Went to Willamette Valley Smokehouse on a whim with my husband because he was wanting to try the…read morefood, and I'm glad we did! The first thing I noticed was the ambiance and the music. It was the perfect spot for a casual evening out. We had a couple of drinks, a cider and a Japanese lager, and really enjoyed the atmosphere. The musician playing that night was fantastic! He had a great song selection, and his voice was hauntingly beautiful. I'm not a huge barbecue person because I prefer my meals to have a little more variety than just meat, but I did enjoy the brisket and the pork belly. The sides were just okay for me. I'm from the South, where we take our potato salad seriously, so I wasn't the biggest fan of theirs but I did really enjoy the beans and the corn salad. I'll definitely be back for the music, a drink, and the laid-back atmosphere. It's a great place for a casual evening out!

Ordered the pulled pork sandwich which had a 60/40 meat to fat ratio and bun was quite soggy. Corn was not a Mexican street corn but good. Beans were actually the best. If I come back I'd order the brisket and see how that is. Service consists of ordering and paying up front, getting a pager and choose where to sit.

Only down side is a little too sweet for my taste The smoked pork wonton is also a great idea and finished with a finess. Very crispy and thin skin with a good amount of pork.

Was out putting test mileage on a new motor installed in my friend's Wildfire Engine looping from…read moreSalem up Hwy 22 to Hwy 20 and back up I-5. Got hungry and was looking for something that sounded good. It was mid afternoon when we arrived and we timed it pretty well. There was a steady in and out of customers that kept the server busy. What a gem of a place. I could only wish we had such perfection in Salem! The restaurant itself was fairly typical for a small town being an older established building. There was a nice large parking lot that easily accommodated the truck. We got lucky and came on a BBQ Day! I've had BBQ from many different places and the majority has been tough, stringy or dry. Not the case here. So far from it! As a starter we had hush puppies. I've never had them before and wanted to try them. They were tasty little cornbread balls. Nothing to compare to but they were good. Not dry. Our server kindly greeted us and mentioned they were out of GF buns and Texas Twinkies followed up with the specials. Good intel to make informed decisions! Service was not speedy. We both got the loaded baked potatoes. One was with brisket and the other had "hot to trot" which is a mix of brisket, smoked sausage and jalapenos. Potatoes are baked perfectly and piled with butter, sour cream and meaty goodness. I brought half of mine home. We also ordered a side of Mac & cheese with smoked sausage. Creamy cheesy and tasty chunks of tender juicy sausage. Remember when I said their meat was not stringy, tough, and dry like any of the other places? It really wasn't! It was super tender and juicy and each bite just fell apart it was so delicious! We were so lucky. They ran out of potatoes while we were there and I was lucky enough to get a pound of brisket to take home and of course I had to have some when I got home. It was so succulent and flavorful. I can't wait to have it. Those who are leaving poor reviews because you can't get in or order what you want because they are sold out, shame on you! I'm sorry for your pettiness because I could only wish we had such a fantastic restaurant! Oh and a word of advice. If you really want to try their BBQ, I was told to call ahead and reserve it to make sure they don't run out. I wish I had taken a photo Maybe next time.

Cons: -Service was slow. -We were not given refills when we finished our drinks. -We were not asked if our meal was good or if we needed anything else. -Regular fries were undercooked and inedible. -'Inferno burger' was not spicy/hot whatsoever even with its jalapeños. It should just be called the Bacon Jalapeño burger. -no toilet paper accessible in bathroom. Overall summary of our experience: Disappointed with half of our meal and service.
