I've never been to a Buc-ee's, but my family and friends have ranted and raved about the jumbo beaver-inspired travel centers for several years. With that being said, I immediately made a strong correlation between Buc-ee's and The Texan. After a long swim in the hotel pool, my daughters and I reviewed the dinner offerings in the sleepy town. I suggested we just go check out The Texan and at least restock on fluids and snacks for our upcoming beach trip. As soon as we walked in, we all gravitated to the grab-n-go section. Cold items included salads, sandwiches, fruit and veggie cups, boiled eggs, pies, and other desserts. Then we drifted towards the hot items: pizza, tacos, burgers, and other plates, but I was curious about the BBQ sliced brisket sandwich ($9.99). It was so good! Not soggy. Loads of brisket! They also had donuts, kolaches, and muffins in another display. Here's the rest of our supper menu: + sweet tea drinks (medium) = $1.69 + sweet tea (large) = $1.79 + Nutty Bavarian dessert in a cup = $4.49 + 3-piece cake balls cup = $6.99 + grilled chicken sandwich = $8.99 + 5-pc jalapeno poppers = $5.99 + a large meat lover's pizza slice = $3.99 + pecans Great service. Restrooms, a beer cave, wine selections, souvenirs, indoor dining area, and gas/diesel pumps also available. Big rigs have their own area. The only bummer was they sold out of these really cool dog stickers with the Texas flag.

The food options were plentiful but the chopped beef sandwich and fries that I got were a bit disappointing; the fries were once crispy some hours ago but became a soggy lump of sadness once trapped in its plastic container in a hot box. The buns in the sandwich were also smushed/soggy beyond repair with moisture and residual pickle juice; the disadvantages of lower food turnover definitely affects the freshness of the product a bit. They still have a good selection of chips, drinks, and merch so it's a step above the usual run of the mill stop.

She even wanted to ensure that I sampled some of the fudged before committing. So kind! And not to mention she read the ingredients of the fudges and truffles to me so I could ensure I wouldn't get any I was allergic to. Extra mile points. The ice cream is Bluebell and the variety of flavors they have are GREAT! You can simply check the Bluebell site for which ones are gluten free which I did. We're heading back over from Port A, yes that's how great the service is in comparison to places on the island, to come here again.

Pulling up into the parking lot, we got extremely lucky and saw a few people walking out; otherwise this little parking lot is completely full. The shop itself is also pretty small, basically a hallway down the entire unit, with a bar on the left and a row of small tables on the right. There is some outdoor seating available as well. We ordered lunch to-go, which was pretty quick and easy, as our order was already prepared when I arrived and I was able to use Apple Pay. I noticed their packaging was very nice. We ordered the Philly Cheese w/ pasta salad, the Teriyaki Salmon w/ mac 'n cheese, and also Ahi Tuna sandwich w/ the soup of the day, being broccoli and cheese. My Philly Cheese was tasty, but on the salty side. My bride absolutely loved her Ahi Tuna and the kiddos enjoyed their Teriyaki Salmon. Overall, the food was excellent (but it is pretty pricey). We definitely recommend this spot in you are in the area.

Once we found out where and how to get our food, my goodness, my pork BBQ sandwich is probably the best I've ever had. The pork itself was very tender and excellent when it came to thickness, which was the perfect amount; not too thick, not too thin. However the real star of the show was the bread. It was wanting to stick to the paper because it just couldn't wait for me to devour it. The softness and texture was next level. I have no idea what the hell kind of bread it is, but I need to know just about now. I would definitely come back if I lived here.

This cannot be beat. Get the American cheddar (and extra if you love cheese). Get extra red sauce (jalapeno salsa or something). I like my cheesesteak with mushrooms and jalapeños. This is definitely big enough to share unless you have a beast for a husband. Get 2 and put 1/2 in fridge for tomorrow. It gets a tad soggy, but it's almost even better the next day. The bread here is amazing. The staff is super rad. The location and vibe is spot on. Do not miss this secret spot.

Unpopular opinion incoming: I'm not overly impressed. A good sandwich is one of my favorite things,…read moreso this joint's been on my radar for a while. So, when co-workers wanted to go yesterday, I jumped on it. Don't get me wrong. I love the vibe of this place. I LOVE their story. It's very NY/Northeastern deli feel (they're from Pittsburgh, but you get my drift, right!?). No nonsense. Small inside area. No tables inside. Just enough room to look at the menu, order, and go wait outside. I opted for the chicken bacon ranch on hoagie. What came out was a decent size sandwich, but incredibly messy and soggy. There was so much juice/ liquid the sandwich quickly became unmanageable and just disintegrated. Look, if you're going to serve a sandwich that messy, please upgrade your napkins. It was a one bite - two napkin ratio. The sandwich was good, but the mess and difficulty eating it just took away any enjoyment. Additionally, the flies outside rivaled the worst I've experienced. Do you remember the scene in the Lost World, Jurassic Park movie when the hunters found the Rex nest!? Okay, okay, maybe not that bad, but it was a lot. Hang some fly bags or strips or somethin'. Found price to be a little high. By the time I bought chips and a drink, plus tip: $22. Just FYI: my co-worker disagrees. He thought it was the BEST SANDWICH HE'D EVER HAD. So, yes, go give them a try, but bring a beach towel for clean up.

Once the food arrived, I understood why. The entire sandwich was MAYBE 3 inches long and they only filled it w enough chicken salad to fit the bread. And these were nearly $10 sandwiches! I wish I'd gotten a picture but was so shocked they would present this to us as an acceptable portion I immediately went back and requested additional side of chicken salad that equated to the normal portion. I could never have consciously served someone that size food for what they paid. On the other hand, the food was good and the creamy jalapeño soup was TO DIE FOR! Just hope they can figure out a solution to the portions. Especially if you're going to charge extra for GF bread.
