Disgusting. Ordered a big and small chop beef and a rib sandwich. Beef was slimy and mushy. The bun was just soggy... not toasted to hold the nasty sauce and meat. I honestly don't think that was beef... it could hv been pork??? I really dnt know lol. The tough rib sandwich was expensive and lousy. I wanted to love this place especially bc my bg loves chopped beef sandwiches however, she even threw her sandwich away! It's so hard to find a good bbq spot these days. read more

I love Odoms BBQ!!! My favorite is the fully loaded baked potato. I gets it with chopped beef, butter, sour cream and cheese. Delicious read more

Odoms BBQ - Fully loaded baked potato from Odoms BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Dallas, Texas

The customer service is horrible. The lady that works front counter is very rude. She acts like she's doing you a favor by serving you. They ask for an ID card if you pay with credit or debit and she treats you like some type of criminal. If you don't already have your Driver's license ready to show read more

Let me point out a few details: This is a hole in the establishment. That's not a bad thing, but don't come here anticipating 4 star service. Babii, this is the hood, plain and simple. If you are in a rush or limited on time, this isn't the place for you. The service moves slowly. However, as soon as the doors open, it's packed. Seating is limited, and if the A/C is working, the circulation is minimal. The ladies that work the counter aren't rude they're simply used to the clientele they service. They match everyone's energy. I promise we eat here once a month. I haven't had one dish that wasn't on point. L to R: Oxtails over gravy, slick leaf greens, mac n cheese, cornbread dressing. Veggies plate: cabbage, yams, mac n cheese, black eye peas with corn muffins The prices are reasonable. However, due to inflation, they are slowly increasing. Yelpers if you want some solid soil food & bbq slide on down to Odoms. read more

loveee the ribs and beans! so good everytime. Nice people aswell, quick service. Been going for years and never had a problem

Great bbq. The receptionist is a little sassy but great food. I will definitely go back again and again but I will just ignore the lady taking my order read more

I heard the food was nasty but wanted to try it myself but The older black lady at the register is just rude as hell for no reason. Customer service is a negative zero. I didn't even want food after her negative aura. read more

Worst barbecue I've had in my entire life! My first and last visit! Customer service was horrible!

This place used to be the bomb but now I think a bomb needs to drop on it. Bake potatoes aren't filling anymore and it just lacks all the way around. The one star is just to warn others. read more

Yes, I now understand why the score is 2.6. I just gave them one star. The ribs have changed drastically from what I had previously . They were tough so I decided to try them AGAIN; they were tougher. The lunch plate area looked delicious so I decided to order. The lady serving the plate lunch was outright rude. The cobbler was extremely sweet and again the server had the attitude of a raging bull. The food wasn't prepared right and to also receive a negative attitude for NO reason was enough for me to return to them folks downtown TERRY BLACK. They ask you if everything was ok and if you need anything else. If you are not happy with something they exchange it WITH a smile or ask if you would like a refund. I truly believe if you told them you were treated unfairly or rude they would want to know by WHO. That's the difference I have experienced with Terry Black and other restaurants versus ODOMS on Singleton. Maybe if I had used profanity each time I have brought something to their attention maybe the response would have been better. On both occasions staff agreed it wasn't right but offered no refund nor exchange of food. I didn't argue about the money because I really wanted better service and tender meat. The lady on the register is nice but when running a business you need a strong arm to get better worth ethics from your employees. Your customers satisfaction is what pays them. Blessings, I pray your staff learn to appreciate your customers. The meat and service could be much better. It's already good. Just add more love. The restaurant and parking lot is always extremely clean thank you for that. read more

I do not think I will ever get bbq from any other bbq spot than Odoms! WOW is my summary for this place lol. I ordered a rib sandwich and a large chopped beef sandwich. When you go in there is no seating due to covid, but the line is distanced well in guidelines with covid. The lady who took my order was pretty cool. My food took like 10 minutes to finish. The price was decent for the size of the meal, but be ready to spend a decent penny on a good meal. The chopped beef sandwich was AMAZING!! Like it was packed with beef and sweet bbq, I am daydreaming about it right now! The rib sandwich was also delicious but I do prefer the chopped beef sandwich. The nines in the rib sandwich slide right out so in case you were wondering how you would eat it there you go. Overall I will Definitely be back to Odoms & I recommend you do too!! read more

My family has been going to Odom's since early 90's, AT LEAST! Love, love, love the short ribs

first time and last time. online says 11am, door at place says 11:30am, I am now in line to go in and it's 12:03pm; still not in. Employee are walking up now saying give them some time as if we ain't already gave them a whole hour. Stuff like this makes it hard to support black own business. I am from out of town and I will not be returning. looking threw the windows now (12:05pm) and they still arent set up! read more

Guy greeted me with asking me what I wanted then proceeded to give me a ticket and started talking to the guy next to me. When I asked what comes with what I ordered he said well that's what you wanted and I was asking politely. Very rude customer service and very offensive because he'd rather just get my order over with and I was just asking a simple question of what comes with the food I ordered. Not coming back and I do not recommend anyone at all. Loaded Bake read more

I'm trying to give them a negative star if I could . This Odom BBQ place on Singleton in West Dallas , The little girl that work at the cash register is very rude and have a attitude to all the customers . read more

I decided to try this place since it was just around the corner. I had the 2 meat plate with ribs and links. We also got the 1/2 chicken plate. First of all, I asked if I could substitute the potato salad and he said no that's the way it comes or I'll have to get double beans. Then he asked way? I do not like or eat potato salad. It would have been nice to have another option or at least some chips instead. He later tried to explain after the order was ready that other options would have been available but not on Saturday. We did not enjoy our meal. The meat was swimming in thin watery bbq sauce. It wasn't even tasty. The links were okay and so were the beans, but how can you mess up a can of ranch style beans. Needless to say, we went to bed hungry. It was a waste of food and money. I will not be returning to this establishment. read more

The absolute worst meat I've ever had. I ordered a rib and sausage sandwich. Both were gummy. Didn't even smell like bbq. The texture was like they were boiled or steamed not pit smoked! Gross! read more

This good is so good it changed my life. Now your girl knows soul food and what they got going over here is the truth. From the meat to the sides everything was seasoned perfectly. I can definitely feel the love in every dish! Great big portions sides and worth the price . I also tried a side of the peach cobbler and personally I'm not a fan of cobbler but there's was a 10/10 . I will definitely be eating here again! HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you looking for authentic soul food. read more

I really want to put negative stars in the review! I don't know what the hell happened to Odom's but it tastes worse than regurgitated cow manure served with bland ass undercooked potatoes, and plain ass sack and save in a no label generic can beans. I believe this wouldn't be served in a school let alone to a prison inmate. They USED TO BE the damned best! Hands down NO QUESTION!! Now it looks like what would be served in the hit show The Brady Bunch. Absolutely no flavor! Any positive review is bot-generated. This mierda esta horible! If this were to be served on any black tv sitcom, the family would revolt and quit! Please save yourself the journey of going across town to by WHAT YOU THINK to be good bbq! If you want the same thing for a lower price....visit your nearest Dickey's BBQ. read more

The food great, the lady taking your order will definitely ruin your day lol she's disrespectful.

Worst Q I've had in texas......Rudest service ..not helpful at all...I was so disappointed....meat dry ..thin runny sauce...no choice in sauce spicy or not....but the worst part was the none customer friendly service....we gotta do better.....I'm sure with some changes it can be better read more

This place is a nice hole in the wall. It's a very old school and grunge vibe. The workers are also old school and friendly in their own way. The BBQ and stuffed potato are amazing. The ribs fall off the bone easily and the BBQ itself has a perfect savory and sweet taste. The meal comes with 2 slices of white bread. Everyday they have different sides and I wasn't able to get the Macoroni and cheese today. The neighborhood is very rough and there are a lot of people around asking for money. They have homemade Kool Aid and old school bottled sodas. They have comfortable seats indoors and it's pretty spacious. In order to pay with card you must present ID. This place is perfect if you want real Dallas BBQ. read more

Pulled up to this place after hearing how good they are. My first impression was "it's a hole-in-wall type of place". The inside looks as if someone's grandmother decorated in the 70s. This place needs a major renovation! Random home furniture and extremely old booths. Just looks ran down and uncared for. The food wasn't good. Hot link literally was so fatty that when I bit one I was able to pour about a quarter or an ounce of grease. We asked for 3/4 lb of brisket and requested it be chopped up. They chopped it and tossed it in sauce. Um NO THANKS! Not to mention it was very fatty as well. I can totally live without eating here again. Much rather eat at Rudy's BBQ than this tragedy. read more

There is no place to sit!!! The food is supposedly good but wouldn't know since I would either have to eat it in my car or drive back the 30 minutes it took me to get here to try it. What happened to all the good establishments? read more

Ok so I went to Odoms #2 and they were closed. However there was you g man picking up and he told me about Odoms #1. So we traveled to Odoms #1. Because we were visiting, we ordered several things. Let's just say the food was phenomenal. The rib sandwich melts in your mouth. The the hot links were perfect. The chicken was tasty. The brisket was a little dry for my taste (I like the fatty end). But it was still good. Oan the service is terrific. Will definitely be back the next time in town! read more

Food is great but the cashiers are always so rude and disrespectful. Does not provide basic customer service. They shout at customers and snatched my card and ID when I was paying. I will never again come here. I'd rather spend my money at the Taco Bell down the street. At least smile when taking orders. Don't seem so bothered with your customers. Or is it because I'm Latina that you did not like serving me? read more

Look, I remember when this place was awesome and this was the hood. West Dino's favorite after hours go to place. WHAT HAPPENED? Not only did they bulldozer the projects they took the good food here away too. This was by far the worst of the worst when it comes to BBQ. The food is expensive and it doesn't justify the taste of size of the plates. Ranch style beans out of a can??? Come on. I ordered a combo plate and couldn't believe the stuff they served. I wont be back and I'll say save your money and go get you some real bbq. read more

Good food I just hate the fact when I recommend this place to my friends and family they always mention the lady in the front who takes the orders always has a nasty attitude. Instead of being appreciated of a great business she has shes making it hard for us to even go inside to even order. read more

So the food is good! Especially their lunch and Sunday lunch menu. The bbq is really good. We come here often. What to expect- Yes the young lady has zero customer service experience. Rude for no reason to anyone. She has to be a family member. Both ladies are rude actually. Maybe they have to be. Just go in with respect and know what you want. Honestly it's worth it. It is smoky in there. Again food is worth it. read more
