22 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Donna

“Was on Vacation in the 956, first time going there and was not disappointed. The family enjoyed the food, will absolutely go again next tyme we're in the valley“

“Just had 3 of the best barbacoa tacos I have ever had! Ordered 3 on corn tortillas and basically got 6 for that price. Not greasy and the tortillas were perfectly handmade. The way they double stack the tortillas is excellent! The photo speaks for itself! Highly recommend!“

“We have visited this restaurant since they opened doors. The brisket and turkey is amazing and the staff is friendly. HOWEVER, they may be getting too popular for their own good. The last few times we've gone, we arrived before doors opened, waiting in line for over an hour and by the time we made it inside, almost everything was sold out. We ended up having to settle for the burgers, which were not worth the wait.🥺 Hopefully, they increase production at this establishment OR open more locations because we really like this place.“

“This place is amazing, The brisket is so tender and juicy. The brussel sprouts are by far the best I've ever eaten .“

“Omg where do I start:….. Best customer service the Brisket is my favorite let it be in plate or sandwich Don’t forget THE (Peach Cobbler or apple cobbler and Ice Cream) for desert. And they have a gooood Ice Tea Y’all.“

“The bbq is good and they give you samples of each meat for first timers. It's a bit too smokey for me. Service was great, friendly. Old folks may have a challenge hearing what they say, kinda noisy at the counter.
Table was not cleaned well, sticky.“

“Very good bbq place a hidden Gem , got the special of smoked tender brisket ,sauceage, beef fajitas and chicken, with rice beans (bbq sauce jalapeno, onions, bread). What was left of of my amazing plate. Prices amazing for the amount of food.“

“Vargas BBQ is the real deal. You can taste the heart and hustle in every bite. From the brisket fideo and creamy green spaghetti to the incredible beef-cheek barbacoa and amazing burgers, everything is packed with flavor. Ram’s smoked meats are top-tier, and Nidia’s recipes tie the whole menu together. On top of that, they keep their prices fair and truly care about serving the community. Easily one of the best spots in the Valley — absolutely worth the visit!“

“Great guy making great food. Haven’t seen anyone as passionate as Josh when it comes to real deal barbecue“

“We found Joe's by accident and thought we would give them a try. We've had his Brisket, Ribs, Loaded Potatoes, Cheeseburgers and tonight his Street Tacos! Everything is always excellent! And I love his homemade French fries! They remind me of the ones my Mother would make. His prices are always reasonable and you get big portions. Joe's 18 year old daughter is the pitmaster and she does a wonderful job! we highly recommend this little family owned BBQ place. stop by, you won't be disappointed! Tell Joe that Don sent you!“

“Home , RGV to visit family, craving for BBQ and cousin suggested Ace’s BBQ figuring they knew what I loved. At Edinburg location the place was kinda hidden finding out it was well worth it… brisket was super moist, sausage was on spot, as was the pork having ordered the the huge 3 meats botana plate served over tortilla chips w/ melted cheese (I was hooked)! Well presented and served and you got my business when I return home 3 times a year over Rudy’s.. Great Job and keep it up!.. Sides were very good but I was there for the meats.“

“I need to upgrade my review for this LongHorn Steakhouse. I noticed I left a 2-star review back in 2017 after a disappointing experience. I've returned several times since then, and, after that visit in 2017, has been consistently positive since. Restaurants tend to have high employee turnover rates, and can have personnel issues from time to time - especially on challenging days when they're getting slammed like on that Mother's Day. So here's my redemption review...

This LongHorn Steakhouse is located on the north side of Interstate 2 (Expressway 83) in Weslaco, in front of the JCP and Academy stores and in between Texas Blvd. And N. Bridge Road.

The current management has maintained the property well. It is a handsome building with the trademark stonework facade, nicely landscaped, with ample, well lit parking. It is handicapped accessible, and high chairs for toddlers are available. It would be good for small groups as well as family get-togethers, and business lunch or date night.

They offer their signature steaks, burgers, salmon, chicken, some comfort food like their excellent mac n cheese, salads, and more.

I met some friends here for a late lunch on a Saturday around 4 PM. There was no wait. Our server did an incredible job, was friendly, attentive, and checked back on us several times. She kept our drinks filled and even offered a to-go cup as we were wrapping up.

The fresh baked bread and butter was delicious, served along with our drinks while we looked over the menu.

I ordered the 8 ounce sirloin, a loaded baked potato, and the crispy Brussels sprouts. I noticed the potato had a lot of salt encrusted on the skin, but since I did not eat the skin, it was not a problem - though it could be an issue for those on low-sodium diets. The Brussels Sprouts were crispy on the outside for the most part... I would have enjoyed them more a bit crisper and with some Balsamic vinager, but they were still pretty good. The steak was cooked as requested and delicious.

There was some background music, but it was at a decent level so it did not hinder our conversation.

I really enjoyed this visit and dining experience, recommend this LongHorn Steakhouse, and based on my last three visits am awarding them the full five stars.“

“$28 for 2 plates and one was burned. Usually recommend it but not today.“
