Wow. Really good. Those rolls should be specifically forbidden by Weight Watchers... white rolls dripping with butter, hot, fluffy, oh, yum! Good food - quick. Not the best if you're trying to lose weight. Otherwise, really good. read more

We always get our food to go; the man who works the to go counter is one of the reasons we keep going back! What a nice friendly man; always greets you with a smile and is super helpful. The foods pretty good too! read more

As BBQ goes, it's passable. Meat is a tad too dry and not smoky enough for my taste. Sides tend to be overcooked ("geriatric veggies", don't ya know). When fresh, bread is divine. Staff is friendly, but there is an occasional sullen teen... Atmosphere is country barbecue. Grab a tray, fill it up, and sit in the dining room where you want. Despite the above, it's close enough and passable, so it's my "I really don't want to cook, and I don't want to drive far" BBQ joint. read more

I would have to agree with Emily C. the rolls were the best part of the meal! There are very few places that serve rolls like this and the fact that their employees were continually offering more of these delicious rolls was enough that I would return for more at a later date. The barbeque was good. In my opinion, rating it as excellent barbeque would be going a bit overboard. The staff at the restaurant were all very friendly. There was a school PTA meeting occurring the night we were there. The staff did a terrific job of keeping the lines moving and directing people to available seating. While you could go back for additional sides, none of the sides I tasted were worth going back to eat again. They really need to do something about the mac and cheese side. I have had better mac and cheese from a box. Overall the dining experience was pleasant. read more

Had not been here for a while and on a busy day decided to call for to go order and eat at home. Took 15 min to arrive after placing order and walked in with people who were served food long before my order was ready, guess it's not faster to order ahead. Complained to staff and got no apology, just that it was being worked on, it was one plate and one sandwich. I see comments of rude staff and unkempt place, I agree and will not be back. Many great places to get much better quality of food are available and we both immediately said, lets stick with RHB. Sadly this used to be a good restaurant but it has not kept up over the years with the competition and realized as we ate that it was very basic and nothing memorable, especially if they don't care about the customer. read more

We have several great BBQ restaurants close to our house, but we drive a little farther to Spring Creek because I love the brisket. It is never dry and I love that I can choose marble or lean. The seasoning is so perfect that I rarely use the sauce, even tho it is tasty also. The ribs are tender and the sausage is perfectly seasoned. They have the BEST fried okra in town. The homemade rolls are always hot and fresh. We've tried many of the sides and haven't found one we didn't like. The staff is always very polite and helpful. We often order to-go but eat in also. The one time we had a problem with our to-go order, the manager made it up to us and then some! read more

We got "to go" and they did so awesome! They made sure all of our food came out properly and they did it very quickly. I definitely recommend coming to the Spring Creek barbecue because it is so great! read more

My husband and I visited the Katy, Tx. location on Westgreen and Katy Freeway after a referral through Facebook by a Business Associate of mines. Even through a pandemic and now snow storm in Texas, the Staff at Spring Creek Barbeque offered us exceptional 5 STAR service!! Customer Service does stand out, especially the Phenomenal Service we received from all the Team Players from the back to the front of Spring Creek Barbeque! Great Job! Thank you! read more

Just OK. It's nothing you couldn't get at any number of the BBQ places in the area. Be prepared to shower when you get home unless you enjoy going to bed smelling like a BBQ pit, the smoke is heavy in the air here. Part of the charm? Your call. read more

Spring Creek Barbeque - Beef dinner with Mac - Barbeque Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Not the first time I have been disappointed by SC, but it will be the last. Had the baby back ribs and can honestly say they were the worst I have ever had. I was a bit skeptical when the guy had to go to the back to get them then throw them on the grill for like 10 seconds. Something was wrong with these ribs. I ate as many as I could, left more then half at the table. Even dipped in BBQ sauce they were still disgusting. read more

my mom and i went today for an early supper i walked in and the smell was awesome! walked up looked at menu and said wow they went wayyy up. i ordered 3 meat brisket and smoked chicken well i assu.e the thigh and a leg were the two meat and some very thinned sliced brisket you could see through. the vegetables were mac and cheese beans and corn on the cob that looked soggy .i wanted okra that wasn't a choice for my two sides i was charged almost 6 bucks for okra! really! the chicken was dry the lil leg i literally had two small bites of the mac and cheese was dry! i traded for the beans that were nasty the brisket i could see through 1 pc of offered bread no salads or desserts os advertised i paid 42 bucks for crap! c.r.a.p! i drove from terrell to richarson for this bbq nope never again! i was so disappointed and digusted when i left ir is now 9pm i am still sick i hardly ate any of it but yet im sick wth! i will go to any other bbq place instead of this crap in the hole! take my advice go somewhere else unless you lime dried out food and bad service! read more

Amazing customer service. The cashier Alexandra did a really good job at explaining the menu and prices to us since it was our first time ordering here. The ribs were fantastic and the sauce was even better. The sides were okay. We will be coming back! read more

The fact that everyone mentions the sides and bread over BBQ should be a huge red flag. This place was fine back in the days of 1980s BBQ amnesia. This place is probably a favorite of Rick "The most important thing about barbecue is sauce" Perry. Ever since real BBQ joints honoring the traditions of the German/Czech Texas hill country moved in such as, Lockhart, Pecan Lodge, Cattlelack, Heim, Hutchins, Slow Bone, and a slew of other places that actually know how to get a proper smoke ring on brisket there's no excuse for such poor 'cue. The triple triad of terrible BBQ in my mind is Spring Creek, Colter's, and Dickeys. Time to retire guys. read more

I'm n Houston visitin my daughter. We decided to go for bbq at this place. This is the worst bbq I've tasted. The food was priced too high for wat u get. The ribs were so hard u couldn't Chew or even break it. The sausage tasted like fat other than that no flavor at all. Note that neither tasted or smelled smoked like they claim the food is. The Mac n Cheese was not homemade. It was kraft Mac n cheese! The rolls were ok - until they got cold. Overall I will NOT return. Too many decent places to eat in Houston area. Don't waste ur time or money! read more

This place is extremely unsanitary, the customer service sucks. My sister had a weird stain on her cup and my mom found a spider in the bag with her salad. Don't go here if you like cleanliness. At ALL! read more

I used to love Spring Creek, unfortunately they increased their prices considerably and they significantly decreased the quantity of meat they serve per plate. I was there yesterday and I could not believe how small was the portion I was served!!! $18 for 3 slices of brisket and three small ribs seems excessive. read more

Our first time at this location and was very disappointed! First they over cooked my okra. Then they threw the baked rolls in the garbage right in front of us without even asking if we wanted any. When we asked for a hot roll they said sorry we threw them all away. When we mentioned this to the manager he acted like he didn't even care just said sorry hope you comeback to see us. When we left the restaurant he did not even say anything about apologizing for our disappointing first visit. We won't be back!!! read more

This place better get some adult supervision!! Easy order, 1/2 ribs and 1/2 sausage. After waiting 20 minutes for my order I asked what was the hold up. Now, I am the only customer in the store, young adults just having a good time chit chatting. Got my order. No BBQ sauce and the rolls looked like someone had crushed them!! Also, no babyback ribs again and it was just 5:20 pm!! Next time, if there is one, I will check to see if they have an adult and I will have them show me my entire order, cuz it ain't cheap. read more

By far the worst service I have ever seen from Spring Creek BBQ, definitely would never come back to this location again. Was never offered rolls had to go twice to talk the roll girls and was totally ignored finally went to the front and ask the BBQ cutters for a roll and he told me he had one left. Then ask for ice cream and they told me no but they had just given the table next to me free ice cream. The brisket was so rubbery that I couldn't chew it . Just straight terrible. The funny thing about it a group of "managers" were sitting at a table having lunch and the totally ignored how bad a service the employees were giving the customers. STAY AWAY read more

Horrible barbecue, horrible service, and horrible service line. The service line was nasty looking. All the sides tasted horrible. Bread person had an attitude when she gave 2 pieces of bread, for a table of 3, and requested more more bread. read more

The service is SO friendly and the staff is so helpful. Great place to bring the family. The bread is in such high demand they sometimes can't keep up but worth the wait. They akways try to make sure you get enough! read more

It's was okay... probably wouldn't rush back. Good coleslaw... Mac and cheese was god awful. Friendly service, good bbq brisket. read more

See all

Cant beat this rib dinner!!! Great food and always consistent! The fresh bread is my kryptonite - with some butter - mmmmmm!!! Been coming here for years and its always the same sauce my ribs, tater salad, mac n cheese and hot fresh bread!! read more

My husband and I bought the rib plate the first time, and they shorted my plate because I'm female. They also ignored my request to not put their gunky sauce on the meat. The sides are obviously canned. The next visit I chose a salad, specifying that I had a food allergy to bell peppers and raw onions. They gave me what must have been double of those items. For a meal costing $15 plus tea, I can only say I never want to put up with their garbage; it's like bots serving you; I prefer humans. BTW, bring a sweater; it'll help you from freezing before you bring your food home to heat up. I've done much better than this on my dollar, even with their coupon. read more

I placed a take out order for my relatives from Hillsboro, Texas. My brother enlai used Waze app to find the restaurant however when he returned with the food or three dinner orders we only had one roll a piece one roll per dinner I called the restaurant and was told that is the takeout policy if you pick up a dinner you only get one roll I asked the manager why is that when if I sat there I could eat 30 rolls if I wanted to he swore to me that was the takeout policy so I would like someone to confirm from your corporate office that that is in fact the takeout policy I didn't think it was fair I don't think the manager Adam who would not provide his last name I just wasn't happy with the lack of customer care that he showed when I called him about this issue to this date I am waiting for someone from corporate to call me to confirm that that is in fact your firm in place company policy read more

Would give 0 stars if I could! There was a roach in one of our drinks!! Absolutely disgusting! I called to complain about it and the kid who answered was incredibly rude and did not seem to care that there are literally roaches in the drinks and probably the food! DO NOT GO HERE!! Much better and cleaner places to get barbecue!! read more

No matter how good a place is, the single most important thing is "cooked food". I had the chicken lunch and as usual gobbled down my food but this time around after I have eaten, I noticed blood straight up blood on the left over bones. Thought nothing of it until later that night, I started a fever and wiped me out for 2 days. I been going to this Spring Creek for a while now. Might not order the chicken if I would go back. read more

We have been to most BBQ places in the Richardson area (a lot in Dallas, Plano, and Ft Worth too), and Spring Creek is the best. From the Brisket, ribs and turkey to the potato salad, beans, and condiments... and the fresh, hot (right out of the oven) mini-bread loaves. The food is aces. The staff and management are usually smiling and make an effort to be friendly. Oh! Almost forgot the fresh fried okra... be sure to order it right away, as you are ordering your meat; it takes a few minutes to get it to your table (hey... it's fried to order); you can even get it fried extra long for extra crispy, just like I like it... "Texas Popcorn" style. And the baked potatoes; alllll the way are pretty special too. They do have fresh baked peach cobbler with ice cream that is also awesome, but with free refills on all the sides I never seem to have room left to put it. read more

Went to this location and saw a cockroach as I walked in should have turn around and left told the manager he did apologize still ordered my food but def had lost my appetite... didn't eat it and felt nauseous afterwards... ugh will go to a diff location or dickeys it is... read more

Excellent Texas style BBQ. Highly recommend the chopped baked potato and a side of okra.

I grew up eating Spring Creek BBQ at other locations. My parents would take us there for family celebrations because nobody makes better hot fresh rolls. I've been to this location a couple of times, and the service has never been spectacular, but the food it good so I ignore it. However, this time our experience was HORRIBLE. Upon entering and getting to the start line there was no acknowledgement that we were waiting to order, I take it because the kid (who had to be no older than 18) cutting our meat was obviously new. This became more obvious because he didn't know how to trim the fat off the meat before chopping beef. By the time the manager came over to correct him (which the kid didn't seem too happy about) - he had already done my wife's plate, so her chopped beef was 20% fat. Then he dropped my plate while taking it off the scale, and proceeded to fill the plate back up with the leftover meat scraps. Moving on to the sides - the next kid (again, below 18 years old) stared at us blankly when we asked questions about how many sides we got. He then turned and began talking about basketball to his co-worker. Another manager (who was not much older) was walking by and saw the interaction and finally answered our question. Finally, when we got to the beverage station, the cashier (guess what age) saw my wife pour out the sweet tea because it wasn't sweet. She mentioned that someone probably forgot to add the sweetener to it, & called the manager over to change it out - who seemed annoyed. We checked out and got back to the table only to find that our food was cold. Not lukewarm, COLD. I went to go mention it to the manger, but saw how long the guy in front of me had to wait to speak to a manager and then how poorly his complaint about the beef was dealt with - and decided to write a review instead. I tend to give kudos when I have an amazing experience, but in this case I had to leave a review about the horrific experience in hopes that it will be corrected for future customers. I understand having a staff of young kids saves money, but they need to be adequately trained and managed to provide a better customer experience. read more

I would give the food 3 stars but it was Sunday night with BOGO on meals. 2 meats and 2 sides along with another meal of 3 meats and 2 sides all for less than $16. Wow, definitely can't beat that price! read more

Came in for the first time to place a to-go order. Young man provided the most outstanding customer service I have yet experienced in a restaurant. Cheerful and very polite, he made suggestions and had my order ready in less than 5 mins. Unfortunately, there was nowhere to add a tip on my tab so I promised him a mad shout-out instead...thank you thin, tall strawberry-blonde-headed young man. You rock!!! read more

D and I are trying to be thrifty using our handy dandy pass book and all. So, we both decided on Spring Creek BBQ. D got the beef and I got the turkey. We got meat, unlimited veggies, and all the hot fresh rolls you can eat. Service is very casual. Walk through a line, serve yourself, sit yourself, and the rolls come to you in the form of a high school girl with a basket screaming out "Hot rolls!" Sauce was what made the mediocre BBQ better. It was tangy and not at all ketchupy. I liked the green beans and corn. It was fresh and tasty. Potato salad was a little too sour for me and the mac and cheese tasted like the frozen variety...which I'm sure it was. My roll however? Delicious and again, unlimited! The other bad part was that D and I did not get to use our coupon because we neglected to read the fine print again. Grrrrr. Definitely not worth the $20 we paid- with the coupon, I'd have bumped 'em up a star. Dang you, fine print! Maybe next time we're in the mood for some quick BBQ, we'll come here and try the peach cobbler with Blue Bell vanilla ice cream on top. Um, yum? read more

I went there with my wife and 2 kids. My wife and I ordered a rib dinner and 1 kid ordered a kids chicken plate and the other one didn't want anything. The ribs were very dry and hard to bite into and one plate had more ribs than the other. We were eating and no rolls were going around and I went to the counter to ask for rolls. The guy said they will come around because the rolls were not ready. Finally, he was going around and gave one family of 3, 2 rolls each and by the time he got to my table he ran out of rolls. By then, we were almost done with the dinner and finally one young lady was going around slowly giving rolls to the table that already got 2 rolls earlier. We finally got 1 roll for my wife, 1 daughter, and I. We were almost done with the dinner by the time we got our first rolls. We wasted $33.20 for 2 rib dinners and 1 kids chicken plate with 2 drinks. I don't think we will go back again. read more

I have to say that this is the best barbeque in Dallas. The sauce is delicious. The fresh bread is the best. I always get a loaded baked potato instead of the sides. It's too bad the meat could be smoked more tenderly, but it is what it is. read more

Twice now I have left very disappointed, I have no complaints about the place or the food, just the lack of food they give you for 13 bucks. I've twice walked out of this place still hungry, no matter how many hot rolls I'm being given, Spring Creek would definitely be a 4 star establishment, if they would just slice a few extra pieces of meat onto the plate, but I'm not going back a third time to see, there are plenty other places that will fill a tummy for 13 bucks. read more

Disappointed that you all offer a coupon that goes through Dec 24, coupon can't be used until 5 pm. We get off work, get there at 5 only to find out that you all closed at 5 that day. Why have a coupon for that day that can't be used?? read more

Had the BBQ plate here and the briscuit was delicious . I really liked the sauce and also liked the unlimited sides and bread as well. It was a lot of food for a decent price and the food was great! read more

Spring Creek BBQ is one of my favorite barbecue places in Dallas. My family always goes here with their coupons, which is BOGO. Their sweet BBQ sauce is amazing (I actually prefer it to Rudy's sauce), and goes really well with all their meats. My favorites are their turkey and their famous ribs! All their sides are self-serve so you can help yourself to some corn, cole saw, beans, green beans, potato salad, or some amazing mac n cheese. Sometimes, depending on the season, their corn is a hit or miss thiugh, so beware of that. The BOGO coupons only work from Monday-Thursday, and Sunday after 5pm!! read more
