Going back towards the restroom, there was a little bakery....LOTS of goodies!!! We got today's special , buy 2 bars get 3rd free...so far soooo good! They also had cookies, cupcakes & scones. Good place to stop while traveling through...they have a nice downtown shops too!

    I love this new BBQ restaurant in Newton! Atmosphere is nice--very clean, simple, open look. It is a great place for a casual lunch or dinner. My recommendation? Try the Brisket sandwich on ciabatta bread with sweet BBQ sauce and a locally-made root beer.

    I learned of Moo's BBQ from Facebook and was excited to get a chance to try it out. A thirty mile journey for some great bbq seamed like a good idea, however I was deeply disappointed. Most of the meat and sides were warm to cold so I am not sure, but mostly it seamed like leftovers from lunch. The portions are small for the price point. The ribs, I got the half rack with one side bacon mac & cheese. The ribs were very fatty, I prefer lean meat. They didn't really have any flavor. I wouldn't recommend them. The bacon Mac and cheese was very dry, over cooked and I had a hard time finding any bacon. I also got the two meat and two sides as did my wife. We wanted to try a few of the sides. The pulled pork was also like the ribs with no smoke flavor. They have three sauces and with the sauce the pulled pork was decent. All three sauces were excellent, the one really brings the heat and it comes later so watch out for this sneaky sauce. The brisket was mostly lean and was the best of the three meats I tried. Again it didn't have a real good smoke flavor and you could see from the smoke ring it was not a deep smoke. With the sauce this was also a decent bbq. The cheesy potatoes were just OK. The jalapeño cream corn was a home run. Highly recommend the corn. Great flavor and not to hot. Excellent. The smoked beans were also very good. Excellent side with the BBQ, these also had excellent flavor. Mostly from what I have seen, everyone orders sandwiches so I plan to try a sandwich, most of the sandwiches have sauce and with the sauce the BBQ is OK, but I expect more of a smoke flavor similar to Woodys Smokeshack or Flying Mango. Definitely didn't think it was worth driving sixty miles round trip to try this place.

    Found these guys on Yelp. Worth driving a little ways off the highway. Fun place, kicking out the blues, but no alcohol. We got the ribs, and some wings plus 2 sides and took it back to the hotel. It was delicious!

    Glad to see a tasty restaurant open up in Newton. We love having this local option when we choose to dine out. So far, we have enjoyed everything we have tasted..Smoked Chicken and Brisket for the meat choices and we have tried the bacon mac and cheese (not much for bacon flavor), cheesy potatoes, baked beans and our favorite, jalapeno creamed corn (better than Jethro's). We will definitely keep coming back to try more menu items. p.s. I know people talk about the prices, but we feel the prices are just fine for good quality food. Also, please keep in mind, they are a new business that have bills to pay (food, staff, utilities, etc..) and they need to put food on their own tables. I know that other BBQ joints tend to serve mass quantities - but we (humans) don't need that - that's too much food. So, please, give this place a try, the food is great!

    Very excited that there is a new restaurant in downtown Newton! The decorations are great, the atmosphere is awesome and the food was perfection! They feature four different meats and two different breads for your choice of eight different "sammiches". There are quite a few different sides - including bacon mac & cheese and cheesy potatoes! The highlight though? Four different bbq sauces with one featuring a local coffee shops espresso and another featuring a local root beer! One of my favorite features? The fact you get fictional characters instead of a "number" when you place your order - who doesn't like to be thought of as Princess Lei, Thor or Spiderman if even for just a few minutes?

    WOW! This place deserves nothing less then 5 stars!... My boyfriend and I stopped in on a Thursday night after a long drive and I am so glad we did! We both got brisket and two sides (2 beans, cheesy potatoes and, mac and cheese). They offer 3 bbq sauces which are all distinct. Go there and you won't be disappointed! Worth the 5 minute drive from the I-80.

    Simply delicious! Best smoked chicken I ever had....and the brisket was fabulous. Short detour off rt 80 but the best 8 min decision of the trip. We stopped for dinner on our way to Kansas city and it was so good we made sure to stop back for lunch on the way home. Clean bright restaurant, friendly staff and fresh delicious food. Perfect. Only complaint? Wish it was closer to home....

    Great meal. Ordered a full rack of ribs and they were awesome. I could only finish a half so I took the other half home. They offer three BBQ sauce and I recommend the bacon mac and cheese and the beans.

    This is my favorite place to order brisket! It is always good. The sides are also very tasty! I feel lucky to have such a great place nearby, so we don't always have to travel to Des Moines or Ankeny!

    The brisket is REALLY good! Moist but not greasy. If you are from Texas, this is waaaaay better than Rudy's, C&J's etc. I just wish they sold beer.
