Scott S.: One of Houston's newest and best BBQ places. Full bar. Big beef plate ribs, lean brisket, glazed pork ribs are fantastic. Get the jalapeno cheese rice and coleslaw sides. Banana cake for dessert!
Morris Fuentes: Love the brisket! Tried their jambalaya on this visit and it was really good
Peter Kim: brisket & ribs (beef & pork) are amazing

Eater: “Bram” Tripp is manning the pits, smoking up briskets, three different types of sausage, pulled pork, and other meaty delights. Also on offer are unique offerings like elotes and chips & queso. Read more.
Blair Allen: Best bbq in the city! The brisket taco is MASSIVE and delicious, as is the queso. Highly, highly recommend.

Rebecca Arnold: Moist brisket is super great! Jalapeño sausage is also really good. The potato salad and green chile stew are the best sides. Really disappointed with the creamed corn and Rudy's beans. I will be back
Hin Tsang: Brisket moist and sausage are outstanding
Brooke S.: Brisket, Cole slaw, banana pudding, cheddar cheese
Jennifer R: Excellent brisket and turkey!
Houston Press: The Brisket House proves it can also have good sides; the smoked chicken, ribs and brisket here are every bit as wonderful as its baked potato salad and coleslaw at this Galleria-area restaurant. Read more.
Alexandra Robitaille: Fatty brisket potato is so good and huge! I had the 1 meat chicken and I think it was the whole chicken so good for the price! They are super friendly.

Nancy Vu: Brisket taco and tikka chicken are heaven sent.
Fernando Covas: Great tacos, not too big like at Torchy's. The slow roasted brisket taco is so tender... The shrimp and grits taco is a good one, too.

Scott S.: My favorite dish here is their brisket cheese fries, with fresh-cut fries, board-chopped brisket, queso, and topped with house-made pico de gallo and sliced jalapenos.
Ed Escobedo: Had brisket , very tender friend had pork ribs very good
Darrell Moore: Baby Back Ribs , Beef BRISKET with Bake Potato Substitute
Lauren Martinez: Everything is great here! Brisket and jalapeño cheese sausage are my favorites and DON’T skip the cake!
Clay Whitehead: Excellent brisket, slaw, and potato salad! 5 stars
Dave Turnbull: Overpriced. Above $20 for half pound of mediocre brisket, a side, and a drink? Really? They also snubbed me on bread and gave me only one slice. Workers seem to be on the low IQ side.
Che: Incredible BBQ. Went there with a group of locals and out of towners and everyone LOVED it. Go for the sampling platter with brisket, sausage, and pork ribs.
Max Wenneker: Trinity platter is a great deal and gives you a good sampling of everything. Bark on the brisket was fantastic.
Scott S.: Sampler platter is good way to try a little bit of everything, and it's a great value. Brisket burnt ends on a hefty housemade jalapeno cheddar biscuit is also a great choice.
Matt Mullenweg: My favorite brisket, ribs, and sauce in Houston.
Jan Poepke: Brisket, Sausages, chicken...everything....best BBQ in the Houston area!!
Christina: Brisket & sausage are delicious!
