Legendary barbeque since 1975
  • Award-winning barbecue

On the scenic Riverwalk in the South Bank Complex (next to The Hard Rock), The County Line is a great place to enjoy an ice cold beer or a frosty margarita at the open-air bar. Inside, the funky Texas roadhouse atmosphere will make you feel like you've wandered out into the Texas Hill Country. Private party barges are also available. The County Line Restaurants have been serving up legendary barbecue since 1975. During that period, the County Line Restaurants have been the foci of numerous feature articles and have been voted Best Barbecue in almost every one of their respective cities. Our barbecue is so in-demand that we ship it all across the country.

Good food and it's consistent.  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

We had 2 rib eaters and 2 kabob (chix and beef). The food was a large portion and as advertised. The meat was excellent. I rate it satisfactory b/c well...there are A TON of places in San Antonio that do meat better and for a better price. The riverwalk sitting rocks! and is worth the wait.

Yummy!  5 Star Rating - World class

Like bar-b-q? Chicken? Beef? Pork? Sausage? You can get it all at County Line from wonderful servers in a friendly and fun environment. And it's all DELICIOUS and reasonably priced.

Nothing special 3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

I know Texans rave about their BBQ, but this restaurant was average at best. The brisket was dry and the ribs and beans were cold. I'm sure no Texan would believe me, but there are better BBQ restaurants in Los Angeles.

Pros: location
Cons: food very average

Excellent ribs & sides - fun atmosphere 5 Star Rating - World class

This is for the I10 location. Went on Wednesday night during their summer music series and had great fun, food and music. The baby backs were very good and available with or without sauce or with sauce on the side. The sides were excellent, especially the potato salad and it is difficult to get good potato salad in a restaurant. We were seated immediately even though they were busy and the service was excellent. Good cold beer and no rush despite the crowd. Will certainly go back before we leave the area. I think the 2 reviews preceding this one are for the River Walk store a major tourist area, the folks at this location were locals. Try this place, you will like it.

Pros: Excellent ribs and sides and music on Wednesday
Cons: None

Nothing special 2 Star Rating - Wouldn't recommend

Was disappointed with these "authentic" Texas BBQ ribs. Like the next review, my baby backs were tough, not fall-off-the-bone. Had to saw through them with a knife and fork. A friend had the beef brisket and it was ok, but should have been better considering it was supposed to be "slow roasted 18 hours". We thought the sauce had a certain "gasoline" quality to it. Beans were very average.
Service was prompt - maybe too prompt - like all the tourist traps on the river, the food comes up about 2 minutes after you order it. Can you say "mass production" or "heat lamp"?

Pros: Location

OVERRATED!!!! 1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

I visited this restaurant chain in 2 occasions. In both I was disappointed on the food and service (especially after hearing over and over again the radio commercials on this restaurants being The Bar B Q King. The food was cold and my Baby Backs were really tuff.

I will never go again and I wouldnt recommend it to any of my friends and relatives.

As a note, I visited 2 different locations each time I went, the one at the River Walk and the IH10 location.

Pros: Ambiance, Location
Cons: , Service, Pricy
