My wife stopped here for first time ever and had the best meal. I had rib tips with fries and slaw. Tips were tender and fries were done right. We will be back. Nice people who know BBQ.

This restaurant was such a wonderful find! The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable, and the food had us moaning in delicious delight with literally every bite! I was so thrilled to see my THINLY SLICED brisket -- never had that before! What a flavor booster! Genius! The pulled pork was pillowy soft and tender. Neither of them really needed any sauce. The coleslaw was fresh and light and full of flavor, and the greens were everything they should be! Nothing disappointed about our visit, and even though we drove over an hour to get there, we believe we will do it again! So should you!

The brisket here is amazing. So much so that I admittedly haven't tried anything else. Great coleslaw as well. Very friendly staff, and I really like the board games scattered about to play while you wait or are eating. Orders are always quick, hot and great portions. Not a lot of seating, so if you come in with party of 5, you'll need 2 tables, but it is meant to be small. They have a really great family deal and prices are reasonable. Their in house made chips are perfect. Not too salty or burnt. Highly recommend stopping in for lunch or dinner.

Me and my mother went to Bombas yesterday for the first time . Their menu is stacked with great choices. It was a tough decision. I decided to go with the Catfish meal and my mom went with the Bluegill meal. The food was EXCELLENT!! Also my mom wanted to sample the BBQ sauces so she could have some for home . Once again both sauces were on point so she grabbed a bottle of both of them. The owner and workers treated us great and the food came out hot . We will definitely be going there again to try some of the other food as well .

husband and I ordered take out, and we are soo happy we did! I got a brisket quesadilla, the meat is so tender and it’s stuffed full with cheese. It’s so good. We also got sides of street corn, and it was delicious and unlike anything I’ve ever had. Try this out for dinner some time!

Update: Made it back and made sure to get a few pictures this time. We had the brisket tacos, fries, and jalapeno Mac n cheese this time. Can't wait to go back and try something new. I recently went here with a friend for our first time, and everything was amazing. I forgot to get food pics, probably because it looked so good I was just digging in, but we both loved everything we ordered. We're looking forward to going back to try some other things from the menu. I had pulled pork tacos, chips and salsa, and jalapeno mac n cheese, and my friend tried a few other meats, and different sides. I'll definitely try to get food pictures next time.

We just moved here from Fort Worth and were in the mood for bbq. We were not disappointed! The food was great, we had brisket, ribs, and sausage. We will definitely be back as regulars. The staff was friendly and helpful as well.
