Customer Reviews

"Delicious Texas BBQ .... Always great and tasty menu items...they even have some signature items that aren't your traditional BBQ. Like brisket nachos and the Brisket burrito which is definitely a favorite of mine "

- Walter I.

"Stopped in and ordered a 3 meat plate, in my opinion was worth $21 and a homemade cookie :) Food is delicious, the young lady on the register could smile a bit . Overall this is a great place to eat. Great old time bbq place vibe when you walk in. That's how you know the food will be good. Will definitely return."

- Evene H.

"I love barbecue and I heard about this place so I decided to stop in after work and get a plate for dinner. I was not impressed at all. I got a 2 meat plate and a link of boudain. The boudain was old and dry. The ribs were dry and green beans had way to much vinegar and not enough seasoning. It was around 4, so maybe I just received old food but I really hoped this would be all they made it out to be. Nope. Maybe I'll try again and see if it's better."

"The food was good, the service suck. We paid at the register when we ordered, it ask for a tip, we tipped, we shouldn't of. They sit our drink cups on counter, we went to what felt like waitress area to fill our drink order and waited for our food. The waitress brought our food and told us the plastic ware was over there. Mind ya, she walked right past the forks to bring our food to our table and we did already tip. We were the only two customers. The service at whataburger is better. We were at the angleton location."

"Best bbq in brazoria county so far. I've tried lots of bbq in angleton, lake jackson, brazoria and Kenjos is the best. Me and my girl go straight for the brisket sandwhich. Tender juicy brisket fat rendered perfectly. A crust to die for. With a real nice spice. The spicy mac n cheese is the bomb! My girl hates spicy food but she absolutely loves the mac n cheese even though she dies while eating it. Texas twinkle never disappoint. Big thick slices of tender brisket with cream cheese sandwiched in a smoked jalepeno!?!?! YES PLEASE. The sauce they serve with them is epic. A perfect pairing. Goes good on anything. Spend about 40$ total and me and my girl are very happily STUFFED. Gunna go hone and take a nap. Don't skip this place. I will return regularly."

- DropOutz T.

"The best boudin to be found anywhere, anytime! Every side at Kenjo's is on point - but oh that mac n cheese! Great pork ribs too. The brisket a bit dry but that's what happens when you come late. Great food with phenomenal staff and friendly owner makes this a place to revisit often."

- Coach R.

"Food was great! We travel a lot for my husband's job and we are somewhat new to this area. I have to say this was the best food we have ordered out in years! And the staff was also very kind and friendly! Will definitely be ordering several more times!"
