Bar-B-Q Republic 9607 Southton Road, San Antonio, TX 78223

"First time eating here with the hubby. This place is located way on the outskirts not to far from Mission Flea Market. Plenty of parking and inside was cozy & clean. They do have plenty of seating inside and out. When we went it was not too busy during the night around 7pm. We ordered a sliced brisket sandwich with mac & cheese & banana pudding. We sat outside in the picnic table area where they had live entertainment that night. They had fire pits going due to it being a little chilly, which made it warm & comfortable. The sliced brisket sandwich was very delicious and tender. Perfectly seasoned. The mac & cheese was a little disappointing, small portion and not much flavor. The banana pudding however was very yummy, and was portioned with the right amount of bananas and wafers. Overall price was decent, depending on what you get. Customer service was friendly and helpful. Definitely will come back when the weather warms up."

"Food was ok, a bit pricey for dry brisket but that my opinion. I have never seen or tasted brisket beans, have to say they were tasty. I’d come eat her again if there wasn’t another bbq place open at the time or someone else paid. Hope you guys can figure out how to put some juice in the meat."

"First time trying it here. I was truly disappointed. We ordered online and picking up the order went over without a hitch. My issues began with the actual food. We were charged premium prices for paltry plates. I ordered a two meat plate and was charged an extra $2.00 to add ribs and was given a single burnt rib (see pictures). We also ordered a one meat plate and opted for the brisket and were given 2 extremely fatty small slices. The sides were really small. These plates reminded me of fundraiser plates. The taste itself was just okay for me. I guess it is all about preference. It might also be worth noting that young children were assembling the customers' orders. We will not be returning."

"First time here and we were not disappointed! Family friendly establishment with some awesome BBQ. Lots of seating both inside and outside on the patio. They also have Karaoke and live music. The staff was awesome and super friendly. Highly recommend the brisket and turkey. Truly enjoyed my banana pudding cheesecake! We will definitely be back!"
