Vera's Backyard Bar-B-Que

Texas history - must do. The only underground pit in Texas barbecue. They were sold out of lamb by the time we arrived. Barbacoa and carnitas were good. Corn tortillas were delicious. However, I had to wipe down my own table. Staff is beyond super friendly.

I had heard great things about this place over the years, so I finally decided to give it a try. I brought a group of 12 hungry veterans for lunch, after a 5 mile hike. The service was amazing and all the food was delicious. I was really amazed with the prices. I was able to feed that many people for under $200.00! We were all ready to eat after a long morning of hiking, so not a single person though to take a picture or two of our food. However, all the pictures in the other reviews do not do this place justice. I can say, I have found another local gem for our monthly meetings.

This is a simple yet amazing taco shop. Get there early as they sell out quickly. We made it in on a Saturday morning as the rush was beginning to form and quickly had our barbacoa and tortillas ready to eat. Red chili sauce was the perfect level of spicy and gave the whole meal that perfect kick. Some of the best barbacoa I have ever enjoyed!

This restaurant though small is very quaint. It has a welcoming atmosphere which invites return visits. Have had barbacoa and carnitas and everytime, as scrumptious as the last. The service is extraordinary, they greet you as soon as you walk in, little to no wait, food is hot and full of flavor. The owner is present, making sure everything is running smoothly and customers are well-taken care of. Thank you for making our experience an absolutely wonderful one each time we stop by. KUDOS to you sir and to your magnificient staff!

Tasty barbacoa and menudo with all the fixings. Pay per item. So be sure not to forget your salsas and tortillas. Excellent service with momma giving me a complimentary sampler bowl of carnitas.
