Food was so good; The camera didn't get to eat first! My boyfriend and I decided to try out Dickey's yesterday, it was absolutely delicious! I ordered the 2 meat combo with brisket, jalapeño cheddar sausage, mac & cheese, and fried okra. The fried okra was honestly the best! It is my first time trying it, and I really enjoyed it. I also had a slice of their pecan pie. As far as the atmosphere, everything was very clean, the staff was extremely welcoming. As we were eating, the owner walked up and introduced himself. His customer service and friendliness was wonderful and gave it a very genuine feel. The food was five stars. The customer service was five stars, and we will definitely be back! read more

I'm not sure why this place doesn't have better reviews - I'm a big fan!! I've come a couple of times and have been most excited about their sides - definitely always ordering fried okra (super yummy, even after the 30 minute drive home), and I was more into the baked potato casserole than the baked beans (very liquidy). I love the turkey, chicken breast (both weren't dry at all!) and the pork ribs. The sliced brisket was also yummy but I'd definitely order the other three meats again. I love the spicy bbq sauce - adds a real kick! I tried the cornbread and Texas toast and both were yummy, but the Texas toast seems a lot bigger! Honestly, I've never paid full price here, so the portion sizes don't really bother me. I also joined their rewards program and already scored 800 points and enough for a 2 choice plate, and got other great deals emailed to me, like buy a large soda ($4) and get a free pulled pork sandwich (stuffed with meat and with added onions and pickles), buy $30 gift card, get a bonus $10 card. I'll definitely be back and looking forward to trying their entire menu!! read more

Food was great! The new owner came to my table and asked how everything was. I thought that was very personable and made a really good impression. Highly recommend! read more

I was in Kapolei so decided to drop by. I was a little hesitant due to a lot of bad reviews here but I enjoyed today's order. I got the two meat plate with beef brisket and pulled pork and got fried ocra, French fries and paid a little more for a cornbread instead of a dinner roll. The beef brisket was seasoned well and very moist. The pulled pork was what it is, pulled pork. I think I'll get something different next time because I'm used to kalua pig which is local. The fried ocra was yummy. My French fries tasted burnt which was my only complaint. I would return for their beef brisket and fried ocra. read more

I don't typically write reviews unless something is god-awful or extremely stellar. I'm a combat veteran and have eaten some pretty bad food during my tours, and for this to be an American establishment, I am extremely disappointed. I got the 3 choice plate yesterday, sliced brisket, pork ribs, and kielbasa. The brisket was gray, dry, and flavorless, akin to a bad roast beef. The ribs were a step lower quality than the ready made ribs at Costco. The sausage seemed store bought. read more

I stopped coming here because the last time I came (about a year ago) the food sucked and they ran out of a lot of the sides. Heard there was a new owner, so thought I'd give it a try. I am so happy I did. The food is sooo delicious!! I got the ribs and pulled pork and it was excellent. I normally do not order ribs and pulled pork because most places it's greasy, dry and too smoky for me. This one was very tasty and not greasy at all. The bbq sauce was good too not overpowering where you can't taste the meat. I also got a large okra and beans. The amount of okra they gave me is way more than they previously gave and it was hot, crunchy and not too salty. The beans were perfect, not too sweet or salty like other places I've tried. The place is clean and well kept. Before the floor by the soda machine was sticky and the tables were sticky too. The people are very friendly and helpful. They have an expanded menu (more than before) but not everything was available, didn't have country fried steak :( but they just opened so it's understandable. I'm happy and satisfied with what I got. Next time I'll try the brisket and if it's like what I got today, I won't be disappointed. I live in Mililani so it was a drive. However it was so worth it. I will be back for more of their delicious food. read more

The service was excellent and the food was amazing the hospitality was great a got to meet the owner pls come down you won't regret it will come again read more

Brisket tasted like pot roast. Brisket was chewy, like they boiled the meat. Doesn't seem like it was in the vicinity of a smoker, let alone inside one. If you're looking for bbq go somewhere else. If you're looking for boiled meat this is your place! read more

First time trying this place. At 530pm I pulled up and there was no other customers, I wondered if it was closed but I saw staff moving around. Ordered 2 plates. We tried the pork ribs, brisket and jalapeno sausage. Brisket was too fatty. Ribs a touch dry. Food was ok, but $42 for 2 people, no drinks, it's pretty steep. read more

Brisket is good! People are nice. Since they just opened will give them another shot. Food is lukewarm at best. Smoked chicken is dry dry dry. Was hoping for a good BBQ spot on Oahu.... Guess I have to keep looking. read more

This isn't just BBQ it's a blessing to me. I had to pause midbite and give prayer of thanks because this Dickey's is that good. You can feel the love, the pride, and the anointing in every bite. Not everyone carries the BBQ spirit, but this it's got it. No shortcuts, no dry meat, no off flavors, just smoky, tender, seasoned to perfection goodness. Huge mahalo to the new owner and team. Thank you for pouring your heart into this place cause shows. This isn't just food it's soul work. Aloha and Blessings! read more

They are trying to make it during a tough time. Ribs were meaty but portions of sides were small. Mac and cheese seemed like velveeta or nacho cheese. Drink machine was broken. Hard to find and enter the location. Confusing to enter the place. Service was decent and there is outside seating. The atmosphere was rustic and casual. read more

This is what you receive when you order fries from Dickey's. Not even half full. We had two and the other was a just a little bit more. Not to mention the brisket was 80% fat. All fries are oily, but their fries are extra oily & soggy "fresh" out of the fryer. Pulled pork was delicious, though. Not to mention the staff tossing around a sleeve of bread. The "cook" asked someone to get him the bread from the fridge, she went it, got it and tossed it to him. Then he tossed it back. And she tossed it back. I don't get what that was for but was not very professional. Especially they know everyone can see them. For your price, do better Dickey's Barbecue Pit ‍ read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Hand-Cut Fries - American Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

I love BBQ! and loved this place when they first opened. Not so much anymore. The past few times I came here, the service was pretty terrible for take-out. If you request for the drive up take-out, they will not go to your car, they will stare at you from inside of the restaurant and laugh at you. 2 stars because the sides are pretty good, but the meats seem dry and they serve a much smaller amount. I also ordered a gallon of sweetened iced tea, and because they didn't have the gallon size container, they gave it all to me in cups! a gallon worth of iced tea in cups, with no cup holder either. read more

Food is junk and customer service is subpar. We were ono for bbq (not local kine) so we stopped in for the first time. Pork ribs tasted like pork sausage, was dry and little bit tough. Brisket was ok but needed plenty sauce on top. Mac and cheese tasted premade kine and was dry like was sitting out. Fried okra was ono but was definitely tasting like premade frozen. For some reason I thought they had sweet tea. I was disappointed. Maybe I came on an off day (weekend around noon) but this place isn't one I would recommend. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - First time here. Not disappointed at all. Food was good. We got the 3 meat plate. Staff was friendly. Restaurant was clean. - American Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

The establishment was very nice and clean inside. The workers were also very nice, approachable, and respectful. However, the food was alright the brisket was more on the tougher side but it was flavored very well. Also their mac & cheese is similar to velveeta but didn't really have any cheese flavor and their baked potato casserole was alright nothing special could use some more seasoning. But the jalapeño and cheddar kielbasa was very good it had a nice snap and very flavorful. Their cornbread was also very delicious not dry at all very moist and had a nice buttery taste to it! read more

If you are hungry but don't want fast food, this place will get your meat cravings quickly and without the unhealthy fast food options. They have good sides that compliment the meats. I would recommend the brisket and ribs with the beans and mac and cheese. read more

If you were ever curious about their quality of food, DON'T BE. It's Horrible. Food was cold when I got my order and I paid extra for priority. The 1 piece of rib that I got was the best thing out of everything. Cooked perfectly and the taste was great! I spent over $80 for the food. and literally, ONLY the rib had a good taste to it. The brisket was cooked nicely it just had no taste to it ! The pulled pork was way too salty, as if they spilled a whole shaker on to it. Seriously! So bad! The drinks are a complete rip off. They make you pay $5 for the big yellow cup only to receive a 20oz paper cup!! I was really disappointed. Waste money going there. Even something as simple as Mac n cheese couldn't be cooked right. It was cheese SOUP with some noodle. The green beans were way too salty, couldn't even enjoy that. Lol. Smh. This was such a let down. read more

Food - brisket was dry and cold , sausage was the same. Heard it was under new management, came to try it out , wouldn't recommend it if you have a family to feed, not worth it . Menu over priced probably only good for a single Military person. It's definitely not a family place to eat. Portions can't be comparable to the prices. Sorry just stating the facts. If they continue in this manner, I give this place till November. read more

Under new ownership and it was great! Very friendly staff and owner. Store was clean and food was delicious.

Today's 2nd visit in 10 years to Dickey's was disappointing. I'm sure I'm showing my age and my expectation about service and cleanliness are probably unrealistic .. BUT .. it was terrible. 1) Young staff - We were greeted when we walked in but that was the end of the customer service. There was no help with ordering, no suggestions offered.. just blank faces. It might as well have been self service. 2) The food LOOKED enticing. When we tasted it, it was barely lukewarm. The okra tasted slimy, the brisket tasted like there was a layer of grease like it was sitting for a while and the Mac and cheese tasted old and it was cold and hard. 3) The tables were sticky, the soda/ice machine was filthy. I won't go on. Suffice it to say, they need help. read more

Brisket on a brioche bun was really good with a side of fried okra. We will go back. Nice staff and quick service.

It's been a while, so we thought we'd see if it got better here. Prices have increased, which is to be expected. Meat is still served cold. The workers here have no personality. Food is average, service was average. On the plus side, tables were clean this visit. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - 2 meat plate. Missing the fried okra (still cooking it). - American Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

Ordered 1/2 lb brisket chopped but received sliced. Meat was tender and tasty but extremely oily. I'd suggest you dump the meat on a bunch of paper towels to soak up some of the oil. I also had the coleslaw. Taste almost similar to KFC except the cabbage was not chopped up a fine and a little on the soggy side so I don't think it was fresh. The place looked clean and maintained and the work team were also nice and well mannered. read more

Food is good. Usually I hate brisket, but theirs it pretty good. The meat could be softer and juicier, it's only bc I had Oklahoma Joes in CONUS. It's an alternative for a meat place, but it's kinda far. At least they serve beer by weight, I'm not a beer drinker, so I can't review the taste of it. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Front menu - American Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

The husband was craving some Texas style bbq and this was the only place nearby that could fit the bill. Although Dickey's has been around for a long time, this was our first time getting food there. We ordered the pulled pork plate and the brisket plate, along with barbecued beans, potato salad, cabbage slaw and Mac and cheese for the sides and also tried both the roll and cornbread. Don't expect Texas-size plates. The portion sizes are decent- we had a bit more of the pulled pork left over after we each had our fill. I thought both the meats were a touch too salty for my liking. The original bbq sauce was alright; average in terms of flavor. I thought the cornbread muffin was on the drier/crumbly side. The other side dishes were pretty good; I'm not a fan of mayonnaise so I enjoyed both the slaw and potato salad. Overall it satisfied the hubby's bbq craving, prices were fairly reasonable, and service was quick and friendly. read more

First time and it was ono! The ribs was soft and the meat would just fall off the bone. We got the original barbecue sauce and I love it. It has a smokey taste. We got the mashed baked potatoes- it was ok. Kids loved the Mac & cheese. No dine in just take out. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - American Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

This is our first visit today and i would not recommend this place at all. The place is completely messy and sticky like they clean it maybe once a month, if that. We ordered two brisket combo sandwiches and there was barely any meat in the bun. Completely, not worth the price i paid for them. It wasnt even warm. The fries were greasy and burnt and seemed like they were sitting there all day. The customer service is non existent. This is an extremely poor quality branch that i would never recommend to anyone. This place needs a total revamp in customer service and quality of food. read more

Was missing Texas a lot and decided I wanted bbq. Dragged the coworkers here for lunch as it's the closest place with bbq to the office... Ordered the two meat combo with brisket and sliced polish sausage, corn bread, mac n cheese, and the baked potato casserole. Food arrived and my sausage was wrong. They gave me the jalapeño sausage which would normally not be a issue, but I'm allergic. Brought it to their attention, the girl behind the counter said her bad she put the wrong one and it was quickly addressed. Awesome! Brisket was okay. Not like anything from Texas. Makes me miss Rudy's. The sausage was good. The sides were decent. Nothing had a homemade taste to it. The cornbread existed. Oversell the service was good! Issues addressed quickly and taken care of. The food wasn't bad, but not what I was looking for. Prices are in line with everywhere else in Hawai'i, so it's affordable. If you've never had real bbq you'd think it was great. Will probably be back in the future when the bbq cravings are too much to ignore. read more

Stopped by about a month ago, it seems like there are fewer menu options and the prices went up? Additionally, we were not greeted even though the girls working had all their eyes on us. We left. I understand rising cost is oftentimes passed on to the consumer and while I love me some texas style bbq, the food doesn't supersede the cost to settle for less. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Fatty fat fat chopped brisket, potato salad, coleslaw and cornbread muffin - American Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

Only two people dining in Friday around 630 PM on 6-28. Out of fries No unsweet tea Beer wall out of service Marketing displays peeling off the wall Not sure when drink area was last cleaned 4 staff and they can't resolve issues or keep a restaurant in clean working order. Brisket has no flavor and greasy with a lot of fat for being sliced. Pulled pork very salty but the sausage seemed good. It's apparent this place is not managed properly and needs some work. We love BBQ and would like to go back but we are not seeing that in our future right now. read more

We hosted a party at our house and one of our guests brought an assortment of food from Dickey's including sausage, ribs, brisket, Texas toast, beans, cole slaw, mashed potatoes, fried okra, French fries, and probably some other stuff I missed. Everything was pretty good with the brisket being my favorite. read more

So they mess up and forgot sides and BBQ sauces from my order and guess what the owner Danny says I can do if I want a refund? I can drive back and give back my order before and then get my refund. How's that crap? They mess up and I'm the one that has to be punished for it. If I could give 0 stars I would but since I can't, 1 star it is. I'll be posting this on Yelp, your FB page, and heading to your corporate office as well. I'll never go back here and urge others to not go back either; since they wanna charge you for a meal but not give you the full meal and when it comes down to them fixing their mess up...you're punished for it! read more

Place looks exactly the same as before. AC was broken so they had 2 running fans. Didnt smell like a bbq joint. Ordered the brisket sandwich, buffalo and Nashville chicken sandwich. Dont bother getting the chicken sandwiches. They are processed pieces of chicken on a bun that looked incredibly sad. Would rather have gone to Popeyes The brisket was ok. It was one slice from the flat cut up into 3 pieces and put in between a bun. Mediocre at best. The wrapping from the sandwiches was coming undone in the bag, and there were bo napkins. Hope this new owner has success but its def going to be hard to accomplish. read more

Got two plates today and it cost $50. SURELY it would've been scrumptious...it was mid. The brisket was so dry /: and the chili was so salty. For such high prices I'd expect a bit more consistency with the menu photos and the actual meals. The brisket was not pink in the center as you'd think it should be. Just look at the pics lol it's so dry it's shredding apart. Sighhhhhhh read more

What happened to the great Dickeys that opened a few years ago?! Used to be plenny food and ono not to mention busy! No patrons in site, filthy windows and a menu that's seriously hemojag! $20 for one small dry sandwich, 1/4 order fries (see photo,) and a soda! Das nutz and should be a decent meal! Was not even close! Fries was soggy, too salty and overcooked! PLUS the bag only 1/4 full! Bun greasy on top but pulled pork dry inside. This was one place in Kapolei that I could get caffeine free diet coke but "not available " The outdoors seating isn't set up, chairs and tables just stacked in corner. and bistro light hanging any kine! Inside only had a few tables and chairs set up... talk about going to hell in a hand basket! This previously great BBQ is the epitome of that saying, read more

I don't like giving a bad review but this one deserves it. Food was a no go. The meats was cold and tasted like it was sitting out all day. okra was slimy and the beans was cold and tasted like it was straight from the can. Very disappointed because we wanted some good smoke meats. Service was horrible, no offered to help us order while looking at the menu for like 10 minutes. Just need better customer service, the workers look like they were in high school and needed better training and better supervision. Went to put ice in my cup and part of the mechanism for the soda machine fell out and no one came to help fix it or pick it off the ground. I picked it up and asked how do I fix it and they said to just put it on the side. Go to fill up my drink and what do I see mold on fountain, looked like it wasn't cleaned for a while. Restaurant needs some TLC from the workers and owner. Tables were sticky, splatters all over the walls, floors by soda machine had remnants of spilled drink that no one wiped. Dickey's you guys need to do better and train your staff to assist customers, keep your place clean and serve better food. Sorry but I wasted my money and I hope you guys fix this. Good luck. read more
