Great BBQ!! Small off the beaten path, but worth the drive. Brisket was tender, juicy and just the right amount of smoke! I'll be back.

I ain’t a fan of bbq, but Mesquite BBQ is the only bbq that I would travel from Houston to eat. The brisket sandwiches are top tier. Had menudo this morning and came back for seconds. Highly recommend for anybody in Texas to come check them out and show them some love.

Since the first time I tried the food here, I plan my trips from Houston to Corpus, around Mesquite House’s time schedule, I have to have the food here everytime I can get down here, it’s the best in South Texas!

The BBQ Chicken, Brisket,Sausage, and Pork ribs were all good. The rice and beans were great, but the potato salad just couldn't do it's sweet.

I've tried plenty of BBQ places out but I can say out of all the places I've tried Mesquite House was my favorite one. The brisket was delicious but the Fajitas are my favorite from here the rice and beans were really on point service was awesome. I had homemade peach cobbler for dessert with ice cream it hit the spot.

Dry brisket, canned pinto beans. Fajitas weren't any better. Served unwarmed and rubberish. Maybe it was a bad day but will not return. There's a place uptown (Garrett's bbq) that blows this place out of the water.
