Agape BBQ

"Overall this place is lovely. We went around 5:00 on a Saturday evening and we were the only ones there at first. By 6, more people had joined, especially since Joel Tucker Band was playing around 6:30 (right as we were leaving). The open backyard area has ample seating, is wonderful for families + friends to hang without feeling crowded, it has a sand pit and yard-sized Jenga type blocks, there is an axe-throwing "structure" on site which is unique, a small deck where live music artists play, and the inside is a bit small but I assume that's not their main focus. I knocked off a star for service. The girl at the front taking our order, although friendly, may have been newish it seemed as she didn't know the answer to some questions, which is no big deal, but they got our order wrong in two ways- they left out the fruit snacks on the kids meal and the coleslaw on my sandwich. Again, not a huge deal, but with not a huge menu I wouldn't think 2 things would be missed. The food was delicious though, even the sides! Between our friends and us, we ordered and tried a few types of things on the menu, even the deserts, and I'd say it all tasted pretty good. I would would recommend the hatch macaroni, green beans, and any of the meats- they were all moist with great flavor. We will definitely be visiting again!"

"First time and we got it to go but it's the best brisket we've had all over! Great menu selection and the sauce to top it of was delicious. Will definitely be back! I can't understand why there wasn't traffic tonight but I don't mind."

"It's my first time ordering Agape & to-go for dinner, too! From the brisket & regula sausage to their beans, potato salad & coleslaw. Each item was delicious with great flavor! Do expect a decent price depending on the amount you get. I ordered enough to feed 6 people, which came to about $117. I will definitely be back with great food & such friendly staff!"

"I am shocked at the high reviews on this place. I’ve lived in Texas my whole life and I’ve eaten lots of barbecue and this is the worst I’ve ever had. We ordered a 3 meat plate with moist brisket, ribs & sausage and pinto beans and hatch mac & cheese as our sides. The brisket was the furthest thing from moist. It had the texture of beef jerky and I guess the big chunk of fat on it was supposed to qualify it as moist? Huge missed mark on this. The ribs were decent, nothing special but the most edible thing on the plate. The sausage was horrible. It had zero smokiness and tasted like boiled hot dogs. We wanted creamy corn casserole and sweet garlic green beans. They were out of both. We ended up with the “mac & cheese” which I put in quotes because it was literally dry gummy noodles (pic included). We threw it in the trash. Worst mac and cheese I’ve ever had. The beans weren’t terrible, just pinto beans with some pieces of brisket way too much pepper and no other flavor profile. I think the low point was the bbq sauce. I gagged when I tasted it. Cumin and chili powder does not belong in bbq sauce. That was nauseating. The highlight of this place is the setting. Super cute there and they had a band so atmosphere is 5/5 and food is 0/5. I would give .5 for the pickles because they were the best thing we ate."
