    Mac and cheese
    Kristi C.

    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.

    Pulled Pork Sandwich

    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.

    Little bit of everything.

    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.

    Rib Plate

    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.

    Two meat plate, fajitas and sausage. Rice and beans mixed with coleslaw for sides.

    See all

    This was my third visit to this BBQ joint we discovered earlier in 2025. I've eaten their brisket…read morepreviously and it is outstanding. It's the best I've eaten here in the RGV and coming in a close second to City Market in Luling, TX. It's that good! This visit I decided to try their Three Brisket Combo meal. It comes with three brisket tacos (corn or flour tortillas) loaded with brisket, a couple grilled jalapeño slices, grilled onions and some cilantro. They didn't need salsa but a squeeze of lime might've been helpful. The side I chose was their house made coleslaw which was pretty tasty. I ordered their green beans with onion and bacon but a few minutes after ordering a fellow came out to tell me they were out of the beans so I settled for the slaw. I also ordered an order of their house cut, tallow fried french fries. Man, were they GOOD! As in THE BEST FRIES I'VE EVER EATEN IN MY LIFE GOOD!!! They are worth the visit all by themselves. The combo meal comes with a bottomless drink as well. The wife and I split the Combo meal, added the fries and a small side of potato salad that she wanted. We each ate one taco and about half of the sides. So we had a leftover taco, some fries and half our sides for the next day. All for like $21. The combo meal is $13.99 which is a pretty good deal in itself. The fries were like $6 and well worth the price. We will definitely be back. I would also highly recommend their 50/50 Rice and Beans topped with Brisket Bowl. That provided two meals for me when I ordered it previously. You can't go wrong at this little joint.

    Excellent sausage, good brisket and good sides! Coleslaw, potato salad and creamed corn. We would…read morelike to return and try the chicken

    This was my very first visit to this restaurant. I'd heard mixed reviews but decided to give it a…read moreshot. As someone who loves BBQ and has tried many places like Lone Star, Ace's, Reyna's, and even HEB, I was curious to see how this one compared. Unfortunately, it ended up being a huge disappointment--especially when it came to the sides, which were the worst I've ever had. What We Ordered: I ordered the Chicken Fajita plate, which comes with two sides (though I'm not sure if I paid extra for the drink). I chose macaroni and potato salad as my sides and even added an extra side of mashed potatoes to try more options. My fiancé ordered ribs with the same sides. Our total came out to about $38, which is pricey for two people. Service and Presentation: The food arrived less than five minutes after we sat down--red flag number one. At a sit-down restaurant, I expect fresh, hot food, not something prepared long before and left sitting around. To make matters worse, we were literally the only people in the restaurant, yet the food was served cold. The portion sizes were underwhelming for the price. The chicken was hard, old, and cold to the touch, although the flavor was decent. The tortillas were hot but hard as a rock, and the pico de gallo was served in a tiny condiment container. I didn't even bother trying it. The Sides: The mashed potatoes were runny and flavorless, as if they were overmixed. However, the gravy was a saving grace with its pieces of green peppers and onions, giving it a homestyle touch. The potato salad was sweet and gritty, likely from a bulk wholesale tub like the kind sold at HEB, and it was far from appetizing. The macaroni and cheese was the biggest offense. It came cold in a Styrofoam cup (as did all the sides), and I couldn't get past the weird, sour taste. It wasn't a sharp cheddar richness--it was sour, like someone added lemon to it. Oddly, my fiancé's macaroni didn't have the same sourness, but it was still bland and unappetizing. It's safe to say my 10-year old brother couldn't have messed up a microwave kraft cup more than they did with their "in house" recipe. I will give credit where it's due. The tea, the variety of sauces, the ribs, and the overall cleanliness of the dining area were all decent. Final Thoughts: In my short 25 years, I've never had such an unpleasant experience with food. I'm greatly dissatisfied and can only hope this was an isolated incident. My advice? Please consider revising the recipes for the above mentioned sides, especially the macaroni and cheese. I'm usually the kind of person who gives restaurants a second chance because I enjoy trying new places and I'm not picky. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back here. It's just not it.
