    Perfect brisket. Delicious potato salad. Nothing else need be said. This was an excellent pairing today. Got me in and out and I was thrilled to taste the food when I got home. Thank you!

    You can either order at the desk or order at the kiosk they have provided in the front. Ordering on the kiosk was easy. Food quality - so disappointing. The only thing I would go back for is the moist brisket. And their bbq sauce comes pre-packaged (we had to walk back up to the counter after getting our food because they didn't offer when we picked up our meals). The corn was ok.. it wasn't great but it was edible. The cornbread was a 0/10. It was so burnt on top that I thought it was a banana nut bread of some type.. I ate the inside to give it another chance and it was beyond dry. I couldn't even swallow that bite. wouldn't eat here again unless I try out the brisket sandwich.. maybe.

    We grabbed some BBQ on our way out of Texas. I have to admit I'm not a BBQ connoisseur at all, but I have had some pretty good BBQ elsewhere. We both got the 2 meat combo. I got sausage and chopped brisket with potato salad and mac n cheese for my sides. It was ok. The brisket was a little fatty but tasted good, the sausage had a nice spice to it without being over powering. I didn't care too much for the sides. The cheese in the mac n cheese was a little to thin and the potato salad was just ok. I liked that they gave you pickles and onions on the side. Oh, and the soft white bread was delish! Hubby got the pulled pork and jalapeno cheddar sausage with beans and corn bread. They were all ok. We also tried the peach cobbler and banana pudding. The cobbler had a little clove taste to it, which was different and the banana pudding was missing the banana flavor. Both BBQ sauces were pretty good. The staff was very friendly and polite.

    Banana pudding, delicious

    This is a review from the day after opening, accidentally posted to the wrong location! =) Most of these stars are for the staff and the sides. The staff, despite being ridiculously busy, were nothing but smiles. This was essentially a soft opening in the middle of the most overwhelming grocery store opening I've ever seen. I thought they did great. They kept the place clean and were walking around in case anyone needed anything. The food... was fine. The brisket is weirdly sweet and slightly sour at the same time. It didn't taste like any Texas brisket I've ever had and I've lived all over Texas. But the sandwich bun was great and my sister added coleslaw to it which she said was good. The ribs had a great flavor but they were overcooked, which is fine, they'd been open for like, 24 hours so not bad! The cornbread was slightly overcooked and a little dry but the flavor was good, I'd definitely get it again. Add a little of the cream corn and it was awesome. The mac'n'cheese and cream corn were my favorites, both were just on point, absolutely great. The corn was fire roasted, that just won the ballgame. If you were to add a little creamy habanero sauce and cotija or queso fresco, their cream corn could be elote. Another highlight was the pickles. They were so good and I was so sad I didn't get a container. Turns out they sell big containers of them in the cold meal ready area. My sister didn't tell me until we left the store. So, before I end this, I'll say I'm probably one of the only people in the south who doesn't like banana pudding. It's just not my thing, I haven't liked it since I was little. I tried a small bite of my sister's. I had to assert some serious will power to remain polite and not rip it out of her hands. It's delicious. I couldn't believe I was going to tell people I loved it, but I did. We'll be back for sure, overall it was a really positive experience.

    Food was ok but not good enough to come back. Order was ready very quickly. My baked potato didn't come with bacon or cheese but I took my food home so I couldn't ask them for some. I give them 3.5 stars EDIT: ended up finding a piece of paper in my sons cobbler luckily he didn't like it so I started eating it. Changing to 1 star

    I had a delightful experience at the new H-E-B Alliance True Texas BBQ. The approximately 20-minute wait, including ordering at the menu, went by quickly given the order size and line length. I thoroughly enjoyed the food; the brisket was tender, the ribs had great flavor, and the sausage was delicious. Additionally, Texas Torpedo's were excellent, but be cautious with the jalapeños as they can be quite hot. Lastly, all of the sides were good except for the cream corn which had an unusual overly creamy texture that I didn't prefer.

My top two favorite is the Thai coconut chicken bowl and spicy Korean bowl. The food just tastes so fresh. I do get tired of eating rice sometimes. It's nice that they have different bases to add instead, such as sweet potatoes, roasted veggies, cauliflower rice, etc. I also like to add their fresh juices with my meal. I'll admit that I don't eat enough greens, so I opted for the power green to get my fix of kale, cucumber, and celery. If you're an açaí bowl person, I would definitely get this if you're not super hungry. They do have a drive by area for pick-up orders only. With that said, you can also order through DoorDash if you can't stop by in person. I'll be visiting often since this is such a clean and delicious way to eat without feeling heavy/greasy.

Service is very friendly, super accommodating. Restaurant is super clean. Fair warning: 1) Food is on the pricier side. 2) This is not fast food. It will take a minute for them to prep because it's fresh. On a non-busy day my food will take about 7-10 minutes. If they're busy, longer. However, they do have an app you can pre-order from.

    literally the best place ever. I am writing this review as i'm eating a slice of their jalapeno…read morecheddar sourdough because it's just this good! so fresh, so fluffy, so flavorful. Every single thing I have got here is amazing... sourdough loaves, yummy scones, coffee, the most amazing chicken salad sandwich, cookies, cinnamon rolls i've literally never had something bad here.

They need to hire and train people who actually care about food execution otherwise fall back to warming muffins and making coffee... Update: loved listening to the staff complaining about all of the other employees and how bad they were at cleaning and doing their side work...the one lady would not stop commenting on all the other closers who don't do a good job...yes, while we were sitting in the dining room eating the food. Seems to be it's all pretty connected...don't care about customer experience? Produce poorly executed and uninspired food....! Don't care about customer experience? Complain about all the people you don't like who do a bad job closing...while you do a bad job closing (the irony, all of the tables hadn't been wiped...had to wipe our own when sitting down)

    Came in with high expectations for The Sicilian Butcher--and this time, they absolutely delivered…read more In one word: impressed. THE FOOD: This is where they shine. You can genuinely taste the freshness and care in every dish--and their specialty is that everything is made in-house, which in this day and age feels like a real treat. The chicken parmesan was a standout--tender, flavorful chicken with a light, crisp breading, topped with a bright, clearly house-made sauce. The lobster ravioli was excellent. The pasta was delicate, and the lobster filling was perfectly cooked, sweet, and fresh--easily one of the highlights of the meal. The Caesar salad was light and refreshing, not overloaded with dressing (which I appreciated). Bonus points for accommodating my request for extra anchovies. I do wish the dressing leaned a bit more into bold anchovy and garlic flavors, but still very enjoyable. The lasagna was another strong dish--rich and comforting with an authentic blend of pork, beef, and veal, layered with house-made pasta, sauce, and creamy cheese. The only miss for me was the clam spaghetti. While the ingredients were clearly fresh, it lacked the depth and richness you'd expect--more butter, wine, and clam-forward flavor would have really brought it together. THE SERVICE: Attentive, accommodating, and welcoming throughout the meal. Requests were handled easily, and the staff struck a great balance between being present and not overbearing. THE AMBIANCE: Lively, warm, and inviting. It has that energetic Italian dining feel without being overwhelming--great for both a casual night out or a more intentional dining experience. Bottom line: Fresh, house-made Italian dishes done right--with that rare, from-scratch approach that really sets them apart. Definitely a spot worth returning to.

    My sister and I decided to surprise my wife with a retirement party at The Sicilian Butcher. I had…read morebeen there previously for a Yelp Elite event and had been waiting to return. Hagen, our server during our dining experience, was cordial when he introduced himself. He inquired if we'd dined at the restaurant before and it we had any questions about the menu. I mentioned to him that I had attended a Yelp event previously at the restaurant. The decor of The Sicilian Butcher is beautifully appointed. The restaurant has a HUGE outdoor patio area with canvas that can be dropped down to close it in. It's great for banquets, etc. After looking over the menu, our table started out with some phenomenal appetizers. Fresh baked bread with garlic butter, a Ferris wheel of several different meatballs and bruschetta. We probably overdid it with the pre-lunch appetizers. I started wondering if we were going to have room for our lunch entrees. There was quite a variety of entrees ordered. I was sure there would be plenty of to-go boxes needed. I decided on the "Build Your Own Pasta" entree. I chose a Truffle mushroom sauce with creste de gallo pasta. My sister opted for the 'Fig & Pig' Ciabatta sandwich, my wife and brother-in-law, Chicken Parm with rigatoni, my nephew, Spaghetti with Vodka sauce, Lobster Bisque, side green salad. Wow Everyone LOVED all their entrees. Hagen took excellent care of us throughout our stay. One of the managers stopped by the table several times to ensure we were being taken care of. We were indeed. Thank you Hagen and "The Sicilian Butcher" for an awesome celebratory luncheon celebrating my wife's 50-year career in the accounting industry.
