ribs? Fall-off-the-bone fantastic. The mac and cheese? Rich, creamy, and crowned with the perfect crunchy topping. Even the beans and cornbread are stars in their own right. You can tell the team has dialed things back in--attention to flavor, texture, and presentation is right where it should be. And the ambiance? Casual, welcoming, and exactly what you want from a spot serving comfort food this good. That said, I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5--not because anything was off this time, but because consistency is key. If they keep this current momentum going, I'll be happy to bump it to 5 on my next visit. So if you've been sleeping on J Bird lately, consider this your wake-up call. They're back, baby.

I was out on this side of town and had to eat immediately. My stomach was growling and it was…read moregetting ugly over here. I quickly located places to eat near me, and this place came up. I've never heard of it before and saw that it just opened? Plus, it was less then a mile from where I was at, which made it much easier to decide. (Plus, I wasn't in the mood for fast food.) Pulling in, the place is in a strip mall and reasonably easy to find. There's a decent amount of seating here for up to parties of 4. You order at the counter and the menu's overhead. (it's also online.) They have fabulous lunch specials here which I got for $9.99. It's a meat of your choice (to many to list), Texas toast and one side. Plenty of side options to choose from, so I went with mac and cheese. Meal deal also comes with a drink, and fortunately they have fountain pop, which is important to me. They also have some canned options but who cares about that. LOL. I saw that they also have larger meals for up to 10 people? I think it's like $55 or something. Sounds good if you're having a gathering and need to feed people. Prices here seem fair for what you get, and they have a decent amount of options. Anyway, my food came out and it was FABULOUS. I loved my brisket. Mac and cheese was awesome as well, and the Texas toast was good as well. Portions were ample and filling. They have 2 BBQ sauces here. One's the house sauce and two others that I didn't like. I don't like the yellow looking BBQ sauce that's out on the market. I think it's a version of South Carolina's form of BBQ sauce? It's to vingerish for me. Anyway, the house specialty BBQ sauce was fantastic and really made the brisket taste even better. Overall I'm happy that this place opened. I guess there's only one other location in the country and it's in Monroe Ohio. So, if you can, drive here and check it out. You'll thank me later!

The chips and salsa that it came with were good - loved the fresh chips and I would definitely get these again!

There doesn't seem to be anything "special" about this chicken. It's the way they serve it that sets them apart-- piled on top of things, or things piled on top of the chicken. Sandwiches, fries, tacos, bowls, salads, mac & cheese... you name it, they'll put their chicken on it! Once they introduced pulled pork, Taco Tuesday specials, and unique takes on salads, the menu opened up for me! (Not everyone loves fried chicken, so they cater to us all!) I haven't tried as many items as my husband, but I do love their salads, waffle fries, and sides. He devours anything and everything they offer, especially the tacos, sandwiches, and mashed potatoes. ND's staff is extremely friendly, always accommodating, and they keep the restaurant clean and sanitary. Our orders are consistently made fast and fresh, which is why we keep coming back! Never any issues getting carryout here... There was only one time when we got home and they forgot the ranch dressing we asked for. (Only disappointed because it's SO GOOD!!) We can't wait to see what they come up with next, and will continue to pop in for carryout from time to time! (I'm hoping they introduce flatbreads soon!!!)
