    2 meat combo with short ribs and brisket.
    Rubén L.

    I'm always on the lookout for a new place to get some BBQ in the 956, and luckily 492 BBQ just opened up. So this is t a typical BBQ joint where you walk up to the counter, order your food and take it to a table. It's a standard restaurant where you sit first, get your menus, and order. Menu had great options, combos and one of my favorites-tacos! I ordered a two meat combo with short ribs and sliced brisket, potato salad, beans and a brisket taco. But being that this is the RGV, beans were charro beans and I chose tortillas rather than white bread. Food came out pretty quick and it all looked great. The charro beans had good flavor, and the potato salad was good but I could tell it came from a commissary. However, the meat was cold, not even like warm, and I was anxious to give it a taste. Short ribs were flavorful, almost like a Thai flavor sauce was lathered on the ribs, and it was really tender but for the price it was a thinly sliced of two short ribs not more than 2 inches a piece. Brisket was also tender but cold as was the brisket in the taco. Unfortunately my party was in a hurry so I didn't send it back for a reheat, but if it were to be served warm then the meat would have been fantastic.

    The place is really nice and clean. Has a really cool modern look. The staff was kind and quick to service us. The brisket was delicious, but the sides weren't that great. Charro beans and rice were pretty bland. My husband got Mac and cheese and potato salad as his sides and he agreed that his sides were also bland and the meat was delicious.

    I've been to Franklin's, Snow's, Black's, Salt Lick and many other BBQ places. 492 BBQ in Edinburgh is one of the best. The food was outstanding, the place was clean and Martha, our server, was excellent. This was our first time here and we will be back soon to test their consistency.

    Castle hills looked like a great new place to try and has a Michelin star chef behind this, so my…read morewife and I went for the first time last week. First impression we great. The menu had all the makings of a great restaurant and everything sounded delicious. The atmosphere looks nice and loved the "no mames way" bar. Unfortunately first impressions can be deceiving. I got a their 6 course tasting with wine pairings and my wife got a charcuterie board and a rib eye. The charcuterie board was less than adaquate. We got the small board. It had a good amount of blue cheese and a small wedge of a spicy cheese that I'm pretty sure is Colby jack. It was a bit strange the cheeses weren't cut or sliced and fairly cold. So with only a butter knife it was difficult to eat unless you just bite the cheese wedge. There was also just two small round slices of prosciutto a few grapes and some honey. This was not a great start. Then I got my first course. It was a ceviche (chef amuse) and bread. Complete 180. The ceviche was light and fresh, not super lime forward. The bread omg this bread and the herb butter was probably our favorite thing we had. I wish the board had this bread because we just disregarded the carbs on the board in favor do the bread. Second course was a brioche bun with pulled pork and onions on top. It looked great but it was far from good. Brioche is supposed to be soft and fluffy, though this one was hard and dry. The texture was like a corn bread. The pulled pork flavor was flat and the texture was like it was ran through a blender for too long. It was like baby food with a slight pulled pork flavor. This was just terrible all around. Next was the scallops, damn these were amazing scallops. Perfectly cooked, not rubbery. The sauce complimented it so well. I wish this course was bigger because I loved those two little scallops. There was what I think is a piece of prosciutto that looked nice but was burnt to a crisp, like bacon that you forgot about and it crumbles at a touch. Then my wife got her steak and I got a "pork steak" the steak, while a bit overcooked (we ordered med rare) was still very tender and season great. There was a strong and delicious rosemary flavor to it. The giant slice of tomato and head of galic on top was very strange though. The pork though... was a block of dry flavorless meat. This was so overcooked, there was zero juice and I don't know if they thought the sauce would make up for a lack of seasoning, because it surely did not. It was just two small strips and I couldn't finish even one. Lastly was the pre dessert and dessert. The predessert was a sorbet with a couple wafers in it. The sorbet was delicious, not too sweet, and the wafers complimented it well. The last dessert was a chocolate soufle. The presentation was great, but again, that was the only good thing about it. The soufle was still VERY raw. It was like a bowl of uncooked eggs with a couple bits of bread. Soufle should be soft and gooey in the middle but this was the majority of it. The only solid part was the top. They put ice cream and WAY too much chocolate on it so even if it was fully cooked all I could taste as chocolate sauce. So of the 6 courses 3 were good but the other 3 were terrible. The wine pairing were well done, though the white wine I got probably needed more aeration and less bits of cork. The service... was a huge miss too. With a multi course meal and at any fine dining, you usually get more info from your server. Like they'll tell you about what's in the food, what they do or what makes it fine (ie their pork versus just grilled pork). Or maybe why they choose that dish, did they have a connection to it, did they adapt it from somewhere, you know something more than just here's the next course, bye. This was especially obvious with the soufle. They have some table service for it but there was never any mention of said table service so when they went in with a spoon to break the soufflé, I thought they were handing it to me. This isn't something that is the wait staffs fault personally, that's definitely a training and management issue. There is no expectation of giving an experience. That's fine for a regular restaurant, but when you brag about a Michelin star chef and their tags are "classy" and you have the chefs Netflix episode played on loop... something is awry. Then you look closer and that's about on par with everything here. It's a lot of LOOKING nice, not authentically nice. There faux brick panels everywhere, there's bottles filled with water as decor, there's cheap dirty grill on the patio. It's a lot like what I got with their food. It's all looks great, presentation is awesome, but it didn't have what counts most, taste. I included our receipt for you to see everything we ordered. We spent a total of $186 before taxes and tip. Also wtf 4% admin fee?

    Amazing quality food and beverages. This is a must try and repeat. Chef is top notch.read more

I would def go back for both of them! I know there are more items on the menu but these two are really good!

Even though it said cheeseburger special, bacon cheese special would have been more correct. Burger came with lots of cheese. American, fontina and blue cheese crumbles. It had thick cut crispy bacon. Spicy Mayo and grilled onions. The burger was amazing!! On par with the quality of the Antler Burger. It was seasoned perfectly. The patty was juicy, crispy on the edges and well seasoned. The cheese was melty and oozed out of the burger creating your own cheese fries. The fries by the way were significantly improved over the bland ones I had previously. This time they were seasoned with a few spices and given and extra coating to make them super crispy. Much better. Again, I can't reiterate how good the burgers at Sendero are. The other items on the menu sound so good and I would love to try them but when a burger is this good. You get the burger.
