    Employee hair on the meat
    Ian G.

    Avoid this hillbilly dump place at all costs, employees are not friendly and they will prepare your food with no hairnets and you will receive a tasty hair strain in your food! Still in the midsts of doing credit card chargeback for this!

    Meh....

    We read an article about this place being good. It was not, not even close. No flavor, no hairnets, and not great service. The only uplifting thing was watching the seniors dance to polka and drinking of all things, Messina Hof wines.

    Ribs with Mac and cheese
    Rob F.

    Just moved my kid into Blinn-- was recommend by his roommate to check out Nathan's. It's not bad-- it's passable bbq, especially the chicken ribs and sides. Brisket was another story, dry and really chewy. Chicken and ribs had great smoke on them and tasted good. Two plates ran around 43 with drinks, it's pricey but all things bbq are pricey now. If we are back at Blinn I would be ok with coming back here-- connected to shell station so this ironically fits the version of Texas bbq. Texans this isn't franklins or la barbecue, for familiarity I'd say similar to Rudy's except for the brisket. Nice place to sit inside and has Pepsi product for fountain drinks. Other reviews mentioned bad service, I had nothing of the sort quite the opposite, pit guys were friendly and patient with my son who has autism.

    It's connected to a convenience store.

    OMG! This is true BBQ! It's been soo hard finding actual good bbq in Texas to say Texas supposed to be known for BBQ! And of course I'm big on customer service, the lady that took my order was phenomenal. Didn't take long either to get my order.

    My god the brisket is awful. Tough, no bark and no flavor and they want $25 a pound. Save your money and find a better place to eat.

    OK first time to try this H-E-B barbecue here in Brenham from what I understand they've had several…read moresetbacks and they were scheduled to open in October 2023 but due to a fire and other issues they opened approximately four days ago. My first impression was yes this is a good thing. To place an order, you must approach a tent covered kiosk and type in your order with your phone number and they will text you when your order is ready that's the simple part...... the hard part is actually getting the order that you placed . A customer in front of me ordered several sandwiches only to find out that some of her items were not placed in her bag, and they actually recalled her order, and they had to simply reassemble the order altogether; that was rather depressing, but I thought, simply by ordering three items they could not mess up my order.....Not so fast. I simply ordered a rack of ribs, 1 pound of sliced turkey and a single individual order of collard greens.. when I got home, I realized that they did not include the collard greens. Wow technically 1/3 of my order was missing altogether. As for the quality of the food that I actually received, the ribs were quite large and flavorful although I thought the smoky flavor was a bit much but the turkey was absolutely fabulous. I could cut it with a fork. . They do include sauce and other condiments, but they're spicy sauce was way too spicy for any of us to consume, and their sweet sauce must've been made with an overabundance of molasses because we threw those sauce packets away. So the spicy sauce must've been prepared in the house because you had to dip it into a container while you waited for the food to be prepared but the sweet sauce was in a pre-packaged container and yet there was no indication of any ingredients, even though it was obviously Prepared by an off site vendor(probably H-E-B out of San Antonio) . I suggest having a bottle of "Head" sweet barbecue sauce, handy to enhance the meal. Although they did offer pickles and onions with the order, there was barely enough to simply cover two slices of bread. I spent over $60 for this meal, and to get such a lame amount of condiments is unacceptable. They at least should have asked me how many portions of pre-bagged, onions, and pickles That I would like to have included with my order. I will give them another try because I have yet to sample their brisket and other highly anticipated items on their menu ..........

    It was in the H‑E‑B store. Sure food is good. But not my idea of a restaurant…read more Can't comment on service or ambiance. It was a grocery store!

    Great homie/saloon feeling w/ good music. The service was quick and very attentive. One aspect that…read moreneeds work is the food. I have never come across a restaurant that had the most bland food. I seriously think they forgot to add in spices. My chicken tortilla soup was so sad and bland I put a ton of salt and pepper. Just to season the soup. The kids meal was Macc and cheese which was "Kraft Mac and cheese , and the grilled shrimp was just grilled without season. Overall, the food needs a lot of work.

    Let me preface this by saying that I went into BT Longhorn to get a steak, and didn't end up…read moreordering a steak, so if there are good reviews on the steak that is served here, please refer to them if you want to know more about the steak. The ambience was about right for what they were going for, with a saloon-like feel. The staff were generally friendly. The music and TVs weren't too loud. Not bad there. Now... I ordered the Seafood Fettuccine, which had shrimp, crawfish and andouille sausage in a seafood type sauce. Kind of a cross between fettuccine alfredo and pastalaya, if you get my drift. The seafood, pasta and sausage were all cooked generally fine. What surprised me was how bland the dish was. The whole dish generally needed salt, (which I applied, and it did help) and it was screaming for some personality, in the form of Cajun seasoning, Louisiana hot sauce, or probably both. I guess if any cream was added to the sauce, it really diluted the flavor. The garlic bread that they served with it did the best it could to help. Keep in mind, I'm paying $30.58 for this project and a glass of sweet tea. On top of that, my debit card gets charged for another table by mistake. My waitress did apologize and reversed the payment, so that I would keep the money. I mean...it was good enough to get me to eat here the first time. But I'd be hard-pressed if it convinced me to eat here a second time, even if for a steak. With food prices getting higher and higher these days, I have to get pretty choosy about where I go for restaurants. This one...IDK.
