Cool place, but just not the home run BBQ we were looking for. Service was fine. Headed south through Dallas and this place had good reviews. We had the brisket (looked fantastic but not much flavor and a little too dry for me), turkey (the best meat; great flavor), ribs (ehh), and the jalapeno and cheese sausage (decent). For sides we had Mac & Cheese (good), Cole slaw (no flavor but fresh), house fries (the best item!! - lots of flavor, so good!!), and the steak fries (good flavor, like jojos). You can say we tried it, it was okay, but we won't be back. read more

Thank you so much for the best customer service, James & crew! It was our first time here and we arrived near closing time. All of the workers were so patient and kind. They gave great recommendations and it was amazing food! We will be back very soon! read more

Awesome BBQ!!!! With awesome sauce lol and amazing mac and cheese and beans. The employees are super cool peeps. All around a good spot!

Great BBQ!! Great service. Everything is fresh and the service is spectacular. Very friendly!

....... READ THIS REVIEW ...... Brisket: Perfectly moist - incredibly so since it's smoked. A true master level technique! Probably the best brisket I've ever had. Perfect smoke ring and the crust is sticky moist, not dry and hard. Excellent traditional seasoning for Texas BBQ - not overdone and does not overpower the meat... which also is lean and by the taste 'of great quality'. They did an awesome job. Definitely get some! (10 out or 10 Pork Ribs: Very nice, not too dry but not real moist. Kind of average on the moist scale (6.5 of 10... but remember these are smoked ribs and will never be as moist as baked/broiled ribs.) Same good flavor as the brisket but not as much of a flavor presence. I like a stronger rub profile - but that's just me. These are good. Overall a 8.5 out of 10... better than most. Jalapeño/Cheese Sausage: Lean and moist, not greasy. Has a good bit of heat in the throat - not so much in the mouth (7 of 10). It's quickly noticeable but not uncomfortable and will linger on your palet for 10-15 min. Was over powering my ability to evaluate the blend of meats and seasonings used. Cheese is very well proportioned and does not interfere with the pork or spice flavors. If you like spicy BBQ sausage, you will love it. 2 Sauces: Texas Sauce = Don't get me wrong, some people will really like this one, but it's not anything like a Texas BBQ sauce - far from it. (It should be renamed and have nothing referring to Texas.) Be ready for a northeast vinegar profile with more of a hot Cuban-African-Jamaican fusion thing going on. Very tangy and extremely hot spiced with I don't know what. Completely unique and has a gourmet element to it. There is nothing sweet and savory about it. Personally, I just dipped the tip of my finger tip in it and was turned off. (I'm pure a native Texan!) Carolina Sauce: Did not try it. (Not my thing.) Sides/Desserts: Didn't eat any but they have a good selection and seem to be upscale versions with uniqueness and very fresh. (Most BBQ places have sides that look and taste old and out for hours - but not here!) The desserts look awesome and professionally made. They do not include the basic and traditional Texas BBQ desserts - a Chocolate Meringue pie or a Texas Pecan pie. But everything looked decadent!! Not an issue. Atmosphere: Excellent first impression as you walk in. Upscale traditional Texas BBQ feel and decor. Very clean and spacious - you have plenty of space between tables. Cool bar area and a place one could definitely hang out at with a friend or two to chill - even if not eating. Overall Score: 4 The sausage was more hot than I like (I prefer savory spices , not overpowering heat). I would probably have given 3.5 overall but for the brisket. It was that good and I can't give them anything in the 3's considering how much bad BBQ is out there. This is a place you should definitely go to - therefore they get a 4.

I tried their pulled pork sandwich and it was really good, perhaps a little on the dry side. It did have great smoked flavor and solid bbq sauce. The sides that I have tried were not very good. I had the brussel sprouts and the baked beans. The beans used pinto or charro beans instead of navy beans which completely changes the flavor profile. So not your typical BBQ baked beans with the sweetness. The brussel sprouts were a little better then the beans but they lacked in flavor - most restaurants have way tastier brussel sprouts. The cookies they serve could be better as well, they didn't seem too fresh. read more

Im writing a review because I came to Texas knowing they have some of the best bbq in the country. This is the first place I stopped and they did not disappoint me. The brisket fell apart, pulled pork was great, Mac and cheese was delicious and I opted for the cucumber salad because it looked and tasted refreshing. The smokes pie was also delightful. Highly suggest this place because they did it right. read more

Worst BBQ: parchment dry chicken, cold, greasy, heavy wagu brisket, clueless serving people. The cold "hot" vegetables had decent flavor and could be good. Mac and cheese fair and Apple pie was decent. read more

Excellent food, excellent service, excellent brews at a good price! The atmosphere is calm and relaxing. I highly recommend.

Customer service was excellent, because they talked to us like we were family! The Governor sandwich was sublime; the candied bacon steals the show. The ambience was like listening to country music and watching football with friends and family. read more

Red flag #1... when we walked in at 6:15 on a Tuesday night, there were NO customers eating here. None. I ordered the two-meat plate but was immediately told they were out of one of my choices (sausage). I opted for brisket and turkey instead. For my sides, I chose potatoes and bbq beans. When I paid, the screen was flipped around for me to select a 20 percent tip. A TIP?? WHAT FOR?? You carry your food to your table, you get your own drinks, you bus your table. When I sat down to eat, I took a bite of the beans. They were undercooked and hard. GROSS! My brisket was 80 percent fat, and I couldn't find a single bit that wasn't fatty. DISGUSTING. Needless to say, I highly discourage anyone from eating here. I threw most of my "food" way because it wasn't edible. (It's outrageously priced too.) read more

The stuffed Jalapeño is worth the price of admission. Full of brisket and wrapped with bacon. It is a must each time you go.

Had the prime brisket, chicken, and a Texas twinkie and they were all incredible. Tender, moist, and perfect seasoning. Among the best bbq I've had this close to Dallas read more

Place is nice. Plenty of sitting inside and outside. I'm quite bit disappointed at the ribs and chicken Very very dry. They're wagyu brisket sandwich, now that lives up to It's name. Otherwise mediocre, I've had better. Service OK, gentlemen cutting the meats at least the one that attended us seemed to be having a bad day. Not very friendly. read more

Food was awful! Brisket was mostly fat and tasteless. Turkey was meh. Beans were not done. Mashed potatoes were the only good item. $60 for two! Spend your money somewhere else! read more

I went to Oak'd Bbq so you don't have to. not only was the bald head man mean & rude, but the lady w the- interesting countenance & dark ponytail encouraged the distasteful behavior. The ambiance was light and nice. However if the passive aggression and rude encounter wasn't enough to not ever return; the food was dry & flavorless. I got the three meat plate: prime rib, Wagyu brisket, and turkey. The turkey was dry and over cooked, brisket was greasy and flavorless , and the rib? You ruined ribs for me. It was not only dry and flavorless, but it was disrespectful ! I got three sides, 3 cheese Mac, potato salad, and collard greens. How you miss all 3 cheeses in the a 3 cheese Mac is beyond me; I got potato salad thinking that'd be the one thing (they) can do right only to be tricked into having mush soup! The collard greens were the only thing acceptable and dare I say- safe, to consume. I also got a warm sprite for my drink, which we all love am I right? I promise I love bbq, and trying new things, however I wish someone left an honest review for me so please save your money ! He's being nice; but didn't eat it all. And couldn't even give the food to a homeless person thinking it'd be disrespectful to the homeless man. read more

I really want to like this place, but this is the second time I've been and once again I wasn't exactly thrilled. The first time I went I got a sample of some of their most popular meats. The brisket was dry which was a huge let down. With all the competition in DFW, they definitely aren't in the running for top spot. Today I went threw the line only to be told that they're CARD ONLY! What if I didn't have a card? The last time I checked, bills and coins were still used pretty much everywhere. I asked they guy at the register why they don't warn people before they order, and he simply said I'd have to discuss that with management. No apology. On a bright note, I'll say my friend likes their TEXAS TWINKIE better than Hutchins which says alot! The collard greens are good, but they don't offer a cornbread muffin as a bread choice. The setting is okay. Nothing super fancy or exciting to look at. Some days and hours I believe they offer outdoor seating as a choice. read more

Being in Texas and having all kinds of bbq places to try, you'd really have to stand out to make an impression on us folk. This is the only Oak'd location I've been to, considering there's one in my neighborhood. Place was pretty big with a bar in the corner and plenty of tables. When we arrived for dinner, the place was half full and no line to get your order. They serve your typical bbq meats and sides. I got the two-meat plate with two sides while better half got the brisket sandwich. All in all the service was good and food as well, though nothing that would really make it stand out. The meats I got were the brisket and ribs, with a side of potato salad and bbq beans. Meat was tender for both, and they serve it with a couple of different sauces, one being more mustard based but decent. The potato salad is not a sweet potato salad, which is a plus for me. The bbq beans had a smoky paprika flavor and really enjoyed those. The portions were pretty large when you compare them to other bbq places we've been to. I'd definitely go back and try other items on their menu. read more

This place was amazing! The employees are extremely helpful and went above and beyond. The food was absolutely delicious and such a good price for what we got. Definitely listened to the employees and tried the smoked turkey and it was the best thing we had, for sure recommend. The service was impeccable, the employees were so nice and helpful, even going as far as to make us a list of must try places. The bakery pies/cakes were delicious too. read more

Came to Dallas on a work trip and obviously had to have some BBQ whilst there. Oak'd was modern in ambience and food options were plenty. I was happy with my brisket quesadilla dinner. Being a dessert lover, I appreciated the options they had. Service was good! I didn't have a sassy interaction but overheard a girl getting picked on for ordering a diet Dr. Pepper; she took it in stride but I can see someone taking it wrong if they didn't have a sense of humor. I would revisit if I return to Dallas. read more

Blown away with the meat sweats I needed today. Got the 2 meat plate and chose Wagyu beef brisket and Pork Ribs. The brisket was so tender and juicy, just melted in your mouth. Ribs were cooked beautifully with a nice smokey flavor. For sides I chose the collard greens and the mac n cheese. The collard greens were perfect with a lil heat to them, nice chunks of pork too! Mac n cheese was not heavy at all with a nice cheesy sauce. I tried all 3 types of pickles and loved them all, even the spicy one! Red pickled onions topped off my meal along with both BBQ sauces. Service was excellent and super friendly. The atmosphere is chill, relaxed and they have a nice outdoor seating area. Highly recommend this place!!! Top notch and great BBQ! read more

I went back to try more and honestly I just can't get over how nice and friendly the staff is there. It makes me want to get out more in the hopes of meeting more people as nice as they're there. Okay so the Oak'd burger is freaking massive!! I could not one bite this thing at all. The bun was so soft and meat tasted great just a little dry. It needed more sauce. Now this 4 meat plate was kinda weird that they counted each stuff jalapeño as a meat. It was a pretty nice size stuffed with brisket which all tasted so good but definitely too expensive. It's not like it was stuffed with a pound of brisket....Anywho brisket was nice but DAMN that smoked turkey was definitely the star of this plate. It was so good even my kids ate it all up. I really appreciate the employee that recommended it to us. read more

If you've read my other reviews, you know I'm hard on BBQ places because hey, it's Texas. This is setup like the traditional BBQ line, but on a slow night (3 tables sat), the service was awful. So slow that the meat wasn't even hot by the time I sat down. I couldn't tell if they were understaffed on a super slow night, or if they simply had zero F's to give. I'm guessing both. Good news, there wasn't a line. They do give generous portions on the meat. I had a 2 Meat Plate with 2 sides and a drink and it was priced right. I tried the Beef Brisket and Burnt Ends. Both were OK. Might have been better if it didn't take so long to get through the line and the meat was hot. The line had literally 1 person in front of me. The sides available were a good selection of hot and cold. The beans were a little undercooked for my taste, but the flavor was solid. The cauliflower was also OK. With so many amazing BBQ places in Dallas, don't waste your time here. If you want average BBQ you can get it cheaper. If you want terrific BBQ there are at least 6 places off the top of my head to go that are significantly better. read more

I ordered food this afternoon for my family, and it turned out to be a horrible experience. I ordered the 3 meat plate (to go): pork ribs, chicken, brisket, and an extra half chicken. I was only given 2 pork ribs, and 2 chicken leg quarters. The chicken was still a bit raw from the inside, and the pork ribs were also very dry and not fully cooked. The pork ribs looked like they were from the previous day...dry and disgusting. read more

I love BBQ and Oak'd did not disappoint. Their beef brisket has a tremendous bark and is very tender and delicious. It is hand-cut while you wait so you can choose between fatty, lean or in between. I also tried the pork spareribs, which were excellent. Typically ribs are either cooked in a way that they are fall-off-the-bone or chewy. These were the perfect mix of both. Fork tender, but still had some pull. I will be back to try more. read more

Maybe it's just that my boyfriend's BBQ is amazing and nothing else compares, but this place left a lot to be desired. I had the two meat plate with pork burnt ends and roasted garlic sausage, plus mac and cheese and baked beans. Some of the burnt ends were hard as rocks so we took them back, to which an employee said "well... they're supposed to be burnt." The mac had no flavor. The beans and sausage were pretty good. My BF had the three meat with ribs, brisket burnt ends, and brisket. The brisket was tender, burnt ends were mid, ribs were good. Steak fries were crispy. With a sweet tea the total was $70. read more

There is a night and day difference between the Greenville location and the Addison location. I am giving the Greenville location a low 5. The other location serves overcooked and dry food. Greenville does much better, but sometimes it may be a bit dry. The big difference is the people. The Greenville location made us feel welcome and provided great service. The other location has gotten worse and worse in that regard. This may not be the best BBQ in Texas, but it is usually more than good enough for my group, and I get few complaints. read more
