Customer Reviews
TL:DR: 5 out of 5, 10 out 10. Friendly community feel and delicious, moist food. Don't walk, RUN to Brakes & Briskets. My husband is a big car guy and I can't tell a super car apart from a 1992 pinto, but I can tell you that we both absolutely adored our experience at Brakes & Briskets. We rolled in around 10am on a Sunday morning, and we could both feel the welcoming, friendly, community energy immediately. I can't explain it in words, but it was just felt like positive vibes in abundance. There were vendor tents set up outside the restaurant itself which added a fun 'street fair' energy to the experience. Also outside were a lot of fancy cars that my husband was fully geeking out over. The crowd was a beautiful mixture of ages, races, families, couples, and solo visitors. We went inside
A unique blend of delicious BBQ and Car Meet. Great meat selection and sides along with a Car Show and great crowd. It’s not your mom & pop BBQ… Shayne & Phuong take it to another level. The meats are perfectly seasoned and smoked and the sides are freshly made. Our favorite is the Brisket , Beef ribs and coleslaw. Restaurant is coming together nicely and can’t wait to see the final product. The crowd is super chill and the atmosphere is amazing. It’s worth the trip for sure. And did I mention the Brisket… 🤤 Highly recommend!
I don’t usually write reviews, but after seeing some of the unfair criticism toward Brakes & Briskets, I felt compelled to share my experience — because it was the complete opposite. As a car enthusiast and someone who genuinely appreciates good food and well-curated spaces, this place hits a unique sweet spot. Yes, they just opened, and like any new business, especially one this ambitious, there are things they’re still refining. But that’s part of the charm — watching a passionate team build something that’s more than just a garage or a BBQ spot. What stood out to me: Atmosphere: There’s real thought put into the design and experience. It’s clearly built for the culture — not just quick service. The Staff: Welcoming, transparent, and clearly working hard to balance excitement with lo
Great BBQ, fantastic staff, and what a damn cool concept to include themes every week! I am a car enthusiast and look forward to the Cars & BBQ events on Sundays. I will definitely be here at least twice a month!
This morning was the long awaited grand opening of the brick & mortar restaurant for Brakes & Briskets. This is not a random BBQ restaurant, it's a long awaited tangible place of business for a catering company that has delighted the local car community for years. There was concern about the unexpected thunderstorms, but if ever there was a way the local car community could show its love for these folks and their outstanding food, this was it. *Must-tries: Brisket burnt ends, mac & cheese, jalapeño cornbread, and don't skip the condiments.
