My son and I chose this place because it was close to our hotel. We decided to go in and ask for a menu to see if it was something we wanted or not. The 1st lady we talked to was very helpful but simultaneously I there was a slightly older woman who was abrasive and short in her interactions with customers. She wasn’t the worst person in the world but it was very noticeable. We boughtt 2 4 meat platters that each came with 2 sides. My son got the ribs, turkey, chicken and brisket w/ green beans and Mac & cheese. He did not enjoy the green beans as they were vinegary, but love the assortment of meat. I had the ribs, brisket, chicken and sausage. The chicken and ribs were delicious. The briskets was middle of the road and the sausage was the same. I got the “Cajun “ potato salad which was hardly Cajun just a lot of mustard and the fried okra was delicious! I would go back but only as a last option. I even asked the unfriendly woman for another small bbq sauce and she replied “usually it’s an extra charge but I’ll see if there’s still some out.” I mean we were there only ones there and it was about to close… not a good way to make and keep customers. Very clean place and roomy with at least one tv on. I guess it just depends on how you value customer service.

This location is definitely better than the La Marque location. Their food is significantly better in both quality and taste.Parking: Lots of parking.

I got the twice baked potato with bbq pork. The mild sauce is ok but thin. The twice baked potato was bland -meh -with bacon bits, not real bacon. Employees very nice. Food ready quickly. Better than fast food but barely.

Pretty gross, the only thing worth a dang is the fries. But how can you mess that up? Lady seemed miserable and irritated... way over priced.

I ordered through Uber eats, the loaded baked potato was absolutely disgusting, I also got a 2 meat plate (sausage and ribs with Mac and cheese for both sides) the Mac and cheese was gross it had no flavor and it was very sticky feeling while in your mouth and I didn’t like that either. This places food should not even be called BBQ because of it is this is the hands down worst tasting BBQ I’ve ever had. Also is was definitely overpriced for the quality of the food.And this review is coming from a White Texas born woman who knows how to season food properly. Please do better!!

After church, I had been craving a sliced beef sandwich with Potato Salad. I was headed home, and decided to stop here. I am Super, Uber glad I did. This place is very, very nice and clean inside. TV's to watch every different Sports Major win there. The Food was DELICIOUS !! OMG! You have got to try this place. There were other people there, atmosphere friendly, and did I mention the Food? Get over there as soon as you can. I was not disappointed at all.. Texas Pit Stop, I will be back next Sunday, after church ❤❤

Food did not look or taste appealing. I should have walked away when I walked in and saw they didn't have any business. Food is definitely over priced. The cashier was nice. Will definitely not be going back. Oh and I should have known something when I walked up and didn't have the BBQ smell lol. It didn't even taste like oven

The atmosphere is very open, feels and looks clean and has a beautifully painted back wall that could be a great photo opp. It was my first time and was a bit flustered from errands and rushing around. Despite me being a hot mess, the lady who took my order, was very kind. LolThe food? Omg. Yes. Just. Eat. Now. Lol you're welcome haha

New to the area for 3 weeks thus far, we've tried 3 bbq restaurants thus far & hands down, the Texas Pit Stop Texas City Mall of the Mainland location wins. In fact, I've had a rib plate & my roommate the chopped beef sandwich 6 times, would have been 8 if they didn't close so early. That's an average of $50 a meal with sides. HOWEVER, it cost a $1 to save them from having to have an employee to answer the phone to take a togo order, by ordering online, then it discretely adds a tip that you really have to watch out for to adjust before checking out. And, when I ordered pickup online via my phone on July 11th, my order was charged a 20% tip, $9.59 on top of the $1 online order fee for me to save them time on the phone, drive to the restaurant, & get out in the heat to pick up an order with no special requests! I may have missed the discrete adding of the tip, but honestly didn't see a choice to change it or opt out on my phone. When I called immediately upon the new total showing what was being charged to my card, the girl that answered the phone at the restaurant said that I would have to contact the online service they used to get the tip taken off, but had no idea of who or what that service was or how to contact them. I would have been happy if the restuarant had given me a gift card for the tip amount for future use, but no such offer; in fact, the girl on the phone was totally unconcerned. So, now I will have to get my bank involved & will never provide them with the convienence of an online order again. The unresolved issue is why I took 3 stars off of what would have been a 5 star rating, to hopefully save others from the same sneaky expense.
