J. Cody's Steak and Barbeque

This wasca very nice quiet restaurant but of course the students are gone right now. The food was great. Our server was very friendly and helpful. This was our first visit ever to this restaurant. Definitely will be back!

Yesterday was my first visit to J. Cody's. We were greeted and seated immediately, and I really liked the atmosphere of the restaurant. The jalapeño cornbread was excellent. Also got the basket with fried Okra, onions, and French fries. Said it included squash, but we didn't see only but a couple of pieces of it. It took a long time for the food to come out, despite the place not being busy and I was hoping to see steam come off the food, but sadly it looked like it had been sitting out awhile.

I got the 3 meat plate with marbled brisket, chopped brisket, jalapeño sausage, and the corn and mac and cheese. The brisket was very dry, and the chopped looked like they used the oldest brisket available that had been sitting out. I struggled to swallow the brisket; no flavor, and it was so dry I had to pour bbq sauce on it to get it down. The chopped was so bad I gave up on it and left it. The sausage and sides were good, but didn't seem fresh. Would have been better if the food came out hot.

Our server was nice, but she never checked on us or asked how everything was. We were thanked by employees when we left. Not sure if the restaurant was just having a bad day, as even their payment system wasn't working well from what our waitress told us. My suggestions would include not sending out food that is not hot or does not meet a standard of excellence, changing the preparation of the brisket, and to always check on the tables and ask how everything is. If they fix those 3 things, then I would be willing to come back and give it another shot. Regardless, I desire this review to serve constructively, and I wish them and their team the very best.

Great service, food and atmosphere. Good amount of food for the price.

Took a half hour for the food to show up. And everything was blaaaaand.

As for as first impressions go this place wasn’t it, came for Mother’s Day. Walking in the door I was feeling the vibe but after the first few minutes I realized that there really was no host, after being sat it felt like the waitress had forgotten about us or no one told her we were in her section. My wife and her mom had the chicken fried steaks, both seemed to enjoy their food. I ordered a BBQ burger but there was nothing bbq about it, the patty itself was fine but there was no cheese or any semblance of bbq sauce. It was a basic grilled union burger. I normally don’t get bothered by bad experiences at restaurants but this was something special, maybe I caught them on a bad day but I think I’ll take my business elsewhere.

Great place

CALL IT LIKE I SEE IT! Dont be fooled by the pictures. This place is 🗑. I ordered the brisket plate. Where I'm from in Texas, you serve brisket with bark! That's where the flavor is. They served us the left over cuts🤨. Also I didn't even order jalapeños and they mixed jalapeños with my pickels and onions. Maybe they assumed I wanted jalapeños. The empty parking lot should have been a sign. I'm definitely gonna spread the word and will never return.

Spent 29.00 for 3 slices of brisket,3 small ribs and peach cobbler. The brisket was good but they could of kept the rest.

We were glad the first two stops were sub par others we would have missed out. Great food and attentive service. Thank you

It’s been 5 years too long. Finally back to some bad ass food. Cobbler and Ice cream out of this world.

Love the brisket baked potato!! Their chicken thighs are great, too. The waitstaff are always super friendly and take care of you.

My waitress Emerson make sure that I always had a full glass of tea and she was at my table at least what seemed like every five minutes she made sure that I was provided very excellent service

A true gem—authentic, one-of-a-kind, and proudly Aggie-owned est. in 2001. This local favorite isn’t a franchise, and it shows in the quality. Known for real-deal barbecue and home-style grilled burgers that even picky foodies rave about! Don’t miss the garlic mashed potatoes (your choice of cream or brown gravy) and the perfectly fried okra. It’s the go-to food place locals try to keep a secret!

Amazing food always good service when I go and very accommodating staff.

My experience was very bad. When I ordered the food, they told me to wait. It took a long time. When I went to ask, they told me they were going to check. But then they realized it was already ready and they had it on the Front. When they gave it to me, it was already very cold. But they never told me they had it ready. They lack a lot of communication at the front.
