Was looking for a nice bbq spot to take my family as we’re new to Texas. Highly disappointed. Chicken was undercooked, Mac and cheese wasn’t good (even the kids didn’t like it), banana pudding taste like boxed pudding. The green beans and okra was good.

I recently visited Riscky’s BBQ and had an exceptional experience! The food was fantastic—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The service was equally impressive. An older gentleman, who I believe is the manager, went above and beyond to ensure my visit was pleasant. I have food allergies, and he was incredibly attentive, taking extra care to prevent cross-contamination and ensure everything was safe for me to eat. His kindness and attention to detail truly stood out. I highly recommend Riscky’s BBQ for both the delicious food and outstanding service!

I was cruising down Azle looking for a spot to get some quick lunch. I saw Riscky’s and recognized the name. I was excited to pull up. I went inside and was impressed with the different style of decor and was salivating over getting some good Q. I ordered the Friday special, sliced brisket with 2 sides and a small drink for 13.99. Girl at the counter did her job. I got some sweet tea and didn’t wait long for my name to be called. Then I looked at my plate…. About 2-3 tablespoons of so called potato salad which was just potato salad flavored mashed potatoes as the only thing I need to chew was the diced onion and pickles. Looked at my Mac-n-cheese and it looked like the boxed store brand but tasted worse and had no texture whatsoever. The star of the plate was a few carefully sliced cuts of brisket. Whoever sliced it was a magician cause as soon as I attempted to pick it up it just crumbled. Dry and bland which is surprising considering they sell seasonings there. I decided to make a sandwich out of it as the bread had more moisture than the brisket itself. I can probably microwave a better brisket.

Update: Marketing must be tired of using the same response over and over by now. Yes you missed the mark, no I won’t be back.

The food was decent. I got the potato salad, Jalepno sausage, ribs, fries, and beans. The fries were good, and the meat was decent. For me, the potato salad tastes like grease (I know it sounds weird). The baked beans taste like something that I can't quite put my finger on it. I love potato salad and beans, so I was salty when those items were a 1/10 do not recommend. Though it wasn't the best for me, I still encourage people to go to form their own opinion 😊😊😊

Discovered this place by accident and we are so pleased we found them! They’ve been in business for 97 years and are family owned. I had the burnt ends, and green beans, which were delicious! My husband had a chopped beef sandwich, which was excellent. Jody, the manager, was so welcoming and helpful with menu suggestions. We’ll definitely be back!
