Stopped by for lunch on a Friday without high expectations. The parking lot had only a few cars, and the place was empty when I walked in. I ordered the #1 meal--a brisket sandwich with two sides: mac & cheese and mashed potatoes. After grabbing a booth, I checked out the sauce options: regular, hot, and sweet. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the place got busier while we were there. The sandwich was hearty and flavorful, with brisket that had a nice smoky aroma. The sides complemented the meal well. Definitely worth a try. read more

Ordered a BBQ Sandwich with 2 Sides. Got fries and jalapeno beans. Everything was delicious. The chopped beef was dry but I added sauce which made it much better. They even sent utensils !!!! My first dasher stole my meal, but they re-made it and it was finally delivered by a second dasher. My first dasher should be fired !!! read more

All around great experience The pulled pork was very very good, and the sausage was flavored well. The ribs weren't super tender but tasted solid and the ham was meh. Banana pudding was decent and the smoked beans were awesome! Thought the prices were fair for what you get. Will definitely return. read more

Old House BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

First time visiting. The facility had several ppl inside and servicing drive thru as well. I got brisket, pulled pork & jalapeño sausage. The sides were mashed potatoes & smoked beans. The rest of the sides did not look appetizing. 3 stars - The meat was bland, recommend putting their sauce on it. The sausage had the flavor but no heat, probably the best of all the meats. 2 stars - The sides were again, just ok. The beans had a burnt taste more than a smoked. Came in, was welcomed and the restaurant was more of a mom & pop / hole in the wall feel. Nothing wrong with the facilities from looking from the entrance. The gentleman that served me, did not really listen as I asked him questions and he immediately started putting food on the to go plate. Overall, if you want to support a small business, try it out. Walked out paying $20 (before tip) and no drink. read more

The worse bbq in DFW Hands down!!! The name of this place definitely fits the quality of food you will get!!! Okra was soggy might as well just given it to me boiled!! Twice baked potatoes is just mashed potatoes!! Brisket was so dry I almost choked to death rib were barely ok!!! The barbecue sauce was so runny it barely stayed on the meat!! I just tried this 10 min ago and I'm feeling sick!! The best part of the whole meal was the bread I threw the rest away!! If you want bbq that taste like it came out of an old house this is the place for you... oh I also tried the bbq sandwich 2 meat brisket still dry it's like they used older brisket for the sandwich and less older one for the plate!! Sausage was regular... you have been warned.... read more

Love the food here and have been frequenting this place for years however I have noticed the prices going up pretty noticeably that I have to pass on "take-out". read more

I have to admit, this place isn't fancy at all. My son wanted to pick up lunch one day through the drive thru, so I drove up. I noticed the outside of the building could use a coat of paint and the roof, well - nothing to do with the food. There was a Long line! I was talking to someone on the phone while we were waiting & she said, "Well, you know it's good if the wait is long!" The woman at the window was friendly when she handed us our order. Jump now to my son asking if we could go eat there for lunch. I scrunched my nose up, but said, okay. As we walked to the door, I noticed there were lots of flowers - looked to be hand-planted, aww. Very pretty. The cooker out on the curb had smoke coming from it and it smelled delicious. When we entered, we were greeted warmly by a man who was quickly moving behind the counter. The place was spotless, floors shiny, the sides/dessert area was perfect (see pictures). We placed our orders and were checked out in a friendly manner, not rushed or anything. We arrived about 11am, so only a couple of other people were there. We took our trays and sat down and by 11:30, the place was getting really busy. The meat so good I didn't want to put bbq sauce on it. My son said - right? It doesn't need it. That's a first. The fried okra was cooked just the way I like it - hot and crunchy but not burnt. The green beans had a different flavor - my son said they are cooked in the meat juices. We ordered out sandwiches on Texas toast, which was a 1st for me. They were SO good!! Bottom line - go try it. Nice people working there (owners?), great country music playing in the background (not too loud) and nice big windows that let the sunshine in. And the food - well, I took a pound of chopped beef home for my daughter's family - should have taken two. They loved it. We have a competitor near our house & my daughter said - we're driving over there from now on! Note to self - don't always judge a restaurant by the outside! read more

Typical BBQ joint ambiance and nothing fancy, but I don't come for the environment but mainly food. I ordered the brisket and ribs two meat plate. Unfortunately, very underwhelming and not memorable. Received the end cut of the brisket, which was too moist and almost mushy in texture. The ribs did not have much flavor and extremely chewy. This would be a decent replacement for a Dickie's BBQ if that's what you are craving. read more

From the 70's to 2013 I've had great bbq in TX. Dallas, Irving, Austin and surrounding cities. I moved back to California in 2013 and good bbq is elusive. Had a quick trip to North Dallas and while driving by the smoker smell drew me in.... I am so glad I stopped! Looks can be deceiving. Just an average looking restaurant from the outside. Plenty of parking. Inside seating for at least 50 people. Some outside picnic tables in front. The pulled pork looked delicious so I went with the two sides for $13.99. They have many choices for sides, my choice was jalapeno pinto beans (not hot) and the green beans. Reccomend both. The sandwich was nice size with a pad of cole slaw on top of the meat (Memphis style). Bbq sauce was on the side without asking, I like that. Definitely give The Old House BBQ try, I think you'll like it! read more

BEWARE! The prices reflected on the online menu are WRONG. I placed an order for 6 lbs. of sliced brisket which shows a price of $17.99 per pound but when I picked it up it was $22.99 a pound. I told them and showed them the online price and all they had to say was "Those prices are wrong, here take a menu" and handed me a printed menu. I bought 6 pounds because I am having people over and could not just cancel the order. I will also write to the City of Carrollton. If they post a price online they should sell it at that price. I called the order in and was not standing there looking at the in house menu. read more

Ribs were good but sides horrible Mac and cheese had zero taste just cheesy Smoked beans taste like Smokey air that's in over smoked Sauces were just ok 3 stars are for the ribs we wouldn't come back read more

The food was ok but not great bbq. If you're in the mood for tasteless food, this place is for u. Even the water down ice cream was well water down. The ambiance was ok, open area with tables and chairs and booths to sit at. They claim the best darn bbq in town who are they fooling. read more

Pick up order Very good food, all but the twice baked potatoes. proportions was good but a little pricey read more

Tried Old House the first time yesterday, after having passed by this place many times. I have to confess, I wanted to try this place for a while, because within a square mile of this restaurant, you can smell that smoker that's in the parking lot - a siren song for the barbecue lover. I had the daily special which was a baked potato loaded with brisket, these, chives, and other good stuff. It was very tasty. The brisket was definitely the star of the show....as it should have been. My friend had ribs and spicy sausage - he said it was delicious. Barbecue was good, but not great, and perhaps a bit overpriced. Give this place four stars because there's plenty of average barbecue around, and I'm always happy to find another good place. read more

Trying to find a DECENT bbq place in Dallas is turning out to be impossible. I'm from Kansas City so I know good bbq and I love it but here lately it has been a challenge. Ordered my food to-go and got a chopped brisket(no seasoning on the meat) sandwich, oily bbq beans and bland potato salad. Overall the only thing I was satisfied about was the size of the sandwich. Beans and potato salad were not good at all. Whoever is making these products needs to step up their game up A LOT. The peach cobbler I ordered was so awful I can't even believe they sell it like that. I Paid $3.25 for a container of gummy mush that does not even resemble peach cobbler. Who's cooking this stuff?? I just can't believe someone put that in a container and thought it was ok. read more

Local bbq spot in Carrollton. Plenty of choices for sides. I personally judge a bbq place by the potato salad. It was good. The ribs were also really good. The plates are served with a seasoned dinner roll. It was really good too. Can't wait to go back. read more

Ok ok ok.... Nothing special to say about the ribs but no seasoning and moistness.... The Mac n cheese was dry no cheesiness. The brisket was alright, I've tasted better. The cheese potatoes tasted fake out the box. The coleslaw was decent. The sausage was just sausage ,nothing really special or rememberable about the barbecue sauce neither. I'm not the one to complain and I try to be fair. My experience eating the barbecue was not considered real smoky flavor, tender barbecue I'm use to. read more

Could not say enough about this place it was awesome! Really good portions, they let you take the portion for your own sides. Fresh, tasty, very affordable prices. 3 meat plate with 2 sides for only $17.99! You cannot beat that. The people serving were so kind as well. Even let me try the spicy sausage. Definitely returning. read more

A/C is iffy. If you like cold air conditioning you may want to pass, especially in the rear of the restaurant where they play the radio with lots of commercials. "Free ice cream" dispenser hasn't worked in quite a while, bathroom doors don't shut correctly. The Turkey sandwich was very tender, juicy and had plenty of meat. That gets a 5 while the temperature and other issues get 2 stars. read more

Delicious - meat was moist and tender. Love the coleslaw! Reasonably priced. The gentleman that took my order got it right so that when I got home, there were no surprises. read more

Absolutely LOVE Old House! The people seem genuinely eager to please their customers and the food....oh my! You could come here just for the sides but why would you want to? Love the BBQ. Usually get brisket... Great bark, right amount of smoke. Their side items are obviously homemade and are like those you would expect grandma to make. Don't even get me started about their homemade rolls...fantastic. Dang it, now I'm hungry! read more

Best walk in BBQ Ive had in a long time! Got the lunch special, great flavor, fast in and out.

What initially caught my eye was the smoker sitting outside at midnight actively cooking. When I saw that, I knew I had to comeback the next day to see what they were cooking. Overall, I wasn't let down at all. The sides were easily my favorite part and had me wanting to go back for more. The bbq itself was great. I had ribs and brisket and the ribs were by far my favorite part. Brisket was good too but if I came back, I'd probably just double up on the ribs. My only really complaint was the bbq sauce itself didn't live up to the rest of the meal. Was still good, but have had better in my opinion. The free ice cream at the end was a good way to end the meal as well! Friendly staff too! read more

I have been to many of the Old House BBQ places. It not this one. The smoke flavor was there and the sides were amazing. The eat in facility was really nice but HOT. They could have used opening a door. The outside can be off putting for someone who doesn't realize how good the food is on the inside. read more

After a few visits to this place this is my opinion. It is not always the cleanest. You can slip easily on the tile floors. The sides are very plain in taste but the meat is really good and flavorful. The people that work here are not very friendly. read more

I got a 2 meat plate w/ chicken and ribs. The meat was pretty good. Ribs were great! But the mac and cheese was horrible. It tastes like boiled noodles, only. I was very disappointed in that. And the potato salad was not good either. It was the texture of mashed potatoes and tasted like cold mashed potatoes. I couldn't eat either of sides and that was upsetting. read more

Good food got a loaded baked potato with chicken. And the 3 meat plate with green beans and beans. Was good. Definitely would recommend

We tried the beef brisket and sausage two meat plate with sides of corn and green beans. The sausage was great, while the brisket was OK. The meats tasted better with their BBQ sauce. The sides were acceptable. The prices were excellent and lower than other BBQ restaurants in the area. Free soft serve ice cream tasted strange with a light cinnamon flavor and delivered too warm causing it to seem runny. For a local and inexpensive restaurant, this place is worth trying. read more

Just overall really bad food. I will give one star for the homemade ranch- it was good! But everything else ordered was really bad.

My husband and I stopped in to eat yesterday for the first time and were very surprised at the unwelcoming atmosphere. The food was decent, but they acted as if they could care less if we were a customer or not. Honestly, we've never been to a place of business where we were going to spend our money and been treated so rudely. We'll never go go back. read more

One of my favorite restaurants. I love their potato salad because it's not sweet, it's flavorful and never runny!!!! Their smoked beans are good smoky and NOT loaded down with sugar. The ribs are meaty, lean and well seasoned. The food bar is always neat, clean and appealing!!!! Thank you for great food and awesome customer service. I'm not there as often anymore because I moved but I visit when in the area. I really miss you guys but will always return when possible. Keep serving good food!!!!!! read more

The food wasn't terrible i wish it was more smoked or grilled and lesser baked. Don't get me wrong the food was still satisfying. Besides that they gave me an Olive Garden biscuit or something and that threw me off as well as everyone around me. read more

This is the most terrible food I have ever eaten....The Sandwich was so small (I left feeling hungry)....the small cup of nasty so called Peach Cobbler was more like a bread pudding type no crust in this cobbler whats so ever....It tasted more like a dump cake type of cobbler. The price they charge here is not even worth it!!!! The Big Red soda was all flat. I asked the cashier at the drive through if they had a microwave so she could warm my cobbler. She left with the cup and came back and I think she pretended to have warmed it up for me...Guess, she thought I was dumb enough to fall for it. I just didn't wanna cause the drama over sorry tasting food that was not even worth the effort. Plus, I just swore I would not even ever nor recommend this place to no one! So, the birds out in the parking lot enjoyed the cobbler cause I was not gonna even try to eat another bite after the first bite....Sorry, this was a very bad experience for me! And over paid for the bad food!!! read more

Just looking for something to eat on Grubhub and stumbled across Old House BBQ. What a gem!! The ribs! The green beans! The mac and cheese! WOW!! This is my 2nd time ordering and I can assure you I will be ordering from them again! read more

Decent you won't hate it. Mac and cheese fine I guess. Cheesy potatoes not good. Ribs best thing those were fine. Brisket was ok. I'd rather go here than oakd or crossbuck read more

Great BBQ here! They offer all the standard meats and they're smoked on site. Sauces are great-- they have hot and spicy as well as regular sauce. Their sides are good as well. Friendly staff and clean inside and out. Prices are in line with other BBQ joints. Check it out! read more

B O R I N G I had high hopes for this place as it is very close to my house. Got my usual. Hot link, Sliced Brisket, Beans and Slaw. All, without fail were bland. Even their "original" sauce couldn't save this brisket. This will be my only stop at this place. I should have known an empty BBQ joint on a Friday at noon near busy intersections wasn't a good sign. read more

We did not know about this barbecue place before we received a coupon in the mail. To be honest we probably would not have visited this barbecue place if we had not seen the advertisement in the mail. To our surprise we had a great lunch and tasty BBQ. We will be back. Just saying... advertising works! This is a quaint little spot to stop in for your favorite BbQ meat. Pork ribs, pulled pork, beef brisket, jalapeno sausage, chicken, you name it. All of the sides were fresh and delicious. The establishment was clean and well taken care of. Thank you Old House BBQ! read more
