Very popular but just poorly run. There was about 15 open tables when I arrived just a total lack of hostess seating with about 30-40 people just waiting and wondering what was going on. The food was pretty good. There were enough servers and they served our food to a table next to us and then took it away fron them and brought it to us. Yikes. I would recommend visiting but not during peak times due to management issues.

Overall a great experience. Ambience was amazing. Food was exactly what you’d expect from an establishment with the name Texas and Barbecue in the name. Only downside is as the map went on and the establishment got a bit easier, the less we saw our server and they checked in. This in turn led to drinks remaining empty and us sitting waiting on them for a check. Don’t let this be the deciding point for you to decide if you enjoy this establishment. It truly is a great establishment and I look forward to patronizing it again on my next trip to the DC area.
