Review The Brisket House - Houston

Bryan Carroll
Very impressed with the food and atmosphere. $- decent prices. Pretty typical of BBQ. My party had a brisket spud and a chopped beef. ~$23. FQ- Food quality was excellent. Granted we got chopped beef on both of our meals. But it had excellent flavor and tenderness. The spud was good too, plenty of butter and cheese. Sauce is good. S- Service: The only sub-par part of my trip here. It was VERY slow, we were the only ones in the shop when we arrived at lunch. The employee taking our order just seemed completely disinterested. By the time we left there were probably ten other patrons. A- Atmosphere: it’s a really nice place. Rustic, but nice. Would be a great place to watch football or have a large party. They’ve got lots of TVs and plenty of room. Parking is behind the restaurant.

Easy to find, and plenty of parking in the rear, this grand country restaurant has the best tender Turkey Sandwich on an egg bun that doesn’t need BBQ sauce as it is cooked in the toaster! With a side salad, it makes the meal perfect for an all around meal. Yosmer offered me a courtesy cup without asking and with a smile. He was very professional and remembered everything to-go. The sauce is sweet and peppery and mild, and sure to please. I would definitely Be back if I’m ever in the area. Enjoy!

My parents were in town and wanted to some good Texas bbq. The struggle has been hard trying to find a bbq spot with both good bbq, sauce , and sides. My mother and I orders the brisket loaded potato. The brisket was perfect! Potato was a nice size came with butter, cheese, green onions and sour cream. We both felt like potato was missing a little something. The sauce we received wasn’t good at all we couldn’t determine if it should have been bbq sauce or some type of ketchup. My father ordered the 2 meat plate. He stated his sausage, brisket and beans were also good. The Mac &cheese was okay. The sauce he had was ok, but nothing special. I’m willing to give the Brisket house another chance and try some of their other sides. The location is very big and has ample space for big parties. Everyone was very friendly. Drinks are self serve.

Ya'll!!!!!!! This place just restored my hope in Houston BBQ! Myyyyy Gawd!! This is why ya'll only got half of my food in the pic because I most before I remembered to take a pic. I'm a country girl from KY and I've been looking to find BBQ that is close enough to home. While I've had some good BBQ here, none has done it for me. Specifically the pulled pork. But BABBYYY The Brisket House on Cypress Creek? YEP! I'm sold! Now I can't vouch for the other locations but this one was amazing! The cashier was a sweetheart (Jess I think). I got the Two Meat Plate (Pulled Pork & Brisket), Macaroni & Cheese and baked beans! I got a side of slaw, a regular bun, sliced pickles and mayo to assemble a pulled pork sandwich! AMAZING! Reminded me of home! It comes with sliced pickles and onions. Those baked beans though? Sheesh! I got a side to go lol The mac was good & cheesy. The slaw was basic, but good. The brisket was tender and not dry like most places and the pulled pork perfect. The sauce is just right. Not too sweet. And the banana pudding was so good that I tried to save a little for home...it didn't make it lol All and all..10/10 highly recommend. The staff was nice and service fast. The space is huge and clean.

My family has been coming here for about 4 years and we always enjoy the food! My Fiancé and I decided to plan our couples shower here for about 30 people (they can accomodate more, too!). Overall great location to host an event. You can reserve their private room, or tables in the main dining area. They were able to set up a buffet line, which went very smoothly and they were very attentive on restocking trays as things ran low. I primarily worked with Edgar, one of the managers, to coordinate booking the space and finalizing the menu for the party. Our guests had compliments for the space, meals, and service!

I just stopped here for lunch and for the first time ever. The parking is in the back and then you have to walk around to the side door. They greeted me upon coming in and was extremely friendly and super helpful. I got the 2 meat plate with sausage and brisket and then I got baked beans, potato salad and collared greens. Then my sweet tea to drink. My total was $28. It was all super good and extremely hot! A but pricey but amazing customer service and food!

Really good macaroni, okra, sweet potatoes and sausage. Brisket — lean and loose was ok. I liked with sauce, my partner did not. Potato salad was ok. Big space and plenty of room. Their dessert looked good. Huge, beautiful area outside where to eat. Good place for a family to go. Several huge tables for big groups. Food seems very consistent - solid. I wish I would’ve tried their PBJ — pulled pork, brisket and Jalapeño sausage. Their fried fish also caught my eye.

Everything I ordered was so good. Worth every penny. You gotta give these folks a try.
Emily Simmonds
Really good overall. The Mac and cheese wasn’t our favorite, but the cream corn was great, and the potato salad was pretty decent. The brisket and sausage were definitely the best things there. we’ll be coming back again. Thank you!

I used to always pass this place finally decided to give it a try and I’m glad I did! It is very good BBQ. It’s great if you want to grab a quick bite for lunch/dinner. The food overall is good. The ribs fall off the bone, the brisket is not dry, sausage nicely smoked. The sauce I could drink it honestly. I love that it is not a super sweet bbq sauce it’s got that vinegar taste and it really compliments the meat. The sides are a pick and choose thing the potato salad not so great but the other side was was good. The prices are just wonderful most places will charge you and arm and a leg for bbq but this place is absolutely worth it. I definitely will be back to try other things they have. 1-10 I give it a solid 8.

My stuffed chopped brisket potato was so good and tender. I will be coming here more often.

Looking for junk food on door dash , found these brownies and I am SOLD!!! SOOOooo many good reviews I can't wait to try the food! Update I had some of the St Louis ribs and baby I could eat them cold they're so good!

Solid BBQ with fast service. It's a great place to stop in for a quick (relatively) bite to eat. I stopped in midweek at the end of lunch hour. It wasn't crowded. I ordered from the charming young lady behind the counter and took a seat. The food was on the table in 5 minutes. Courteous service. I ordered the 3 meat plate with coleslaw and collard greens. The fatty brisket was deliciously smokey but not overly so. It may be too fatty for some, but it was perfect for me. The sausage was cooked nicely with a crispy casing. It's meat was juicy and not overcooked. The ribs... Well, they were a little bland for me. They were juicy and tender. I did not use the BBQ sauce on the meats, just some pickles, and onions. So my experience is based on the meats alone. The BBQ sauces were either sweet or mildly spice. Nice, but not needed for the meats. All in all, it was a great walk from my cardio stress test... LOL... Please don't tell my doctor ;)

I've been here multiple times over the last year and the food never wavers! This is some of the best Bbq I've had in Houston. Food quality is always on point and the service is very good. Great crew. Try the PBJ sandwich, you won't be sorry!

I ordered the fried fish meal. It was much different than what experienced the last time I ordered it. It seemed too salty this time around. Hopefully this was just a one-off event.
Marvin Wilson
I ordered a half pound of moist brisket and two pork ribs. The brisket was delicious: very tender, great outer bark, smoky flavor. The ribs were short, but very meaty, tender and smokey. My wife got the 2 meat plate: brisket and turkey with beans and fried okra. She liked the brisket and sides. I sampled a bite of turkey and enjoyed it. Friendly staff, clean dining area, really good bbq. We'll gladly go back next time we are in the Houston area.

This place has amazing bbq. I got a chopped beef sandwich with fries and everything was delicious. My husband got brisket, it was amazing as well. I’ve been trying to find a good bbq place close to me and I’ve finally found the place! I will be back for sure.

Had the three meat plate with two sides. Brisket, ribs, chicken baked potato salad and baked beans. Everything had the same salt and pepper based rub. No wow factor. Brisket was ok. Uneven slices, good bark little flavor. Ribs were overdone and fell off the bone. Tasted ok. Chicken was bland. Tasted like ham. Good smoke on it. Skin was rubbery. Beans tasted like they were out of a can and doctored up. Baked potato salad was good. Tasted like Rons baked potato salad you can buy by the bucket. Overall, price was decent. Beef ribs are too expensive. Service was impeccable. Place was spotless as always. They really need to tweak their pits and get a better cook on them.
David Charles
Delicious. Brisket is moist, tender and flavorful. The big dinosaur bone beef ribs they have on Friday, Saturday and Sundays are our favorite. They are almost melt in your mouth tender. The extra heavy course salt and pepper rub on the beef ribs is awesome and true Texas style.

I have passed this restaurant for awhile so after reading all the reviews online decided to give it a try. I normally don’t do reviews but this one had to be done. The layout of the restaurant was very nice and customer service was very good although it was empty. We ordered 2 two meat plates and extra side of sweet potatoes. Spent about 30.00 which is about average price. The ribs were hard like they had been warmed up all day. The chicken had an extra glazed cracked pepper on top which I had to remove. The collard greens & green beans taste like canned & were disgusting. If using canned items you have to know how to doctor it up. I don’t know the words to use for the sweet potatoes but just not good. Brisket and sausage was not tasty one bite & had to spit out. All food was thrown in trash. This is just my opinion and the honest truth.

The People were great. The food was Amazing. I ordered the 3 meat plate. Sausage, Ribs and Brisket. I eat a lot of BBQ. Hands down the best in Texas. The only problem was too much for one person to eat. Loved it!
Andrea Delgado
Very good bbq. Really enjoyed it there, especially since we had a whole room to ourselves for all our basketball athletics, parents, friends and coaches.
Lance Rebel Welch
Dude, this place is good. Meat cooked just right. Not overcooked, very tender brisket, and the chicken is excellent. Could use a little more mustard in their potato salad, though. Overall, a new favorite.
Charles Turk
There was only 1 person there to help us. But the food was great I and my co worker ordered the 3 meat plates and we were not disappointed. Loved the baked beans. Don't miss the jalapeno sausage.
Leslie McCartney Jones
I got Wayne's PB&J, which stood for pulled pork, brisket and jalapeño bread. The meat was so tender. My husband got ribs and sausage and the ribs were falling off the bone goodness. Employees were helpful as well.

We will be Back ! This was the best sauce I've ever had and the restaurant is so clean . Would be a great place for a rehearsal dinner :)
Anthony Thibodeaux
Some of the best bbq I have had. Also the staff there is real professional.
Diana Hanby
Everything was delicious! I had a two meat plate and the ribs were tender and delicious served with a whole pickle, & onions. I smacked on free sliced pickles.
Greg Nash
It was ok! Potato salad was kinda of plain tasting. The brisket was vary tender. Chicken was a little dry.
Mike Hackman
