“Great food with a drive thru...super fast service!! We need you in South Bend, IN“

“Very helpful! Both men who helped us place our catering order did everything they could to make sure we got what we wanted at the best price point. Super friendly and all around great. We picked up some food to dine in after and it was great, as always!“

“I ate dinner here tonight with my wife and two year-old. For the first time in a very long time this restaurant experience felt like I was a guest going to dinner at a friend's house. It was a little shocking at first...not because of anything the staff was doing, but because I forgot what it felt like to be treated so warmly at a restaurant.

I talked to Josh for a minute and told him the customer service was way above and beyond and he explained it's a family-owned business that wants to treat everyone like family. And they absolutely nailed it. Thanks Josh and SCB staff/management!

Specific Examples:
1. Staff intercepted my wife before she could make it to the drink machine and filled up her drink for her.
2. Josh carried one of our trays to the table after we paid because he saw we were wrangling a tired and hungry toddler.
3. Manager asked multiple times if there was anything we needed.
4. Multiple staff held doors for us as we left and thanked us for coming.“

“Dickeys is solid reliable BBQ. It isn't the best in Texas but it's good without the crazy long lines of more trendy places. We went in the afternoon and there was no one else there. I hope it's because we were there during off hours. It's good. I hope it sticks around.“

“Vanessa was the best waitress ever, I highly recommend asking for her !“

“I highly recommend the Wagyu and The Hamilton.

Vegetarian options: This is a steak joint. Go elsewhere for vegan dishes.

Parking: They have 2 parking lots to choose from. Plenty of parking.

Kid-friendliness: Children not recommended.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible.“

“I was amazed by how it taste: the lamb skew, fried noodles, the grilled veggies, tendons and everything that we ordered. I spent years in Beijing and this place even beats most places back in china, I guarantee you. I would definitely come back every chance I get.“

“The food is delicious, and everyone is super friendly and helpful. I love the barbecue, the fried catfish, and the fried okra. All the desserts are fantastic, especially the banana pudding and the bread pudding.“

“Every dish we ordered the taste was very very good. From the brisket to dessert to potato salad and the beans. All was tasty. However, they did forget my chicken strips and fries, but that happens sometimes on a to-go order ... Had no problem reimbursing me the next day, but then forgot my ranch, so go figure? Highly recommend them for the taste, but make sure you check your bag(s) that you got every single thing you ordered before you drive home and find something missing. Always a major frustration. Will continue to frequent. 5 stars.“

“Excellent pulled pork sandwiches and baby back ribs. The BBQ beans are amazing, too!“

“Amazing food and customer service“

“Very happy that I saw the drive-through right at closing time - especially since the half chicken was on sale! Doing smoked chicken right is a great way to prove you know how to run a pit! Excellent chicken, and will return again! Cole slaw also passed the test.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolutely hands down the best food I’ve eaten in Texas so far! I’m already planning to spend my birthdays here for years to come if all goes to plan. The staff are exceptionally kind, the cooks nailed the meat perfectly … especially the moist tenderloin. 😋🤤 Out of this world! Their hot BBQ sauce is worth every penny if you can grab the big bottle.

We came on a Sunday after church and still found plenty of seating, even a party room in the back. As a carpenter, I appreciated the gorgeous handmade tables… solid wood, 🪵 sturdy, and beautifully finished. The atmosphere was welcoming for my big family, and the staff at the register even let me sample meats before ordering. Once I tried the ham 🐷🐖🐽 and then the moist tenderloin (like filet mignon! 🥩), I was sold.

Better than Hardee’s, twice the food for half the price,💲 and no long lines. Nearly as spacious as Buc-ee’s, with plenty of room to enjoy. Truly heaven sent food… 🥩🍗
“Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good” (Psalm 34:8, NKJV). Rudy’s, you’re killing it… in the best way! 🙌🔥“

“Great food!! Hibachi Cabbage and spicy noodle is so good. And extra friendly staff. Will definitely go back soon.“

“This Dickeys is under New Ownership and AJ is awesome! If you haven’t been here since August 1, 2022, you need to stop by and meet him and his staff! Great people with great food and service!!“

“The skewers are particularly well-prepared, and I appreciate the smaller portion sizes, which allow diners to sample a wide variety of dishes without feeling overwhelmed. Pricing is reasonable and reflects the quality of most menu items.

However, I did try the seafood boil once, and unfortunately, the ingredients did not seem fresh. It’s possible this item isn’t ordered frequently and may not be rotated as often as others.

Service could be more attentive. For example, I typically have to request water refills and ask for the check. That said, it may be reflective of the general service style in this area, which resembles a Chinatown-style dining environment.

I visit this restaurant three to four times a month, and my favorite part is their dessert they are consistently excellent.“

“My husband and I ate here last night when we walked in the door the waitress (young lady) was warm and welcoming as she explain the food style to us. so we stayed and she helped explain the menu to us as everything was written in Chinese. We ordered a few items and loved the flavor! Spicy 🌶 was what she described the food would be, it was but the amounts of other spices and herbs balanced it out just right! We will be back lots more to try on this menu.“

“The food here is very good. The tofu soup is the best thing about it, of course, but the sides are great as well.

You might not be used to the service as customers need to order at the counter, but there was nothing to complain about for me other than to keep it in mind the next time I come.

The restaurant plays music that is calming and you can hear the cooking in the back, which makes for a warm atmosphere. The lady at the counter is friendly as well.“

“Excellent food and great service! Thanks“
