    Came from Arizona walk-in to H.E.B with a friend and didn’t know there was a bar upstairs. Shannon was as the bartender and did amazing and had a great experience. I will be back.

    Would like to know how it is but they cancel your order after you pay for it, and then say they don't even have what you ordered. If they can't even have meat for sale at a damn BBQ then what kind of half-assed place is it?

    The lovely young lady named Kea took both mine and my friends order. She was friendly, funny and prompt in the service she gave us. We felt very much welcomed and had good laughs. Overall it was a very good experience.

    Well, my first time at tge now famous HEB BBQ restaurant. Cool concept, but if you're going to do BBQ in Texas and you're HEB, you'd think it would be nicely prices and bordering on epic. Nope. See photo. That's a no-so-big in Texas chopped beef sandwich. They must have stolen the buns from McDonalds cheeseburgers. Flavor was pretty good, as was the spicy sauce. I got hot tea because their ice machine was broke. For the price, way too small. At Pokejo's I could get 3 times as much for the same price. So, everything is bigger in Texas except HEB's chopped beef sandwich. Good, but not impressive.
