I have got to try that Mesquite Barbeque place before I move. It's supposed to be on Siene Road.
One of our favorites was Spring Creek. It's either a chain or they have a couple of locations.

Aw geez, anyone of your new neighbors could tell you!

Not sure how close to Westheimer your new home is so I will give you the BEST directions, but perhaps not the SHORTEST.

Go south on 99
Turn right (west) on Hwy. 90.
Just before Richmond you come to Pitts Road which only goes north (right). Pass this and the very next light is a Farm to Market which also only goes to the right. I do not know the number but it's 3 numbers starting with a 3 or 7. If you cross the Brazos in Richmond, you've gone about a mile too far.
After the turn you pass Pecan Grove Country Club on the right and then go into a long S curve to the left. A mile or so after the curve ends, The Swinging Door is on the right. Closed Monday. For YEARS it was cash or check but I think they've been taking credit cards since the last time they burned the place down.

Don't listen to him, hon.
He probably puts ketsup on his bar-b-que.

Wait till I get in, and I'll take you to eat some REAL bar-b-que!
They've got a water hose outside.

The Swinging Door is easiest to reach on the east end of Richmond Texas about 3 miles north of Hwy 90A on FM 359. It's pretty good BBQ, but the atmosphere is great.. They are great folks out there.

However, LOLOL, the best BBQ is at the west side of Rosenberg on 90A at a stand with a simple BBQ sign. The old black guy is really.. DA Man.. Take it from a real man from the south.. That's moi, from the south side of Chicago.. :)
