Dallas BBQ - Upper East Side

Great service, great and affordable food

A trip to NYC is incomplete if you don’t dine at one of the Dallas BBQ’s…a NYC legend. 😎

Amazing!!!!! The food came out in a timely manner and hot . The portion size was enough for two people. I will give this restaurant a 10 out of 10 for in New York

Overall love coming in with my family. Can’t complain about this place. Loved the waitresses I’ve had. Franklin and Lessie been awesome n very attentive.

GREAT HALF ORDERS ON THE MENU! $12.99 Half rack of fall off the bone baby back ribs. They were delicious! Chicken and a few other options. Comes with a side and cornbread. Nice to have a meal without breaking the bank. Prior review: Went back today and food was great....including the baked potato. It was very fresh, light, fluffy..... perfectly cooked. I'm glad because I've always liked this place and the prices can't be beat! Half portion baby back ribs were $12.99 which includes a side and fresh corn bread. Great sauce for the ribs. EARLY BIRD DINNER SPECIAL is HALF A CHICKEN, soup and a side for $9.99! That's amazing! I'll try the corn on the cob next time. Love love love corn on the cob. :) Prior review: I love this restaurant but the corn on the cob was completely waterlogged and their baked potatoes aren't great. Weird because those are such easy foods to cook. I think what they do wrong is to cook both HOURS in advance and of course they suck by the time we eat them. Corn takes only minutes to cook there is no need to ruin it for paying customers. Potatoes should be baked in the oven which as professionals in business for decades, this restaurant should time properly so the best is served to their paying customers. NOT THEIR LEAST. Waitress was nice but never came back with napkins or when my fork fell on the floor. I repeatedly got up and got things myself. I've been going to this restaurant since at least 1992. It was much nicer then and the food was always top notch. Please bring that experience back.

This place knows hospitality! The kitchen delivers excellence at appropriate prices. You'll appreciate their individual approach. Staff members exceed typical service standards. In general, it's amazing and remarkable !!!

Food was good but not great. Our waitress was nice but spoke so low I had to keep asking her to repeat herself. I had a frozen drink called a Tsunami. It was really good

Located in the Upper East Side, this BBQ shop sells a variety of meats and tasty Baby Back Ribs at a very good value. Besides the portions are very generous. Service is friendly and there is a nice family atmosphere.

Yummy In Da Tummy! I had the ribs and shrimp with baked potato and cornbread 😋. I forgot to take pics of my food 🤦🏽‍♀️ but got a pic of my drink. Lol

This joint was the bomb on food, price, and portion. But this location only! They lost an overall point when, upon leaving, I asked for their paper placemat and business card, and management was rude. Our server and overall service was excellent. The server was attentive and professional. Our food was abundant and came out all hot at once. I highly recommend this location. The experience was fantastic!

It was okay I didn’t like the waiters attitude I hate tipping these kind of servers with bad attitudes. Atmosphere was okay but the waiter ruined my experience!!!

The atmosphere in the restaurant was great. Not a quite place to eat if that’s what u looking for. He waiter was very friendly and checked on us frequently which was a big plus. First time visiting this place in a few years and still enjoy coming here for the drinks. The only negatives I have that I had to take a star away is the fries where very plain they had no taste to it. Same for the steak. Normally places I go and order steaks from the steak has flavor on it and taste good. Unfortunately my steak was dry and very hard for medium well. Besides those two issues everything was good.

This was a great experience.... great food and Location. Fast service and spacious. Reasonably priced and nice menu choices. Drinks were fabulous …Lot of people enjoyed the food because was the Manhattan for the 65th National Puerto Rican Day Parade ..

Haven't been to this location in years. The last time I was here, it was under poor management. It has improved a great deal. Enjoyed the food, and the staff was attentive.

Texas size drink is well worth the money!! Wings are hugh even though it's on the pricey side. You can have one of each... liquid diet, fried food and something healthy..😁😄. Two for one chicken meal if seated well before 5pm. Sorry drinks not included in special

I ordered a #WAPRoyale cocktail Texas sized and just that one drink made me drunk it had 3 different alcohols in it. I was given a fork with dried food on it I had to ask for a new fork a couple of times before receiving a new one. The baked potato and corn bread were good as well.

The food is delicious and in general the dishes are generous. But I must say that the salad had a lot of spinach, only two slices of mushroom, two of advocado, two cheery tomatoes and two spoonfulls of quinoa...and some cabbage

Had dinner with my daughter, it was a nice place and the food was good a bit expensive but worth it.

I've been going to this place for so many years and I like it a lot. Downside is new personel who brings out the appetizer at the same time as the main dish... Tip, order appetizer first and when you're done order the main dish, they are fast with every serving so take you're time before ordering the next dish. I love the Texas size frozen margarita with an extra shot. Depending on servants this place get 2 to 5 stars but the food is almost the same good quality every time so it's well worth a visit. I've tried some of the other locations as well but they are not as good as this place so if you chose between different locations chose this one.

We went on a Saturday night around 9p not too crowded. The shrimp cocktail and the Virgin Pina coladas were delish. The sticky wings were good. I'm not a fan of large wings and these were definitely huge and they needed a little salt but the sauce was tasty. The fries tasted burnt needless to say we sent those back. The portion sizes were good. Service was great and pretty fast. I'd definitely go back.

Was a nice place to eat. Had decent food. The service was nice and staff were friendly.

8/7/25, 3pm I came here with two friends for lunch. I got there first and was able to grab a table, but it took a long time before our waitress even asked if I wanted a drink. Throughout the visit she wasn’t very attentive—we had to ask the hostess multiple times just to get service, which was frustrating. Now onto the food: I usually get the bone-in sticky wings, but this time I tried the boneless wings. Babyyyyy, these things were HUGE! A 5-piece is definitely sharable, and they were a 10/10. I’ll be back just for those wings alone. One thing that threw me off, though: a couple came in with a dog in a duffle bag and were seated across from us. I’m not sure if that’s sanitary in a restaurant setting, and it felt odd to see.

Great chicken wings! Giant pieces of sticky chicken wings. The baby backed ribs are delicious too. Very casual and affordable. Take out door is on the side entrance. Take out service was a little slow.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been here and I was actually excited about going and I was disappointed. Our server, I don’t remember her name, was ok. She was not rude but not really on top of things as if she just didn’t want to be there. The mac n cheese tasted off as did the rice. The chicken was good, soup was good and so was the cornbread. The atmosphere was good. But the bathroom was a mess. As I sat there, it brought back memories as to why I hadn’t been there in so long.

We have not been to this restaurant in 10 yrs and it was a little disappointing. Sticky wings and tempura never disappoint and our waitress Leah was very pleasant n nice. This place needs a remodel the bar was trashy, my Mom said she walked past the kitchen it was a mess, the bathroom was trashed, the ppl who clean tables need to check around table for trash on floor and when we walked out omg all the trash outside around the restaurant is ridiculous.

I have been going to this location for awhile unfortunately the food has not been up to par. I ordered cod fish sliders and they were oily. I ordered broccoli tempura and received a mix of vegetables. Not what I ordered. The drinks are in point in the location. But I ordered to go and did not receive a tsunami drink. It’s a shame because I liked this location but the quality of the food has gone down hill unfortunately,

My boyfriend loves Dalla BBQ but personally I don’t like it. I told him I rather eat chicken wings from a Chinese takeout restaurant. Personal Preference 😬 Service was good Just gave 3 stars for the service

Upon arrival to this establishment the waiter we had was very professional. I ordered ribs, shrimp, and french fries. My food arrived cold, when other people's foods in my table were luke warm. This is besides the fact that only part of my food arrived. To which yes they had safety measures implemented with plastic walls between tables. However, 2 things I highly disliked as well as other customers in my general area was that when going to the bathroom the employees picked and chose who they wanted to tell to put on masks while inside the building. I watched as some people did not wear masks and others were informed. Secondly, they had no plastic walls up to protect people outside from weed smokers. Therefore, while eating and enjoying your meal you also had to deal with weed smokers instead of protective measures for that as well. I would highly recommend they put the same plastic walls to protect not only people from each other, but also from smokers and weed smokers who like to partake right beside that establishment.

My fiancee Henry and I were slightly disappointed. The portions were small and the combo only offered one ""starchy" side, and the choices were rice or baked potato. Henry wants to add, "They have us very small portions of meat". We ordered the Baby back ribs. We added our own home 🥗 salad and lemonade to complete our Saturday takeout experience.

Dallas BBQ has always been one of my favorites. My family loves to come here to celebrate birthdays. We were 20 deep this time. I think the manager should have helped our waiter with our orders. Lots of our plates were cold. I also think they stopped seasoning their meats. Absolutely, no flavor without the sauces.

Updated: When our food came out, some of it was cold or room temp. For all the times I have been here, this was the worst experience with the food me and my family ever had. Our server was amazing, but the food was bad. We got cold fries and burn fries. Room temp chicken with rice. The drinks were great. The ribs were cold as well. The only thing that was hot was the shrimp. This was in December.

I would not recommend sticky wings or rib. Just sweat and sticky sauce. No savory. Baby back ribs are okay with drinks..

One less customer! First of all I clearly told the waitress that I'm ordering grill chicken with bake potatoes with salad,she said that they don't have grill chicken but she was going to make one.I said ok,then she said if I have the bake potato than I can't have the salad,I said that I'll pay for it. So after I'd told her clearly what I wanted she instead brought me bake instead of grill chicken. I had to tell her that she couldn't give me what she wanted I'm paying for grill chicken not bake. So she had to go and change it,and had the nerve to lied about it by saying I'd ordered bake instead with an attitude like I was the one that made a mistake. And further more she had one knife and no folk,I had to call her that I needed one. I'm very dissatisfied of the service. Well I guess she needs more training, and she has to learn to give the customer exactly what they ordered.

Unfortunately the baby back ribs were awful. Not meaty and very dry. Honestly, how they let that go out to a customer speaks absolutely of no quality control.

The food used to be good here. Not any more I'm sorry they need to do better with their menu.

To each their own my date loved it but i hated food was not fully cooker eavry veggie i had was hard like really hard and my chicken was pink also hard and a pound of bbq over my chicken it was awful but the cornbread i did loved

Was in the mood for wings, and a mixed drink. Thought I would give Dallas BBQ a try. When you enter for dine in, you must show your COVID vaccine card or you can not dine in. Was seated, if your super hungry, eat a snack prior to visiting, because you will be waiting a while for someone to take your order. Ordered my wings extra well done, they didn’t arrive well done, no blue cheese, had to wait forever for the waitress (whom was nice). The waitress had more tables than she could deliver quality service to. If I am in the mood for wings, I will probably go elsewhere just because the service and food was nothing desirable.

I've heard that Dallas BBQ was getting worse but since I usually only end up here when tourists are visiting, I had not seen how bad until now. Ordered a small onion loaf and fish and chips. The onion loaf was fine but instead of fish filets, I was given fish patties. Really? It was like eating 3 McD's patties and fries but paying dining-in restaurant prices. Very disappointing.

I had a really disappointing experience at this restaurant because of the server, Malubalo. She didn’t smile even once and walked away before I could finish speaking. Instead of placing the drinks and glasses on the table, she just handed them to me directly, which felt very unprofessional. Her attitude throughout the meal made me feel unwelcome. It was honestly the worst service I’ve ever received.

Terrible terrible food, the steak was all fat, undercooked. The ribs were all fat, with hardly any meat. I was charged extra for a refill on water, yes water. The place also smelled like sewage water as they thought it was a great idea to start cleaning the place during working hours. I will never step back into this place ever again.
