I went for the first time and spent $300 for brisket for the family and I was completely blown away by the quality of the food. I couldn't wait for my second time to show even more family how awesome this place was. Well my second visit spent about $250 on the brisket and I was surprised on how far the quality went down, brisket was so dry that after my first bite I literally wanted to throw the entire brisket away, it was that terrible and everyone that had a bite agreed and couldn't see why I bragged so much about it initially. With that price and amount of inconsistency I doubt I'll risk another visit to Truth. read more

Two words: TATERTOT CASSEROLE. I'm still thinking about this side dish ever since I left. It's so fricking good. I wish I could bring home a big batch of it. Highly recommend it. The brisket was good too and I'd skip the cheesy sausage, unless you like that. It just wasn't for me. The home sausage was solid. The potato salad is cold and delicious for a hot day! Unlimited soft drinks too! The chocolate cake is MASSIVE. Split amongst 3 people and it was still alot. Before it opened there was a long line already so I suggest go early. Definitely worth it and I'll go back if I'm ever there!! read more

every single part was super flavorful - meat flavor came through and really good salty/peppery crust flavor too not super tender/fall apart-y. corn pudding: very good, lots of real corn pieces brussels sprouts: sauce was sooo yummy - it was a little sweet but not too much and not too oily either also the plate was really good value we got everything for $30 and it fed two ppl and the service was really good they were super generous and kind and the carver gave us some extra end pieces + samples :) Liked the red bbq sauce best although didn't need it. Nice bbq ambiance w/ music and clean. 10/10 experience read more

Truth BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Houston, Texas

Came here right when opening to avoid a line and found the experience to be okay. The flavor of the brisket was good and it had the ring you'd expect, but the temperature was very lukewarm. The tatertot casserole was interesting and the corn pudding was my favorite side! The brussel sprout were okay, a tad sweet for my palette. The house sausage was seasoned well and had a good snap to it, but similar to the brisket the temperature was also very lukewarm. Overall, I'd say it's okay. I think there is better bbq to be had in Houston probably. I wouldn't be back on my next trip to Houston. read more

Was told this is one of if not the best BBQ in Texas/Houston area. Definitely did not disappoint. Lines are always long no matter what time you come(I got there 2:30) but it did move. They do some specials each day but I went with three meat plate with two sides. Speaking to a regular in line and she mentioned that turkey is great and tater tot casserole. The ribs particularly were incredible, literally fell off the bone. They offer sauces at the tables and dessert which was too much for me at that point but look fantastic. Employees working there were super nice and the dining area had a cool Texas feel to it. Bring your appetite and leave home any vegans read more

The wait is well worth it! We had about a 30 minute wait to get to the counter to order but the staff was really kind and food comes out as you order so its a smooth operation. We got a couple of mixed meat plates and the daily special which was a beef rib with a couple of different sides. The restaurant does fill up quickly so even though there is lots of seating inside and some on the outside patio, it may be hard for groups over 6 to sit together. They do have high chairs for babies and the staff work hard to keep the restaurant clean. Overall our favorites were the beef rib, sausage, Brussels sprouts and mac n cheese! read more

Coming to Texas, I definitely needed to get my share of bbq! I heard about Truth in Houston and I came here on a weekday just before it opened at 11 am. It already had a line by the time I got there, but the line moved fast and there was a decent amount of seating. I had their 3 meat and 2 sides platter. For the meats, I had their brisket, pork rib, and pepper jack sausage. The meats were seasoned as I didn't even bother using ant sauce! For the sides, I had tater tot casserole and potato salad. I've had tater tots but The tater tot casserole was a huge highlight for me as I don't think I've had that before! read more

Truth BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Houston, Texas

I'm visiting Texas with my dad, he thinks this trip is about "learning the different cities." I'm here for BBQ. We showed up around 6pm and hit a 30-minute wait, which felt fair. Ordered about 3 lbs of pork ribs and half a pound of brisket. Let's start with the miss, I asked for fatty brisket and got mostly lean. That's not a small detail, it's kind of the whole point. The lean brisket lands around a 6, solid enough but lacking the richness you want. The few fatty pieces we did get were much better, around an 8, and honestly would be pushing a 9.5 if they were served hot. The ribs are where things get frustrating. Flavor, great. Texture, exactly what you want. But they came out warm, not hot, and that matters. If these ribs were served properly hot, they're easily a 10. As is, they drop to about a 7, which feels like a missed opportunity more than anything else. Cole slaw was a surprise standout, fresh, balanced, easy 9. The baked beans were pretty good as well, maybe slightly sweeter than my taste, but still solid, an easy 8. Service was genuinely good. At one point my dad mentioned needing silverware, and a staff member overheard and brought it over without us asking again. Small moment, but it stuck. All in, this is a place that's very close to being excellent but misses on execution in ways that are hard to ignore, especially at around $130 for two people. If I could land at a 3.5, I would. But factoring in value, this comes out to 3 stars. read more

Truth BBQ - Lean brisket - Barbeque Near Me - Houston, Texas

This place does get pretty busy and the parking can be challenging. They have this window where you can see the staff seasoning the meats. All of the staff were friendly and upkeep the place really well. They give out samples of the brisket at the counter which i thought was neat. They had moist brisket, turkey, banh mi, sausage, and more. The variety of the menu is pretty unique for a bbq place. The inside is very spacious compared to other bbq places. They even had a bar around the corner. I tried the jalapeño sausage which had a little kick to it and I think some cheese. Then I tried the moist brisket and that was fatty and juicy. The ribs were also pretty soft and had a crispy outer layer. The Brussels sprouts were nicely cooked but not too heavy on flavor. The corn pudding was basically like a corn bread but with pieces of corn in it and tasted a little milky and soft. I would definitely recommend this place for their brisket. read more

This is the TRUTH! We had the brisket Philly sandwich, pork ribs, and the Jefe (brisket sandwich with grilled sausage). Everything was finger licking good! One highlight was the tater tote casserole which was somehow moist and crunchy at the same time. Pork ribs were fall off the bone good. We brought a pound a brisket home to give to our neighbor and they did a nice job vacuum packing it for our flight. read more

Before you even step into Truth BBQ, you get a whiff of that smoky goodness that immediately makes your mouth water. We arrived around 4:45 on a weekday & there was already a line forming--always a good sign. We ordered the 2-meat plate (brisket & pork ribs, w/ mac & cheese & corn pudding) annnnnnnd then added another 1/2 lb of brisket plus the tater tot casserole & brussels sprouts because life's short and everything's bigger in Texas. My mama always said my eyes are bigger than my stomach... and she was right. I left in a full-on food coma for many hours. The 2-meat plate alone (especially with sides) is more than enough to share for two. Ambiance is nice and clean. There's outdoor seatings & they have everything you need. Verdict: they take their BBQ seriously. The brisket was tender, melt-in-your-mouth good, and the ribs had a deeper, smokier flavor. I'd probably pass on the mac & cheese next time, but the rest of the sides were solid. The tater tot casserole is a must, & the brussel sprouts were surprisingly really good--plus it makes you feel better like you got yo veggies in. 4.5 stars for me. Would be nice to have some more side veggie options & the ability to double the same type of protein for the 3 meat plate. The brisket was a tad on the dry side. Overall solid spot! read more

Truth BBQ - Receipt - Barbeque Near Me - Houston, Texas

Got to Truth BBQ about 15 minutes after they opened and ended up waiting in line for around 20 minutes which honestly wasn't too bad considering how popular it is. A little disappointing that they were already sold out of the pepper jack cheese sausage.That said, the overall food was really good and definitely lived up to the hype. The portions on the sides were surprisingly large, which was a nice bonus. Even with a couple minor letdowns, it was still a solid BBQ experience and worth checking out. read more

The line was out the door when we came by on a Sunday afternoon, but we decided to wait b/c when in Houston, we had to try this spot. My husband and I split the 3 meat plate with ribs, brisket, jalapeno cheddar sausage, tater tot casserole, mac & cheese, & we got a side of Brussels. Everything was delicious but the brisket was my fav. Worth the wait! read more

Truth BBQ - 3 meat plate - Barbeque Near Me - Houston, Texas

Truth be told, Truth BBQ was just okay. Maybe you BBQ aficionados just have a different palate than myself, and that's okay, but I personally couldn't justify the 40 min wait. I was super disappointed that beef ribs are Saturday only! BOOOO! While you wait, they do give you a little sample of brisket once you make it to the front. The sample was super tender, so we ordered a 2 meat plate with brisket and pork ribs, as well as an additional 1 meat plate for extra brisket. Each plate comes with 2 sides, 2 slices of bread, and they also give you sides of pickles, pickled red onions, and pickled veggies. I really loved how colorful and full all the sides made the plate. Pickles are a nice way to cleanse the palate between bites! I personally do not care for sliced bread that isn't toasted, however these were very soft and fluffy, so my daughter ate one whole one. Our sides of choice were the tater tot casserole, corn pudding (basically a creamed corn casserole), potato salad, and baked beans. The sides are where it's at! The selection of sides is what brought me to Truth over all the other BBQ spots in the first place, so I was happy they didn't disappoint. Both the tater tot casserole and corn are a bit mushy, but I personally love that texture. The baked beans were soft and sweet, and the perfect complement to the other savory potato sides. BTW The potato salad gets topped with bacon bits! I asked the man serving the pickles if I could have a little extra bacon, which he wasn't stingy about at all, so I def appreciate the customer service! The pork ribs were tender but nothing to write home about. The brisket was super tender where the fat was, but pretty dry on the bottom half. They have 3 bbq sauces on the table (brown, yellow, white) and I didn't care for any of them :( Their drink selection is large, ranging from fountain drinks to lemonades to frescas. The mango fresca was my fav, followed by the strawberry watermelon! There were people walking around clearing the trays off tables, as well as a man walking around checking in with the customers and asking how things were. Everyone we met with was nice and friendly, and we appreciated the vibes. Right before you pay, there is a whole case of cakes and desserts. The cake slices are COLOSSAL so of course I had to get two to try lol Both the chocolate cake and carrot cake were bomb! The cake itself is so moist! I am a carrot cake girly and lemme tell you, I've had my fair share of carrot cakes. This one is by far one of the best I've ever tried! The cream cheese frosting actually has a cream cheese taste! It's smooth and slightly tangy. Absolute perfection. The cake itself has hella chopped nuts and carrots but no raisins, coconut shreds or pineapple pieces. Just the way I like it! The chocolate cake was also good, but I'm just not a chocolate girl the way my daughter is. With a glass of ice cold milk though, I would demolish that thing. Overall the meats wouldn't bring me back, but the cake would! Lucky for me, there's a separate door just for the bakery if that's all you're looking to get. read more

WOAH so delicious. My friends and I waited on line for probably 45 minutes on Valentine's Day AND in the pouring rain (there is a cover for the patio/outside line area so we were fine). I'd still say worth the wait. The food is prepared quickly once you get to the front of the line. with the meat freshly brought out and the sides at the counter, ready to be scooped into the serving size. The brisket was very good, although I'm not typically the biggest beef fan. Dare I say the turkey meat was the the best turkey Ive ever had in my life??? I had no idea barbecued turkey would be this good. wow. All the sides were delicious; Truth BBQ was great and I highly recommend for anyone visiting Houston! read more

Truth BBQ - 3 meat combo - Barbeque Near Me - Houston, Texas

A friend from out of state was visiting & wanted the best BBQ in Houston so we decided to check out Truth BBQ. We went for a mid lunch & there was a line, however it went by fast. They have a good plate option where you can get 1 or 2 meats & 2 sides. The food was delicious. The ribs were so tender, I would easily come back for that. They also have a bakery as well, but unfortunately we were too stuffed. Great spot for some good BBQ! read more

That burn't ends that they give away as a taster, DAMN THAT'S GOOD! Sell me that!! Ok, I normally don't give out 5 stars but this place is great! There was a little bit of a wait for us to get in but the staff behind the line was super friendly and let us try some of the meats, THANKS! Brisket was GOOD. I couldn't even pick it up with my fork because it kept falling apart. But dude.... The sides kept up with the meat! They were so good!!! Especially that Tator one! I have regrets I didn't get the big quart of that! Vibe and atmosphere was super chill. Probably because everyone was so happy enjoying their amazing food. That dude manning the tables was SO NICE! Would I go back? Hell yeah! This is my top spot for BBQ right now. I'm glad they are so far away. My waist line is appreciative of that. Can't wait to go back. read more

I visited Truth BBQ this weekend and overall had a solid experience. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff really stood out! They were incredibly friendly, let me sample sides, and checked in often throughout the meal. The line was no joke (about 45 minutes), but I did appreciate the water station while waiting. Food-wise, everything was good, though not perfect. I was bummed the beef short ribs are only available on Saturdays since I came on a Sunday. I ordered the brisket plate with three sides--the brisket was solid, mac and cheese and corn pudding were both tasty, but the coleslaw was underwhelming. Overall, a good spot with great service, just come prepared for a wait and plan your order accordingly. read more

Finally got a chance to try the infamous Truth BBQ. Parking is a little bit hard to find but there's an HEB nearby so if you really need to, you can always park there and walk over. I went on a weekday and during prime lunch hours and the time it took me to get the food was ~45 minutes. Line moves pretty quickly and given how popular this place is, I have no complaints. Nice staff AND HUGE portions. A 3-meat plate is normally just right for me but it was MORE than enough. I will say I had better brisket elsewhere but the ribs and pulled pork were delicious. I also am not a fan of sausages but their jalapeño sausage is to die for. And the mustard BBQ sauce; I wanted to buy a whole bottle but apparently they ran out. Sides are hit or miss. Mac n cheese was standard but the corn pudding and Brussel sprouts were flavorful. Surprisingly a good amount of seating inside. Overall a place to definitely try if you are visiting Houston! read more

Finally got to try truth and now I'm mad I waited this long!!!! Came about an hour after opening to an already 3 lane line. So parking took about 5-7mins to find. I stood in line for about 20 mins and we moved a few feet. During that time I met others who came all the way from Florida. At this point I remembered how serious it was. Saturdays are the beef ribs only day so I called to check if they'd still have some when I made it inside. The employee who answered let me know there were only 3 racks lefts and probably would sell out before an hour which is about how long they estimated based on where I was in line. I decided to play safe and just order to go as I was standing there. 37min wait time. My to go order did in fact beat where I was in line by a far. I moved to Texas 20yrs ago. I never experience the great bbq ppl speak of until this day. The beef rib was huge and worth every bit of the $40. It was seasoned to perfection, tender and didn't need any sauce. Even when reheating left overs. I checked other elites reviews before selecting sides. Glad I did because I wouldn't have chose the loaded tots or corn pudding. Everything was amazing. Beans too. Personally I didn't care for the bbq sauce but again didn't need it. Everything I tried 10/10!! read more

Service was quick and they were all super kind & patient. Brisket, tender and delicious. Smash burger, juicy and flavorful. Brussel sprouts were so crispy and flavorful. Corn pudding was sweet and smooth. Banana pudding?? You just have to try it, 10/10. The Mac & cheese was really creamy and smooth but my table and I agree that it needs a bit more flavor; maybe a splash of liquid smoke, pepper, and smoked paprika??? Overall great experience and cool environment!!! They have cool merch for sale too read more

Truth is one of the best barbecue in Houston. There is always a long line on the weekends. Just figured out that they are also open for dinner on most days and is bot as busy but food is as good. We ordered 1 lb of brisket (half moist, half lean), 1 lb pork ribs, jalapeño cheddar sausage and sides of coleslaw and baked beans. The brisket was the star of the show. You don't need a knife to cut it. It was basically crumbling on its own as you pick it up with a fork. Very juicy. Definitely a must order. My friends like pork ribs. They were surprisingly tasty and tender and fall off the bone. Jalapeño cheddar was a little spicy so depends on your preference. I personally like the level of spiciness and the cheddar combination. One of my go to items. Coleslaw and baked beans were complementary to the meats. Staff was efficient and friendly and didn't have to wait long. They cleared our tables as we finished eating. The restaurant is like a modern barbecue. Rustic but with a full bar with an outdoor area. If you only have time to try one barbecue in downtown Houston. This is it! read more

Ain't this the truth.. Wait time very reasonable (around 20 min for a Friday night at 6pm). Brisket cooked well, but the sausage and mac & cheese were my favorite.

4.5/5 This place has potential to be 5-star, but I wasn't able to try their signature beef brisket, so I'm leaving it at 4 stars until I try that. I was in Houston for 2 days as part of a stopover to Japan, and I had my friend take me to some of the best that Houston has to offer. Obviously being in Texas, a BBQ place is a must, and he took me to this place to try. There was a lineup outside of about 30 minutes. My friend said I came on a good day, as there's often lineups of over an hour. When we went in, I was disappointed to find out there were no sliced briskets left, only chopped. That's fine, I went with that instead with mac n cheese and corn pudding. It was excellent! The mac n cheese was creamy, and the chopped brisket had a lot of fat and juice...which I know some people don't like excess fat, but I was perfectly okay with it. The corn pudding was great as well, it's not something I usually find up north where I live. My friend decided to add a tub of brussel sprouts and asked me to try it. I'm normally a brussel sprouts hater, but oh my goodness...it was amazing!!! I don't know what kind of broth and flavours they added to it, but the brussel sprouts are definitely a must try here. It's over the counter service here, so don't expect much. However once you're inside it's quick serve and you're out in 30 minutes or less. Highly recommend this place! Perhaps in a future visit they would have actual sliced brisket. read more

This is one of the best BBQ I have had. The only think I disliked was that I was not able to try everything. They sell the meats by pound and they do have specials. They cut the meats in front of you and just makes you drool even more. I got the 3 meat plate. I got the Brisket, Ribs, and Jalapeno cheddar Sausage. It also came with two sides. I got the mac and cheese and brussels sprouts. The brisket was soft and filled with flavor. It almost melted in your mouth. What impressed me more was the sprouts. They were amazing. Packed with favor. You can't go wrong with any of your choices. There was lots of indoor seating. It was a bit too hot to sit outside. Great music and the service was great too. I am glad i was able to try real Texas BBQ. read more

Some places don't just call you -- they summon you. Truth BBQ was one of those places. I've eaten my way through the smoke-filled sanctuaries of Central Texas, and I don't take barbecue lightly. But for weeks, this name kept drifting through my feeds like a whisper through Spanish moss -- Truth... Truth BBQ. Eventually, I took it as a sign from the barbecue gods themselves. You'll find it nestled in the historic Heights, that old soul of Houston where porches sag just right and time feels slower. By the time I arrived on a Saturday evening, the faithful had already gathered -- a quiet line of pilgrims waiting outside the temple. Post oak smoke curled through the air like incense, blues music leaking from within. The scent alone could make a sinner repent. When I finally crossed the threshold, I offered my tithe: the Texas Trinity -- brisket, ribs, and sausage -- along with sides of potato salad and mac 'n cheese. The brisket was tender enough to make you believe in grace again, the ribs fell away like confession, and the sausage snapped with a divine finality. For a moment, the world faded -- just me, the smoke, and that mournful guitar weeping in the background. But the story doesn't end there. Drawn back to the altar, I ordered their Tres Leches cake -- sweet salvation in every bite. And when I learned that on Sundays they serve fried chicken, I felt the sting of regret like a preacher's sermon on missed chances. If you ever find yourself wandering the Heights neighborhood of Houston, follow the smoke, listen to the whispers, and you'll understand why they call it Truth. read more

Hands down one of the best meals I've had in my life. The food deserves far more than five stars. The serving size is generous and it's hard to stop eating. I tried the three meat plate with two sides. The absolute best was the pork ribs! These were fall off the bone, so tender and flavorful. Pork Ribs 10/10! The pulled pork could have been the best almost anyplace else if the ribs weren't so sensational, I give it 9.5/10. The brisket was also fantastic, a solid 9/10. All of these were so good, I never even tried their sauces. Let's get to the sides...mac & cheese was good but not too cheesy, I give it a 7/10. The brussell sprouts were insanely good. They are soaked in some kind of sauce that is an umami delight. There was about a 30 minute wait when I went on a Sunday so be aware. It was worth every minute of waiting. read more

Truth BBQ - Brisket, pork ribs, pulled pork at Truth BBQ Houston - Barbeque Near Me - Houston, Texas

On a quest to try all of Houston's notable BBQ and stopped by Truth. We came 30 minutes before they opened on a Saturday (only day they have beef rib) and would definitely recommend that as a 30 min wait in the shade is better than an hour wait in the sun. The service was friendly and someone goes around to ask how the food is, which is nice of them. The restaurant was pleasantly clean and welcoming. As for the food itself: Beef rib: (4/5) it was pretty good but for the price I would have liked more flavor. Brisket: (4/5) solid brisket (but Corkscrew has ruined me, nothing has compared to their cuts) Their barbecue sauces are definitely unique and fun (white BBQ and a mustardy BBQ sauce) Corn pudding: (5/5) AMAZING! I would come back just for this. It was hands down the highlight of our meal, it was that good. Overall, I would come back and definitely would recommend it to others. read more

"I want the Truth!" "You can't handle the Truth!" Little did you know, Jack Nicolson was actually referring to Truth BBQ where a taste of truth will set you free. With all sorts of BBQ out in Houston, the question becomes which one? Truth BBQ is up there with melt in your mouth brisket, fall off the bone pork ribs, and well seasoned sausage. Do yourself a favor and spoil yourself with a 3 plate combo that comes with 2 sides. While any side will probably be delicious, I enjoyed the tatertot slaw and corn pudding which is essentially tatertots prepared with cheese and some resemblence of a coleslaw but with potatoes. The corn pudding is corn bread, but more mushy. Both were good. As for the brisket, pork ribs, and sausage? Yeah they were pretty great, juicy, and tender. Eat it by itself or with their 3 sauces, it's delicious regardless of what you do. So if you don't know which Texas BBQ to eat, start with the Truth. Order first then sit and enjoy the magic that's about to be Truth BBQ. read more

Second time here. First time for my wife. This place is just Awesome. The look, the smells, and overall experience is something else. The aroma of smoked meats hits you as you pull into the parking lot. Both times I've stood in a line waiting for them to open. Both times as soon as the doors open the line moves at a good pace. They have there system in place to keep things moving along. In no time you're seated at one of the many tables ready to enjoy some of the best bbq you've ever had.

It was okay, but it definitely did not live up to the hype--and it most certainly wasn't worth $30 for a two-meat plate of underseasoned BBQ. I had the sausage and brisket, and both were a letdown. The three sauces were also disappointing, especially the white one, which tasted like watered-down mayonnaise. Surprisingly, the highlight of my meal wasn't the meat but the side dishes. The tater tot casserole and corn pudding were both really good--maybe even great--but I didn't come here for the sides, I came for the BBQ. On top of that, the restrooms were disgusting, with pubic hair all over the urinal. Not exactly a good impression. If money is no object, maybe you'll find some value here. But my budget is tight, and when I splurge, I expect it to be really good. Final thoughts: sure, give this place a shot--it might be right up your alley--but for me, it was a miss. read more

Definitely a must visit! I see why it's Michelin star rated. Although the brisket is not as fatty as I'd like it, it's still good and everything else is delicious. The Brussels sprouts are amaze-balls. My husband even liked them and he hates Brussels sprouts. Mac and cheese is crunchy and perfect. Sweet potato soufflé is basically just pumpkin pie disguised as mush. The sausage tastes like a chili cheese hot dog according to my husband. Set up is like many of the other current bbq places- you stand in line outside the door and wait to get your food and then pay and find a table. While you wait outside, they have free water and also a bar with margaritas, beers and such. There are some bus-men that are super friendly and help get drinks and to go containers. Say hi to Jerry if you stop in. He's a nice gentleman! After eating all that food, I'm going to go take a full belly nap. read more
