The service was great; our server was attentive and knowledgeable on the food and business. Jerry himself was there and greeted us as soon as we came in. In terms of the vibe, this is a great casual atmosphere, with a full bar, and live music offerings. Now for the FOOD! This is easily some of the best BBQ I've had anywhere near STL in some years. The smoked wings were DELECTABLE, I ate every morsel off the bone. My boyfriend liked his ribs as well. The house sauce is very vinegar heavy, which I personally love, great flavor! And even the sides, were all PERFECT. The potato salad? Creamy, seasoned, just enough mustard. The beans? Well-balanced, perfectly flavored, with just enough sweet to Smokey ratio. The fries? Seasoned to perfection, crunchy, crisp. I can't wait to come back and try more of the bbq. And if that wasn't enough, they have a real deal wood-fire pizza oven right in the middle of the restaurant that I will definitely be giving a shot. Cheers to Jerry, he is doing something right!

Of the many places to grab some lunch at we came here mostly because everyone in our group just wanted BBQ and some beer so JB's is what it came down to! Of the many choices here it was all about the pulled pork nachos for me as that just sounded what was good and it soo much so as it was piled with pulled pork on those circle nacho chips with that yummy fake cheese, salsa, jalapeños, and sour cream let me say that it was oh soo good as it was just exactly what it should be! My friend Anthony (Coaster Guy 101) ordered a pulled pork sandwich it came out on a pretzel bun with sidewinder fries it looked really good and he said it was really good so with both of us enjoying our lunch it was a great choice for us as well as the rest of our group! They also have Coke Freestyle machines here 3 of them to be precise so it was a nice change from the soda that can be found everywhere else in the park! JB's also accepts Dinning Pass for many of the items on their menu so definitely keep that in mind when searching for what's good in the park because you will definitely find some of that here! Overall it's BBQ inside the park and it's definitely worth a Dinning Pass credit because it's totally tasty in that Q kinda way so make your way here and you will enjoy what was good just like we did!

I looked through the menu and ordered something for myself as well. Came during lunch time and it was crowded. Not a big place so you have to scoot around to not be in the way but you can manage. Staff greets you as you walk in and very helpful and friendly when ordering. I ordered the food to go and it came out within a decent time. Food ordered: Whole slab of ribs, mac n cheese, bbq chicken nachos, brisket dinner, beans, fries, peach cobbler, hushpuppies. I'm so glad I decided to eat bbq with this because this food was delicious. I have never wanted to go back to a bbq resturant as I have with this place. We ordered this sweet and savory sauce that taste great too. Definitely a must try. The best bbq in this area hands down. Meat was flavorful, beans had a spicy kick to them. The cobbler was a tad sweet for me but still delicious. My husband devoured his and took mine (I was taking too long to eat it, haha). We will be back

All were cooked well but under smoked for my liking. The sides we tried were all fresh but again, just good not great. We will try Gastropit again but honestly have had better tasting barbecue at nearby competitors. I know it is relatively new to the scene so overall, it was a good experience!

My fiancé and I have been on a Route 66 "kick" lately. Somehow, this place flew under my radar, but…read moreI am glad that I found it! I love an authentic Route 66 stop, and this is certainly one of those. From the road, it's difficult to tell how big the place actually is. Once inside, it opens up and really shares its character. We went on a Thursday evening, and it was packed, but not uncomfortable. There was plenty of room for everyone. Our server was friendly and efficient, and she seemed genuinely invested in customer experiences. Our food was outstanding, and there was plenty of it! We even had room for dessert: a chocolate chip cookie and ice cream. It was the size of a dinner plate! This was an outstanding indulgence, and I can't wait to have another one, as soon as my glycemic index allows. LOL The restrooms were pretty darn rough. Urine all over the floor, overflowing trash can, filthy toilet, etc., gave the impression that it hadn't been cleaned since the Route 66 days. Here, I am not focusing on that, since it's not what we came here for. Our overall experience was fantastic and memorable. We look forward to returning to this special historic establishment.

I'd heard of this place a number of times over the years and thought it was time to check it out…read more Big mistake. First off, the place is old and dingy and needs an update badly. It's just kind of dirty everywhere. Our table had that tacky feel to it. There were dirty dishes piled up in a lot of places and about 30 or so dirty glasses piled up by the bar. Our server wasn't great. We waited a few minutes before she came over and took our drink order. She never delivered our drinks to us. After a while, we realized they were just sitting on the bar. The bartender saw us looking at them and delivered them to our table. After all that, the drinks were not good. We questioned whether there was actually any alcohol in them. We were finally able to order our entrees. I wanted a pizza. I was told they weren't doing pizza, brisket, and something else that night. She said I could have flatbread instead, so I got that. I ordered it with pepperoni, pineapple (yeah, I know - but I like it), and red onion. It was not good. The sauce was bad. It has to be plain label crap from a store somewhere. The toppings were few and far between. I didn't even eat half of it and just gave up. When our server asked if I wanted a box, I said no because it wasn't good. She said, sorry - didn't ask what was wrong with it, etc. My husband ordered the Bros. Champion Burger with tots. It's a burger with pulled pork on it. His burger was way overcooked. The pulled pork seemed to be okay. He loves tots and didn't eat them. He said they tasted like they'd been cooked in oil that had been used to cook a lot of other items as well. You may think that maybe they were understaffed. I don't believe so as I saw a number of staff members standing around chatting frequently. Our server was sitting down drying silverware. We were ready to pay and get the heck out of there. We had to get another server, to go get ours because she wasn't looking around, not checking on her tables, nothing - just chilling and drying flatware. There was absolutely nothing that made us want to go back.

Good food, excellent service, and a great place to enjoy dinner with family. We'll definitely be back.

5 stars for Sawmill BBQ Pub & Grill…read more We were originally trying to go to another barbecue restaurant but they ran out of brisket (WHAT!). Then I typed in some great barbecue restaurants on Yelp, and there appeared Sawmill BBQ Pub & Grill. It looks like just a regular bar with a music stage, but don't judge a book by its cover - the food is amazing. The portions are massive and the prices are reasonable, as are the drink prices. This is definitely more of a locals joint, but definitely worth stopping in for anyone if you want some St. Louis style BBQ. The brisket platter was the best - big portions, 2 sides and 2 pieces of garlic bread. The Jalepano Mac and cheese balls are awesome, so much flavor. The salmon platter was also very tasty and fresh. The live music is fun (but loud), and our waitress was nice. Overall, if you what BBQ and are in the area, this is definitely worth checking out.

The Good: The Brisket burnt ends were very good with good flavor. The service was very good and the food was delivered very quickly. But that's the extent of the good.... The Bad: The "Pork Steak Burger" was a major disappointment. It was served with nothing on the bun. No Onion...No Pickle...No lettuce...Nothing. Dry ground meat on a cheap hamburger bun. The burger did not have the flavor or moistness of a pork steak. It is pork run through a meat grinder with no seasoning added. VERY Bland...and at $7 was overpriced. I was amazed that there were NO Pork Steaks on the menu...! That is a fatal flaw that will prevent us from ever returning. The slaw was flavorless with too much vinegar and large chunks of cabbage that should have been ground or cut into smaller pieces. It was closer to a cabbage salad with vinegar dressing than traditional "slaw". My wife could not eat more than 1/4th of her serving due to the taste. The sides were substantially more expensive than the local BBQ competition. Standard sides like potato salad/beans/ slaw were all $3 for an average serving. Sides at competitive BBQ in the area are $1.89-$1.99 for better tasting food. A slab of ribs with (2) sides was $24. A slab with (3) sides at the competition is $2 cheaper. The only water they offer is bottled water for $1 a bottle. The BBQ sauce is served in bottles that have no labels. You have no idea what you are getting. They need to install a fly trap. We had pesky fly's competing with us for our meal throughout dinner. If you want excellent BBQ...Including Pork Steaks...Caledonia BBQ, Bailey Jo's in Ironton and Dexter BBQ are ALL better BBQ and more reasonably priced. When the new Sugar Fire BBQ opens in Farmington I will be surprised if Big Dick's in Farmington is still open a year from now.
