Wow wow wow! If you've been looking for some good BBQ, this is where you need to go…read more We tried a sausage link, turkey breast, lean brisket, beans, macaroni and cheese, and banana pudding. The brisket just melts in your mouth. It's so flavorful and tender. (I'm already craving it just from talking about it) The turkey was perfectly moist and delicious. I'm not a big sausage fan but theirs is really good. No gristle at all! That banana pudding is soooo good. The beans and macaroni are OK. They aren't bad but the BBQ is what really shines here. Their spicy pickles are really great and they sell them by the jar. Service is quick and friendly. Great people here. It's a small building on highway 6 in Manvel that is only open on the weekends. There is a small indoor dining area, picnic tables outside, and a drive thru. Give it a try! I think you'll love it too. Now if they only sold pulled pork....

Our mashed potatoes were cold as well, which is NOT food safe. The brisket was cut the wrong direction as well which affected the texture. In the 30 minutes we were sitting down (3:30-4:00pm on Sunday) not a single table was bussed. 13 tables full of garbage, and only a few additional tables actually had folks sitting and dining. Finally started attending tables by the time we left, but used the same nasty wet rag on all of them, including the seats. Not a sanitizer bottle in sight. Absolutely disgusting.

Killen's never disappoints…read more Their beef ribs were just short of amazing. Juicy, succulent, tender. For a giant piece of meat on the bone, they worked wonders. You can ask to see the piece of rib before they cut it for you and they will happily oblige (patrons behind you might not be so thrilled with that move, but they'll live). Sides were excellent as were the mashed potatoes with white gravy on the side, green beans that were just tender enough, but also a bit crunchy. Perfect. They were seasoned with pork, so if that's not your thing, you might want to skip it. We also ordered their shareable onion rings, easily enough for three people that were huge, hot, and crispy. Let's get this out of the way, some of their prices are a little up there, but if you're anything like me, and don't frequent BBQ places often, it's a rare but enjoyable treat. Sometimes you have to splurge and live a little. Also, they have their regular sauce on tables, but you now have to ask the cashier for their sublime coffee BBQ sauce. Don't be shy, ask. It's worth it. Oh, pro tip: If you want beef ribs, the 'plate' is actually cheaper and a better deal than 'by the pound', so save a little money and get two sides.

I've been here several times, and honestly, about 98% of the time the food is good. That's why this…read morevisit was so disappointing. I arrived around 5:35 PM, about 25 minutes before closing, and ordered 1/2 lb of brisket and 1/2 lb of ribs. The brisket was $17, and unfortunately it was extremely greasy and so overcooked that the meat had become mushy. It still had good flavor, but the texture was nothing like the brisket I've normally gotten here. Judging by what I received, it felt like I may have gotten what was left at the end of the day. The ribs were $12, and my "1/2 lb" consisted of two individual ribs. They tasted good, but they weren't nearly as tender as I've had here before. I paid about $29 just for the meat, and for that price I expected much better quality and portioning. I understand that I came close to closing time, but I still paid full price and should receive the same quality of food as any other customer. If the brisket is past its best or there isn't enough left to make a proper order, I'd rather be told that so I can order something else. I'm not writing the place off because they've been good to me many times before. But this particular order was definitely not up to their usual standard, and the pictures speak for themselves.

Even though The Pit Room is known for its BBQ, I came here strictly for the breakfast tacos…read more I got the Brisket & Egg Taco ($5) and added cheese ($0.50). It was so good and came with a good amount of brisket. I should have added bacon to it too. I also ordered the Pork, Hash & Egg Taco, which was solid, and the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Taco because why not. My favorite was definitely the brisket taco, but I wish I had tried one of the sausage tacos too. When I'm back in Houston, I'm definitely coming back to try them. * 4.5 Stars * Breakfast tacos served from 7am-10:30am

The Pit Room used to be one of my favorite barbecue spots in Houston, which makes this visit…read moreespecially disappointing. After the three-taco dinner, I honestly struggled to reconcile what was on my tray with its Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition. The biggest problem was the one thing a barbecue restaurant needs to get right: the meat. It arrived cold and lacked flavor. The tacos fell apart as I ate them, and nothing about the taste made up for that. I've had considerably better tacos from food trucks. At a place with this reputation, I expected much more. The sides didn't rescue the meal. The cornbread was dry, the mac and cheese was mediocre, and the atmosphere felt lifeless during our visit. The meat should have been the star of the show; instead, it was the biggest letdown. The staff, however, were wonderful--warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. They deserve credit, and the service was easily the best part of the experience. This wasn't an inedible meal. It was an underwhelming one from a restaurant I used to enthusiastically recommend. Two stars reflects this visit, and I hope the kitchen gets back to the standard that made me love this place.

The mashed potato's and gravy were soft and silky! LITERALLY A PERFECT MEAL! Don't sleep on this place! You won't regret it!

Many folks get orders to go, so it's not a fancy dining room, and has picnic-style tables. They put generous helpings on the platter, too. I had brisket, pork ribs, and jalapeno sausage and it was very good. I tend to like it a little smokier, but this was fine. Brisket was tender, ribs fell off of the bone, and sausage was sliced and crispy around the edges. Good sauces at the table as well. And, it's adjacent to a meat market and store. My wife noted that their ground beef was a better price than local big grocery stores. They also have a large frozen cooler with all sorts of goodies including Cajun. We are going back.
