    Experience the best bbq in Willacy County. Danny and Belinda welcome you. Wall decor and coffee station.

    Smoked meats, in house made sausage links and home baked sweets by owner Belinda. A must stop when in the area.

    The Gobbler!

    I had The Gobbler yesterday and it was so good! A sandwich of smoked turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy! It was Thanksgiving in every bite! And I topped it off with a perfect chocolate chip cookie! As usual, the servers were helpful and attentive. Great food with great atmosphere! I'm definitely having this again.

    Smoke: Texas BBQ & Watering Hole - This was lunch.  It consisted of beef brisket and turkey.  While apparently of high quality, I left hungry.

As a 55 year native born Texan that's had BBQ Everywhere and a former restaurant manager. Smoke is MY SPOT for TEXAS QUALITY BBQ.

There wasn't much of a wait when I went and there was a full bar, but no one really manning the bar. Look the place was great and not that it was their fault but there was a large group and they had small kids literally running around and yelling. It was crazy. I almost colliding with one when I was coming back from refilling my drink. No one asked these kids/parents to be careful or have them sit down. I would go back for the food. My boyfriend had the chicken and I did taste it. It was very good and seasoned just right. I didn't get photos of the food this time, but when I go back I'll update!!

    Smoke: Texas BBQ & Watering Hole - Looking back in from the perimeter, and you can see tables, the large square bar, and a roomy vibe from the open ceiling

    Smoke: Texas BBQ & Watering Hole - So, in a way, they provided dessert by walking around and distributing these tasty cookies.

    If you find yourself anywhere near South Padre Island, do yourself a favor and order the shrimp…read morescampi at The Grouchy Gringo. It is nothing short of outstanding. The shrimp are perfectly cooked--tender, plump, and buttery--so fresh they practically melt with each bite. The garlic-infused sauce is rich without being heavy, coating the pasta in a silky finish that brings everything together beautifully. But what truly elevates this dish are the tomatoes. They are delightfully sweet, bright, and bursting with flavor, adding a fresh, vibrant contrast to the savory scampi. Every forkful strikes that perfect balance of citrusy zest, garlic warmth, and natural sweetness. The Grouchy Gringo may have a playful name, but there's nothing grouchy about this plate. It's the kind of dish that makes you slow down, savor each bite, and already plan your next visit before you've even finished. Absolutely five-star worthy.

    The Grouchy Gringo is a new restaurant since the last time we visited SPI two years ago. We like…read morecajun-creole food so were attracted to this restaurant right away. On our first visit, we were enthusiastically welcomed for lunch. The dining area is to the right side of the main entrance. Our waiter was very friendly and accommodating. He stayed a bit at our table to tell us a little bit about the restaurant. The menu you is very fun to read. For lunch, I ordered a cup of chicken and andouille sausage gumbo. The "cup" was large enough to share although I really didn't want to share it. I can't imagine how large a bowl of gumbo will be. I love good gumbo and this was very tasty. A slice of garlic bread is included with the gumbo. Delicious! I also ordered the "fried yardbird" sandwich which is a batter-fried chicken sandwich with crispy lettuce and a large tomato. French fries are included with the sandwiches. My husband purchased the "Friday Special" which was a flounder, nicely breaded and fried and a side of the french fries. We returned on Sunday for breakfast. This Sunday happened to be a cold windy day, and we were the first customers to arrive - definitely grouchy gringos due to the cold and the wind. We had a different waiter this time, and he was so friendly and greeted us warmly. He changed the ambiant music that was playing to a nice selection of soft "blues" which happens to be our favorite music. We both ordered Polly's Biscuits and Andouille Sausage gravy. Polly's Biscuits and Gravy includes two small, but very flaky biscuits and a generous portion of gravy. We also ordered scrambled eggs as an add-on. We were pleased with this selection for breakfast. By the time we left the restaurant, we were pleased to see many other people arriving for breakfast. The Grouchy Gringo is a very large venue, so I hope that it will become a very popular location in SPI because it is definitely a "keeper." It will be awhile before we return to the island, but we will definitely return to The Grouchy Gringo.
