Old Hickory Inn Barbecue - Houston

Very friendly service, and food, was very affordable, taste great. Will return, but they also have other locations.

Pretty good-- but not excellent--BBQ in a city with a lot of quality BBQ. I am a recurring customer and staff is friendly and helpful. Today I ordered online. My bagged duck sat right in front of the person who outputs orders opposite the end of the cash register. Without asking me, she said politely that everything I need was in the bag. But at home I found that it contains zero toppings (pickles, onions, jalapenos, etc.). Maybe it was a miscommunication or a one-time belief. Am I wrong for the assumption that some onions or pickles with $15 to-go escape?

This is a great place that has been here since the 60s. Friendly service. Food is always excellent. Cooked right in the house.

Fantastic! I had just a few minutes for lunch, and the only thing I had to wait for was the fries, which were perfect. The chopped beef sandwich was also very tasty, although it had a bit more sauce than I usually prefer, but that’s what napkins are for, right? Luckily, their sauce is better than what you find at most BBQ places—it's not overly sweet. I ended up dousing everything in Tabasco.

Excellent service! Be sure to try their brisket and fried okra—they're a must!
