The BBQ is really good. This is my 2nd time here. Good friendly customer service. Jessica is very friendly as well. Also the manager Momin was also very helpful. Got a discount on my purchase. Chopped beef BBQ potato salad & drink for $9.99 plus tax. Highly recommend.

Service and the atmosphere was wonderful! The food was great, I had a cheeseburger combo and a half pound of brisket. The brisket had good smoke flavor, but little seasoning. Not too bad though. The burger and fries were great! Customer service was the best!

This place serves easily the best burgers in Houston. The burgers are amazing and I will continue to keep coming back and ordering them as long as I'm in porter. But, I'm sorry the BBQ could be seasoned a little better. The Brisket is tender and smokey but has absolutely no flavor. Keep up the great work with burgers though.

Food was really great and the service was very pleasant, but I have a couple notes. 1, the ribs had barely any meat on them, was mainly bone and gristle. 2, I ordered the side of grilled sausage and got green beans and zucchini instead. Tasted good but not what I ordered. 3, when the description for the plate read that it comes with a side of bread, I was expecting a bread roll or Texas toast or something like that, not two plastic wrapped slices of white wonder bread :/ seems a little cheap tbh. Otherwise I enjoyed my food and plan to return.
