Mimsy's serves up some impressive barbecue in a fantastic setting. From the moment we walked in,…read morethe staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The venue itself is great, with a nicely decorated space that offers both inside and outside seating, along with a kids' play area--a huge plus for families. Now, on to the food. The brisket was a definite standout. It had a wonderful, rich flavor, and the salt and pepper (SP) bark was spot-on, providing a perfect crust. A nice, prominent smoke ring and a healthy amount of rendered fat made for a tender and juicy bite. The ribs were also solid. They had a great pull from the bone, but I noticed a slightly overpowering "hammy" flavor that detracted a bit from the classic barbecue taste I was hoping for. The house-made birria sausage was a fantastic surprise. It had a delicious mix of pork and beef, complemented by melted cheese and a good kick of chili. The casing had a satisfying snap, which I appreciate. For sides, the Maple Sprouts were exceptional. They were perfectly charred and crispy, with the maple flavor coming through beautifully without being too sweet. The jambalaya was also a strong contender. It was loaded with flavorful sausage bits, and the rice was cooked just right. After all that, we were happy to see they also offer some nice desserts to round out the meal. Overall, I had a great meal at Mimsy's. The brisket and unique house sausage are must-tries, and the Maple Sprouts are a delicious side that stands on its own. While the ribs were a little off for my personal taste, the rest of the meal and the friendly atmosphere more than made up for it. I'd definitely go back for more.

We visited on a Tuesday right when it opened, and it was already filling up with happy patrons. The ample parking and friendly staff made for a great start to the meal. The Meats The brisket had a delicious salt and pepper bark with a nice crust. While it could have been a bit more moist, the rich, smoky flavor was on point and a great representation of a classic Texas brisket. The ribs were a definite standout. They had a beautiful, deep smoke ring and came clean off the bone with a perfect pull, not just falling apart. The dry rub bark was fantastic, allowing the natural smoky flavor of the meat to shine. Both of the sausages were excellent. The house sausage was juicy with a satisfying snap to the casing and a nice peppery kick. The boudin sausage packed a great spicy flavor without being overly filled, which can often make boudin greasy. The Sides & Appetizers We also tried a couple of the unique sides and appetizers. The jalapeño poppers were a pleasant surprise. I usually prefer a protein filling, but the cream cheese had a wonderfully flavorful and creamy texture that won me over. The jalapeño crème corn was another highlight--incredibly creamy with a tangy, spicy kick from the pickled jalapeños mixed throughout. Overall, this barbecue joint is a must-visit. The quality of the meat and the delicious sides truly set it apart.

I had their brisket and pork ribs with double side of beans because I don't like cole slaw or potato salad (I know I know) Customer Service is great!!!! Food Review: brisket is okay good taste but not as tender as it should be and doesn't have crust. He smokes with oak wood which is good for indigestion! Pinto beans are tasty and Higgs recommend. Since bbq is my wheelhouse I'm a hard critic let me start off. I am a firm believer in the great state of Texas of "Low and Slow" he rushes his meat and there is no caramelization. I like to be able to take a semi bite of brisket without using my whole bite to tear off brisket from the slice that was cut. The positive is that(I believe he uses) meat from his ranch in Livingston. It hits different I would recommend this place and I want to come back to try the taqueria side to this place.

There isn't an extensive list on the menu that will have you scratching your head on what to order. This is a quaint spot that has eating staples from salad to fried stuff. The good: The staff here is very friendly and very welcoming. The bad: I'm not a true fan of the price to portion ratio. Food pricing is increasing at a rapid rate, I truly understand that. I was not expecting a Flintstones moment where my vehicle would receive the food, which in turn, would make my vehicle flip on its side. I have to be honest...they serve you on a traditional compartment plate. I'm not even certain that two scoops of a side can fit in those compartments. I truly do not feel as though you receive enough food for the money. The ugly: You will not be taken to flavor town eating here. Do not get me wrong, they do put spices on their meats, but the meat wasn't flavored. My New Orleans' tongue did not have an awakening of any sorts eating here. Was the food palletable? Very much so. That's where it ends FOR ME. I didn't taste anything that knocked my socks off. I had a clue it would be that way when they asked what spice level boudin I wanted. Once again, spices for taste versus seasoning for the wow factor. All in all, boudin was decent. Okra was fried decent but didn't have flavor. Ribs were tender and the best meat. The sliced brisket was well done, but without a flavor pop. The baked beans were really done well. The coleslaw was tasty as well. The turtle slice of pie, with whipped cream, was a nice dessert, but too small of a portion. Would I eat here again? Yes I would now that I know what to expect.
