- MCMITCH CLINKENBEARDNov 9, 20252.0Ordered the 2 meat plate to go. Supposedly LEAN brisket and pulled pork. Received 2 pieces of fatty brisket for $7.00. It was tender. Pulled pork was a decent amount and was tender and moist. Creamed corn and brisket beans were both quite good. Good flavor with a touch of heat. Did not get bread that is supposed to come with this order. Service was just okay, nothing special. Inside was not busy but the drive through was hopping. Had read articles saying this was great BBQ. Have to disagree with those opinions. It's okay, but to be honest, Spring Creek BBQ beats the pants off of them. Better brisket and pulled pork with larger portions, more side choices, faster service and all you can eat fresh rolls. When I ask for lean brisket at Spring Creek, it's lean, no fat.
- SWSue WalkerOct 31, 20255.0I was anxiously looking forward to returning to the Melissa HEB and was not disappointed. The food was excellent and Christy was a true example of Texas hospitality! I'll make plans for my next trip.
- MLMargo LindseyOct 31, 20255.0This was my second time visiting the Melissa HEB with my mom. Both times, we were incredibly satisfied with our meals. If you get nothing else, get the collard greens and fried okra! Cristy, who has been there both visits, is incredibly friendly, attentive, and helpful. She's one of the reasons we will continue to go back!
- DCdon “ratman” casOct 30, 20253.0I finally tried True Texas BBQ wasn't happy I got the pulled pork wasn't true pulled pork it was more liked a sloppy Joe sandwish as for the sweet tea was good. The price was okay. The staff was nice and the place was clean. Hope the rest of the menu tastes better than that pulled pork.11/16 went back to try the turkey sandwich it was good and as always the employee are polite and helpful plus patience since I have a severe profound hearing loss consider in the deaf area.
- KGKristy GaconnierOct 27, 20255.0I got 2 lb sliced brisket in drive thru. When I got home I realized only half my order was in the bag. I called and spoke to Cristy. She was professional and very apologetic. I came back and they really took great care to make it right. The manager on duty was also very helpful.
