    A nice little find in New Caney..this review is based solely on personal preferences. The food was good and tasteful..(could of used a bit more seasoning. (Personal prefrence) We had the fish, fried green tomatoes and onion rings. I will ask for it to be fried extra crispy next time (personal preference). The coleslaw was a little juicy (runny) for my taste. (Again personal preference).. customer service was great. Definitely will go back again and try some other items on the menu.

    Ok.... Lets start with the help. They were very courteous. The little helper that was there was a cutie! The food...I ate the grilled catfish tacos. They were good EXCEPT it was swai and not catfish. Hubs had the Sampler...he said it was good but...it wasn't catfish. Big disappointment for us about the catfish but overall we rate them a 3. The food was good but the fish was not as expected. Boudin was good Fried Oysters good Fried Shrimp good.... O yeah..No signal so you have to ask for the wifi password

    This is an $18 plate. I was over charged on every single item I ordered. A side of fries was $6.

    Menu prices are not what you pay;they are much higher. Food is warm at best. Service is awful. The girl behind the counter was on Snapchat while I stood there waiting for her to acknowledge me.

    We finally decided to give this place a shot regardless of past bad reviews. We both agreed if we walked in and it was dirty or smelled dirty we would turn around and leave. I am so glad we went in. The place was spotless and it smelled really good, ,no heavy old grease smell at all. The service was fantastic and we were feeling pretty positive at this point so we started with the fried green tomatoes. Oh my goodness they were done perfectly and such a crazy amount. No way could we even eat half of it! Then we both had the fried catfish and shrimp with okra, fries and onion rings. Everything was super hot and cooked very well. The onion rings are a must!!!!! The fish were smaller nuggets and fried crisp and the hushpuppies were delicious with corn in them. I was amazed at the amount of food and we realized we had enough for at least 2 more meals. I was going to pass on dessert but peach cobbler is really hard to say no to so we got some to go and wow!!! Do yourself a huge favor and get the cobbler. It was amazing, peaches were cooked perfect and the perfect amount of cinnamon. I had it for breakfast the next morning and I want to go back for more! So back to those bad reviews many years ago.....I don't know what happened back then but whatever it was it has been fixed and the new management is doing an amazing job. Please give it a shot and leave a review because we need these small business owners and I want to enjoy more of that cobbler!

    Amazing local barbecue spot for the New Caney/Splendora area!! This place's food is NUTS! You don't…read morehave to drive all the way down to Houston for some quality BBQ - just pull up and see why this place has been around the area for 15 years. My wife and I came on a Friday and it was our first time. They generously let us try some of their barbecue FOR FREE because they were confident we would find something we would like. We got samples of the marbled brisket and their house-made sausage along with their homemade sauces - let me tell you we just ended up getting entrees of the things we tasted because I just wanted more of it. Lol. Their brisket is so tender and juicy that it basically starts to tear itself apart when you pick it up. It goes toe for toe with some of the best in Houston. The house made sausage we ordered sandwich style - two buns, plenty of sausage and topped w/plenty of fixings. We also got their corn and brisket Mac n Cheese (YES, they have B-mac) as the sides. They were also amazing: the corn was generously lathered in butter and slightly sweet. The B-mac was incredibly cheesy and also savory thanks to the delicious brisket juices mixed with the noodles. Can't forget about the service as well. Very friendly, very helpful and super proud of the food they serve. They stand behind what they are cooking and serving to people. I love that they are so close to home and have been here for a while. You can find their food truck parked in front of the Scarlet Barbell Club gym on Wednesday-Saturday's. It's a decent size lot that has plenty of parking. They also have a tent and a little table in front. HIGHLY recommend trying them out. If you love barbecue, you gotta come and see what they're serving up!

    I like some good BBQ. I'm a bit of a BBQ snob. I've been to the rusty buckle because everyone…read morerecommended it but it wasn't good. This is good BBQ. I had the brisket and sausage plate plate and it was so good. Brisket was very moist and sausage was really flavorful. He also makes the sausage himself. A bit pricey but no diffrent than corkscrew, tinroof, or Pinkerton and IMO pretty up there for being a food truck (and catering as well)! It's worth because he's very generous with portion size where others weigh your food. . They are both really great folks. You can tell they love what they do. Will be a repeat customer.
