This is a solid lunch stop. It was just one person working when we came in so he was multi-tasking…read morelike crazy. We put our order in at the counter and had our sandwiches about 7 minutes later. Pretty quick for all the work he had to do. I had the Santa Maria. It was a nice tri-tip with garlic butter. The variety of sauces at the table helped add a personalized flavor. The bun was soft and fresh, and this sandwich was bigger than I was expecting. I got a side of Mac and cheese, it was creamy goodness! Good service, good food!

I've tried dozens of bbq joints around the country and this one stands out for the great flavors. I…read moreordered the two meats/two sides dinner, choosing brisket and pulled pork with potato salad and coleslaw. The meats were great, the coleslaw was fantastic, but the potato salad was uninspiring. Brisket had a great bark on it but was very moist inside with an excellent smoky flavor. The pulled pork was amazing as well but could have had a little more care getting the chunks of fat out. They had plenty of sauces available--they bring you a basket with four different flavors in extra large bottles. Apply liberally! I loved the horseradish in their coleslaw. I've never seen that done before but it's my new favorite. I'll definitely be trying to replicate that at home. My biggest disappointment was the potato salad. It seemed like it was just scooped from a Reser's tub. Maybe not, I don't know if they make it in house, but that's what it reminded me of. I'm giving four stars instead of five because despite being the only person in the restaurant, it wasn't very clean. I had to wipe down my table and there was a big chunk of brisket lying on the floor. I was also pretty unimpressed with the constant foul language coming from the kitchen staff. I realize I'm in the minority on this but I still believe in keeping the atmosphere of a public place professional and family appropriate. So, all in all, top-notch food with one star off for cleanliness and atmosphere. I would definitely pick up here again but might not eat in, depending on the situation. If you enjoy bbq, give it a try!

I feel like most BBQ places do one or two things well, while one or two things are just okay. That…read morewas NOT my takeaway from Bottos. After reading the great reviews, I'd wanted to get over there, and I'm glad I finally did. The ribs were perfect, the pulled pork was as good as I've ever had. When the brisket is solid but the least exciting bite, you've got a great platter. The mac and cheese side is excellent. I loved the slaw, though I'd skip it next time due to more onion than I'm cool with. Sauces are okay, but would love a spicy option. Honestly, none of the meat begged for extra sauce, I just love sauce. Seating was limited and the place is pretty small, so probably hit and miss during peak hours. Loved the food. Will return.

Absolutely incredible BBQ--must try!…read more OK, so first off, the service was amazing. You order at the counter, grab a seat, and they'll bring the food right to you. Heads up--this isn't a fancy or romantic date-night type of place, but trust me, the food more than makes up for it. We ordered the pastrami brisket, jalapeño cheese sausage, and spicy sausage--all delicious. The spicy macaroni and cheese? Oh baby. Probably the best spicy mac & cheese I've ever had. We also had the stew (delicious), and even the baked beans -- which I normally don't like -- were delicious. And of course, the ribs were tender, smoky, and delicious too. The whole place smells like real deal slow-smoked barbecue, and every bite proved it. A delightfully delicious spot from start to finish. We'll definitely be back!
