    Hickory Tree located In Joshua,Texas. I have been coming to this establishment, since they opened, for great food and mixed drinks. Staff is always upbeat and helpful. Tonight, starting with White Russian and ordered Chicken Del Rio, (baked chicken breast) with a delightful cream sauce, baked potato and seasoned vegetables which were squash and zucchini. All was very good and I love their jalapeño cream sauce. After eating I chatted with the waitress, Melissa, greeter Aylen and also another nice bubbly young lady named Alise. All the young ladies were sweet, there was a lot of smiles and laughter. The establishment was clean, organized and well kept . In the Bar area they TV Screens and happy people ! They offer a variety of food, anything from grilled meatloaf to Tex-Mex to salmon. I do recommend Hickory Tree Grill. Enjoy your meal !

    Bar Area - Spacious & Nice!

    We recently moved to Godley and decided to give this restaurant a try for a lunch date. Sat at the bar...Ordered a beer & mimosa then Chicken Fried Steak (with the jalapeño gravy) & Fish Tacos. Both entrees were hot, fresh & just DELICIOUS! Looks like a great place for Happy Hour too! Will definitely be back!

    DO NOT SLEEP ON HICKORY TREE GRILL! Came in by accident, but will be making the 45 mile drive on purpose moving forward! Came in to super friendly staff, was served an amazing dill pickle martini then my FREAKING perfect burger and fries arrived! This is a must stop if ever in Joshua TX!

    I love all they have on the menu but the hand cut fries and homemade ranch are my favorite thing! Bar fully stocked and it's never a long wait if any when you arrive.

    Outstanding location. Open concept and beautifully done in a old rehabilitated building. Huge bar, bottle, draft, mixed and wine. Texican type place. Brisket infused food choices, great burgers, chicken fried steak. Just a great place for Joshua. Feels like something you would expect to find in FW. It's semi foodie which I like. Definitely will be going back. Food was delicious, felt like the brisket tacos were a little over sauced on the sweet side. The smoke and texture was plenty good to carry the dish IMO. Burger out of this world good, the Texican is amazing. Home cut fries aren't my thing in general bc it's hard to get them crispy. I think that's how home cut fries are in general. They were very fresh and tasty but prefer crispy fries or tater tots. Definitely going back to try two more dishes. I dig this place.

    I think this place was really talked up so I was expecting so much more. I ordered the Chicken fried chicken which was bad but I also ordered the Cajun gravy and for a $3 charge it was delicious cut barely covered my chicken. My mashed potatoes and corn were not hot they seemed as though they had been sitting out for a while. We ordered my grandson fries and grilled cheese and it was ok. I did love the fried pickles. They are the spears not the slices which my husband didn't care for but I loved them!!! We plan to return I think I will just order something else next time. I will review again once I try it out for a second time.

    10/18/20 Sunday 3:00 pm. This place used to be the next city over and just never got a chance to try, I so missed out! This location is great; the restaurant is industrial but not cold, perfect for old town. It is a biscuit concept restaurant earlier in the day and at 3:00 it changes to Hickory Tree and dinner. It was pretty quiet when we came in. We ordered the fried pickles which were spear and not chips. They were excellent not too greasy nor salty. We split a smoky meatloaf dinner with 2 sides we choose green beans and cajun mashed. The meatloaf was perfect not overly heavy as most meatloafs can be the bbq sauce that it is topped with is made in house and set off the smoky meatloaf delicately. The mashed were hot, a little zip and had a great flavor as well. Lastly green beans a little spicy as well with bits of bacon and well seasoned. Great meal and shout out to Araceli our most excellent server! Forgot to take a picture. Priced well, hot food, solid meal, excellent service!! Dessert next time and there will be a next time! Sorry no pic.

They have multiple sides that you can choose from and they also have peach cobbler and banana pudding that is completely mouthwatering.

The atmosphere is extremely friendly even the customers like chatting with others. So you can walk in alone, but walk out having new friends. I highly recommend Roscoe's Smokehouse in Burleson Texas. They offer great parking, great beer and alcohol beverages, appetizers, and friendly faces! If you love barbecue, then you must try Roscoes Smokehouse conveniently located in Burleson, Texas close to Kroger's and the movie theater .

    Go. Show up early. Wait. Order lots of food. Don't forget dessert. It's all worth it…read more... Hands down, the best barbecue experience I've ever had. I was born and raised in Texas, so I've had my fair share of barbecue, but Goldee's takes it to another level. I recently moved away from Texas, and for my last weekend in town, all I wanted was one more great Texas barbecue experience. A few friends and I decided on Goldie's on a Saturday, and knowing it can get busy, we committed to the full experience. We showed up around 8:30 a.m. with lawn chairs, a cooler of drinks, and some games, and turned the wait into a tailgate. Right before they opened, a staff member came outside and walked everyone through the menu and ordering process. She explained the regular menu items and the specials they were featuring that day, which was helpful when it came time to decide what to order. And as a group of six, we ordered a lot. Honestly, that's the way to do barbecue: get a little bit of everything or, in our case, a lot of everything. The sliced brisket was fantastic, the pork spare ribs were excellent, and the pork belly was incredible. The pork belly was probably the biggest surprise for me because I've never considered myself a huge pork belly fan, but Goldee's may have completely changed my mind. The jalapeño sausage was also delicious. They were featuring Brahman that day, which was similar to brisket, and that was another standout. We also got a beef rib, which was, of course, fantastic. For sides, we had the mac and cheese and pork hash, and both were excellent. And then there's the banana pudding. I love banana pudding, and I genuinely don't think you can leave Goldee's without ordering it. Even a couple of the guys with us who aren't big dessert or sweets people were raving about it. From the food to the staff to the entire experience of hanging out with friends and tailgating before opening, Goldee's was everything I wanted for my last Texas barbecue stop. If you're serious about barbecue, Goldee's needs to be on your list.

    Update: As of July 2026, brisket increased to $42/lb, pork ribs up to $34/lb, turkey down to…read more$32/lb, pork belly up to $34/lb, sausage is sold by the pound (one link is ~$8). Rating: 10/10 Date Visited: 5/10/2025 I ordered the Brisket ($36/lb), Pork Ribs ($30/lb), Pork Belly ($30/lb), Turkey ($39/lb), Jalapeño Cheese Sausage ($7), Bread Budding ($7), and Banana Pudding ($7). This place is AMAZING, it's the best BBQ I've had in my life (I lived in Texas for 20+ years). All the meats were amazing. The pork rib was the best thing, so tender and juicy. The pork belly was a huge surprise - it's so good too. The turkey was one of the most moist turkey I've ever had my entire life. The sausage was cheesy and juicy, one of the best ones I've had. The brisket was solid too, but surprisingly my least favorite of all the meat I ordered. The desserts were decent, but I don't think I would order that again. Would 100% come back and it's definitely worth the 2-3 hour wait. I would recommend coming early at 8 or 9 AM to wait in line and avoid the food selling out (which happens as the day goes on - pretty much everything is sold out by 1 PM).

It is a small operation putting out a high quality product in a small town environment. Everyone that works there is so nice and personable. So we found the place with Yelp and I am a sucker for small bbq places. We walked in and were greeted as we entered the door by two very nice women. They gave us instructions on how the ordering works and told us the Thursday special. Loaded backed potato. We chose the fillings and the meat. It was the tater, dessert and drink for $15. We had seen the size of the potato already and chose to split it, had it made with fatty brisket, and of course a 1/4 lb of sausage. We took our order up to the window and met the namesake of the restaurant, but by we did not know it then. The options in that simple dish was great. Again, fatty brisket, we did sliced on the side, we actually got both jalepeno and cheese, as well as regular smoked sausage. The sweet tea was great, not too sweet, perfect for my tastes. They insisted on carrying the tray out for us. Epic- the brisket was tender, juicy and perfectly smoked. The bark was great, had a touch of spice on the back end. The sausage was perfect. Honestly, I never asked for Bbq sauce, never needed it. The owner came out later, struck up a conversation. Let us know future menu items of which I am looking forward to. The banana pudding was sweet, but good. They are moving in a few days, but just around the corner. I look forward to stopping in again at their new location and new menu items. Just throwing this out as a recommendation for a future option: To go with the real potato fries that you are adding, consider adding fatty brisket on top, cover in shredded cheddar with a little pico and sour cream as well as jalapeños. Just a thought. Good luck!!!
