    This True TX BBQ is dirty, slow, rude and overall a dump. Old equipment and dingy surroundings make a BBQ sandwich sound like a dream!! The manager Eduardo is a nightmare!!!

    This HEB is our home away from home when we are working in this area. The Flaming Bird is our favorite thing to order including the yummy sides it comes with. The entire team is awesome! It’s a privilege & a joy when we stop by. P.S. Jayden recommended that I leave a review. She also went above & beyond 🌺🌺

    We ordered a whole chicken and a breast was missing. We went back to advise and “Macalynn” advised that it was there when clearly it was not. We ended up not eating there and got a refund. Never, will we come here again! Terrible service!
