Love the food! Great brisket along with/my 2 faves, pulled pork & sliced turkey. Good sweet baked beans which combine well w/the slightly spicy Cole slaw & there's great creamed corn. All good. read more

I came here for lunch and got a pulled pork sandwich with the chips. Just simply, overall, I thought the BBQ was good and the sandwich was good. I just thought for what you get it's more expensive than other places. I really don't have any complaints about the food. It's good, but a small sandwich (maybe a 3.5" bun) for $10 is not the best BBQ deal when there are plenty of places that will give you a 4"-5" bun loaded with BBQ for $7-$8. Maybe they can charge more being ITP Atlanta, but for me, I don't think I got the value to return. One of the real reasons for my review is the experience with the workers. I walked in and read the minute for a couple minutes, then I stood under the "Order Here" sign and waited, not long, around a minute as a girl in front of me packed sauces. So then I see her glance at me and look back down. So I ask if I order here and she, without looking at me says "No over there." So I look around and to my right there is a girl at another POS system on the right that is just staring at me. So I walk over, wait about 2 seconds, she doesn't say a word so I ask her if I order here. She says yes. I order and she gives me my food without another word. That was pretty odd and not really great customer service. It overall just didn't make for a great experience and I don't think I will return. read more

I picked up a pound of brisket a couple of hours ago. Take a bite and your mouth will rocket straight to heaven. Their Mac and cheese makes my mouth water and the hunger pangs rumble.

DAS BBQ - Peach Cobbler - Barbeque Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Good pork bbq and sides! Was nearby and decided to try this place. Nice decor and friendly staff. Tried a bunch of things since their menu updated and they had junior sizes. PORK 4oz $4.00 BRISKET 4oz $7.50 CHICKEN 4oz $4.00 DAS CORN 3 oz x 2 $6.00 COLESLAW 3 oz x 2 $4.00 BRUNSWICK STEW 3 oz $3.00 **SHINER PT $3.00 They have two bbq sauces dispensed out of udder machines: Das red (thick espresso based sauce) Hog mop (slightly thick vinegar sauce) I thought the pork bbq and corn were the stars of the show. Great texture and moist. The corn has a nice jalapeño cheddar flavor to it. The brisket had a nice bark to it but lacked a lot of flavor and needed the sauce. The chicken wasn't bad. Maybe needs more seasoning too. The coleslaw I could do without and the Brunswick stew was tasty. Meat portions were possibly larger than 4oz but I didn't have a scale. I didn't leave hungry. Makes up for being overcharged... Did notice after I left that they charged me twice for two sides when I only ordered one each. Not worth the time to go back to fight for $5, but make sure you get a receipt and check it. read more

Update, this restaurant no longer offers platters. They have ala carte BBQ that is already pre packaged and sized. I haven't been back since the change. The new location is beautiful and has a great backyard but I liked the old menu offerings better. read more

The atmosphere, even during Covid, was good. It's worth a stop for local bbq. We stopped late in the day and sampled a few dishes. The brisket was a bit dry but had good flavor. Our family all preferred the chicken to the beef which is saying something for us since we rarely order chicken at a bbq joint. The BEST meat though was the sausage link. Excellent flavor and a unanimous winner! 2 sauces to choose from, I preferred the vinegar based sauce. Mac and Cheese was big hit with our kids and was better than the potato salad. We were glad we stopped but would probably try another spot the next time we pass through Atlanta. Side note: Great outdoor seating options during Covid read more

DAS BBQ - Store front with outside eating area - Barbeque Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Das BBQ is a hidden gem. I would go here before most BBQ spots that is highly recommended in ATL.

Good bbq **BUT** I order it only because a valuable customer always specifically asks for it. Ordering the food in advance (online) is overly complicated and a complete pain in the butt. Amazing how complicated the folks @ DAS BBQ make it on a customer to order their food. Not one time has a person answered their phone when I've called - it's routed directly to a VM and you're asked to leave a message. Try hey told me last week they were getting rid of their current app. Who knows?? read more

I had the opportunity to eat here 08/15/2024 and to be honest I was highly disappointed with the food. The hype was actually overhyped. My Das Dawg had a sesame seed bun that was hard as a rock, and I couldn't even bite into it, my dawg didn't come with any peppers as described in the menu, the Mac and Cheese was good in flavor but the shells they use were hard, and the potato salad was store bought I'm convinced. Overall this experience was garbage and I am willing to possibly try again but it will not be my first option. I'll eat at Shane's before I make this place my first option and I think Shane's is trash. read more

I've been coming here for years and absolutely loved the original brisket sandwich. There's a noticeable difference in the amount of brisket that you put on the sandwich now. The second time I've had one since the change and I hate it. Would rather pay more for the original version of the sandwich. read more

If consistently great BBQ ribs is your thing, the best ribs hands down can be found at this place. Even a to-go order of ribs will still be warm, juicy and ready to eat when you get home as they wrap them in a thick cover. One of the best run BBQ places I've ever encountered. Give them your business and you will find a loyal group of people who love what they do for a living and take the care necessary to pull it off. read more

Came in on an early Sunday afternoon. Not busy. We ordered a sausage dog and sides. The sausage dog was good not great. Very simple item. It didn't seem like it was smoked from a grill at all. Also had the greens (seasoned well) Brunswick stew (delicious) mac and cheese (tasty) just not a fan of big shells instead of elbow macaroni. See pics. They say alot. read more

Das BBQ has outstanding BBQ. I give them 4.5 stars rounded up to 5. The restaurant opened December 30, 2016 on the west side of Atlanta, near the intersection of Collier Rd and Defoors Ferry/Defoor Ave. Owner Stephen Franklin and his family have decades of Texas and Georgia BBQ experience. The name "Das" is a nod to the German and Czech settlers who first brought smoked meats to Texas. I first visited this restaurant at a Yelp event in March 2018. It was there that I met Stephen, learned the history of his restaurant, got a full tour, and sampled a large portion of the menu. As someone who lives nearby and loves good BBQ, I'm happy this place has opened and have since returned as a regular customer, bringing my fiancee in tow. If you're familiar with this neighborhood of Atlanta, you know parking can get tight during peak times. Das has its own lot with about 15 spaces. Free street parking is available too. This is a casual restaurant with a laid back and relaxed vibe. The smoker room doors are open and you can walk right up and take a close look at Das' two smokers, Lefty and Pancho, as well as the roaster. It smells great. The freestanding building used to be an old Pizza Hut. They've made a lot of renovations and it looks nice, definitely updated for the times. They've got a spacious, covered patio out front with TVs and fans. The inside has an open kitchen, order/prep counter, beers on tap, more TVs, and communal bench-style seating. It's not a huge space, but not tiny either. You can play cornhole in the parking lot. When I last visited, meats on the menu included beef brisket, pulled pork, ribs, and sausage (spicy and mild). You could buy meats alone, plates served with 2 sides ($14 for a 1-meat plate to $26 for a 4-meat plate), and sandwiches ($10-11 each). True vegetarian sides ($4) included mac and cheese, elote creamed corn, collard greens, vinegar-style coleslaw, and potato salad. Sides with meat ($5) included Brunswick stew and brisket bark pinto beans. Desserts ($3-5) included classics like brownies, banana pudding, and peach cobbler. Finally, some specials they had were 1/2 smoked chicken with 2 sides for $14 and smoked wings, 6 for $8 or 12 for $15. Here's what I've tried and how I'd rank everything: Meats: 1. Beef brisket 2. Pulled pork 3. Ribs 4. Sausage (spicy) 5. Smoked chicken To me, Das' beef brisket and pulled pork are a close 1 and 2. Both are magnificent. Das' brisket is among the best I've had anywhere. I've ended up with fatty cuts the times I've eaten it and the meat is just delicious. The charred outer crust is wonderful and the meat has been perfectly moist. Pulled pork can really vary from BBQ joint to BBQ joint. I've been really impressed with Das' pork. They pull their pork into relatively thinner strands (some BBQ joints might consider it "chopped" instead of pulled). Both the pork's flavor and texture (nice and tender with an appetizing chew) are excellent and addictive. The ribs are very good. While they're not the best I've had (Fox Bros. still holds that crown to me), I still think they're worth ordering. The ribs are meaty and fall-off-the-bone. They are flavorful enough on their own to not need sauce. The sausage has been hit or miss. The first time I had it, it didn't seem very flavorful. The second time I had it, it was terrific; nicely seasoned, full of flavor, and mildly spicy. Both times, the sausages had a fantastic snap and a mouthwatering consistency. The smoked chicken is very good too. I don't normally order smoked chicken at BBQ restaurants, but, like the ribs, Das' smoked chicken is worth ordering. It's juicy, tasty, and tender with a delightful smoky flavor. Das provides two house BBQ sauces: yellow peach and espresso-powered. I like them both. Their consistency is not too thick and not too runny; it's a nice in-between. The peach sauce is made with pureed peaches while the espresso sauce is tomato-based. Both are sweet. Sides: 1. Collard greens 2. Elote creamed corn 3. Mac and cheese 4. Brunswick stew 5. Coleslaw Like the brisket and pork, Das' collard greens and elote creamed corn are a strong 1-2 for me. On any given night, one can top the other. Ultimately, I have to hand it to the greens. They are phenomenal! I love collards and Das' are perhaps the best I've had. Their greens are flavorful enough to not require any pepper vinegar sauce. I suspect they use their "secret" cane syrup ingredient in their greens, but who knows? The elote creamed corn is a creamed corn version of Mexican street corn. It's got more flavor and kick to it than regular creamed corn. It may not look appetizing, but it's good. As for the other sides, the mac and cheese is OK while the Brunswick stew and coleslaw are fine, though not my favorites. The mac and cheese is par for the course. The stew (also hit or miss) and slaw could use more flavor. White bread, pickles, and onions are on the house. Service is quick and efficient and Stephen is really friendly. read more

We're here right now on a Saturday at 6p ish. It's not too busy maybe bc of dragon con but it's sooooo good! We're a little tipsy from second self brewery flights but this hit the spot. Their Mac n cheese is so cheesy. Don't do the pretzel. It's not the best, especially not if you're expecting a bavarian style one. The Brunswick is thin but the meats are all solid. We tried brisket, pulled pork & ribs & they give you pickles & onions too. The sauces are all thin but tasty. There's a small parking lot but we found a spot in back. We got combination meat (3) + 2 sides 6 oz of meat each. Ribs are 3. Mac n cheese is life. Counter service & they prep it as you go so no wait. Definitely a must try place though! read more

DAS bbq Collier Rd has the absolute best bbq. I ordered the ribs plate with two sides -baked beans and mac and cheese. First the ribs were fall off the bone tender and well seasoned.

One star reviews are a rarity for me, but my most recent experience at Das was truly irritating. In the mood for barbeque, I called Das ahead of time to place a takeout order and ask a few questions about the Covid era menu changes. The person on the line told me that barbeque combos were still available and that all of the meat choices were in stock. Furthermore, he informed me that takeout orders could not be placed over the phone. I took a gamble and drove to the restaurant to place an order in person. There, the staff informed me that two of the five meat options were sold out and that meats were only being sold by the half pound. I physically cannot eat half a pound of meat by myself (nor do I want to) and having to pay more than $20 for a single meat and two sides is a nonstarter, so I left. Had I known they were out of one of the meats I wanted and that combos were not available, I wouldn't have wasted my time with this place. Das really needs to get their ducks in a row regarding the information customers receive when calling ahead and making it easy for customers to place orders and get what they want. I understand the need for menu adjustments in the Covid era, but other barbeque places like Fox Bros.and Community Q are able to offer decent options and accurate ordering/info via phone. I'm sure the meats are still good, but I won't be going through the headache of trying to get a meal here for a while. read more

It was both my boyfriend and I's first time at Das BBQ tonight, we both got the brisket sandwich and some sides, safe to say that sandwich single handedly puts this place on our list as a main stay for sure.

April 2020 update: Updating my review from a few years ago and not much has changed. So being that I was near the area and craving BBQ I thought I'd check them out to see if anything had changed since my first few visits. When I pulled up outside, to their credit they did have things organized regarding the line you order from and exit and we're indeed seemingly following COVID-19 guidelines. I was disappointed to find that they have NO chicken on the menu. A BBQ establishment with no chicken...I'll let that sink in for a minute....what's next, an Italian restaurant that doesn't sell pasta?? Also, the food is premade. This is problematic for me because although I enjoy brisket, I do not want meat from the flat. Point only guy here. I then requested onions and pickles to accompany my brisket sandwich. Ya know, the usual condiments. You guessed it, didn't have that either. Ordered a few sides and 1/2 slab of ribs. Got home to find that the ribs were baby back, which was not what I wanted nor what was advertised. Enough is enough. Although I think their elote creamed corn IS the best on the planet, I will not be back to this establishment. Not sure what happened with the guy that ordered in front of me, but he was sure to tell the young lady at the cash register that he wouldn't be back to patronize them... read more

I never should've waited this long! DAS has been bookmarked for at least a 1.5 years, but today changed all of that. I didn't feel like making Sunday dinner and really wanted some ribs, so I said what the hell...let me try them. Initially, I tried to call in my order but there was a message playback about the COVID-19 operations. When I arrived, no one was in line and there were no cars. I was hoping it wasn't a sign, and I'm glad I was right. I ordered a full slab of ribs, 1/2 pound of brisket, a pint of collards and a reg order of Mac & cheese. This was my order for 2 of us. I ordered and the young lady prepared my food so fast. This was a super quick experience. The food was superb. Me and bae immediately loved the brisket. The ribs were so tender. I was pleasantly surprised how good the Mac was. The collards were our least fav--decent flavor but big leaves and full of thick stems. We prefer a smaller cut and less stems I wish I had pictures of the food, but we were so hungry there was no time. Lol. No worries! We will be back! read more

The brisket was delicious. It was super moist. Their cream corn side was unique and also delicious and bursting with spices and flavors, if not a bit greasy, but that was to be expected from a bbq joint :) read more

We tried take out from here yesterday: all in all, we got 2 pulled pork sandwiches (came with chips), a half rack of ribs and four sides: (2) mac and cheese, collard greens and elote corn. We checked out the menu at home and were looking forward to getting the pinto beans, but they weren't available to go. Also, no phone ordering. Right now, it's set up to where you pull up, park between barrels and then use one aisle to walk up and order, then exit on the other side of the line. Ordering was really quick and easy and the food was out promptly . We were in and out within about 5 minutes. Our favorite thing was the pulled pork sandwich. Nice and juicy. We ate one immediately and heated up the second one in the oven later on. The ribs had a nice smoky flavor, but not much depth beyond that. They gave us 2 little sauce cups with BBQ that was really good (i wish we'd gotten more of that!) Now the sides. The best word I have to describe them is...underwhelming? The greens were really not good. Very tough, very tangy. They tasted like they were sautéed in vinegar for 5 minutes. The mac n cheese was...different. Looking at it, it looked like shells and nacho cheese. It was more like pasta and sauce than what I'm accustomed to when I hear "mac n cheese". Grown up velveeta! But it tasted pretty okay. The elote corn was incredibly soupy. Not gonna lie, it didn't look appetizing so neither of us tried it. I'm not sure that we will come back, but if we do - just meat, no sides! read more

Best BBQ I have had thus far in ATL. Highly recommend. We had the ribs, brisket and pulled pork. Coleslaw and baked beans were great sides.

The BBQ isn't bad, it has the taste and presentation that you look for. Do not be confused, this is not Texas BBQ. The sauce is either vinegar (thin, ok flavor), mustard or something the label as espresso powered. I won't go near mustard based bbq sauce, the espresso is better than the vinegar although neither of them do much for me. The prices are good (6 oz of chopped beef brisket sandwich and chips for $12). Service reflects the southern charm and hospitality I love. Place is clean and add comfortable as hard wood seating can be. I took an Uber to get here, probably wouldn't go out of my way again. read more

We went to the Midtown/Collier Rd location...great experience! Let's start with Nick...kind, attentive, and made sure we had a great experience! The food was fantastic! I had the brisket, mac n cheese, and baked beans...all of which were delicious! Others at my table also enjoyed collared greens, wings, potato salad, all of which I tried and were delicious. We also shared banana pudding and peach cobbler, both were so tasty! This was my first time here, and I will definitely be back! read more

This is a cool spot in Atlanta that offers both indoor or outdoor seating. I got to try a lot of their meats, including the pulled pork, smoked sausage, brisket, ribs, and chicken. I also tried the greens, slaw, and elote cream corn. The everything I tried had great flavor and the meats were cooked to perfection. The brisket was my favorite meat. The combination of tenderness and fat in the meat was perfect. My favorite side was the elote cream corn. The environment is laid back and the service was excellent. I was greeted as soon as I walked in the restaurant. If you get the opportunity, check out what they use to smoke their meats. It is pretty cool, although I cannot imagine doing that job in the summertime. We had the opportunity to meet the owner and he was great. Energetic, and seemed very knowledgeable about southern BBQ. He was very enthusiastic about what he was doing and you could tell that he loved his job. This seemed to rub off on the staff as well. Definitely give this place a try as you will not regret it! read more

Nasty, dried out, microwave micro chicken legs. I threw up as soon as I ate one and the macaroni and cheese. I'm so upset I paid money for this.

DAS BBQ - Chicken legs - Barbeque Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

DAS BBQ is on Collier Rd between a gas station and Verde Taqueria with a decent amount of parking. They have a great covered outdoor patio area that is dog friendly and has fans, as well as long "communal table" seating inside. I'm not sure if this is typically how they do it, or if this is since COVID-19, but everything you order (meat wise) is by the half pound or full pound, vs ordering a "pulled pork plate" for example. A half pound is PLENTY for one person, and can even be shared if you're not overly hungry. Everything is a la Carte, so you can order how ever many sides you want and you just pay for each one. They have everything already pre-divided, so they just place the containers on your tray. For beverages, they only sell a few select local beers plus soda and water. Pulled pork: tender, moist, but I think it lacks a little bit of smoke and seasoning. They have 2 vinegar based sauces (which I don't typically prefer) Brisket: this was our least favorite item....it has a nice smoke ring but it was super dried out, which was disappointing Mac and cheese: this is a winner, really creamy! Slaw: another item that is good, but more on the vinegary side (I tend to prefer a creamier base for slaw) Collards: GOOD! It has a great peppery kick to it and isn't overly salt Brunswick stew: Bruh.....top 5 I've ever had, I think. This was the star of our order, by far. For me, the meat was OK but the sides are what did it for me. GREAT sides! read more

I have no idea what happened to this place. When they first opened they were really great, but I stopped in yesterday for lunch and had a completely different experience. The staff kind of treated me like I was there interrupting their conversation. And it wasn't until there was a natural pause in this girl's story about her ex-boyfriend that I was acknowledged. I got a brisket sandwich which was clearly pre-made and chopped not sliced, the way I like it. For a side I got beans. When I opened up the prepackaged plastic box of beans I saw some sausage chunks in there and assumed it was ham or maybe even burnt ends from the brisket. It was not. It was uniformly chunked pineapple out of a can. And it was almost as much pineapple in the beans as there were beans. Disgusting. I won't be back. read more

Had a craving for BBQ and looked up nearby areas, Das BBQ came up. It's small and quaint but customer service is simply nice and hospitable so that was great. My my husband had the brisket sandwich with baked beans. I got the pulled chicken sandwich with corn and coleslaw. The corn was delicious. The coleslaw was tangy but not to my liking. The sandwiches were good, definitely quenched the craving we had. Their house bbq sauce was good. There was one with coffee beans and well since I'm not a coffee drinker not my favorite. Overall this place wasn't bad. Plan on returning to try other dishes there. read more

BEST RIBS I've ever had! The meat falls off the bone and the delicious fatty pieces literally melt in your mouth! The brisket was decent but the chicken legs were sadly soggy and a bit flavorless. However, the service was quick and friendly, the staff had great suggestions and let us sample some beer, and were very accommodating over all. The creamed corn was the best side from the 3 that we tried so I really recommend it. Their banana pudding is homemade from scratch and worth a try if you really like banana pudding. Overall, highly recommend this place for some amazing ribs! Oh, and it's kid friendly too! read more
