The most amazing chicken and fries you will ever eat anywhere ! I got wisdom teeth surgery not too long ago and was in serious pain , couldn't eat for 2 weeks . All i wanted to do was to come to this place and eat . read more

I came here for the first time after passing by a few times a year. Lot was empty, waited 35 minutes for a $20 pork ribeye. Worst bbq I've had in my 26 years of life. Mashed potatoes tasted like they were made by the Army. I'll never go here again and I would highly suggest passing it by. read more

The first time we visited this place, the food was outstanding. Going back for a second time, we both ordered a half rack of baby back ribs, I asked for a side of mac & cheese and a baked sweet potato. When the food was delivered to our table extraordinarily quickly, we both noticed that our food was cold, as in as cold as being pulled out of the fridge, slathered with a little BBQ sauce and put on a plate. The only thing warm in my order was the baked sweet potato. Their version of "Texas Toast" was toasted white bread, not even Wonder Bread. No flavor to the cold white bread toast. Nothing special to write home about on this visit, which was disappointing, considering it was a Friday, usually one of the busiest times for most restaurants. This place was practically empty when we pulled into the lot. When we brought it to the attention of the staff, the young lady who was our server was busy helping every other table and not looking toward us. I got the attention of the manager and when he came over, I explained that everything (except the baked sweet potato) was cold. He took up both plates, apologized profusely and took the plates into the kitchen. This got the attention of our server and she asked what was wrong. When he explained to her that all of both plates were cold, she finally came over to talk to us and briefly explained they had a new person in the kitchen. I was thinking, if you have a new person in the kitchen, how bad is it when they can't understand that hot food needs to be cooked in order to be considered "hot"? The second plates they brought out were "warmer" than the previous ones but not by much. It was warm enough to eat and it still tasted good, the meat still fell off the bones and it was filling. The "Texas Toast" is NOT Texas Toast, no matter how you define it. In the end, when a restaurant makes a mistake like that, they usually compensate the patrons for their mistake. We were charged full price for our meal, which we paid without a problem, but this was NOT the "A Team" of this restaurant. Don't get me wrong, the food tasted good but the initial presentation wasn't on par with opur previous experience here. We will come back again, hoping they will perform as good as they did the first time we were there. read more

I couldn't find a place on yelp just for twin kiss (ice cream) but love that this place is open even in winter for when you are craving ice cream. Nice staff and quick stop location with a window outside to order or can go in. read more

Texas Ribs & BBQ - Small twist - American Near Me - La Plata, Maryland

My husband's brother and I were driving from DC to Reedville Virginia. He had just arrived from Denver and pretty hungry. So we decided to stop here for dinner. We shared ribs and two sides. They gave us a huge portion of ribs with lots of fries and bread. Ribs were good but not juicy enough for us give them 5 stars. It could have been slightly tender and fall off the bone type with some more flavor. Both of us really liked the hot sauce. Service was good and the ambiance was decent. They also have ice cream stop if you're craving for ice cream. read more

First time trying this place, great service from waitstaff. Super friendly and knowledgeable! We had helpful suggestions on the menu which really helped narrow down our decisions. We started with a fried green beans appetizer which was insanely good. Best part of the meal! It came with ranch dipping sauce, but we loved adding the sauces on the table to it. They offered mild, hot, and sweet BBQ sauces. I suggest the sweet cuz you can really taste the brown sugar. We both took the waitress' suggestion for the beef brisket sandwich on texas toast. Bread was crispy and held up nicely. We added alot to the sandwich including coleslaw and BBQ sauce. After lunch, we ordered ice cream for dessert. This was our second favorite thing we ate! Peanut butter pie with extra Reese pb cup topping, yum! All in all, we would come back for the service and probably for the abundance options if appetizers. Jake n kev read more

I had the baby back ribs, they were superb, I can't imagine them being better. My wife had the sliders, she chose to get all three chicken. I don't know how they fit so much chicken on each one! She only ate one and I got one of her leftovers it was also delicious. The coleslaw and potato salad were on point. We also had the fried pickle spears, obviously made by the restaurant, I couldn't believe we finished the huge portion. I appreciated the BBQ sauce choice not being overwhelming and surprising to me we both went sweet which is not usual. I wish I remembered our waitress's name but she was a patient gem to everyone. Food came to us very timely. Walmart.I thought the price was on the high side but that's true everywhere I guess so at least you get the quality you're paying for. We will stop here every time we're in the area, or I'll throw a raging 3 year old fit. read more

The best brisket I've ever had lean and moist. Great sweet potato fries and collard greens. Great value for the high quality of food. Service was fantastic. read more

Overall food and dessert were amazing! Mac n cheese was a family hit!!! Our waitress was wonderful as well!

Over the years I've eaten at T-ribs many times. Lunch, dinner and often carry-out. I've always liked it. My wife, not so much. Tonight we stopped in on the way home from the airport and ordered carry-out. 25 minutes later, with no one in front of us, In fact no one else in the place, we received our order. We drove home, 10 minutes. Opened our dinners and found a "well done " burger raw as can be. My chicken was soooo dry I thought it was a loaf of stale bread. Major disappointment! I've been disappointed at T-ribs before but never to the point I needed to tell you about it. Our dinner went in the trash. I'll go back someday. But not anytime soon. C'mon guys. Pay for a real cook. read more

Twin Kiss has some great ice cream but lately have been disappointed with getting very runny milk shakes, almost like drinking milk they are so thin. Wish they would be more consistent. read more

I have to knock the rating down a star due to the current state of the wait staff. The quality of the food remains top knotch, 5 star (see previous reviews), but the servers as of late are hit or miss, ranging from 2 star to 4. We continue to stop here for lunch on our monthly trips to VA, but it now is with a little trepidation. read more

This place doesn't hold a candle to Texas Ribs And barbecue in Clinton Maryland. I ordered the ribs that were over cooked and tough and I don't even know what kind of ribs they were cause they look different than a ribs I've ever eaten before my friend had the brisket it was dry and he didn't even finish it and he loves the brisket. The coleslaw was not even close to being as good as the Texas Ribs And Clinton, Maryland, and the french fries came to the table cold. It was a real disappointment and definitely not worth the time or the money. read more

This place is ok but their way way over priced and the ribs are hard as a brick The potato salad is good and the baked beans are good The service is great so far. The ambience is normal for a BBQ place nothing special read more

Service and atmosphere is great. I got brisket and sweet potato fries. As in picture the fries were burnt ( should have never left the kitchen and given to a customer). The brisket was very tough, I had to use a knife to cut. No smoke flavor at all. The ribs were pretty good and the fried pickles were good. read more

Texas Ribs & BBQ - Brisket and seeet potatoe fries - American Near Me - La Plata, Maryland

Same old Texas Ribs. Good food, good service, good value. Menu is identical to the legacy Texas Ribs Clinton and Waldorf

I went here on Mother's Day because my mom wanted ribs and I did not feel like riding to DC. I ordered baby back ribs thinking that they would be meaty and tender. They were neither. Small ribs and they were tough. They tasted like they were cooked in the oven and not on the grill. No smoke taste at all. I was very dissatisfied and my mom was as well. This was a big disappointmen. It was a total waste of money. I should have taken the 40 minute ride to DC. I will never eat here again. read more

You know you should be in trouble when you go to a BBQ joint and everyone is eating and only ordering the ice cream. I should have read the signs but noooo. I wanted some BBQ and had driven all the way out of my way to come to Johnny boys only to find cobwebs and a shuddered building in its place. So I went salivating to Texas Ribs & BBQ hoping that they just moved across the street under a new name. WRONG! The place was clean and service seemed good enough. There was a steady stream of elderly folks walking up and in buying ICE CREAM not BBQ. LOL! SO me being the hungry dummy I was, I ordered a whole family of BBQ. That took FOREVER to make and I am still not sure why. About 30 mins later I get my food. I had a long drive back home so I sampled one of the ribs. Wait for it...... WHAT?! ZERO SEASONING, BOILED, CLAMY FEEL LIKE A WET FINGER!!! I almost gagged. By then I was half way home on a long drive. So I hoped that it was just a bad peice. NOPE... The whole rack tasted like that and had a light funky smell to it. I ordered a smoked chicken salad as well. Chicken tasted like it had been sitting in boiled water with zero seasoning then put in the fridge, then microwaved before stuffing it under some CHEDDAR CHEESE ON A PREMADE CEASAR SALAD. Nice clean place but order the ice cream not the BBQ. read more

I love it here! Great BBQ, delicious cream of crab soup, great hush puppies and refreshing sweet tea! Pretty much all you need!! They always have a steady stream of patrons and it's locals so you know that the food is good because they keep coming back. I like that it's not a big chain and it has a small town restaurant feel. Friendly staff too! Oh my most recent visit I dined for lunch for the first time. I got a chicken Caesar wrap and I really enjoyed it. You don't see that on a lot of menus and it was great to have something different. They gave me a huge serving of fries which was slightly overcooked to my liking but they were fresh and crispy. This was also probably one of the top cream of crab soup's that I've had. And I've tried a lot! I will definitely be back here for lunch or dinner. They have ice cream for dessert and I like to try some next time. It's been a while since I've been able to stuff some ice cream in here too! read more

First time dining here with my parents last night. Food: 1/2 rack baby back with fries and slaw: - I just wasn't excited about the rib flavor. I was happy with how they were cooked but the bbq sauce just tasted like Kraft - fries are the 'steak cut' fries with no seasoning. Normally I hate fries like this and won't even eat them, but these were cooked quite well -slaw was my favorite part of my meal. Light and fresh. I wish I had ordered 2 slaw sides Service: It's a small space, but it was packed and there was only 1 server who was very overwhelmed and kept making mistakes. My dad ordered a full rack of ribs and only got half. My mom asked for no fries and got fries and when the time for the bill came, it was the entirely wrong bill (but somehow correct table number). We placed our order before the place filled up, so I can't really point to the hustle for the errors there. So - meh ribs- not good service, I won't be back. read more

Was not impressed with the BBQ. It did not have the smokey, bbq taste you would expect, and worst of all it was dry. Not sure if it was an off night for them, but none of our group enjoyed their food. The server did well taking care of us on a busy night but we will continue our search for a go to bbq joint. read more

This business does not follow state law related to service dog access. Owner very aggressive and rude. He blocked the entrance and got in my face refusing entry. I left immediately because I did not want to escalate more than the owner. Made complaint to BBB. No response from business since they are not BBB member. read more

We pass this place everyday on our way home and have never tried it so we finally decided to come here for the first time on Sunday, we enjoyed it so much we tried to come back on Monday but they were closed so we came back today (Tuesday) and brought the whole family! Everything we ate was soooo good. We've had the baby back ribs, brisket, pulled pork, cole slaw, fries, potato salad and baked beans so far. The first time we shared sides but today I ordered extra sides cause I couldn't decide and hubby didn't want to share his lol. We tried the house BBQs and the sweet one was the best, so good. The server brought out old bay and vinegar automatically (I always request it when I go places and order fries so it was awesome that I didn't have to!) and she brought out some tequila hot sauce. It was delicious!! We've tried a few BBQ places in the area and this was the best by far! They also have a lot more than just BBQ (quesadillas, burgers/sandwiches, shrimp) so there's a nice variety of food. read more

Love their food and casual atmosphere. Staff is friendly and nice. They also have an ice cream window but I was there for the bbq.

Very disappointed. We tried a number of items and most of them were not edible. On the plus side, all the meat (brisket, pulled pork, chicken and ribs) were cooked just fine, but nothing had a bit of seasoning. When we put the house bbq sauce on, it was nothing special. In fact, someone in our party remarked that it tasted like Chinese sweet and sour sauce. The cole slaw and baked beans were similar to what comes from a school cafeteria. The worst, however, was the mac and cheese. It was literally elbow macaroni and scrambled eggs. I hate leaving reviews like this, because the staff were extremely nice and the food came out quickly, but when you spend over $50 on 3 meals, you'd like it to at least taste okay. We won't be back. read more

I ordered the half rack of baby back ribs, french fries with gravy and the macaroni salad. My friend had the brisket sandwich, french fries and coleslaw. Everything was excellent. The french fries were perfectly cooked crispy on the outside tender on the inside and not greasy. The macaroni salad and the coleslaw is some of the best I've ever had. Her brisket was perfectly as were my baby back ribs. The service was amazing and the wait staff were friendly and welcoming. I live in Virginia and could have gotten bbq just as good closer but it would have cost twice as much and the staff not as friendly. read more

I love fried food but I do not love smelling like fried food. Upon entering Twin Kiss Drive Inn, there was a rather unpleasant, fried odor in the air. Fried chittlins or some sort of intestinal parts would have been my guess. But like stepping into a port-a-potty, after the initial singeing of the noise hairs, you get used to the odor and end up going about your business. amd on this day, my business was getting ice cream after enjoying Johnny Boy's w/ DC Yelp's Carnivore Crew. Food stuffs - strawberry shortcake sundae ($4) - a generous dessert made with a packaged, greasy cake, several mounds of decent soft serve ice cream, strawberry sauce, whipped cream and a cherry. In general, it seemed everyone was wowed at the size to price ratio, but not so wowed with the flavors. As far as desserts near Johnny Boy's, this is about the only place outside of Chain Store Hell (or Heaven depending on your disposition) that is Waldorf. A couple of friends ordered sandwiches there and again, were impressed by the value but not so much by the quality. Location - plenty of seating but like going to a pho restaurant, be prepared to wash your clothes afterwards. If you're wearing a dry clean only jacket, you may want to leave it in the car. Service - was really friendly and they served our group quickly. read more

Texas Ribs & BBQ - Strawberry Shortcake Sundae ($4) - American Near Me - La Plata, Maryland

This place totally reminds me of some of the ice cream joints in my hometown. Dingy, greasy, but cheap and casual. Perhaps the smell of grease was a tad overwhelming but I mean expectations shouldn't be THAT high for a place where the half of the name of the sign is missing (SEE: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/EI0VHDIF5WcCTW3w7-kgaQ?select=pUVwgKwjqo47htD0EnDIMw ). In keeping with the tradition of ice cream after Carnie Crew events, the Crew came here for ice cream treats despite the fact that we just spent a good chunk of time eating ribs OUTDOORS in the middle of December and most of our extremities were frigid. (Hello run-on sentence!) I opted for a small vanilla soft-serve cone which was under $2. A small was just enough for me; had I ordered a bigger size, I probably would not have finished. Glancing over the menu, it seemed like everything was reasonably priced. I could see this place being busier in the summer for a cheap, cool treat but no special trips need to be made for Twin Kiss. read more

Good but nothing exciting like must have. Not a fan of the pulled pork. The brisket was good though. I have not tried the ribs but something tells me I should have. I won't drive out of my way to go here but if in the area ill come back and try the ribs. Service was excellent. Very friendly, especially read more

Texas Ribs & BBQ - Hot fudge sundae with whipped cream and a cherry on top - American Near Me - La Plata, Maryland

Sorry to say that the pork chop in the carryout sampler platter #1 was NOT fresh- not completely spoiled, but NOT fresh, and NOT a different flavor simply from barbequing. Called and spoke to a manager, he offered complimentary platter replacement, I may take it, but doubtful, not our usual weekend trek. Sauce is red, but vinegar based, brisket pieces are very lean, so easily dry, burned ends - at least Dickies offers that as an option, 2 ribs ok. I think they need a different cook. read more

Very nice staff. However the ribs were so tough and dry. The pulled pork dry as well and expensive for what you get. Not close to good quality meat or preparation. read more

Odd to be called Texas BBQ with no brisket on the menu. Food was okay but it is not a "must go" by any means.

Aggressively indifferent staff. There are four tables of customers, two young women and an older man working the floor, but no one taking orders, refilling drinks, cleaning used plates away, or checking on eaters. The woman who brought the check, in the unasked-for-hurry-up-and-go typical of poor service, has been sitting with another table showing wedding photos for nearly fifteen minutes while I wait for a refill or, if nothing else,. someone to take my card and the check sonincan leave. It's a ribs joint, so I tried the ribs sandwich. Four ribs between slices of Texas toast. Bone-in ribs. It took longer for me to work the bones and cartilage out with my butter knife than it took for my food to arrive after I ordered it. Was there a point to calling it a sandwich? It wasn't bad, but that's no praise for a barbecue restaurant. Not again. There are too many other choices where the staff is happy to have customers. read more

This place is great!, when in Maryland, my husband always buys me a rootbeer float from this place and it is great. I have not had the pleasure of tasting their BBQ and next time we go I will try their food, because if their icecream is great their food must be delicious. This California girl recommends this place. read more

Second visit to this BBQ stop in RT 301. Good tasting BBQ. It's the vinegar based. I had the collards and fresh cut fries. Collards lacked flavor to me and it was the same on first visit. Plenty of fries and they were very good. Sandwich I plenty. You will leave full. Both visits the service was excellent and from what i gathered it looks like the owner was walking the restaurant checking on the patrons. That's a rarity now a days ! That has to count for something. I think it's a great place to stop and try. read more
