    The best juiciest burger I've had in years.
    ADevoted W.

    "Hands down the best burger I've had in years! The vibe is pure Texas charm--warm, traditional, and just the right amount of cozy. And the staff? Absolute gems. Friendlier than a neighbor waving from the porch. A true Texas treasure!

    food was amazing!the service was great. there tables were so fun to draw on with a pen. they gave us are food almost immediately.There burgers were awesome! over all I would 10/10 would recommend.

    I always enjoy coming here during crawfish season. Seasoned spicily and I love the corn and butter.

    Cheap beer, great burgers, high times. This place looks like it was ripped straight out of the movie Roadhouse and it rules. Joe's feels like a local but classic Texas dive complete with names etched in the tables, old pictures of rodeos, and signs hanging on the walls from an era long gone. This place is pretty popular on weekends, especially during crawfish season. Mostly everything is good here but the burgers are top-notch and some of the best around. I get a burger basket with grilled onions and jalapenos and it's great every time, especially the meat patty which is seasoned well. I'd also recommend the Texas Toothpicks (Spicy fried onion and jalapeno strips) The ranch dressing here is great too. Awesome place all around, go during crawfish season, it's packed but a great time.

    GINORMOUS burger. It was great! Go with the BBQ Burger. Side of fries is just as massive.

    Came on a Saturday afternoon with the family and this is the "real deal" when it comes to a burger joint. Food, style, staff - it's all there! We came in on Saturday and it was light when we arrived but filling fast when we left. You go to the bar to order, so when you come in make a left towards the bar and they will think you know what you are doing. I had the BEST burger in a long time. Not under-cooked and, as my mom says, "not incinerated." I had the BBQ Burger and it was a wonderful mix. Great burger bun, real chewy bacon, tangy sauce, and perfectly cooked ginormous patty. You better come hungry. The fries were above average. Add your own salt if you want it that style. Pro-tip: bring change for the juke box and the pool table.

    Do they smoke in Joe's?

    No. There is a patio out back where you possibly could. But nobody was smoking inside.

    Came here after dinner nearby and what a gem of a spot. The decor and ambiance gives you that old…read moreworld charm with dim lighting and folks enjoying conversations. Forewarning, if you are someone who doesn't like cigar smoke, this won't be the spot for you. There are some nice lounge type seating in the back to relax with a cocktail while smoking your cigar of choice. While I'm not one to partake in cigars all that often, I can appreciate them on a special occasion. I can't speak to that experience here as I came strictly for cocktails and to enjoy the outdoor patio as the weather was fantastic. I'll also say that with how busy it was, it was a bit loud inside, but nothing out of the ordinary of a busy crowd. Let's jump in. Service - 5* Immediately upon entering and approaching the bar, I was greeted with a friendly acknowledgement and asked what I was looking for. I had an idea but was curious to see their menu. After placing an order, the drinks came out quite quick as they have a good balance of bartenders, I believe three were behind the counter so running drinks to tables and getting them seemed to flow well. Overall, the bartenders are attentive and the wait time for a drink isn't terrible at all. Cocktails - 4* The cocktails themselves are very typical classics. Their spirit selection is robust and definitely worth a look if you're seeking a clean, straight spirit to sip. All solid choices and there's a range for what taste profile you're wanting to have. As for execution and delivery, I didn't find the cocktails to be amazing by any means, but for the pricing, we were quite happy. Pricing - 5* I think with where prices have trended this place is keeping it consumer friendly and delivering. Overall - 4.5* I'd come back, I found the cocktails selection, spirit options, ambiance and patio seating options, and service to all land. If you're ever in the downtown Bryan area, I highly recommend stopping by here!

But more importantly they serve excellent cocktails! They have over 100 different cocktails and from what I could judge from the couple that I had, they must all be excellent. I started out with a caipirinha which just how I like it - not too sweet. My next drink was a pisco sour. It too was excellent and both were super-refreshing! But the kicker for me was that they have cigar smoking section. Since it's not a cigar lounge, they have a tiny cabinet humidor, but their policy is that as long as you drink you can smoke your own cigars. I came prepared with my own cigars and that made the experience that much more enjoyable. Next time I'm in town, this will definitely be a stop! Finally, they have a sister lounge that is a speakeasy that doesn't even have a name. We went to the speakeasy after dinner and the drinks there were also excellent. If you go to West End, ask them about the speakeasy!

The bartenders are so knowledgeable they can walk you through the entire menu. They will let you do a little tastings. The distillery also does tours during the day, but I guarantee you the bartenders here can help you find a drink that you will like and they will also walk you through mock tails if you are alcohol free. Endless amounts of seating are available for large groups, small groups. This is so perfect for a birthday party graduation date night a fun thing to do during the day if you're going to take a tour. The cocktails are seasonal with such fun names. This is such a cool gem, so glad I got to visit.

I'm in a powered wheelchair and the employee, Bobby, was nice enough to take me up a classy freight elevator to the second floor, where the reception was being held. It was a nice area, furnished with a lot of wood and lights. The reception had set up a nice buffet, and 200 drink tokens had been set aside for guests, although by the time I got there they had been used up. My girlfriend and I got a gin & tonic, and a vodka tonic, for about 11$ each, with both the gin, vodka, and tonics being brewed in house. They were very tasty, although maybe not 11$-tasty. Overall it was a lovely location for a wedding reception, the staff were helpful and friendly, and the drinks were good if just a tad pricey.

They have a surprisingly sophisticated menu. It's curated (i.e. limited) but well selected. We had pumpkin arancini, the steak salad and pumpkin risotto (it's Fall obviously). Don't pass up the complimentary bread and olive oil dip - great bread dip with herbs and fried garlic. The pumpkin arancini was crispy outside and creamy and rich inside. The seasoning was perfect. The pumpkin puree smoosh was silky and rich. Very restrained garnish of parmesan shreds. Excellent! The risotto was the same as the arancini filling. Just delicious. To be honest it's more pumpkin than risotto, but I didn't care because it was so tasty. Lots of warm spices but not sweet. The steak salad was a definite must-order dish. The steak was cooked perfectly and was very tender. The greens were fresh and the gorgonzola crumbles were ample. Great dressing. Ask for a small side of their amazing gorgonzola cream sauce to dip your steak. If you are having wine, stick with the Library aged selections. They're more expensive but definitely worth it. Recommended.
