“I had a hunch this place was the real deal the moment I stepped out of my truck. The aroma of freshly smoked meat mixed with sweet and tangy BBQ flavor inundated the gravel parking lot. A scent so overwhelmingly captivating, I couldn’t help but follow it to its source. I walked through the front doors of 902 and was immediately greeted by a charismatic waiter who promptly served us drinks. The menu was concise, yet powerful. Along with the atmosphere, all menu items complemented a cold beer and a sports game. I went with the brisket grilled cheese sandwich, served on 100% USDA Texas Toast. Mouthwatering is an understate, to say the least. After I consumed my fair share in cheesy caloric delight, the owner came out and greeted us with a warm smile, and freshly smoked chicken. My favorite part about this establishment is its commitment to keeping things simple, yet refining its craft through friendly employees, quality ingredients, and a home town feel. I look forward to my next visit.“

“The best chilis experience since the original one on Greenville avenue in Dallas in the ‘70’s. The hamburgers and fries cooked to perfection and the service was impeccable. Kaylee kept an eye on us and offered refills when we were half empty. She is sweet and efficient. The manager Isaac came by and introduced himself. He is such a nice man. We can see why the restaurant is so great..really good management. He will go far…“

“The food was great. Their award winning ribs were some of the best I've ever had. The brisket was juicy and flavorful, pulled pork was amazing with a great bark, the chicken breast was perfectly cooked, the turkey breast was slightly dry and the seasoning was tasty but a bit spicy (not seasoned to my personal taste but was still delicious) all my kids food was good as well. The staff was very friendly, prompt, and attentive to our wants and needs. The atmosphere was nice (though very not busy) and quiet, slightly stylistic with neon signs and movie posters as the stick out decorations. It was very comfortable as well.“

“First time coming to this specific location and was a little hesitant as ive had terrible experiences at other ihops in the past but it was great! Food tasted fresh and came out fast, our server Cynthia was a total gem to my two little boys and even gave them a box of stickers to pick a couple out of. We were the only people there but im not sure why, between the value menu and kids eating free after 4 pm I’ll definitely be coming back!“
