Such a total disappointment! For the second time in a little over a month and a half! Spent $41 on a to go order three meat combo for 1995 and extra ribs not even a pound for 1795. All the ribs were dried out with no flavor again. And the three meat combo portions were so tiny it was ridiculous! I used to love going to this place., but it looks like it's time to look for somewhere else to go can't believe I spent this much money, and disappointing this much! This was at the Richardson location off of Highway 75 in Richardson! Going downhill fast! read more

I love this place. Theres not a lot not to like about this place in my opinion. First off, the bread here is AMAZING. Piping hot and fresh, with a nice slab of butter on the side, I could literally just come here and straight up eat nothing but bread. The sides are very average but you can go back and pile up your plate again with all you can eat sides. The meat: the sausage (black pepper) is some of the best I've ever had. The ribs are pretty good too, though I often wonder why they only give me a small amount of their "special" BBQ sauce with the ribs. The sweet tea here is also probably the best I've ever had. Oh yea and it helps to have a buy one get one free coupon too! read more

The ribs were all bones. Will not be back. The line was to slow, check out person didn't know their job

I'm from the Galveston area and happened to be in the Katy area. I stopped in and was greeted with a friendly smile. I ordered my food to go and was offered a complimentary drink while I wait. The girl behind the counter was pretty busy but took the time to even get the drink for me. I was offered fresh warm bread while I waited also. I waited only a few minutes and when my food was ready the gentleman opened each container to confirm my order was correct. The gentleman noticed the ribs I received were pretty skinny and went to put more on my plate. Who does that? I had the most amazing customer service experience at this west park location in Katy and will definitely be back!! The staff went over and beyond what was expected!! read more

It's been way too long! Still my favorite bbq! Whenever I'm in Texas, we come here! Great value & great food!! My favorite is still the rib platter with all the sides you can fit on your plate!you can go back and get more if you like! And you can forget the pipping hot fresh rolls!! Soo yummy!!! May stop for some take out on our way out of town since we don't visit as much now from Cali! Friendly service! Must try!! read more

I've visited once a week for years and enjoy the fresh bread more than anything. Lately, they've been stingy with serving extra and only serve fake butter. Even when asked for bread, it takes forever to get any. Quality has gone down. Modern country music is loud and annoying. I unfortunately, I'm going to turn to their competition and leave them. Granbury will suffer because of their changes. read more

As much as I enjoy thier food I am very disappointed to see employees pulling masks up and down...standing in close groups not utilizing social distancing. How can you expect patrons to wear thier masks if the employees will not? read more

My friend: "You like?" Me: "I like!" well compare to my first experience in Sonny Bryans Smokehouse, this place was much better but still not the best I had in bay area. I think i give up on trying bbq in dallas.. I ordered BBQ ribs, I will say that the meat was good but I wish the sauce was good too... I don't know how to describe but I think it need something. They have a really good roll tho, it soft fluffy and fresh... the waiter come every so often to offer fresh rolls. When the food is not the best, I usually rate for the atmosphare to help the rating so here we go: The atmosphere is good for family and big group... If you have coupon, its really cheap buy one get one free... Lastly.. the service was v. friendly Will I go back in the future? I'm not sure read more

See all

I drove into the curbside parking area and called the number listed on the marker. Waited 20 minutes and called again to see how much longer the order was going to take. I ordered 1/2 pound each of baby back, Pork ribs, mild sausage and 6 rolls. The girl repeated my order. I paid with my credit card over the phone. I should have asked why the bill was $40 When I got home the rolls were extreme dark and dried out. Just shy of burned. Their rolls are usually beautifully done and pillowy soft! These were nothing like that! Unacceptable! I think they threw these in my bag to get rid of a bad batch. I got and paid for 1 pound of baby back and they were also dried out. I guess they don't have a manager or expeditor. The sausage was yummy however. Not a good experience! Wont be back! It was before 5:00 so maybe these were left over from lunch read more

Spring Creek has let us down. My husband ordered-to-go 2 pounds of chopped beef. Got home and it was a quart plastic container 3/4 full of soupy meat - lots of sauce and less meat. Two pounds cost $50. I'd be surprised if the container weighed 2 pounds but it was a large percentage sauce. There was sauce on the side as well. I sometimes get chopped beef from another restaurant near my home and their 2 pounds fills a gallon ziplock and is $10 cheaper. It's all meat - I add sauce to my liking that's provided on the side. I regret that I won't be back because of this. It was a very expensive lesson as to which restaurant to use from now on. We can usually eat off of $40 all week from the other place but this looks like 2 soggy sandwiches worth. Argh! It kills me to waste so much money. read more

After 30 years of positive experiences, I will never return. The barbecue was cold and hard. The manager admitted it was day old brisket. You know! Even worse were the staff read more

Awful. Never again. Dry Mac & cheese like it was old. Baked potato dry, roll had no butter just a waste of money. read more

We decided to give eat in a try...food was very good! Staff was also very good...The eat in experience beats the take out...

AWESOME FOOD! I really liked the set up because there was ZERO wait time. You walk in, order AND get your food right then. The brisket was amazing, melt in your mouth! read more

I've come to this particular location 3 times the first time was a complete success. The next two times were a disaster...sadly, I won't be returning to this location even though it's closest to me. The young lady I presume to be a "manager" or whomever she is should learn how to be more professional when customers are present. And possibly learn some stress management techniques rather than brushing off a for a small miscommunication regarding "asking for an additional ranch " sorry if you can't be bothered by such trivial things. As a business owner in the food industry, I consider it a blessing people are still able to eat at an establishment they work hard for their money and should have an experience that reflects that.

Service here is always horrible if you aren't missing bbq or silverware or even bread. There are still things they forget with your order. Some employees are wearing masks; some aren't. They don't enforce social distancing when people are all balled up outside the doors trying to place their order. Whoever is the owner of this Spring Creek should re-evaluate the managers who are running it as they're running it to the ground with the horrible customer service they provide. read more

Amazing staff and great food! Everyone here was very friendly and helpful. Love this place and will definitely be back soon :)

Horrible Spring Creek. Restaurant filled with smoke, slippery floors, and horrible customer service. We had to get up and ask for rolls, etc. multiple times throughout lunch. No one cares about working here and it is very apparent. The meat was sub par, and sides awful. I got a 3 meat plate that looked like a 2 meat and had to take my 90% fat brisket back. Will never be coming back to this location. read more

It was just ok. The string beans where the the best. The chicken was either I don't know what it was but it was mushy kids meal. Ribs for me over spiced, if only they would have barbecue this sauce on the ribs. read more

Being a native Texan, I have had my share of BBQ. I am usually a fan of little mom and pop shops, and not big on chain restaurants. The exception for me and my family is Spring Creek Barbeque. Their turkey is always a huge hit with my family. We cater Spring Creek for birthdays and some holidays, and order it to go for nights when we take a break from cooking. The sides are great and plentiful. Their cobbler with Blue Bell ice cream is always a big hit. We frequent the Grapevine location and they are always friendly and professional. read more

the service sucks, they never saw my order online, it took more than 1 hour for my order. I asked to speak to the manager and he never showed up, it is unacceptable. I do not recommend this place, at least an apology would do. read more

I've had good experience with Spring Creek BBQ at other locations, so I went in thinking of the same quality. I ordered the brisket and sausage plate. The brisket was unusually dry, but that wasn't the worst part. I thought something smelled rancid when I picked up a piece of the brisket, and it was a mistake to eat it. I got food poisoning the same night I went to the joint. Needless to say, I won't be coming to this location again. read more

Terrible BQ. I arrived at 2:25 and they dint have any bred ready. After I finish my meal the brought some bread and we only allowed 1 . The Barbecue sauce looks like water. I don't recommend it read more

The BBQ is pretty decent. I love the sausage and the brisket by the ribs are pretty Good as well. The service at this location wasn't that great. There was one young lady who was the only one that acknowledge I had entered and was waiting on to order at the To Go line. I wish I could remember her name. The restaurant was pretty empty so it wasn't as if I'd entered during lunch or dinner peak times. read more

Went there tonight for Valentine's Day. The place was pretty busy but we got through the line pretty quickly and the food was as good as it usually is there which is like 7/10 Barbeque and 1/10 sides. I'm giving 1 start so that hopefully ownership or management sees it and cares about this next part. The second we got there the first on our minds was "where's the bread?" We noticed no one had a role and we got worried. Then we spent the next hour and a half watching the bread lady. This young girl was WORKING HER ASS OFF!!! She was non stop putting bread in the basket and baking it back to back only for every fucking customer and their mother to stop her and demand they get their roles. And I understand where they were coming from because the rolls are a big part of the restaurant, however, and I'm not sure who messed up, but they were way behind on rolls. This girl would fill the basket and then run out completely within 30 seconds. Walking around and having people request 3-4-5-6 rolls. Then she'd return to the ovens and people would angrily come up to the bar and angrily snap at her and rudely question her on why they got skipped or why they didn't get any bread. And these people were literally yelling at her when she was walking around and stopping her and cornering her to get their damn bread. Then at 8:00 ( an hour before closing ) a manager came up to her and the other girl and told them to start shutting down bread. My wife and I literally looked at each other worries and starting laughing, thinking "this guy's a fucking moron". She tried shutting it down like he said but the demands for rolls did not stop. So, manager, listen up. STAND UP FOR YOUR EMPLOYEES. Do not let these customers treat this young lady like this, and talk to them. If they're bitching about the bread you should be talking to them to explain the situation. But it was obvious to us that you weren't paying attention at all and that is unacceptable. Do you job. Ownership, GET A NEW SYSTEM FOR BREAD!! A bigger oven, or two baskets, or one roll per customer per basket filling, SOMETHING! Nobody should have to work that hard and be treated so horribly because you can't keep up with the bread demand. Olive Garden never runs out of bread stick, red lobster never runs out of biscuits, and you shouldn't be running out of bread ever 5 minutes, only for the customer to wait another 10-15 minutes before there's more bread and it still being VERY likely they won't get any because they're all gone before the employee gets to them. I feel very bad for this young lady and I'm very upset and disappointed with management. Horrible. read more

Whoever was working the to go orders during the 1pm hour on 7/19/19, THANK YOU! Our food was freaking amazing!!! Our order was on point & 100% correct! THANK YOU! Keep up the great work! read more

Meal was so so. My review is more safety oriented. My father , who granted walks with a cane, fell in front of the kitchen doors. As people were assisting him up I overhead a girl go back in the kitchen and yell "Someone fell again". As we finally got Dad up stable and seated , a young girl of 7 or 8 slipped but regained her footing before hitting for floor. Everyone please be careful when walking around this dining area. They need to slick proof this worn floor read more

All of the meat cuts were delicious. Sides on the other hand are a different story. Though I enjoyed the "all you can on your plate sides" and fresh baked bread, the sides were lackluster, or they weren't fresh. Either or I still enjoyed the St. Louis ribs, spicy and mild sausage, and the marbled tri tip read more

I went to SpringCreek with my son. It's always been a favorite. But this time, the manager was AMAZING!! His name is Mike Quinney (Bedford Tx location). They call him Q. The store was so clean and the food very tasty (we ordered the ribs and combo plate). Q welcomed us with a big smile and answered all our questions. The hot roles were timely and delicious! This location has the best family atmosphere and barbeque in Dallas Fort Worth! I recommend stopping in and ask for Q! Enjoy! read more

This time I came for the ribs! Yesterday, I had Red Hot and Blue's ribs and although their meat fell right off the bone and has a choice of four sauces, Spring Creek's ribs are better in the way that the rib sauce was grilled onto it and they have additional sauce, heated up! When we usually come here, we didn't get free complimentary ice cream, but today we did. I don't care if they were pushing it to get rid of it before the expiration date (does ice cream expire?), but how can one say no to free Blue Bell Vanilla Ice Cream! read more

Came out for a meeting here and I didn't wanna have bbq since I was having fogo de chao for dinner. I ended up just getting the southwest salad. There were some crunch white pieces of lettuce, but not too many and grilled chicken was soooo good. It had pico de gallo on top and guacamole, black beans and cheese. mmm really good. Only sad part was they had no jalapeno ranch which was supposedly the signature dressing! :[ I had regular ranch read more

I ordered them through DoorDash and the food was excellent! Definitely recommend if you're craving some BBQ!

As far as chains go, this is one of the better BBQ ones. Not a fan of the Carolina-style pulled pork. Maybe because I'm a native Texan and I love Texas BBQ, or maybe I just don't like it. Recently they started offering you the choice between lean and moist brisket. This has to be in response to all the great smokehouses popping up. This has greatly improved what they offer because sometimes they would just give you what they have whether it was your preference or not. And because of that you don't have to drown it in sauce if you get some lean cut with no marbling or bark. The best dish here is definitely the ribs. The default for them is to put sauce on it, but they don't need them. Very flavorful and falls right off the bone. Although it doesn't do anything for me, everyone else I come with loves the hot fresh bread they come around to the tables with. Usually at least a couple times during your stay. read more

Cinco location gets. five stars across the board for, service, friendliness, the whole staff is super courteous with their main goal of providing quality food at a fair price served in an amazingly clean store with smiling faces.. don't forget to enjoy that second piece of bread and the yummy deserts. read more

Excellent barbeque. Yeah, it's a chain, but so what? Does that mean a place can't make good BBQ? These guys know how to crank out some serious 'que. I love the yardbird plate. All the meats here are cooked to perfection....nicely moist, good smokey flavor. The sauce is excellent. Don't pass on the sides -- green beans are a particular favorite of mine. Solid ranch beans, cole slaw, and so forth. Nice desserts. If you order a sandwich, be sure to get it all the way. (There's a fun yell that's a tradition that's gratis with this order.) As mentioned in other reviews, the yeast rolls are ridiculously awesome....there's usually a staff member walking around every few minutes to share hot, buttery buns from a giant bread basket. Brothers and sisters, it doesn't get better than that! This is a great place for group lunches. Get on the mailing list and you'll get the periodic coupon in the mail. Spring Creek BBQ makes a special effort to employ local high school kids -- for many, it's their first real job. I like that in a business. Also, the order process is perfect and swift. In a hurry? You can get "poundage to go". I wouldn't change a thing about Spring Creek BBQ....great food....great staff...just thinking about it makes me hungry for some yardbird. read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE, except for one thing mentioned in the last paragraph. My family and I have been coming here ever since I started eating solid foods. Kidding, but definitely for the last 20 years. I always get the ribs and sausage combo, with extra BBQ sauce please! Sides are unlimited- my favorite are the green beans (has bits of meat in it!) and cole slaw. They also have potato salad, mac-n-cheese, and pickles. On top of that, HOT FRESH BREAD! Omg, the rolls are melt in your mouth delicious, especially with a slab of butter. Large batches of them are being made and brought around every 10-15 minutes in a bread basket, so they are hot and fresh. So this review is sounding like a 5 star review, why only 4? 4 is actually being generous too only because this is the best BBQ in my opinion. Sadness, but sometimes, some of the workers seem racist and definitely treat my parents differently when they order. I'll just leave it at that. read more

Two stars because it is really ordinary cafeteria style BBQ. If I made this stuff at home, I would not be thinking, "I need open a restaurant." I would be thinking, "I need to keep working on my recipes." Bread made fresh on premise is a highlight. Service is friendly and the place is pretty clean. Sides were as you'd expect, just OK. BBQ ribs and brisket had a nice texture but lacked zing. Sauce choices were limited. So, OK for lunch since it's quick but not a place I'd otherwise recommend. read more

Went for a second time. The chicken was outstanding. The brisket was tough. Sides are decent. If you have a coupon it may be worth it, otherwise you can find better BBQ in Dallas. read more

Spring Creek Richardson is our favorite! They have the best customer service. They always treat us like family, especially the manager Alberto, he is the best. When it comes to BBQ, you can't beat their pricing and customer service! read more
