    Great little bbq/ burger dive. Right across the street from our Airbnb. We were walking around and decided to try it. The tritip is phenomenal. I got Onion rings as a side were delicious. The staff is very friendly and made sure our to go order had extra sauces and napkins. Highly recommend.

    This place is great. The food and service were both great. We got the pork loin sandwich with onion rings and loaded tots to share. The portions are good size and the pork loin was so tender and with a nice smoke to it. It was juicy and the roll it was on was soft with a nice crispy toast on the flat top. The onion rings were nice and crispy. They did offer ranch with them but the ranch was a bit bland. It needed a bit of zest to it. The loaded tots were were huge. They were amazing . The service was amazing. We ordered at the register and they brought it out to us and checked up on us. Very friendly and we enjoyed everything. Definitely going back.

    Tri-tip sandwich with tots

    A new venture in Morro Bay that lived up to its name. Located in Downtown Morro Bay this business has brought a tasty locale for fans of bbq. The seating area offers two-person or multi-seat tables. My buddy and I both ordered the tri-tip sandwich. A pillowy french roll that is grilled and the filled with a good amount of their tri-tip, and dressed with a little bbq sauce. Staff were very friendly, and service was prompt. The only drawback was that they are not yet offering beer or wine. I look forward to my next visit to try their other menu items.

    Fried Ravioli

    Was excited to try the new smoke house in Morro Bay as it has been awhile since we've had good BBQ in town. The spot is basically the same layout as the last place, very limited seating so no good for larger groups but just perfect four a couple of people to sit and watch Main St. Staff was nice and friendly and recommended the fried Ravioli. I'm glad they did, those were absolutely delicious. Ordered the smoked Tri Tip Sandwich and was disappointed. It was smaller than I had hoped, the bread seemed like the stuff you buy at the grocery store and the meat was overcooked and a bit dry. The bbq sauce was good, but not enough to save the sandwich. I definitely want to give them another try since I've heard lots of good things, but getting well done dry tri tip at a bbq place is not a good first impression. The meat had a nice light smokiness to it and seemed lightly seasoned, so it would be great to try when it is fresher.

    Loaded tots. Is huge

    Sat in Legends bar. Must say that this is a beautiful collaboration. Get awesome good and soda at savory smoke and eat and drink at the bar

    Trip tip sandwhich and tots

    Tri tip sandwhich is you gotta upgrade the side to tater tots. The sandwhich is thinly sliced but great portion.. And their ribs are great and generous amount also. New mandatory stop on morro bay. "This was not a paid promotion"

    The chicken nachos.

    I would eat these all the time if I lived in the area. The smoked chicken was unbelievably good. The chips are the best homemade chips I've ever had. I want these again just from worrying the review. Great food! Great service!

    I usually get the Tri Tip sandwich but today I tried the new Crispy Chicken Sandwich with Chips and man that was amazing! The coating on the chicken perfect and the chicken was so tender. Man it's gonna be a hard choice next time everything is so delightful ! Service was amazing ! Always a great friendly family atmosphere. The owners are great they always make us feel welcome. Will definitely be back next time in Morro Bay!

    The best onion rings I've ever had - and I've had a lot over the years. Pulled chicken sandwich was great. Staff is super friendly.

    Had such a great experience at House Of JuJu, in Morro Bay California. The food was super yummy and…read morethe service was great our food came out fast, which I always appreciate. I ordered the Calamity Jane burger, and wow, it was absolutely delicious and HUGE. You will honestly get full after eating just half of it. I also got a side of their potatoes with the spicy garlic sauce for dipping, and it was so good. Definitely a must-order! They also had a great selection of sangrias, which was a nice bonus. The only thing I'd mention is that it can be a little pricey if you're dining solo, so if you're going on a date, be ready for your pockets to take a little dent. Next time I come back, I definitely want to try the shrimp tacos because they sounded amazing. I was torn between those and the burger, but I went with my default order. Overall, delicious food, fast service, and a great spot in Morro Bay. I would definitely come back!

Had to park across the street in the surf shop parking lot for a handicapped space, luckily the traffic wasn't too bad crossing the Embarcadero. Waited quite a while to be seated. Loud concrete floor with metal chairs, could hear the conversation of all the other diners!! Distractions from people walking by on the Embarcadero, but great Rock view. Ordered cheeseburger with potatoes. Salad was "mixed greens" so I didn't order a salad. Next time I will get their wedge salad, but I didn't know if I could finish it with the burger and potatoes this time. Server said no fries or chicken strips becasue they don't have a fryer. Free refills for sodas, but only a little bit of ice. It was a bit syrupy and had a lack of carbonation, might have been Pepsi instead of Coke. Steak knife included with utensils, which came in handy because the burger was really slippery and I had to eat with a knife and fork!! Potatoes looked overcooked but that was because they are purple potatoes!! They tasted ok, luckily not too spicy like everything is these days. I liked the non-purple potato's texture better. Slow to refill my drink. I will come here again and have the wedge salad, from the pic it looks smaller than I expected this time around so it will be able to be eaten with a burger!!

The menu is extensive but I only had one thing in mind and thus I got the CLAM CHOWDER BOWL $6.99 and HALIBUT fish and chips $24.99 plus $2 garlic fries upgrade. Sorry to say this place is as many have said, a tourist trap. The halibut batter lacked seasoning it was practically tasteless. It's freshly fried however. Fries upgrade helped the fries only. The entire basket didn't taste much like anything and the tartar didn't help. The clam chowder was very salty. And I mean, very. It barely had clams in it and didn't taste rich and mostly had big cubes of potato. It was disappointing. The lines can get very long very fast. They have a good spot with greats views or Morro Rock. Parking is free everywhere to my knowledge.
