MY REVIEW: Visited last night in the rain and everybody was super-nice and the firemen next to me were really enjoying their dinner break. Me, not so much. I had a two meat dinner with brisket and sausage, with potato salad and beans on the side. Overall, I'd give it a B-. Plenty of beef, not too much smoked flavor and a kind of bland sauce. So-so beans and pretty good potato salad.
Nice place, nice people, nothing special BBQ.

MY REVIEW: The stuffed potato is great! Easily enough for two. Love the brisket and the chicken. Fote does a great job of catering lunches for our clients. We never have complaints and when we ask what they want for lunch "Demeris Bar B Que Again" is the usual response.

MY REVIEW: I have enjoyed their catered food on many occasions, and there has never been a disappointment. I especially love the Greek salad, it is by far the best I have ever had, and it is always fresh.

MY REVIEW: Great barbecue at a good price! The wife and I had a baked potatoe with chopped beef and it is excellent. The potatoe is hot and fresh. In times past I have enjoyed the ribs. There are not many places that have good ribs, but Demeris's does. Fast service, good food, and good value!

MY REVIEW: This is not *the best* bbq in town (for that, try W*ll**ms), but it is darn good and darn fast. I can order a pound each of brisket, ribs and links, with beans and fries, for a tad over $40 dollars, and by the time I've paid and gone over to load up on peppers, pickles and onions, the order is ready to go. Dinner and enough leftovers for days.
Fast and good. Not the best, but not everthing has to be.

MY REVIEW: I have been going to Demeris since 1980 and raised my kids on it!! The food is always great and the service is quick. My daughter is grown with children of her own now and lives in Michigan and Demeris is one of the required stops when she comes to see me. We live north of Houston now, but when we are in Houston we plan our day around eating at Demeris.

MY REVIEW: I RECENTLY CATERED AN EVENT AND DECIDED ON THE FAJITAS FOR THIS PARTY. THE DELIVERY AND SET UP WERE ON TIME BEFORE THE PARTY. THE MOST COURTEOUS DRIVER DID THE LAYOUT OF THE FOOD AND THAT WAS A BIG BIG HELP. EVERYONE DIDN'T REALIZE THAT DEMERIS CATERED MEXICAN AND ITALIAN ALSO. MY GUESTS RAVED ABOUT THE TENDERNESS OF THE MEAT AND ARE STILL TALKING ABOUT THE CHIPS!!!! I WILL DEFINATELY BE CALLING UPON THEM AGAIN. THAT GROUP IS WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH.

MY REVIEW: i can't believe how many so-so reviews i see on this place here. the lovely lady that takes my order (i don't know what happened to stephanie, but she was sooo cute, as is her sister) is always so nice and professional. the brisquit is always great, and they always do my fries extra crispy and perfectly so in such a short time. yeah the prices keep going up, but i guess they gotta stay ahead of the curve.- great place!

MY REVIEW: The place looked diffrent since the last time I was there. I had my bike in the shop next door and decided to get lunch. The meat was as a previos person commented seemed to be just cooked with BBQ sauce to make it "BBQ". The beans I had tasted like the kind you get in the big bulk cans at the grocery store. They had no outstanding flavor or qualities that set them apart from a canned good. The cole slaw was from the bottom of the container, it was almost empty and way to much liquid was in it. If you are in a hurry and in the area its ok if you want real BBQ drive a bit and get it. It seems that there are alot of psuedo BBQ places and if youve never had real BBQ you are none the wiser.

MY REVIEW: This isn't barbecue. Oh, the meats are served slathered in BBQ sauce, all right, but the actual seasoning and preparation of the meat are the keys to quality barbecue. As far as I could tell, the ribs and chicken breast were just cooked and sauced without any special preparation involved. (Hint - I didn't smell any barbecue smell as I walked in from the parking lot.)
Now, this stuff is perfect for a catering operation that specializes in feeding hungry hordes of families and kids at the company picnic, and I'd enjoy it in that setting too. But not when I'm footing the bill. As a previous reviewer said, there are better choices around.

MY REVIEW: I have been going here for years and I love thier food. Being recently married, I have gone here 3 times w/ my new bride, and she saws that the french fries are of a lesser quality [smaller, cheaper grade]than when we first went. After a couple of times at different times of the day, I realize that she is right. My wife is a salesperson for a food distribution company, so she has knowlegde of food quality, and I have no reason to doubt her word. I wish that they would go back to thier orignal grade of french fries. Little things do make a difference

MY REVIEW: Wow! Demeris on Shepherd has had a facelift! All new interior, new booths, new tables, new chairs, new window coverings and updated bathrooms. The place is warm and inviting. If you haven't been to this Demeris in a while, check them out! The new look is very nice! For dinner I had the sliced beef sandwich, a side of cole slaw and a side of beans. The sandwich was really good, the meat was tender, sauce was good and the bun was nice and soft. Baked beans were slightly sweet with a thick bean sauce, tasty! The cole slaw is perfect, the perfect mix of cabbage, carrots and dressing. I really enjoy Demeris' cole slaw, I could've eaten two servings! I'll be going back soon, the atmosphere is very warm and comfy, just like the food!

MY REVIEW: The BBQ is so-so. The owner is especially friendly and will give you seconds if you finish your food. He says, "I don't want anybody leaving here hungry." There are better choices.

MY REVIEW: Great for catering for large groups. Very professional presentation and always prompt and courteous. They are hands down the best catering service for BBQ that I have found after using several sub par companies in the past.

MY REVIEW: Food was ok, nothing to travel any distance for. Service was extra bad every time I've gone. Probably won't go back for the simple fact that their attitude is so bad. Besides there way better places close by.

MY REVIEW: Not that great of a BBQ place. They evidently do a lot of catering and have a following, but I'll take Luling or Otto's over it any day.
