Old Tomball BBQ

"Went on a Sunday. The place has the feel of authentic 'hole in the wall' BBQ shack. I got a 3 meat plate with 2 sides. The brisket was above average. Moist and the fat melted in your mouth. Had decent flavor but definitely benefitted from some sauce, which was warmed up and already on the table. The ribs were good. One of mine was from the end and was a little dry and not a lot of meat. The other one had plenty of meat. The meat was tender and came right off the bone, but again was a little lacking in flavor without some added sauce. The spicy sausage was a letdown. It looked really good, but like the ribs was lacking in flavor, even with the jalapenos. The mac and cheese was warm and creamy, with lots of cheese sauce, but nothing else. So, it was kind of plain. Kids will love it though. The fries were really good, made to order, so they came out hot and were well seasoned, but they don't have ketchup in bottles. So, you're forced to tear and squeeze little packets of ketchup, which I hate! The wife got potato salad and fried okra. Both of those were decent, but she wanted ranch for the okra and they didn't have any. As for the service, everyone was friendly enough, but they have a sign that says to leave your trays on the table, but they don't clean the tables quickly enough, and we saw several frustrated customers trying to find a table inside, because they were all dirty. They have an outdoor seating area, but I can't speak for that part. Price ended up being a little over $40, for 2 people. All in all, nothing about this place was bad, but nothing really makes me want to go back at that price. There are better BBQ places in the area."

"The food is so good! The brisket, pork ribs and sausage is what we tried and it was all moist, not dried out at all with awesome flavor. The macaroni and green beans were very good too. I am glad to have finally found BBQ that reminds me of BBQ we get in the hill country! Because chain restaurants do not ever compare. Fast and friendly service too."

"The service was amazing. They were so sympathetic and understanding about me Having my last meal with my best friend. He will be going to the Lord today at 4:30 I couldn't have picked a better place to have a amazing meal with my Bestie Deebo"

"*First things before we get into the food, the price per servings was spot on. We were looking for a BBQ restaurant to try, and Old Tomball BBQ popped up on the radar with a good rating. Me and the wife got the loaded baked potato with chopped beef, and the kids got the one meat brisket plate. Everything was good, and the BBQ sauce was warm and spot on with taste. The brisket was missing a little something but was tasty and warm. The team cut a fresh brisket, the bark looked excellent, and the chopped beef for our potatoes was chopped on the spot. The atmosphere was nice as it reminds me of an old BBQ joint. It was hard to get a good photo, but it's definitely worth a try and will go back to try other foods."
