I had the barbeque turkey, briskey, and pork trio. It was just okay. The band was good. I'm not sure bad bands survive in Austin. The bbq didn't move me, however. The Great June D...

Brew & Cue 10/11/2010

Bad service. Would never recommend this to anyone visiting Austin. After over an hour never got our food due to some mix up in the kitchen even though our server assured us three times that he had checked on our food and it was coming. We were actually served someone else's order which we pointed out . Granted this was after ACL but no excuse. At least they comped the beers and gave us a coupon for another meal, but I won't go back. Felt like they just discarded me as a customer. more

Live music and barbeque 4/8/2010

I had the barbeque turkey, briskey, and pork trio. It was just okay. The band was good. I'm not sure bad bands survive in Austin. The bbq didn't move me, however. The Great June Debate was the highlight of the visit. Pros: Great bands Cons: average food more

great outdoor seating, craft beers but keep looking for bbq 3/9/2010

When I go to a BBQ place I want smoke to pour out the chimney and hit me in the nose when I get out of my car. That's the sign of a good BBQ joint. I didn't get that impression here at Uncle Billy's. Pros: large menu, great big new parking garage Cons: pricey and not that fresh more

The Service is great and the beer and barbeque are even better. A must for tourists and Austinites alike. Try the turkey and macaroni!!! This place seems to be slow now but tell your friends and lets make it a hot spot!!! Great location too. Pros: Location next to Barton Springs Cons: It is really hot in the bathroom more

Aeh 2/23/2008

Must tip my hat to the $2.00 Tuesday beer selections, which is indeed the only day to go the Uncle Billy's give that their beer is very inconsistent (Hefeweizen!). Great to have craft brewing in Austin but don't pat yourselves on the back yet. BBQ good but overpriced - must follow suit with the other overpriced restaurants (i.e. Romeo's). Pros: Two dollar Tuesday's, patio seating Cons: Overpriced BBQ, spotty service, inconsistent beer more

Best beer and very good barbecue 12/18/2007

It's the beer for me ... the brewmaster is Brian Peters who started Live Oak and later brewed at the Bitterend. The ""Back 40 Blonde Ale"" is AWESOME along with the ""Haystack Hefeweizen"" - the BEST Hefewizen I have ever tasted. The barbecue is actually quite good - secondary to the beer for me though. They have decent lunch specials, sandwhich and 2 sides for a reasonable price. And 2$ pints on Tuesday. Now, if only Brian would brew up some of that Tres Diablos or pre-prohibition style Pilsner that I used to get at the Bitterend ... Pros: great beer, very good barbecue and tasty green beans, friendly bartenders and wait staff Cons: barbecue beans are weird sometimes more

best ribs in austin 9/27/2007

these ribs are the best I have put in my mouth. they are not greasy like most rib places, very meaty, meat pulls right off the bone and they have so much flavor. I highly recommend this place for ribs. Pros: out of this world ribs more
