Ordered a 2 meat plate to try the brisket and sausage, with a side of potato salad and green beans. The sides were the star of the meal. Good potato salad and green beans, but the meat was mediocre. Brisket was dry and bland, and not much smokiness. Sausage tasted generic but decent. It didn't compare to the famous Texas bbq joints sausage. Service was slow for lunch, and the place needs updated.

Martins BBQ has been around since I was a child and I am 67 now. It had the best BBQ then and still does. My daughter and I went last weekend and it was the best as always. Love it and we will be going back, for sure. I recommend highly.

Came here several times during my childhood and stopped by a few months ago. I'm so glad I did! I enjoyed talking to the waitress. The food is true, authentic southeast central Texas barbecue- if you want the fancy bells and whistles, just go to Austin. I would like to emphasize "authentic"... this is the OLDEST restaurant in BCS, therefore the amenities are NATURALLY going to reflect that! If you can't use a restroom unless it's less than 5 years old and looks like it came out of a Southern Living magazine, then you're out of luck in that department. Martin's ROUTINELY scores a 100 on their health department inspections (available on KBTX), so I'll let those numbers speak for themselves and enjoy some delicious brisket while I'm at it!

This was a place we stopped for brisket on the way home from the Coast. I enjoyed the old diner atmosphere. The food was pretty good. It was priced at a great value. That was very Appreciated.

This place is questionable when you arrive. The restaurant is small and old. The toilets are outside but not an outhouse. However, the food was delicious and the owner was very nice.
Pull up and support one of BCS’ longest standing BBQ joints. Best BBQ in cstat in my opinion. Great prices. Nice staff. Sauce is a vinegar base which isn’t my favorite but I can’t stay away. Get in here and experience the tradition of Martin’s Place BBQ

This place is the best! The ultimate hole-in-the-wall. You have to get the Aggie (the owner's husband invented it!)The space is in need of repairs but that's what gives it some charm. We talked with the owner and she was very nice, told us some stories about Martin's over the years.

Came in here with a friend that recommended it. Definitely a old place. Still has the old horseshoe bar. Lots of old pictures of the place and Aggie pictures. It smelled the smoke from pit inside that I thought was great. Service was good. Very friendly. I ordered the sliced brisket sandwich. Pretty much just brisket on a regular hamburger bun. Brisket had a good smoke flavor. A lil on the dry side for me as I had to put sauce on it. Overall everything was good. Cool old place.

Very awesome almost hole in the wall BBQ place with it's own historical marker. So much about this unique location from the atmosphere, friendly family that runs it and not to mention the awesome BBQ!

Great historical BBQ joint in Bryan. Prices are very reasonable and you can't beat the old school environment. Smokes stained walls.
