This restaurant is in an Antique Mall that I've been visiting for years. This is the first time…read moreI've eaten at the restaurant and it was FANTASTIC!!! I ordered the half size Tri tip salad with the dressing on the side. The half size was large enough for me and I'm glad the dressing was on the slide as I only used half of the dressing. My sister-in-law ordered the Mac n cheese and said it was outstanding. My hubby ordered the pastrami sandwich which was fantastic! The pastrami is brined in house for 7 days. The Coleslaw was very good. It had just the right amount of dressing and was very fresh! I will definitely order this on our next trip. We finished off lunch with a peanut butter cookie which was firm with the right amount of softness. The peanut butter was not overpowering. Highly recommend!!!

You order at the counter and they'll bring your food out to you. There is a bakery case with yummy-looking cookies and brownies, and a cooler with bottled sodas, although there is a drink fountain. The staff here some to please. I asked about the new chicken though sandwich, and they explained how it was marinated and smoked, and said if I didn't like it to come back up and they'll give me the brisket sandwich, c which was what I originally ordered. We ordered the pulled pork sandwich and the chicken thigh sandwich. Both came served with a delicious slaw and a pickle. They were both yummy, with a great smokey flavor. We also ordered a brownie, which was humongous!

When the mood for BBQ struck, I ordered via Uber Eats as I have heard they have good barbecue. With…read moremy health, I can't always eat meat but lately I've been able to tolerate. Bring on the BBQ and try a new to me location! What I ordered: - Baby Back Ribs: very delicious and tender - some of my favorite ribs recently - Green Chili Mac n Cheese: fairly average Mac n Cheese, and something I'd order again as it complimented the ribs - Cowboy Beans (Pinto): not a fan, and I should know better as team baked beans (skip next time) - Green Chili Corn Bread: pretty moist and a good flavor - green chili is a tasty addition - Old-Fashioned Bread Pudding : SKIP THIS ITEM - mushy and ended up putting in the bin I didn't eat all, and had as leftovers the next day. The ribs were surprisingly just as delightful as the first day! This order has intrigued me to take a trip to the establishment to see the ambiance of dining in, and the service the staff provides. Though, Uber Eats did make it convenient and they were exceptionally friendly dropping off. If you are in the mood for BBQ, I recommend Waldo's.

I am updating my review to 1 star for Waldos, because the main dish was inedible. That brisket was terrible. The brisket replacing my bad brisket was not good. Tough, dry, chewy.

Maybe next time!

They had fans with water misters running, which was a nice touch and made the patio much more comfortable in the Arizona heat. Our waitress was super friendly, attentive, and did a great job throughout the meal. Our beers took a little longer than expected because the keg had run out, but she kept us updated and made up for the delay with her great service. One of the highlights was the family combo pricing. We ordered the 4-meat combo for $29 so we could sample a little bit of everything. The turkey was easily the star of the meal!! juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The pulled pork was finger-licking good and reminded me of Mexican carnitas so much that I almost asked for a tortilla! The brisket was a little dry but still decent. The jalapeño sausage, however, tasted a bit old and wasn't my favorite. For sides, we tried the poblano pepper coleslaw and mac and cheese. Both were okay but could have used a bit more flavor. The cornbread also seemed a little dry and tasted like it had been sitting out for a while. We also ordered the Scorpion Smoked Wings. Despite the name, they weren't spicy at all, at least not for my taste buds. The atmosphere was relaxed with country music playing, creating a laidback BBQ vibe. The cold beer, friendly service, and affordable prices definitely added to the experience. Overall, I'd give it 3.5 out of 5 stars. The service, pricing, and a couple of standout meats make it worth a visit, but there are other BBQ spots around the Valley that I personally prefer. That said, I'd still come back for the turkey, pulled pork, and a cold beer on the patio.

Oh my goodness! I was lucky that they visited the business complex a few hundred yards away from…read moremy office today. I originally brought my lunch from home but when I heard they were visiting, my home lunch was quickly saved for another day. I originally intended to order their Bronx bomber sandwich but was sold out by the time I visited around 11:40am. Mind you, they opened at 11am. I was really bummed out but luckily had the back-up option of the Brooklyn burger. I ordered the Junior size and it is a quarter pound beef patty while the regular is half pound (two patties). The Junior is still plentiful and all meals comes with fries. This order left me incredibly satisfied and full. This was one of the best ~$10 I spent on lunch in awhile. I hope they do come back so I can try out their Bronx sandwich!

The woman who owns this food truck is rude af. I waited in my line my entire 30 minute lunch period…read moreto order a side of fries because EVERYTHING on this menu has meat and/or cheese and I wasn't in the mood for either. When I asked for an order of fries this is what the owner lady told me "I'm sorry, I can't give you an order of fries because I need them for my Parmesan fries" to which I replied "But you have a side of fries on the menu" she ignored me and took the next customers order. Needless to say, I didn't eat lunch that day. Don't waste your time standing in line to order something you're not sure you can get. Ask first. Even if you have to interrupt her speaking to someone else because she obviously doesn't care. Zero customer service. Never tried the food. Never will.

I chose chili and cheese dogs, a bag of Doritos, and a large Strawberry Leomonade. The food was served very quickly, which was awesome! OMG...this was absolutely delicious and totally satisfied my craving. The Leomonade was fresh with real strawberries. It was incredibly refreshing on a super hot evening. Thankfully there was an awning set up with some chairs, this offered some needed shade in the excessive heat. I was able to enjoy my meal right there outside. I had such a good experience that I brought my son by when he got off work, and recommended Big Jake's to a neighbor that said hi to me while I was waiting on my boy!
