Dennistoun Bar-B-Que Reviews

Whilst looking up BBQ shacks in Glasgow, I stumbled on this place. Now first up, you can only make reservations if you have a party of 10 or more, if not you need to turn up and take a chance. Table turn around time is fast so you should not wait more than 15 minutes (fingers crossed). Free parking outside from 6:30pm. Looking at the menu there is a fair choice of food however it is a little burger top heavy, but as I said there is a lot of BBQ choices. The food is ordered via an online app (squared up) and is delivered canteen style on metal trays. We ordered way too much for two people, but in my defence we (a) wanted to try a bit of everything and (b) we believed that portion sizes might be small. I was so wrong! I ordered the brisket, ribs, burger with fries for myself. We also ordered more ribs, BBQ wings and Mac & Cheese. The ribs meat fell off the bone and were smoked/seasoned perfectly, same with the brisket, not only was the meat juicy and moist, but the portion size was perfect. The burger was clearly handmade and was cooked perfectly. I was told the wings were also amazing and the Mac & Cheese was great. The only comment I would say is the BBQ Wings did have a little too much sauce on them for my personal taste, that was just me personally. A couple of things, seating is a little cramped, not a big thing, but could be an issue if you were disabled or in a chair. The restaurant is styled to be a USA BBQ shack and most of the respects it pulls it off, however playing UK dance music rather than the expected music choice (blue grass country etc.). The surrounding/food did not marry with the music. Lastly it is a shame, not a criticism, that the choice of sauces available was very limited to BBQ. If some more choices from USA regions were available this would definitely add to the experience. Other than that, food was very reasonably priced and served promptly even though they were busy. Thank you for a lovely evening and great food.

Me and my friend were in the area hungry. She wanted a steak Im vegan. This place doesnt have steaks but there was nothing else with vegan menu. Place looks run down from outside. In my opinion place is overpriced. Vegan burger wasnt any better than one you get in burger king (I wish I went there to be honest) pretty small, which is extremely disappointing,doesnt even come with fries, you need to get it separately and its too much of a portion.My friend had some cured beef in a bun, she wasnt blown away. For 20 quid per person I would expect a feast of amazing flavours. Friendly and polite staff
