Amazing smoked tri tip sandwich and cobb salad, especially for the price. Totally didn't expect the great food given the location. Tri tip had good smoke rings & grill marks and the sandwich had just enough BBQ sauce not to overwhelm the smokey tri tip....Read More

Tried the burnt end burrito. Good tri tip. Meat was nicely cooked. There was a lot of meat in the burrito. I loved the hot BBQ sauce that was on the side! 👍 Very filling and I would come back again!

Tasty BBQ in a pleasant oasis. I recommend trying the tri-tip sandwich with a side of barbecue sauce! Wild Jack’s is great. I’ve heard people might turn up their noses at it because it isn’t the single greatest barbecue in the world- but it is...Read More

It’s all about the salads. The salads are fresh, huge, and delicious. It’s a great relief from traditional roadside fast food. I got the spinach and strawberry salad with tri tip added. Filling and very good.

Inside Bravoland, the greatest place on earth. This place puts out huge portions of awesomeness, including huge insanely good and fresh salads if you're trying to be healthy on a long drive. Pictured are the strawberry salad, nachos with brisket, and garlic fries.

One of the best burritos I have had in a long time. Absolutely delicious. The burnt ends burrito is one of the rarest kinds around. One of a kind.

Perfect stop for bbq lovers with kiddos. Good tasty food, good portions and a playground area on the outside. Next to an ice cream shop, a small market with wine tasting and draft beer and some shooting games, all around pretty good

The best BBQ I've ever had was at this small, family-owned restaurant. The brisket was cooked to perfection - juicy and tender with a crispy bark. The ribs were also outstanding - smoky and flavorful with just the right amount of pull from the bone....Read More
