This was my first time trying out this place. I was playing my usually Pokémon go game event downtown , got hungry & wanted a break from the heat . The cashier & staff were very friendly. I ordered brisket, green beans & potatoes salad then some jack fruit Green bean & potatoes salad was best I have ever tasted lots of favor. Brisket was good but I felt like it was a little dry. I saw they had jack fruit on there so I ordered a small portion to try. It was very delicious it’s was very taste very similar to chicken my opinion. A little sad that used a sweet tea bag from a vendor instead of making fresh daily like most other places do. But it’s still good. The food was good & I am willing to return again. 2nd visit was on Sunday I got there chicken fryer brisket meal & it was good and very fulling . I couldn’t eat it all.

Oh man, I rarely give a bad review, but man.... came here today July 6th 2026 and got a lb of brisket. Oh man it was just not good at all. I mean like, there cannot be a pitmaster on staff here. This is either bought from a supplier and reheated or just boiled. The stacked Mac is just terrible and dry. Completely over priced and a little effort would be a game changer. I would rather go to Costco and buy some packaged brisket than come here. Save your money just go somewhere else. I had to edit my post to express again how bad it is. Oh man... im literally sitting here forcing it down because my wife and I spent 45 dollars. I wish I could attach a picture, I dont even know if this is real meat at this point. The smoke ring looks fake. I have to come back again.... 2nd edit.... who is the world is the owner of this place?????? Ain't no way the owner eats this and says "yes, this is spot on, we should sell it at $30 a lb. Ain't no way!!!! Seriously, Ain't no way! Ok, final edit. They serve beer, but you cant drink enough to make that brisket taste good. I seriously dont know what they were thinking.

Hosted an event at Intrinsic and had an absolute blast! The atmosphere was great as always and everyone loved the snacks and cold beer. The patio is great for these sunny days - you just can never go wrong with this place!

Chicken-fried brisket is the star of the show here, and it’s every bit as legendary as the hype suggests. I went specifically for their signature dish (the one they proudly call themselves the “Home of the Chicken Fried Brisket”), and it delivered exactly what everyone raves about. They take a thick, oak-smoked brisket slice—already juicy, tender, and loaded with smoky flavor and perfect bark—then coat it in a craft-beer batter and fry it up. The crust comes out shatter-crisp and golden, never greasy or soggy, while the brisket inside stays beefy and moist. That peppery burnt-end gravy poured over the top is rich, savory, and ties everything together beautifully with a scoop of skin-on mashed potatoes on the side. It’s pure Texas comfort food genius—smoky BBQ meets Southern fried steak in the best possible way. I’d order it again in a heartbeat (it’s a Tuesday special or weekend brunch treat, so plan accordingly). The rest of the BBQ holds up just as strong. Their regular brisket (flat and point) is consistently juicy, tender, and smoky with that killer bark everyone mentions. Sides and other meats are solid too—no weak links. The house beers are fantastic and pair perfectly with t

I was appalled at the amount of meat I got. My plate in this picture was $17. That did not include a drink for $4 extra. I literally left this establishment hungry still. For $21, I did not get a full meal and the food was barely warm. Like what kind of business are you running. Even in this day and age, $21 to spend on just ONE persons food is a lot. I expected better. If you’re coming here, be prepared to spend.
