“I had the opportunity to try the burnt ends, not something I’d normally try, but glad I did! They were amazing, juicy, had an amazing texture, and the flavor was on point. My only regret was wishing I had more. I also had potato salad which was also really good! If you’re in the area, Larry J’s is a must try!”

“Great little BBQ spot in Boston... we were staying at the Seaport hotel and found Larry J's on Google maps, just a block away. Ordered from the website, and it was ready, as stated, in 15 mins. And i got a 'ready' text. I saw outdoor seating - nice shady, open area, but took ours to go. It's on D street... "D" for damn good! We tried the Burnt Ends, Smoked & Fried Wings, and Smoked Pulled Pork, all crispy, tasty, and yummy ♡ Thanks Larry J!”

“This was absolutely delicious! I ordered the smoked brisket platter with Jamaican jerk sauce on the side, along with bbq spaghetti & collard greens. Portions were generous, food had great flavor and the brisket was tender & juicy. This place is right across the street from the Renaissance hotel, so it was about a 2 minute walk. Customer service was great & they had my order ready within 10 mins. If you're ever in town, I highly recommend trying this gem!”
