Interior
Connie L.

Glad to have tried them once, but probably wouldn't come again to be honest. The portions are a bit small & it's a tad expensive for what you get. Also, the wait was long but the staff were nice & apologetic about it. We got a selection of meats such as the sausage, brisket, and smoked ribs. But the sausage & brisket were dry as a desert. The smoked ribs did taste pretty decent and fell off the bone, so that was the only memorable protein. The rest of the meal is easily forgettable.

Texas Trinity

I saw Noah's BBQ come up on Phantom Gourmet this morning and had to try it immediately for lunch! You order at the counter and choose your own seat. The establishment is decorated with fun Texas BBQ decor - you can't even tell it used to be a chipotle! Everything was super clean and the man taking our order at the counter was super friendly. I shared the Texas Trinity with my husband and it was the perfect amount of food. It came with brisket, sausage, and chicken wings (their ribs unfortunately weren't ready yet so we had to sub it for the wings). I'm glad we did get the substitute though because the wings were my favorite. It also came with FOUR sides - we chose the collard greens, coleslaw, beans, and fried rice. We also accidentally got a side of fries so it was a pleasant surprise (although had us extra full). The brisket fried rice is a must try!

Tried out Noah's for the 1st time while in the area. Went a little later at night so assuming that's why they were out of several things we were looking forward to trying. However the options we did end up going with were very good. The inside had a roadhouse BBQ place feel to it even though its connected to a mall. The guys working the counter were very friendly and talkative as well.

Smoked wings
Gary G.

Located in the South Shore Plaza, with entrances both inside and outside the mall. Large space with over-the-counter ordering. A pair of J&R smokers in the background and enclosed warming trays in front. According to the meat cutter, the meats for my Sunday lunch came out of the smoker the day before, but sat in the warmer overnight. So not the usual refrigerate-and-reheat, but not fresh out of the smoker either. -- Smoked Wings: A small order of six unsauced pieces had mostly drums and every piece was aggressively rubbed. Each piece had heavy notes of salt and sugar (possibly also from an agave nectar glaze)-- not a huge departure from a typical rub, but takes a little getting-used-to. Skins not crisp, but firm. Interiors slightly moist on the drums and slightly juicy on the flats. Dipping into the house barbecue sauces adds complementary flavors. All things considered, a little above average if you don't mind such dominant salt and sugar, and a deal breaker if you do. -- Sliced Brisket: Had in a 3-meat combo, this came as two length but VERY thin slices-- about the thickness of two slices of deli meat from the supermarket. These had well developed but soft bark that brought black pepper and more heavy duty saltiness. They add a liquid of some kind to keep it moist or get it moist, but whatever they did, it was moist. Very good tenderness and nice beef flavor, though not very smoky and not very fresh. Overall, well above average, but I'd much prefer fresher product without the trickery. -- Pork Ribs: Lengthy spares on the 3-meat combo had bumpy bark full of rub, but without the salt overkill. Moist on the surface, again thanks to an additive, with a steamy quality to the initial interior moistness, but much dryer and chewier after the first few bites. Good flavor, but too old and too dry for my liking. These would be great right out of the smoker without the hocus pocus, but as served, below average. -- Pulled Pork: On the 3-meat combo, the packed mound molded into an igloo shape with a mustard sauce coating didn't give the most appealing visual, but a little fork tossing brought it to respectability. Good bark content, good texture as far as firmness/tenderness (neither stiff nor mushy), but dry aside from the sauce. A little above average. -- Brisket Baked Beans: Soft beans, more savory than sweet, and barely above room temperature. Little strands of brisket added contrast in flavor. Pretty good, but needs to be served hotter. -- Cole Slaw: Crisp, very creamy, very mayoey. Not much flavor, but it was helpful as a respite from the heavy salt of the meats. -- Barbecue Sauces: Two sauces are pumpable into small cups to bring to the table. I found the Noah's BBQ a pleasantly complex mustardy concoction. I thought the Original BBQ was too ketchupy. The meal had a mix of good, not so good, and some potential to possibly be realized on a night visit. But if you're serving Sunday lunch and you're serving what they served me, you're going to get judged on it. I judge it a 3. Additional note: No toilet paper in the men's room. Details matter.

May 2026 (Lunch Menu - 2 meats 2 sides $20)

A couple months ago we finally made plans and gave Noah's a try. Here we are, back to get some more bbq! That's definitely a good sign. Since they've added their lunch menu, it's a good chance to come and try their food out. Bbq food can get a bit expensive but it comes with a lot of labor so I get it. My favorite cut of meat here is their brisket. Tender, moist, flavorful, and fatty. Surprisingly, their turkey is a must try too. Not dry at all. All their sides are amazing too. I've had friends that came here and said it was a bit salty but to me, it's actually perfect and not too salty at all. Great customer service, very welcoming. Today, maybe it could have been one of the owners but he was super friendly and welcoming. I'll definitely be coming back every chance I get.

End of the Dinosaur Rib!

Just amazing! The dinosaur rib was awesome! My wife loved the brisket and chicken wings! The collard greens were phenomenal! Thank you Anthony!

I went with a friend to check out this barbecue place, having heard good reviews about it. The decor is kitschy but adds to the ambiance of the place. I ordered the 1/3 brisket combo with two sides, totaling to about $23 without tip. I liked the potato salad and the collard greens for a nice surprise, as usually I would find them bitter. They tasted good and they had a little bit of meat in them. The brisket was Smokey but tender. I found myself having to use lots of sauce, in this case the barbecue sauce.

Nelson R.

Man to say this was a disappointment is an understatement! The food was way overpriced! Ribs tasted a day old, brisket was bland and the only thing decent were the burnt ends. Definitely a one and done and will not be coming back. Should of known something was up when this place was empty on a Saturday. Food is not BBQ worthy at all!

Noah's BBQ is a Texas-style barbecue restaurant located inside South Shore Plaza that feels more like a dedicated barbecue spot than typical mall dining. We walked into a casual space with plenty of seating and a straightforward setup that keeps the focus on the smoked meats coming out of the kitchen. The interior has a comfortable, unpretentious energy that fits the style of the food, and the steady flow of customers reflects its reputation as a reliable stop for quality barbecue in an unexpected location. The brisket is the highlight of the menu, with a noticeable smoky flavor, a well-developed bark, and tender meat that pulls apart easily. We ordered a few different meats and found the ribs equally satisfying, with plenty of seasoning and a good balance between smoky and savory flavors that came through without being overwhelmed by sauce. The sides round out the meal well, especially the cornbread, which is soft and slightly sweet, along with the mac and cheese that adds a rich, comforting contrast to the smoked meats. The portions are generous, making the combo plates a good option if you want to sample a few different meats, and the quality across the board is consistent with what you would expect from a dedicated barbecue spot. The food comes out fairly quickly considering everything is smoked fresh, and the staff were friendly during our visit, making the experience feel welcoming whether you are dining in or picking up food to go. The casual atmosphere and convenient location make it an easy stop for a satisfying meal, and the quality of the barbecue stands on its own. Noah's BBQ is one of the better places to find Texas-style barbecue in the Boston area, and the smoked meats are the main reason to visit. The combination of quality barbecue, classic sides, and generous portions makes it worth seeking out, even if it happens to be inside a mall.

Chili soooo good
Nicole B.

If I can give 3.5 stars I would. Tried this bbq place the other day. We did take out. My photos are showing half of a portion because my spouse took half. We did the 3 meat combo and a banana bread pudding. Service was prompt, there's an option to order online for pick up. The restaurant is inside the mall so you can shop and dine. The place is very lively. Great for family. The brisket was flavorful one one side, I wish it was flavorful throughout. The meat side was bland. Pudding was great, not super sweet. The pull pork was my fave!!

Wings
Kenny S.

So I had southern BBQ again, but this time, I got potato salad and not the baked beans. It tasted so good!

I haven't been inside a functioning mall in years and that's exactly where you can find Noah's BBQ at the South Shore Plaza in Braintree, MA. A very classic central Texas influenced flavor profile. Taking a bite of the brisket I could totally taste a strong oak flavor. With each bite I was more and more sure it was post oak. A super moist flat that I enjoyed more that the point. Still both wonderfully rendered having a smokey bark. Every burp emanated a flavor of smoke in my mouth lol. The ribs were a punch of black pepper with a slightly sweet glaze. Enough to pull back the heat but still fight through. For what I like they were a tad over with how soft the meat was but great flavors nonetheless. A very well done hot link though not spicy. The texture of the grind is something I loved. Ive had too many homogeneous sausages lately and I thoroughly enjoyed these. My favorite bite was the corn bread. The softness and bite was similar to Japanese castella. Spongy and bouncy. With the sweet flavors of corn and honey. Worth a stop if in the area and bonus you can get some shopping done before.

Smoked wings, brisket, ribs, brisket fried rice, Mac and cheese
Ev G.

Incredible customer service on top of incredible food! Everyone welcomes you in, and the ordering process is quick and smooth. We got a bunch of meats to try, and Tuesdays their $1 wings with every entree (4 min, 15 max), so we got some of those. The brisket was so tender and just falling apart. The ribs were super smoky and delicious. The wings are incredible, with a touch of sweetness. Dipped in either bbq sauce or on their own, the wings are delicious. Second time there and will definitely become a regular!

Brisket paired with Mac and cheese, brisket fried rice. And potato salad. Complimentary pickle spear, pickled onion, and bread.

Delicious. Cute atmosphere. Price is right!!…read more Got house rice with double chicken. BAM!! It was awesome. Earned a 5 star review. Tom Kha soup is amazing!! Get to this place...NOW!

We recently tried The Peppery Thai Restaurant in Braintree for the first time. Overall, we enjoyed…read morethe food and had a good experience! We ordered the **Soft Shell Crab Mango Salad, Pad See Ew with Duck, and Red Curry with Tofu**. Everything was good, and we enjoyed trying a variety of dishes. The soft-shell crab mango salad had a nice combination of crispy crab, fresh vegetables, and sweet mango. The Pad See Ew with duck was savory with a hint of sweetness, while the red curry with tofu was creamy and flavorful with coconut milk and vegetables. The service was good, and we appreciated the pleasant dining experience. However, our biggest downside was the portion sizes, which felt a bit small, especially considering the prices. We found the restaurant a little pricey for what you get and would have liked more generous portions to make the meal feel more worthwhile. Overall, the food and service were good, but the smaller portions and higher prices are something to keep in mind. It's worth checking out if you're craving Thai food in Braintree, though we wish the value for the price were a little better.
