AN ABSOLUTELY UNFORGETTABLE EVENING! THE BEST BBQ WE HAVE EVER HAD! Big John’s Texas BBQ, you were simply AMAZING! The best barbecue meat we have ever tasted, absolutely incredible in every way! Every single bite was delicious, and the quality of the food was outstanding. The staff were THE BEST EVER: so friendly, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely wonderful. They made us feel so welcome and made the whole experience even more special. And the band, Indians and Cowboys, was absolutely fantastic! What an incredible atmosphere, what great music, and what a wonderful way to spend an evening! We are Italian, from Milan, and we have travelled quite a bit, but this evening was truly something special. Everything was perfect, from the food to the service, the music, and the atmosphere. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SUCH A WONDERFUL EVENING! We had the best time, felt absolutely fantastic, and will remember this night forever.

Absolutely incredible BBQ right in the heart of Page! Big John's Texas BBQ is a must-visit. The brisket was melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the ribs were packed with authentic smoky flavor. What really made the night special was the amazing live band playing outside—the music was fantastic and the atmosphere was just perfect! Friendly staff, quick service, and generous portions. If you're visiting the area, do yourself a favor and eat here. 5/5 stars!

Very good authentic BBQ. My wife and I shared a #10 sampler plate and a #1 pulled pork sandwich. Very generous servings and we needed a box to go. Cool atmosphere and great service.

Richtig coole Location! Die riesigen Smoker an der Hauptstraße haben nicht zu viel versprochen. Erstklassige Rippchen, leckeres Pulled Pork und eine excellente Wurst bei bestem Service in einer tollen Location. Zu dritt haben wir mit Tip rund 100 Dollar gezahlt. Achtung: Kreditkarte kostet 3,5 % Aufschlag. Wir waren am späten Nachmittag da. Da war es noch nicht so voll. Abends heißt es Schlange stehen, dafür gibt es aber auch Live Musik

Atmosfera incredibile e il cibo era buonissimo.
Mein Mann hat hier seine besten Rippchen jemals gegessen! Dazu gab es einen frisch schmeckenden Kartoffelsalat. Ich bin vegetarierin und habe den Coleslaw in Medium bestellt, der mich gut satt gemacht hat! Sehr lecker!!

We've had quite a bit of BBQ in Texas- Big John's is right up there- good food, atmosphere, service and pricing.

“If you are looking for a tasty BBQ, generous portions, and exceptional service, Big John’s Texas Barbecue in Page, Arizona is the place to eat.

Recommended by travellers from Australia, the menu did not disappoint. The smoked brisket, pulled beef nachos and coleslaw were easily shareable and very affordable.

The setting was relaxed, the service was quick, and the staff were friendly. Our waitress Vicki was personable and didn’t hesitate to stop for a chat, and we even met the pit master himself.”

“Recently relocated to area. Stopped in on a Friday night and were pleasantly surprised to hear a live band. We ordered the nachos and they were superb! Music was an added bonus and we enjoyed ourselves immensely.”

“This is our favorite place in Page. Love the smiling faces of the staff. The food is incredible. Some of the best BBQ we’ve had anywhere (sorry Texas state). The only thing I’d add to the menu is Mac and cheese. A must visit in Page! Especially if there is live music.”

"Tripadvisor Review"

“We just moved here from Dallas Texas and the BBQ here will stand up to some of the best BBQ places we’ve been to in Texas and that’s saying a lot since Texas has some of the best BBQ in America. The service was great, very friendly and the food came out hot and quick. We loved the live music and the down home country feel, this was our 4th time back and we’ll keep coming back”

“We wandered into Page, Arizona recently for the Antelope Canyon slot canyons and Lake Powell, Rainbow Bridge, Horseshoe Bend, whew! There is a lot going on in this little corner of Arizona. The food scene, however, left much to be desired. We drove past this place several times and noticed the smokers out in front of what looked like an old gas station. Big John’s Texas Barbecue, 153 S Lake Powell Blvd, Page, AZ 86040, proved to be a delicious find! Both the beef brisket and the pork were smoky and tender and loaded with flavor. The barbecue sauce was exceptional and complimented the meat perfectly. A one-pound serving fed two of us and even provided leftovers. The coleslaw was a surprise too. It was really good, obviously fresh house-made. We were so impressed we got another order to go for the next days lunch on Lake Powell. The remodeled old gas station provided a cool, retro vibe to the place. We knew it would be great by this alone! Service was friendly and excellent. We were wisely counseled out of 2 orders of the meat as it would have been too much (how refreshing, this has only ever happened to us in Italy). The only mistake we made was going to the Mexican restaurant down the road for our next dinner which was horrible. I could have eaten at Big John’s every night as it was real food cooked with real care.
