    I happened to be visiting the area and wanted to try some Texas Beef Brisket. That's what everyone talks about so I asked around and was recommended by two separate people (hotel rep and Uber driver) to try this place for the brisket. I gotta say, the brisket was something like I never tried before. The way that it's cooked is by far the tastiest brisket I've ever eaten. The Mac and cheese was ok but the greens were different (a good different). This place is also connected to a bar in which you utilize to eat your meal. All in all, I would recommend this place if you want some really good beef brisket.

    A Smokin' Good Time at The Pit Room - Houston's BBQ Haven If you're looking for some truly exceptional BBQ in Houston, look no further than The Pit Room. This no-frills joint offers up mouthwatering, smoky goodness that you won't want to miss. From the moment I walked in, the heavenly aroma of smoked meats wafted through the air, setting the stage for a memorable dining experience. The rustic, casual atmosphere perfectly complements the down-to-earth menu, allowing the focus to remain on the food. At The Pit Room, the meats are the stars, and they shine brightly. The brisket was tender and juicy, with a well-seasoned bark that added a delightful crunch. The pork ribs were equally impressive, boasting a perfect balance of smokiness and flavor that had me savoring every last bite. Not to be overlooked, the house-made sausage was a flavorful surprise that I would gladly order again. The sides were also noteworthy, with the classic coleslaw and tangy, slightly sweet baked beans providing the perfect accompaniment to the meaty main dishes. The mac 'n cheese, with its creamy, velvety texture, was another standout. And let's not forget the homemade pickles and jalapeños, which added a refreshing, tangy kick to the meal. The service at The Pit Room was warm and friendly, with knowledgeable staff who were happy to guide me through the menu and make recommendations based on my preferences. Despite the popularity of the place, I found the wait times to be reasonable, and my order was served promptly. In conclusion, The Pit Room is a must-visit for any BBQ aficionado in Houston. With its mouthwatering meats, tasty sides, and welcoming atmosphere, it's no wonder this spot has become a local favorite. Don't miss out on the chance to experience some of the best BBQ that Houston has to offer.

    Great brisket, great pulled pork, great pork ribs. Haven't tried the wagyu beef ribs but definitely in the plans. Nice patio and a separate enclosed bar, great for watching games.

    This place smells good and has happy hour specials. Food is pretty pricey and the lines are long.

  • 5/5 Sandra B. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a cool spot for families. Good BBQ and XL crawfish. Dogs are allowed on the patio too which is a bonus.

  • 5/5 Eduardo A. 2 years ago on Google
    I tried the 3 meats. Best brisket Ive ever had... sausages and ribs were also good but the brisket was outstanding. grabbed my food and went to the bar to enjoy a beer with my plate. Simply delicious. Long line but moves fast. People working there are absolutely friendly. Bartenders were so attentive. In all a fantastic experience. Came back to florida telling everyone about it.

    Newer management in the form of the owners of the adjacent, acclaimed The Pit Room Barbecue Restaurant. They have revamped most things here starting with the attitude they approach their customers with to the actual deck itself, with a major expansion. Unlike before; service is friendly, accommodating and attentive. Beer selection has broadened from the majority of Abita products to a balance of local breweries as well as some great national ones. So grab yourself some outstanding BBQ from next door and sip down a cold one, or several, with your ribs and brisket. Stay awhile and enjoy the atmosphere.

    I'm in awe! The best crawfish and crab spot this season. The flavor of these beauties are on spot. Cool atmosphere, really good service. I highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Reuben Lucas J. 1 year ago on Google
    Best Crawfish in Houston, hands down. Unfortunate the last batch had some tiny ones but the previous batch had lobster size crawfish. I'm sure that's just the nature of the season. Still the best tasting crawfish I've had.
