    Brisket and Rib Plate with homemade potato salad and smoked beans
    Lillie L.

    We are blessed to have such a wonderful BBQ meal just a couple of minutes from the house. The brisket is thick cut, ribs are cooked to perfection and the sides are homemade. My husband enjoys the fact that you get so much food for under $20. Hope they can keep up the good work for a real long time.

    Big, meaty ribs

    Wow! Great food. I had the loaded baked potato with brisket, cheese, sour cream, and jalapenos. It had to weigh in at 3 or 4 pounds! Seriously. Also had some ribs. Very meaty, nice and peppery. Sauce is a little sweet for my taste, but good. My wife had the brisket sandwich and said it was great, with a lot of brisket. Even better, it is a family run business.

    Chopped beef sandwich
    Joel W.

    Headed back to H-town from Round Rock and needed some solid road trip bbq sandwiches for me and my kiddo on Father's Day. Charlie Ro's was the perfect solution. I opted for the sliced brisket and my daughter got the chopped beef. We both loved the huge portion of smoked juicy goodness piled inside of a tasty bun. I got the spicy sauce which was a decent-not-overpowering amount of heat and she got the sweet which she loved. While we were picking up, we got to chat with the lovely family that owns this roadside gem. They work hard and love the art of making & serving BBQ, and it all comes through in the quality 'que that we enjoyed on our Texas road trip. If you're in Taylor and don't want to wait in a long line for overpriced meat sold down the street, head to Charlie Ro's for a mouth-watering Texas BBQ experience!

    There's sauces and potato salad is the bomb. It taste really good

    The sliced brisket sandwich is meaty and flavorful. If we call in an order it is ready by the time we get there. That's good service.

    I've had the three meat plate brisket sausage and chicken with the beans as a side, all of it was delicious.

    This place is almost on the outskirts of Taylor, surrounded by grain silos and some residential…read morehomes near the tracks. It's as if they're trying to keep this place a secret from the tourists. It also doesn't help that their parking lot has only five spaces, but there is some street parking. Inside it looks like someone tried to repurpose their garage into a makeshift restaurant and grocery store. All the sides are served out of several crockpots and the meat is stored in a dutch oven. The sides were nothing special, the beans were average and the potato salad could've come from Walmart. The corn and green beans were clearly out of a can. I got the two meat plate for $20. I decided on chicken and ribs (brisket is $2 more). The chicken was fairly moist and the ribs were decent, but the barbecue sauce they ladled over it was overly sweet with no tang. I was going to get the three meat plate until I saw the brisket sitting in the Dutch oven. At least when they ran my credit card, the tip screen was not there waiting for me. Glad I stopped in, but it's not a place I would come back to. If you're a tourist, there are better places to check out. Informative photos included.

It's a cute nostalgic space with old-timey instruments displayed in the corners and has a really unique feel. The wait staff is friendly and funny and very knowledgeable about the menu. Personally, I've had the big thick burger and the pulled pork sandwich. Both are delicious. Others have had the chicken fried steak, the lasagna, and everyone I've gone there with loved it. Great comfort food and delicious pie for dessert. Try it, you'll like it!

    Cute little spot located on taylor highs old campus- specifically the old band hall…read more Great way to repurpose the old building! Food was pretty good. Full bar avaliable and if I recall breakfast lunch and dinner sold all day! I had french toast and cheese grits- tasted just like it does at home- as expected I guess but nothing that gave me the wow factor I was hoping for, cheese grits however were really good, Kinda thick but packed with flavor! Eggs were cooke just right and potatoes were good too however came out luke warm like they had sat for a bit before being sent out, the pancakes were kinda like the french toast as it tasted like something you make at home but still good! Lots of pies to choose from- I went with a slice of buttermilk to go! It was good but i'd try something different next time I come by! We were at right away around 11am on saturday. Our waitress was nice and everything was out quick! The bathroom however needs some work- definitely something that's been there for QUITE sometime with no fix ups- dirty floors and walls, leaking handle when you go to flush. I will be back to check out more of the menu next time we are in the area!

When we arrived, we were told that other guests were already sitting at our reserved tables. Instead of honoring our reservation, they squeezed our entire group into a much smaller area where everyone was cramped and uncomfortable. Our server was kind and did the best they could, but the kitchen and overall management were a disaster. Dinner took over 2 1/2 hours, and food came out one or two plates at a time over the entire evening--even though we all ordered at the same time. Some people had finished eating before others had even received their meals. I ordered the nachos, and they didn't arrive until 2 1/2 hours after we sat down. Waiting that long for nachos is simply unacceptable. We were repeatedly told the kitchen was backed up because they were busy and because items like the chips were "homemade." They absolutely were not--they tasted like standard bagged tortilla chips from the grocery store. To make matters worse, the food itself was mediocre and not worth the wait (the one standout was the fried okra). Between the mishandled reservation, the excessive wait times, and the disappointing food, the entire experience was incredibly frustrating. I will not be returning, and I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone.
