The sampler came with pulled pork, brisket, ribs and chicken, either cornbread or Texas toast and 2 sides. For the 3 of us, we got two samplers. Sides? So glad you asked. Potato salad, coleslaw, Mac and cheese and BBQ beans. The pulled pork was tender, not fatty. Brisket well smoked, a little lean for my taste but the fattier bites were heaven. For y'all who like it lean, it's perfect. What I love about the chicken is that it wasn't smoky all the way through, but flavorful. And yum to the ribs! I missed the Nilla wafers in the banana pudding, but the addition of cinnamon was an interesting choice. We'll be back!

I saw my order on the bar which was shocking bc why wouldn't it be behind the bar out of eyesight from everyone? I waited a beat to see if anyone would come out and they didn't so I took it and left. While walking I noticed I didn't get utensils. Is that not a given anymore? I ordered the tv dinner and iced tea. The tea wasn't sweet enough for me. Dinner cool. Would I come back? Maybe to eat at the shop.

So I came here on a Sunday. Let me start by saying I loved the vibe and the customer service was superb. The cashier was really nice and people were constantly checking on us while we sat and ate. I'm from LA and this place was giving backyard BBQ with unc and auntie and them. lol. There is a cigar lounge type vibe to the very back serving up cocktails and playing sports on the big screen if that's your vibe. They also had some RnB playing as well. Now for the food. They are not stingy with the portions at all. I ordered rib tips, a hot link, and brisket with cornbread, potato salad and Mac n cheese. The rib tips were not as tender as I would've like them to be, however the flavor was good and their bbq sauce was phenomenal. The brisket was SUPER tender but could use more flavor. The Mac n cheese was too salty for me and my friend that came with me. However, the person who recommended the spot said the Mac n cheese was fire so maybe it was an off day which happens. The potato salad though (which they only have Fri-Sun) was out of this world and so was the cornbread. Oh AND they have kool-aid ! I did not get any but I'm sure it was fire. Side note: when I warmed it up the next day the meat did have even more flavor !

Stopped in last night to celebrate my husband's birthday. Although Del's doesn't take reservations, we were able to snag a few tables right next to the kids play area. It was perfect since we had so many kids in our party. All the food was delicious -- from their baked beans, corn bread, onion rings, and to their barbecue selection. We ordered the 12 party meal plus some appetizers for the kids such as the Mac & cheese and chicken tenders. Everyone was commenting on how good everything was. Honestly, this has become one of our favorite barbecue spots! Their bbq sauce is also really good, it had the right amount of sweetness and slight tang without being too thick. Would definitely recommend to anyone who just wants to watch the game by themselves or bring a large party. Thank you Del's for making it a memorable night!

Everything is INSANE. I've even interviewed the "meat guys" who hang out with the giant smokers in the back lot and basically babysit the meat 24/7. They take their job very seriously, and it shows in the quality of the meat! The bartender made me a mezcal margarita once, and I had three that night and now think of them often. It's what gets me back in the door here. The mezcal marg and the meat. The live music is always awesome. We came recently and saw the Blind Miles Blues Band play - their vibe fit with the ambiance of the restaurant so well. It was awesome that our kids were able to run around and play while we ate dinner and talked. I am SO thankful for a restaurant that has food this good that also freely welcomes families with kids! Our waiter that night, Bryce, was awesome. He was SO attentive and so patient and kind when we had a bunch of requests for extra everything. We'll probably request him next time, he was that cool. Can't say enough good things about this place. I already can't wait to come back again!

We came on a Saturday at 11:30 to get ourselves on the waiting list. They opened at 12. We were the first in line to put our name down on the list but immediately after there was already a long line. Once inside I can see why wait times are long. They really only have like 7 long tables that can fit up to 6 people each. We decided to go with the deluxe version of the menu for $4 more since others in our group recommended the cold beef soup and the prime cuts. Meat came out really fast and we were able to start cooking right away. I do wish some of the marinated meat options we got were less sweet but that's just a note for me in the future to not order those. My favorite cut was the prime cut steak. Service was very friendly and they always came to check in and see if we wanted to order anything else. Never felt rushed to leave either.

This meal knocked it out of the park. The cast iron cooking surface is unique; I wish more K-BBQ restaurants in the U.S. would adopt it. It's low-smoke, and the meats cook more evenly/efficiently than they do on a traditional grill. The prime sampler was more than enough meat for two people, but we were gluttons and added a couple of extra à la carte cuts. No regrets! They were all terrific in their own right.
