This place is a fantastic family-run restaurant, and I'm really glad they're still in business. I was a bit surprised by the prices, especially $3.25 for a large sweet tea, which feels a bit steep. Still, I'd much rather dine here than at any other BBQ joint in Austin!

I was truly impressed by how amazing this place is! The brisket was undoubtedly the best I’ve ever had—even better than my own! The ribs were excellent as well, and the staff couldn’t have been friendlier. If I lived nearby, I would absolutely come here all the time! Additionally, it’s ideal for a quick lunch since you can easily grab your food and go, no matter how much time you have!

The sausage in my sausage wrap was quite dry, but I did enjoy the brisket sandwich and the small potato salad. The bottle of root beer was nice as well. However, given the overall experience, I'm not sure if I would return for the $20 price.

Please note that prices can fluctuate frequently. I ordered a three-meat meal and received one rib, half a link of sausage, and two slices of brisket for $23. The potato salad was overly mushy, and the corn was tough. I suggest considering other options for a more satisfying meal. Additionally, the customer service was lacking.

Another hidden Austin Gem. I have been everywhere in town for BBQ and have driven to Memphis in May for comparison ; Amazing brisket and sausage all the time! Support old school Austin when you get a chance by stopping here. Thank you Vic's family and staff for great food every time!
