Service was great even though I did take out they were polite and fast . Food was great especially the ribs and brisket, not a big fan of the sausage but it was ok. Potato salad was good as well as the coleslaw

Went at lunch time, food was taken to-go. Will come back because even at a busy time, the service was fast.Like the bbq sauce included, 4/5 sweet with a lil kickCollard greens was just okay, could use more seasoning 2/5.Macaroni and cheese was very good, baked and creamy cheese flavor 4/5Brisket - tender and seasoning was okay 3.5/5Smoked turkey - could also use more seasoning as well but so tender, could eat this everyday 4/5Rib tips - very tender but no real smoke taste. Don't think it was boiled but it missing that real bbq taste. 3/5Will definitely come back because close to my job and I'm curious to try other things on that menu. Turkey and macaroni will make come back for sure

I went to Southern Q last week! Customer service was great! Wait time was not long for food! The ordering process wasn't difficult but they were just out of everything! Which is a good sign and let's you know business is booming but there wasn't a lot of selections! One of the waiters did explain there was corporate party earlier that day. I ordered peach cobbler and it was not good at ALL!! it tasted Burned! I could only get the sausage sandwich for myself and my friend was able to get the " big papa " they expressed there was enough meat to maybe make one. The fries I got with my sandwich tasted like chopped potatoes that soaked in oil. I couldn't finish them. So I decided to get a bag of chips but the chip bag was expired after I ate half of the chips I realized on the way home. The layout of the restaurant is nice! Plenty of seating and enough parking on a private lot! It's very homey! I'll definitely return just not soon.

First things first.... You're here 'cause you want BBQ. So first the food.... GREAT BBQ!! Phenomenal flavor. The briquette didn't seem to be your classic Texas Salt, Pepper, Smoke but VERY good. Great bark on the meat, tender, moist, and really flavorful. The Cajun sausage was so tasty. And when you add the spicy bbq sauce? Crazy good.... The ribs were tender, flavorful and also has a really nice bark. And now for the sides... we had the green beans, Cajun rice (dirty rice), and fried okra. The greens beans were wonderful - tender and so flavorful. Reminded me of my Texas grandma's. And that lady could cook.... The Cajun rice was on point. If you like dirty rice, you'll REALLY like theirs. I guarantee. The star of the evening though was the fried okra. Seriously. It practically outshined the bbq meats themselves! It was wonderfully crispy on the outside and soft on the inside - as it should be, btw. But what made it shine was that it was tastefully seasoned. Just salty enough that it was like eating Lays potato chips. You CANNOT eat just one. Okay... now for service: everyone was so friendly and accommodating. The staff were there to serve and be helpful in any way they could be. Even though you order and then go sit, they came by multiple times to check on us offering more of whatever we needed. The ambiance is great as well. It's not a huge dining room (see pics) but very comfortable. They nailed the South/East Texas vibe which matched the south TX/Louisiana bbq flavors note for note. That's a long review but to sum up, GREAT experience, GREAT flavors, reasonably priced. We'll be back. Do yourself a favor, go get ya some SouthernQ!!

I hate when I find places like this. I know I'm going back despite rejections and objections from my frugal meter. My New Orleans soul wants to find good food that is really inexpensive. I know that our social climate has made meat prices skyrocket over the last few years...but a vegetarian lifestyle is not fat man friendly. I go to this place and they have a constant group of people coming in and out. That's a good sign. I saw all racial groups in here... that's another really good sign. I saw a board on the ground that had specials on it...my frugal meter really liked seeing that!Any meat based place is going to make me frugal meter scream...and this place was no different. I wondered if the pricing was going to match the taste...well... I'll tell you this:1. These people are really friendly and professional. I think the purposely hire all cute ladies! One lady said she was the owner, but she looked like an Instagram model...I think they are making certain males come back my having a good looking staff and good looking food. 2. This food is not the type of food that will spike your vitals and having your primary care physician scoffing at you. The food has light seasoning so you can enjoy the food and enjoy it often. This is a bbq joint and they didn't even try to hide behind a bbq sauce... which the bbq sauce was really delicious. They gave it to me as a side dipping sauce. The boudin even had a nice flavor with a slight spice kick at the end. It's a good Texas take on a Louisiana staple. I like the addition of firecracker crackers to enjoy the item. Even the homemade pound cake with lemon icing was not overly sweet. You can eat that with no guilt creeping in. 3. If you dine in, you have access to unlimited refills on your drink. All in all, this friendly staff will provide you with good eats. If you already are used to paying the prices for bbq now and days, you will have minimal complaints here. Despite my frugal meter yelling when I go there, I'll just hope their frequent eater program can give me the discounts I think will be needed to make my frugal meter pipe down! Go here and tell me what you think of the place.

I only go to two barbecue restaurants in Houston. This is one of them. I love their Thursday and Friday specials. I love their brisket ribs baked potato baked beans. I can go on and on about their menu and let me not forget about the turkey legs on Fridays and Saturdays, the services always good and the restaurant ambience is very casual as you would expect from a barbecue restaurant

I'm glad that a recent Yelp event showcased this place, or I may have kept passing it by. It's a modest little spot off Richey Rd. near I-45, so it can be easy to miss... But, once you find the building and pull into the driveway you'll probably notice a packed parking lot, indicating that they have a loyal following.I stumbled by (dinner to go) after a long weekend, not realizing at first that it was just a few minutes shy of their closing hour on Sunday evening. Even so close to the bell, they were very busy, so I expected some items to be sold out. I ordered a sampling of chopped brisket and Cajun sausage, with a side of mac & cheese... The brisket wasn't anything remarkable (quite dry to be honest), but the sausage had just the right amount of kick and the creamy, stick-to-the-top-of-your-mouth mac was gooey perfection. The menu has tons of variety, including boudain, turkey legs, and oxtails... So, I'm sure I'll be back to try other items!

PSA: SouthernQ still slaps. That's right, I'm updating my review from last year after grabbing a few items for dinner last night. Their brisket bark is still craveable, offering a smoky, peppery, flavorful shell for the juicy meat beneath. The greens are still to my personal vinegar preference, and this time I splurged on the both the cornbread and grilled corn- worth it. This time, a family member picked up our meal, but if you've yet to meet the owners, you really haven't tried this spot. While the food is good, the warm hospitality is better!While we all have dozens of bbq options to consider, if you've yet to visit this one, you're missing out!

My wife and I hired Southern Q to cater the rehearsal party for our son's wedding at our home this month. We entertained 30-40 guests outside under the carport. From the time that my wife first spoke to them, to the day of the event, we could not have been happier! They met our every need! Not only was the food outstanding, but so was the service! Pleasant people who went above and beyond to make sure that everyone had more than enough to eat. The BB-Q brisket, chicken and sausage was some of the best that I have ever had here in Houston. All of the side dishes were terrific as well. Darn good deserts also! Everyone at the party could not stop commenting on how good the food was. We would recommend Southern-Q to everyone!
