Riscky's Barbeque - Fort Worth, TX
www.risckys.com
We arrived at Riscky's (the location on Main Avenue) at about 6pm on a Saturday with a group of 18 people. We were seated immediately even though it was packed (I think my sister-in-law must have called ahead). We had 2 servers working our table which was helpful. The waiters did a great job keeping the drinks full. However, our side of the table was done eating before the other side even got their meals.
My husband got a large pour of Shiner Bock on tap and I ordered a margarita. The margarita was yummy, it was made with reposado tequila and blue curacao.
The menu was BBQ 101 and not a lot of options if you didn't want a full 1lb. of meat. I ended up getting a sandwich with a house salad topped with house vinaigrette. They really use the term "salad" loosely. It was lettuce and croutons (no joke). It was a good thing the vinaigrette had some flavor. My sandwich was really good and I ate it with jalapenos. My husband had a full brisket plate with sides so I tried those. The beans and coleslaw were good. The potato salad was not anything I would eat again. It was bright yellow and tasted like mustard. There must be someone out there that likes it that way since this place has been around since 1927.
The kids menu was a typical kids menu. I must have the only kid in the world that doesn't like french fries. The prices were decent (it was BBQ after all). For a family of three we spent about $45 (tip and alcohol included).
This was an average meal with average service.
