Southside Market & Barbeque - Austin at Arbor Walk

Never disappoints anytime I come here.Always make a point to come here every time I am in town. Service always good. Place always clean.Always friendly no matter what time of day I come in. Food always fresh and taste good every time

Today as usual I ordered a pound of original sliced sausage with crackers and iced tea and it was served fresh quickly and the meal was great. I've been going to southside market for years always great fresh and tasty bbq and never a line.Come try authentic Texas bbq your won't be disappointed but don't forget the banana pudding it's great.

It's not that the food is bad or that the staff isn't friendly it's just ... there are so many more bbq places that are just better. The burnt ends were good as was the sausage but I just feel like everything was better at Rudy's, Terry blacks or Franklin's. If you go and haven't had any of the others it will still taste good the staff are still nice and probably my favorite part was that they have prepackaged sausages ready to go. Those were probably my favorite thing there.

I'm surprised this place doesn't have a better rating. Upon landing in the Austin airport from Chicago, I asked the guy at the rental car company to recommend a good barbecue place. This is where he sent me, and I was not disappointed. That combo sandwich (brisket and sausage)... wow! After a couple of bites, I forgot where I was! I practically had an out of body experience (it was that amazing)!

Look, the brisket is good at Southside, and a quarter pound sandwich tops the scales at maybe twice that, so they don't skimp on meat.... But there is plenty of good brisket in Texas. The reason to come here is the traditional Elgin Hot Sausage, made of beef, and called Hot Guts by the old timers. On the half shell... on a cracker, slathered with the old time pepper vinegar hit sauce... Will transport you to a time and place with your grandpa while he was playing moons and 42 at the Green Frog Cafe. It's just... Texas, dammit. It's taking a bite out of our collective history!

Southside is good for what it is -- a casual bbq spot with low lines, decent food and no fuss. I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend it, but I've also still come back multiple times. They accommodate gluten allergies and will cut meat with fresh gloves and a clean cutting board which is appreciated -- but not many options are actually gluten free. I'll mainly just get the brisket and a bag of chips, which is a pretty plain meal...but it still hits the spot nonetheless, when that's what I'm craving.

I'm not a BBQ pit master by any means, but this was not up to par. Southside missed the mark on the smoky and bold flavors making this our least of all BBQ joints in the Austin and surrounding areas. All in all, food was bland and lacked that deep, smoked face punch to our taste buds we've all come to expect from Texas BBQ. My apologies for the not-so-good review, Southside.

I was in town for Afro Tech and had to get some TX Style BBQ before I left. I saw this place on Uber Eats and decided to give em a shot! For starters, I love how everything was packaged up. The meats came wrapped in Paper and other items in separate Styrofoam containers.My favorite item was the Jalapeno/Bacon/Cheddar Sausage and the Ribs and loaded baked potato were amazing as well! My pictures below will show what I ate. I couldn't eat it all in 1 sitting so I tripple bagged it and placed it in my Checked Bag and had it for lunch the next day in Atlanta :). My only cons were both BBQ sauces tasted a bit bland and could use more flavor. I ordered the Bold and Hot Vinegar and neither tasted like the name.

If you're a vegetarian, you can have a potatoes, salad, pickles or soda. Otherwise, go somewhere else! Service was very friendly though!

I do not normally eat out. But I had a gift card to use. I had the gift card since December. I did not know that it would depreciate the longer i waited to use it.I am biased on bbq. I grew up in a bbq place, so my stands are VERY high. Sub par bbq, the sauce taste like vinegar, the beans contained pork- I know it gives flavor, but pork is disgusting and unclean. I was completely unimpressed and feel I wasted money.
