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...
ย ย ย Read moreI live near this spot and saw that it got 4+ stars, so figured I'd give it a shot. When I walked in I didn't smell anything resembling bbq, which was a giant red flag. Nonetheless, I ordered the pulled pork sandwich and it was absolutely terrible. I'm pretty sure it was just a pork rib chopped up and put on a bun. I even found several small pieces of bone, one of which I bit down on in the first bite. After two bites I left and went to a different bbq place. I usually don't write reviews but this was the worst pulled pork sandwich I've ever had, so I feel I have to say something. Waste of time and money imo. I would give it zero stars, but I read that their beef ribs were good, so I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. They also had big portions so I gave them a little credit for that, even though it was gross. I realize that might not make sense, but I guess I appreciate the fact that they didn't give me a skimpy portion in addition to the terrible...
ย ย ย Read moreMost of these review forget to take into account their age. Recently, taday in fact i stopped by to eat some ribs for the first time in a couple years at JCs and they were arguably some of the worst ribs I've ever had. First of all, they didn't fall off the bone at all and I had to fight so i could take the teeniest of bites. Then, the sauce wasn't very good, and neither were the sides. Howwver their salad had great ranch dressing, it was very overpriced considering it was 3 ribs for 14 dollars and the yield of meat from each rib was minimal. You would think for nearly 15 bucks, they would atleast give you a good piece of garlic bread, but they managed to find the thinnest piece of bread possible to serve as a flavorless piece of garlic bread. Also some of the ribs were cold. Overall...
