If you are looking for decent bbq on the riverwalk, this is the place. We sat outside right at the river which was great for people watching. Our server was really nice and attentive. I loved the fried pickle spears. Not too much breading at all. The pulled pork sandwich was ok but the brisket was so good! The right amount of smoke and the bbq sauce was perfect! I'm not sure where you would need to park as our hotel was right on the riverwalk, so we were right around the corner. Is it worth the drive?...yes read more

I knew that while visiting Texas, I had to have BBQ at least once. Since I could not drive to my regular place (I used to live in SA), I decided to visit the County Line on the River Walk. After we arrived, we were greeted right away and they did not make us wait until everyone arrived to seat us. They had a large selection to choose from which is always helpful. The drinks were nice and cold (always a good thing in Texas). The food came out at a reasonable time. Overall, the food was pretty good. I appeared that everyone at my table enjoyed themselves so that was great! BTW, some guy posted a review about enchiladas in his review, if you look at his receipt, it is a different restaurant. This place does not have enchiladas! *LOL* x .. ......... .. ... read more

See my Google review for this place! ! WOW-WOW-WOW! Great food, perfect pricing (not Riverwalk overpriced) and great service! I brought my two Japanese teenage cousins and we ate on the patio. They had never tried BBQ so this restaurant needed to impress! That's when Kevin B our server introduced himself! Such a great personality! Suggested some amazing items, both chose the combo platters (so they could taste a variety) and i had the loaded baked potato topped with brisket! They both gave the food 12/10 stars and i am sure, will be back to try BBQ again! When in San Antonio, I highly suggest this restaurant- the location, prices, amount of food was literally, PERFECT! Thanks Kevin for the excellent service! read more

Location is great. I did feel like the seating along the river is a little tight. There people at the table behind us kept bumping into me. And the bricks under the table were extremely uneven, which made our table not sit straight. Service was great, no complaints there. We ordered deep-fried pickles, the pulled pork sandwich and light brisket platter. Everything was good except the pulled pork sandwich, which I was very disappointed in. The sides with the brisket were a little bland. But the brisket was great!! read more

While you are in Texas you must have BBQ. Riverwalk worker recommended this place. I had a pulled pork sandwich loaded with pulled pork, and coleslaw. The only thing that was different, the coleslaw was in chunks not shreds. Flavor okay. Margarita came with a tumbler. Great for the price of $14. Outdoor seating, and the service was good. Place filled up quickly mid-afternoon. read more

So we were looking for some barbecue that was nearby and this location was close to us. While it didn't have the best reviews we decided to give it a chance We were seated inside, and I decided to have the loaded baked potato with pulled pork. Potato was great, pulled pork was really good even though I will say visually this is not what you think of when you think of pulled pork. Quite frankly when they first brought it out, I actually thought it was curry. My husband got the plate with ribs, lean brisket, pulled pork, and for sides, he got the collard greens and the potato salad. The brisket was pretty dry and the ribs had a weird seasoning to them, which he honestly just couldn't get past and didn't end up eating much of them. Pulled pork wasn't to his liking. He just didn't like the flavor of it . Collard greens are pretty good. They definitely had a lot of heat to them and potato salad was good although they are heavy on the dill pickle side. So overall, the food was not terrible, but was not the best barbecue we've ever had read more

Stopped by The County Line on the San Antonio Riverwalk and the atmosphere is definitely the highlight. It's right on the water and sitting outside makes for great people-watching -- perfect spot if you want to enjoy the Riverwalk vibe while you eat. The servers were friendly and welcoming, which added to the experience. We tried the fried pickles to start. They were spears instead of slices, which was a first for me. The flavor was fine, but the batter slid off pretty easily, making them a little awkward to eat. For my main, I ordered the light brisket plate with potato salad and coleslaw. The brisket was just okay -- a bit tough and came out cold. The sides were average and didn't really stand out. I also had a glass of wine, but nothing memorable there either. Overall, there are definitely better barbecue spots in San Antonio if you're looking for top-tier food. But for the Riverwalk location, friendly service, and fun atmosphere -- especially outdoors -- it's a solid option if you're prioritizing the view and people-watching over the meal. read more

I got the three meat plate - brisket, ribs, pulled pork, beans, mac 'n cheese, and the queso & chips appetizer. The only good things were the queso and chips & my server. The brisket is pale like it was boiled or something. The ribs were tough and chewy. The pulled pork was in some sort of disgusting liquid. The mac and cheese was mushy and the beans were horrible. I came here because Pinkerton's was closed due to it being Monday. Lesson learned. read more

Was walking on the Riverwalk looking for dinner and stumbled upon this place Pros: - The server was very nice and efficient - I definitely recommend sitting on the Riverwalk, even though they have a large indoor seating area - My favorite dish was definitely the ribs Cons: - I love fried pickles, but in their version the batter just slides right off so the texture and flavor were off - The brisket was a bit on the drier side and the fries weren't crispy read more

Never judge a book by its cover. Chat GPT said the best margarita on the Riverwalk is at Boudro's. But we got turned away by some kid at Boudro's who said it would be a 30 minute wait for us just literally right after he sat some people. (It must have been my 3 day old beard.) Anyway, when one door closes another one opens. So we backtracked to County Line BBQ on the Riverwalk. We sat at the bar and Lee hooked us up with chips and queso with brisket, and I had four of the best margaritas I have ever had in my life. Nothing like sitting at an authentic bar with a pro bartender for killer drinks and munchies during an afternoon on vacation. read more

Stopped at The County Line for dinner one evening while strolling the river walk. Place was pretty busy for a Monday night in February, but the weather was perfect, so we sat outside on the patio for a quick bite. I had an order of wings and a Lone Star. My friend had the brisket tacos and he said they were really good. The tacos came out in just a couple of minutes and the wings followed a few minutes later. The wings had a nice smoky flavor and the texture was nice, but they were a bit one-note without any sauce on the side. Service was prompt and friendly enough. read more

Cool spot! I stopped here off the Riverwalk for dinner. I ordered the two meat plate with brisket and sausage; the sides were potato salad and mac and cheese. I was a little disappointed that the brisket was on the tough side. It had a noticeable smoke ring and great flavor. The sausage was good and had a little spice to it. The potato salad and mac and cheese were great. Service was quick and courageous and the prices were good, considering the touristy location. read more

What do I have to say about this place- 1st of all Manuel is very friendly and told us the best drinks to get. He always made sure we were good and our drinks never got empty. The menu has a lot of great items, but whatever you get it's always delicious. We loved the food & it was absolutely fantastic! The atmosphere was very lazy back and very quiet. Loved how clean it was and tables were not sticky at all!!! Definitely always a favorite for us and it never fails to amaze us! read more

Great BBQ at very good prices right on the Riverwalk. You can smell smoke. This is real deal BBQ. Husband & I had the platter and we both indulged and took some home. It was like $35. The drinks were good. The loaf of bread came out hot with soft creamy butter. The brisket was tender and didn't need sauce. The chicken was juicy and cooked perfectly. The sausage had a little kick and was the first meat we ate. So good. Highly recommend!! read more

The BBQ felt a bit overpriced and geared toward tourists, and the food was just okay overall. The baby back ribs were the highlight--they were very tasty and well cooked. However, the other meats were a bit dry and lacked flavor. They do have a good sauce that helps when dipping the brisket. The service was fine, nothing particularly special. I don't recommend you order too much food and bread. The meal sitll with felt you after two side disks. The tipping process felt a little uncomfortable to me. Overall, the place has a family-style vibe. read more

This is truly a tough one. Came here with my wife, and kids ages 19 and 15. Located right on the Riverwalk, so the vibe is great. Service was also solid, even a little fast so take your time ordering. Food? I have the pork sandwich and had fires and beans on the side. The sandwich was really really good and the beans were possibly the best bite on the table. Fries tasted old and a bit stale and the "side" of slaw that came with the meal was tiny and warm. Ugh. My wife had the brisket tacos and slaw and loved it. One of my kids had the chicken strips and Mac and cheese. She likes it. Nothing special, but good. My oldest had the same. Forgot to mention we have the cheese queso and chips app and it was tasty. Unlimited chips! Wife and I had a margarita. Served in a very small glass with a tumbler to pour the rest. Watered down big time. Some food, really good. Some, not. Ambience, great. That's all I got read more

They have salads and sandwiches back! The server struggled with simple words like "fries," but he was pleasant enough, if preoccupied with the table behind us. The turkey was moist and flavorful, but nothing was hot - the only detractor. We had mediocre experiences that few visits, but they have absolutely redeemed themselves! read more

The County Line - Baked potato with brisket - Barbeque Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Macaroni and cheese was tasteless, brisket was dry and not even sure what the plan was for the ribs. Staff was nice and attentive

Restaurant was clean, wait staff was excellent but it was probably the most bland BBQ we've ever had. Brisket had zero bark, zero seasoning. We won't waste our money on it again. read more

We sat down outside in REAALLYY uncomfortable chairs, but we liked the view of the river. Things went downhill FAST. The prices are steep but we figured it HAD to be legit food. NOPE. The brisket was either hard and tasteless (lean) or fatty and disgusting. Their BBQ sauce is no better than Kraft's. My ¼chicken was UNDERCOOKED, the potato salad was terrible and sour, the coleslaw was NOT slaw - more like BIG cabbage chunks with mayo, the mac and cheese was Stouffer's, and the baked beans were inedible. The ONLY thing good about the whole experience was the bread - that is $4.99 extra. It IS heavenly. That was all. The rest wasn't fit for the birds around the table. read more

I can't eat enough food when I'm there! It's all so good! I had the lean brisket and I loved the bbq sauce they use! The collard greens were a hit! Loved my peach cobbler too! read more

After stopping at another bbq place on the river front who was out of "Mac and cheese" (how does that happen??), we stumbled here. Good thing we did... Katie the hostess who sat us was very engaging and fun despite how busy it was. And our waiter Ted was the absolute BOMB! #weloveTed The food...let me start by saying that my husband is very picky, especially about his brisket (he compares everything to his dad's Texas brisket). He loved it and I agree!!! The Mac and cheese was just the right amount of cheesy and the potato salad was spot on. Excellent food, excellent service...we may come back before we head home in 2 days!! read more

Food was mediocre at best. Hard ribs flavorless chicken and brisket and on top of that it was all cold. Fries were the only things i enjoyed. Our server ted was not very good at all, he took a very long time to even come to our table and offer water that his trainee had to do it and when it was time to pay the bill he took his sweet time serving múltiple other talles before he even made his way to us, didn't even get a cold mug for my beer like everyone else around me did. Food was bland and cold and Teds service was not good. Would not be back. read more

One of the best brisket places in the river walk. We tried county line for lunch recently. They literally had a line to walk into the restaurant. Service was great and had a good ambience. We tried 2nd cut brisket (which is a limited item). It had a marbling texture and literally melted in my mouth. I recommend the hearty over the lite since the dish is so delicious. Try it for your self! read more

I wanted Brisket and what I got wasn't that at all! my meat was unseasoned and just purely nasty. the potato salad had more flavor than the brisket and that wasn't good. the best thing I had was my fried okra. I have never had brisket with absolutely no flavor. The waitress was very nice and offered to give me something else but I was so done I just said no. And paid the bill and left. she did give me $10 off the meal. read more

Ambiance along the river was great! It was a beautiful day to sit outside, lots of umbrellas for shade. The service was pretty good, very attentive waiter. The food was... mediocre at best? The corn dog for kids meal looks like a microwave cheap corn dog, the fries are flavorless, the Mac & cheese is decent. Drinks are priced well. The BBQ sandwich was good but pretty greasy. I probably wouldn't visit again. read more

Located on the river walk, which is beautiful any time of day. The service was good, but the food was just okay.

It's on the river walk so of course it's a whole vibe but still cute and cozy in its own right. Food is dynamite. Weakest thing in my plate was the potato salad and it wasn't bad. Service was very friendly and everybody else in the restaurant seemed as happy as us! read more

I did a little homework about San Antonio and picked with restaurant with high expectations on BBQ. Food - disappointed! I ordered three meat combo with smoked 1/4 chick with the leg and thigh ( tasted like chewing wax, dry and not much smoke flavor ). The prime cut, it was ok, definitely on the dry side even I picked the not lean part. The ribs, oh no, it tasted like jerky with lots of fat. The side dish, bean and vegetables of the day, both look and taste are like the can food. The only thing did not disappointed was the "famous house made bread" -- if you have sweet tooth like mine, it looks like sourdough but tastes sweet , warm and spongy, also went very well with the honey butter the restaurant served. The restaurant located along the river walk, nice to see the boats and river swimming by, but be cautious of flies, pigeons and other bugs might attracted by your food. The waitress I had was really nice to bring me a big fan to keep those bugs away, which attracted lots of attention, quite useful for flies but not to the bees/ wasps. ( be prepared if you prefer to sit outside like I did during October still over 90F) read more
