- MEMrs. Evers1 day ago5.0Service was superb and pork ribs with okra were on point, amazing flavor! It was a high quality meal for very cheap, $12, and honestly the best place to go for bbq in Kingwood for the best price. HEB brand Dr. B is like $1 cheaper inside the restaurant vs in the actual grocery store.
- WSWalter SmithDec 27, 20255.0Good food inside a grocery store. Fairly quiet.
- ABAllyssa BargerDec 21, 20251.0Well, first the lady at the counter gave us a ton of problems because she couldn't read the name on the bag, luckily we had the receipt or we wouldn't have gotten our food that we already paid for. Then, we get home and try to eat but the sides were ALL wrong. Some of the sides were mixed up with different plates and there were beans on there we didn't even order. All around bad experience. Never going again.
- CECustomer Service ExpertDec 16, 20253.0Considering that this is located inside of a store, it is taken into consideration when given my ratings. Overall the food was good, but not highly recommended for real smoked BBQ. The quality of the meet was good. The macaroni and cheese was a big disappointment because it tasted like it was boxed Mac and cheese and it had so seasoning. At least add shredded cheese to the top of the Mac and cheese and make it replace it in the air fryer to caramelize the cheese and add salt and pepper. I don’t recommend the banana pudding! No cookies in it and there were few bananas. It wasn’t great! It’s easy to make banana pudding so there is no excuse.
- HDH DDec 5, 20255.0I was really impressed witj our cashier, Janet. She accidentally overcharged me for an item. I didn't even notice, and she came over to our table and told me she was issuing me a refund. That was really sweet of her to notice and fix the problem.
