Heim Barbecue On The River

Came after going to the Zoo on Black Friday. Menu was no clear on what can or can’t be on the meat plate. They were out of ribs anyway. I had the jalapeño and cheese sausage, burnt ends, Mac n cheese, and potato salad. My wife had a brisket sandwich and fries. We went around 5pm so it was quiet. Sausage was delicious and the burnt ends were to die for. The Mac was good and the potato salad was different but it was soooo good. Brisket sandwich was huge and it was fire. Fries are thinner - they were perfectly crisp and seasoned well. Even the ranch was good! I wish they had a spicy bbq but all in all - excellent. Will come back again if I’m in Ft. Worth.

Such a great place to get out and spend time with your friends and family. The atmosphere is amazing and the back yard is a beautiful spot. Drinks, live music and food. My burger was a little sweeter than usual. I know the food industry has changed but I would rather avoid anything that’s sweet as a main dish. I would dessert if I need sweets. Other than that, my friends and I really enjoyed the place. It is good to have such great place in the neighborhood.

Texas BBQ at its best! Get in the line and order your food THEN go pick out your table. Inside if too hot but definitely outside at the picnic tables in the evening. String lights and live music on a Saturday set the scene for the food to come! I got the 2 meat/2 sides option. Brisket, Bacon Burnt Ends, Hatch Chili Macaroni and Cheese and coleslaw. Turns out, that three full meals worth of food for me. 🤣 So good! Those Bacon Burnt Ends are HUGE and smoked to perfection. The brisket was a nice balance of fat to lean, super filling and satisfying. The Mac was good, creamy with a touch of pepper. Not too hot, perfect for me. The coleslaw is a purple cabbage and carrot variety. Good flavor and crunch, this slaw would be amazing served on top of a pulled pork sandwich! We also got the potato salad and the banana cream pudding. Both were delicious. Potato salad has some of the burnt ends and cheddar cheese in it. All the sides are served in a fairly large portion. We took home enough food for a whole other meal 😂 They do have a bar serving beer and wine, not sure about cocktails. Didn't see any. They have a person outside to sell additional beverages by the picnic tables. This is one of three locations and by far the most casual. Kids playing on the grass while adults sit at the picnic tables listening to music and chatting pleasantly. Great place to take the family!

Boy, howdy! The best BBQ place in Texas. Everything on the menu is uniquely fantastic and unlike any other place. They love the veterans and give a very generous discount....being seconds away from a military base, they are sacrificing a lot of profit to say thanks for our service members. Locally owned...support this business!

I would give 20 stars if it were an option, and I'm rarely impressed enough to give 5! Cleanliness, atmosphere, service, and best of all; food quality... ALL PHENOMENAL! Heim's has just skyrocketed to the top of my list, with ease! The bacon burnt ends were perfect, but the brisket was next level! The whole experience was so great, in fact, that I called a foodie friend and insisted that he hurry this way while I wait! I'd suggest you hurry on down as well!

Stepped out the Jeep and the aroma from this joint made my tummy jump for joy. They had every thing accept turkey. I had the Chopped brisket sandwich, green chillie Mac and cheese, and Onion rings. The meat was juice and not dry. The rings were cooked in a fluffy batter. The Mac and cheese delicious 😋. This was my first time being there and I will definitely be back!!!!!
