First visit (Sunday), and I ordered the brisket sandwich to go. The staff were pleasant. They have live music to enjoy while you wait. I ate half there and saved the other half to enjoy at home with my daughter. This brisket sandwich was absolutely amazing! We both loved it, and I'm already looking forward to going back! read more

The all you can eat BBQ is such a steal! It's $27.99 for all you can eat BBQ, this includes, brisket, chicken, ribs, turkey, and sausage as well as all of the sides. You can order as much as you want! I do need to add that the sweet potato casserole is AMAZING, definitely was my favorite side, the turkey & sausage were probably my favorite meat, I wasn't the biggest fan of the brisket but that's just my preference, it wasn't bad though. The service was good too our waiter was attentive and kept coming back to ask what other food we wanted since it's all you can eat. This is a smaller place with not too much seating, but It's cool, and they do have other things on the menu such as BBQ plates, brisket nachos, and baked potatoes which you can add meat to it as well. read more

Texas D Willies Smokehouse - All you can eat BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - China Grove, Texas

Well another barbeque place my cousin suggested. It was closer to my parents house. Since I am in Texas they are known for barbeque. 2 disappointments was that they did not have the beef ribs. Which they were ranting about unfortunately you have to come super early. As for the all you can eat my other relatives I was dining in got their food first. Service was just so so because I didn't get my food the same time with my relatives. Ambience was not formal and the last time I went with my cousin to San Antonio Texas I went to Pinkerton barbeque in comparison to know. It was just ok.. Pinkerton was better. We went for dinner green beans was good. Don't get the all you can eat meat because they run out of certain meat especially turkey read more

Came here today with hoping for some good barbecue I ordered the brisket and the ribs. The brisket was a chuck roast. That was really dry. Couldn't even be passed off as a brisket and the ribs were dry as well. Terrible customer service. I wonder what happened to this place. read more

My review on this restaurant is not bad the food was amazing the brisket so cooked to perfection and my sides were nice and hot ,but the customer service needs work I am not going to name names but one of your employees was very rude and told me a few things that would make me not wanna go back to this location so I'm asking for you is to retrain your employees on customer service and care a little more about who walks in the doors read more

The BBQ is delicious! The pork belly and brisket sandwich is bomb. The lemonade is the perfect combination of tart and sweet and the service is commendable. It's our 2nd time here and it didn't disappoint. read more

For something that's AYCE, it's pretty darn good! We all opted for their AYCE BBQ cuz how can you not pass the chance on some TX BBQ? Firstly of all, their AYCE, you honestly CAN'T beat this deal for AYCE Texas BBQ! $27/person!! So yeah, TELL ME! We came here for my husbands 40th birthday mainly cuz of his favorite band the Doobie Brothers song "China Grove" since this location is located in China Grove haha... we got seated pretty quickly at around 5-530, the hostess/waitresses were really nice and helpful! They got orders out in a timely manner which is much appreciated with a hungry young kid haha Food: I ordered their brisket, ribs and chicken, with green beans and Mac and cheese to start. Some of the meats I've enjoyed were their brisket and chicken! Super tender and flavorful! Sausage was pretty on point too! Their steak was ok, a little on the dryer side but it was ok. Also... if you did do AYCE and just got so dang full just from the first round, they'll just knock off the AYCE price and just give you the reduced plated price for your order. So don't fret! But also... if you do AYCE you can't to-go any leftovers, they will remind you about that! Parking, seemed plenty, large rows to parking and room for trucks. Ambiance: just like your typical Texas saloon vibe, cozy and all but with ample seating, but at least we got there within a timeframe that wasn't extremely busy so that helped haha. Overall, would come back again! read more

Brisket and sausage very bland. Pinto beans hard andgreen beans came from a can. Disappointed. I won't be back.

The food was okay - the mac & cheese has very little cheese, kinda tasted like wet noodles. I like my BBQ'd sausage to have a lil snap to it when I bite into it & I like my brisket to have a flavorful bark. But that wasn't the case for my lunch here. The food makes for a 2 star experience, but the service was awesome. Our serve hustled from table to table and we never had to wait long for anything. read more

Texas D Willies Smokehouse - 2 meat special ! Sausage Link & 1/2 lb. Brisket with Mac and Cheese & Green Beans - Barbeque Near Me - China Grove, Texas

Don't go to this place. The food is awful and the atmosphere is worse. I have never felt so unwelcome anywhere in San Antonio. They over charged two black ministers and the called the police when they quietly complained. Black people are neither safe or welcome here. read more

This place sooo good! Quick service, good music, and delicious food. The ribs are soooo tender. My hubby always gets the brisket sandwich, which is also really good. They used to have really good banana pudding, but somethings changed so I'm not too hot on it anymore. But, the sweet potatoes are a dessert in its self, so it's a win win! Mac is also pretty good. My only complaint- it's always freezing in there! Bring a sweater lol read more

We had been passing this location for some time and finally had enough time to stop. It is easy to get to and has plenty of parking. The place's decor is nice and fitting for a BBQ joint. Nothing spectacular happened but nothing bad either. The BBQ was good but not enough for me to go out of the way to go back due to the area having so many other options. I saw other reviews that said the brisk was moist, but ours was dry. The ribs weren't bad and I got the loaded baked potato. In all, I would recommend this restaurant because everyone likes different kinds of BBQ and this might be your joint! read more

Clean, western style dining. I love the spool tables. The staff were very attentive. They were sadly out of chicken and turkey and the chef came out with his apologies. The brisket sliced and chopped was so tender. The sausage and sides were really good. I love that the plate came with jalapeños. I'm a fan of the green beans and the beans were excellent. My husband loved the baked potato salad. There is a fee for using credit just as a warning. We were prepared with cash. read more

Real good potato salad almost like my mom's. The food was good nice zip in the meat. Seasoned just right.

Good food. Clean. Friendly service. Occasionally run out of certain food items so selection can be limited.

We hadn't been here in a while but was definitely fantastic as always. The loaded baked potato was so good and filling! I got it with sausage but the brisket looked good too. My little got sausage tacos. The banana pudding was delicious although did taste a bit different than I remember. The service was quick and friendly. The restaurant itself is always clean but be prepared to leave smelling of bbq smoke. Perks of great bbq joints! read more

I had to go to China Grove instead of Winslow, Arizona. Picked up lunch for the family. It was very good. I'll be back.

Spent $48.00 for one suage and one beef ( Dino rib) plus sides. Unbelievable! Dino rib was nothing like the advertisement, lots of fat and little meat. Never going back! read more

This review is mainly about their half pound brisket sandwich. For the past four months I've met a friend at this Dee Willie's location in China Grove once a month and I always order the brisket sandwich and ask for the marbled, or fatty, slices of meat. The first one was spectacular. It was juicy, smoky, tender, and had great flavor. Since that first one, it's as if they ignored my request so I ended up with the lean and dry sliced meat. A really good brisket doesn't need barbecue sauce but today's brisket sandwich did. I was very disappointed with the meat but the bread for the sandwich they served was very tasty. As for the service, it's always good and the waiter was very polite and attentive, and the place is very clean. If my friend and I go back there, I'll have to insist on the marbled brisket and see what happens. Hopefully it will be like that first brisket sandwich I had. read more

Always fantastic service as well as food. We are regulars. Food is always good. My favorite is the loaded brisket potato. Their sweet potato casserole is amazing as well. The owners are nice & wonderful. Especially the wife. read more

I met up with some relatives for lunch March 29th. Three of us ordered the brisket plate and another order the rib plate. Oh my goodness, the brisket was sooooo good! Tasty and moist. The potato salad and mac and cheese were also good. I've eaten at the O'Conner location, and this is the first time I've been to this location. I will definitely be back! I live north of the Airport in SA and always make a point of driving to Dee Willis when I want BBQ. There are 2 very well known bbq restaurants very close to me. Unfortunately I do not like them. The quantity or quality and price is not as good at all. I rather drive to Dee Willie's for great bbq. Keep up the good work. read more

For my first time here I really enjoyed the food, it might be partially my fault for coming pretty late but for my first all you can eat BBQ. They didn't have anymore turkey or anymore ribs.. I was a little upset about this since I was paying $27.99 for it. Overall though I loved the taste of the bbq. It made me want to take some home, to bad they don't allow you to take leftovers home when you get the all you can eat special. read more

The food was absolutely delicious! We asked for lean brisket and it was amazingly moist. The ribs were just as delicious with the meat falling off the bone. The sausage and chicken were just as tasty! read more

Giving 2 stars since our order was accurate and amount of food is decent. But they served the DRIEST brisket I've ever had. Sausage was alright, potato salad tastes like normal store bought potato salad and macaroni tasted like velveeta Mac with a lot of pepper. The price didn't help the experience. Would've preferred a yummy steak plate from TX roadhouse for the same price read more

Texas D Willies Smokehouse - Barbeque Near Me - China Grove, Texas

place is a whole texas vibe, food was amazing. its not fake brisket you find at other places, Willies has Texas grade brisket. Vet friendly.

Slow service..small place can't accommodate larger parties of 10+..plan accordingly for a long wait.

Shipley Great portions! Delicious food! We go mostly for the sides and they NEVER disappoint! There is nothing wrong with the meats, they're really good we just love the sides more!!! read more

The barbecue chicken, bad taste little raw baked potato overcooked Not very good barbecue read more

The hospitality is nice. The sides were definitely the star of the show, but you dont come to an AYCE BBQ place for the sides. The meats were lacking. The brisket dry. The ribs could pass more like brisket than the brisket itself. But a rib should be a rib. The chicken was void of flavor. The sausage is the same way. The only meat that barely passes is the turkey. Tried the dessert with ice cream and it didnt seem homemade. Ice cream seemed like it came from a deep freeze while the cobbler was like a take and bake. For the sides, Sweet potato casserole and creamed corn were the highlights. I might just return for those items. read more

Stop regularly on our way to San Antonio. Their chopped BBQ sandwiches are so good and really moist & tender. You get a lot on the best toasted bun I've ever wrapped my lips around. You get extra containers of bbq sauce to go and pickles plus chopped onions for your sandwich. Rather addicting I would say! Good Texas smoky flavor! (Not liquid smoke). You gotta try! read more

Brisket was cold and hard. All the sides were cold. We saw our plate in the counter waiting to be delivered it our waiter was busy laughing and joking with other staff. Requested the food be warmed up but it came back no different. Oh by the way, be prepared to pay extra if using debt card. This is not posted anywhere. Won't return . read more

Good BBQ, good service, staff friendly. Bbut the side servings are to small, feel like I'm at a church plate sale

We usually go to the o'conner location , since we were in the area we tried this location , dee Willie's never disappoints but this location was a disappointment we ordered to go , the staff couldn't even get one of my order was correct had to drive back , the brisket was very bland and very dry . But the other meat I had ordered ( turkey and chicken) were on point as well as the sides were definitely delicious, highly recommend the baked potato salad and sweet potato. But maybe head over to there original location . read more

Had the most delicious brisket, ribs, and sausage plate!!! The brisket was so tender and had just the right amount of soft buttery fat on it & the rib was just picture perfect of what is expected when craving one!! Potato salad and beans delish not to mention the jalapeño and cheese sausage was superbly scrumptious!! Definitely a 10 star place!! For desert...sweet potato casserole and Banana pudding see pic!! Will be my bbq place from now on No Doubt! love the atmosphere plus Grace the owner is such a sweet kind lady just cleaning and serving at fast speeds!! other staff also courteous and attentive as well. Great job yall!! read more
