I was in town to sty for just a night when i stopped in to have dinner! Ordered tacos and a frozen margarita both were delicious! The bartender was the most nicest person ever and gave me the hour prices even though it ended after 5 minutes! I would definitely come back again!

Tacos had hardly any toppings or meat in them. Taco Bell gives you more than that. I’ve been eating at brazos for years and this is the worst meal I’ve had. I got 2 nachos tacos and they were roughly $5 each! Hardly any beef in the burrito either. This is why businesses are closing in cville. You can’t skimp on the food and expect customers to waste their hard earned money coming back at your restaurant. You guys need to do better or you will end up closing. I definitely will never be coming back!!!!!!

Had a really rude and disappointing experience. I preordered $40 worth of food and included a 20% tip. Had my children with me, so I brought McDonald’s in for them because Brazos does not have kid friendly food. We picked up our food and went to eat on the patio and were asked to leave because of the outside food. The restaurant was mostly empty and the staff was really rude from the moment we walked into the door- particularly a college age female with dark hair and a lot of eye makeup. I get that it’s the restaurant’s right to refuse service, and we promptly left, but this is a shitty policy and it was poorly executed. They could have told us not to do it again and let us finish eating, or just turned a blind eye. We felt targeted by the grumpy/rude employee that ‘greeted’ us when we entered.
We order from here frequently and have spent a lot of money at this establishment. Love the food, but will never eat here again or recommend it.
Didn’t have this problem at the downtown location, but because I don’t know if it’s the same owner/management I will also avoid that one as well.

MIA and KRIS were such phenomenal servers! They attended to every need of ours and were super helpful in navigating the menu and demonstrated exceptional customer service. They deserve a raise by every means and by every standard!

Have been anxious to try this new place. After sitting for 25 minutes and no sign of any service, not even a drink, we left and will not return. 😢
The Bartender was great and when notified of an allergy let the cooling staff know and that’s the only positive from this review. They got my order wrong then delivered the correct burrito but it had the one allergy item in it. The owner and manager was sitting next to me and never cared enough to even say sorry. After paying for my bill they were nice enough to give me a $20 gift card for when I never come back. I usually don’t make reviews but this experience was awful.
Long time Brazos IX fan. Food at barracks is average at best. Service is hit or miss. Sometimes it’s fine and sometimes I’m sat down and left for 30 mins. Food takes forever. My main complaint is Im pretty sure employees do drugs in the bathroom on shift. I was in the bathroom and as I was walking out heard an employee say they need a “bump” to another employee. The man said “I got some on me, let’s go”. One of them is a bartender. I don’t know who the other guy is but seems like a manager. Regardless, was totally inappropriate. I don’t like giving bad reviews, I like to give benefit of the doubt but I was shocked. I know restaurant lifestyle isn’t the cleanest regarding drugs but I definitely don’t think employees should be doing coke at work. I will not be going back to this location. The other location is much better. Sometimes food takes some time but employees are much better and the food is better.

We had the carnitas tacos and the Brisker for one. Fries are really good. Almost the best in town. All good. Service was excellent, much better than last year.

The food gave me food poisoning. Do not go here. Service is terrible and the food is worse.
Dietary restrictions: They do not accommodate, they may say they will but when they bring out your food it won't be

I go here often, waitstaff always friendly and personable, and the food is great, especially the texas twinkies and brussels. The Bartender goes above and beyond, and makes different drink concoctions of the day, ive tried a few and they have been pretty tasty. Adding a pic of my pup on the patio because she gives her approval as well

The fish afficionado was really bad... Like an unseasoned frozen tilapia piece. The triple pickle was ok but the black bean mush also needed some spice. It was hot in the dining area. Our server was nice but I wouldn't return, really not worth the price when better tacos are easy to come by elsewhere.

Food is bland.
Queso, Guac, and Salsa taste like it was made by an amateur that is just learning to make food.
The steak in my burrito were half warmed and cold and the tacos were extremely greasy.
Chips seem to have come from the bottom of the container because they were in small pieces.
Margaritas are over priced and such a disappointment. What establishment does not offer plain salt to rim the glass?
I got sick and immediately vomit after leaving.
Please don't waste your money and appetite on this location.
The local food truck would probably be best.
Never coming back.

Dietary restrictions: I am keto so. I ordered a salad and a cup of taco toppings without the shell. The salad was huge and would be a meal by itself.
