Dip Net Fish Barn - Sulphur Springs

We were hungry for meat, been in Galveston for the last 7 days , we ate good but mostly seafood and a lot of it !! So looked on TripAdvisor to find good meat , And Big Smiths looked good , so off we went !! And it was the best BBQ I have ever had in Texas !! We both ordered 1/2 rack of Pork Ribs the were fork tender and so good !!

This is the most friendliest nicest people that do what they say they’re going to do if you ever have a problem you just call them and they will make it right first class treatment tonight. Marinate in here for 15 years can’t brag enough.

Very busy restaurant. We were seated quickly and the server was quick and friendly. The pork ribs were the best part of the food we had. The onion ring appetizer is a huge portion and very tasty. Even the ribs were at least twice the serving you would get at other restaurants. Sauce is good, hush puppies are good. Catfish was hot and crispy, above average. Not the best I’ve had, but very good. Tea was fresh and our glasses were never empty. Mac and cheese was ok....opt for a different side item. Chopped sandwich was excellent. Overall very good food and service. Restaurant was packed and extremely warm inside......so just be prepared for that.

Nice, helpful hostess took my to go order and it came fairly quickly. Three meat plate was 15.95. I expected more meat. Sausage was dry from sitting around. Lots of okra undercooked, almost raw. Tiny portion of squash overcooked. We go there only because it's on the way home.

The BBQ sauce is the bomb. Great smokey sweet heat flavor to it. My go to item is the Brisket Tacos: 3 Tortillas with crunchy onion, topped with brisket, then cheese. Side order of choice! Best BBQ tacos I have ever eaten. I have also had the ribs and brisket ....something to savor!! Restaurant has excellent atmosphere and is right up the road from Lake Fork/Yantis!! Great place to fill a belly after the day on the lake!
