JQ's On High, Jefferson City MO

Dropped into JQ's for lunch today for the first time. I knew it was going to be delicious when I saw how small it was. Just a little "dive" is what I like to call it; these places always have the best food! When we walked in we were greeted by a girl behind the counter who asked if it was our first time in. HUGE plus on service there. She gave us some suggestions and told us we could sit wherever.
We ordered at the window. Service was extremely quick and tentative. The fat boy bacon cheeseburger was made with ground briquet and HUGE! It came out piping hot with melted cheese and fresh crispy bacon. Delicious and juicy. The fries were hot and also very crisp and tasty. The wings were smoked and tossed in dat honey sauce. They were in fact jumbo wings. The wings were not my favorite, although I think it may have been the sauce. I would try them again with another sauce.

This was one of, if not the best burger I have ever had. I found JQ's on High on Google, and the reviews were great. Didn't have a lot of time, so I asked the young lady working for a recommendation. Without hesitation, she said the burger. So I did, I added cheese, and it came with chips. The Bad Boy Brisket Burger and JJJ sauce are DELISH! This is as good if not better than the Gordon Ramsey burger. I say better, and closer (2 hrs.) And much cheaper. It's a very small hole in the wall type place, but it was so good. The service was great and friendly. I ate out on the sidewalk. It was such a nice day. Next time, I will have more time to really explore the menu but still have the burger.

Best hamburger I ever ate I loved it and I've instructed my husband when he goes to Jefferson city he has to bring me hamburgers I cannot wait to go back the staff was awesome and friendly. Have I said I want to go there everyday

Amazing food! Awesome people, we will definitely be coming back! Me and my bestfriend went for dinner and were shocked! We got the piggy burger & pulled pork nachos absolutely fantastic! You HAVE to eat here if you’re in Jeff!

The food is fantastic! We're already planning our next meal there. Can't wait to work our way through the whole menu and try everything.

I am a burger fanatic and it is hard to find a great burger today. Even harder to find great service. You will find both here!

Came to Jefferson City for a ceremony where my son received a Medal of Valor. Wanted lunch afterwards, but not pizza or a big name restaurant we always eat at and you can’t go wrong with BBQ. Surprised when we pulled up and the building was smaller than expected, but I always support small businesses. Small packages=big surprises. Great pulled pork! And the portion sizes are huge! Great service and people were so nice! Love the decor! Definitely worth going back to!

This was the highlight of a 9-day roadtrip through middle-America. It's a hole-in-the-wall joint with enthusiastic staff. You enter the small space and are told about their city-best burgers and all their other recommendations. My mind was already made up before I entered - I was getting the Spugmaggeon. It sounded fun, but I expected to only like it at best because I'm not a big fan of pork. OMG. I loved the huge buttery potato, moist pork, tasty sauce, etc. Even my travel partner couldn't keep his fork out of it and he's not a fan of pork or baked potatoes! Now, I'm trying to figure out other reasons to get back to Jefferson City to have another! I attached a picture of my spud (minus the onions) after I took several bites.:) Oh, and in case it's not obvious, it's a meal! Not a side.

Amazing food! My new go to place in the Jeff area. I will now look forward to my weekends that I go that way.

This place and these people are amazing! Excellent food, and the staff went above and beyond. Enthusiastically recommend JQ's!

The food here is amazing. I highly recommend the Cuban and the shrimp po boy. You will not be disappointed if you stop in for a sandwich.

I just stopped and grabbed a sandwich and fries for my first visit. It is sooooo good. Absolutely delicious food and I have enough for another meal. Fantastic! I highly recommend!

It should be on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives!

The place is small but the service and food is enormous! THE BEST BURGER I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE!

It was one of the best meals I've had. The service was excellent. We all had something different and wanted more!
