Sista White's Cafe

Not the best bbq I've had...but it's damn good. And the value? Off the charts! Save room for the banana pudding.

Damn good BBQ. Staff is friendly and helpful. The lady taking orders is always kind and a happy smile to greet mid work day. Affordable priced. I would say $10 for a full stomach. Don't forget to get dem taters. Thanks. Only open weekdays by the way...

Just ate here! Little hole in wall spot you don’t want to miss! The smoked chicken was my fav and my husband is a major foodie and said the pork was fantastic! Sides were amazing and their in house bbq sauce was perfect! Eat here!

There should be no negative reviews on here. So so good. First time & it was the best. We went a 2nd time & still very good. Ribs were so flavorful. The brisket was so flavorful. The bbq has a smoked flavor that is to die for. Mac & cheese is definitely bomb. The negative people need to choose a better life ! Lol

Great BBQ! Don’t let the building fool you! Some of the best ribs I’ve ever had. Macaroni and cheese was delicious. Rachel was courteous and made us feel right at home. I needed somewhere close to FLNG, and was floored by how good the food is. Head there early. There is always a line and parking is a premium.

Rachel is at the register with a disarming smile and friendly greeting. You can't help but love the place just because of her. Then you taste Pitmaster Previn's 'Que, oh my goodness! It's all consistently excellent. The brisket and ribs are amazing. You can't miss on any of the sides either, it's like your grandma's in the kitchen!

Loved it. Very nice people smiling faces and all. The BBQ Brisket was awsome and so was the Sausage and rest of the fixins. Do yourself a favor and go experience the food and friendly faces.

Man oh man! Food is wonderful. Come hungry and leave satisfied. They treat you like your best friends. Family oriented. Did I mention food is delicious? Ribs are mm mm mm!

This little place is crazy good. No wonder it's a local favorite. The brisket is cooked to perfection, the green beans were perfect. I loved how friendly the staff was.

First time stopping by as I was send to the area for a 1 day job(im from houston). The lady that was taking orders and checking out is the nicest person I have meet in a long time. Very welcoming and friendly. Food is great. Will come again just for the bubbly attitude of the person up front.

Greatest bbq in lake Jackson, wife had chicken and brisket and I had brisket and sausage. Both were great with sides potato salad and pino beans. BBQ every week and all know where.

Amazing ribs that fall off the bone. Tender and juicy brisket. Numerous side choices-all fantastic! Sandwiches are great! Special treat when my family gets their bbq for dinner

Absolutely the best barbeque in brazoria county, if not Texas. Everything tastes amazing and you get plenty for not a lot of money. Staff is great, and you get the small town friendliness you can only get in a family owned business. This place is a must try if you're in southern brazoria county.

First time to eat here. The food is GREAT and well priced. I don't care for most Bbq places as the food is usually dry and over priced for the quality. So this place was a nice change from that. It had great food and the service was friendly.

So delicious! Amazing customer service!! Loved the food. The meats are juicy, seasoned, and excellent. Mac-n-cheese was tasty. Dem Tators (bottom right in my picture), were not very good in my opinion but they were unique and I can’t say they were necessarily bad. Highly recommend this awesome restaurant.

Outstanding BBQ! The best in all of Southern Brazoria County - but definitely worth the drive from wherever you are! Go for the Pork Ribs and of course treat yourself to some brisket with a Beautiful smoke ring :) Tea is the best in town

12/15/23 update. Service didn’t want as usual. Love this place and the people more. See video- how tender can you actually smoke brisket? This … is the answer. The taste is even better than the serving temp!! Most important part- customer service- was outstanding as always. Little gem of a place. When you walk in- you know the money is going to local tuition, an offering plate, and a group of families. Small business all the way. Good food!! Greens were perfectly spiced and cooked. Dem taters we’re yummy! Moist brisket cut, little on the chewy side, also, little short for me on the serving size, but for the price was a good value. The ribs were spot on as always. Nice black pepper rub.

The brisket is a must in this place, the price and the quality of the food is awesome 👏🏻 Delicious food and excellent service

This place is so good. I had to leave a review, I’ve never left a review. I had the 2 meat plate brisket and ribs with greens and beans. The sides are simple but the ribs were perfectly seasoned and fell off the bone, lots of flavor and the brisket is moist and flavorful. Do yourself a favor and stop by here if you have a chance!

We just happened upon this little place while traveling and decided to give it a try. I kid you not, the smoke flavor in their brisket is beyond amazing. The meat on their ribs just fall off the bone. We try BBQ joints all across the country and this one is on the top of our favorites. However, what I liked the most is the hospitality of the employees. Job well done guys!

Awesome 👍😎 BBQ 😋!!! If you ever get stuck here because of the train 🚃 🚆🚂, Do yourself the favor and come on in here 😂, The Food is Delicious 😋🤤 since 1955, Also say hi to Rachel shes incredible 🤩😻😍

Best BBQ I have been so far. Only serve lunch. You can't go wrong!

Great BBQ. Closes @ 2 pm m-f. Best days for smaller crowds is Mon and Tues.

No better customer service at any other restaurant. Every time you enter Sista Whites they are the most friendly and helpful. I called this morning before 8:00 expecting a recording. To my surprise I got the same cheery voice as when I went in, and placed a catering order for 17 that will be ready with a smile at 11:00. They have never disappointed!

This place is SO special! Not only is the staff KIND but they anticipate your needs before you express them! You drop a fork and she’s right next to you with a new one. You’ve finished eating and before you even make it to the door you’re given a warm goodbye and your table is clean. What am incredible experience with warm and wonderful people. Not to mention THE BEST BBQ EVER!

Hands down, the best BBQ in the area. There were 2 other local places I have been in the area and the comparison isn't even close. I had the ribs and sausage and the brisket was sold out which is always a good sign. The meat was decent size and fairly priced and the sides were good too. Not only the food, the customer service was top notch -- I will be returning for sure.

Very good BBQ! I knew it was going to be good when I stepped into the parking lot. I could smell the flavor. I have traveled all across Texas and had all of the famous BBQ joints, the big guys and little guys and this place should be right there with them for every award and honor. Absolutely great, friendly, small town, down home service, great atmosphere, big time BBQ!!! I had the 2 meat plate with brisket, sausage, potato salad and beans. It was all amazing. Can’t wait to go back. Thanks for making my day when I came in.

Coming from Georgia I have a pretty high bar for BBQ and this place excels! Smelled great just walking in, greeted by a super friendly lady at the counter and my food came out in a couple minutes. Everything was really good, will go again.

Pretty good for being this far out... Very clean inside, very generous proportions and honestly too cheap for all of the food that I got. Lady that runs the counter was over the top friendly to the point that it was almost sarcastic funny. Ribs were good! better than the brisket, which was dry and a bit tough. greens were light on salt and butter, Mac-n-cheese needed some pepper and some time in the smoker to thicken up. BBQ sauce is too sweet for texas, needs more kick and twang. the brisket is dry because its cooking too hot, they need to get a better temp probe and keep it 225- 250°. Even better yet wrap it during the stall with some apple cider vinegar or molasses to make it juicy.

Excellent place! Best BBQ we had our whole trip. The pulled pork and ribs were excellent. The staff was very accommodating, kind and put up with our huge group of kids. Thanks!

This is a great BBQ place. The brisquit is perfect and the sides have flavor. It is a "hole in the wall" place with character and good service and staff. They close around 2 pm, so you have to get there for lunch. Worth the stop...

The barbecue was very good. it was very busy but they served the food really fast and in a timely manner. the lady that takes orders is super nice and welcoming would definitely go back

Brisket was dry but the ribs made up for it, the potato stuff, presentation needs some work. But the lady at the cash register nicest person and fastest talker ive ever met! Ill definitely go again

I like their chicken and sides, but not a big fan of the brisket. I know this sounds a little trivial but don’t eat inside unless you want to smell like bbq the rest of the day. I usually don’t mind, but when I have work meetings later I feel like I smell like a bbq pit. Service is fantastic and the food gets to you fast. Wish they were a little closer.

Sometimes their food is delicious, other times it just falls flat, today was a flat and dry day. We ordered through waitr, which was a good and bad thing, when it arrived and we saw what was in the boxes we were certainly disappointed. This seems to be their norm, hit and miss, not really consistent in the quality of the food they put out there.

I had a to go order. I had a 2 meat plate brisket and sausage with potato salad/ Mac n cheese. The brisket wasn’t trimmed enough and the Mac n cheese was runny.

Pros: The Staff was friendly and the Service is fast. Cons: The chopped beef Sandwich was not good. The serving was small in comparison to the bun(Very flatt) and had a weird texture. It is also served on the wrong type of Bun.

I’m sorry, but this food is disgusting. No idea how it’s called bbq or has good reviews! Worst “bbq” & sides I’ve ever had. The prices are low but I know why now. The lady working up front is extremely nice though.

I had a craving for BBQ today, so for lunch, I decided to try out Sista White's due to all of the 5 star reviews I read. So, I picked up a two meat plate of brisket and sausage and 2 sides of macaroni and cheese and pinto beans. The brisket & sausage was honestly the worst I have ever eaten in my life; I am not exaggerating! The brisket was tough, dry and burnt. There was no smoke ring and the fat cap wasn't trimmed from the brisket before it was smoked. The sausage was dry, but was slightly better than the brisket. The mac & cheese was runny and not very flavorful. The beans weren't too bad, but nothing to write home about. The lady behind the counter, taking orders does, however, deserve 5 stars. She was extremely nice & personable.

Was not a good choice at all. Ordered a beef sandwich. The Meat was dry and hard with no good taste to it just a sweet sauce. Soda from fountain was flat. The only thing good about the visit was the lady that took the order. She gets 5 stars. Very nice and welcoming. Great place to find a beautiful smile, just not a good place for BBQ.
