My husband and I went there yesterday. His first, my second time there. It had been years since I was there last, however. We both loved it. He was especially impressed. Great food, great service, no frills, awesome!

The pulled pork and garlic bread were fantastic, and I liked the spicy hot BBQ sauce. I was not quite as impressed with the turkey and the jojo potatoes. I enjoyed the atmosphere and service.

Pork plate. Jojos. Cole slaw. Sauce on the side. Tall beer. Perfect. Will always recommend this place to others.

The brisket was just so so. The Jojo potatoes had no seasoning

There are a lot of bbq options in Rochester, but John Hardys is the very best. Nothing fancy or corporate, just great food served by nice folks.
