    Big Johnny
    James T.

    First time here, came based on reviews and man it didn't disappoint I got the big johnny. Brisket, pickles, mustard, bbq sauce, onions and chilies. It's a heart sammich and so freaking good. Brisket is tender and super flavorful had a mild smokey taste, the bbq sauce was pretty damn amazing. Mildly sweet had a nice tang and savor taste to it. I woulda drank this out the bottle. I got here just before the crowd started rolling in. I can see why they've been around since 1955. I'll be back to check the reat of the menu out.

    Wow! We drove from Arizona today to do some shopping and check this place out! Absolutely worth the drive! Lola was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! We got the Big Johnny and a regular Johnny. Barely able to finish the Big Johnny it was so much meat! The bread was toasted and so tasty! We absolutely will be back!

    Finished the plate

    Food was awesome! Great home cooking flavors. The coleslaw was a unique wonderful treat. Very friendly.

    Small with several tables, friendly staff

    We have been wanting to stop here for a while. They are located in a small plaza on Doniphan. Stopped on a Saturday for lunch. The staff was very friendly. They obviously have regulars that eat here as the staff knew several clients that walked in. Service was fast which is always great at a barbecue place. Ribs are served only on Saturday. We each had the 1/2 slab of rib plate with two sides. We ordered the chili beans and cole slaw. The ribs were mouth watering, fall off the bone tasty, and so did not need any barbecue sauce. My husband ate his with barbecue sauce and said the sauce was not sweet and was a great brisket sauce and not a Kansas City sauce. The chili beans were the best I've eaten. They were cooked with ground meat and not spicy. The cole slaw was tasty and had chunks of pineapple. Normally, we do not like pineapple in our cole slaw, but didn't realize it until 1/2 the slaw was eaten. It did not make the slaw sweet. Other than my husband's ribs, these are the best I've eaten in El Paso. We'll be back. Can't wait to go back!

    Have been coming here for years, it never disappoints! Must stop for all my out of town family. The Big Johnny is always a favorite.

    We stopped for a quick lunch meeting. I was happy to see we were the only ones there - the entire…read moretime. The place is super cute but could have been a bit cleaner. There were crumbs on our table. I also noticed a dog in the booth next to us, I think it belonged to staff. Call me old school but I didn't grow up with animals where I eat so that was interesting. He was a super good doggie though. The service was great, fast, and food was fabulous. I had the $19 Poke Bowl. I ordered before I noticed the price. Yikes! I had that, a water, and their fried oreos (to go), for a total of $26, after tip. Yikes! Not sure I can afford that again unless I do appetizer only.

    Came across Grown Together for lunch, not realizing it was a vegan restaurant until I was already…read moreseated. As a regular meat eater, it's not necessarily the type of restaurant I would be attracted to but the service & meal was very pleasant. Jake was on point with his service & recommended the daily specials - which included the "meat"ball sub sandwich with salad. I also opted in for the Mac & Cheese appetizer because it sounded great. Ordered a manzanita drink (drink selection is a little different than many other restaurants). The Mac & Cheese appetizer was delicious! Actually, my favorite part of the meal! The sub sandwich came with a simple green salad that was a nice combo. The sandwich bread was soft & warm and included meatballs covered in sauce & melted cheese. Not bad at all but due to my own personal preference the meatballs weren't my personal favorite. In the future, I think I'll lean toward options that don't feature "meat" because of my preference but for those who look for or prefer vegan options, go visit Jake & check out this new downtown El Paso eatery!

After reviewing their site I decided to eat here. Oh my gosh, now Juicery is one of my favorite places in El Paso! I had their chickpeas & scrambled that were delicious. It is prepared with chickpea flour, onions, green peppers, fennel, kale and potatoes; with a side of grapes. I wanted one of their cold pressed juices and they have so many options that I wanted to try. I ended up ordering #R4 Beet, apple, ginger and lime. It was fantastic! Before they brought me my meal one of the employees brought me a complimentary cream soup made of Poblano peppers. They have 3 locations and I mentioned to the manager that I live in Las Cruces. He said that they have lots of customers from Las Cruces. I suggested that they should open a location there. I will be back with my wife next visit to El Paso.

There's other juice bars that are using concentrated juice already made but this place actually juices the carrots and apples! I walked in and the cashier immediately greeted me. He asked what I'm looking for and recommended a couple drinks. I got one with cocoa and coffee and it was very good! I also ordered the R5 juice which has carrots and ginger which is my favorite
