    2 Meat Plate
    Jeremy H.

    Visiting Mesquite Texas? Ya gotta try Texas bbq! This place has been here since 1959 (just in case you're unaware). Easy to find and parking available. A variety of food combos to order with a variety of meat selections. I went the 2 meat combo and grabbed the brisket and ribs. No regrets! (Okay, my only regret is not upgrading to 3 meats for another $1 and adding the pulled pork). But a friend had it so we did a trade so alls well that ends well. Reasonably priced too. Highly recommend.

    Turkey sandwich with loaded baked potato

    First time ordering from this establishment I ordered the turkey sandwich with load baked potato and sandwich were a nice size. Plenty slices of turkey between the buns. I decided to try the ssandwich first as I picked the sandwich up I smelled gasoline. I took a small bite . I decided to try the potato it was decent. Roughly 5 minutes later I didn't feel well. Went to bed to lie down about 1 minute later I popped up and began to throw up. I am going to throw the sandwich away and hopefully be able to eat the potato another day if the Lord spares my life.

    Traveled from Florida to Texas for the first time for a convention but during my stay in Mesquite, I couldn't leave without trying Texan Barbecue. I found out about this restaurant via google search of local Mesquite BBQ restaurants. Never tried Mesquite BBQ so I was really excited! I almost shed a tear when I ate my '1 meat Plate' with macaroni & cheese & potato salad of how delicious it was. I ordered the chicken: it was so tender and good! Everything was super delish! All of it was high quality! The staff were very friendly! The whole experience and food was 10/10!

    Absolutely superb!!! The first bbq we stopped at visiting Texas. I lived in the area when I much younger. Nickolas was great ! He took a few minutes to chat with me about some of the areas that I was trying to remember about my time there . The rest of the staff were all super friendly as well . The food was cooked to perfection ! Fall off of the born ribs, moist chicken and the brisket was so tender. Food had amazing flavor. The price is on point for the amount of that you get. Definitely a must try in the area !!

    Stopped by Mesquite BBQ since it seemed like a crime to be in Mesquite and not try some smoked meats in the area- this spot was everything I was hoping for and more. We got a 2 meat platter with pork ribs and brisket, which came with 2 sides and Texas toast (we chose fried okra and mac & cheese). The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender and so flavorful they didn't need extra sauce! The brisket? Melted in our mouths, with incredibly delicious bark. We liked the fried okra, the mac was just alright, but we weren't there for the sides anyway. You order after lining up and pay at the register, then sit down anywhere. The ladies at the counter were friendly and helpful when we asked for their recommendations- all the desserts are made in-house and they recommended the banana pudding, which was so yummy! The space itself is comfortable and welcoming, and for out-of-towners like myself, a great slice of life in Texas with all the articles and jerseys celebrating the Mesquite Skeeters, the local high school football team- it felt very Friday Night Lights. The walls are full of "Best Of" and "Reader's Choice" awards, and it's easy to see why from how wonderful the food is and the atmosphere overall. Loved my first experience there and wouldn't hesitate to come back or to recommend it to others in the area!

    What an absolute hidden gem in Mesquite!!! Mesquite isn't known to have the best dining options and…read morethe location is easy to dismiss as being good quality, but oh how wrong we have been! Seriously. 1) the service is top tier, super friendly AND it's all family operated 2) the meats were seasoned to perfection and you can tell immediately when you taste it that it was all marinated well and cooked with lots of love! They customize the meat to your liking in terms of cooking preferences without any commentary about the way YOU like your meat. This was big for me as a well-done only eater with texture preferences and not being patronized with sassy comments for my personal tastes when I'm paying for it. My partner likes his quite the opposite, more traditionally prepared, and they HAPPILY accommodated both of our preferences! We had picanha, ribeye, sirloin, garlic steak (forgot the cut), lamb and of course grilled pineapple. There were chicken and pork offerings too that we were too full to try. I didn't get lamb at first until my partner tried it and raved about it being sooo good. So I gave in and tried it and it was so bright with flavor like fresh lemon and herbs and was tender with no gamey aftertaste! It is indeed the best lamb we have ever tried to date. Please don't forget the chimichurri sauce from the salad bar to pair with your meats! It's so fresh and flavorful, perfect to set off the grilled charred meats. They give each of you a card for you to signal to the servers if you have the green side face up that you are ready for more, or flip it to red side face up to signal you are passing on being served more for the time being. 3) the salad bar at first glance looks small but it is mighty, packed with yummy options. I had potato salad, fresh beets, marinated cucumbers, olives, candied bacon. My partner had Cesar salad, tomato soup went nicely with the cheesy bread, and other things I cannot recall. There were more selections available that we didn't have room to try, but looked equally delicious and fresh. 4) they do serve wine and dranks if you imbibe. 5) they have done well with the ambiance and interior decor for the space that it is. I don't remember which day it is, but they also have live music there one day a week. 6) we paid $40/person all you can eat during dinner service. They offer lunch service M-F as well for $25/person - great deal! 7) we went the day after my partner's birthday and our waiter brought him a huge slice of cheesecake with Happy Birthday written on the plate - on the house! 8) please note they are closed on Mondays 9) they also offer catering services 10) this was the best Brazilian steakhouse experience that I have ever had personally, my partner agrees and we will definitely be back soon!! Please go support this fine family run restaurant that serves so much love in their craft!

    Excellent local spot's take on the Brazilian steakhouse concept: like Fogo or Texas de Brazil…read morethey'll have a rotating server staff coming by to slice off delicious food for you. Ambiance: They would benefit from new pictures because the restaurant is actually much prettier than these pictures suggest - dim lighting, wine bottles cleverly used as decorations, etc. of course the space isn't that big and I had to sneak past people a couple times while waiters were slicing off meat, but then again you have the same experience at Fogo, which is typically a much bigger location with much more seating. So no points knocked there. On the whole the food is actually much tastier than Fogo, which we were able to compare/contrast nicely since we went there just the week prior. The garlic sirloin was overwhelmingly our most popular choice as well as the choice of the two tables nearby us. Don't sleep on the chicken however, and the grilled pineapple with sugar is super tasty as well. Salad bar equivalent was much smaller than Fogo's, but it's actually better. Not like that matters anyway, since the meat is the main attraction. Service was superb. We came in on a busy New Year's Eve with a reservation, and were able to be seated promptly. Staff was all super nice and friendly. You won't ever worry about the servers not attending to you, and one younger server was particularly diligent with our water refills. Thanks! Finally, value. The price is much better than Fogo's, and you're getting an overall better experience in exchange. You can bet that I left a nice tip! Overall an amazing, relatively lucky find. We will definitely be back and hope they enjoy great business for years to come. Thanks for giving us a special new local stop.
