I have been ordering JC’s BBQ (located on Saratoga Ave in San Jose) for decades! I would always get their family bucket meals. They have a menu selection that includes hot-links, chicken, pork, and beef ribs slathered with their famous BBQ sauce. Oh man you just have to try their BBQ sauce. Absolutely delicious! Family bucket meals include pork ribs, half a chicken, a pint of their delicious BBQ beans, a pint of potato salad, green salad and garlic bread. Be prepared to get your hands dirty because their stuff is just super yummy. Hands down 10/10

My favorite place for BBQ. I love their beef ribs, their salad and dressing, the potatoes salad, the bread, the BBQ sauce, their BBQ chicken. I haven't had their pork ribs because I love their beef ribs so much. I like the owners are so friendly. We've been enjoying their food for over 10 years. They never disappoint. Absolutely love everything about this place. It is small, clean, no restrooms, big tv, and lots of choices for drinks. Definitely worth every penny.

LOOVEEE THIS PLACE!! I’ve been coming here with my mom since I was a young teenager I moved out of the area since then but I always make a special trip to grab a plate whenever I can. Great tart tasting potato salad. They give you great size portions. Also, I always have to ask for extra bbq sauce on the side because it’s that good!! You get garlic bread with a lot of menu ideas you can order from which I’ve always been a fan of.

JC's has been my go-to BBQ spot for over 25 years. I LOVE LOVE LOVE their beef ribs! The meat is always falling off the bone. And they're big! The hot links are addictive, the chicken is perfect and when I used to work close by, on my lunch break I would frequently get their pulled pork. I'm obsessed with the garden salad & dressing!! Always so consistently fresh and crisp! Would recommend 10 out of 10!

Been coming here for over two decades. Fell in love with food. Atmosphere is a small and nestled in area that has alot small local businesses that are amazing. Since only one person runs orders, cooks, and serves. He is a damn hard ass worker. I give him that. He puts on boxing on Saturday and always has games on too! Amazing service great food

Husband ordered and I didn't try but he really like them! Sauce makes the dish for sure! Sides aren't bad, a ton of meat on the ribs, great portions to cost ratio!

There was one person who took our order, served the food, and was the cashier. The food was good. Even the salad that looked super simple was great. The beans were perfection! Overall good food. I also liked that it wasn't to much food or to little. Awesome little hole in the wall place.

I have been eating there now through 3 owners...beginning with Lucia who created the sauce and total menu followed by JC and now the new owner since the late 70's. There have been some minor changes but the ribs and sauce have remained unchanged. Delicious!!!

I keep driving by this place and was curious. It opens at 11. It's a smaller place and their menu is fairly limited. They mainly serve rib meat and they grill it right by the register. I got the 2 beef and 3 pork beef combo dinner thinking I would get brisket. It was 2 beef rib. So total I got 5 ribs for dinner. It included green salad, garlic bread, and a choice of beans and potato salad. I opted in for potato salad. The potato salad was great. The rib are okay. It was lathered by bbq sauce and theyre not as tender as if they put it in a smoker.

It is old style barbecue. I do not hate it but not the best one. Price value was good. Especially like lunch special is about 10$. But Meat was too tough to chew and no air conditioning in this hot weather!!!!!!!

Dan Kim

Tried this place on a whim and it's not bad but not that good either. Its mid as they come, would not be my first choice to go to but it's alright. Value wise, it's ok. A bit cheaper then most bbq places but the price fits the value.

Driven by a million times and finally got the chance to try it out. Overall, it's okay. My friend and I each got two of the four meats available in the combos and shared them. The meats are alright, but I'm not particularly partial to the flavor of the BBQ sauce, has a faint kinda tabasco-ey hint to it.

The taste of the food is very good. But the portions tend to be on the small side for how much you pay. Service was ok. Only one person working but looked like the place wasn't busy at all considering we were the only people there.

The chicken was juicy. I believe the chicken was boiled and then put on a grill. Potato salad was just okay. BBQ beans looked good, it had beef in the beans, so I didn't try them. The serves was slow.

We recently went to JC's to get my daughters First Birthday Ribs. We looked up the prices on JC's website, and saw that a Beef Family Bucket meal was 52.87 and we were like "Wow! What a great deal!" So we drove to Saratoga CA to get it. When my husband got back to the car we saw that they charged us 79.99. Upon calling the gentleman that charged us says "Well I've been here for 25 years, I have no idea what the website says". We had just lost our dog so we didn't have extra money due to vet bills, the money we used for her birthday dinner was borrowed. We were expecting to be able to buy a cake and some other things after leaving JC's and instead we went home and ate our 87. Dollar dinner. I debated leaving this review because we love JC's. It's been a staple in our family for 25 YEARS+. Transparency on prices would be VERY nice. We would have waited to get it til we had the extra money. Update your website prices. Please. And don't be so nonchalant when customers call to ask why it's so much more expensive. If we could do her first birthday over again. We would. And the potato salad wasn't even filled all the way.

11:36AM and not a soul in the restaurant. The hours posted show 11AM is their open time but where are they? BAD customer service

Costumer service was good but concerns came from the food quality. I ordered some ribs and they were dry and tasted like they had been reheated. My husband ordered a hot link and flavor was missing. Best item from order was the side a potato salad. Had been to location previously about 2 years ago and can say quality has decreased sadly.

Bad decor, no customer service, drentched in bbq sauce no flavor or good cook on meat. Went for lunch special and not many good choices tasted frozen. Worst potato salad and regular salad qas lettuce with a galon of ranch. No care for food or kind service. Wish i cancled my order.
