    Cornbread is amazing. Barbecue is probably the best I have had outside of Texas.

    As a visiting Texan, the food tastes like anything I've has at home. Get the mac and cheese, it's delicious! And they have dr. pepper, best.

    Great food but pretty pricy. The market concept seems to nudge you toward getting too much food. Come hungry!!!

    They have Big Red made with sugar! I love the corn pudding, and you can't go wrong with the moist brisket.

    Moist beef brisket, potato salad and corn pudding is the way to go. Grab a mason jar of iced tea while you're at it.

    Brisket lunch special, potato roll instead of white bread. Mix sides of mac&cheese and chili: not healthy but so delicious!

    When crowded -sit at bar. Get your drink specials and get a meal ticket for food & bring back the bar. Avoid the long wait! ;)

    Pitchers of Shiner for $20 all the time. Mac&Chez is good, chili mac is better; chili has a nice spice to it.
