Now I'd like this place. I'm going to Linden's when they were just around the corner in the Strip Center there by aquarium world. All of that's gone now sadly that strip center lies empty. Linden's moved right around the corner right on Hollister. If you're coming towards town take Hollister turn right and they're right on the left about a block down. It's a newer building maybe 10 years old now since they moved in there. The pulled pork is good I wonderful pork sandwiches he's the one who brought them here to Houston. The sauce is outstanding I love they put the bottles on the little warmer so your sauce is warm and pours out easily it's got a sweet vinaigrette taste to it. Foods excellent staff is excellent of course prices have gone up on everything. I had a touch of sticker shock when I went in there but I was facing it on eating there for lunch everyday when I worked on that side of Town years ago. But like I said I highly recommend them they're independently owned it's ran by linden son now he retired some years ago. All I can say is stop on by try them out it's well worth the time and taste.

Read moreFood was warm. Not hott warm. I snagged a pulled pork sandwich. Amount of food for price point in today's climate I'd say it was almost fair. Slightly over priced.
How do you have dry pulled pork? Anyone recommending this place as a must eat or go to establishment needs their taste buds adjusted. They clearly have not had BBQ that was fresh.
The meats sit in a heating oven to stay warm they can't be hot because they'd dry out they can be cold because it's get microwaved and that's worse. They just don't have the foot traffic or the right preparation to serve fresh meats.
I suspect cash flow and management have something to do with this establishment pushing themselves as BBQ. Looks like an expensive building with taxes or rent we'll they need to plan better or work their hours differently but this is not close to fresh BBQ. It's atleast the best in this small sector. Don't even go down the street on the frontage road or you'll regret what you do to you mouth.
Is it good sustenance sure I can go back to work now and survive but I won't be recommending this to...
Read moreThe food was good but not mind blowing, and the portions are massive. I had the half chicken plate with 2 sides (I couldn’t finish it) - myself and my partner could have most likely shared a half chicken and 1 baked potato.
NB - the beer battered Onion rings are MASSIVE. I found that their size was actually a little off putting because they were so big. I unfortunately have to say I didn’t enjoy them, they were tasteless and unfortunately a little dry for my liking.
However the venue is clean and has a tribute to the old days of sport and pride to baseball (but I will say I feel like I am stuck in an older version of another well known barbecue restaurant). I do have to admit I though that the staff are friendly and the service is really good here. Food is also fairly priced here.
With all been said, please don’t let my review discourage you from at least experiencing this restaurant, there are still some good qualities here, all I am saying is do not expect an explosion of...
