The food is NOTHING to write home about and it is OVERLY PRICED for the miniscule portions that are given. People don't mind paying for food, but seriously make it worth the price you charge. The sourdough bread they serve is NOT sourdough - AWFUL. The fajitas are okay, but again, the portion is ridiculously SMALL. The chips are SOGGY, even after asking for more and mentioning the problem, we got more of the same. The ONLY THING that was good, was the lemonade. The wait for everything is LONG. The wait would have been okay IF the food would have been worth the wait, but sadly, IT WAS NOT. I have to give a star in order to leave a review and this is the ONLY reason it gets 1 star. -UNDERWHELMING- read more

Outstanding service, they seated us 30 minutes before closing without a problem and assured us we didn't have to rush. Food was out in minutes. Brisket & BBQ sauce was delicious. My partner and I each ordered "Plate 2" (a meat with 2 sides) and it was more than enough food, had to take some to go. Lovely restaurant, with timeless ambiance, it just seems like everyone love their job here. read more

Read the reviews today thought we would give it a try . Ordered 3 meat plate and two sides The Brisket was over done and 3 little pieces beef ribs were DRY and bland and the sausage was too cheesy not jalapeño taste whatsoever. Now for the sides buttered corn and KRAFT macaroni Mac n cheese . What a waste of $$ . Won't be back you all can try and waste your money and time .. Just disgusting that this BBQ establishment thinks that it can charge for this kind of Fake ass food ! read more

Always great food!!! Well-rounded menu selection. Comfortable atmosphere. The staff treat you like family. read more

Really good bbq. Fun spot in a older home. Well kept inside with real pride of ownership. Back room and yard for large parties. Prices were unbelievable and the ribs were amazing. My husband got a michelada and it was huge. I would recommend their lemonade too. Other hits were the brisket baked potato. I thought everything was super tasty and look forward to the leftovers in the fridge. read more

Really great BBQ restaurant! One of the most western/southern styled restaurant I've been in. There's a huge array of BBQ foods like lamb, pork, chicken, etc. The sauce on the table is sweet and savory on the meats. Had the pulled pork sandwich; very tender and juicy sandwich. Even had bacon on it which was unique. The fries taste great too. The front of the shop has take home desserts and has the aesthetic of a tavern. Prices are decent and service is friendly. Love this little trinket of a place. read more

492 Bbq - Pulled Pork Sandwich - Barbeque Near Me - Mission, Texas

I am totally addicted to their Steak fajita meat!! The flavor is great and the meat just melts in your mouth!! Their tortillas r really good too! read more

One of my coworkers brought me a three meat plate from here that was absolutely huge. I would say it's average barbecue but decent. Would eat here again. read more

The chicken, ribs, and cheese sausage were on point, definitely a must try item. I'm disappointed with the brisket, slices were cut too thin and had a lot of fat. Plus they were slathered with bbq sauce. Also the fajitas were tender but I didn't care for a certain spice that was added to them. Others than that I'll probably drop in again for the chicken and hopefully get to try the Dino ribs next time. I'm also curious to try the lamb. read more

492 Bbq - Little bit of everything. - Barbeque Near Me - Mission, Texas

The food is alright. I was expecting more as far as quality because I've been to the Edinburg location. The Mac and Cheese was literally just Kraft which was disappointing. The ribs were alright, a little tough but the brisket was pretty good. Will likely end up going back to the Edinburg location and will definitely not order the Mac and cheese again. read more

492 Bbq - Rib Plate - Barbeque Near Me - Mission, Texas

Nice place with very friendly staff. I was told the ribs are excellent, but nobody had any left fore to try. Even my wife snubbed me and didn't share. I had the brisket, it was OK. They serve it sauced and there was no choice of lean or fatty(moist for those that don't like the word fatty). I was given lean and would prefer a mix or all fatty. Hey its either flat or point muscle, the flats for pastrami and corned beef. You straight up eat the point. Very thick cuts, a sign that it's over cooked. No bark on any pieces so I can't speak to there rub. Mac & Cheese was good flavor but a little dry. I love the gooey stuff. Overall we will go back again if we are in the area. read more

Friendly staff, plenty of parking,prices are reasonable, food is very good, I would like to go back for the dinosaur ribs, hard to make it on a Saturday however. read more

Their food is just amazing plus desserts.. Love pecan pie for my wife and lemon pie for me

Ate here one time. We won't be coming back. Their brisket is sliced paper thin and yet it still was tough and dry. It was the worst brisket I've ever been served. Period. And in Texas! We had to pre-order our baby back ribs as they only cook a certain number of racks. They weren't bad, but they honestly weren't that good either. The wife's chicken was pretty dry and not very smoky either. Our sides were just ok, nothing memorable at all. Save your money and go to Ace's, Original Willey's, Rudy's or Smokin' Moon BBQ all of which are infinitely better bbq than 492. read more

Excellent, friendly service. The food is magnificent. They are also knowledgeable about the needs of gluten free people. Love it!

Excellent food and great service. We will be back Met friends there so very good times read more

I had the lamb ribs. They tasted good but very tough and not much to them. Mostly bone. For sure not worth the price. Staff was nice but not very organized, we had to track someone down to pay our bill. We would try again just because they may have had an off night. read more

Visited the 492 bbq restaurant in Edinburgh, very nice and clean establishment. Service was great very attentive waitstaff and made great recommendations. Food was delivered fast, and the portions were nice. I had the two meat plate of fajitas and sausage, rice and beans mixed with coleslaw for sides. Hand to force myself the last bite, I was stuffed but just had to finish it mmmmm good! Wife had short ribs and potato salad with green beans for sides. She rave about the ribs being so tender. Prices about average to other bbq places, and the selections are numerous. I would definitely go back again, and recommend this restaurant. read more

Not the most beautiful atmosphere. The staff was attentive and prompt. The BBQ was OK, but not the best. The brisket was tasty. Nice owner in the house. read more

The BBQ is always excellent and the atmosphere is fun too. We moved very close so enjoying it even more.

The food here is authentic! The service is very good! It is a very humble place! The ambiance is so cozy!

Food was great and the service was super. We really enjoyed the meal and the atmosphere. Our order was taken right away and the food came in no time., The place was packed. They even had a table of 20 in the outside building. So we were very impressed at how fast our hot meals arrived. Would recommend this restaurant to everybody. read more

Ambiance: This is such a cute and unique place to eat. It's a 2-story house that was converted into an adorable/rustic restaurant. It was fairly packed when we came in, but our order was taken right away and we received our food in only about 15 minutes! They have a lot of seating inside, as well as a semi-outdoor seating area in the back. Food/Drinks: -The pink lemonade was delicious. I thought at first that it would be artificial tasting because the color was so bright, however it very natural/light/refreshing! *Would definitely recommend ordering the pink lemonade We ordered the 2 meat/2 side plate with pork ribs and chicken with onion rings & potato salad -The pork ribs were very tender and tasty -The bbq chicken in my opinion was the best I've ever had! It was sweet, savory, and fell right off of the bone -The potato salad had a great taste and was super creamy -The onion rings were so good! Unlike a lot of other restaurants that make their onions rings super greasy, 492 managed to make them so light & airy We also ordered the 1 meat/2 sides plate with sliced brisket and rice & beans -I absolutely loved the brisket and the sauce that it came with was perfect for rounding out the flavor -rice was delicious & the beans were great with a ranch style taste Price: For bbq, especially good bbq this place is extremely affordable and definitely worth the price. read more

We were super excited to try good BBQ, but we did not get it. Brisket was tough, lacked smoke, and was drenched in a super sweet sauce. Oh, and you probably have had their macncheese, since they served us Kraft (I confirmed)! Cole slaw was also sweet, French fries frozen not fresh, just no - don't go read more

Came twice because I came opening day and granted the staff were doing their best. But I was proven wrong. Portions were to small for the pictured price. Additionally, the slices of brisket were thinner than the bread given. I felt skimped out on sauce as chicken fajita and smoked brisket were on the dryer side. The beans were decent with a strong cumin flavor which not sure if it added or deterred from the flavor. The absolutely heart breaking thing was their mac and cheese... As a college student I've seen plenty of craft mac and cheese and was surprise to see them on my plate. Service was amazing with staff attentive and answering any questions I had about the menu. Stars are mainly for amazing staff :) read more

This is our second time here and it reminded me we should go more often. The food is super , just what a Texas barbecue should be. Each of the four of us had a different plate from 3 tacos to biscuit to ribs and chicken to pulled pork So much food I took 1/2 of my ribs and potato home. The only negative I can mention is the attitude of the server when we said we wanted to eat outside. But I am sorry that because of my situation I think I would die if I got COVID so I will never eat indoors especially with unmasked people. Yes it was cold but that is what we wanted to do. I just seemed we were putting her out and we probably were but that's how it is. Why advertise outdoor seating if you don't want to offer it? It all turned out ok though especially after the food arrived. It was soooo good read more

Delicious food and great service. In and out in less than 15 minutes. Great choice of location

Service was horrible! Owner was disrespectful after we waited 1 hour for our food. We asked to take our food to go and the owner kept being rude and said that we were "pinches viejas" and threw away our food. Never going back and will ask my school to remove them as a vendor. read more

The owner of this restaurant was EXTREMELY rude. She started yelling at us. Refused to give us our food. She called us "pinches viejas" and then proceeded to throw our plates in the trash can. We had been waiting for OVER AN HOUR for our food so we asked our waitress WELL IN ADVANCE to put our food in to go plates. Worst service I have ever experienced. I will not be returning to this restaurant ever again. read more

Nothing like it used to be, Sadly ! Recipes have changed and cooks ! Rice was dry ribs were tough ! Beans were sub par ... chicken was still pretty good ! Hopefully the new place is better ! read more

Love the food. The ambiance is great, the service even better. Good BBQ Texas style. I would definitely try the ribs and sweet tea.

The worst brisket I ever tried in the valley or in Texas as a matter of fact. It tastes like the one from HEB that they have ready to go and the mashed potato taste like they got it from HEB. read more

492 Bbq - Yummy for my tummy!! - Barbeque Near Me - Mission, Texas

This is the best bbq bbq in the Rio Grade Valley that I've had. The fajitas are soft and perfectly marinated. They have just enough salt. The ribs have the perfect bite. The Mac and cheese reminds you of growing up and Kraft. But it's so good. And the hospitality is beyond welcoming. Everyone is so helpful and quick to serve. I will put 492 BBQ over the Salt Lick and every other San Antonio and Austin bbq place. read more
