        Overall

        I am new to El Paso and 13 Aug 2014, was my 1st time eating at Tony's. I have been looking for some quality Bar-B-Que in town and have found my place. Tony's you did a great Job and impressed me with your quality of Food and Service. My wife and kids showed up right before closing and they still served us just like they had just opened and we had a wonderful time eating and talking to the staff. Tony's I have tried over 9 different Bar-B-Que places in the area, but you area our #1. See you all soon!!

        On June 23, 1958, Tony Vargas Sr., along with his wife Lydia and children opened Tony’s the Pit Bar-B-Q for business. The family ran the restaurant from the original location at 1829 Magoffin until 1969, when it moved to it’s the current location at 1700 Myrtle Ave. Tony Jr. ran the business from 1970 until 1995 when he retired and he is currently employed with El Paso Community College as tenured faculty. Grandson Bobby operated the restaurant until late 1999. The management of Tony’s the Pit Bar-B-Q is under the leadership of Christina Vargas, granddaughter of founder, Tony Vargas Sr. Christina Vargas has been managing the business since 1999. She has learned every aspect of the business from marinating the meat to slicing it for the customer’s personalized sandwiches like her grandfather, father and brother have done. Under her management there has been a steady growth in sales despite the economy and exodus of downtown businesses. Christina’s dedication to quality and preservation of a family tradition welcomes you to come and visit her and taste Tony’s Bar-B-Q as it has been prepared and cooked for over 50 years.
