    Brunch menu on Saturday and Sunday

    Lots of great stuff at anvil!!! Brunch on Saturday and Sunday morning!! Pooches menu and stein club benefits!!!

    Jalepeno Popper Dip
    Janna G.

    Honestly it's just not good... We ordered the jalapeño dip, the brisket burger, brisket mac and cheese and the brisket grilled cheese. The jalepeño dip was the best thing we had. We ended up not even eating any the brisket mac and cheese because it honestly was that bad. The service was nice but the vibes were off, there were flys everywhere and overall just would never come back or recommend:/

    Shockingly delicious! We got a fancy goat cheese apple flatbread pizza with cauli crust and it was amazing! My husband got chicken and waffles, and it was delicious too. I got some light hibiscus brew by Anvil and even though it's not something I would normally drink it was good. They were out of their IPA and that was the only downside. Great food without the snotty people! Will be back and already told my neighbor.

    Fries seasoned with fresh cracked pepper

    This was my first experience with Anvil Brewing and I must say I am impressed! I ordered the Texas Burger and it was EXCELLENT! The burger was larger than my head and came with a healthy portion of fries that were seasoned with salt and fresh cracked pepper. Not only was the burger patty huge, but it was loaded with so much shredded brisket that I could have made two sandwiches from the brisket alone if I wanted. This burger was perfect in every aspect. I can't wait to Try other menu items from this restaurant! PS: I could barely eat the half that I cut because it was so much food.

    Cracklins with spicy pimento dip
    D. Scott C.

    It was a hot day in June when we meandered into this joint. It wasn't much cooler inside...PLEASE get your a/c working!!! The atmosphere is a mix of bar and family dining. Our server was amazing! She recommended several dishes, which we ordered. Some were a hits, but some were strikes. Cracklins with spicy pimento dip was delicious. The fried chicken sandwich is good but not great. Patty melt was solid, but the fries could be crispyer. Coleslaw was good and the cheese beer dip was killer! Dessert was their carrot cake and a frozen brownie sundae...both very good offerings!

    We went during the first few days of opening, did they have opportunity to tighten up, of course it's a brand new spot. Staff was good and some even great. Food was legit, many different options and I went with the burger with goat cheese and bacon jam - that was great! This is in an old fire station and kept the theme, it was a really fun place. Will be returning again soon!

    Pup friendly!

    Open,simple but awesome space. SERIOUSLY HOW OFTEN CAN YOU TAKE YOUR DOG IN SOMEWHERE TO HAVE DRINKS?!! very much appreciated in the TX summer . There is outdoor seating as well. The staff was extremely friendly. We have an 8mo Cane Corso(110pds) that is still learning some manners and occasionally barks when not necessary. The staff was so understanding (he would bark 2-4x) and the owner even came over and introduced himself. The food was great as well. Definitely recommend getting any of their dips as an appetizer. And they have their very own Pup menu also!

    Brisket Mac & cheese
    Tabatha L.

    Food was very good, I had the brisket Mac & cheese and I loved it! The service was below average, we were there much longer then we should of been. I ordered a bloody Mary that sat at the bar for about 5-10 minutes before anyone grabbed it and brought it to our table. The ambiance was great, they did a great job!

    Hot inside, overpriced compared to similar restaurants, and the food was underwhelming at best

    Was visiting a friend in Denison a couple weekends ago, and for a small town, I was honestly…read moresurprised to find this hidden gem. The bar is super cozy at night, and the holiday lights really add to the overall ambiance, cool vibes all around. I didn't stay to dine-in and ordered out instead, but I could easily see myself sitting here playing cards with friends. The pizza was VERY good, and the summertime berry salad was even better (now goes by Strawberry Pecan Salad). Two days later, my friends and I were hungry and couldn't stop thinking about this pizza and salad. So we ordered out again mid day. This time we got a full salad, added chicken, and asked for extra toppings and dressing. Definitely ask for extra, especially if you're sharing, because the normal amount isn't quite enough. I'm a culinary dietitian and meant to ask for their ranch recipe, but totally forgot. Ughhh!! So delicious though! There was a small mix-up with the second order and we had to drive back, but the customer service was great and it was no issue at all to fix. Highly recommend!!!

As a bonus, the pizza was excellent, too. Nice, fluffy crust and plenty of toppings. Definitely stop by if you're in town or driving through.

    Chicken-fried brisket is the star of the show here, and it's every bit as legendary as the hype…read moresuggests. I went specifically for their signature dish (the one they proudly call themselves the "Home of the Chicken Fried Brisket"), and it delivered exactly what everyone raves about. They take a thick, oak-smoked brisket slice--already juicy, tender, and loaded with smoky flavor and perfect bark--then coat it in a craft-beer batter and fry it up. The crust comes out shatter-crisp and golden, never greasy or soggy, while the brisket inside stays beefy and moist. That peppery burnt-end gravy poured over the top is rich, savory, and ties everything together beautifully with a scoop of skin-on mashed potatoes on the side. It's pure Texas comfort food genius--smoky BBQ meets Southern fried steak in the best possible way. I'd order it again in a heartbeat (it's a Tuesday special or weekend brunch treat, so plan accordingly). The rest of the BBQ holds up just as strong. Their regular brisket (flat and point) is consistently juicy, tender, and smoky with that killer bark everyone mentions. Sides and other meats are solid too--no weak links. The house beers are fantastic and pair perfectly with the rich, smoky food (the rustic, woodsy vibe in the historic downtown Garland spot makes it even better for lingering over a pint). Service is friendly and the whole place just feels welcoming. If you're in Garland or nearby and love bold Texas BBQ with a creative twist, Intrinsic is a must. The chicken-fried brisket alone is worth the trip--don't sleep on it! Highly recommend for anyone who wants great smoked meats, great beer, and something uniquely delicious

    This place was great. You walk in and head to the back for the food. They have the full spread you…read morewould expect from a craft bbq place. We ordered a half pound of fatty brisket and a side of Mac and cheese. The brisket was well seasoned and perfectly cooked. It had a nice smoke but it was pretty mild for my taste. I liked the bbq sauce in the packets. I took some home for some bbq beans. The Mac and cheese was pretty good. It was thick and well seasoned. Really good for a cafeteria style serving. I like this place. I could see it in my rotation for bbq locally.
