You can't have too much of a good thing when it comes to Texas barbecue, so it's no wonder the first County Line on the hill was replicated in a beautiful, lakeside location. The Lake branch offers much of the same menu as the Hill, with… Read Full Editorial

My Review by jana1077836702 via Citysearch on 5/10/2014

My husband and I have been enjoying the County Line for many years. When ever we have friends come in from California or the East Coast, we make sure we treat them to the County Line. I find it difficult to believe that an experience at…

My Review by pandab1386732284 via Citysearch on 7/11/2012

I went there to the 5200 ranch road 2222 location last night on July 10th. IT was a horrible experience due to our BAD waiter. He was very an older tall guy who looked unshowered. H also wore a heavy bearded chin maybe brownish hair. He…

I found this place shortly after moving by Lugas via Citysearch on 5/29/2012

I found this place shortly after moving to Austin in 1994. I've been going there ever since. It is my go to place when I have company or I want to do a group out!! Absolutely the best baby backs and cole slaw!!!! My mouth is watering…

Horrible, bad service and filthy tables, total FAIL by jackiebga via Citysearch on 4/29/2012

I've been going to County Line since 1987. I have never seen the kind of chaos I saw there last night. Empty tables full of dirty dishes, people stacked up everywhere, having waited over an hour and a half for tables. One of the waiters…

Best BBQ sauce in Austin! by KathyBenjamin via Citysearch on 2/19/2012

Best BBQ sauce in Austin!

THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!! by katdan via Citysearch on 11/11/2011

Best Emergency Bar-B-Q Kit To Go Ever!!!!!!!!!! by claudia misage via Citysearch on 10/15/2010

Just cannot begin to tell you just how wonderful, great, fantastic,delicious the County Line On The Lake is. We always take our out of town guests there to eat and we have had our sons rehearsal dinner there quite a few years back. Really…

Best BBQ by JeremeyBaxter via Citysearch on 8/3/2010

This is the best bbq in the world. I can't say enough nice things about this place. I love it. Always amazing food, amazing service. I just wanted them to get the recognition they deserve!

Better Barbeque Elsewhere & Overpriced by Get Informed via Citysearch on 6/14/2010

A friend of mine bragged about this place so I took her and her family out to eat here. I ordered a deluxe combo plate on a busy Saturday night expecting to be drooling after tasting the food. To begin with, the bread was awesome. Anything…

Good for atmosphere by charlie31 via Citysearch on 3/21/2010

I feel compelled to post this review due to The County Line's popularity. I gave it four stars because the first time I went, I ordered ribs and they were terrible and the service was slow. But I have been back twice since and enjoyed the…

good food by trinity v via Insider Pages on 4/23/2009

We've eaten at this restaurant numerous times, and have loved it each and every time. The portions are huge, the bread is delicious. We always take family members here when they come in town.

Some of the best bar-b-que by E. S via Insider Pages on 1/8/2009

The County Line on the Lake is my favorite bar-b-que restaurant in Austin. The portions are generous. Their bar-b-que sauce and fresh-baked bread are the best part of the meal.\r \r Every time I've had guests--personal or business--come to…

Not as good as it used to be, but okay by Jane R via Insider Pages on 6/10/2008

We recently went to County Line on the Lake with friends for dinner and were actually disappointed in the meal. While the homemade bread is definitely fabulous, the meats (all kinds) were tough and somewhat stringy. The sides weren't as…

Good BBQ, wonderful bread, relaxing location by Daun S via Insider Pages on 6/8/2008

I like taking visitors to this location. The BBQ is good the bread is INCREDIBLE (if you've not had it, you absolutely must! You can get a "mixed" loaf 1/2 wheat & 1/2 white). The leftover bread makes some WONDEFUL french toast the next…

Nice location and good food by MorganaEos via Citysearch on 3/16/2008

The County Line on the Lake is surrounded by hills and green sites and faces Lake Austin. The food is very good and in good quantity, the staff is fun and helpful, and the prices affordable. County Line is definetely a good place where to…

Great setting, atmosphere - average food by shaft28 via Citysearch on 1/3/2008

I want to love this place, i really do. Close to my house, great back porch, live music and good happy hour...but we just don't like the food. BBQ is iffy, oversmoked and just not that good. Not just us, we have friends who feel the…

Texas-sized barbecue platters to please the pickiest of brisket seekers. by Joshua Hinsdale via Citysearch on 12/28/2007

In Short
Cozy, cabin-in-the-woods atmosphere with lakeside ambience will put you in the mood for a feast. Which is a good thing, being that the portions are almost the size of Texas. The service is impeccably friendly. Your meal…

Best ribs in austin! by kellykiller via Citysearch on 10/10/2007

I have visited the county line many times, seeing as it is absoloutely my favorite BBQ joint in austin. My fiance and I went back for lunch yesterday, and were reminded why we love this place so much. Between the fantastic scenery, the…

True review... by autlonghorn via Citysearch on 7/15/2007

Being born and raised in Austin I have sampled all the famed BBQ places around central texas. Overall The County Line clearly takes the top spot in central texas. Not Southside Market, Black's, Meyers, Salt Lick, Stubb's, and certainly not…
