★★★★★ 5.0 Mike X · Feb 2026

Hole in the wall. Sauce was better than some others I've had in the area. Not super tender but it's really good for the price. Both the pork and brisket were really good but I'd almost say the pork was better than the brisket even.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Jevin Griffin · Jul 2025

Came here with high hopes because my friend swore this was the best barbecue he’s ever had in his life. That being said, he hasn’t been in Bryan for 10 years. The brisket was possibly the worst I’ve ever had, the ribs were almost the worst I’ve ever had. Both overcooked, tough, and cool to the touch. The fries were decent frozen curly fries, the okra was actually great and the sausage was mids. The sausage and the sides saved this place from getting 1star. The ambience was everything you want in a hole in the wall hidden gem. It was smoky from the smoker inside and the decor was as if I stepped into a Time Machine to the 60’s or 70’s. Loved the atmosphere and the staff.

★★★★★ 5.0 Bonesy · Dec 2025

Easily my favorite restaurant to date. Staff is friendly, food is 10/10 and the atmosphere is so intriguing, showing the past 100 years the place has been open. Absolute treat to go there every time and I look forward to my next visit constantly.
