Texas D Willies Smokehouse

The food was absolutely delicious! We asked for lean brisket and it was amazingly moist. The ribs were just as delicious with the meat falling off the bone. The sausage and chicken were just as tasty!

For something that's AYCE, it's pretty darn good! We all opted for their AYCE BBQ cuz how can you not pass the chance on some TX BBQ?Firstly of all, their AYCE, you honestly CAN'T beat this deal for AYCE Texas BBQ! $27/person!! So yeah, TELL ME! We came here for my husbands 40th birthday mainly cuz of his favorite band the Doobie Brothers song "China Grove" since this location is located in China Grove haha... we got seated pretty quickly at around 5-530, the hostess/waitresses were really nice and helpful! They got orders out in a timely manner which is much appreciated with a hungry young kid hahaFood: I ordered their brisket, ribs and chicken, with green beans and Mac and cheese to start. Some of the meats I've enjoyed were their brisket and chicken! Super tender and flavorful! Sausage was pretty on point too! Their steak was ok, a little on the dryer side but it was ok. Also... if you did do AYCE and just got so dang full just from the first round, they'll just knock off the AYCE price and just give you the reduced plated price for your order. So don't fret! But also... if you do AYCE you can't to-go any leftovers, they will remind you about that!Parking, seemed plenty, large rows to parking and room for trucks.Ambiance: just like your typical Texas saloon vibe, cozy and all but with ample seating, but at least we got there within a timeframe that wasn't extremely busy so that helped haha. Overall, would come back again!

This review is mainly about their half pound brisket sandwich. For the past four months I've met a friend at this Dee Willie's location in China Grove once a month and I always order the brisket sandwich and ask for the marbled, or fatty, slices of meat. The first one was spectacular. It was juicy, smoky, tender, and had great flavor. Since that first one, it's as if they ignored my request so I ended up with the lean and dry sliced meat. A really good brisket doesn't need barbecue sauce but today's brisket sandwich did. I was very disappointed with the meat but the bread for the sandwich they served was very tasty. As for the service, it's always good and the waiter was very polite and attentive, and the place is very clean. If my friend and I go back there, I'll have to insist on the marbled brisket and see what happens. Hopefully it will be like that first brisket sandwich I had.

Clean, western style dining. I love the spool tables. The staff were very attentive. They were sadly out of chicken and turkey and the chef came out with his apologies. The brisket sliced and chopped was so tender. The sausage and sides were really good. I love that the plate came with jalapeños. I'm a fan of the green beans and the beans were excellent. My husband loved the baked potato salad. There is a fee for using credit just as a warning. We were prepared with cash.

The food was okay - the mac & cheese has very little cheese, kinda tasted like wet noodles. I like my BBQ'd sausage to have a lil snap to it when I bite into it & I like my brisket to have a flavorful bark. But that wasn't the case for my lunch here. The food makes for a 2 star experience, but the service was awesome. Our serve hustled from table to table and we never had to wait long for anything.

This place sooo good! Quick service, good music, and delicious food. The ribs are soooo tender. My hubby always gets the brisket sandwich, which is also really good. They used to have really good banana pudding, but somethings changed so I'm not too hot on it anymore. But, the sweet potatoes are a dessert in its self, so it's a win win! Mac is also pretty good. My only complaint- it's always freezing in there! Bring a sweater lol

We had been passing this location for some time and finally had enough time to stop. It is easy to get to and has plenty of parking. The place's decor is nice and fitting for a BBQ joint. Nothing spectacular happened but nothing bad either.The BBQ was good but not enough for me to go out of the way to go back due to the area having so many other options. I saw other reviews that said the brisk was moist, but ours was dry. The ribs weren't bad and I got the loaded baked potato. In all, I would recommend this restaurant because everyone likes different kinds of BBQ and this might be your joint!

We hadn't been here in a while but was definitely fantastic as always. The loaded baked potato was so good and filling! I got it with sausage but the brisket looked good too. My little got sausage tacos. The banana pudding was delicious although did taste a bit different than I remember. The service was quick and friendly. The restaurant itself is always clean but be prepared to leave smelling of bbq smoke. Perks of great bbq joints!

Always fantastic service as well as food. We are regulars. Food is always good. My favorite is the loaded brisket potato. Their sweet potato casserole is amazing as well.The owners are nice & wonderful. Especially the wife.

Slow service..small place can't accommodate larger parties of 10+..plan accordingly for a long wait.
