This is by far the best BBQ I've had in the United States and I've gone to some of the best joints in Tennessee, North Carolina, and Texas. I'd all rate those sub par to what I ate in NOLA. BBQ Pork, Brisket, Ribs, Chicken you name it I've tried it. Now I didn't get to try them all here,... More

I do a lot of smoking at home and have eaten in some fine BBQ restaurants (Memphis, KC, Texas) so I was really looking forward to trying The Joint. It's kind of a cool, laid-back place that's maybe 4 or 5 miles from the French Quarter. You go up to a counter and order, then they bring you your food... More

I had no clue about this place and I was actually just thirsty and just wanted a Lemonade, walked in the door and I was not going to leave without trying and their BBQ and it was awesome (so was their smoker)! A must if you are in New Orleans!

Out of the normal tourist traffic area, this place was a pleasant surprise. Inside the place was immaculate and the service was first rate. The food was the best BBQ I have had in a very long time. Highly reccomended

The primary sauce is pretty darn good, but the sweet and hot are a little thin for my preference. But the brisket is where the party is. I have never, ever, EVER had... More

I live in Memphis, BBQ capital of the world-- I could eat BBQ everyday of my life- and I almost do. New Orleans is known for its seafood and cajun food, but this is the BEST BBQ that I have eaten in my life. I have been there twice now, I cant wait to go back. This will be a... More

I've eaten at top BBQ joints all around the country and The Joint holds their own. And certainly by NOLA standards, not traditionally known for BBQ, it's head and shoulders above the rest. Service is brisk and it's often super busy but I suppose it comes with the territory when the food is so damn good.

Excellent southern food in a nice environment. Go for the ribs and the slaw! There's also pickup available.

One of our best meals in New Orleans. It is out of the main tourist area, but don't let that deter you from trying this place out. Very charming local eatery with no fuss. Picnic tables and chairs for a relaxing BBQ meal. One of the best BBQ meals we have had. Succulent ribs, finger lickin' chicken, potato salad to... More
