good place for family lunch/dinner. Kerri did fantastic job taking care of us. appetizers A+. sandwiches A. I wish menu could have offered family packages with a bit of everything. other than that, everything good. Totally recommended
We could smell the smoky flavor from outside and just knew we had to come here. Double checked the reviews and everyone is claiming this place is the best, and the are right. The vibes in here a cool, just your average barbecue place. The real kicker is the food! We got the ribs and the brisket and the waitress said it will be out quick. She wasn’t lying, less than 5 minutes later they came out with everything. The meat was absolutely amazing and even the sides were 10/10. They give you a range of about 5 sauces to try and all of them are great. Highly, highly recommend this place if you like anything barbecue. We will definitely be back to this delicious spot in St. Augustine.
I was visiting St. Augustine for the Night of Lights this evening, and passed by Mojo barbecue on the trolley ride. I decided to stop in for dinner after the tour, and I’m glad I did! Dave and the hostess had wonderful recommendations, were attentive and patient when answering my questions. The hostess and Dave were so helpful assisting me on what sides to add to my entrees! I ordered two meats (chicken and smoked turkey) with sweet potatoes and side salad along with pulled chicken with corn. Everything was flavorful and well prepared!! I’d recommend dinning here, staff and food are wonderful!!! Thank you for making my dinner in St. Augustine one to remember!
We came into St Augustine on Tuesday, an hour before they closed, and they assured us everything was fine. Having worked in the service/retail industry before, I completely understand what it's like, and they were completely cool about it, so it made us comfortable to sit in and order. We were the only customers in the restaurant at the time. We ordered a Captain and Coke, an Odd Couple, and an Old Fashioned cocktail, and they were perfectly made, and got us feeling good. For dinner we ordered a two meat combo and shared it. It was big enough to fill both of us. Being that we were out of town, we didn't want leftovers, but if we did order our own meals, it would've definitely been enough to have leftovers for both of us. The brisket was heavenly, and the pulled pork tasted good, even when I didn't douse it in the various BBQ sauces they had. Excellent BBQ spot right in the historic area of St. Augustine. Bonus points for it also being haunted. We didn't have any experiences when we were here, but I believe they said it was a cat, because it knocks glasses over or something!
We went here by a suggestion. Well worth it. Burnt Ends were absolutely out of this world. The mashed sweet potatoes were excellent. The Mac and cheese were superb and the collards were delicious. What a wonderful place. Staff were polite and the atmosphere was great. Outdoor seating. Plenty of indoor seating. Nice bar with a lot to choose from. I would suggest going and we will for sure to go back.
Down home and friendly atmosphere. Kate , our server, was amazing, helpful and knowledgeable. We had a lot of appetizers and the vege plate. We had to take over half home due to the generous portions. I fully recommend coming in for a grear lunch or dinner..or apps and drinks.
Nice place just walking distance from where I was staying. Great food. Wasn’t really impressed with the Cole slaw but the fried catfish was excellent! The rest of my family enjoyed their food as well. Dave, our server was great!
