"Established in 1896, and originally a stop on the old stage line, The Cats Roadhouse served as a weigh station for horse-drawn lumber wagons on their way to San Jose, as well as a rowdy social club …
All the food was good. Good flavor to the chicken. Loaded nrans were awesome! the Litsong lack flavor and was a bit dry for my taste. overall food was good.

This price point does not match the low quality and small quantity for "Texas Style Brisket". Not worth the wait from the mountains and this establishment has a sketchy history back in 2020. Regardless of their poor reputation, I tried to give this business a chance but was disappointed in their so-called"meal" of three slices of dry brisket disguised (add-on sides not included) & marketed towards people unfamiliar with real Texas bbq. Unreliable marketing and mismatch prices selling towards people who have the privilege and ability to spend more on door dash orders. It's not the price, it's the disappointment in food quality and lies in advertising. I will not support The Cats Restrant & Tavern as a local Los Gatos neighbor. I recommend bbq from Jackie's Place if you're looking for real TX-inspired bbq. I urge you to support small businesses that cater towards their community and not trying to nickel and dime their customers for their own greed.

Item shows at least 6 ribs and described as "Tender pork ribs topped with pickled onions, served alongside creamy mac and cheese and cornbread.", but I only received 4 ribs with no mac and cheese or cornbread.

Inflation is an issue for sure, but you can't advertise beef "ribs" and deliver only a single rib for $36! , nor chicken wings and only put 4 in the box. Definitely going cheap on value

I love barbecue and was hoping for something good here! Sadly, the pulled pork was very dry, tough, and too salty. They forgot to include half of our order (ribs). There was no sauce included with the order - I would have assumed they'd throw in a little cup with the pork. Definitely will not order again.
