Service and people are excellent, the meats, not so much. I tried the sampler of brisket, sausage and beef rib. Brisket was... tender and juicy but absolutely zero flavor, no smoke ring or taste. Had literally no bark at all. I question if this had everseen the inside of a smoker. Had to douse it in sauce and even then didn't finish it. Sausage was fine but nothing unusual. Not too flavorful. The beef rib was dry and hard. The plastic fork they give broke just trying to pierce the meat. I have asimple rule for Texas bbq: if it needs sauce to taste good, it's not real Texas bbq. I might add a new corollary now aboutbreaking forks! Read more
Honestly the food left a lot to be desired. I had pork ribs and a beef rib and neither were great. The friend had the Sampler... and said the Brisket was bland. It looked dry. They have three sauces a regular BBQ, a spicy BBQ and a jalapeno BBQ. TheJalapeno is decent but didn't really go with the food. The other two are bland. I will say the staff was very friendly and theambiance was good. If you're in Austin looking for great BBQ look elsewhere. Read more
This was some really decent no frills texas bbq. I ordered my food to go and got pulled pork, creamed corn, and coleslaw. They... did forget the dressing that's supposed to go on the coleslaw but it was still good. I thought the pulled pork was deliciousvery juicy and tender. Large portions for the price compared to some of the other bbq places. Coopers > Iron Works > Black's(in my opinion). Read more
If you're looking for the shack style restaurant that serves great food - you found it. The BBQ is unbelievably plentiful and... flavorful and the service was lightning fast. I come from NC so I am already hesitant of others BBQ but I enjoyed Iron Worksand would likely go back if ever I am in the area. The dining area is very hot and stuffy so plan for that, especiallysummertime. Read more

This has to be one of the most underrated BBQ spots in town. It was close to the hotel so I had the opportunity to eat here... twice this week and both times the beef ribs and brisket were excellent. Taste for taste Iron Works was also a great value. Read more
