“5 stars!!! I felt so bad. We showed up 10 mins before close but we drove from Oklahoma and had a heck of a trip. I promised my boys bbq so we risked it and went in. We were greeted, and seated and told to take our time (of course we didn’t) but our server Anthony was one of the best servers we have ever had, and the food was worth the hour and a half drive. Clean establishment as well! We will be back! Thank you Anthony for being so kind to us!“

“My husband and I stopped in for dinner last night, currently eating my leftovers for lunch and have nearly had to fight two co workers trying to steal my smoked turkey! It’s delicious, serving sizes are great. Flavors are developed and not aggressive. We enjoyed our first trip to Tenders very much.“

“When I tell y’all this food is sent from heaven, I mean it! I found this place when I was looking for places to order on DoorDash. The reviews were so good that I decided to just go up there because everyone speaks so highly of the owners. Be prepared to wait about 15 minutes, but it’s worth every minute sat!! I got 2 of the brisket tacos and a brisket bbq potato. It’s freaking huge! I’m going to try to the brisket sandwich next time because a family that are regulars were up there waiting on their food and told me I gotta try it next! I will be back this weekend. 😆“

“Passed by many times but finally tried it out today with my mom. Absolutely delicious! The ranch style beans alone are worth a visit. Generous portions. I'll definitely be going back.“

“My Mom, son and I went for a late lunch. Food is always great here, as we are local and occasionally make our way there, but today was completely different due to our server. I can't remember the last time I've had such exceptional service! THANK YOU Ian!👍🏻 You are Top Notch!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I hope you are there every time we visit.“

“Dickey’s Barbecue Pit on I-35E in Denton is hands down one of the best barbecue spots around! The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Their brisket is tender and juicy with just the right amount of smokiness, and the ribs fall right off the bone. The sides are just as good—mac & cheese, baked potato casserole, and fried okra are absolute must-haves.

The staff is always friendly and welcoming, making the dining experience even better. The place is clean, well-maintained, and perfect for a casual meal with friends or family.“
