“ The BBQ is good. All of their sides are good too. The pit is a must see and take a selfie with! The only thing that I was surprised by is that they do not offer a military discount, even on Memorial Day weekend. We went here with a 28 year Marine veteran and his family of six and when they asked about a military discount we were told no, they don’t offer any type of discount. That won’t deter us from going in the future. Just wanted people to know if they’re hoping for a discount. ”
“ This place is so iconic Texas Hill country. The perfect addition to amazing BBQ, amazing Texas wine. Melissa was great helping me and my wife find the right glass, and ultimately bottle of wine. There are so many beautiful places to sit and enjoy a glass and some great company. ”
“ Don't bother going anywhere else...okay, maybe do, but just so that you can understand just how good the BBQ is here. Everything is exceptional, but the best has to be the pork ribs. They were basically like candy on a bone - so flavorful and tender and delicious! Their slaw is also a bit different, no mayo base (big win for me) and has a really tasty tang to it. Anything you order is sure to be a hit - and don't forget it's BYOB, so bring your cooler and your favorite beverage ... and if you do forget, that's alright they have a winery on site that will also sell you beer to go as well. ”
“ This was a great experience for us Since I don't normally like bbq sauce and this is the only bbq sauce I eat not too sweet and a hint of spice it’s perfect! I had to come to where everything was founded and I loved it Food was delicious endless sauce for me !! Once we finished lunch went over the vineyard cellar and had myself a salt lick sweet red glass of wine. It was the perfect ending for this visit I am definitely coming back ”

“ Went there with Husband for a lunch on a Saturday. Loved the ambience and service. Our server was very helpful and interacted with us with a lovely smile on her face. We tried brisket, beef ribs and half-&-half cobbler. Everything was so amazing We have decided to go to this place every time we visit Austin. ”
“ Great food and service at a memorable, beautiful location. Celebrated a family reunion for Dad's birthday here, ranging in age from 5-yo to 89-yo. Everyone had a great time together and a delicious meal. Natilee took great care of us, as our server, handling our group of 13 on a busy Saturday afternoon. I will definitely be back to try more of their menu! ”
