It's sort of a mid-range quick dining experience. You order your food, take a seat. Get your own drinks, silverware, barbecue sauce, Etc. When your number's called you go up and pick up your tray of food. No wait staff, but it looks like they clean the tables as people leave. Unfortunately, they were slow on cleaning up the tables so it's difficult to find a table that didn't need to be cleaned off.
The meats are pretty good, I had the ribs and I really enjoyed them. My husband had chicken and beef brisket which he also enjoyed, although, he found that the chicken seemed like it was soaked in something, possibly chicken broth. He would have preferred a piece of chicken over them shredding the chicken like they did. The sides were pretty good as well. The macaroni and cheese wasn't to my taste, is it was pretty generic. But on the flip side, be vinegar-based slaw was amazing. Very different from what I'm used to, but I really appreciate it how it cut the fat in the meat. The baked beans with beef brisket was also really good.
The environment was super cute, and felt contemporary yet it was still very Texan-ish.
While we overall enjoy the meal, we felt it was a little pricey for an experience with that is very similar to Dickey's.
Will return? Maybe. It's not down the street from us, so I doubt we'll be making a 20 minute drive to come back. But if we're on that side of town, possibly.
We were treated very well when we ordered our food. We also were treated well when we picked up our food . The staff is very helpful and kind. The food was AMAZING. My daughter who is a picky eater cleaned her plate and asked for more!
I have had a great deal of BBQ and let me tell you this place does it right. I was actually very surprised since it is a chain but man such good flavor to the BBQ and with the perfect amount of tenderness. I hope the quality stays high here cause we'll be back many more times if it does. The sauces available are also very good if you even need them. I would definitely say this BBQ is better than the Union Woodshop or even Bad Brad's or anything other BBQ that I've had anywhere near the "D". The place is a little on the small side but it really didn't seem to pose a problem, people didn't linger a long time after eating. They have outside dining as well and of course if you prefer to eat in your underwear you can get takeout. I highly recommend trying this place, the price is fair too. City BBQ, we'll be back!
Brisket is delicious, pulled pork juicy, ribs yummy, mac & cheese creamy. Outstanding hospitable employees, had above expectations service. Ed was absolutely wonderful to me and my staff. Gave sample lunch. We all will be back. Fun staff, loved dancing with the waving balloon man! Great inside decor, fun place, happy employees
