A quaint family owned bbq place. It's a small, but very personalized place with excellent service…read more I was seated right away and noticed families, seniors, and young people all enjoying their meal. I ordered the fresh made lemonade, which for me was the only real downfall. The "lemonade" had no lemon flavor. It's like what you would find at a fair, all sugar - no lemon. Definitely not worth the 3.75 I paid for it. For my meal I ordered the lean brisket sandwich. They make their own bbq sauce which is vinegar based, but just a hint on the sweet side. A really nice flavor balance! The sandwich comes with your choice of two sides, beans, rice, or potato salad. I'm not a fan of any of those, so I had a bag of chips. The sandwich was 8.75 - very reasonable for home smoked brisket. Over all, a good place to eat! I love supporting the little guys, and small businesses with good food. This place fits the bill!

We were so excited to try a new Korean chicken place and this was such a let down…read more The chicken is very plain and unseasoned. There is nothing Korean about it. It is chicken you can get from any other chicken place. It is freshly made, but that is the only positive I have for the chicken. We tried the strips which were dry and the wings. 2/5 We tried the soy garlic and red hot spicy sauces. The soy garlic was an okay processed sauce. The red hot smelled and tasted like it is ketchup based, so for me, gross! It was supposed to be really spicy and it was not. 1/5 The curly fries were hot, fresh, and seasoned well. 4/5 The mandu was store bought gyoza and it did not come with a dipping sauce as mandu usually does. 2/5 The lunch special was a good price but otherwise this is definitely overpriced. If you are ever in the San Antonio area, try Pelicana, it's AMAZING Korean chicken.

Teddys BBQ: A Disappointing Experience Unworthy of the Top 50…read moreTeddys BBQ, a celebrated winner of the "Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ Awards," arrived with high expectations that were, unfortunately, decimated by the actual experience. Arriving at 11:10 AM, just after opening, we anticipated fresh, high-quality smoked meats and homemade sides. What we received was an uninspiring meal that leads me to question the legitimacy of its Top 50 status--and frankly, its place in the Top 100. This visit was a letdown, especially compared to the twelve other far superior BBQ joints we tasted this past week. The Meats: Misses and One Minor Hit The foundation of the barbecue here was weak, suggesting corner-cutting or, worse, reheating of old product. * Brisket: This was the biggest disappointment. The slice was terrible--dry, lacking juice, and with a bark that was chewy rather than crisp. It looked and tasted suspiciously like leftovers reheated from the day before, which is unacceptable minutes after opening. * Ribs: Nothing special here. They lacked the depth of smoke flavor and suffered from a distracting, undesirable "hammy" taste. There wasn't much meat on the bone, and the glaze was applied too lightly, failing to add any necessary sweetness or texture. * Jalapeño Cheese Sausage: This was the sole highlight of the meat offerings. It was a nice standard sausage with a good peppery snap to the casing and a satisfying ooze of cheddar cheese. It offered a nice, reliable counterpoint to the lackluster smoked proteins. Failed Opportunity: The Texas Twinkie The infamous Texas Twinkie completely missed the mark. While the basic concept of a bacon-wrapped, cream-cheese-stuffed jalapeño is sound, the execution here was poor. The filling was overwhelmingly cream cheese, which completely sucked the flavor out of the jalapeño and bacon. It was a great opportunity wasted by failing to include a bit of smoked brisket or chicken to give it complexity. Sides: Bland, Bland, Bland The sides tasted uninspired, suggesting they were prepared from a can or box rather than crafted from scratch--an unforgivable sin for a purported Top 50 establishment. * Creamed Corn: It was creamy but utterly bland. It needed significant elevation--perhaps charring the corn kernels or adding some diced jalapeño pieces for heat and brightness. * Mexican Rice: This was mushy and flavorless. It desperately lacked the savory depth and spice expected of Mexican rice. A small addition of pork or brisket trimmings would have provided necessary flavor and prevented it from tasting so generic. Dessert: An Unprofessional Finish The Grapefruit Pie was the final letdown. The filling tasted okay, but the crust was clearly store-bought. To be considered a Texas elite, every component should be homemade and excellent. This felt like an amateur concession. Final Verdict Overall, Teddys BBQ was profoundly uninspiring. Given that we arrived right after opening, expecting the freshest quality, and having recently toured 12 genuinely great BBQ places, this location falls far short. It simply does not belong in the Top 50, or even the Top 100. Teddys has a lot of room for improvement if it wants to justify its ranking.

You queue up in the ordering line as you walk in. There were about a dozen people ahead of us so it gave us time to study the menu. Maybe 10 minutes at most. When arrive at the cashier, you place your order and pay. You're given your receipt and the cashier adds a hand-written order number on it. We grabbed a 6-top table for our party and waited for our order number to be called out. Took 10 minutes at most. We helped ourselves to silverware and extra BBQ sauce while we waited for our food. Our potato was piping hot. The potato is opened up and fluffed a bit. They add butter to one side and sour cream to the other side. They add bacon bits or similar, then pile on whatever meat you may have ordered. It ends up being huge! My wife and I split one. They're open from 11 am to 6 pm. We arrived at 4:30 and they were out of a number of things (ribs and some sides). Get there earlier in the day if you want maximum selection. We enjoyed our meal and will come back again.
