The restaurant was empty at 6pm on a Wednesday night. My food came out quick. We got the Texas BBQ ribs w/potato salad and garlic fries $28 + side of brisket $5.40 and baby back ribs w/cajun fries and house salad $30.50 + side of brisket $5.40. The Texas ribs were ok. Slightly burnt and smoky. It didn’t fall off the bone but still retained some moisture. The baby back ribs were a little bit better with the meat almost falling off the bone. The highlight for us were the garlic fries! So good. I should have gotten rid of the other sides and went with all garlic fries. As for the brisket, it was OK and needed BBQ sauce. We should have asked for more fattier pieces. Service is as expected for a self serve, pay at the cashier first restaurant.

Not terrible, but not great either and grossly overpriced for what you get and the quality. My wife had the big Texas plate, I believe it was $27 or $28. She got 3 pieces of ribs, not that great. Potato salad tasted like it came out of a container. The corn was tasty though although I feel it would have been better warm than cold. She got a side of sausage which was actually pretty tasty. I got the El jefe sandwich with tots. The tots were pretty good and the sandwich wasn’t terrible, but The meat was dry, tough and not that juicy. Overcooked. Also mine was about $18 and I had more food than my wife with her 2 sides. Not worth the prices and they haven’t mastered how to cook the meat. The picture included is her dish with one rib eaten and the sausage on her plate was an additional charge not included in the dish

Great spot for a larger meal in the area, especially if you’re missing your BBQ. Their brisket is juicy (although you can ask for a lean option), and paired with tater tots. They also have their own slightly spicy bbq sauce that goes well with everything.

BBQ ribs are nicely flavored but could be more tender. Fries are hot and fresh. Peanut slaw is also a pretty good change of pace from the normal creamy slaws. The staff is friendly. Plenty of parking as the restaurant is located in a strip mall next to the hobby lobby. Decent beer selections with Shiner Bock on tap.

Our family decided to eat somewhere in Bridgepoint as we wanted to shop at Target. This place has high reviews among others.

We were craving for BBQ after a long day out and found Armadillo Willy’s BBQ.

Really good overall, especially the white cheddar mac. Beware that “Texas Tots” are just tater tots though.

I got there around lunch time, wasn’t busy at all. Small portions for the price, in my opinion. Lots of side choices, which is nice. Let’s just talk about this corn bread muffin for a minute, it was very good. Comes with a cinnamon butter which I was hesitant to try but I’m glad I did. The butter is amazing with the cornbread. I highly recommend trying it Lots of seating options: high table, low ones, with chairs and booths. Window seating. It’s a self service establishment, the soda station is Pepsi with sobe, ice tea options. BBQ is kept hot to temperature as well, which was nice to see. Healthy menu options.

The Texas BBQ brisket it’s one of the most delicious foods I’ve ever had. I also had a delicious cornbread muffin and mini Caesar salad, hmmm… I drove all the way from Daly City to Foster City for the experience. I’m glad I did. I recommend it to everyone! They’ve got a lot more food than the things I’ve mentioned. Thanks for the delicious experience Armadillo Willy’s.

A nice alternative to a burger restaurant (although their burgers are pretty good).
