For my 1st Texas BBQ, this was the perfect place to go to. The atmosphere is nice and the staff is friendly. Emily and Amy were awesome. The food was amazing. My mouth was watering as I ate it. I was in awe. I had to remind myself I was in public and slow down lol. Ok

Local people highly recommend here, and it’s as amazing as their description. The brisket is so juicy and flavorful, it can almost melt in your mouth. The pork belly brunt ends is amazing. I love this place and I’ll definitely come back once I visit taxes.

There was a line out the door when we arrived but they get through it quickly. Prices were a bit more reasonable than places I've been in Austin like Terry Blacks. But the portions are also a little smaller ... But this was plenty of food.

First time here and beat expectations. I got the two meat platter with pork ribs and sausage. Ribs were juicy and packed with flavor, sausage was flavorful. Man N Cheese was creamy with a hint of spice, potato salad was smooth with crispy bacon bits. Atmosphere was great and staff were friendly! Love the peach habanero BBQ sauce.

We have been doing a BBQ tour for our week in Dallas and this is on the list to come to again. Google did me wrong the first time we tried to navigate amd we somehow ended up somewhere else. We had the big red barbacoa taco the birria tacos, amd brisket Toscana. The birria tacos were amazing! I wanted to get some additional meats but have just been full from the week. The fusion of Mexican and BBQ is fantastic and had us wondering why there are not more places doing this. The crunch on the taco combined with the brisket and cheese has thebperfect blend of texture and taste. The seating inside is limited but there is lots of room outside amd on Friday night a one man band playing as well. For what we got it was about $50 after drinks. The brisket tostadas were also really good with refried beans, guacamole a spicy sauce brisket and cheese piled high. They are open until they run out of food but they seem to have it figured out pretty well.

We stopped by Hurtado Barbecue in Arlington a little after 1 p.m. and lucked out with one of the last parking spots right beside the restaurant. There was a line outside the door, but it moved quickly. The staff taking orders were super friendly and patient, which we really appreciated since we’re not locals and had a few questions. We chose to sit in the outdoor area next to the restaurant, and our food came out pretty fast. Everything was flavorful, smoky, and perfectly cooked! Texas really knows how to do BBQ, and Hurtado absolutely delivers! Highly recommend this spot and will definitely be back next time I’m in the area.

Oh. My. Word. Hurtado Barbecue is Our Happy Place. Excellent food and service (with a shout-out to CeCe💕 for her friendly help and hospitality) we love this place. Everything we have tried has slayed. We especially love the brisket tostados—it’s loaded with meat and is fantastic. And every time I bite in a smoky and tender pork rib, a tear rolls down my face. Mmmmmm. It’s that good.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Hurtado BBQ in Arlington is top-notch truly one of the best barbecue spots in Texas! The quality, flavor, and presentation are unmatched. Every bite is perfectly smoked, juicy, and full of that authentic Texas taste that’s hard to find anywhere else. The brisket melts in your mouth, the ribs are perfection, and the sides complement everything beautifully. The service is just as impressive fast, friendly, and professional. You can tell the team takes pride in what they do. The atmosphere feels warm, welcoming, and full of good energy. Definitely a place that delivers every time top-tier BBQ, five stars all the way!

Natalie was amazing took care of every question I had and even let me sample a side before I bought it. Definitely would be an amazing person in management if she’s not already part of the team. The food came out in perfect timing, it was fresh and tasted amazing. My Paloma was great. Not watered down and made perfect. Definitely will be bringing friends and family back so we can see Natalie and experience great BBQ & phenomenal service

I really enjoyed the food. I got the big potato with burnt ends with a side of mac and cheese. Came out pretty fast. Food was tasty as was the barbecue sauce. There was plenty of parking. It seems like they have quite the variety on the menu, I will have to come back and try other selections. These also had outdoor seating and a bar.

I finally made it to this place. Let's just say that this place was totally worth the 45 minute drive plus the additional 45 minutes I had to wait before they opened. If you were to ask me what do …

This was our first time, but everytime I've passed by, there's been a line. I will say this, the sides I had- hatch mac and cheese and brisket beans- they were fire!🔥😋 I got the 3 meat: brisket, turkey and chicken. I was sad they were out of beef ribs.🫤 The meat was ok, and a little cold. What I do appreciate is because I have a pork allergy, they cut the meat on a different board. The line moved fast and the sit with complete strangers comfort seating was fun. All the servers were all really nice. A friend of mine told me to get the tortillas, but I forgot. 🤦🏾‍♀️ I guess I'll have to go back to try the beef ribs and tortillas!🤭

There was a line out the door, but we were only in it about 10 minutes. The service is OUTSTANDING. Staff is busy but they take their time with customers. They've got a dog friendly patio. Neighborhood cat stops by and says hello. Everything we got was tasty. cHubby thought the brisket was a little dry, but still good. I thought it was seasoned well. Their sauces have a little twist. We got a mix...Mac n cheese, tostadas, brisket, tacos, beans... the cornbread was really nice. Tres Leches Banana Pudding was one of my favorites. Definitely worth the stop!

My family flew in from California and New York, and I wanted to kick off their visit with some real Texas BBQ. We were staying near AT&T Stadium, so I posted in a local foodie group and Hurtado Barbecue was highly recommended by locals. We gave it a shot—and here’s the honest breakdown. We were greeted at the door and waited less than 15 minutes in line. The staff at the counter was friendly and super patient as I explained it was our first visit. I told them I had to try the brisket and was hoping for the jalapeño cheddar sausage, but unfortunately, it wasn’t available that day. So I went with the burnt ends and pork spare ribs, paired with mac and cheese and coleslaw. The rest of our group ordered trays with chicken, street corn, loaded mashed potatoes, beans, and more brisket. We did a round-robin taste test across our trays, and here’s what we thought: Meats: • Ribs stole the show—tender, juicy, fall-off-the-bone. Easily the favorite. • Brisket was flavorful, but inconsistent. Some slices were perfect, others dry and needed a good helping of sauce to help them out. • Burnt Ends were hit or miss. A few were dry, but the good ones were like sweet meat candy. • Sausage wasn’t a winner for any of us—wouldn’t reorder. • Chicken also underwhelmed—pretty dry. Sides: • Potato Salad surprised everyone. Creamy, flavorful, and not your standard chunky style—easily the favorite. • Beans were solid and flavorful. • Mac and Cheese was a bit bland. • Loaded Mashed Potatoes looked great but tasted like plain mashed potatoes with cheese—lacking flavor. • Mexican Street Corn was the least liked across the board—just not the flavor we were expecting. One thing I really appreciated: a staff member noticed we hadn’t touched the corn and offered to replace the side without us even asking. That attention to customer experience goes a long way, and honestly, I’d come back just for how kind and attentive the staff was throughout our visit. Sauces: The Sweet & Spicy BBQ sauce was the winner hands-down. The Aztec Gold and Mango Habanero? Hard pass from our table. All in all, while there were a few misses, the highlights (those ribs, the service, and the potato salad!) made this a great kickoff meal for the family visit. We’ll definitely be back to try more—and hopefully catch the jalapeño sausage next time!

Really enjoyed the BBQ here. It’s definitely top-notch 👌🏽 The chicken was really nice, but the skin, though delicious, was a bit too sweet for my taste. The spare ribs were a bit drier than I’m used to, but also still really good. The brisket was ideal 👌🏽 The cornbread was really nice also. Maybe a tad sweet for my taste but, it was soft, crumbly, fresh, and delicious 😄

So I was looking for a bbq place that had moist brisket but I didnt want to drive to far so I found this place. Went in there and the line was almost out the door but they was moving pretty fast. I. The line you can see the meats as they prepare it for customers. I saw the brisket and was instantly happy because it looks moist and good. Due to that i ordered a 1/2 lb of brisket and the potato salad to go. Got my food in less than 10 minutes and is usually check it before I leave. Well im glad I did because my brisket did not look anything like what was being served to the customers dining in so I was very disappointed. I asked them if this was considered the most brisket because mine looked nothing like everyone else that was being served. They stated it was so I decided to return it and got the ribs instead. So as far as the ribs they were great!! I just wished I was able to get the moist brisket like the other customers that was enjoying it. I will just try again some other time.
