Owner Danny Bell brings a bit of Texas to Connecticut with Danny's Little Taste of Texas. Bell lived in Texas for a time and got the full experience of authentic Texas barbecue. Bell then decided he wanted to bring those experiences with him to CT and open Danny's Little Taste of Texas. For over 14 years Little Taste of Texas has been serving residents of CT and all over New England some of Texas's Best BBQ.
The phrase Connecticut barbecue might never have the ring to it of, say, Memphis barbecue, Carolina barbecue, Kansas City barbecue or Texas barbecue. Sadly, much of our barbecue might be of the "remove the rack of ribs from the sleeve and slather it with BBQ sauce" variety.

We are known for our extensive catering services available for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We can cater for all types of onsite events including, weddings, parties, business/corporate events, reunions, graduations, fundraisers, bachelor parties, pig roasts and any other type of special occasion you can think of. Whether you're planning an event for the Backyard or Boardroom we're here to make your event a success!
Danny's Little Taste of Texas would be honored to cater your wedding reception. Your guests will enjoy authentic Texas Barbecue with your choice of savory meats and chicken. We are happy to accommodate groups of any size. Our food is always fresh and made from scratch. Danny will personally guarantee all of his products and services.

My agency pre-ordered food for 100 as we were holding a teambuilding event for families. The price was right. Delivery and set up was on time and perfect. Food was delicious, hot and ample. A memorable event for our families. This was our second time having LTOT handle the meal. Thank you Danny! You never fail to provide the best food and service!

Last weekend we had an outdoor barbecue celebrating many things. We ordered from Danny's little taste of Texas and everything was outstanding. I really don't know what my guests or even I myself, preferred.if it was the spicy rice, the perfectly spiced beans, the chicken or the brisket.it was all amazing! Since it was my first time ordering from Danny's little taste of Texas, I was unsure if there was going to be enough food for my guests.

I assure you there was more than enough food! You don't have to make anything extra like I did. The plus side of all that, is that I've had plenty of leftovers that we've enjoyed all week. Don't hesitate to order, everything was beyond my expectations!

Food quality was not that good. I had their pork sandwich and the buns were completely soaked in oil and slippery. The pork wasn't much better either as it kept falling out of the sandwich and was completely coated in oil.

Can't say enough good about this place. Better bring your Appetite cause you're gonna need it! Pulled pork in a baked potato is the absolute best!

This was my first visit and I am so excited to try everything on the menu. Their ribs are superb! I lived in TX for many years and their ribs are just as good as any top BBQ joints in Texas. Just had their BBQ chicken oh boy and let met tell you, it's the BOMB. their Spuds are OK not bad just not loaded properly, tastes good. The sausage dog is so-so, just not it. P. S. meh

Loaded baked potatoes with pulled pork are very good; perhaps a little pricey. Very limited seating. Take out was wrapped well.

Spud meal is the only thing worth the money I'll buy that every time but everything else tastes good but very small portions 15 dollars for a snack isn't worth it

Yummy! Saturday afternoon quick lunch before heading down to Foxwoods. Pulled chicken sandwich was perfectly messy and smokey delish Great price points, small table style inside and picnic tables on the lawn for outside experience

Absolutely amazing food & excellent customer service. You can't go wrong with a loaded baked potato & bbq! The staff is very friendly and truly care about your experience as a customer. Please please give this place a try! The chili with angus beef on the loaded spud & give the chicken tenders a try - so tender & crispy!

Great little bit of Texas. I got the fried chicken and it was good - very slight sweetness, leg/wing/thigh/breast cooked just right. Moist on the inside, crispy coating. The fries were good too. Excellent portions. Wife got the pulled pork on mac-n-cheese - plenty of meat on lighty cheesy mac. Comfort food to go. Glad they were open and we picked up.

This is a covid 19 takeout review. All food is eaten fresh in the vehicle. I got the potato with chili and it was excellent. Huge potato, fully loaded, with chili then added. This thing is a meal unto itself. The chili was very tasty and complimented the potato very well. I highly recommend the potato and next time I will try the chili on its own. The cornbread was moist and flavorful.

My first time there. it was 11 am, and i ordered 1/2 rack ribs, coleslaw, chili, and corn bread. guess what, no coleslaw, REALLY. ordered beans. had the chili first, there was nothing to it. a few pieces of meat. looks like she put a scoop of sour cream in the cup and poured some chili on top. terrible. the ribs were the worst i ever had. guessing they were left over from yesterday. the ribs had a weird smell. smallest ribs i ever saw. the meat was not eatable. ended-up throwing it away. best part of the meal was the corn bread. waste of time and money. i'd never go back

Danny makes excellent barbecue. It's not fancy but it is delicious. His baked loaded potatoes are fairly amazing and huge. I am especially fond of his beef brisket. The only thing I think is odd is that they won't give you a glass of water. If you want something to drink you have to buy a soda or bottled water.

This was our lunch date. As usual we chose a restaurant we never visiited at past. And try food which we never tried. This time it was this small shop which has bo presence in yelp or google. It is a small restaurant focused on carryout. As the name suggest we were expecting large portion and some tangy taste, which is there. But the menu was too little and we know most of them except the stuffed potato called stud.

So my wife chose that. A stuffed stud with chicken and gravy. I was expecting some soft rib and I chose half rack bbq rib. Ambience was not so bad but definitely not for a date. Food came in a carryout box. They do not carry plates. Eating a huge half rack ribs with plastic fork anf knife is a deal. So I used my hand. And anyway hand is always needed if you tear the meat from the bone. Rib was good.

Soft not too hard. The stud was awesome. Filled with chicken chese and gravy. Definitely she was not able to finish the whole and I have no place left in my stomach after eating the big rack. A spicy bbq sauce they prepare which is really a thing to mention. There hot sauce is not as sour as other which is a good thing. So enjoy. and also for Indian taste bud this get a good star. Go for eat.

I saw that this place had high ratings, but to our standards it was okay. It seems like our order of ribs were over crispy(made me wonder if they were leftover from the day before and just reheated), the brisket was tender and juicy, the macaroni and cheese was decent, kind of looked like Kraft brand, the beans were okay. It's our first and last time there.
