Do not sleep on this strip mall place that looks like it may not even be occupied when you arrive. You can smell the mesquite burning the minute you exit your car-didn't get a look at the pits. Upon arrival we were the only customers, creating questions. Really quiet. Only a young couple behind the counter. Minimal menu written on butcher paper tacked to the wall. Three meats available-sausage, brisket, and pork ribs. Simple sides like slaw and potato salad appearing to be commercially made, not in house. Neither of those are very good. One sauce on the tables with a sweet leaning flavor. I didn't ask about it's production. We ordered the three meat plate so as to try some of each. Sausage really good with a light burn of black pepper. We liked this very much. This was sliced behind the counter which I think is a mistake as it dries out as it sits on the tray during dining. Pork ribs came as two and a half bones and had an excellent pull. Not dry or over cooked at all. Brisket was a a very large pair of slices which was quite fatty imo. Was not asked what type we preferred-lean or fatty-but it had a lovely smoke ring, a deep rub redolent of black pepper, and a full mesquite flavor. The slices were best toward the top near the bark, as the lower portion nearest the fat was a bit too mushy for my taste. It was good with a drizzle of sauce and wrapped in the included white bread though. This very generous meal along with two beverages and tip came out to less than $30 making it a killer value when compared to other spots.

Mac's Bar-b-Que always satisfies !!! I've lived here most of my 65 years and have thoroughly…read moreenjoyed dine in and drive-through, takeout, catering, everything, And I am always pleased with not only the Quality of the food But also the service. One time years ago, I had a complaint about something, I went to the owner and the manager and presented my suggestion, and it was handled right away, and I've never had the same issue since. They truly cared about my dining satisfaction.

We had plans to eat somewhere else but it turned out their online menu was incorrect and they didn't offer safe food for me (allergy wise). BBQ it is! The older (than us) gentleman behind the counter was so patient with me as I couldn't decide between beef or pork ribs. I'm very obviously pregnant and so when he made my plate he threw in a pork rib for me to try to see if I liked one more than the other. They are BOTH delicious! Just making sure everyone knows. I ordered a beef rib plate with double coleslaw. My husband got sausage plate with double mac. I also got a sweet tea lemonade that I drank the rest of the afternoon because it it THAT big. Haha. This food made me feel like I was at a family cookout. We are heading back over to have it again before we leave for the season. Just absolutely delicious!

I can't believe I've lived in Corpus Christi for six years and never tried our local five-pound ode…read moreto Tex-Mex breakfast cuisine. I was surprised when most of my friends and coworkers had never even heard of it, and later, I gleefully showed them pictures of the baby-sized taco I ordered. For $12, you can't go wrong. The looks of awe from the faces of the children at the next table as they brought the foil-wrapped wonder out, were worth it alone. It came with potato, sausage, bacon, brisket, chorizo, egg, and cheese. I finished maybe an eighth of the taco there, and my boyfriend couldn't put down any more than a quarter of it at a time, afterwards. It was good enough to have for nearly every meal between the two of us until it was gone the next day. Portion-wise, it would probably feed four hungry adults with no leftovers. I only wish it would've been more chorizo-heavy, but this is a minor gripe. No-substitutions, otherwise I would have ordered it with more chorizo and potato, and less sausage. Be sure to take plenty of pictures, because this thing is impressive and you're sure to be the envy of your friends on social media if that's your shtick.

The food, the employees (family owned), the atmosphere was nice and quiet. It is a very cozy place…read moreand they were so kind to us. We ordered our food and as we waiting they gave us complimentary conchitas and they were AMAZING! I ordered the brisket chalupas and they were fantastic! This place is definitely 5 stars!!
