Loving the freshness and great tasting south Texas flavors. Our new favorite spot! #Htown
We made our first visit yesterday and my family loved it! Everything was delicious! My favorites were the brisket & sausage. Definitely earns the title for best brisket in town! And huge serving sizes so you get great value and worth every penny. The owner was so kind and welcoming. Definitely recommend! 😋
