Food was good, service was good, loved nearby location! Cashier was helpful with recommendations for my first visit.
The food is always good, never skimp out on portioning and food is fresh. Call in orders are always fast and don't have to wait a ridiculous amount of time.
I loooooove their wings. I get them through drive thru all the time. Wing sauces are super delicious. Wings are big and juicy. Good amount of chicken. Haven't tried their BBQ, but I'm a big wing fan
The food was good. The bake potato with brisket was great. The restaurant was very busy in the evening. Customer service was good and very helpful of the food. I didn't care for the chicken wings personally but I'm very particular about my wings.
I pass RackShack BBQ every day on the way home from work and never bothered to turn in until last week for lunch. I'm glad I did because my "Chow Down" baked potato was great! I had it with Pulled Pork and the meat was juicy and the potato was big and filling. Price may be a concern for whoever's reading this review. I've been to BBQ places that offer a one-meat baked potato for less than Rackshack. But I've also eaten places that have charged me more! I guess that depends on you. It was $11ish for a one-meat baked potato at RackShack and it was a satisfying meal so I think I got my money's worth. But some may say that's too much and I will somewhat agree.
Food is down home southern flavor, the outside is the definition of don't judge a book by it cover, does look like much but the food amazing!
Ok folks let me first say I'm not a 'die hard' fan of BBQ (I know and Houston is filled with BBQ locations). My coworkers has been raving about this place and I finally decided to give it a try Thursday for lunch. It's a neighborhood-feel of an eatery, there was plenty of seating and the menu is posted on a board as you walk in. I had looked at the menu prior to arriving, so I was definitely ordering the chopped beef baked potato, which I ordered, but then noticed they had wings (variety of flavors), and fried okra so I had to try these, and let me tell you how happy I was that I did so! The baked potato was huge, covered in mounds of chopped beef that it literally looked like a pile of chopped beef. I poured their bbq sauce on the potato and it tasted amazingly good! The beef was moist, potato was cooked perfectly and they did not skimp on the meat, cheese, butter or sour cream! I left off the chives as I'm not a fan. I only ate maybe 4 fork full before I proceeded to the fried okra, and a little insight about me, I'm a snoot about my fried okra. The fried okra here had to be the best I've ever had! The batter was coated just right, seasoned with salt and pepper, simple yet so good!! I couldn't stop popping them in my mouth but forced myself to because I wanted to try the mango habanero wings. Heat wise, it could've been spicier, but they were crispy and still very good. The staff that took our orders at the counter was very nice and they brought the food to our table. Overall, I will definitely return and try the rest of the many options on their menu.
