Brisket & Rice
Cindy H.

Brisket & Rice has been on my list to try for years since they first opened. Now that they've been recommended on the Michelin guide, I've been more eager to try. My husband and I finally had time to stop by on a Friday afternoon. It wasn't too busy and didn't have to wait long. Brisket with fried rice - 7/10 The Viet style fried rice was great and felt comforting. The brisket was not dry and had a smoky flavor to it, however, we were expecting a more depth of flavor. It was missing that oomph to it. Chicken leg quarter - 8.5/10 It was seasoned well and very moist! Surprisingly, we enjoyed this more than the brisket. House sausage - 8.6/10 What a flavor bomb! The sausage had a great bite to it. Although we felt the brisket was lacking, the fried rice, chicken and sausage made up for it. If we're back in the area, would love to try other items on their menu but probably won't go out of the way for it.

Finally made it here and without a line. I went during lunch time on a Thursday. Plenty free parking. The menu is easy and not too much. She explained the menu. I ordered the bbq brisket and rice. The order was done in 2 minutes. I was impressed. The brisket was luke warm but seasoned very well. It was good and tender with huge slices. The rice was really good but I didn't care for the sausage pieces in it. If in area on payday, I might go again. It is a little pricey.

So I recently moved to the area and was surprised that there was such an infamous restaurant right around the corner. After doing my research and seeing food bloggers post online about this place, I decided to try it! We went on a Saturday afternoon at 2 pm - packed! There were no tables available inside and there were people inside and outside waiting for their orders. That's something to be ready for if you come on a Saturday. Our order didn't actually take that long. Or maybe it took a little while and we didn't mind waiting. Either way, it wasn't that bad! Luckily it's located in a shopping area so there's always parking. My main gripe is that they close at 7pm. I'm sure there's a good reason for that but I've wanted to try it multiple times before but they've been closed! I ended up going with the infamous brisket and fried rice. The brisket was super tender - I was able to pull it apart with my fork. I typically shy away from brisket because usually it's tough. But this was delicious - tender and had a nice smoky flavor. Not overwhelming or too salty. The rice had a great flavor too. There were chunks of meat in that as well and the rice had a nice smoky flavor. Not too salty or greasy. It also came with some accoutrements - pickled onions, fresh pickled cucumbers, jalapeños, bbq sauce and bread. The cucumbers and onions stole the show - very fresh and refreshing. We were surprised at the pickled onions - they were soo good! Overall - worth the hype! I'll definitely be back to try ribs, chicken or pulled pork sandwich. I heard everything is good here!!

I liked the pork ribs, but the brisket was too dry and the sides were ok. Not the best Texas bbq I've had, but was worth a try! Service and people were good!

Was in the area so decided to grab lunch with friends since we've been wanting to check it out since it got a Michelin. The line is long but moves relatively quick. They had already run out of the beef rib by the time we got there. Ended up sitting outside because the inside is fairly small. Service is quick, fast, and friendly. We got a handful of things, including the brisket with brisket fried rice, the house sausage, and the pork ribs. We got the street corn and poor man's macaroni along with the banana pudding. The brisket fried rice was a little dry but felt really homey, even having Chinese sausage in it. The pork ribs were delicious and the house sausage was juicy with a great kick. The brisket was well seasoned. And the banana pudding had great layers with banana and vanilla wafers. Street corn had a lot of spice, so it was a little much for me. And the poor man's macaroni was tomato based, which wasn't my favorite and probably would have liked regular macaroni better. We also got drinks and the green apple soda tasted like jolly ranchers in liquid form. Great food and cost wise not too bad! It fed 5 people with some leftovers to spare for about $125. Will have to come back to try their other options!

Woah!! Their brisket and fried rice is phenomenal! Definitely come here for that and their mac and cheese! So good! Got the ribs, street, and a pulled pork sandwich as well. Those were solid! Will definitely come back for the brisket, fried rice, and mac and cheese

Brisket & Rice and Jalapeño Sausage Link

It is a little pricey for what it is. But it is also pretty good and a unique combination. The place is clean and tidy. The BBQ rice was good as well as the BBQ brisket. They make their own pickles which was nice. Indoor and outdoor seating. We drove by it before and the line was out the door but came back off peak and walked right in.

We came in on a rainy Tuesday afternoon and got serviced quickly. We got a variety of menu options to get a good sense of the flavor profile and were disappointed. Everything tried from the BBQ fried rice, jalapeño sausage, street corn, brisket (not pictured) and rib (not pictured) tasted bland, like minimal efforts were made to really season things despite looking quite appetizing. Their barbecue sauce came in clutch though and saved the day. For the price point, we came expecting more than what was delivered.

Brisket 1/2  lb with Mac And Cheese

The establishment itself is decent. Located on the east side of highway 6. Upon arriving, was met by a young lady who did a decent job. Not very inviting. The service is decent, with it mainly being a "get it yourself" kind of environment. Which isn't bad. Pretty common with BBQ establishments. The brisket was okay with it being relatively dry. Definitely not the best brisket I've had in Houston or anything I'd brag about to friends and family. The Mac and cheese was definitely good but that was about it. The fried rice was just fried rice. Nothing to rave about either. I've had better fried rice at traditional places. It was a decent experience, would not go again unless the quality changed.

Finally tried this spot! No wait time, but they were busy. I ordered the brisket and bbq fried rice with a side of Mac and cheese. Everything was pretty tasty but definitely overpriced in my opinion. Customer service was fast and friendly. The inside sitting area is somewhat small for their crowd but there's plenty of outside seating.

Falling off the bone!!! #Ribs
Jarvas H.

A much needed place for great BBQ eats in the northwest area!! Big kudos to the staff and the cooking staff who prepared delicious meats and side dishes. The meat was falling off the bone and the jalapeño sausage was full of flavor & spice. This was a great place for family and friends to have lunch, dinner, & everything in between. If you are in the Bear Creek/Copperfield area bring your appetite and enjoy!!

Finally got to swing by Brisket & Rice to pickup some lunch for takeout while on my most recent Houston trip! It's a bit of a drive for us but I'm really glad we got to try it. I wanted a little bit of everything so I ended up ordering the brisket & rice plate + three sides: the slaw, the loaded potato salad, and the poor man's mac. I also tacked on the banana pudding because I'm always a sucker for that dessert. The friends I came with also ordered the fried rice for us to share. We took everything home with us but had some other stops in between so weren't able to dig into the food until about an hour after we got it. Maybe that's why the brisket itself was a bit of a letdown for me? The fatty parts were excellent but the leaner bits were a bit too dry/hard for my tastes. However the sauce helped cover that flaw up, and brisket always tastes great with freshly steamed jasmine rice. I also really enjoyed the pickles and onions that came with the plates; the tangy brightness really helped cut through the richness of the meat. The fried rice was definitely one of the main standouts. I would 100% come back just for that! Really glad I got to try it. The slaw the day we went was a bit bland for me; not sure if it was just that particular batch but IMO it could've used more flavor or salt. The loaded potato salad was also just okay, but I quite enjoyed the hint of spice and general flavor profile of the poor man's mac. I grew up eating something similar so it really took me back. The banana pudding was also great. I realized after I ordered that I forgot to get a sausage link since I was also interested in trying those, but I guess that just means I have to come back again the next time I'm in town!

Food was very good and interesting. Really nice portions so we walked out plenty full. We had the brisket with fried rice, the signature dish. We matched it with poor man's Mac and the Cranberry Almond Coleslaw. We also threw in a half of homemade sausage. I'd say the best of the bunch was the Mac and Sausage the rest was good but not exceptional. I have to admit if I'm going for a BBQ fusion I'd find my way to Blood Brother's BBQ where everything is more intense. Counter Service was friendly but don't expect prompt. The fried rice is fresh so expect it to take 20min. The place is nice, well lit but expect a crowded dinning room thus heavy usage. We had to clean our own table.

Healthy eating…read more Service and atmosphere: Very good service. Both staff members were polite, friendly and helpful. The place was clean, organised and played good music. Food and drinks: Great selection of fresh ingredients to build your favourite salad. All chosen ingredients are mixed in a medium or large stainless steel bowl. You can also add side of soup and crunchy bread to your order. Everything tastes very good. You can accompany your salad with soda or tea of your choice. Pricing: $ - definitely worth visiting considering the amount of food and affordable prices.

After all the holiday food, we were craving healthy. I stopped by Salata for two large salads…read more We went all out in the fixings category, the salads were super heavy. All the ingredients were chopped fresh and plentiful. The fruit and nuts we added to the salads pushed them over the top. I added chipotle shrimp, chicken and turkey to my husbands salad. My salad had chipotle shrimp, pesto chicken and turkey. Toppings included cucumber, tomatoes, broccoli, mushrooms, bean sprouts, corn, olives, eggs, mixed and feta cheese, apples, grapes, strawberry and pineapple. As if that wasn't enough I added pasta and bacon bits. Good thing it wasn't sold by the pound. The buttermilk ranch and chipotle dressings are my faves. Actually all of their dressing is good. I wish they still sold them by the bottle. I cannot find a great bottled dressing for me. Also get the pita chips on the side so they stay crunchy. They had soup but I didn't get any. Two salads and two cookies came out to 53.00 but will be about 3 meals for my husband and possibly 4 for me. This is a great deal. We ate the salads twice yesterday and still have enough leftover for dinner today. The trick is to not put the dressing on the whole salad so it stays crispy.
