Dickey’s Barbecue Pit

So they got new management a while ago. and they fixed the front door. But would you believe, I bought and paid for a baked potato to go after I was done eating to take home to my wife. So I go to the register and the new manager/​owner/​operator, person of authority; and I ask may I have my bake potato, showing my receipt. The lady looks at me, looks around, and then you can see it on her face, «Oh I sold that potato to someone else» And of course I reply ok, will you make me another one. «I am sorry, we have sold out.» Ofc I am unhappy about it, and she offers me my money back with another apology. Sad part is it happens often. This place is jinxed and its unfortunate there are no alternatives in kingwood.

Get there early or they run out of food. We have been three times. Once we were too late and the pickings were slim. The next two times were much better. We have eaten in and taken out never a problem. The owners are always there. They ask to see if everything is fine but don’t hover. We will go back but not as often as we would like due to pricing.

I must’ve went on a good day because there are a ton of bad reviews. I went during my lunch break around noon and not only was my food good and available to order, I also had swift and friendly service.

Extremely poor service every time I visit. This place was good when they first opened and have gone down hill quick.

The food is extremely salty and they don’t always get your order right. Last two times they have got the order wrong. They are also always out of food– the didn’t have salad, green beans, Mac and cheese, or beans. It’s been on more than one occasion that they don’t have stuff. I know it was recently bought by an other owner but it
Doesn’t seem to be improved any.

Solid BBQ ribs and the pulled pork was yummy. I’ve read reviews about poor service but I picked up from there and the total time I spent was maybe 30 min (including ordering and waiting). It is a little slow, and they could be quicker but there aren’t a lot of BBQ options in Kingwood.

This place is in bad shape. We waited for 25 minutes, because there were 3 people in line ahead of us. The staff didn’t seem to know what they were doing– we witnessed 2 health code violations. And when we got our food, the ribs were so salty I couldn’t eat them. Unless the staff changes, we won’t be going back. Which sucks, because this is the only Dickies I have been to that wasn’t absolutely amazing.

I ordered the Wednesday special (Westerner with pulled pork and sausage and cheese for $ 8.99). I got a chopped beef sandwich for $ 13. I told the manager I got the wrong sandwich, but if he could just put sausage and cheese on it it was no problem. He gave me a few pieces of sausage on the plate and said he didn’t even know why the picture and menu showed cheese on the sandwich, since they don’t even have cheese at that location. Strange enough, but the guy next to me got cheese on his sandwich. The bread was stale and hard, mac and cheese was watery, green beans were way too salty. Couldn’t say anything else to him because he went outside to smoke with his girlfriend. Never again.

I wish I could comment on the food, but we never got any. After waiting in line for 20 minutes without moving we left. The man cutting meat kept telling us it would take a long time because he had to rewrap each individual meat after every customer to avoid giving us cold meat. It took him 8 minutes to make one chopped beef baked potato. The other lady working behind the counter was doing absolutely nothing. There are better BBQ options in Kingwood so we will stick to those.

Partner went and picked up brisket, ribs, coleslaw and beans. The crust on the ribs was so salty I was not able to eat them. The silver skin had been left on, which made it difficult to pull off the meat. The brisket was lacking flavor, no tang from the smoke. Coleslaw tasted the same as Sams. Won’t be back.

Here again! We were greeted by a friendly young man this time and a very nice lady. The food was still good, however, the pulled pork wasn’t quite as juicy as last time. Still very tasty!

This place sucks obviously Unilocal can be paid off because the last time I checked this place had half a star. I have had 2 bad experiences here. One time I was served cold food. You want good bbq, go to tin roof in Atascocita.

We ordered takeout and it was a great experience. We will be back soon!
The loaded baked potato was fantastic and hubby enjoyed his chopped beef sandwich! Affordable, plentiful and really good bbq!

Awesome bbq for a good price. Went for lunch not to crowded. Will definitely be going back.
