Reviews for The Pit Room in Houston, TX
My late review?back in May this year, we had driven for 3 hours and wanted lunch when we got into Houston so decided to come... straight here, based off of it having been on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives and all the good reviews. Ordered a combo for ourlittle family and ate most of it. We were lucky to find a table for 4. Enjoyed the sausage, chicken, brisket, pork ribs. Nice tohave BBQ sauce on the side. Not enough delicious sides given for a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids?one teen and one tween)?my soncould?ve eaten the macaroni by himself. Giant beef rib was too fatty. These negatives alone made us realize we?d have beenbetter off just getting individual meals. Think the cost would?ve come out the same. Overall delicious! Read more
A must in Houston! Food was fresh and delicious. Brisket was so flavourful and the mustard potato salad so good. My husband had... the ribs and although they were good and fall off the bone, it was very fatty. I would not have enjoyed it but he liked it alot. I was happy with my meal. Read more
If this isn't the undisputed GOAT of BBQ in Houston then I don't know what is. The Brisket is just simply glorious. The rub,... the flavor, the fattyness, it's all perfect. The combination of flavors and textures are perfection. The beef rib is superb andthe meat is so tender it literally fell off the bone when I picked it up. The sausage is delightful, the turkey and chicken arejust as good. The sides and BBQ sauce are the cherry on top of a feast. I'll absolutely come back here for seconds. Read more
Absolute best BBQ in Houston! We had the feast number 2 which was more than enough for 4 people. It gets very busy here and hard... to find parking we were here on a Sunday afternoon and had to drive around in circles to find parking. They do have a largeseating area outside which is great. The ribs were very good. Honestly all of the meat is good it literally falls off the bone. Read more
My friend recommended this restaurant. We went there at a Wednesday evening and it was packed with people. But the service was... really fast. Both my husband and I ordered three meat platter. We both ordered pork ribs and briskets but different kinds ofsausages and sides. Briskets were very tender and pork ribs very tasteful. Sausage was a little too dry for me. Sides areaverage. Definitely a five star???? Read more
Great place to take a moment and enjoy amazing bbq and good vibes. Love the restaurant design and the food quality. I had... brisket and chicken and both items were coked to perfection. The smoke was not overdone and it had the right amount ofseasoning. The brisket has a spicy hint to it which compliments the smoke. For the sides, i had mac and cheese and claw slaw. Iam not a fan of their recipe for mac and cheese ( please remove from menu or update recipe). It looked like green beans werebetter choice. Be careful with the local wild life. They will steal your food :) Read more
The meat was great! Unfortunately, they were out of beef ribs, but they gave a slice of flat and a slice of point for the... brisket, which was very good, and the cheddar jalapeno sausage was perfect! The sides (beans and mac and cheese) weren't thebest I've ever had, but still good. The meat stole the show, though, so I'm very happy I picked this spot while in the area! Read more
Melt in your mouth brisket with a wonderful salty crust on the outside made this meal memorable. There was a bit if a line to... order, but they moved you through pretty quickly. The sides all looked fantastic, I chose the charro beans, which has a bit of akick. There was a selection of beer and soft drinks to chose from. The booths and tables were kept clean and it was an overallpleasant experience. Definitely worth a stop! Read more
