Great BBQ place in Brooklyn a little NY chain restaurant. The meats are cooked perfectly and they compliment the sauces well. We had the 3 meat combo. Brisket ribs and pulled pork with cornbread and simmered greens and Mac and cheese with side of fried tomatoes. The dipping sauce was delicious 😋😋. The service was decent but we had to keep asking for the server. All the dishes came out perfectly except 1. Definitely worth it to come

This place just knows how to get it done. Quality at every step. You close your eyes, take a bite out of each item on your platter and it just takes you to a magical place. The brisket was golden, the wings were soft and juice, the cornbread was full of flavour and the pulled pork was by far the best I’ve had. Everything comes with their sauce and it’s a great addition. Highly recommended!

Wow wow wow. I've eaten BBQ all over the US. You can follow my reviews through about 34 states. It was the 3rd best brisket that I've had in NYC. And it was really delicious. Juicy, Flavorful, and the texture was melt in your mouth. I also enjoyed the pulled pork and the ribs are pretty good here also. But I just had to be clear that the Brisket was stand out amazing this visit. The service was also totally on point and the atmosphere was comfortable. Reservations can be made by phone and they are advisable in my opinion. They get busy. I'm also leaning towards advising getting there during the early hours for the tastiest portions.

Went to this place a Tuesday in the afternoon, the attendant was great, with such a positive attitude, the atmosphere is fantastic, the people is friendly and they suggest what they think is better to eat, drink… and the food is really great, the bbq flavor is delicious, I went with my wife and ordered a whole ribs rack with 4 sides and some beers. It was so good that we ate almost all of it including the sides. The ribs where delicious and we couldn’t decide which side was better because all of them were great. There is a great variety of beers, my favorite was the Lexington, my wife also loved it even though is like 8% alcohol. In resume, I will be back and I recommend this place 100%.

The food was overpriced for the flavor. The brisket was overcooked. The slab of ribs was seasoned well but tough. Lackluster experience. The waitress was amazing. The greens tasted like vinegar slaw, potato salad was good. The cucumber salad was vibrant but missed the mark just slightly. If you like fried green tomatoes, they were delicious. $140 later, I could have had a V8.

My husband and I decided to try Dinosaur BBQ for dinner/date night and we don’t eat pork so our options are limited but we ended getting the brisket, chicken and Korean style bbq short ribs. The brisket was very tender, juicy and delicious. The Korean short ribs were a little on the sweet side but still pretty good. I couldn’t even eat the chick because I was already stuffed but I did take it home and had it the next day. It was good despite being leftover. My favorite were the greens with corn bread! The greens had a kick of spiciness and were delicious. They have a few bbq sauces and my favorite was the bbq habanero sauce. I wasn’t impressed with the Cajun corn. We also order fried green tomatoes as an appetizer and they were very good- probably the best I’ve had. It came with a dipping sauce which added even more flavor. We also order 2 drinks and our total came out to $123 including tip. There were plenty of options for seating although we made a reservation online, You can also walk in. They have a little space for event seating as well. My only drawback was the food took a while to serve but it’s not a big deal. Overall even though I’m not a big meat eater I would go back.

Honestly the best BBQ I've ever had. I've been to a few Dino BBQ locations (Syracuse, Harlem, now Brooklyn) and they have all been absolutely amazing and consistent with their food. The ribs are falling off the bone, tender, and have a delicious smokey sauce. Their mac & cheese also has a smokey flavor and is fantastic. I have to recommend too their cornbread, deviled eggs, potato salad, wings, poutine, seriously anything you get here you can't go wrong! But in my opinion the star of the show is the ribs - never ever dry, even the next day for leftovers! All of their locations have a great vibe and amazing staff that are kind and helpful. Whenever I'm in the area of one of their locations I always have to stop to get a bite.

The cornbread was the star of the platter we got . The chicken, ribs and brisket were tender and the sauce was tasty. The fried rice was good. A good portion of the French fries were just fried hard skins. The Mac and cheese was a bit dry. The service was ok, but the server forgot and never brought some of the items we ordered... perhaps tired and overworked.

So my wife picked up beef short ribs from Dinosaur BBQ in Brooklyn on Union Street tonight. For me. Cause she loves me. We’ve been fans of Dinosaur BBQ for years. We’ve eaten in at this place and the Harlem location many times. But… These beef ribs were incredibly disappointing. When I went to open the big, not-cheap-looking plastic container they came I anticipated large tender knobs of juicy beef short ribs. What I saw when I opened the container was two round containers. One had mashed potatos with dark brown gravy, the other held mac & cheese. There was a small cup of BNQ sauce. But I didn’t see any ribs. Where were the ribs? I picked up the potatos to find flat, very dark, pieces of meat. So dark I couldn’t see them until I moved the mac & cheese. And so my disappointment began. The look of these Skinny, fatty, pathetic pieces of overcooked, bones with shards of meat. The short ribs looked bad. They looked unappetizing. And it looked as though there wasn’t much meat. There wasn’t. There was hardly enough meat for a small sandwich. Most of tge pieces were like remnents. Small chunks of meat you might find in the bottom of a pan of cooked ribs. You know, the remnents you might throw to your dog. My diappointment only increased when I tasted the ribs. They were not tender. Not tough. They were somewhere in the middle, texture wise. They were definately overcooked. Way overcooked. They tasted bad. They were too fatty. And way too sweet. I ssked for sauce on the side because I don’t like sweet BBQ sauce slathered on the meat. These short ribs do not need sauce, if you like sweet BBQ sauce. As I said, I don’t. I couldn’t take more than a few bites. I don’t have a dog, but I have a young son. He finished the ribs. Yuck. The mashed potatos were good. I finished it. The mac & cheese was very good. I ate some of it and gave the rest to my son. Oh, corn bread came wuth the meal. But I’ve never cared for corn bread so I can’t speak on that. So, my wife paid $35 for a very disappointing meal. I gave the restaurant two stars because of the two sides I liked. I would give the ribs zero stars. I’ve had beef short ribs at Dallas BBQ. They’re always huge. Never sweet. The right amount of fat-to-meat. They taste great. It’s like a decadent treat. I haven’t been there in about a year. I’m going this werkend to see if the beef short ribs are as good as I remember (and their wings… love ‘em). Dinosaur is supposed to be a step up from Dallas BBQ. Yeah. Right. I’ll go back to Dinosaur, to eat in, no take out. But, I won’t be ordering the beef short ribs. Never again.

Dinosaur Bar-B-Que is an absolute must-visit if you find yourself in Rochester! I stumbled upon this gem during my visit and was blown away by the fantastic food. I opted for the combo platter, and let me tell you, it was a feast for the senses and plenty of food even for two light eaters. The platter included a mouthwatering assortment of BBQ chicken, ribs, and two sides that left me more than satisfied. Each item was cooked to perfection, with flavors that tantalized my taste buds and left a lasting impression. The ambiance and service added to the overall fantastic experience. Whether you're a local or just passing through, Dinosaur Bar-B-Que is a culinary gem that promises a hearty, delicious meal. Don't miss out on the chance to indulge in their fantastic BBQ offerings!

Wonderful meal and experience at the BK location. Our waitress (unfortunately forget her name) was friendly and shared her recommendations for sides which were spot on. Ordered the sample platter which had a few meats and sides. Perfect move to try a couple of different options. Normally I would go into specifics, but honestly everything was wonderful and I would return to have it all again. Highly recommend and thank you for the great meal.

Came here for lunch and was expecting a lot better. The food was tasty and was cooked well. I thought they used way too much pepper in the sides (Mac and cheese& mashed potatoes) The burnt ends that I got to go, was literally just a few slices of brisket. Not impressed I also thought for a famous BBQ spot that it would be much better. I don’t know if I would visit again.

Not as crowded but the night was really cold and kept some others in. Had a large family reunion, so it was a mix of ages and dietary restrictions. But the restaurant and server handled everything with ease. We basically had a large room by ourselves, so the server allowed us to have the food buffet style, so no one would be trampled for the food. Parking was tough, but every one had a great time. We will return soon.

Delicious BBQ spot in Brooklyn. Everything I tasted was so good. Great sweet tea, tender and juicy Brisket, just right smoked ribs, Mac and cheese was different but delicious. My absolute favorite was the fried green tomatoes with their homemade ranch. Yum! Nothing to not like about this place! Great food, friendly service and nice atmosphere.

Vow first experience of the American brisket and ribs ! Simply delicious. We were lucky visiting NY and a friend who stays in Brooklyn asked us to come over and see them , we took the train R from times sq to union st , very easy to get to and worth the trip to get away from NY busy vibe ! Everything ag Dininwas fab , food , staff the general vibe , they were very polite and kind with our little kids who were hungry and playing around ! Good hidden gem 💎

I have been going to both locations for years. Amazing ribs. Best sides are potato salads and cajun corn. The meat is fall of the bone. Good array of sauces.

Food was amazing and our beautiful waitress Kenia was amazing and friendly. They have so much good stuff to try I went a little overboard and was so stuffed but extremely happy! I will definitely be back when I'm in the area again.

Awesome bbq restaurant. I came in near closing time for take out and was expecting the bbq to be somewhat dry but it was still nice and juicy. The take out was fast and staff was friendly. I recommend coming here for your bbq carvings.

We celebrated my Birthday and great choice by my Nephew. The host we're very professional and friendly. I had my young Nephew's and Niece and they catered to them immediately giving them crayons and coloring dinosaur paper. My nephew gave it to me as a birthday gift when he was done. It's going in a frame.The food was delicious. I had the Cajun Salmon. The Mac and cheese was extra cheesy and the corn was delicious. Great memory instilled in my heart. 🙏

Had a very enjoyable meal at Dinosaur BBQ. It has a very fun ambiance and the food and service were fantastic! We had the Poutine, BBQ platter and some delicious sides- beans, Mac and cheese and potato salad. Would definitely go back!

Pretty tasty, bbq sauce is a bit sweet. Dunno why they would sauce meats when serving instead of you trying them separate first.

BBQ is good here. We went when it was nearing closing time and they had ran out of some meats but the others were still good like the ribs. Lots of sides to go with the mains!

DELICIOUS!! We came at 10 PM yes you read that correctly!!! And EVERYTHING was fresh— it’s so worth driving around and finding parking (I recommend looking on 3rd Ave) because the QUALITY and FRESHNESS of the food is ALWAYS guaranteed no matter the time of day honestly! Try the sweetheart deal if you’re unsure and want to sample a few sides 🔥 started there my first few visits and never looked back. The drinks are strong, you’ve been warned 😂🙏🏽

Sat at the bar and got wings to start. Amazing. I get them bare to get the smoke flavor and they were on point. Then for dinner the pork belly, ribs and the white chicken. And all were some of the best I have had. I will be back in town in a few weeks and this will be my go to while in town. Good food and good service my server Devin was awesome. Can’t wait to come back to try the other items.

Was in town and heard this place was good. Triny (sorry for spelling) from the bar was our server. She was absolutely outstanding. She made great drinks and gave us great food service too. We we’re there during happy hour, 4-7. They had great specials on food and drink. The bbq was really good, actually better than I expected in NYC. The pickles were the best I’ve ever had…seriously! Of course Triny brought me more when I remarked on that. The place had it all, great service, solid food, tasty drinks and good “feel.” I wouldn’t hesitate to go back and highly recommend them.

I got a seat at the bar and a quarter pork ribs. The ribs were just on the end, so each one was fairly small. The barbecue sauce was fine, but not particularly distinct. The Mac & cheese had really good flavor. Overall it's a fine place for barbecue but maybe not the best in Brooklyn

Visiting Brroklyn on business and found this little gem next to my hotel. Got seated right away. Place was clean, atmosphere is good and staff was friendly. The food came out quick and it was terrific! I have to say I was impressed with the BBQ! If you are in the area, this place will not disappoint.

Great outdoor dining space, great service, great food. We are from Texas and can be a little judgy when it comes to BBQ. This place did not disappoint! The BBQ chicken was tender and juicy, the fries were great homestyle fries, and the Cajun corn was something yummy and different! The BBQ fried rice was also an unexpected but delicious surprise!

THE BEST BBQ RESTAURANT IN NYC. The best bbq pork ribs I have tried so far. They have two locations one in Brooklyn and another one in Harlem.

The service was fast and efficient. Johanna P was a friendly waitress. The food was as always excellent. The one advantage this location has over the Dinosaur Barbecue on West 125th street is that there are 4 microbreweries within 4 blocks. This location serves at least 1 beer from each of the 4 microbreweries.

Some of the best bbq I've ever had for sure. The place has such a chill vibe and lots of cool decor. Definitely my favorite place to eat in Brooklyn. The sauces are fantastic and all the food was delicious. Amazing and fast service. Will definitely be back and highly recommend.

Literally amazing, the most delicious food! We had the shrimp to start and then a combo plate each for mains with a local craft beer, our server was knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. Highly highly recommend

I had a great time celebrating my brothers birthday here! We made a reservation so we wouldn’t have to wait to be seated but usually there’s ample seating. Our server Miguel went above and beyond for us! He even gave my brother a free shot for his birthday! Food was AMAZING! There are so many things I want to try and can’t wait to come back.

This place was EPIC!!! The vibe !!! The Food !!!!!! The Staff !!!!!! All was beyond perfect. I loved it and I loved that bathroom lol its was super clean and like some kinda steempunk 80s puck vibe lol

The fried green tomatoes were amazing, the Mac and cheese was amazing, the pork belly and brisket was a little over cooked and dry but not bad by any means and that is the only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5. I would absolutely go back and give it another chance!

The food here is consistently good. The meat is always smokey and good. The combo platter is the best deal for food, either 2 or 3 meats and 2 sides with a cornbread you can't go wrong. The sides were delicious and just as good as the meat. Definitely worth the visit, unlike other BBQ spots this place isn't obnoxiously overpriced.

We tried this place today for the first time. By far, the best BBQ joint in NYC. Everything was delicious and smoked & cooked to perfection. The servers are awesome and very friendly. We can’t wait to go back!

Everything here is so damn good. The brisket was a little dry but everything is well seasoned. The happy hour drinks are great and strong. And the prices are very reasonable compared to other bbq joints in the city. I experienced great hospitality and food and would 100% come back

Awesome food and salads! Try the cucumber salad and the corn they’re amazing. We had the combo plates with three meats and two sides for 28 bucks can’t beat that. Danny was our server and what a delightful guy. We will be back and bring others.

This was my first time back at Dinosaur Bar-B-Que since 2020 when it was one of my go-to places for food and takeaway drinks during the pandemic. I’m glad to see they are back to creating a great family restaurant experience. We managed to stop by during their weekend happy hour and the prices and portions were perfect for a BBQ lunch with a beer.

Okay look, I know most of you are here to look at the food but I gotta talk about my guy Magic Bryan. He just showed up at the table as we were waiting for drinks and apps and was so infectiously excited to show us close up magic that we all got pumped. We were riveted and just a really fun time. Food was good, drinks were tasty but Magic Bryan made it a 5/5 visit.

We had great time there the food was on time the waiter Victor M was awesome the prices went up but the still great.

Great bbq spot to stop at and grab some good smoked food. I personally love the wings, but I hav3 had several different dishes here. I usually do a pick 3 combo, such as chicken ribs and pork. You can mix and match them. They have sausage and the pork belly or pulled pork option aswell. They all taste great in my opinion.

The host was the best part of our night, I wish I got her name - she was an icon. Live music, good food, and attentive customer service + servers. Decent bbq and pretty well priced for the area. Would recommend!

The food was delicious! Really enjoyed the ribs, maybe I was lucky, but mine were nice and tender. Definitely recommend the Mac n cheese. Soul food can be pretty different based on the region it’s from, so it’s interesting reading different reviews. I’m used to salted pork collards, so I wasn’t used to the vinegary taste of the greens but still good! The Mac n cheese was the best I’ve had from a restaurant before. Liked the atmosphere and our waitress was very polite
