Excellent food and even better service. I live in Texas, but am visiting Norfolk for work and had to try this place. The brisket and chicken were delicious. The sides and sauces were top notch. The owner kept checking on me and offering up several BBQ sauces to try, which I highly recommend the “Dr Pepper BBQ Sauce”.

Great BBQ! I for one, love smoked turkey, and the Taste of Texas is my favorite! The meat is tender & juicy (unlike most places). All the sides were just as amazing! I really liked the collard greens and the savory baked beans. My husband had the piled-high bbq pork, and enjoyed every bite. Plenty of food, we took the remainder of our combo-meals home. Bring your appetite! Reasonably priced too. A great little place, tucked in the shopping plaza. We definitely will return!

The staff was very kind, and all the food we tried was delicious. The chicken was smoked first and then deep-fried, making the outside perfectly crispy—it was unlike any chicken I’ve ever had before, and it was absolutely amazing! The ribs were also the best I’ve ever had!

First, let’s all agree that BBQ I’d a hotly debated topic. I ‘I’ve in TX for many years and came to love the Central TX bbq over all others. With that said…
Taste of TX, is a fair representation of a TX-style bbq. And that’s what they advertise. It’s not the best TX bbq if had, but it’s the best I’ve had in VA.
The sides were very good; super yummy green beans, a bit over cooked but well seasoned which is uncommon for green beans. The Mac ‘n cheese was worth the selection. Again not the top-end, but the pasta was cooked right and the cheese sauce was creamy, cheesy and flavorful. My favorite side was the potato salad, chunks of new potatoes in a mayo-based dressing, well seasoned with a light herb. Very, very good.
The meats….again TX-style brisket, but very lacking on the traditional S&P rub. Good texture. Nicely rendered fat. Pretty smoke ring. No bark.
The jalapeño-cheddar sausage was good, however, I’m sure those are vendor bought, not in-house, so hard to mess that up. Still tasty.
Overall, I’m happy to have found a place that gives an option for BBQ that doesn’t require me to fire up my smoker and spend $80 and a whole day to smoke my own brisket.
Good service and proper TX country music to give the right atmosphere. A little high on the price scale, but I get it, bbq can get spendy.
Well done keep doing what you’re doing, just maybe add some more S&P to the rub.

Ok to start off this place is awesome! Ordered in and tried the brisket chopped, Mac and cheese, beans, potato salad, and coleslaw. Brisket needed absolutely no sauce it was sooo good by itself. Mac and cheese has a twist to it and it’s gooood. Potato salad is perfect. Beans omg I could eat a container of those by themselves they have the right amount of kick to them. The sweet potato rolls are like a biscuit a sweet but not too sweet flavorful filling biscuit. Amazing!!! The customer service was the cherry on top. Everyone’s so welcoming and loving and checked on us making sure we were good in between their busy agendas. Will be back and anybody I come across im sending here to come eat.

I googled places to eat after dropping my daughter and her friends off. This place popped up and was pretty close to where I was. I am so glad I stopped in!
It was not very expensive, I got a LOT of food. Asked the girl up front what’s good or what did she like, she mentioned the brisket and ribs. I’m not very picky so I told her to surprise me. I am very happy. It’s very good, and the peach whiskey sauce is so so so good.
Got mac and tater salad as my sides and those are also delicious!
Friendly and very good Highly recommend if you’re in the Lynhaven mall area and want some good eats!!!

The chopped brisket had potential but it fell a bit short of my expectations. The brisket itself was somewhat dry, and I felt it could really use a bit more seasoning to bring out its flavor. Thankfully, the BBQ sauce helped elevate the taste, making it much more enjoyable. The mac and cheese was decent but didn’t quite stand out. The fries were perfectly cooked and seasoned, providing a satisfying crunch. The staff were friendly.

I was so anxious to eat my brisket sandwich and collard greens, I forgot to take pics of my food. My apologies. All of my food was delicious.
Everyone who works here is polite, accommodating, and welcoming. Customer service is VERY important to me, and they exceeded my expectations. They also keep the place clean, including the restroom. I will definitely return to try other items on the menu.

I saw this place one day tucked off in the corner and googled it and say it was BBQ so I had to take a little trip and see what it was about and let me say the food is great from the wings that are smoked then dropped when ordered into hot grease to crisp the skin to the Briskets and pulled pork thay so tender and fall apart just touching it fries are fresh and crunchy the service is amazing I even watch several get turned away because they sell out quick so this place is definitely a place you need to come to I tried a little bit of everything I could and it was all amazing will be back for that Beef rib. But a must try again

If you are craving some flavorful, mouth-watering, can’t stop eating this, delicious barbecue then RUN don’t walk to A Taste of Texas! Their food is phenomenal, the owners are friendly ( there was some confusion on our order with the kids bacon mac n cheese bowl, we thought it came with a side, but it doesn’t. The owner brought us a basket of fries anyways which was super sweet ) I got a pulled pork sandwich and potato salad and my hubs got the 2 meat platter with baked beans and bacon mac n cheese as his sides. My sandwich was enormous & the red potato, potato salad was so good, as were the baked beans and mac n cheese (of course i tried his food ) the meat is so yummy on its own that you really don’t even need the sauce you get with it, but it’s there if you’d like to use it. GO NOW & GET SOME BBQ FROM THEM. YOU WON’T REGRET IT!!
