“Absolutely phenomenal. I got the katsu fried chicken with curry sauce and it was quite a large portion, super fresh, and so yummy. Mac salad was delicious and the spam musubi was my favorite. I only have Hawaiian Bros to compare to and L & L is definitely superior. 10/10“
“Just…wow. This is probably the best barbecue I’ve ever eaten. I came here because of the reviews and was not disappointed! From the friendly face at the counter to the speedy service and the delicious barbecue, there’s just no downside here. I ordered the brisket, sausage, green beans, and mac-n-cheese and you can see from the photos that it was a MOUND of food! But, I’m no quitter so I soldiered on until my plate was clean. Afterward, I inspected the cakes on the counter—they are all homemade and all looked incredible—but cooler heads prevailed and I declined to try them. Just another reason to come back! Which I will, soon. This place is a treasure!“
“The brisket is the best I have ever had and would give Franklin’s a run for its money. Mac and cheese was amazing and the beans, let’s just say my momma would have been impressed. The pit master and his little daughter made it an even more special visit.“
“Bawk Bawk!! Chicken Chicken!!! So this was our second time visiting this establishment and let me tell you that I was so impressed by not only the food but the outstanding customer service. I hate I didn't get the employee's name but he was the ONLY one there working; he was taking orders and cooking the food all by himself. Long story short my son's high school basketball team was in town for a tourney and I suggested this place. We ordered 100 wings multiple flavors and sauces plus fries and he had everything prepared for us in less than 20 mins!! He provided plates and napkins and the boys absolutely loved the food!!! THANK YOU so much for such an enjoyable experience, outstanding customer service and amazingly delicious food. I will always visit you guys when I'm in Waco and def send referrals!“
“Every place in town is trying to recreate what Nathan has done at In The Woods with his BBQ. The meats are fantastic and the sides are worthy of a meal in themselves. The presentation is on point and Nathan will take good care of you. My husband and I enjoyed a great conversation with Nathan and his daughter as well. A wonderful experience. Easy to get to, good parking, and the best BBQ!! I highly recommend.“
“I was visiting Waco for a business trip and my colleague found this place. We decided to give it a shot and were very happy that we did. The barbecue was delicious and the staff were very friendly. Overall a great atmosphere and good food. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and will come back next time in Waco.“
“We visited here last week and searched for the best hole in the wall location we could find. Chute 4 is what came up. And we are super satisfied with our decision! The Brisket was fantastic! The service was great. Our Kids ate free. The owner was friendly and talked bbq with us and about his time in service in the US Army. We look forward to our return to Waco one day to visit this restaurant!Kid-friendliness: Outstanding place to bring your children as they eat free! Each child had plenty to eat.“
“We were visiting from South Dakota and decided to check out Magnolia Market, walked to Mama & Papa B’s and had a wonderful time. Bill is a brother in Christ who wants to serve outstanding BBQ. Some of the best links I’ve ever had in my life. Highly recommend!“
“Service was quick and more than satisfactory. They have the best bbq and bbq sauce in all of Texas. And got to sit outside with my meal the atmosphere was calming. It was a bit pricey so I think they could come down just a little but it definitely didn’t disappoint!Parking: There were plenty of spot close to all 3 entrances! They had parking for the restaurant part and for the gas station part.Kid-friendliness: The kids that were there seemed to be enjoying the food themselves.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes 2 ramps for wheelchairs this place is also a gas station.“
“I ordered a hamburger and it was outstanding. It was around 1/2 pound with a flame grilled flavor. This reminded me of a home made burger because it was generous with the toppings. The pic doesn't do it justice. It's bigger than it looks. I recommend calling before visiting. This place is can be closed at random times. The menu is unorganized but that doesn't bother me when the food is very good.This is a local gem!“
“I was looking for a good barbecue place to eat, while I was driving through town, so I checked some reviews and decided to eat here. The reviews were absolutely correct. This place is top notch! Every single employee was super friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious. The brisket just fell apart, and the potato salad and beans were wonderful.“
“The food, atmosphere and staff are 5 star.....the manager stops by our table to check on us every time ... He's very friendly, goes above and makes sure the food is good and if thereis anythingwe need. We usually stop here on our way headed to the races or casino...BE SURE TO TRY THE NEW GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH.“
“THANK YOU for serving gluten-free pasta!! The service is always fast and friendly. The Mac and cheese is always delicious, and your social media accounts always make me laugh. Keep it up!Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free pasta is available.“
“I really loved this spot. Open and spacious with great prices ($4 kids meal) and delicious food. The service was super friendly and we had a great time. There was a pool table and tvs in the bar area but we were with our kiddos so we stayed in the main space. They even had crayons and coloring paper for the kids. I highly recommend!Kid-friendliness: High chairs, crayons and coloring paper, $4 kids meals“
“Great food. Wholesome family. Best place to get a taste of local food if you're from out of town. Really felt the meaning of Southern hospitality. Left with our hearts and tummies full. ? Got to try ever dish, side, and dessert. All were good, no joke, no lie.“
