Vic's -b-que - Austin

Vic's is conveniently located near my home, so I plan to return frequently. While it may not be the absolute best BBQ I've ever had, it's definitely very good. The sides could use a bit more attention, but the service was solid. As I mentioned, I will definitely be coming back—it's my new go-to spot for delicious BBQ. I also intend to update this review, as I'm sure I'll have more positive things to share in the future.

The restaurant has a very peaceful, family-friendly atmosphere. While the food is slightly on the pricey side, it is quite good barbecue. They offer a variety of side dishes as well as delicious pies.

As for the vegetables, the corn and green beans were rather basic, reminiscent of cafeteria food; they seemed to be simply boiled with minimal seasoning—nothing special. When we visited, there was some sort of local charity meeting happening, making the restaurant feel quite crowded, but only about four tables were occupied by diners while around twenty people were attending the meeting. The dining area has a distinctly Texan vibe, decorated with plenty of cowboy and Southwestern elements. There’s even a shrine-like display of John Wayne photos, complete with hot sauce hangers and other memorabilia. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. Pricing was reasonable—my meal, along with my wife’s burger and three drinks, totaled under $45. I would definitely return if I’m in the area again.

Amazing food! Hands down great ? meat ? . Old school look. But worth every penny!!!

Mediocre food with poor customer service. Employees are curt with customers and seem unhappy. Food was edible but it was the worst brisket I've had in Austin so far. Brisket had very little flavor and an odd texture. Chicken servings were tiny and mostly bone. The pork ribs were the best things we ordered but even they were only average and a Texas bbq place that can't do beef right isn't worth a second visit.
