Jimmy Vega's Smokehouse

Wow, wow, wow!!! Food was amazingDid the build your own burger and let me just say... I'm in a loss for words at how perfect that burger was. I added meat from ribs with all the toppingsLoaded up on their pickles and grilled jalapeños with the nanas potato's salad (think that's what it's called) and crack corn (aka elote)! Its not cheap, but by far worth every penny ($30)

One of the few bbq joints in Georgetown that have a great dine-in experience. The staff is fantastic, the bbq is delicious and the sides are particularly gourmet with a lot of unique spices and flavors ie. German potato salad and elevated creamed corn. Their wall art is definitely fun to look at!

Outstanding ribs! Our first visit and we were very pleased with the food and friendly service. It's in a cute converted house right off Austin Avenue. Plenty of parking adjacent to the restaurant. We walked in and were greeted by the enthusiastic cashier right away. The carver in the back was prepping a large takeout order if ribs and seeing them made my decision for me. I got the rib/brisket plate and both were yummy. Ribs were truly smoked and not slathered with sauce. So I got the full flavor of the pork. The brisket was lean and tender and had a beautiful ring and bark. My sides were crack corn and banana pudding. One star off because the corn was overcooked and didn't have a taste that did anything for me. The banana pudding was really really tasty and I believe made from scratch. I'll be back for sure for the bbq and pudding but try a different side next time.

This is our first time to try this place. We thought a 4th of July meal was warranted. My partner and I both ordered the baby back ribs and lean brisket. The brisket was lean and very tender. It had a nice smoke ring and plenty of bark. The ribs also had a good smoke ring and the meat pulled right off the bone. My two sides were the German potato salad and banana pudding. Yes, you can get banana pudding as a side. It's homemade pudding with a homemade vanilla wafer. Although I didn't get pieces of banana, you can certainly taste it because I think they cook it into the pudding. We will certainly be back.

I've been a fan of Jimmy Vegas for a while now but was super glad to see them participate in the Two Step Inn Music Festival in Georgetown. Their entire menu is lovely and at a music festival, obviously they pared it down. I almost got the Brisket Mac and Cheese which looked creamy and delicious with the quality we've come to appreciate from Jimmy Vega's. Instead I selected a Smoked Turkey Leg and I'm so glad I did.We've all been to fairs and festivals offering smoked turkey legs and what you get is generally dry, flavorless, and more bone than meat. NOT THE CASE HERE! This thing was HUGE. I ended up pulling the meat off the bone and using the foil from the leg end to save it for later in the day. The meat was perfectly moist and tender and oh so much flavor. My only regret was not snapping a photo of this meaty perfection but take my word - it was awesome.The only "complaint" I have was that their smoked bacon was not on the festival menu because let me tell you, that stuff is amazing and I'll definitely make a trip to get some from their restaurant soon. Even after a "less than perfect weather" weekend, the staff working the booth was the same high-caliber I've come to know from their restaurant - the cashiers were friendly and inviting and those working behind the counter looked like a well-oiled machine working in very tight spaces.

We stopped in at Jimmy Vega's for dinner tonight as we wanted some bbq.The IDK Platter had a mix of 4 different meats and 2 sides and the food was pretty tasty. They had a white sauce which was mayo based and the. They had a spicy and a traditional bbq sauce. They also offer homemade bread and butter pickles. Best part is that 2 beers and 2 platters was $56.The atmosphere inside is pretty cool with an old school record player and lp's.Worth stopping by if you are in Georgetown, Tx.

Great food, great service, laid back enjoyable place.Usually they have a daily special where they come up with a new dish. A few I've had were amazing. Can't go wrong with their ribs, brisket, sausage, or sandwiches either.

We placed a to-go order. The turkey and sausage were good, but the potato salad and cole slaw were unique...just different than most other places. Our group would prefer something more traditional.For to-go bbq sauce, you have to fill these tiny containers which took a while to get enough for a larger group. The pickles were amazing.No bread was included, so we had to ask for it.

We've tried. We've really tried. Tonight I paid for burnt ribs. Salty and burnt: I can't anymore. I should have learned when the person slicing the ribs said "this is my last serving, are there anymore on the grill." But I assumed this place would not serve old, dried out ribs. Rationalize all the bad reviews you want, this place has yet to figure out how to be a functioning restaurant. You've lost our business.

Oh my goodness.We are bbq connoisseurs. My hubby makes the best brisket and pulled pork I've ever had.... Until today! He ordered the Breuben, and I got the pulled pork sandwich. Both of us chose the German potato salad, which came out piping hot and perfectly dressed in its vinegary sweetness. Awesome.My sandwich was topped with "not Cole" slaw, and it was the perfect balance to the pulled pork amazingness.The Reuben Frankenstein sandwich was truly a genius invention..... cheese, brisket, corned beef, Russian dressing, and amazing sauerkraut.We were there at lunch on Thursday. It was a bit of a wait.... But 100% worth it. We live an hour away and will totally be back.Wow.Best food I've had in a restaurant in a long long time.
