Holy Moley! If you’re here from a TikTok, make the drive, stop thinking about it and just do it.
We came from the Manvel Area so as I write this google review an hour and 12 minutes from my house, just know every mile & every minute was worth it. The service was friendly, the food came out at different times but that’s okay it didn’t take long for everything to come out at all. Outdoor seating with fans so it wasn’t hot. Free refills on soda. I would 100% recommend this place the food was out of this world! We will be back!
I had brisket and Mac, my fiance had the 2 meat plate (brisket and turkey which was extremely juicy btw) my dad had a brisket sandwich we shared the sides
Cabbage, Potato casserole, pinto beans, and a bread pudding.
My uncle said he wasn’t hungry but when the food came out he picked off of our plates. We ended up with leftovers that could still feed 2!
Get here early so you don’t miss out on certain stuff before they sell out! Yum yum yummy!!

Hands down best Mac & Cheese I’ve had. The smoked meatloaf was huge, juicy & delicious. The ribbon fries were the perfect crunch. Brisket sandwich was super soft. Service was very friendly and fast.

The photos do not do this place justice, but this picture had the birthday candles in it. We drove a little over 2 hours from San Antonio to try this place after seeing a video online. It was worth the drive. We got to try both sausages, the brisket, and the ribs. All were great. We also got the cabbage, mac and cheese, coleslaw, ribbon fries, and the baked potato casserole. The baked potato casserole won for me! It was fresh, hot, and tasty! As for the candles, my husband is not a sweets person, so they were kind enough to add candles into his ribs and we got to sing Happy Birthday!! Definitely recommend this place.

What a gem to find in Wharton!! Man at the ordering window was fabulous!! Great customer service!!! Awesome food!!!!! I received Veteran’s Discount as well! I had the Friday Special. The brisket enchiladas covered with cheese and brisket and two sides. I had cabbage with brisket pieces and Mac N Cheese. Coworker had the Mac Daddy Brisket Burrito, with Texican Street Corn and Potatoes with Onions. Better arrive when it opens at 11 AM, before they sell out!

For those of you looking for the enchiladas, they are only available on Friday.
But do not fret, I tried the Brisket, bean and cheese burrito. My goodness, it was delicious.
Worth the drive and I highly recommend you give them a try.
I’ll be back for the enchiladas.

Excellence Review for Damon’s Real Texas BBQ – A Lifesaver for Gluten-Free Dining!
Damon’s Real Texas BBQ is an absolute standout when it comes to incredible food and exceptional service. As someone with a severe gluten allergy, I’m always cautious about where I eat, but Damon’s went above and beyond to make sure I had a safe and enjoyable experience.
A huge shoutout to Shelly, who was nothing short of amazing! She was attentive, knowledgeable, and incredibly kind, taking the time to ensure my meal was completely gluten-free and prepared safely. Her attention to detail and genuine care made all the difference, giving me peace of mind while enjoying my food.
The fact that Damon’s offers a gluten-free menu is a game-changer. Finding high-quality BBQ that accommodates severe allergies is rare, but they do it flawlessly. The brisket, ribs, and sausage were perfectly smoked and packed with flavor, and I never once had to worry about cross-contamination.
If you have a severe gluten allergy or just appreciate outstanding BBQ and top-notch service, Damon’s is the place to go. And if you have the pleasure of being served by Shelly, you’re in for an even better experience. Highly recommended—I’ll definitely be back!

I’m surprised I hadn’t heard of this place until a couple of weeks ago, since they have been around for over two years, and it’s so close! My wife and I decided to make the 30-minute drive to Wharton, and we’re so glad we did. This is just a little place with a covered patio as the dining area, but don’t let that fool you because this place is great. I had a two-meat plate with my traditional brisket and jalapeño sausage first meal. I had mac&cheese and a potato casserole as my sides. Homemade pickles and pickled red onions are free and recommended. My wife decided to try something different and got their brisket nachos. Everything was great! The brisket was the very tender, melt-in-your-mouth variety (even the bark was moist)! The sausage was homemade and larger than the normal links that you get at other places. It was very good and I liked that it wasn’t over-the-top spicy. Both of my sides were well above average. My wife’s nachos were also outstanding. The base of the “nachos” are freshly fried spiral potatoes, instead of corn chips. They are topped with shredded brisket, nacho cheese, sour cream, and BBQ sauce. They are more than a meal for one person, and I liked that there were so many flavors that not every bite was the same. The service was a little slow, but only because, just as we showed up, two other larger parties showed up at the same time, but it wasn’t anything to really complain about. Somebody at another table ordered a sandwich called The Duke, which looked incredible. I’m not exactly sure what was on it, besides sausage, but it was the tallest meat sandwich I have ever seen. He said it was incredible, and I look forward to getting that next time I make that drive out to Wharton. That won’t be too far in the future! Did I say it was under $20/person? That’s pretty reasonable for good BBQ these days.

Eclectic and traditional BBQ provided by friendly staff at a small roadside location with outdoor seating. We had Texas nachos, brisket, ribs, Mac n cheese, and baked potato casserole. Everyone was delicious! We were fortunate to catch them on their last day before closing for a month to serve their delicious BBQ at the Wharton Antique Show.
