i'm not a huge fan of bbq, but jethro's food was excellent. the atomosphere was fun, but finding aplaceto park can be difficult. i wish this restaurant would have been here when i was attending drake.

thisplaceis awesome. we split an order of waffle fry nachos and the brisket platter. the waffle fries were crazy good - chicken had tons of flavor with a nice little kick. the platter had a nice selection of meats, but i’ll admit that i will be getting burnt ends next time through; omg...

great atmosphere, friendly staff, just stop in.

thisplacehas the potential to be really good if they can serve a consistent product. i liked the flavors of the food but it was not as good as it could have been. meat was dry and i believe old. the sasuage had to much cumin in it giving it a dirty taste. beans were good, potato salad was as well. but this is a bbqplaceand not the house of sides. the prices were surprisingly good. since i'm traveling i won't be back to try thisplaceagain. i hope if you frequent this establishment you get consistancy.

not a bad place, just not a bbqplacefor me. the food was okay. the waitstaff lacked personality & there are too many tables crammed in there so you are almost touching backs. not a fan.

this was the new waukee location. my previous review was for the new location in waukee.


-----11 dec, 2011-----

a 3 hour wait at 7pm on saturday. this past saturday evening our party of 6 was told along with many others walking in and waiting, that there was a 3 hour wait. it was 7pm and theplacehad about half of its tables open. the head chef told the staff not to sit anyone for 3 hours due to the fact the kitchen was backed up and couldn't keep up. just unbelievable! a friend also told me the day before that they were told it was an hour wait for lunch! the food may be good but that is not good service nor worth a wait like that.

wings on tuesday are amazing! highly recommend the garlic wings. service was passable nothing to brag. thisplaceis all sports bar/grill. don't expect super fancy decor or service but do expect amazing wings! the outdoor patio is great to eat outside and see everyone you know walk or drive by.

bring back the old jethro's. my husband and i have been regulars of jethro's since theplaceopened and we used to come in 2-3 times a week for lunch and dinner. we love the food, love the beer, and love the servers. however, in the last 4-5 months our visits have been pretty rough.

we've definitely noticed a new batch of people working here and we are not fans. the whole reason we go to jethro's aside from the food and the beer is because the host knew us, the servers knew us, and the manager always made an effort to come over and talk to us. it made us feel like valued customers, so we returned. lately the food quality has been pretty poor and service is lacking. for a while now the hostesses have been high school kids, with no personality and don't talk to us at the door and when we get to the table it's the same with the girl serving us. we enjoyed the old servers who had fun with what they were doing and joked with us, not these new girls who lack any sense of a personality. although when we do get the old servers lately, they're definitely not as happy as they used to be, and the reason is obvious.

last week when my husband and i came in and sat at the bar we were sitting close to the server station and we were not happy with what we overheard. throughout the night, the bald guy, who we've assumed is the new manager (he's never once introduced himself to us) who was handing out food berated his staff, made fun of them when they walked away, and was generally rude to everyone in his path. we were thankful when it was his turn to go home. i could not believe the way he treated his staff and it shocks me that the owner would let this happen to aplacethat used to be so fun and free. we've definitely cut back our visits to jethro's and i can imagine other people have as well.

fabulous when it opened; slowly downhill from then. tonite meat was cold, sides and sauces watered down and we didn't get what we ordered. the upside of thisplacestarting to tank is that we got right in with no wait.

i gave it a "like" but..... i've eaten there a number of times. if you run a barbecue joint in iowa, you are going to get compared to hickory park or battles (both in ames).

it's ok. if you are in des moines and hungry for barbecue, it's aplaceto go. if i was near famous dave's, i would probably go to famous dave's.

it's near drake university so during the school year, it's usually fairly busy.

i've had a mixed bag with the beef brisket. sometimes fatty and greasy, sometimes perfect.

they charge extra for sweet potato fries. why? is that extra dollar going to break the bank?

great bbq at a reasonable price!. heard about thisplacebefore i moved to dm and i have had it on my places to visit for a while. boy was i missing out!!

i ordered the full rack of rib with waffle fries (see photo) and i was completely blown away. these were the best ribs i have ever tasted. they had a dry-rub on them and were smoked. they were also served without sauce on them but the table had 6 different sauces bottles on them to choose from. i like the hot bbq but the orginal jethro's bbq was great as well. the ribs were so tender there was no need to use a knife to cut the bones apart (just the way ribs should be!) the waffle fries were well seasoned and piled high. so much food i had to take some home.

the price was pretty standard i thought and it was definitely worth it! i will be visiting thisplacequite often.

great bbq and a fun place. love this place! the bbq is great, the sides are delicious, the waffle fries are fantastic (i love dipping them in the different bbq sauces), and theplaceis a lot of fun. the service is almost always friendly and fast. the prices are a little high for lunch, but it's better bbq than you can get anywhere else in the neighborhood so it's worth the extra few dollars.
