★★★☆☆ 3.0 Y Lemmon (Lemmon Lane) · Oct 2025

We checked out this new location. Staff was friendly and they were very busy. The ordering process was self serve and not good (you have to order first and then find a seat) and there's not much seating. They should have a sign advising of the process on the door or at the counter. Items were available to order on the computer yet the location didn't have things like lemonade. No fryer at this location either. Every person that came in after us also had the same frustration with the ordering process. They should change their menus (computer/print) to reflect what's actually available at this location. The set up lacks and it is a small location. Food was good but expensive. There was about a 15 minute wait after ordered and we sat down before we got our food which was reasonable. Drinks

Jack’s BBQ – Grand Opening Breakfast, Federal Way Today was the grand opening of Jack’s BBQ in Federal Way, and I took my grandson for breakfast. The first thing you notice is the life-size cow on the roof — it’s impossible not to miss! The exterior is spotless and freshly painted, with bright neon window signs adding to the fun Texas vibe. Inside, it’s cozy and welcoming, with red-and-white checkered tablecloths and Texas décor filling the walls, including classic cow horns for that authentic touch. We arrived just minutes after they opened and were customers #3 and #4. The staff was friendly, and the full menu already featured all of Jack’s classics, plus a new breakfast section that’s a real winner. Breakfast includes three BBQ-meat tacos on flour tortillas with eggs, cheese, and pot

I ordered the breakfast tacos. 10/10. With each bite you get to taste the brisket, egg, and potato. Full of flavor. These tacos was hefty filled up with brisket, egg, and potato. The customer service was on point. Restaurant was very clean. The employee (didn’t get his name ) he was friendly , kind, and did a great job preparing and packing my food. Kudos to him. The best breakfast I’ve had in a longtime.

Our server was super nice!! My dad really likes jacks bbq but prefers the Algona location as they have a full menu, this locations menu is much smaller. The pulled pork sandwich was a bit smaller than I anticipated but still good. My dad ordered the brisket and loved it. I’ve seen other reviewers complain about the Mac and cheese…. But If you read the menu it’s “queso” Mac and cheese, which is not traditional Mac and cheese. I really liked it. I’ve seen other reviewers complain about the meat being dry. That was not my experience. They don’t cook the meat at this location. It’s brought up from the other location and probably heated up as you order it so that could be why. I enjoyed it and am looking forward to trying the algona location. 😊

Fantastic experience! The ribs were delicious and the beans were very well seasoned, but the highlight of the night was the cornbread, simply wonderful, definitely my favorite! In addition to the impeccable food, the service was top-notch. The young man who served us was extremely friendly and helpful the whole time. I highly recommend it! 🇧🇷 🤌🏼
