The food is incredible, and you can taste the love in every bite. Their coleslaw deserves its own special mention. It is not the heavy, creamy kind. Instead, it has a refreshing hint of vinegar and real personality that makes it wonderfully delicious. We also had the pleasure of meeting the manager, Sean, who was incredibly kind and took the time to answer all of our questions. In the main dining area, there is also a young man who is very attentive and exceptionally polite. The service here truly stands out. Between the friendly staff, the warm atmosphere, and the food that tastes like it was cooked with heart, this restaurant is a must‑visit. Highly recommend.

Been wanting to try the new Killens on the northwest freeway so stop today on our way to Brenham…read more First the pros. It was very clean. The staff were friendly. There was no line or wait for service Cons Very expensive. For two people $57, not including tip, you stand in line cafeteria style with your tray, order your food. Take it to your table, get your own drinks and they have an expectation of tip starting at 18%. No, that doesn't work for me. 10% at the most. The food was very average I ordered the special of the day, three brisket tacos, and it came with no sides no pickles, jalapeños nothing. The brisket tacos were OK but nothing special, not a lot of flavor. Verdict..... We won't be going back

First with the good- the band and weather were excellent, and our waitress was friendly. One of our…read moreparty ordered the fried catfish and enjoyed it. Now for the not so great- went to PCs to see some live music and have dinner with friends. I ordered the 2 meat plate with turkey, ribs, potato salad and green beans. The first plate I was brought was cold, so had it remade. They turkey was okay but a bit salty, the ribs were rubbery and definitely not fall off the bone tender. I did not finish either item. The potato salad was not fresh made and tasted like / had the texture of prepackaged potato salad. The green beans were canned as well. Another person ordered the burger and it was not freshly made, but likely a frozen patty. Someone else had a side of Mac and cheese and it had no flavor. Go for the drinks and music, but given the wide range of disappointment in the food, eat before you go.

Stopped by for lunch and was delighted! The atmosphere was really warm and friendly. We were seated…read morepretty quickly and service was initially fast. Per our server's recommendation, we tried the skillet brisket queso and that did not disappoint! It was really good - I just wish there were jalapeños to really give it a nice kick, but we enjoyed it. I ordered the brisket plate with macaroni & cheese and potato salad; got it with all the fixings: pickles, onions, and pickled jalapeños. The brisket is more fatty than what I've had before but I didn't hate it - I wish it had a bit more flavor. The star was their homemade BBQ sauce - absolutely delicious! The potato salad also was a tiny bit bland but I loved the onions and relish in it. Macaroni and cheese was alright! I had also ordered a coke zero and that came in a giant red cup which I appreciated. Our server slowly stopped checking on us after our food came out. It was a while before we could ask for a to-go box, our check, and even refill. That was unfortunate since I did want w refill but our server just never came. Overall, I would go back for sure for another lunch break and try their other menu items because the food was pretty good. They have a ton of stuff!

What can I say? It was REALLY DELICIOUS! We added mashed potatoes, cheese and Mac, and baked beans. Everything was just out off this world. Houston, we didn't have a problem. I loved the brisket and the turkey was nearly as good. 5 stars for sure!

Been wanting to try Cypress Trail Hideout and just never made the time. Walked in for dinner and…read morethe place was about 10% capacity if that. Requested a booth and hosted said they didn't have any clean. She went to grab a cloth to wipe down table. Table had empty paper roll holder. Swapped one with another table since waitress was talking with other employees. Then ordered IBC Root Beer and Glass of water. Went with Brisket Queso and Fried Pickles. The brisket was delish and the queso was ok. The Fried Pickles were so delish. Ordered brisket Sandwich and pulled Pork sandwich. Was hoping to have water refill but server did not come back until we were finished with meal. Server was nice, just wish she checked on our table more than hanging out with coworkers. Food was really good, brisket queso was not bad. Hope to go back next month for a better experience.

This one is quite easy…read more We walked in. Had a horrid experience with one of the managers as we asked questions and they seemed rather annoyed I was asking specifics about the fares being left, others that were not available, a filthy flat top, aside unclean surfaces, and then they walked off. We then decided to leave and had wings instead. That is about all I can say about this place as I usually love Spring Creek, but not having the chance to dine, I cannot opine (heh...rhymes) on their fares here. Based on this encounter alone...rock solid 1 star.

12.27.24 My daughter and I were having a shopping day and we…read moredecided to eat at SCB. It was around 2 pm, so it was not a line. We ordered - I had a turkey plate and my daughter had a sausage plate. My sides were coleslaw and green beans, and my daughter had mac and cheese and coleslaw. The only thing I liked from my plate was the turkey. The turkey was tender and juicy! The green beans were way overcooked which made them mushy. And I was not a fan of the coleslaw either. My daughter said the mac and cheese had not favorite at all. I tried and she was right. How can you mess up mac and cheese!?! She also did not eat her coleslaw. It was quiet inside, only one other table had people at it. Not sure what has happened to this SCB but I will not be returning.

We visited this restaurant on the recommendation of our son who has visited several times…read more I had the brisket sandwich and half order of brisket fried rice. My husband had the sausage, and my son had the same thing that I had. The food was delicious and the bbq sauces just enhanced the experience. The food is an explosion of wonderful flavors in your mouth. My husband is very picky about bbq, but he had nothing but good things to saw including going back up to the counter that share how much he enjoyed his meal. I highly recommend Brisket and Rice

Thank you so much Junior for making my order acutely and shout out to the chef who ran the raw frozen peas on the wok for a sista! That's the kind of love I admire and will definitely keep me returning.

Long standing wait at a single self checkout kiosk, just to have a long wait for food that was not…read moregood in any way. The French fries were garbage. The "Wings" are no good. The Jerked chicken was no good. The prices are way too high for the crap food you get. If you like expensive bad food with a long wait and want to eat food with styrofoam melted into it this is the place for you. I would totally recommend the fries and noodles FOR YOUR TRASH CAN!!! both those items went in the trash after one bite waste of $10 just for those 2 items straight to the trash. DO NOT BELIEVE THE GOOD REVIEWS HERE - THIS PLACE IS A RIP OFF AND BASICALLY STOLE $40 FROM ME BECAUSE ALL THE FOOD WENT IN THE TRASH SOME SOONER THAN THE REST. THIS place sucks - eat anywhere else.

I am sad that Brooks' Place is closed. I didn't get a chance to fully enjoy this food truck. I came…read morehere last October to meet with my foodie friends for lunch. But because it was on the solar eclipse day, I had to rush home before the traffic piled up on the freeway. The staff was friendly and the food smelled good. I was on a vegan diet at that time. I didn't try any food. Yeah. I completely missed out.

I came here for a UYE event & it wasn't as good as I expected. I wasn't going to write a review…read morebecause I didn't come for the 2nd time but since I won't ever go back I figured they'll need some constructive feedback to better themselves. This BBQ truck stand is located by Krogers and a lot of other stores so there's plenty of parking spots. They have some outside seating for you to enjoy your food as well. I decided to order their burger special, that comes with a brisket inside. I also got their Mac and cheese. So I thought my burger was below par. It tasted frozen and it was dry. They only gave me a half slice of brisket and that was dry as well. The only thing that I enjoyed was the sauce & the bacon. Other than that it wasn't worth a 25 dollar burger. It was ridiculous that it didn't even come with a side and you had to order that separately. If I'm making you a 25 dollar burger, I'll make sure that I make my patties in-house & on a brioche bun. The Mac and cheese were meh. It was clumpy & there was an odd color on it as well. It was also smoky which is fine but it had a charcoal taste to it. I honestly didn't even finish it. I was going to order some brisket to go but seeing as how underwhelming my meal was I decided to just skip on that. The owner did come out to greet us along with his flask which I thought was unprofessional. I also smelled alcohol breath when he was speaking well. I understand that it's your place and you can do whatever you want but I think there's a time & place to drink. Overall it was not a good experience so unfortunately this is a one and done.

Reheated, precut, dried out, under seasoned, AND lied about it twice. Table across the restaurant…read morehad juices flowing all over their food, our plate was dry not a drop of juice or melted grease on it! The potato salad is Ranch powder flavored which is lame. I used to be a meat cutter at Goode co bbq and I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE! Reheated bbq is awful and not worth $30 for ONE plate! This wasn't cut to order PERIOD. Other people complained about reheated food and they are right!

The food here is consistently delicious -- hands down some of the best BBQ around. While our order…read morewas incorrect this visit (which is rare for this establishment), Nicole, the manager on duty, handled everything with professionalism and genuine care. She apologized sincerely and made it right immediately. Mistakes can happen anywhere, but what truly matters is how they're handled. As a loyal customer, it's incredibly appreciated when management takes ownership and goes above and beyond to ensure a great experience. That level of service builds trust and keeps customers coming back. Great food, great leadership, and a team that clearly cares -- we'll continue to happily support this place.

Apparently it wasn't the same. I had their pizza which is fine, the quality has gone down a little bit. The service at the bar was hit and miss.

Love the TV's everywhere and the atmosphere. Hopefully the service has improved!

Car broken into. Right in front of the doors. The security camera for their parking lot? Yeah they don't cover the parking lot. We were seated quickly and got all of our initial orders in and after our first app arrived is when the wheels started to come off the wagon. Getting refills was painful. What should be a quick water refill turned into asking for someone to find our waitress because they had disappeared. Our meals that were ordered all at the same time? Came out at different times. One of my friends ordered a tri tip and the other followed suit. The first tri tip was so charred it was inedible. The other? Cooked perfectly. So she asked for it to be retired and the manager wouldn't even come to the table because she said "they all come out like that so we recommend something else like a salmon". Uh what? Steaks not cooked to temp and sending not even our waitress to address the issue? Yea no. Between the lack of management. The fact the weren't that busy and moved at a glacial pace, inadequate surveillance for their patrons, and just poor food quality I won't come back here. Bring back the lubys.
