Willamette Valley Smokehouse is such a great find if you love BBQ and a cozy, casual atmosphere…read more The space has that welcoming Oregon vibe -- firepits glowing outside, live music setting the tone, and plenty of room to relax with friends or family. The BBQ is exactly what you want: flavorful, hearty, and clearly made with care. But the real standout is their Friday Seafood Fest. They serve whole Dungeness crab and BBQ oysters, and it's easily one of the best weekly specials in South Salem. Fresh, fun, and a perfect pairing with the smokehouse vibe. Whether you're stopping in for comfort food, live music, or a laid‑back night out, this spot consistently delivers great food and a great atmosphere. A solid local favorite.

Since it was kind of rainy and chilly out, we sat under a heater in the covered seating area and ate our food. My friend ordered jalapeño poppers and I stole one - excellent!

I took half my meal home for breakfast the next day and it was just as good heated up as it was fresh the day before. Easy access from I-5, lots of parking and plenty of tables. Go get you some!

It's standard food cart ambiance, parking was a little weird, but not horrible. Right off I-5 at the Jefferson/Millersburg exit (238 I think?). The ribs were tender and delicious without sauce, but when you add a little mango habanero sauce it kicks them up a notch... the brisket was great. The pulled pork was my least favorite of the three meats I got, but even that was tasty and juicy. I got the BBQ beans which were quite good if nothing fancy. The cowboy corn I like but the jury is out for my family... needless to say it will all disappear. The servers were friendly, even in 95 degree heat. As far as value goes, there's enough food here to provide my family of 4 with two decent meals each. For $75 that's not bad especially since everything tastes good. Give'em a try!

After being at Matt's on Mississippi a great number of times and trying brisket at every other Bbq place we decided to stop in on a Wednesday at lunch time. I got the brisket plate he got brisket and pulled pork combo. Brisket was taste wise very good. One of the best I have had outside of Texas. Good smoke and came with a side and toast. Not as tender as Matt's but taste wise it was maybe a little better. Coleslaw was good, toast was not really toasted. Overall a great place to get me some brisket if I'm in the Newberg area.

My husband treated me to the best Valentine's Day meal i could have asked for at Whuttle's BBQ in…read morethe Lancaster Drive Walmart Supercenter in Salem. I'm Southern and I've eaten a lot...a LOT... of BBQ, from home cooked at my family meals and events, at roadside stands, food trucks, mom-and-pop joints, and nice sit-down restaurants. As part of my work as a corporate trainer, driving all over the South and Midwest was my daily commute, but BBQ was my daily off-work mission. I've eaten a LOT of BBQ! Whuttle's BBQ is not Southern quality, it is HIGH Southern quality. I wasn't very hungry when we went out tonight so I just ordered the BBQ chicken sandwich. My husband ordered the same plus the mac-n-cheese and we both had Whuttle's own fruit punch. I took a bite of the husband's mac-n-cheese to sample it...before he threatened me with the loss of a hand if I ate any more...and it was, to make it simple, the best mac-n-cheese I've ever had, and I've eaten a good bit of that around the country, also. The chicken was moist and tender with a perfect smoky aroma and flavor. Their BBQ sauce was just right and the sandwich had just the right amount - a flavor boost for the perfect chicken but not overpowering nor was the sandwich swimming in it. Just right. The bun was fresh and soft and was ideal. That fruit punch was so good I could have drank a gallon. It made the sandwich a perfect match. I realize I keep using the word 'perfect' in this review. That's not an accident. On top of the wonderful food and drink and speedy service was the Down Home friendliness of the folks there. We learned that the inspiration comes from their Arkansas roots and among great Southern BBQ, the BBQ I've had in Arkansas stood out from the rest, and honestly Whuttle's would make even great Arkansas BBQ seem average by comparison. It really is that good. We live just a mile or so away so we'll be regulars now. If you like BBQ and you really like great BBQ, you're missing out until you eat here.

It was Valentine's Day and my husband and I had been craving BBQ from a while. Our luck with BBQ…read morehas been sub par at best. The last thing we needed to hear was that Whuttle's like their competitors were out of BBQ. Luckily for us Whuttle's far exceeded our expectations. Words can't even begin to describe how wonderful Whuttle's is. The dining area isn't overly decorated except for these two murals that are beautiful and adds charm to the restaurant. Upon arrival the staff was very friendly. We were asked if this had been our first time. Since it was the wonderful woman took the time to explain the menu. Honestly everything sounded delicious. My husband and I both had the BBQ chicken sandwich, Whuttle's fruit punch and a side of their Mac and Cheese. In no time we received our fruit punch which was brought to us with a warm smile, and then the food a few minutes later. Starting with the sandwich and after the first bite I was astonished. The sauce was flavorful and perfectly coated the chicken which was juicy and tender, but not overly so that the bun was soggy. Before I knew it my sandwich was gone. The Mac and cheese was also perfect in taste. It definitely wasn't your standard box Mac and cheese. It was seasoned and had no artificial flavor taste that box Mac and cheese has so I'm grateful that boxed man and cheese is not in their kitchen. My husband suspects it's seasoned with thyme which definitely gives it such a delicious flavor. All this amazing food was washed down with their Whuttle's fruit punch which I have no words to describe how delicious it is, and best of all the had a little bit of ice so you get more drink than ice. Best of all when we finished our meal a nice woman whom I can assume is the owner asked us how the food was. My husband is from Georgia so he and the owner had a lovely conversation. We both mentioned the food was immaculate. Considering my husband was raised In the south he has high expectations for BBQ. Overall Whuttle's BBQ is the quintessential BBQ restaurant. I couldn't think of any negative even if I tried. My husband and I will be coming back considering it's just right around the corner from us.
