    Well. Had the BBQ Ribs and Brisket combo. Ribs were so so. Got the tip so I did not really get ribs. Got cartilage. Either they get cheap meat or are too cheap to trim the meat. The brisket did not seem like brisket but the taste was fabulous. Really really good! Cowboy beans were not spectacular. Corn bread was nice and moist but lacked flavor. The atmosphere...well not much of one. Parking is plenty but on dirt and rock. Potholes. If it was raining would be swimming in mud. Would I go back? I did enjoy the brisket but there must be other choices that I would try 1st.

    This is a fun, hole in the wall-ish BBQ place. I really liked the atmosphere and my boyfriend (who grew up in New Jersey) got a kick out of the decor. The service was pretty good. Unfortunately, when small places are busy, often the service suffers. But I didn't really notice any of that here. I think you have to ask for more cornbread after the initial basket when you get your drinks. As a Texan, you will be hard pressed to get an exceptional review for BBQ pretty much anywhere outside of the state... However, this place was pretty good. I like the sauce and the fried okra. I tried the BBQ sampler which includes brisket, pork, and chicken. I liked a chance to try the variety. I do wish they had provided a balanced amount of each meat (almost no brisket) and there was no divisor of the meats. They were all just plopped on the plate and unless you knew, you wouldn't know which was pork and which was chicken by look alone... My Jersey born and bred boyfriend really enjoyed his steak. I tasted it and it was well done. They cooked it medium rare the way he asked so it was very tender and the seasoning was nice. He had a side of mac & cheese and he liked it. I don't know if I would go back myself, but I would recommend the steak, brisket, sauce, and sides to non-Texans...

    Nice family style BBQ restaurant. Wide variety of menu items. What is really good is the fact that they have a lot of non BBQ offerings for those few people who don't like BBQ. Sigh. We'll be back!

    I cannot lie. Grumpy Jakes has THE BEST RIBS I have EVER had!!! The service was superb and the environment/decor was fun. I love that they serve drinks in mason jars. The salads were good too! They make their own barbecue sauce, which is SO edible! I also had the pleasure of meeting the owners - they were very friendly, down-to-earth people. I recommend this place to anyone! We've been there a few times and even hosted a community meeting in the loft area. If you're in town, you gotta try it out!!!

    Was in town and decided to drop by and try it out. The service is extremely nice! Very friendly and attentive people. The Piglet is a sampler served on a garbage can lid. It was nice, got a good selection of stuff. The Bacon Wrapped Jalepenos were to die for! The fries and onion rings were also very good. The ribs and brisket are both very flavorful, even without the sauce. I wasn't a big fan of the sauce, the ribs in particular are very tender and flavorful alone. The brisket was tender and flavorful as well. Fried Corn is corn that is lightly battered then fried in a pan I think? or deep fried, it was good except most of hte coating was not on the corn by the time it was served. Overall, it was worth eating at.

    Each year we spend a week in Show Low & have enjoyed BBQ here. This year we Googled their site to confirm they would be open. Their website said open until 9:00. We got there @ 6:30 & were told they closed at 6:00, even though their window sign said 7:00. Very confusing and disappointing.

    I'm not super impressed. It may be that I'm a Texas native, but the BBQ was on the low side of moderate for me and the portions were a lot smaller than I'm used to for a BBQ joint. The sides were adequate. Nothing was bad, just not what I would classify as good. We split an appetizer and a sampler plate and it was $30. Service was good.

    Service was very good, staff were friendly. The food was ok (ribs, brisket, pulled pork but the BBQ sauce was good. However, it was very difficult to eat and swat away flies at the same time. They need to get rid of their fly problem.....we had 3-4 of them swarming around our table the entire time. They were also around our waitress so I don't think this is something no one was aware of.

    This place has AMAZING BBQ. I have a new place in the White Mountains. You have to give a try. You won't be sorry.

    Food took over an hour to come out. When we got the food it was not worth the wait. Unless you have hours to kill and like microwaveable food this isn't the place for you.

    One of the best ribs we have had in a long time and great BBQ sauce. Lots of options for salads on the menu and Zucchini sticks were awesome. Service was very friendly and helpful. We were worried because on a Sunday at noon there were not too many cars out front like there were at Moose Henris, but so glad we chose them. Definitely a go back and will be ordering a bigger rib order next time!

    The servers were very friendly and fast responsive. Our food came out quickly at a fast pace. We ordered jake super bbq dish. The bbq sauce was good. The dish presentation wasn't really good that look like someone cramp everything on it quickly. The meat weren't very tender but some hardest to chew. It appears the meat been cook along time ago. They're very generous with their sodas with free refill. The bathroom is clean and neat. I had a very bad stomachache after I ate there. Either the meat wasn't cook right, proper handing or hand cleanses. Hmm. The floor was dirty that needs to sweep. The table were clean enough to sit down. Overall rating is the friendly service. Caution on the meat though.

    Ate there once earlier this summer and it ok. Went back at a house guest's request and the experience could not have been worse. Three of four ordered ribs- a quarter, a half and a full rack. None tried more than a rib. All servings were a thin veneer of meat over layers of fat, gristle, and connective tissue. When the waitress took our plates away no inquiry was made as to why most of the food remained. The fries tasted like they were the last of a basket that had been sitting too long. Won't go back- beware!

    We were on vacation in Show Low and drove by this little restaurant and I'm so glad we stopped! They have the best BBQ food I have ever tasted! The service was amazing and it was very kid friendly! Can't wait to come back!
