I got the baby back ribs with sweet potato casserole and cream corn. AMAZING BBQ!! The meat falls off the bone and is seasoned perfectly. The sweet potatoes remind me of thanksgiving. Loved every bite. Then we got the banana pudding and the peach cobbler. Yummy!!! Our server was excellent & the restaurant was very clean. Will definitely be back! read more

The service can improve and the food all the bbq tasted old and dry definitely wouldn't go back or recommend this place

Down to earth BBQ restaurant. Enjoyed a variety of their meats and sides, really good sides too. The service was excellent and friendly. I have even returned for a second and third visit. read more

I love the staff especially Brianna, she's amazing. The ribs fall off the bone and the brisket melts in my mouth. read more

Worst bbq place ever!!!! Who told them that jalapeños are served with barbecue. Will never come back to this place. Out of respect I ate the food!!!! read more

We arrived before they opened, but we were let in due to the chilly day. The waitress was great! We were a party of 15, but she never missed a beat. Meat PlateThe food was excellent and we would go back. read more

While the food is okay, it's just not that memorable or worth the price you end up paying for.

Went yesterday and spent $86.64. Invoice #274517, Batch#132. I called the order in, some guy named Freddy took my order. ordered 1 pound of lean brisket and 1/2 pound of brisket, 1 large order sweet potato casserole, 1 serving of Mac and cheese, 2 orders of banana pudding, and 1 order of pecan cobbler...the guy said 10 minutes...I get there the guy says, 1 pound of marbled brisket, I said I ordered lean brisket...he said yeah, that's what I meant....and so on. I get home, and WOW!!! All the FAT!!! That's why I only ordered 1/2 of pound of brisket, I don't mind a little fat...but WOW, I didn't know I was paying for all that fat that I got with this order. Then I didn't get my banana pudding and I didn't get the pecan cobbler...instead I got the peach cobbler...way to go D'Willie!!! Way disappointed!!!! I thought of going going over, but why waste my time and energy....i just won't visit this place anymore....Buyer Beware.... read more

We were in the neighborhood and wanting lunch. The ratings for D Willie's were 4.5 with most of them extolling how great the food tasted. They were right. Some of the best BBQ we've had, and living in Central Texas means finding BBQ is pretty easy. We had just spent time riding the Riverwalk and my only disappointment was that they didn't serve beer. BBQ, beer, and Tex-mex are my 3 favorite food groups. Yet, without the beer, the BBQ here was still worth the stop. read more

Great food, great service. Wasn't packed on a Saturday around 7pm. Highly recommend the sweet potato casserole and cream corn. Got the lean brisket and it was delicious and sauce was perfect on top. Very clean and friendly staff, definitely going back soon. read more

This place is absolutely the best!!! The barbecue is amazing very tasty and not dry. The service is equivalent, no,... better than you would recieve in a fine dining establishment. I can't say enough about Emily she never missed a beat. Hears everything and not only meets expectations but exceeds them. She anticipated all of our needs. Glasses never ran empty. Simply put THE BEST!!! read more

Food is good but I will pass next time and search for a different restaurant. There is better competition and looking forward to indulge on some good BBQ. read more

My son and I ordered the all you can eat. They give you so much food you can barely finish the first plate. 3 meats and 3 sides. Everything was so good , the meats had the natural bbq taste. Place is super clean. The staff are so nice and polite. Our waitress is brienna served us with a smile the whole time. read more

Local (SA) business with unique smoke on brisket and beans. Staff friendly and food portions good for the price. Decor is super casual in old strip center location. read more

Wasn't the worst I've had, but definitely not the best either. The BBQ wasn't very flavorful. The chicken and brisket were both dry. The sauces make the meat better. The banana pudding was the worst I've ever had. It had a "gritty" texture and again lacked actual flavor. The staff was polite so I'll take average food and good service over great food and horrible service any day. read more

We came to San Antonio about 6 years ago and our granddaughter brought us to Dee Willie's, and we loved it and so when we came back this time my wife wanted to have her birthday there. We didn't get to go for her birthday but on the way back from San Angelo we looked up Dee Willie's and the GPS took us to this location. We knew it wasn't where we had gone before, but let me tell you, it was every bit as good. The service was great, it was nice to have a server with a little personality without being intrusive. And speaking of birthdays, it was the owner and founder's wife's birthday and while we were paying she gave us a little history. Fabulous food, friendly service who could ask for more. We don't get to Texas often enough but when we do I have brisket as often as I can and on my opinion Dee Willie's is miles ahead of the rest. read more

Delicious. I enjoy the baked potato salad so much. The ribs were fall off the bone And the marbled brisket was juicy.

Best BBQ ever! Try their bake potato potato salad yummy. I believe they make some of the best smoke turkey.

The food was pretty good. The atmosphere was nice ,normal typical bbq place. My folks love it there ..it was my first time going and it wasn't too bad I recommend trying it out!! Service was pretty good as well . read more

The dino rib was very fatty. I really did not enjoy it as i thought I would. I think the rib was cooked in an oven and not Bbq. Not worth the price. read more

Dee Willie's BBQ - How they cooked and burnt this brisket and still serve to guest , just know what you could get before coming - Barbeque Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

What is shown on TV is not what you get. The food is dry and what you get is not worth the money. Horrible food and service.

Used to love it here good barbecue for a good price but now that prices have gone up definitely not worth the money

This family owned business popped out of no where, but it surely isn't lackluster! My mother told me the other day I want to try this new place and me being myself knowing everywhere new was like where? She was like it's a BBQ place on s.zarazamora. So we piled in the car and headed here to a nice little BBQ place. The one thing that got my attention was the "Baked Potato Salad". I didn't try that tho, I tried their potato salad and mac and cheese, both to DIE FOR! The brisket is better than the sausage in my opinion, but I tried both! I also liked that the server immediately told me that the ribs were FRESH. I will go back for their banana pudding soon! read more

This BBQ place rocks! Older restaurant but super clean. Danielle took car of us when we visited. Super friendly and attentive as well. Food came quick with more than ample portions that many other BBQ restaurants could take note of. Nice smoky flavor, sauce on side and not dry. Sweet potato casserole better than any tasted before. Will be coming back! 2 Meat Plate recommended with 2 sides read more

Always passed this place and kept wanting to try them out. Mac and cheese was not creamy the ribs were good and so was the cream corn, my favorite. The brisket was a bit dry, but it was good. I'll be back to try different sides and the chicken and sausage. This was the location on Zarzamora. read more

Dee Willie's BBQ - 2 Meat Plate brisket, ribs, Mac & cheese and Cream Corn - Barbeque Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I believe from my experience the food is over priced for portions, like I did get a good amount of side, but the meats were very small; in fact I felt so jipped I had to ask for another rib, to even make myself feel a little better for the amount I was about to pay....so The picture shows a good amount of side items but the meat can hardly see cuz there wasn't much there.. read more

the food it absolutely delicious i love me some brisket and the loaded potato is to die for !!!! the service is great everybody is so friendly and welcoming it's really great. read more

Great tasting San Antonio BBQ. Best beef ribs in South Texas. Very friendly staff. Clean location. Darius and the other staff were very professional and personable. I will definitely continue to eat there! read more

We went on a Sunday with a fairly large group after Sunday worship. The service was five star, waitresses were on point. Attentive, fast and friendly. Everyone's food came out hot and delicious! I asked for sliced jalapeños and got a whole cup full. They don't skimp. Portion sizes are fantastic. The loaded brisket potato is to die for. Brisket nachos are amazing! Two and three meat plates leave you full for the rest of the day. Don't get me started on desert... they have a banana pudding that is out of this world. Definitely recommend and will for sure be back. read more

Came at the last minute an hour before closing, but were still welcomed and greeted with smiles and a friendly staff. We started eating before taking a picture as well...oops! We got ribs, sausage, a brisket sandwich, creamed corn, potato salad, and sweet tea. The ribs exceeded my expectations and were super, moist, tender, and fell off the bone without ease. The brisket was also great and the sausage was nice and peppery to my liking. The corn wasn't too sweet like I've had at other places either. The potato salad was creamy and not dry at all and had a subtle sweetness to it, but balanced and savory as well. All in all, we will come back! (: read more

Did Dee Willies change ownership? Food still good here on Zarzamora and service still good. But different people serving. read more

My first time visit to D-Willie's after seeing all the reviews on Texas Eats on KSAT. I was very impressed. I got marbled brisket, sausage, and baby back ribs. The brisket was very tender and moist. The sausage and ribs were also quite good. I got creamed corn and potato salad as sides and they were fantastic. I'll be happy to go back. read more

Great place for some Dino Ribs, service and staff are really friendly and attentive to your needs definitely recommend

Never got to try the food, waited 10-15 mins after paying before being told that the order could not be fulfilled. Don't waste your time

I have travelled to many BBQ restaurants in Texas and by far this is some of the best BBQ in the State. Brisket, ribs and jalapeno cheese sausage are my go to and everytime I visit it has never disappointed me . All the sides are so Delicious..... Especially the Sweet Potato Casserole . Now for the dessert, Banana Pudding is the best I've ever tasted . Staff is always so helpful and attentive it makes it a nice dinning experience.. I almost forgot to mention the Dino Rib .... It is a must try!!!! And a big Thank You to Mrs. Grace and Mr. Leo for making us feel so comfortable when dining in. And for always making sure everything is right. !!! Don't pass up the chance to eat some of the best BBQ!!! read more

OMG BECKY SO GURD! Just a heads up, don't call bc they will answer and leave you hanging. Just go direct to the location to order or dine in. Also, the prices are different from their online menu or homegirl gave herself a $14 tip. $79.99 for family and $22 for Dino rib even tho they told me $20 over the phone. Suspicious. Nevertheless, the food is always good. Like even as leftovers. And it's that Dino rib is everything, it's so hard to find beef ribs around town. So yay read more
