Barrel & Bones

At first you walk in and it’s really nice. Sat down to order and thought this place is a real hidden jem. Ordered the 2 meat with brisket and ribs. When it came the meat was cold…the manager came over and said she would like to make it right for me and send out another order. Great I thought , thank you …however when the waitress brought the order again it was So piping Hot that I couldn’t even pick up a rib. The plate was clearly microwaved for what had to have been like 5 min! Meat was brown with a nasty burnt flavor …ruined it…
I feel this was done out of spite to the fact that I sent my dish back complaining of it being cold..
I will never go back to this place and I’m writing this review so that people know what they will do if you send an order back to them ..

Rubbery meat, had to chew so much my jaw started to hurt. Nacho cheese on the Mac. Creamer cup portion of BBQ sauce. Awful food. I don’t recommend this place at all. I do not understand the good reviews.

Lunch LIL Tex with lean brisket was excellent today. This is a baked potatoe with one meat / butter / bacon bits and queso ! Higly reccomended

Worst first visit ever! We watched the story on Channel 11 with Doug Dunbar and Karen Borta,, and this seemed like a good new BBQ restaurant to try. So, we went the next day, Saturday, for dinner, to the location in Farmers Branch off LBJ Freeway, and what a mistake that was. We walked in, and what a strange set up for a restaurant. Only a few tables (maybe 6 or 8) in a seating area, a HUGE bar, and an area with a pool table or two, and a few tables around it. Then, a large very long table, with walls at each end, very strange, and I'm not sure who would sit there unless you had a large party of about 30 or more to fill the table. And, a large number of beautiful TVs everywhere, with the sound turned up so high that hearing loss would be a certainty. When the waiter sautered over, we could not hear him. We assumed he came to get our drink order, so we placed it and asked him to please have the volume turned down. There were only about 4 other people in the restaurant at the time (about 6 PM on a Saturday night, Texas-OU weekend). We think he said he would adjust the volume. When he brought the drinks, we again asked to have the volume turned down. He said he would check with the manager. After another 5-10 minutes, and him not returning and the volume remaining at an unsafe level, we decided that this restaurant was not interested in listening to customers, and not interested in our business, so we decided to leave. I went to the bar to pay for our drinks, asked again about the volume, and he said the manager said the volume would not change, but, of course, did not come over to tell us. Again, worst experience of customer service I have seen in a very long time. I think that you can find plenty of other restaurants with good food who care about customer satisfaction than to try this one.

Kid-friendliness: NOT kid friendly at all. Also, NOT family friendly at all.

The food was 10/10 but the service was a 1.. I called once to place my order no one answered.. I called again and there was no answer… good thing I know how to use ethnology or else they would have lost a sale. When I got there there were people but I had to wait a couple of minutes for the waiter to come to me when there was only 4 people… again the food is good but the service was not the best

Since it was within walking distance of the hotel, I decided to give it a try. The service was friendly. I ordered the two meats and one side combo. Sweet potato fries were great. The brisket had a nice taste, though it was a bit fattier than I prefer. Unfortunately, the ribs didn’t meet my expectations.

Had brisket and Jalapeno sausage there this past week. Had to go back two days later to see if I was imagining how good it was! Loved it.

We ordered to-go, we will not be eating here again.
Food was not good.
We got brisket - moist, burnt ends which were not burnt at all or tender. We got coleslaw and Mac cheese as our sides.
Coleslaw was very vinegary and tasted spoiled. Mac and cheese was very dry and super bland! The bbq sauce tasted like ketchup.
