Came with friends and family on a weekend. Wasn’t too busy. Staff was amicable and service was quick. Nothing too special about this good but overall consistent with great taste and vast menu selection. Meat was tender and fries were cooked in good, clean oil.

The food and service is good, but $25 for a burger meal is pretty steep for me. I’ll continue to go occasionally, perhaps on special occasions, and will look of coupons or other discounts. If you are not price conscious and enjoy burgers and BBQ, I think you will like Willy’s.

Pretty decent BBQ. The baby back ribs were good and juicy, but the chicken was a little dry. The hostess was very warm and welcoming. Overall, it was a good experience and would go back.

Sadly, I had to change my review from 5 stars to a single. This place has gone downhill and fast. I eat here several times a week, that is I used to eat here all the time.

I used to come here all the time with my mom as a youngster I loved it so much but now it’s different the food is still good well, not as good as it used to taste before but still good. To be honest the thing I notice the most in the VERY small portion sizes, it doesn’t match up with the prices at all it’s ridiculous ! They gave us our food last time and it felt like we were eating from the kids menu but paying more than I’ve ever paid there which doesn’t make sense to me. It makes me sad because I’d love to come by more often like I used to but it’s just too pricey for what you get.

Unreal how poor the quality of food is here. Tonight marks possibly the most disgusting bbq I have ever attempted to eat.

Genuinely shocked at how mediocre BBQ can be. Dry, underspiced pork, served with (not cooked in) barbeque sauce. On the side. In a little tiny cup. No coleslaw or even pickles on the pulled pork sandwich. Three ribs for 20 bucks? Not to mention screwing up the order and serving cornbread with rock hard, frozen butter. Unreal.

Very dry and under seasoned pork on my pulled pork sandwich. Did not come with coleslaw sadly and only a small cup of bbq sauce. Certainly not fork tender and hand shredded. More like overcooked and torn apart/cubed. Ordered with a side of potato salad, received a mediocre cornbread muffin with rock hard apple butter and no utensil to spread it. Massively overpriced for that experience. The only decent thing was the brioche bun which it the only thing they didn’t make.

Been a few years, not since before COVID. Gone downhill. Ribs almost as dry as bone, not even sauce could save them. Stingy portions, bread is now a paid side dish. Won’t be back.
