Willie Jewell's Old School -b-q Big Bend

We love this place!! Food is better than other BBQ places we've eaten at and you get so much more for the money!! And the sauces are kept hot so they don't cool the meat when you use them!!

Very bad first impression, order was missing an item on the ticket after it was confirmed 3 times at the speaker. The food was average at best. Not dry but lacked flavor. The cornbread was excellent however. I don't think I will be coming back.

Terrible terrible service on April 19 434p check #44. A few items that need attention, please acknowledge that your staff speak up to the diners instead of mumbling. I don't think I need to say pardon 4x because your staff doesn't speak up. I ordered a 1921 burger no cheese, after my guests received their meals mine arrived at 457pm with cheese and no lettuce, tomato or condiments, with a overly toasted bun. I immediately said this isn't what I ordered, followed by some mumbling and the employee starting to walk away, I quicky stopped her and requested a refund. I did get a refund but no apology, no offers of any grand gesture. Not a way to spend my birthday. Management will get a call, as they deserves that respect. I frequently visit here, but now I don't feel your organization deserves my time. The cashier who gave me the refund, again stop the mumbling speak up, speak clearly.

I have been passing this places for the past few months contemplating on trying it. I finally tried it today, and was big NO for me. The meat is seasoned very minimum, the only way I was able to eat the ribs by dipping it in the sweet and sassy sauce. In sides was a Big No as well, I had the fries, baked beans and cornbread no seasoning and very dry. I’m so sad because I really thought I was going to be able to find a good bbq spot in Riverview.

Excellent size of a restaurant especially a BBQ style place. Decent amount of food for the price. Normally a place that has sweet potato fries they are limited but at willie jewells gave more than I expected!
