Best kept secret....this awesome Eats is worth finding on G Street. in this little red cottage. We loved the St. Louis style ribs, turkey and ham with sides of Texas spiced beans, Cowboy coleslaw and real mashed potatoes with dreamy, creamy gravy. It's easy to stay healthy with the salad bar filled with (high end) mixed greens and fixings. We... more

Unlike many places on the island, this restaurant is not a bit overpriced. This little BBQ joint has a varied menu with one of the freshest and yummiest salad bars around. Yes, at a smokehouse! My pulled pork sandwich was moist and flavorful, and my husband loved his sloppy chop! Little Joe's has fresh cut fries which my kids fought... more

This was our first introduction to Texas Barbeque and we were very impressed. In addition to the large barbeque offerings, they have a large salad bar with a variety of soups. The brisket, smoked turkey and ribs were amazing. Loved their table sauce. The beer is kept in several large nostalgic ice coolers so you can reach in and grab... more

We enjoy Little Joe's and have eaten here several times. The BBQ is not stupendous, but it is good quality, very tasty, and plenty of it. Good coleslaw and sides too. On our recent visit, we enjoyed brisket, sausage, and ribs. All were good. The restaurant was clean and the service was good too. Good place for a casual meal... more

Certainly nothing fabulous about this place but the BBQ is decent. Makes for a quick meal to take to the beach as long as you have plenty of napkins. Definitely not Texas BBQ as we Texans know BBQ but it's edible. more

I am a food critic and a BBQ-lover, so based off of other reviews decided to venture out and try some TX BBQ here (I usually stick to seafood anytime I'm somplace where I can see the ocean). Disappointed. Sloppy chop sandwich was good. But the french fries were cold, brisket was not tender and was cold. Fried okra and... more

Eating here turned out to be the best part of our vacation last spring. The portions were generous, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was just right. Also, not too expensive. We'll definitely eat here again. more
