I was craving protein after a workout session and this hit the spot. Highly recommend checking this place out if you have not, I really like that the meat is not cooked in sauce but that you have the option to put your own sauce on it afterwards. A lot of people tell me that they don't like barbecue because they don't like barbecue sauce so I always tell them to check out mission. The service is really good, always. It's also very clean.

Today I had a very disappointing experience at Kojak Restaurant while picking up an order for a…read morecustomer. This review is not about the food--it is about the treatment I received from a staff member. From the moment I entered the restaurant, the waitress appeared to have an attitude toward me. As an immigrant with a Jamaican accent, I sometimes have to repeat myself, but customer service employees should remain patient and professional when dealing with people from different backgrounds and cultures. During the interaction, I felt disrespected and insulted. The situation escalated to the point where the police were called. The responding officers were respectful, professional, and understanding. I admit that I became upset and responded with inappropriate language after feeling provoked. The restaurant business is about serving the public, and the public consists of people from many different races, cultures, and nationalities. Every customer and delivery driver deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. I believe Kojak Restaurant should invest more in customer service training and emphasize professionalism, respect, and cultural awareness for all employees. No one should feel unwelcome or disrespected when entering a business. I hope management takes concerns like this seriously and works to create a more welcoming environment for everyone.

The restaurant has a clean look with pictures of the food on the wall. All of the food is cooked fresh daily. I was impressed by the menu options and definitely want to try everything on the menu. I ordered the brisket which was delicious. The meat had a nice flavor and was tender. They have 3 barbecue sauce options: Sweet Chili, Jerk Barbecue and Carolina Gold. I loved the Carolina Gold on my brisket. The green beans were also fresh with a good flavor and the truffle Mac and cheese was delicious. The prices were fair. I definitely will be back to try some other items and recommend this restaurant.

Seemed to be pretty standard American fare. Excellent customer service, delicious burgers and fries (great crunch!). There's a bench or two outside with paper towels and condiments. Drink selection was small. My family of four came and ate on a Sunday evening for $50, Sunday special being 2 Burgers & fries for $20. We also ordered the poutine and buffalo wings (hot!).

We have been dying to try this place since we moved here. Today we tried and will most likely not…read morereturn. Pros: Staff was very friendly, although the counter style service is meh. The sausage was amazing. Unsweetened tea was good, as well as potato salad and beans. Cons: the ribs were very large, tender and had a great smoke flavor but that's it. They were pretty fatty, although still had a decent amount of meat. But there was no real flavor to the meat other than the "smoke". The brisket was tender also but flavorless. I tried both sauces. Both taste very ketchup based with the Hot just being super spicy. I mixed the sausage and brisket together to eat so it would help the brisket. The location is great and in walking distance in Ybor, from the trolly or locals. Little house like place with two tvs on. One playing sports while the other was playing some Jerry Springer style lame drama, and was plenty loud for us to hear. Overall, very disappointed. The Smoker was going and gave us high hopes but lack of flavor made for a very dull meal.

It's in a small house just off the street.... Keep looking, it's there! Trust me you won't be sorry!!! The sausage is unbelievable. Trust me. I can't say enough.

I recently visited Johnson's Barbeque and the experience was absolutely fantastic. The restaurant is warm and inviting, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Alexis T provided excellent service, and the food, specifically the ribs, brisket, and tacos, was phenomenal. Service Excellence The service provided by Alexis T was absolutely exceptional. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a friendly smile and a warm welcome. Throughout the meal, she was attentive and professional, yet never intrusive. She was knowledgeable about the menu and able to make great recommendations. She was also very accommodating, making sure that my needs were met and that my table was always cleared and clean. Her positive attitude and genuine care for the customers' experience really made the entire dinner special. Food Quality The food at Johnson's Barbeque was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. The ribs were tender and juicy, with a perfect balance of smoky flavors and savory spices. The brisket was mouth-watering, with a rich, complex flavor that lingered on my palate long after the meal. It was the kind of brisket that you only find at a true, traditional barbecue joint. The tacos were the star of the show, with soft corn tortillas filled with tender pulled pork, tangy slaw, and a creamy chipotle aioli that tied the flavors together perfectly. They were the perfect combination of textures and tastes. Overall, the food was simply amazing. Overall Experience The entire dining experience at Johnson's Barbeque was truly exceptional. The service was first-rate, and the food was absolutely delicious. I was particularly impressed by the ribs, brisket, and tacos, which were the best I've had in a long time.

As a native Florida boy this was truly appreciated :-) The brisket was def above average for FL BBQ. The ribs were good, the smoke wings were very good. The sides were enjoyable too.

The Brisket Shoppe was on today's agenda after I saw they were serving Wagyu Dino Beef Ribs and…read moreBeef Cheeks as their specials. That was all the excuse I needed to make the drive. I've only had beef cheeks one other time, at LeRoy and Lewis in Austin, but I have to give Danny's the edge. They were unbelievably tender, literally melt in your mouth, with incredible flavor. The Wagyu Dino Rib was every bit as impressive. It was absolutely massive with a beautiful bark, the perfect amount of smoke, and so tender it practically fell apart. Of course I couldn't leave without some brisket, and it was just as outstanding as always. I had the chance to chat with Danny, and he and his team are some of the nicest people you'll meet. Their passion for great barbecue is obvious in everything they do. The Brisket Shoppe consistently serves some of the best BBQ I've had anywhere and, in my opinion, it's the best you'll find outside of Texas. Quality meat, cooked low and slow with skill, pride, and passion. It doesn't get much better than that. If you haven't been yet, do yourself a favor and stop by. Pro tip: Order online ahead of time. You'll skip the line, make sure you get exactly what you're after, and avoid the disappointment of them selling out. Trust me... they will sell out.

The turkey is probably the best I've had. Maybe ever. Juicy, seasoned, could have been a giant chicken lol. The brisket was good as well. I went for half moist half lean. It turned out moist and more moist. Next time I'll go lean since its a particularly juicy brisket. The cole slaw was a fresh and crunchy touch of brightness on my heavy plate. The tallow fries had potential but I wish they were crunchier. The bon bons were good (first time having them) but after I ate everything else it was bit rich. I left with the itis but tbh it wasnt too bad which speaks to the quality of the ingredients! Worth a visit.
