Honestly the food is okay but it always fresh i can always give them that. My biggest issue is you will order something and they won’t tell you it’s not available or in stock. It’s very annoying. When you order something it’s simple to say “we currently don’t have this”. So when you order I would ask do you have everything I ordered. I just wasted money because I came in for a dessert and didn’t leave with it. The food is above average and the customer service is average.

Found this restaurant while on a random trip through Missouri City and glad we did! The food was soo delicious. I got a chopped beef baked potato and it was so huge it covered a whole dinner plate. The smokey flavor was on point and the meat tender. Would definitely recommend. Small hole in the wall, family owned type of restaurant. All the staff were friendly and sweet.

I was blessed enough with Covid they were willing to place my order on my truck. They were kind and courteous. I was disappointed about the online menu prices being very different than the actual prices. Now as a cook I'm particular about giving honest assessments so those that read my reviews gain a healthy perspective before visiting any establishment I review. The food here was for sure not the best. It was generally good but for me average at best for Texas barbecue. The potato salad was the best thing I ordered and some of the best I've had. The cornbread should have butter brushed over the top when it comes out the oven so it's not so dry. The Mac and cheese over cooked, swollen noodles that were just short of paste in consistency. It was my very first time eating Oxtail and for me it was the same as neckbones but with less meat. Oxtail was good just not great. The brisket didn't fall apart like great brisket should. The cake was decent. For the $$$ spent I was disappointed. Again they were very kind and accommodating and service was great. Just to call yourself the greatest barbecue you need to at least be very good. The Ribs were dry and tough but tasted pretty good. The rice was watery, and the greens were average at best. So overall I'll not go back because it was way too expensive for $70 plus dollars and nothing stood out except the family loving type atmosphere and friendliness of the people coming out and going into the store. I believe the place could be way better with just a little more love put into the craft of creating the food. I suggest they update the menu prices as well so they don't offend more people that expect a price about $25-30 less than they spend.

Came here to give this place a try. Needless to say, I won't be going back. Ordered sliced brisket and beef sausage. The meat was old and dry. Look at the picture of my plate and guess the days. The sliced brisket was as thin as strips of bacon. The rice was decent, and the potato salad was actually really good. Also had a baked potato that had the same old meat shredded on top of it. It was tossed in the trash before I could take a picture of it.
