Business Owner

After moving to SLO in 2001 to attend Cal Poly, I fell in love with the traditional BBQ of the Central Coast. Desiring an inexpensive quick-service restaurant with authentic recipes developed over generations by SLO native families, I decided to open a "hole-in-the-wall" restaurant to produce this tasty fare. Today you can walk up or place your order by phone to experience the classic flavors of this local BBQ style. So come down today to see what Old SLO BBQ is all about.
