Opinions de Back Forty Texas BBQ Walnut Creek
We just had a gathering in the redwood room following my father in laws funeral. It was completely perfect. Javier, Kaylyn, and Sydney were our servers and could not have been more attentive. The whole experience could not have been better , especially given the occasion
10 Jan 26, zero wait to seating. I had pulled pork. Husband had 3 meat (pulled pork, pork ribs, beef brisket, beans, rings) and it was delicious! Tender, juicy and saused but not sloppy. You can taste the seasoning, smoking and sauce. Friendly staff, terrific atmosphere, easy conversation, good lighting. Clean restroom. ~$65 before tip. I recommend! Will not wait so long to go again!
First time here. I got the beef brisket and the beans. The brisket was delicious especially with the spicy bbq sauce. I would definitely come back.

The staff is friendly and attentive, which makes it easy to relax and enjoy your time whether it is a family dinner or a bigger gathering.

I was working in the area and stopped buy for carry out, Orderd the tri-tip sandwich and made it a cheesesteak, I picked the Texas fries which is more like giant potato wedges very filling with perfect seasoning. Next time I'm in the area I will definitely stop here dine-in for a different experience. Carryout was very simple and straightforward, lady at the front was extremely helpful with great energy.
Back Forty Texas BBQ Roadhouse & Saloon – Classic Texas-Style BBQ in Pleasant Hill Back Forty Texas BBQ is a well-known family restaurant in Pleasant Hill, celebrated for its hearty Texas-style barbecue. I visited on a Saturday at noon, and while it wasn’t too busy, I noticed they also have private rooms perfect for large family gatherings or birthday celebrations—a warm touch that makes the place feel welcoming. The restaurant has an old-school Texas charm, with rustic wood tables, a round bar setup, and plenty of Texas-inspired decorations like stickers and vintage-style details. The garden with flowers and greenery outside adds to the atmosphere, evoking the look and feel of a classic Texas roadhouse. For appetizers, we ordered the Texas Wings, and the staff kindly let us have sauces on the side. We sampled the original mild BBQ, kickin’ honey garlic, and buffalo sauces, all of which paired well with the wings. The wings themselves were crispy outside and tender inside, with carrots and celery served alongside. For the main course, we went with The Grand Pit combo, which includes three smoked meats and two signature sides. The pulled pork was flavorful, especially the fully pulled portions, though the cubed pieces were a bit tougher. The beef brisket can be ordered lean or juicy; we tried the lean, which had less fat but also less moisture—I’d recommend going for the juicy cut for more tenderness. The pork ribs were generous in size but slightly hard to pull off the bone, so perhaps a little more cooking time would make them perfect. As for sides, the seasonal veggies were a light mix of broccoli, cucumber, and zucchini, though the portion was small. The chef’s special tortilla soup was excellent, with tortillas, chicken, onion, and corn coming together in a flavorful broth—one of the highlights of the meal. The portions were large enough that two meat lovers couldn’t quite finish everything, so we happily took some to-go. Given the combo deals, the pricing felt reasonable. There’s also plenty of parking available and the restaurant is ADA-accessible, making it convenient for all visitors. Overall, Back Forty Texas BBQ delivers well-prepared meats, warm Texas décor, and a family-friendly atmosphere. It’s a great spot for BBQ fans, whether you’re stopping in for wings and a drink at the bar or enjoying a full meal with family and friends. --- ✨ Highlights: 🍗 Crispy, tender wings with multiple sauce options 🥩 Hearty BBQ meats—pulled pork, brisket, ribs 🍲 Delicious tortilla soup 🎉 Private rooms for family gatherings 🚗 Easy parking and ADA-friendly
We had an incredible experience here! We ordered the 1lb beef brisket, and it was absolutely perfect — soft, tender, and packed with flavor. It practically melted in my mouth, with just the right amount of char on the outside for that satisfying crunch, while still staying juicy inside. On the side, we tried the corn and BBQ chicken salad, both fresh and delicious, and wrapped it all up with the peach cobbler, which was the perfect sweet ending to the meal. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, the service was friendly and fast, and overall everything came together for a great dining experience. I’ll definitely be recommending this spot to friends and family, and I can’t wait to come back!
It’s one of our favorite restaurants, especially for happy hour. I like the atmosphere, very cozy and friendly. Great choice of good beer and delicious slow cooked meats. We like their smoked beans a lot too
Deanna was my server. She is a 100% pro. I asked what was best between the turkey burger, catfish, pulled chicken sandwich or smoked turkey sandwich. Deanna recommended I go with the turkey burger, which I did. So happy with the decision and her guidance. I also had to choose a side. I asked how the cornbread was and if it was moist (in my experience most cornbread is awful) and Deanna vouched for it and said it comes with honey butter. I ordered the cornbread. The burger came out hot and tasty. The cornbread was generously portions and moist and flavorful. This place knows what they're doing. You need to come here. Will be back and plan to entertain clients here for lunches/dinners im the coming months in my new job.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Back Forty Texas BBQ is hands-down a 10/10 across the board! The food? Absolutely incredible — tender, flavorful, and plenty of it. Everyone raved about the BBQ, and they even packed up the leftovers perfectly for us to enjoy again. Communication was clear and easy, they showed up right on time, and the whole setup was smooth and professional. Having BBQ on-site was a total hit — such a refreshing change from the usual taco bars. It was the perfect choice and I’d absolutely use them again. Highly recommend if you want great food, great service, and a real crowd-pleaser!
The food was amazing here. Everything was cooked to perfection. The steak was delicious, and the scallop potatoes were heavenly, hands down, the best scallop potatoes I've ever tasted. The staff was great they were very attentive and so pleasant. Did I mention the corn bread? It was also delicious. Fresh and moist with a yummy honey butter on the side. I'm looking forward to going back here again!
Took the family here after they help me move into my new place. Went in around 1. No line no wait. Place was half full. I guess we missed the lunch time rush. Cornbread in the basket of bread was filling. Tried to stay away so I can eat the food I ordered. The ribs fell off the bone as soon as you bit into it. The tri-tip was like butter. No chewing was needed to enjoy such a delicious cut of meat. The Apple crisp was crazy good. I’d go back just for that. Wait staff was semi attentive. She forgot our banana pudding to go. But made up for it by giving us a little extra. 5 stars all around, will definitely come back seeing as this is so close to home.

Best ribs in the Bay Area hands-down, and they've been doing it consistently for 30 years!\n\nGreat sides that are healthy and not just am afterthought like most barbecue places do it

This is a very nice restaurant. It's been years since we were there last. The food was good, decent portions, and came relatively quickly. I had the 3 meat platter: juicy brisket, pulled pork, and 4 pork ribs. The pulled pork was pretty good, but some of the fat wasn't removed. The ribs were meatier than I am use to when going out (a very good thing!) and there weren't "burned to a crisp". The brisket was juicy and very good tasting. I had the beans and Onion Rings as my sides. Only 4 stars for the food was due to the meats being a little bland; well smoked, decent seasoning, but missing something. The beans were "OK", but like the meat, missing something. Onion rings were wonderful with a light seasoning (again only slight flavor addition) but large and the onion didn't pull through the outer coating. They do not "Barbeque" really. They are really a "smoke house" (there is a difference) that only serves the "sauce" on the side for these 3 meats I had. I do not know about the "chicken". They are VERY good for what they do, I was just looking for something else I guess.
It’s a great hangout spot with a classic Texas BBQ menu. I tried the BBQ chicken and lean brisket—both were pretty good, though they were served a bit cold. The sides were decent; I especially loved the banana pudding and BBQ beans. The portions are definitely larger than what you’d get in California. The place itself is amazing—beautifully decorated with excellent service.
Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: Casual Value: Good Based on all the reviews, seems like it’s hit or miss but I had a good experience. We ordered the dinner sized plates of beef ribs, pork ribs (award winning), tortilla soup, Caesar salad, and mac and cheese. This was enough to feed 5 of us. I thought the pork ribs were flavorful, juicy, tender and could see how they could win an award. We all agreed these were better than the beef ribs. Beef ribs were still juicy but I can see how some people could have a “dry experience”. The tortilla soup missed the mark and so did the Mac and cheese. I like my Mac and cheese more al dente with some kind of breading, but the Mac and cheese here was pretty soggy and lacked flavor. The service was solid where multiple staff members checked on us to ensure we were having a good experience. We could’ve had a bit more attentiveness from our waitress for refills, but understand they were busy. Portion sizes were good, especially the pork ribs. I’d come back again to satisfy my Texas bbq cravings, but it didn’t have enough of the wow factor to get the full five stars from me.
Back Forty Texas BBQ I am all about the whole experience when going to a restaurant. I ordered To-Go. When I went to pick up the order, I was welcomed and greeted with a smile. In both instances, the host checked my order, read it back to me, handed me the bag, and followed with a farewell. To write this seems absurd, but customer service is not always commonplace these days. The food was good as well! This is what I ordered the first and second time I visited: 2 Meat Combo Lunch Plate: ☆The meat could use a bit more smoke flavor, but overall good. Sliced beef: The meat was tender. Could have used more seasoning or maybe seasoned overnight before smoking. Ribs: The meat was tender and flavorful. For those who like to eat the meat off the bone, it allowed for that without a lot of pulling. BBQ sauce was added as a nice compliment. Macaroni n cheese: Creamy cheese and pasta cooked to the perfect consistency. Potato salad: Mustard based with a nice blend of peppers, relish, and potato. Ranch roll (similar to yeast roll): Fresh with a soft texture. 3 Meat Combo Dinner Plate: ☆The meat could use a bit more smoke flavor, but overall good. Chicken: The meat was well-seasoned and did NOT require BBQ sauce. Double Ribs: The meat was tender and flavorful. For those who like to eat the meat off the bone, it allowed for that without a lot of pulling. BBQ sauce was added as a nice compliment. House salad: The salad was fresh; exactly what you would expect. Potato salad: Mustard based with a nice blend of peppers, relish, and potato. Cornbread: Perfectly cooked. I was hoping it would have been a little sweeter, but most people are looking for cornbread, not cake. Banana pudding (half-pint): Great flavor. Contained small bits of banana. If you are someone who enjoys layers of cookies, you might want to get a box on the way home. There was only one cookie placed on top as garnish. I am a banana pudding snob, and this one was actually decent! I will be back!
Came here for Father's day. Didn't have a reservation, so we waited for a hour to be seated. Website is confusing, we thought reservation weren't possible. You need to call ahead. Front desk and entire staff are very nice and friendly! We did have to wait a while for dinner, several large parties before us. Brisket is very tender, beef ribs are good, as are the hot links. Cole slaw is good, you need to mix bbq sauce with the beans. Overall nice place for BBQ.
I am not sure what happened with this local favorite but the cowboy steak that I ordered recently was about 50% fat which was of course inedible. I appreciate that the serve4 offered to send me home …

B+. 3.5 stars. Because the beef rib was the one I was looking fwd to, I can't give food a 4 star since my beef rib bone was dry and missing something..this was my 3rd attempt. 1st visit I tried a full order, 2nd tried a half, this time I got the combo and the one beef rib was again, dry and lacking something so it's a no. Cornbread was a hit, smoked beef sausage was good, sweet potato fries was good, salad tasted like its been in the refrigerator too long. My folks, did enjoy their orders however: Grilled Salmon, Beef ribs, baked potato, salad&vegi soup. Complimentary bread was nice and warm. Total of $105 without tip. Our server Courtney was the best! Attentive, personable and just makes you want to give the place another shot. I couldn't disappoint her and tell her my order was a bit disappointing, but I know now what not to get. We'll be back. Oh the ambience is just beautiful..and quiet, even though there's a bar on the other end. It's like passing through the Caldecott tunnel. Different atmosphere.
Pretty busy. Everything is smokey flavored - great if you like bbq, not great if you don't care for smoke taste. Large portions.
Great margaritas! Food was meh. I wish their brisket was more tender. Their service and ambiance is good.
Decent bbq fare the sauces are good, the chicken I had was tough from being overcooked. The Caesar salad was OK. The ribs my husband had were tasty and tender. His meal arrived well before mine.

Where should I begin? Well for starters, me and my husband was looking for some good ol bbq, we should've kept looking, because what we found here was a complete disappointment! The food was bland, slightly cold, and over priced to say the least. We have eaten bbq all over the Bay Area and even went to Texas (I did) I've never had bbq like this, and I pray to the good Lord we never experience food like this again! I would never recommend this restaurant to any of our friends or family or to anyone looking for some good food! It's not worth it! And that brownie was supposed to be for two!! Just terrible!
Me and my husband was looking for some really good bbq, heard about this place so we came in to try it. What a huge disappointment!!! The food wasn't good at all, the portions were small, almost like it came from the kids menu. Slightly cold and completely flavorless! The only thing was good was the rolls they bring out before your food. We were shocked and disappointed. And what we paid was outrageous! I could go on on , but what's the point. We will never suggest this restaurant to any of our friends or family. Nor will we ever return. This place was not it at all!!
