We drove from Richmond, Texas to get the beef ribs since my wife and I remember them being incredible. Well, they were incredible and memorable this time--INCREDIBLY BAD!!!! The ribs were COLD as in being at room temperature and they had a burnt flavor to them. I know the difference between having a crust on them and being burnt. I sent the first ones back to get a second batch. They were the same way-COLD. We also had a salad from their salad bar. The eggs were rubbery. In fact, I dropped some of them tray and table and they bounced like a piece of rubber. My wife commented the food tasted like it was old. She also noticed no one had gotten the ribs so she thought they were all left-overs from the day before. We ordered a hamburger for my son and told them not to do the kidâs burger. Unfortunately, I did not look at the ticket to see they actually gave him a kidâs burger. My son really wanted their mac -n- cheese as a side so I got it for him. After a few bites, he was sorry he asked for it as it tasted bad to him. The entire experience was so bad we agreed never to go again. We thought this experience would have been better than the previous experience we had earlier and it turned out to be very similar. Joeâs might have been good years ago, yet now it is nothing like it was. There are many BBQ places in and around Houston so we will not miss not going to Joeâs again.

Nice smaller place typical of the cafeteria style in Texas. Service was excellent food not so much. Our brisket was rather bland and tough. Definitely not up to par with other places in the area that we have tried. Looks like a nice place for the locals with the diner/bar atmosphere.
4. Greak's Smokehouse
Reviewed By Unhappydinner2014
I was very disappointed. The meat, particularly the brisket was very dry. The chef/salesman was very pushy,we asked for a half chicken and he put two halves in our bag. He asked if we wanted barbecue sauce and thinking it was complimentary we said sure and then he tried putting a $5 small jar of sauce in our bag. Pricing seemed ad lib, he charged us $48 for a smoked dried chicken, 1/4 lb of dry brisket and 2 sausage links, nothing was weighed. We will not revisit this place, I'd rather go to Rudy's.
