    Food on par with some of the top places in DFW. Highly recommend giving them a try. Surprised they're not bigger.

    Please excuse my lengthy review. I don't normally leave reviews but I had to come on here and say…read morethis. I want to start off by thanking Jenny. She was not only the most hospitable but warm and inviting server I have ever had. She treated me as a mother would treat one of their own. Now let me get into the food, for starters the bread was warm and fresh. Super soft on the inside with a nice crisp bite on the outside. Pairs well with they're in house bbq sauce. Then the sweet tea. As a true southerner at heart that was some of the best sweet tea I've had from a restaurant. Then we had the honor of getting to try every side they have to offer. The top 3 in my opinion hands down are the beans,okra,and and potato salad. Must try. We got the 2 meat option I got the sliced brisket and turkey and my girlfriend got the chopped brisket and peppered sausage and I will say this is the best barbecue I've had in my entire life. The turkey was juicy and had amazing flavor. The brisket was super tender with a good crust and the sausage melts in your mouth. And to finish off the meal we got their banana pudding and that was not only the perfect way to end the meal but it reminded me of memaws puddin. 10/10 would recommend this place to anyone. Bexar the manager on duty came up to our table half way through the meal and checked on us. He was extremely friendly and very polite and professional. At the end of the meal they gave us bread to take home so they didn't have to throw it out. Once again this place is the best restaurant I've ever been to. To finish off the review I want to get into the aesthetic of the place it's a very southern rustic home feeling. The place was buzzing but not loud and this was all a hour before close.

    Shady Oak originally had a location in Plano around eight years ago, and they were hands down my…read morefavorite spot. I was thrilled to come across this place, even though I only had about an hour before they closed. The staff was incredibly welcoming and really elevated the experience. I went with my usual order--St. Louis ribs with okra and apples on the side--and it was every bit as good as I remembered. Having grown up in Kansas City, I have pretty high standards when it comes to BBQ, and Shady Oak is the closest thing I've found to authentic KC-style barbecue. My only wish is that they'd open more locations closer to me in Dallas.

    Oh my gosh what a great find!! We've been out of Texas for a while and I had been really craving…read moregood brisket and WE FOUND SOME at Lil JJs! We were meeting some friends for a late lunch and needed somewhere in the area and decided to give this place a shot, When we walked in (2:00 on a Tuesday) we were the only ones there. We were happily greeted and invited to take our time deciding. I had the sliced brisket sandwich & hubby had the Lil JJ's sandwich which was chopped brisket & sausage - plus an order of fries. My brisket sandwich was PACKED with juicy, perfectly cooked slices - hubby's was overflowing with meat - he says it was the best sandwich he's had in a long time! The sauce is available in little containers in the dining room & was slightly sweet (I used TWO on my sandwich because it was so good). Even the buns got some love with a little buttery toasting. Our friends got combo plates with 1/2 chicken, brisket, sausage, & turkey with sides of beans & potatoe salad and they were very impressed as well. Skeeter came out a couple of times to talk to us and make sure we were happy. Friendly folks & great food?? We weren't just happy, we were ecstatic

    There are so many barbecue restaurants to choose from in the metroplex, and so many of them are…read moretrending or popular. We can also admit that many are overrated. THIS place contends with the best of them! One thing we noted is that some places grill one meat well, but the rest are just okay. For example, good ribs and so-so brisket. That's not the case here! Everything we tried was incredibly tender! It's still tender despite warming it up the next day! There are ample sides. We tried macaroni and cheese and fried okra. Both were good. There was ample seating, extra parking, and the staff made us feel like we were in a family member's backyard. They were friendly and helpful. Please try Lil JJ's!
