What Carole Larson dislikes about Jethro's Bbq:
The atmosphere is reminiscent of a sports bar. The food I've tried has always been satisfactory, but nothing standout, and it tends to be inconsistent. Sometimes the dishes arrive hot, while other times the fried items are served lukewarm, which is quite off-putting. The boneless wings aren't the usual nugget shape; instead, they come as long, thin strips that resemble fried calamari. The onion rings are decent, fitt... View all feedback.

I enjoyed the salmon served with mashed sweet potatoes, jalapeño creamed corn, and Texas toast. Everything was fantastic! The salmon was flaky and juicy, topped with a delicious BBQ glaze. The jalapeño creamed corn was flavorful without being spicy, and it was a unique dish that I'll definitely try again. I love sweet potatoes, and these did not let me down! To complement my meal, I had a bloody Mary that came with a side salad.

I walked in with decent expectations after checking out the menu, but I was pleasantly surprised. The pork chops were particularly impressive, and I have to give credit to the stuffing and brisket as well. I would definitely come back to explore more of the menu, and the service was exceptionally friendly and accommodating!

We visited Jethro's BBQ on the 24th. I had a BBQ ham sandwich, and my friend chose a burger. The food was delicious, and the portions were generous for the price. Our waitress Stacy was outstanding—attentive, quick to refill our drinks, and very friendly. She was likely one of the best servers we've ever encountered. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

I ordered the salmon with mashed sweet potatoes, jalapeño creamed corn, and Texas toast. Everything was absolutely fantastic! The flaky, juicy salmon was coated with a BBQ rub glaze that was superb. The jalapeño creamed corn wasn’t spicy but had a wonderful jalapeño flavor—I had never tried anything like it before, but I definitely will again! I love sweet potatoes, and these did not disappoint. To complement my meal, I had a Bloody Mary topped with a skewer holding two large green olives, a long dill pickle spear, and a celery stalk. I was very pleased with my dining experience and look forward to enjoying it again!
