I enjoyed this version of the "build-your-own" concept: protein + base + "style". The protein (or veggie alternatives) were tasty. There were several bases that allow for different types of meals - bun, salad, tortilla, rice, and chips. The styles were all in the south/south-west flavor profile (bbq, Tex-mex, So-Cal...)Our family of four all enjoyed what we ordered - from southwest smash burger, to beef fajita rice bowl, and BBQ brisket nachos. We also enjoyed the beer battered fried ribs (a bit over the top with a TX fair-like feel)It's not cheap - but what is in this area? No complaints about service or atmosphere.

Let's talk about Overhyped based on reviews and glorified chipotle.Busy sunday afternoon when all the restaurants around this restaurant are fully packed and this place only has one other table should be an immediate red flag. But our curiosity based on reviews and menu options got us to decide on this place.We seated ourselves as place was basically empty. Ordered Rattlesnake Bites(corn), chips and queso and waffle fried with Mojo mayo!For the main course, 4 of us got different entrees.I got the smashed burger with hill country on bed of nachos, my wife is vegetarian so she got the grilled avocado with Fajita Cantina on bowl of buttered lime rice.Our friends got Brisket on hacienda and then had switch it to hill country as the hacienda had tomatoes in queso and bowl of buttered lime rice and smoked chicken with buttered lime rice.None of the entries had any flavor. Hill country tasted like only BBQ sauce and there was not even a hint of mole.Brisket was fine but damp rice made the entree subparGrilled avocado wqs grilled and again the rice was damp. Smoked Chicken was hard as well.Appetizers were the only good part of experience.Waitress stopped by and asked us if everything was good, my wife said food was mediocre. There was nothing done to make it right.I managed to finish mine but rest of them left the restaurant without finishing and hungry.14$+ for an entree and it lacked anything to write about. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone for the food or service.

We were in the mood for bbq one night however it was getting late and all the major bbq spots were closing soon so I looked this place up on Yelp. It's not traditional bbq but they do have a couple options on the menu. I ordered the brisket pile of nachos and hubby had the beer battered fried ribs. His ribs were really good and my nachos were just ok. They did give a nice portion but nothing wowed me, the cocktails were pretty standard too. Our server was nice and attentive, but nothing stood out here to make me come back again. The only thing I'd recommend are the ribs if you do try this restaurant!

We dined here one evening. When we arrived, they said we could be seated and someone would come help us. It took several minutes, but we finally placed drink orders. There was mainly one server for dining area and a bar server. We asked some questions about menu and ordered. We chose our options which ranged from burger, tacos, and waffle fries with the toppings selected. The food was pretty good. The waffle fries & toppings weren't as flavorful but decent. Smash burger was pretty good...service was fine but not quick.

Saw this spot opened up and have been wanting to try it! Glad I did! First off the staff behind the counter were so hospitable and made GREAT recommendations! Also they have a kids menu so bring the kids! Food was phenomenal! I ordered the deep fried ribs and mayo fries as my meal and my wife got the brisket nachos with queso! There is a lot to be said for the queso! Flavors galore! Everything appears to be made from scratch and the ribs were so tender and juicy and drizzled with 6666 ranch BBQ sauce! Ambiance is fantastic and we sat outside on this beautiful fall Texas day! There's a full bar that's half outside and in. We will definitely be back on a date night. Y'all have to try this place out!!!

We came for lunch, and tried several items on the menu. The Hill Country Smoked Chicken Rice Bowl made of Slow Smoked Chicken Thighs on a bed of buttered lime rice topped with Cheddar Cheese, Chopped Dill Pickles, Southern Slaw, Chopped fresh Jalapeno, White Onion and drizzled with House-made Mole BBQ Sauce was the best dish we tried. The Gringo Smash burger with a side of pork rinds was juicy and flavorful as well. We were taken care of quick, but it was also lunch time and not too busy.

Good service and atmosphere for a fast casual concept. We tried brisket fajita tacos and a socal chicken bowl. The brisket was quite salty with little flavor from the toppings. The chicken did not have much of a smoked or bbq flavor and did not blend with the rice, though it tasted quite good. Slaw was OK but heavy and not very flavorful.

I recently ate at the Kickback BBQ in the late afternoon. The restaurant has very trendy decor with a nice looking bar in the middle. The menu was very interested and I ordered the Burnt End Vaca Frita & The Ranch Hand as a drink. The Burnt End Vaca Frita (I rate it a 2 out of 5) was too salty - specifically, the burnt ends and Quebano mayo were too salty. However, I did enjoy the sweet plantains that were added to the bowl. Additionally, I was not a fan of the Ranch Hand drink because I had to mix it myself and the agave syrup was a bit overwhelming in the drink. It would have been better if the drink was mixed by the bartender vs served "in parts" that you have to mix at the table.

My husband and I recently visited KickBack BBQ in Plano, TX, and loved the whole experience, from the fun, relaxed atmosphere to our very delicious meal. You should definitely check this new place out. It combines all the scrumptiousness of fabulous barbecue with the greatness of Mexican food. Such unique combinations, and the options are endless. They will serve any meat on their menu with any type of bread: tortilla, bun, etc., or even on a waffle. The menu suggests several great options, but they will customize it to your liking. The sides are equally amazing. And for dessert, the Dr. Pepper cake is not to be missed! It is truly one of the best chocolate cakes we've ever tasted. If you're too full, order at least one piece anyway and share it with your date. Better yet, order separate pieces and bring some home!Also, can't say enough about the stellar service we received. The staff could not be friendlier or more accommodating!Five stars and two thumbs up!!!
