I'm not sure why this restaurant is rated 3.5 stars, they're food, service and ambience are great. I have tried their Soulman's Sandwich with sliced Brisket and it is delicious with their spicy barbecue sauce, tender meat and the hoagie bread. Also their Ribs are slow-smoked, tender fork, to eat with or without the barbecue sauce anytime. read more

The food is good, they don't answer the phone. I was there, they have no drive through. The line was too long for me to stand in because I am disabled with a spine injury that gives me severe pain if I have to stand in place for more than 5 minutes. I needed to call my order in for to go. read more

1st time eating there and the last time eating there Food got me so sick been throwing up going on 8 hours now do not eat here read more

Some authentic Texas BBQ Walking distance from the Pilot Truck stop. If any truckers are looking for a good meal in the area I'd definitely recommend checking this spot out. Ribs fell right off the bone and the chicken was seasoned to perfection. Wasn't a big fan of the brisket or potatoes but the Mac and cheese and Texas toast saved the day. Staff was friendly and give old western saloon vibes. Will be coming back! read more

Always love Soulmans! Great staff, super friendly and helpful, great specials and options for all price ranges. We got thr double barrel baked potato with brisket and the 2 meat plates woth turkey, brisket, coleslaw, and ranchero beans. Bathrooms were clean ans stocked, it had plenty of seating, and a plus I wasnt expecting- soft serve was available for free (with purchase of course)!! They also had a sign advertising that they do fundraising for schools and non-profits! We will 100% be looking into getting one on the books :) read more

This was our second option for the night as the 1st one was closed. We should've gotten Chinese or something different. The food was ok, nothing like what our first choice would've been. Guys behind the counter didn't seem too happy to be there. Had they been playing different music I might have enjoyed my time inside eating a bit more. If you're looking for mediocre BBQ, look no further. read more

Soulmans Bar-B-Que - 3 meat combo with an extra side! - Barbeque Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I sent my daughter to the Lancaster location for me. I ordered the Out of Sight which is a 6 inch sandwich and 2 six ounce sides of your choice. I ordered the chopped brisket sandwich and potato salad and coleslaw. The brisket looked like mush had no flavor and was barely any on the bun ( which was small to begin with). It didn't look like brisket nor did it taste like it had been on a grill. The potato salad was so sour it had to be made with dill pickles and mustard. The slaw was just as sour and it was dry. I tried to eat but I just couldn't. I ended up throwing 3/4 of the meal in the trash! The best thing was the original barbecue sauce. I'm really upset about this, as I've been worrying my daughter for a month about eating here. I will not try this again. read more

Staff were friendly and helpful as this was my first time eating here. Food was on point and would put this in my list of favorite places to eat. Clean and well kept establishment with good service and good food, well what more could you ask for. read more

Best bbq around the DFW area. The sausage is very flavorful. The bbq chicken is the best chicken I've ever had. It was very moist and seasoned very well. The chopped bbq just as good as well. Don't forget to get their sweet tea. Amazing bbq and very friendly service! read more

I spend $54 at this place. One of the worst tasting barbecues I've ever had in my life. The brisket has no taste whatsoever. No salt, no pepper, no nothing. It is meat, the beans and something to just do together. I wasted $54 with these people at this location. The food was subpar. I had to give it a rating or grade. I would say a d the service was cold. Uninviting unwelcome, I know now I'm taking my butt back to spring Creek BBQ. I will never go here again. I'm going to take my money and my black. You know what back to spring Creek BBQ where I know the food is decent unwelcomed. I don't feel nothing at their own place read more

This place is mediocre. The owner does not treat all his customers the same! He speaks to who he want to speak to and he give bigger portions of meat to certain customers as well. I always get the out of sight special with backed potato the sandwich has a handful of meat and the potato toppings are sparse! Not worth the money, you will still be hungry and disappointed! Do not recommend at all!! read more

Soulmans Bar-B-Que - Out of sight special which comes with a chopped beef sandwich and 2 veggies or loaded baked potato. - Barbeque Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This business does not believe in doing what the customer asked for! I've ordered from them twice and both times my order was delivered incorrect and missing items! The baked potatoes were under cooked, there was no extra bbq sauce added as per my request, no pickles, banana peppers or other condiments that I've requested! Business owners, (Black ones in particular) need to start reading and following customers instructions if they plan on staying in business! read more

Decent BBQ if your not going to make your own. Smoked turkey is tasty. Brisket moist, fried cabbage had good flavor. My favorite is the loaded potato. Ribs just okay for me also not a huge fan of the beans or potato salad. read more

I love how this bbq spot is open on sundays while the others close early. They gave me the best experience and I highly recommend anyone to come here that craves bbq and good deserts read more

We were only in the area for about 48 hours and wanted some good barbecue. Quick and friendly service. Flavorful goodness. Spacious seating area. We enjoyed the freshly chopped brisket, as well as the spicy potatoes, Mac and cheese, and the soul bowl. They even gave us some banana pudding for the Little Guy (I got a bite and it was delish - very banana-y). Great experience! read more

Soulmans Bar-B-Que - Double Barrel with Brisket and original bbq sauce - Barbeque Near Me - Dallas, Texas

No benefit to ordering early food was meh. I placed a larger order for a holiday gathering days in advance. I then received a call 30 minutes before pickup telling they were out of French Fries and Texas Toast. I asked how they ran out of food with such a large notice, only to be told their system prints all the tickets just before pickup time. The meats were fantastic as always, the sides were lacking. The buns I ordered were carelessly thrown into a paper bag with half of them being damaged in the process. I would still recommend if you were dining in and ordering single meals, but don't do family style in large quantitie. Save yourself the embarrassmen. read more

I had a great time here! I appreciated the efficiency in the serving line. Also, I enjoyed being able to quickly access the condiment buffet. For ambience, the seating was well organized, and the internal temperature of theestablishment is comfortable. read more

Had the rib dinner... Whoever smoking and preparing the meats need a raise ..., Cause they definitely know they way around the smoker bbq pit or whatever they cooking on ... The ribs were so on point... but them sides.... Jesus fix it that fried cabbage was terrible... the green beans tasted like they just seasoned it with seasoning salt... I gave 4 stars because I was highly satisfied with the ribs.... they were tender and very favorable to the bone... Service was great also no complaints on that end .... read more

Great Smoked Chicken, Great Service, great location and easy to find. The Cole slaw was so so, I would recommend the Loaded baked potato.

Yelp 100 Challenge 2018: 93/100 This Soulman's BBQ is located near the industrial area of Dallas. Lots of manufacturing workers coming here for lunch, and this is the perfect place to grab a quick lunch! You line up immediately to the right of the front door to get food. I opted for the meat plates (you can choose multiple meats depending on what you want), and I ordered the brisket since I love a good Texan dry-rub brisket! You then pick out whatever sides you want from the cafeteria style trays, and pay at the end of the line. You seat yourself at the tables available, and be ready to be joined by strangers as they are large tables and this place fills up around lunch time. I really like that the sliced brisket was very thinly sliced. The slices that I got was perfectly balanced between having fat and not TOO much, the thin slices also helped with some of the drier side of the meat, since it's thinly sliced I didn't find it so bad. There's also an ice cream machine by the bathroom near the soda fountain, which was a cherry on top for this meal. Like other reviews, this is definitely not the best BBQ around town. But if you're in the area in and want a quick fix of Texan BBQ, this location is the place to go! read more

I ordered a 2 meat bbq plate with ribs, beef brisket, mashed potatoes, and mac 'n cheese. The brisket was excellent and the ribs were just as good. The sides were just okay, though. I don't think the mac 'n cheese is homemade, but I've been wrong before. The best thing about this meal, and keep in mind that the meats were both really good, was the bbq sauce. I just had the best bbq sauce I've ever had in a restaurant. I normally just taste the bbq sauce and then set it aside, but I put this bbq sauce on every ounce of my brisket. If the sides were a little better, this would be a 5 star review. Almost, but not quite there. read more

Definitely a gem on this side of town. Friendly staff...the best banana pudding...ribs and chopped beef sandwich are my faves.

Soulmans never disappoints. Been to this one and the one in Terrel (many times). Always good and the staff are amazing. read more

Perfect in every way. Brisket is soft , unlike those other bbq chains that sell tree bark with sauce. Their sauce it rich and delicious unlike the other places (Sonny Bryan's and Dickeys) that, for some reason, make their regular sauce spicy. Why? We LOVE Soulman's BBQ!!!!!! Mac-n-cheese is excellent, and compared to Heims BBQ, there is no comparison. Heims is awful and over priced. Save yourself the time and the stomach ache, and perhaps dental work, and only go to Soulman's!!!! read more

I visited the Cedar Hill location went in to purchase 2 plates. Don was the server. He asked what did I want to purchase. I told him a Double Barrel and wanted to know what was on it? He looked at me strange (as if I should have already known) then explain meat and potato. I said okay give me that. He ask what do you want on that potato: Butter, cheese, sour cream? I said yes and no bacon. He said that's what I said butter, cheese, sour cream. He started to fix the Double Barrel and I saw that there was bacon added. I told him I will take the other plate and left the Double Barrel. I could have waited for him to fix another potato but refused to take any more of his condescending and sarcastic attitude. I will not waste my time going back. There are too many other food options. read more

Was in the area for work, stopped in on a whim. Got a two meat platter, beef and pulled pork with two sides-these southwest beans and Mac and cheese. The beef was so good! Sliced nice and thin, smoky and was extra tasty piled on the bread and dunked in their bbq sauce. Pulled pork was flavorful, but had to dig through it to avoid big fatty pieces...assuming they don't take off the extra fat in Texas bbq (no worries, I just hate it). The Mac and cheese wasn't my favorite and there beans were a bit spicy, should have gotten cole slaw instead but I'd so go back. $16.00 and took more than half to go. Very pleased! read more

2nd place I've tried in Texas and it's definitely a must try. I got the 3 meat plate with sausage, hot links, and brisket. For the sides I chose ranch house beans and spicy potatoes. Some flavorful food to say the least. read more

Soulmans Bar-B-Que - ows a tray of food - Barbeque Near Me - Dallas, Texas

The bbq at Soulman's isnt special. The meat was average, not horrible, not great. My real issue is with the sides. Now I am not a guy who usually cares about sides when it comes to BBQ, but this place specifically chose prepackaged cheap sides that seem to be an after thought to the meal. Their motto was something like we don't skimp on the meat, but I went to another BBQ the following night and got 1/3 more meat for about the same price, and it tasted better. I can see how people like this place, it has a diner feel, quick served, meat was okay, didn't have a huge smoke flavor but some people like that. Just don't come here if you want a side that you couldn't make out of a bag or box at home. read more

My new favorite BBQ Spot! The whole vibe is a spiritual experience. Nice music. Servers Taneika, Treasure & Braylon are so friendly and professional. Chicken, green beans & okra is tasty and banana pudding is incredible! Love this location over the Cedar Hill location. read more

We were driving through the area and stopped for a late lunch. Everything was very good. Reminds me of old time country cooking . Enjoyed the country music also. Do yourself a favor and stop in for a plate of BBQ. read more
