The food here is amazing and all the sides are just as delicious. Service was ok. Waiter had a little bit of an attitude and was impatient but not going to let that knock my review down. I had pulled pork sandwich meal with baked beans. Inside is nice and clean as well as the outside with plenty of parking. They do have a salad bar as well. read more

I got the lunch special it was some sliced pork, Mac n cheese, coleslaw, and garlic bread. The garlic bread was the best thing on the plate....the pork was so bad. Mac n cheese was lowkey a disrespect to real Mac. Coleslaw was mid it was coleslaw soup. But hey free ice cream at the end and it was only $13 read more

What a yummy restaurant. I highly recommend. Their food is good, service is on point. I will definitely be revisiting

Average food at an average price. Good salad bar. We were pleasantly surprised by the salad bar after reading previous reviews. Salad bar is $8 with a meal and $14.50 by itself. You can add the soup to the AYCE salad bar for an additional $2 (soup comes with the add-on to your meal AYCE salad bar. If we're hungry for bbq in the future, we have better choices. If we're up for a salad bar, we'd return here again. Also, if you sign up for their email club, you get 6 free chicken wings on your visit. We got the 6 free wings, which we're one of the better items and added on the salad bar for a good deal! Oh, yeah, don't forget your free soft serve vanilla ice cream cone b4 you leave! read more

The ribs are hit or miss, tonight was a miss. They were dry and tasteless. The pork was cold . Service was great though.

Restaurant is a good gem for us. As a vegetarian it can be hard to find places to go where the food fits everyone. The server was great. Very friendly and helpful. We had the salad bar and it is on the smaller side but we found enough to have a filling salad. There is also a soup of the day. It was not a vegetarian option so we did not try it but there are a couple that wd work on other days. There is also bread and then several small salad options such as macaroni salad. For dessert there was a bread pudding and ice cream. Overall we were happy and will definitely go back for the salad bar. 4 stars instead of 5 for the smaller size of options on the bar. Otherwise you will not be disappointed!! read more

DUSTIN'S Bar-B-Q - Salad bar - Barbeque Near Me - Ormond Beach, Florida

I am 68 years old and never have I had a manager of any business especially a restaurant talk to me in the fashion that this manager talk to me this evening. My wife and I are snow birds and live in Margaritaville. we have enjoyed Dustins Ormand beach for the last 4 years. Well, this evening my wife and I ordered the Brisket. When it arrived, there was a 2 to 3 inch wide section of FAT running through the middle of meet. When we talked to the server I mention that brisket was good but As a manager I would never serve such a cut of beef. If anything, I would of given it to the workers or taken home but never serve it. He said the cook cut it thick to make up for it and that we got a lot more beef than usual. Look at the picture and you can see you can't cut any thinner. We ended up going back to the salad bar to fill up. $20/person and still hungry (and I'm on Majourno!). The server who was VERY PROFESSINAL asked if I wanted to speak to the manager and I said no need just let him know what I said. On my way out I notice another person with Brisket. Much more meat and A LOT LEANER ! So they had other cuts and didn't have to serve the fatty cuts, so I decided to say something to the manager. I told him exactly what I said to the server that the meat should never have been served, the Manager then responded by saying "where is the rest of the Brisket?" We said we ate it. He responded "oh so you eat it then come over here to complain" I said to server, "you tell him what I said to you please?" The manager responded "He don't need to explain Shit to me". So, this manager not only treats customers disrespect but also treats his employees with disrespect. I then showed him the picture of the fat we cut off the meat and said. you think many people will come here if I post this on line? The manager got angry and told me to get the hell out of the restaurant. I was so scared that he was going to come outside and attack me so I got out real fast. Please have the regional / district manager call me to discuss. This person is scary! I wish i can post a picture of the plate of fat we cut off the Brisket. It's Gross read more

Wife an I come here every once in a while and it's always a great date night for us. Super friendly staff, tasty BBQ and fair prices.

I actually crave coming here. Love the salad bar and meat option combo meal. You want lean clean cuts of meat than this your place. Plus you can have an Ice cream cone afterwards. I actually come here on a regular basis and get the same waitress, very friendly and attentive read more

So glad we stopped! My family loved the salad bar and BBQ meat here at Dustin's. Service was quick and friendly. restaurant was a comfortable setting and clean. Looking forward to going back already. read more

We did takeout on a Sunday night. I got the chicken dinner with beans and coleslaw. The chicken was so hard it could not be eaten. So I paid $22 for a garlic toast, a tiny amount of beans and coleslaw. I am guessing chicken was leftover from either morning or the day before. I won't order this again. I was very disappointed in the Ormond Dustin's. They made money on worthless chicken but lost a costumer. read more

Never been here, figured I'd try it..I can see why they're at 3 stars...ordered what I thought would be a full rack of St. Louis ribs and got 5 pieces weighing 3/4 lbs.. for $22 that's absurd...everywhere else I go paying that much gives a full rack. The meat was dry and chewy And the sides aren't great.. this is a chain that needs to be revamped.. read more

Tasty food, fast and friendly people. Food of hot and rest to pick up. Like it very much

This was a wild experience to say the least. Food was OVERPRICED and noticeably not fresh. Turkey was likened to a heated up packaged deli meat. During our dining we even had the pleasure of a bus boy passing gas right behind my mother in law. The positive is now we know not to return. I'd skip Dustin's any day of the week. read more

Wow, we were really impressed with this place. We just moved to Ormond and this place was EVERYTHING we were looking for. The girl at the register was training a new hire and they were super friendly and walked me through the menu and all the sauces. 'BBQ' is the most expensive food in the world (besides sushi), but the prices were pretty cheap. $7 for a 1/2 lb of pulled pork, ribs and shrimp (fried in cornmeal) were excellent. Good sides and only $2.99 if you want to add one. Ribs had me in heaven. Nicely done guys. Old-school style place that ROCKS!! read more

DUSTIN'S Bar-B-Q - Barbeque Near Me - Ormond Beach, Florida

In the mood for a chopped pork sangawich. They offered the roll or the garlic bread. I took one of each. Baked beans and coleslaw were my sides. I ordered an extra side of coleslaw. I did not check the order before I left. I got home and was ready to chow down. I took the garlic bread order and my wife took the bun. I opened my box and was surprised. There were 2 pieces of bread and some meat, all over the place. Not between the bread. I know, that's not such a big deal but presentation is everything. This seemed to not have any importance to that. Anyway, taste. The food was good. The point here is, check your food before you leave. Don't except a sloppy pouring of food. There are too many places which take pride in there food and the presentation. It's easy to get mediocre BBQ. I would have gone to the gas station to get that. I may try again. read more

Lunch special Slow smoked beef brisket, with ice tea of course. The lunch comes with a side and fries but I opted for the Salad bar because it look so Oh delicious! the spinach was fresh and a good selection that included onions, green pepper, black olives, banana pepper and more. Lol I should of just said Subway toppings. One think I didn't like was the choice of dressings. Didnt offer Italian or Caesar. My guess it doesn't go with the BBQ. Other than that service was great for as busy as it was and the brisket came right out. Brisket was perfect and I used the hot BBQ sauce and sweet for a perfect mix. Overall good experience for lunch. read more

DUSTIN'S Bar-B-Q - Best damn baby back ribs in Florida. Absolutely love this place - Barbeque Near Me - Ormond Beach, Florida

First time trying Dustin's BBQ today. The atmosphere is like any other BBQ chain restaurant, barn like with southern style. Dustin's though is in need of renovation with a older carpet on the floor and older tables. As for the food it was ok at best. Tasted like a cheaper version of Sonny's or any other chain restaurant with hardly any seasoning. Not a horrible place but not a great place. The service was good but that's not enough for me to run back. read more

DUSTIN'S Bar-B-Q - Pulled pork lunch portion with fried ocra and cole slaw. - Barbeque Near Me - Ormond Beach, Florida

Never will I return to this place! Always has smelled great from passing by it on my way to Lowe's, but once you've tasted their food (and experienced the unhappy staff), you'll skip it altogether! Went in to order takeout for two. Wasn't through paying and one of the staff asked me to go sit down in the entrance. I politely told her I hadn't yet paid and was returned with a smirk! WTH? Got the food in short order and when I got home opened it up to find tiny portions of the 2 sides, and what looked like GFS corn bread loaves. The chicken must've been under Infrared lights for the entire day. It was dry, tough to cut with their plastic utensils, and had NO taste. Baked beans were edible, but cole slaw had ZERO spices. NEVER AGAIN! $46 and I sadly tipped $10...for what? Smirks and poor attitudes! UGH! read more

Just an average barbecue place. Nothing special here and probably a little on the unkept side. The food was average to below. The brisket was paper thin. They have a salad bar but it was slightly nasty. If you can look beyond that it's ok but just ok. Certainly there is far better read more

Finally got a chance to try Dustin's BBQ. We come to Ormond Beach a couple of times a year and have not stopped until today. Highly recommend! Ordered the pulled pork sandwich with fries. The order came quick and was so hot I had to waited a couple of minutes to even be able to eat. Our service was stellar. Which is definitely a plus. Quaint wood interior. Stop and give it a try! read more

Melts on your tongue!!! Son had brisket plate, with beans and okra. The brisket was moist and melted on the tongue, no knife needed. I had the chicken and st Louis ribs, rib meat completely fell off the bone, nothin left, had the grilled chicken option, it was moist which never happens. Their beans are sweet and we mowed right through them. Staff is super friendly. I don't live here, my son does and he plans to annihilate their menu. read more

The best bbq joint around. Great service. Friendly waitstaff. My family all got bbq ribs. I ordered the fried shrimp and hands down, the best ever! We grabbed a soft serve ice cream on the way out! Great little find. We will def be back! read more

My husband and I stopped in yesterday for the salad bar. I went to the restroom to clean my hands. The most appropriate word I can think of to describe the overall conditions of the restroom is "disgusting!" It was evident that it had NOT been cleaned in a very long time. The floor was sticky with obvious filth buildup on it. There was the usual sign requesting "employees wash your hands," yet there wasn't a paper towel to be found or an air machine. I went to the cashier to retrieve napkins to dry my hands and mentioned the fact that there wasn't anything in the restroom to use. Then I began to look around the dine-in area - it was also extremely FILTHY! I cannot believe the health department hasn't stepped in and required the place to be cleaned up or shut down! I regret not taking pictures. read more

Just tried this last week, my husband did not like the ribs & I had the chicken very dry threw it away. Baked beans were Ok, green beans are to sweet. Plus it was very expensive, I would skip this place. read more

What was once a go to place for a good lunch or dinner has come screeching to a halt for us. Memorial Day, we stopped in to enjoy a good lunch. WRONG. We both had the lunch special. Turkey sandwich on garlic bread, cole slaw and a side order of fries. The lettuce on the sandwiches looked to be old, freezer burnt or both. The amount of sliced turkey on the sandwich was a joke. Our side basket of fries was laughable. The cole slaw was actually SLIMEY and totally disgusting. We told the waitress and she offered to bring more or something else to replace it which was nice. Two sandwiches and two iced teas came to over $28.00. I understand prices must go up with the cost of goods, however, quality should never be compromised. We left and I felt like I wanted to be sick the rest of the day. I doubt we will be back. read more

Very good barbecue, I had the spareribs and barbecue chicken My wife had the soup and salad bar Would definitely come back here read more

While vacationing in Daytona Beach, we stumbled upon this spot. The food was delicious, but our server--Kami--was phenomenal. She exemplified what customer service should be. She was very knowledgeable about the menu items and helped us decide what to order. Oh, and the food---yummy! I had baby back ribs, and they were super tender. read more

It was our first time to this restaurant. Two of us had the rib lunch and salad bar. One had the pulled pork and the other had brisket. Everything was delicious. The prices were reasonable and the waiter, Mike, was fantastic. I will definitely come again. We were amazed by the wood beams and wood interior. Great restaurant. read more

Find safe, predictable and tasty BBQ here. Another great bonus is a salad bar that seems to be the last of its kind in restaurants today.

Got the taste for a bit of bbq. Has your traditional fare sad those beans throw in some fried shrimp and fried okra and you've got a tasty meal. The food does it's job. They appear to have a nice little salad bar, not included. The staff is nice and up to par and the price doesn't hurt your wallet much. Only downside is they have shorter than usual hours I've found. read more

Awesome food. Awesome service. First time eating here and looking forward to my next visit.

This is for the Ormond location. This place is wonderful - incredible brisket and friendly waitress who did not make me feel rushed. I also loved the salad bar which had everything, including some cold dessert options like ambrosia and pudding. The portions are very large. Soft, classic country music in the background - very relaxing vibe. read more

We stopped at this Dustin's location after church today, it was not crowded and we ordered the soup and salad bar. We were surprised that they only had one kind of soup when the other Dustin's locations have two, and when we asked the waitress why they only had one kind of soup she replied "Oh we never have two kinds of soup, we only have one all the time." Now as I recall, we have eaten there before and they had two kinds of soup. I told her that the other Dustin's always had two kinds of soup and she said, "Well sorry guys". It was chicken noodle soup and was not that good as it was lacking something. Our waitress never asked if we needed refills on our tea, nor did she attend to our table as she should have. She gave us the bill before we even got a third of the way through the meal. We were not impressed. If you want to go to Dustin's, and want good service and great food, go to Dustin's in Port orange. You will not be disappointed. We will not go back to this location. read more

The food is good, but the prep standards are extremely questionable. My brother watched the server prepping his cole slaw over a garbage can with her bare hands, and then she looked bewildered when he refused it. No apologies, just excuses (like she had just washed her hands). Seriously? read more

The pricing is OUTRAGEOUS for the amount of food they give you. We ordered a rib/chicken combo and I swear the "chicken" portion looks like the size of the chicken was equivalent to a pigeon. The ribs were equally a joke. We didn't even get a full size of a corn on the cob. The french fries are definitely a toddler's portion. Their garlic bread had NO garlic. We will NEVER order from here again. Completley disappointed. The ONLY reason they're getting one star is because there is no half star option. read more
