For my friends birthday we ultimately decided on coming to the establishment known as Dinosaur Bar-B-Que. We arrived and were easily able to find enough seats to accommodate ourselves. It was a little chilly outside but you can't control Mother Nature. We received our drinks fast, however, our meals took an unusually long time to arrive. I was delighted when they arrived and I took a bite into the burger it was perfectly cooked and the bacon was crispy and flavorful. The fries were solid and salty but not too firm . The only dissatisfaction I had was with their mac and cheese it was bland and unappealing. All in all, it was a good experience, good customer service, and good food without breaking the bank. read more

Sweetheart Deal for two which includes a full rack -12 ribs and four homemade sides for $32. Ribs were well seasoned and sweet. Very tender and tasty. My four chosen sides were Harlem potato salad, A.K chili, fresh cut fries, BBQ fried rice with bbq meats. The Harlem potato salad was my favorite out of the four. Tables are a bit small. Floors are sticky. read more

The best barbeque wings I know? Every single time I come in, thank you. A Genny Cream Ale and a shot of Beam for $6 (the 'Upstater')? Yes, I'll take seven. Excellent and meaty ribs? I think that's a fantastic idea. Creamy, decadent mac & cheese? Don't mind if I do. Extensive and local beer selection? Hey, I like beer. I'm happy you're in Brooklyn, Dinosaur. The smoky smell spreading out over Union Street, the crowds of people waiting outside with a beer in hand, even a naked baby or two...it feels like Western New York on this block, and I like it. This Dinosaur, much like every other location I've been to, is the ideal spot for a group dinner. The prices are good, the portions are huge (I can split a platter with my girlfriend and still end up satisfied, and even a little bit in pain), and the staff is always ready with another beer. It's true, the wait can get a little crazy on the weekend, but you can't fault them for being popular. When it comes to ordering, I highly recommend getting your meat on the bone, because I think Dinosaur excels when it comes to wings and ribs.* Go with them, and be happy. ____________ *I personally prefer the brisket at a few other NYC barbeque joints (Mighty Quinn's and BrisketTown, to name a couple). read more

Growing up in Syracuse I've loved Dino for as long as I can remember. It's a staple in Central NY and when I first read that they were opening up a restaurant in the BK I found myself counting down the weeks. I can't even imagine someone going into this place and not having a great meal. But just in case you're worried... here are a few tips / a few do's and don'ts for a dinner out at Dino: Make a reservation. Friday/Saturday nights this place gets a bit crowded. There may even be a wait on the occasional Tuesday/Wed night. Order the sweet tea. It's refreshing and is not overly sweet and it comes in a mason jar! And don't drinks just taste better when they're being sipped from a mason jar? Don't bother with the cocktails. They're good- but not $10-$12 good. Try the pulled pork and all its smoked goodness. My go-to meal has always been the Original Pulled Pork Sandwich and it has never disappointed. Even the roll they serve it on is delicious. And sandwich platters come w/ 2 sides... so... Order multiple sides and don't feel bad about it. Favorites include the mashed potatoes w/ gravy and the mac & cheese. The baked beans and mashed sweet potatoes (offered occasionally as a 'side of the day') are also pretty delish. Take home an extra pint of the mac and cheese. I think it'll run you about $5 but its soooo worth it. As far as I'm concerned it's the best combination of creamy, super cheddar cheesy, and peppery mac. Over the years this has become one of my favorite mac and cheeses anywhere. A must get. Don't waste your time with the corn muffins. Even dipped in Dino's famous BBQ sauce they were still dry. Enjoy the atmosphere of Dino. It's lively yet comfortable and feels like home. Ahhh I just love this place. Sooo glad it came to Brooklyn! read more

Soooo much better than waiting in Harlem for hours : ) gotta love Brooklyn! Ordered the 1/2 rack with Mac and cheese and the black eyed peas. Proud to say I was a fat girl and finished everything but one rib. The Mac and cheese was great, had spice and just the right amount of creamy cheese. The portion was really good for under $20. I will most certainly be frequenting Dino more! read more

I can't believe it's taken me so long to try this spot. It's been on my to do list for quite some time. The rice was yummy. I enjoyed the ribs more than the brisket although our ribs seemed to be cooked unevenly. My boyfriend described his ribs as just shy of being overdone and I felt the same about one of my pieces. The flavor was good but could have been just a little more tender. The Mac and Cheese looked amazing but the taste was a little off I think perhaps the addition of a cheese that I wouldn't normally add. My boyfriend had the corn which was tasty but we both expected cobs instead or kernels. Deviled eggs were tasty and so was my Cosmo. Service was on point. read more

Sure, the Wango Tango Wings are in my top 5 wings of all time... but those wings are not enough to save this place for me. Read below for the details. APPETIZERS The wings are plump and yummmmy. That is all. Order 2 large orders, and you will be a happy camper. The fried green tomatoes are also above average. The nachos, however, are just okay--that is, small-ish for sharing and not very flavorful. They could definitely be piled a bit higher and come with more meat. ENTRÉES Ribs are generally the highlight of BBQ joints for me, but Dinosaur BBQ's ribs were a bit skimpy (not much meat on each bone) and fattier than most other BBQ places around. The burger with green chilis was quite good (I shared it, and we ordered it medium rare). It was definitely tender and tasty. However, one of the other diners in our party ordered their burger medium, and the meat was way over cooked, dry, and tasteless. SIDES All of the sides are super bland--avoid the black-eyed peas, mac & cheese, collard greens, and baked beans. All of them are super disappointing. DRINKS The drinks are fine and reasonably priced for the area. I tried the on-tap Malbec wine and Apricot Old Fashioned. The Malbec was good, but the Old Fashioned was a bit too sweet. SERVICE Slow, slow, slow. The guy was nice enough, but, honestly, the restaurant was not even that busy... I expected better service for sure. I probably will not go back except to order appetizers (yes to the wings) and get drinks. I'll stick to Mighty Quinn's for real BBQ. read more

I get such a Disney vibe when I come to, now my second Dinosaur Bar-B-Que joint. I'm always coming to Dinosaur with my family so the family feeling is natural. Fathers day! Lets talk about meat baby. My father in law is coming over on Sunday. I went to the store. bought steaks, power washed the outside furniture, bought plants, cleaned the gutters, I prepped the outside so I can cook a BBQ for my family. Not very relaxing. So I grabbed my brother in law on "Saturday" and said, Lets drink a few Coronas with Patron shots for $10 bucks a pop. We're dads dagnabit! Everything is so easy here. If you have a large family? Order the Family Platter: Family Stylin' BBQ-- 1 whole chicken (6 pieces) 1 whole rack of ribs 1 pound pork or brisket 3 Side Dishes Honey Hush cornbread Honey child, hush! Now, this sounds pretty good but the 8 of us are eaters! We need ribs!! So we also ordered: Sweetheart deal for 2 which is a Full Rack of ribs and 4 side dishes. What doesn't come with the meal is all my all time fathers day favorite? Fried Green Tomatoes, Two plates please! So so good, its always a crowd pleaser. The ribs were cooked perfectly, Smokey sweet and we can't stop at one. The brisket was also cooked perfectly, juicy and one of the best, now in Brooklyn! Sides? Amazing! Black eyed peas, Mac & Cheese, French Fries, BBQ fried rice, turkey neck greens?? What the heck?? (Or neck..) Sooo good What they didn't have on the menu???? Sweet Potatoes! They make them at the Harlem location, why not in Brooklyn? I'm so happy Dinosaur is in Brooklyn. Its one of my all time favorite BBQ joints, now in the Brooklyn hood read more

Dinosaur Bar-B-Que - We tore into the family platter, happy Father's Day!! - Barbeque Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

My sister took my husband and I here for dinner while were in NYC for a visit. We love BBQ and she said that every time she ate here, she thought of us. We had a 6:30 reservation but arrived a bit beforehand, and they were able to take us back to a table right away. I thought for sure that the place would be dead at that time of day, but it was surprisingly full, so I was happy that they were able to accommodate us. The service here was pretty good, except for the fact that we didn't have any utensils on the table and were unable to dig into the food that was brought our way. My husband flagged some random employee down to ask for silverware, and the person DID NOT SAY ONE WORD TO US!! He didn't say "sorry" or "no problem, I'll grab it for you!" He simply walked away, then later returned with the silverware and set it down. Listen, dude, I totally get that we were not "your" table, but it's not like we were asking for much. Just go grab the damn silverware out of whatever basket you keep it in and bring it back; no need for the 'tude. Our actual waiter apologized profusely when he noticed what had happened, so that was nice. The food here came out almost immediately after we ordered it, which was both great and also slightly scary. I mean, I understand that most everything is already prepped and they just need to throw it on a plate for you, but it was still weird to see it come out SO FAST. As I expected, from stalking Yelp photos, the cornbread here sucked. It was dry and there was no flavor, but that's OK. The macaroni and cheese was decent, and came with some Old Bay type seasoning on top. The cole slaw was good in that it was NOT loaded with mayo or sour cream. The ribs were good, flavor-wise, but I was surprised to see the amount of cartilage on them that I did. I pulled out inedible chunks of food from my mouth no less than 4 times, which wasn't very sexy. For the price, though, you really can't go wrong. The decor of this place was nice and comforting - I really liked the giant "chandelier" of rotating wine and beer bottles. The tall ceilings and dark wood made for a good ambiance. Also, they have outside seating with really powerful heat lamps, so that's something to keep in mind. My real appreciation for this place came after we left, when my sister discovered that she had lost her wallet somewhere. After lots of retracing her steps, she realized she left it here. It turns out that the manager had actually sent her a Facebook message telling her that they had her wallet in their safe! She was thrilled to find out that someone found it and was keeping it safely secure for her. Way to go, Dino BBQ :) read more

I think I get why this restaurant is called "Dinosaur" Bar-b-QUE. DINOSAUR because the portions are so HUGE that a T-REX may get full eating an order. And Que (Queue) because there is always a huge line of people trying to get into the restaurant to come here and eat. I've been doing the New Years eat clean and work out resolution that was going pretty well until I decided to come to this restaurant. What was I thinking? I assumed I would just order a "salad". Who was I kidding? Would a T-rex go on a diet and eat only salads? Of course not, and neither was I. So I ordered the 2 combination plate with ribs and wings (mango tango). It came with two sides so in my defense, I did get salad (coleslaw and cucumber salad) as my sides. So I did do what I planned to do, sort of. So my clean eating may have diverted a bit but it was so so so worth it. The ribs were moist and delicious and the chicken was yummy and cooked perfectly. Do note that I didn't want to use my hands because we were planning to go to a show after so I ate with a fork and a knife (much to the annoyance of my company) and I was able to eat both the ribs and the chicken leaving only the bone and maybe 1% of the meat. All of us were full and stuffed but it felt so good. Im back to my diet but my dinosaur cheat day was the best. read more

I like the atmosphere in Dinosaur Bar-B-Que, it's casual and fun. I went with a group of 8 people and the wait was not bad on a Friday night. We didn't have any reservation, but we were seated less than 30 minutes. While waiting , we headed to the bar area, there's a good amount selection of beer and drinks. The drinks have very creative names like the donkey punch w/c my bf got for us. I like fruity drinks, but I wasn't too fond of the mix. As for the food, the st. louis bbq ribs was tender but not amazing. I enjoyed the mac and cheese and the hot sauce selection they have on the table. Also, the wings were very tasty w/c I would definitely get again. Not to mention that the the server (Claire) we got was very attentive and friendly even though it was busy. read more

I may have come on an off day since my friends said its usually better. Nevertheless, I still have to rate it based on my experiences. My party of 6 had a reservation for 8pm but we got there at 7:30 and they still sat us. Service was not good...We sat there for like 20 mins waiting for someone to take our order but no one came until eons later...When we needed utensils, it was such a chore just to flag a waiter down to request for some. In terms of decor, it's pretty loud and there is a bar so don't be surprised if you end up sitting next to obnoxious drunkies. For a restaurant, the food is the most important; the service and decor are only supplementary. However, the food here was not good at all...We got 2 family style barbecues and here's what I thought: Meats: Ribs- Some were juicy but most of them were too dry... Brisket- The parts with the fat were really juicy and I thought the slice of pepper really added a nice heat to the meat. However, the parts without the fat were way too dry and rough in texture Chicken- Dry and flavorless...easily the worst meat Pulled pork- Ehh kind of salty and was overcooked (aka dry) Sides: Mashed potatoes- Tasty and flavorful! Mac and cheese- Alright Fries- Yummy!! So crispy!! Pork and beans- Pretty standard tastes. Nothing special Chili- Pretty flavorful! Cornbread- Way too dry and flavorless! How can you possible mess up cornbread?? You know you have a problem when the sides taste better than the meats at a barbecue restaurant...Everything was just way too overcooked and dry...The flavor was no good either and was way too salty. I mean they did give us barbecue sauce but what's the point of masking the horrible taste of the meat with barbecue sauce? Prices were ok. We each paid $30 after splitting two family style barbecue orders and we were all stuffed. Again, it might have just been an off day but I won't be returning here and will probably avoid barbecue restaurants for a while after the experience today. read more

Me and my wife went here for aom3 good BBQ/smokehouse style food and weee NOT dossapointed. Passion fruit margaritas we're a great way to work up our appetites! Try any one of their sliders to start and anything with their pork belly is absolutely delicious. A great date night option or just gathering with a group of friends to meet up for delicious eats and drinks. Can't forget about their yummy Mac n cheese as well as their smoked beans. Only didsapointed in the fact that they didn't offer sweet potatoes or candy yams for a side choice. I'll definitely be returning to try more drinks and more savory food! read more

Yesterday, after drinking my head off for three hours at the Tapped Beer Festival at Barclays Center, I went back in time with a few friends to the prehistoric ages of BBQ. This was my third time at this Jurassic location (too many Dinosaur jokes?) and it probably won't be my last. A smart tip, if you know you're coming, head online to Open Table and grab a reservation. We had an 8:30 one which worked out perfectly with the ending of the event. The prehistoric feel to it is more of an old school BBQ joint that you might find driving down Route 66 or maybe in the middle of the desert somewhere. There's an awesome chandelier made of bottles in the main dining area which adds to the rustic charm. I went with the combinations section, choosing two meats (pulled pork and link sausage) along with choice of two sides (mac n' cheese and fries) and cornbread. The pork was juicy and tender with a lil ol' pickle on top, and the sausage had a unique flavor to it, but one that's quite enjoyable. Mac n' cheese had a tiny kick to it and the fries tasted freshly cut. Add a couple of sauces on the table and it was an awesome post-drink meal fit for a t-rex. Overall, I felt like a dinosaur by the end of dinner, but that was a good thing. So if you're lookin' for some nice BBQ (maybe pre/post Barclays Center), this Brooklyn location is a quality spot. I'll surely be coming again to get my dino on. read more

Somewhere in between three and four for this most recent visit to Dinosaur, rounding up for the convivial atmosphere and staff who definitely took seriously their job of being friendly and helpful (though really, do something about that restroom, like, ASAP). The menu was impressive with its diverse options and pricing, creating something for everyone. Rather than needing an entire order of wings, we were able to order just three ($4.75) of the hottest flavor, Devil's something or other. They were definitely hot, unlike many places where the warnings of hot are comical, but next time would go down a notch or two. Not because it was too spicy but because there likely is a higher concentration of flavor. These seemed to be hot to prove they could be. Make sense? After that we shared a platter (hate that word) of brisket, pulled pork and ribs with sides of mac-n-cheese and potato salad. Aside from being brought out way way way too quickly (the main course was placed on the table before the appetizer - three wings - was finished), especially since our server was specifically asked not to rush, the food was pretty good. Tasty, the right amount and doesn't break the bank. The tray was beautifully arranged and presented, and clearly there was expertise in the pulled pork already having sauce on top. The food here is eminently photogenic as well, for those of you who can't wait to post to your story. Along with the music and easygoing vibe, Dinosaur offered a nice time. Which is consistent with just about every other experience at one of the NYC-area locations. Reliability is a fabulous trait. read more

Stopped into this Dinosaur BBQ right before closing on a Saturday night. They had a live band playing, but other than that the place was starting to clear out. We were seated immediately, and our waiter was quick to get us our drinks and take our order. I ordered the Tres Ninos, which was basically a BBQ sampler platter with two sides and cornbread. The ribs were OK, the brisket was good, and I would pass on the pulled pork. Their BBQ sauces were good, but nothing really memorable. It was the thick, less vinegary kind. I was in and out within half an hour. read more

Great service and amazing portions! This is probably my 3rd time at this location, but first time I wanted to write a review. Our server was polite and attentive throughout our dining experience. We went with the pick 3 which came with cornbread and 2 sides. The cornbread and brisket was a bit dry, but overall still worth the try. I really liked the corn, ribs, and sausage. You can add 4 wings (not on the list) if you ask. The draft beer was fresh and on point. They also support local brewers including Brooklyn and Wild East. Really enjoyed the dining experience (plenty of outdoor seating as well) and hope to come back when the weathers still nice! read more

On a frosty, frigid, Friday night, I trudged into blizzardy Brooklyn to eat here. Why? I always wanted to and knowing the crowds this place normally gets, I went on a blizzard night when I knew it would be quiet and it was. There were many tables available on 6ish Friday, Jan 3rd. The prices here are very reasonable for the amount of food. Three ribs with two sides were $11. I went with a chopped salad for $7. Very cheap compared to my local Hill Country- Now, I have been to the Harlem loc. once, but I once lived on Union between 4th and 5th and still go to Hollyland across the street for my car. Dinosaur included there are three really good barbecue joints in an 8 block radius. Anyway, the chopped salad with good house-made buttermilk dressing was adequate. The star were the ribs- succulent, moist and meaty a really balanced rib. Mac & cheese has crust I am happy to report and a little spicy- tasty. Good turkey neck greens- gotta have the greens. I took food to go and will definitely be back next snowfall or before! read more

Disappointed with the food: diners should be able to order what they like for example the chicken selection on the menu should allow me to have it prepared in a certain way.

We usually only order from here using DoorDash for our son who loves their ribs. The ribs are truly great. Tonight my husband & I added to the order for ourselves for the first time. Big mistake. Catfish sandwich was ordered fully loaded (bacon, onions & coleslaw) it arrived limp, thin & dry. The bread was hard, pressed thin & had the texture of cardboard. I didn't see onions or cole slaw and the bacon was inedibly fatty & undercooked. Sad sad sandwich. Could not get through 1/4 of it; chucked it. The deviled eggs, obviously stupid choice, were also dreadfully salty & really just gross. They also got tossed. All the sides were mediocre at best. My husband wisely got the 2 meat combo, 1/4 rack ribs & pork. The pork portion was really small. Also we asked for cheddar on the AK Chili & they missed that. The ribs are awesome. Skip the rest of the menu. While you're at it just skip this place & go to Hometown in Red Hook or Fletcher's around the corner from Dinosaur ~ far better BBQ in Brooklyn. read more

Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Okay, I didn't have any chicken, but my dinner was a winner. Had to wait about 20 min for a table on a Tuesday (!) night, but it was worth it. Service was quick and efficient. Beer selection was nice. Swag sampler platter was great...nice selection of appetizers. But you really only get two of everything (except four shrimps) so if there are more than two of you, you'll need to double team. Combo plates looked good but I decided to go with the "small" combo plate called Tres Ninos. Pulled pork, brisket, ribs with mac and cheese and fries for sides. My dining companion had the same except with slaw and turkey neck greens on the side. Let me tell you what...it was all delicious! I really liked the pulled pork and enjoyed adding some Wango Tango sauce. The place looks great, it's lively without being ear-splittingly loud (i.e. you can have a conversation without shrieking). Only mis-step is that our waitress brought the bill without asking if we wanted dessert. I could have been tempted to split something as I hadn't yet had to unbutton my pants (that's when I know it's time to stop eating). To paraphrase Janet Jackson in the "Let's Wait Awhile" video*, I promise, it will be worth the wait. _______________________ http://youtu.be/fvKhDiNME4E?t=4m50s read more

Amazing place with great food and great company. We arrived around 7pm and expected a long wait, but ended up being seated around 5 minutes later. I love the atmosphere, especially the huge bottle chandelier. I ordered the Tres Ninos, which is a small sample of brisket, ribs, pork, and two sides. I also shared the Dino Poutine with my friend. WARNING: Everything is very heavy so be careful when ordering if you don't wish to bring leftovers home. Everything was delicious. My favorite was definitely the pulled pork. It was so tender and tasty that i didn't even need the sauce. The brisket was good but a little too lean for me. I would recommend to friends. This is a wonderful place to catch up and just hang out. read more

Excellent food service and price. Large portions, friendly people, nicely decorated place and definitely value for money.

Came here for a company dinner. We have a reservation in advance. This place tend to get really crowded during dinner hours. I was here early with a colleagues. I provide the name to the hostess. He told me that they are setting up the table and suggest that we hangout by the bar in the mean time or wait outside. We came here on a weekday, so it was not that bad. While waiting at the bar, more people from the party came in. After everyone has arrived, we waited a moment then the hostess came over informing us that our table is ready. After we all sat at our table, the waiter came over and ask us if we he can take our drink order. We all ordered drinks. The drink come after a little while. The waiter also bring water for everyone at the table. We order some wings and fries as a start. We ask for have the wings plain and sauce on the side.. We only ask for two sauces. The wings by itself taste amazing, with the sauce it even better. I order the combination plate with two meats. I had the ribs and brisket. I picked Cajun corn and coleslaw as my sides. The food came pretty quick. I like what I order and very satisfy with the food. I also notice there some kind of even going on at the restaurant. I will definitely come back to try different food here. read more

I heard about Dinosaur BBQ from a friend and when I realized it was a few blocks from our hotel I had to check it out. The pictures online were mouthwatering. I had the 3 Combo 1/4 White Meat Chicken was flavorful but dry, 1/4 Rack of Ribs tender and was good with dry rub, Brisket good with original bbq sauce I prefer moist, but still good, Potato Salad was close to home, but was diced finely and heavy on pepper, wouldn't be so bad but also it had onion and they finished it with cajun seasoning as well so it packed a punch. It was good, just ask for no cajun seasoning and add salt. The Mac and Cheese was creamy, noodles aldente and had a little kick to it as well. The corn bread was hard and dry, not worth the carbs. Honey had The Ribs, bbq wings, Collard Greens and Mac and Cheese. The greens were good, heavy on vinegar they have chopped carrots in them as well. Overall nice environment. Spacious, has a private room and outside seating. It's pricey, but the portions are good. Spent $42 on 2 meals. read more

I ordered the 1/4 ribs with Mac & cheese and potato salad. Even though the portion looks small it's quite filling. The ribs were really flavorful and the Mac and cheese was cheesy and good taste also. I wasn't a fan of the potato salad. The cornbread was a bit hard; definitely not fresh. I've been to better BBQ joints but I guess I'll go back here if I want to order something to go. As for the inside decor, the posters and drawings on the walls were very "white" (i.e. Elvis Presley, etc) - as if black people don't have anything to do with the actual excellence of the South, including Elvis Presley. Ironically, mostly all black work here. read more

We choose to come here for my boyfriends birthday . I made a reservation on resy and specified the occasion was a birthday . I do understand most likely those are not looked at . Once we got there I did go to the hostess and asked if they do sing happy birthday and she goes we can for your daughter and I said no it's for my boyfriend, she said ok and suggested a dessert and said she would tell the waitress. They did nothing , so that was disappointing and rude . Cookie desserts were hard as a rock , icecream on top had freezer burn . But let me go back to the meal we had the sweetheart deal , the ribs were dry . Mac was dry . My daughter ordered the brisket cheesesteak and the bread was a flattened hot dog bun , I'm not sure if this is how they serve it or they ran out of bread . Apps were brought out before drinks . Piled up dirty dishes were walked by several times by the waitress . The only attentive time was when I was giving the machine to select a tip , like she really stood there trying to look at the tip . This place was disappointing and a waste of money , I tipped 13% but I really don't think the service was worth that . read more
