We finally tried Barbecue Inn after a friend had been recommending it for a while, and it did not disappoint! He got the chicken wings, I had the chicken fried steak, and my husband ordered the chicken fried chicken.. everything was delicious and full of flavor.

We also loved learning about the restaurant’s history. There’s something so special about a generational spot with such rich roots in Houston. We’ll definitely be back!

The fried chicken and mashed potatoes were good. Coconut pie was OK. The green beans were mush, absolutely awful, overcooked to death. The cream gravy had no flavor or seasoning. It was like flour and milk. Still using iceberg lettuce. It's time to upgrade the sides.

Terrible food. Shrimp not de-veined. BBQ potato was a build your own bowl of meat and a small foil wrapped potato... No sauce no beans, no effort. Food for half of our party arrived 45 mins after the first half got theirs. The salad was just a plate with iceberg lettuce on it...no other veggies or toppings. Just go to Pappas.

The barbecue Inn has the best fried shrimp and chicken fried steak they’re known for their baked potatoes, which are always large and delicious. Their service is impeccable and they’ve been here since 1946. It’s a great place to take your family to. Martha our waitress was very attentive. Great smiles. ❤️

Atmosphere is retro 1970s, plain simple and clean....our waitress was attentive even after two drinks were spilled 😳, food for comfort...we had the fried chicken and green beans....not greasy at all and very crispy...green beans were a little over cooked but eaten too 😀 the menu is easy prices are good.

The Fried Chicken is world class. The mashed potatoes with white gravy was great too. Fast and polite service.
