Needed an evening snack, since I am not cooking supper. The hubby didn't mind suggesting this spot. The wait was not long for the food order, we were greeted upon entering. The atmosphere was very quiet for a Saturday eve. We bordered the ULTIMATE BARBEQUE PLATE 3 MEAT LET'S SEE THIS GONNA GO!!! read more

Have been going to the 14th Street Birmingham location this entire century. I don't often get through Montgomery - especially with time to eat, but on a recent solo trip to Florida, I felt I should. This is a much nicer location but I didn't care for the ribs - a bit tougher than I was used to. read more

My dinner was amazing!!!!! The ribs and chicken tender and falling off the bone. My waitress was so sweet and attentive. I really appreciate that. The ambiance and music were relaxing and refreshing. I just loved my evening read more

Use more seasonings on their meat. Not everyone wants sauce. Meat should taste good with and without bbq sauce! read more

Dreamland is one of my favorite BBQ spots in Alabama. It's a old feeling of just good BBQ. The history of the place is great. I love the food and sweat tea. Can't go wrong here. You can get in and out in a decent time. read more

We were traveling and found this restaurant on yelp. We were a little past it but the reviews were good, so we went back. So glad we did! We had a very enjoyable lunch! Barbecue was very good, we also had the Brunswick stew which was excellent. Sides were good as well! Our waitress made our meal! Pleasant, laughing, joking while providing anything we needed! read more

This newish suburban location does the trick if you don't wish to head downtown for the classic Dreamland Ribs. Plenty of parking, covered outdoor seating. Fair and friendly service. My group included 4 who had never been to any Dreamland. They loved their rib plates, the various sides, especially the Mac and cheese. Didn't know what to do with the white loaf bread however! Another thought the pork sandwich was generous, moist and tasty. Another loved the pork stuffed baked potato--still a great bargain on the menu. They would have liked more local beers and one insisted on wine and appeared shocked at the meager choice. On the other hand I was shocked that the place even had wine!" Didn't seem right? I got the half rib plate and was generally satisfied with the smoke, the lean meat, and the taste. Not overwhelmed. I would always opt for the original Tuscaloosa location, but my group liked the choice, are every bite, and were happy. Three stars for me but 4 stars overall for the group. read more

We were the only group there, so service was great. But can't compare it to much. The potato was delicious, and the macaroni was okay. Cute bbq spot, I would return. read more

There was so much to like! Overall though the experience was great. You DO NOT get service like this up North. We didn't have to ask for a thing. She had eyes on the table and brought extra napkins, drinks, sauces, etc before we ran out every single time. The only reason for 4 stars was that I felt the ribs were lacking meat really. It just wasn't what I was used to. It happens! However, the ribs were HUGE. Would we go back? Absolutely! This place is in my books as a must visit when I'm in the area. The fixin's were so good I could have a meal off of those alone. read more

Met up for dinner with some old friends. This use to be an oyster bar...and the bell is still inside (and rang at times). Plenty of parking as this place is adjacent to a strip mall. My friends ordered some deep fried okra as an appetizer. I'm not an okra fan (nor were a couple other people in our group), however,we were encouraged to try it as it's not the same as boiled or steamed okra. And holy-moly...not bad! Not bad at all! We were sold and now I'm a deep fried okra fan! For dinner, I got the pulled pork sandwich and it too was pretty good. Throw in a couple beers and dinner experience was way better than I was expecting. Everyone seemed to like their food. For me, this is a definite must stop location the next time in town! read more

I'm not going to lie, we almost walked out and didn't look back, but it's a good thing we didn't. From the time we sat down it was about 30 minutes until our server came back to get our drink & food order (to be fair, she did bring us waters immediately. Apparently their new point of sales/service system is complicated. The okra is crispy. The slaw isn't too sweet and tastes like it's freshly made the day it's served to you (so you know it's not soggy). The smoke ring is noticeable on the pulled pork, something that's not always present at newer BBQ restaurants. Their sauce has a very complex dimension: tangy, spicy, smokey. If you can be patient with their slow-ish methods, then your tastebuds will enjoy some yummy grub. read more

Dreamland is home to my FAVORITE bbq nachos! We ordered some to go while in town overnight and they were so good! I love that the meat is in chunks and not shredded. It was perfectly seasoned (as always) with ample cheese and they let you dress it yourself (jalapeños, sour cream, etc). It was so good! read more

Dreamland BBQ - Ribs, chopped chicken, Mac & cheese, potato salad and barbecue sauce with a kicker. - Barbeque Near Me - Montgomery, Alabama

For the price the quality was subpar, coleslaw was the worst you only taste vinegar the Mac n cheese was good, deserve a 2 star. The chopped chicken was super dry the ribs were crispy burnt, very disappointing, first and last time ordering food from here. read more

We were traveling through town and dropped by here for a nitecap... the bartender was extremely friendly and helpful. If we lived here, we would be regulars. read more

Meh....it's a very nice looking restaurant, clean and new. The wait staff was very friendly and nice. Unfortunately it was the food that was disappointing. It's like the guy made some good sauce and decided that's all you need for good bbq...more like mediocreland... read more

Very disappointing. Ribs were dry and flavorless. No smoke flavor at all. I'm not sure what is going on.

Really great experience. I placed an order to go and sat at the bar as they put together my meal. Great staff and the restaurant was clean and comfortable. The dining room was almost full but they had enough staff members (unique these days) and food was coming out quickly. My ribs were super well cooked, flavorful and tender. The Brunswick Stew with loads of crispy pork pieces was great. Definitely will be back. read more

I eat here at least once a week and sometimes twice. The food is great with outstanding customer service; Isaac is the Best. He greets each customer with a smile and makes sure our order is always correct. read more

First of all, no brisket on the menu, which I did not know before visiting. I got 3 meats: pork, ribs, and sausage. Every bite of the pork pile seemed different, some good, some sour? The sausage definitely was made with a lot of fat. And the ribs could have been cooked a bit longer. But what's with the one slice of bread? Could have asked but it was late and whatever.... Overall, decent BBQ worth trying to satisfy your curiosity. But there are better places for sure. read more

Dreamland Bbq is known for their outstanding bbq. This location did not disappoint. We went in for lunch on a Friday and are so glad we did. We had the BIG DADDY LOADED HOUSE CHIPS - house-made chips smothered with nacho cheese, creamy slaw, jalapeños, & green onions. Topped with Alabama Twang Sauce, Dreamland BBQ Sauce, & your choice of boneless rib tips, pork, chicken, or sausage. Two words.... Absolutely banging!!! The combination of flavors and textures, with a little heat , made this appetizer a perfect choice. The ribs were spot on delicious, fresh and tender. The service was stellar! Our server, Jordana was friendly , knowledgeable and made our experience here a very pleasant one. I definitely recommend this place for awesome bbq and then some! read more

I've heard very good things but was pretty disappointed. The chicken was plain and dry. The small handful of fries was ok. One of the meals was missing a side (even though it was listed on the ticket) but I didn't see until I got home and they were closed. The staff was very nice so that's a plus... read more

Service was great but the ribs were dry and not flavorful at all. Went on a Saturday that was not busy. I went there because I read it was rated #1. As Murray says, "The lie detector shows that answer was a lie!" read more

Love this place. Their to go window is also on point, I live next door and it's never an issue having my food ready when I pull up for a to go order. Ribs are soooo good read more

Let's start with the menu: 1. Not very clear what is or is not included with an entree; 2. This place is billed as a BBQ restaurant but it does not serve beef dishes of any kind; 3. The pork ribs are tough although plentiful; 4. These type of ribs are much better at a Chinese restaurant. Service was underwhelming, our server got a big party and forgot about us I had to go to the Hostess desk to ask for our check. My wife has already left a review I believe she filled you in on her BBQ chicken salad it was full of bones. So there you have it, never going back. read more
