Opinions de Green Mesquite BBQ Austin
Totally different vibe from Black's up the road, more relaxed and a heck of a lot less of the waiting in line part of the dining experience. The chopped beef sammich was good, plenty of meat on it. I'd recommend getting the spicy BBQ sauce, their regular sauce seems to be a ketchup and molasses based one. Not bad, I just like mine with more oomph, you know?
It’s better than ever! This place is a true Austin treasure and Rick and his team are keeping it real! Food is consistently delicious and the staff always make you feel at home. Great bands a fun vibe make this a definite go to! In a town known for great bbq, don’t pass by this Austin institution!
Walk in the first time and be welcomed as an old friend. Whatever the special is that day, get it. It's probably half of what you'd spend elsewhere and will make you just as happy. Then go take a nap. Best wings in Austin (they really have that award!). Great location, friendly folks, delicious food.
The restaurant owner is super friendly and the food is delicious. I love the roasted ribs which are perfectly cooked with tender meat and great flavor. My husband ordered 2meat combos. Wings and brisket both were good too. Will definitely come back to try other stuff.
visiting austin and wanted to try BBQ, food was so good! we used to think we weren't big fans of BBQ, but everything here was 10/10, including food, dessert, friendly service and a cozy space
It's been a minute but I've eaten here many times and it's always GREAT food. Today I had the best coleslaw ever with perfect catfish and yummy yummy hush puppies! Unique tartar sauce very tasty. Great couple of guitar players in here Monday night too!
This is my favorite (of all time, (20 yrs) Austin barbecue restaurant. I basically ordered the same thing every time I come… brisket sausage, two sides, coleslaw, and potato salad. And a half-and-half iced tea…,The people that run it are super nice!, some of the long time employees recently purchased it, and it’s still the best!
old school Austin barbecue with delicious food and good service. the outdoor eating area is great other than in summer and even better when there's live music. The servers have all been there forever and know the menu and service is good. I recommend for authentic bbq food in an authentic setting. 👍
This is outstanding, down-home barbecue that isn't overpriced, unlike so many places in Austin. As soon as you walk in you are greeted with a big warm, Texas welcome and a reassuring handshake from the owner Rick. He loves this business and it shows. The staff are friendly, and you can tell they genuinely enjoy taking care of their customers. It's a real family-run operation that radiates lots of love for good food and pride in sharing that passion with others. I found the portions to be a good size, and everything came out fresh without too long of a wait. We had the Frito pie, four meat platter of smoked chicken, brisket, sausage, and ribs. with Mac and cheese, green beans, and an extra side of coleslaw. I especially liked the tender smoked chicken with a nice crust on it, and the sausage with had that sharp snap when you cut into it, always a good sign. Brisket was delicous, it does have a slight pull (so not completely so soft and tender that it melts in your mouth), which is personal preference but I really enjoyed it. Green beans, hush puppies, and Frito pie were all excellent. Craving something sweet to chase all that savory? Their homemade pies are AMAZING. We got a slice of blueberry pie to go for a late-night snack and it was superb.
Great BBQ joint!!! Pork tbs and brisket very tender, chopped sandwich very good and greasy. French fries fresh. Really enjoy eating here over some of the larger establishments. It’s an old school vibe, plenty of parking on site.
Finally made it here and sad that it took me so long bec it was some great home cookin’. Everything was just right, not over seasoned or overly fancy… just some great food. The chicken fried chicken, catfish platter and sides (green beans, mac n cheese, jambalaya and fried okra) were delicious. We arrived 30 mins before closing so we just sat inside. Place was clean and had a nice, cozy ambiance. Glad this place is still around and was saved some years ago from shutting down. Will return to try some actual bbq in the future.
We ran in close to closing. Everyone was so accommodating. They're was live music in the back. The food was exceptional. The brisket was moist and perfectly cooked, the pork ribs tender, and the blueberry pie and peach cobbler- delicious!! Great gem of a place!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rick Garcia and the Green Mesquite Crew Deserve a Blue Ribbon! Rick Garcia — you and you staff realy kick out a cool vibe. The food? Dinomite! Every bite hit the spot — hearty, flavorful, and clearly made with love. I have to give props for the man playing the jams as we left. They were straight out of my favorite roller rink growing up. Your place (your playlist & the band from San Antonio) are going to be tough to beat in this town. Looking forward to having our Pabst Law Firm happy hour here soon. Cheers, man! Nicky & Frank
We had an awesome experience at Green Mesquite! The live music created such a fun, laid back vibe and the food was delicious. We shared a two meat plate and it was plenty for both of us. Great portions at a great price. Everything was flavorful and cooked just right. Definitely a must visit spot in Austin if you’re looking for good BBQ, good music and a relaxed atmosphere.
Our server was SO very helpful! She'd been Lafayette, Louisiana where we are all from, however not now living. Everyone enjoyed their food. The hot peach cobbler was delicious. We love the fried okra. Our 14 year old liked the tomato based jambalaya.
Seriously Though, If You're Looking For Great, Inexpensive BBQ In Austin, Everything Is Delicious Here, Including The Beer! 🌮🍖🥪🍻 The Green Mesquite BBQ is an Austin Classic! Located on Barton Springs Road near Lamar, this Local Gem of a restaurant is known for its incredible quality of food and respectable selection of Texas beer. They're also awesome for supporting the local music scene by hosting artists every night of the week! Open Mic is Every Thursday starting around 6pm. Recommended dishes: *Brisket Tacos *Pulled Pork Sandwich The Veggie Platter is a good deal as well. My favorites were the mac n' cheese and the fried okra. The new owner, Rick, provides a great family friendly atmosphere for a beautiful night out in ATX. Staff members like Tomàs, Pasqual, Lulu, Jules, and pretty much everyone else provide great service as well! Long Live Texas BBQ, Beers, and Live Music! 🤠🤘🏼🎶🍻
Been going here since 1980’s. Still great and always friendly service. You can’t go wrong and everything on the menu is very good. Tried the jambalaya for the first time and it was yummy. Keep up the good work.
I had to go to Austin for work and was craving for some Brisket. I found the Green Mesquite and I loved it! The place was very nice and had that “ranch” atmosphere, and the food was fantastic. Anyone in Austin or planning to go there needs to try this place, it was fantastic!
Low-key eatery with broad menu. I had dinner - two meat plate with pork ribs and sliced brisket, potato salad and coleslaw. Ribs were tender and tasty, brisket was fall-apart tender. Very good creamy potato salad and the slaw was crisp and juicy. I also had a half order of onion rings - hey, I was hungry - they were awesome, light and crispy and not oily. A half order would be perfect for two people. Oh yes, and they have Miller light beer, and I took peach cobbler to go. I drove by a very well-known barbecue place to get here, the parking lot was so full. You couldn’t even hope to get near it. This place was friendly, great food, and very relaxed atmosphere.
Green Mesquite is just as awesome as ever! If you are looking for delicious food and fast, friendly service in a warm, down home, non fussy atmosphere, this is the place. Perfectly located just south of the river and up the street from Zilker, it has its own parking. I love the well-priced daily specials! Our most excellent server Andy brought me the Thursday special — 1/2 chicken and two sides (I chose fried okra and jambalaya) and my friend got sausage on a roll and onion rings. Yum! Their brisket and ribs are also terrific. Thanks Andy! I’ll be back soon for some of that pie. 😊
We always enjoy this place. They have friendly staff, great live music, always a great meal. A lot to like!

The best bbq with friendly Texas service. Skip the line and enjoy local texas bbq at this adorable location. I love the catfish and hush puppies.
This is not the best barbecue in Austin. But it's pretty darn close and would be the best in a lot of cities. Plus prices are reasonable and portions are large. Throw in the great patio, live music…
Great (truly authentic) barbecue and a lovely outdoor area with picnic tables. Toddler friendly with chalk to color on the pavers. Sometimes music outside for a bonus.

What a great little spot for great BBQ! We really enjoyed ourselves and Tiffany was awesome to us. We came in looking to eat and they definitely did not disappoint here! Ambiance is classic - certainly fit how I thought a real traditional no nonsense BBQ joint should look. Definitely get yourself some brisket, and don’t miss out on the hush puppies either! The Ribs too - oh man, have the ribs! Great time - will try and eat here again!
Awesome little bbq spot near downtown. Very nice staff, Tiffany was a great sever and attentive. We got the 4 meat plate with okra and jambalaya and also a plate of wings. I’d say my favorite part was the wings, we get them dry and crispy with sauce on side so skin doesn’t get soggy. Great taste and sauce was unique. On the meat plate, I liked the ribs best, tender but not fall of the bone. Great flavor though. I was very happy with my entire meal. Looks like they have a good daily special every day too. The pie looks amazing and they say it’s from Texas Pie Company in Kyle. I’d definitely recommend this place. Come out and support your local restaurants.

I think this one falls in the dive category. Had the sampler platter, wings and ribs were good but the brisket was our favorite and worth the up charge of $1. Skip the Mac and cheese bland.

I really want this place to be good but they really should be doing better. For example the original blacks alone is similar but one billion times better. The meat isn’t very tasty and the mac and cheese pales in comparison. It’s like cafeteria food! I love the institution of this place but they could do a lot better.
This place has been in Austin forever but I’m really not sure how it has stayed in business. I recently ate there for the first time (now I know why), primarily because it was nearby and my group was…
