Thrillist Top BBQ List: "What you're getting: El Toro sandwich & 1/2 rack of baby back ribs " El Toro tri-tip 'wich was finalist 4 "Best Sandwich in US" (purists might want to just stick to baby backs )

Kevin Sheehan

Everything is good here just get here early or else u are waiting in line . Great place to bring the kids bc it's loud and big booths for everyone to cram into.

Ivan Williams

The Baby Back Ribs and Tri-tip were to die for. Man, oh, man the food at this place is killer. Especially with the super yummy side of BBQ Baked Beans . And do not forget Frank's Hot Sauce . Yummy.

Who doesn't love BBQ ?! Phil's is a great choice for nearly anything smokey and delicious. The Half Rib Dinner or El Toro are great options!

Don't be afraid of the line if it is out the door. Once ordered, your food comes up really fast. And it is worth the wait. Can also call ahead for take out

Jen R

Omg everything! I like the coleslaw , onion rings , their homemade ranch , BBQ SAUCE is so good you even can buy some on your way out!

Nicholas Webb

Great waiters if it's your first time definitely get the ribs with coleslaw (my personal favorite). There award winning and taste great.

Mark B

Good chicken and ribs . BBQ sauce has a great flavor. Not sure how you can be a BBQ joint and not have brisket . Wouldn’t last in Texas without having it. Otherwise, decent BBQ .

Suzie

Baby back ribs , Cole slaw and baked beans are excellent!

LaDonna Sullivan

Excellent service and food! Come hungry. There was a line out the door, but they move you through fast.

While waiting for your take away order, have a libation at the bar - Christin, the bartendress is the bomb! :) Cool vibe!

Broham and onion rings but anything on this menu is great.
