    I've always wanted to try this place out every time we walked into H-E-B. So finally when we had time and were hungry we decided to try this place out. Of course I was a little hesitant, since it is inside a shopping center, but it ended up being good. Once stepping inside you have a sports bar vibe. The menu is behind the register and the staff helps with decisions. I ended up getting the three meat plate (Pork ribs, brisket, and turkey) with beans & cornbread. My girlfriend ordered the two meat plate (sausage & brisket) with cream corn & potato salad. We also ordered drinks, which the variety of teas were amazing! The food was overall good, and the overall experience was decent, we will most likely be back again when the opportunity presents itself.

    Best teas and ice (just like Buckee's nuggets)

    HEB never ceases to amaze me. It seems whatever they put their heart into, they are going to excel at. They don't do anything without doing their research and making sure they have the best quality. I wish there was an HEB near me. Come on HEB.....Las Vegas needs you. So...not a McD's or a Subway or some other sub par fast food joint where even the service is hit and miss. True Texas BBQ is legit and their service is equally Texas friendly. Every time I've ordered, they are always patient and helpful. The food is priced pretty good. I mean, it's mid range in price and you get a good amount. If you sign up for their texts, you will get great coupons of certain foods every month. We typically get a combo of fatty and lean brisket. Both are moist and delicious but when the crispy edges with the layer of fat hit the smokey meaty part of the brisket, you get the perfect bite. I was skeptical of the turkey but pleasantly surprised. It was Smokey, tender, and juicy. Sausage is great too! It's hard to go wrong with Texas sausages though. The Mac and cheese is delicious. When your sides taste like homecoming, that's such a win! The brisket pinto beans have pieces of brisket in it. They aren't skimpy either. Of course we love the pickles, onions, and bread to go with our bbq. They have a variety of BBQ sauces for every palate. It's kind of fun to try them all to see what everyone likes the best. I'm an original or a spicy kind of gal myself. All the teas and the ice nuggets are awesome! Perfectly brewed! It is an art as I've seen so many people make teas bitter. Great job True Texas BBQ! This location is even more fun with a see through elevator to take you to a second floor for more seating. Also it may sound goofy but if you go to their bathroom you can really smell all delicious smoking woods and meats. Really great job as always HEB! Thank you for adding True Texas BBQ!!!

The indoor pool house area with the bar and seating space was a really nice touch, and the views of the river were beautiful. There's also a large pool and a great splash pad-style area for kids, which makes it perfect for families. It's conveniently located not too far from downtown New Braunfels, but still gives you that quiet, quaint, bucolic getaway feel. Definitely a place we would stay at again.

And I'll say right up front, the food was very good. From a short stack of pancakes (still huge) with a side of sausage links to the avocado toast with eggs and a side of bacon, the food was very good quality and flavor. What was disappointing was that the service was lacking. The hostess wasn't busy as we walked in but seemed preoccupied with wiping menus instead of acknowledging our party. We finally said "hello" and then were acknowledged and seated but no real greeting or enthusiasm. Similar behavior from our waitress. No niceties, just "do you want something to drink". When our coffee was delivered we asked for water and they were promptly delivered without any words but no straws. Maybe water isn't automatic here and maybe straws aren't either? Later, I flagged down the waitress to ask for straws and we got 4 straws --- for 2 persons ... ok. Again the food was great but my coffee cup sat empty from early on, needing a refill and I finally had to ask for it. I hope this isn't the norm.. and it wasn't terrible, but for such good food, you'd hope the service would match.

    How is this store in business? After reading the reviews, I thought surely everything was improved…read moreby now. I was wrong- We arrived at 11:40 AM to get several packages of the sliced ham. Their front cases were completely empty. Not one item and the store was not busy with customers. We were told they didn't have any right now. We drove in specifically for several items and couldn't really even get information about the product we were wanting. This is the week before Christmas, so I would think planning ahead would be beneficial. The lady at the counter could not tell us when they would have more but asked us if we wanted to wait for some? But couldn't tell us how long the wait would be... So clearly we're not waiting. We were going to order lunch there, but opted out. This place has such nostalgic reputation and has been in business since 1957 and I remember eating ham from here as a child in the 70s. It's sad to see one location ruin this reputation. And clearly from reading the yelp reviews this is not an isolated incident. And what makes it even worse is the customer service is nonexistent. No one cares or seems to know what is happening. And the overstock for the holiday season is not arranged well in the dining area/storefront to be conducive to any kind of dine in service or even safety for consumers. So we passed on lunch as well as previously mentioned... Annoying
