There are plenty of interesting options, making it easy for everyone in the group to find something appealing. We started with the Giant Pretzel and the Crispy Brussels Sprouts, and both were excellent. The pretzel was warm and flavorful, while the Brussels sprouts were crispy and well-seasoned. These appetizers ended up being some of the highlights of the meal. For my entrée, I ordered the pork ribs. The portion size was just right, leaving me satisfied without feeling overly full. The ribs were enjoyable, but they didn't quite measure up to what you'd find at a dedicated Texas barbecue joint. They were good, just not particularly memorable for a region known for exceptional barbecue. One of the restaurant's biggest strengths is its location. Situated right along the river and close to other shops and attractions, it's a great place to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. The outdoor setting and overall vibe create a fun, lively experience that encourages you to linger a little longer. Overall, The Woodshed Smokehouse is a fun destination with a fantastic location and a unique menu. While the food was solid, the restaurant's atmosphere and setting are what truly stand out. It's worth a visit if you're looking for a casual meal and an enjoyable place to spend an afternoon.

Had Bavette (hit if the day!) with Charred Broccolini which was phenomenal and reasonably priced. Then tried the Filet Migon with a Baby Cucumber Salad. The cucumber salad was light but has a bit of backend heat that was a fabulous twist. Ended on a Sundae that was very tasty and a well balanced non-alcoholic cocktail called the Baja Lemonade.

Worth the Drive Every Time - Reliable, Delicious BBQ for Family & Events!…read moreWe've been coming to Natty Flat Smokehouse on Hwy 281 for years, and it never disappoints. It's a bit of a drive from Granbury, but 100% worth it for consistently great Texas BBQ. The meats are always smoked perfectly with excellent flavor and tenderness, we love loading up on brisket, ribs, sausage, and whatever else looks good that day. We've dined in multiple times and also ordered big family plates to bring home for parties, holidays, and events. Everything travels well and still tastes fresh & huge hit with our whole crew. The sides are homemade and solid (the mac & cheese and potato salad get mentioned a lot in our house), and the portions are generous for the price. The rustic, down-home Texas atmosphere is part of the charm, friendly service, plenty of parking, and fun shops nearby (like the giant rocking chair spot). It feels like true Texas Hill Country hospitality. Whether you're stopping in for a quick lunch or catering a gathering, this place delivers "Dang Good BBQ" every visit. If you're anywhere near Lipan or Hwy 281, make the drive. You won't regret it we keep coming back and bringing friends/family with us!

I would like to personally thank Mesquite Pit for taking me on an emotional journey I did NOT sign…read moreup for. Picture this: I'm craving prime rib like it's my last meal on earth. I do the responsible thing and CALL AHEAD like a civilized human being. "Do y'all have prime rib?" I ask. "Yes," they say--with confidence. With conviction. With what I can only assume was zero verification. So I drive my hungry, hopeful self all the way there, already tasting that juicy, perfect bite in my mind... only to be told: "Oops, no they told you wrong, we dont have prime rib " Oops? That's not a minor inconvenience. That's betrayal. That's psychological damage. That's me sitting there questioning my life choices while staring at a menu I no longer trust. No apology worth mentioning, no effort to make it right--just vibes and disappointment. If you're going to crush someone's dinner dreams, at least have the decency to do it over the phone so I can cry in my car at home instead of your parking lot. 10/10 for building anticipation. 0/10 for delivering anything resembling prime rib. Would I come back? Only if I'm emotionally stronger.

Heard so much about the OG Burger that I had to give it a shot. The burger alone could warrant a 5 star review. Wife and I both said may be the best burger we've ever eaten Ordered the BBQ "Trinity" as well. Brisket amazing, ribs solid, and had the two sausages offered. Both what I expect from a high end spot. Sides wise, I'm a cole slaw guy and enjoyed their version. My girls had the Mac and both raved about it. Frito beans also a hit. Service with a smile. Cool very Texas vibe. Well done guys. I've only given out 5 stars to 2 others in the field(Goldie's and Leroy and Lewis). I'll be back!

As if that wasn't enough, they also offer a complimentary dessert bar. Parking can be a little challenging, and there's usually a line, but don't let that scare you away.

Great setting and establishment, I just wish the taste was there. This company knows how to draw you in with their appealing twinkies and brisket display. However, that's all. They could improve by adding more flavor. Maybe salt, pepper, hints of spices, garlic, onion powder, something. Eliminate the banana pudding and desserts. Update the sides by adding something different. With some change, they will run Terry Black some true competition.
