Priced like a top tier bbq place like truth or pit room, but worse than chain places like Pappas. The brisket was dry, the "moist" was inedible, the sides seemed like they were right out of a can. The staff were nice and the smoked turkey was ok, so it's 2 star not 1, but there are MUCH better places at this price point and even below it. The ambiance is lacking too.

My wife picked up some good Q' since she was right next door. A half pound each of brisket and pork ribs hit the spot. The fried okra is close to a necessity for me when I'm eating BBQ and they do it well. Nice little spot near the neighborhood.

Haven't been here in a long time due to moving across town. Was in area and popped in and was very pleased at, well, everything! The restaurant is clean and maintained, everyone was friendly and the portion sizes are huge. I grabbed a brisket potato and was shocked at how large it is. Definitely matches the price tag, which is aligned with most bbq places, some of which give you less food for these prices. I'll definitely be stopping in anytime I'm over here!

I'm guessing the old Hickory is going down soon. They even charged .80cents for two slices of bread.

Excellent customer service / I've ordered from this place many times before and they consistently execute on getting the order right and providing high quality food for a reasonable price. I recommend the brisket baked potatoe, so good!

Huge portions. The loaded baked potato can feed an army. Well maybe not an army but it will be enough for 2-3 meals. The two meat plate I had was a lot of meat too, very good pork and beef. The potato salad was fantastic. We'll be coming back again soon!

We ordered the brisket baker and chopped brisket bun. Both were yummy and filling. If your looking for Al's school barbecue, this is a great option.

So I have been here a few times and they have always been good. Today, they were off their game. The BBQ beans were hot but crusty. It tasted like they did not know if they were making chili or baked beans and decided to do a mix. The pulled pork was very dry. The sausage was off and not crispy. The chicken fried steak was good enough, but was premade, frozen- like the kind you would get a school lunch. Not worth the price, in my opinion. The kids chicken strips were good. The corn was great. The pickles tasted old and stale. The people are always friendly and today was the same. I'm not going to score them harshly based on the food today, but if I am honest, had this been my first time, there probably would not have been a second. The peach cobbler was excellent. The restaurant was clean and the bathrooms were clean and well stocked. They are kid friendly and they have a nice sized dining area. I wish the chicken fried steak was better. I have been looking for a good chicken fried steak in Houston and can still say that I have not found one. I hope today was just a "one off" because my past experiences here have all been much better.

Been coming here for years. Fries are always fresh and the barbecue is good consistently. Most importantly, my kids will all eat it!
