    The menu is unique and a little difficult to categorize. It feels like a blend of Texas barbecue,…read moreNew American cuisine, and fast-casual dining. 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.

The chopped brisket sandwich is a must try and full of smoky flavor. Service was friendly and the outdoor seating made the whole experience even better. Definitely a great spot in Fort Worth for barbecue and live music. The chips that came with the sandwich are delicious!

    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.

    I came on a Tuesday and ordered the 2 steaks for $49 and two entrees for $25 with 2 kids meals…read more Kids meals were very generous which is great. The two entrees we ordered for our preteens and it was also a generous portion but they finished it! Two adults ordered the filet steaks. Mine cooked medium was a bit dry. The other cooked medium rare was much juicier. So lean towards medium rare. The shape of the filet was wonky. I'm used to a firm tall filet. I think I saw these are cut in house? Maybe that's why it was wonky. It tasted good tons of grill/smoke flavor which I could have done at home. I don't usually order steak here and I probably won't again. But the sides are great- the green beans have brisket and bacon? Not sure but they were yummy. The baked potato only came with sour cream and cheese. Maybe butter too but it must have melted on the line. No bacon or chives... I was happy to share this restaurant with my family but note to self- try somewhere else next time in town. Ambiance was chill and it's nice that they close at 8:30. Keeps the trouble out. Our server wasn't the best but it looked like other tables had good service.

Welcoming clean and cozy ambiance. The quality of the Meats Wow!! Spectacular Sides and overall flavors make it a Destination BBQ. The Welcome is truly sincere (thanks Mark). The Tour of the Smokers by Alex, the Bar by Lexi and the presence of Dayne himself make this culinary experience caring and memorable. With friends visiting from Miami FL the "Fort Worth The Wait" platter was perfect for us 4. Even the Sweet Tea is spectacular! We liked it so much that took another Fort Worth The Wait platter for our Son in Prosper. The special of the day was an exotic and delicious Brisket Lumpia - Wow!! Wash it down with a TX Margarita from bartender Lexi. A Truly memorable experience!! Thanks Dayne; please come to Prosper!

    So had to do a follow up on the first and second reviews for consistency…read more Dayne's has consistently been on point no matter what I've ordered. Definitely in the my top 5 in the state. Continuing to add a fun variety of tasty sides and execution of those has been legit (lumpia or lumpia Shanghai). A TX BBQ twist on Filipino version of a pork filled egg roll. The pork belly was really good as well, prefer the beef burnt ends personally but really good nonetheless. I was last one in and last one out on this day so hard to grade service as they were cleaning up.
