Parker John's BBQ & Pizza

Let me preface this by saying we did not eat at the actual restaurant but ordered for delivery via DoorDash. We were visiting Oshkosh and staying at one of the hotels. We searched and found this place. I didn't notice when placing the door dash order that the place fulfills their own door dash orders. Ok, no problem. Ordered and it said 30-45 ish minutes to deliver. Great, we order the Everything but the Kitchen Sink pizza, curds, and armadillo eggs. The 45 min window passed and we assumed they were busy. Waited another 30 min and called. They said they'd be here soon. Another 30 min passed and my kids were getting hangry. Decided to go down to the front desk to wait (put in the notes, please go to the front desk and ask for room X and I'll meet you down there). Opened the door and the food was sitting there. Not sure how long it was there, but no call, no text, nothing that they arrived. With that said, nothing was hot anymore. So I'm taking that with a grain of salt. The pizza was pretty good. I should have asked for no banana peppers but we picked those off. The aramadillo eggs had a kick! My kids who like jalepenos were like they are too spicy! They are an interesting concept! The curds were good. Overall, I would not order for delivery again but I would check out one of the locations for their meats. Because their BBQ selection sounds pretty good.

The atmosphere was great, and our server was nice. The bar lounge area was clean and had a very classy feeling to it. Our food tasted great! This is for sure a good spot to visit for lunch. The only downside to our visit was that the gambling machines were not working, and neither were a few of the toy claw machines.

I Yelp to help. I am not a complainer. This one was hard. I am trying to find a good pizza in Oshkosh. Sadly, this wasn't it.I ordered delivery. They were kind and delivered on time. In fact, they left there pizza warmer behind. I thought it would be ho made pizza crust. I don't think so.The ambiance was simple- they even left the hot warmer behind! Good call.I was hard core searching for a good pizza place in Oshkosh.They did try. This is what I received.

On a road trip we 'Yelped' for our dinner stop and settled on Parker John's. Our order included the cauliflower wings and a Texas two step platter, which included pork ribs, brisket, cucumber salad, sweet potato fries, and a piece of cornbread. To be honest, we were disappointed in the food. Everything tasted lifeless and required sauces to add flavor. The cauliflower wings were mushy (previously frozen?) with too much sauce, the brisket was rubbery and the ribs were overcooked. The cornbread was served with a butter packet, and desperately needed honey butter, honey, or something. The service was very friendly, but our server was a beginner and it showed. The ambiance was lively, and included a nice mix of new and old country music. In a nutshell, the restaurant felt like a corporate location that lost its edge.

We have driven past this location several times since I've been staying up in Oshkosh and last week we finally went for dinner. I am so happy that we did! The menu is some of your basic barbecue options but it also has some great one-of-a-kind items that I hadn't seen before as well! I chose to try the loaded stuffer potato which is a fully loaded extra large baked potato with your choice of barbecue meat. I chose brisket and I was not disappointed! My boyfriend got the Texas Burger and he loved his as well. The restaurant itself is nicely divided between a bar portion and a family dining room. They do offer all day happy hour Sunday through Thursday with different options each day, but it's nice that they keep that to the bar side of the restaurant. The service was wonderful everything from how nice our server was , to the fun shirts that they wear. They also have great daily specials including a Wing Wednesday, Rib Thursday and Fish Fry Friday that includes shrimp. All of these options are all you can eat although I'm not sure I'm pricing but we will definitely be finding out! I would go back in a heartbeat!

We got takeout and My family loved the food. It was hot and delicious. Can't rate service or ambiance, because takeout. I had the bread less Cuban and my mom and daughter loved the pulled pork sandwiches. I'm giving a 4 because I ordered quinoa as my side since it showed as option and got peanuts in shell instead?! Would've preferred a reach out to choose something else. We will still dine here again.

Visited Parker John's from Ohio- the best Bloody Mary I have ever had. We had a large group, servers broke down checks correctly, were extremely accommodating to all food allergies, and took the time to make sure everything turned out exactly as we expected. My only critique is that the cornbread was cold as if taken out of refrigerator before serving. BBQ was amazing. Yes, no one talked at our table after the food came out! After digging in we all realized we were CHOWING down. Parking was super easy, and convenient. We will absolutely be back next year! The vibe of the restaurant was very friendly and so helpful. Lit perfectly (imo) and not too loud. We enjoyed our entire experience.

The Sconnie Stuffer (1 LB potato with pulled pork and Mac & cheese) might have been one of the best things I've eaten in my life. I gained weight after finishing but it was delicious. The BBQ sauce was also very, very good. Was in town for the IMSA Road America race and landed on this delicious combination of things. I love Wisconsin!

I love, LOVE Parker Johns brisket. But tonight I tried the Friday fish and shrimp. It was so good. It's endless, but one plate was all I could eat as the portions are huge. And the cornbread was perfect! Our server was friendly and prompt.

Good food, large portions, great waitstaff. Quick service. Great place to take family.
