    Corn Bread
    Summer B.

    It's a reason this place has been around for 48 years! You'll have some who say its not as good as when they first opened but honey let me tell you they are GOODT! Some will also say it's a tourist trap but I honestly believe it depends on what your looking for in your dining experience. I also don't think it's fair to compare it to any BBQ you'd find in the State of Texas. There are key differences between Dallas BBQ v Real Authentic Texas BBQ. There's a difference in meat selection, cooking methods and sauce. It's more about the experience than "pure" BBQ. The most Texas thing about this spot is the size of their portions with food and drinks being huge. Also, if your looking for complex culinary, sophisticated, and upscale, this ain't it. If your looking for quiet, nope not here. Yet it surpasses today's run of the mill standards of good quality comfort food affordably priced. I purposely did not eat anything all day just so I could enjoy all my faves such as the sticky wings, cornbread and the turkey chilli. First off you cannot come here and not order the wings! It was my friends first time dining here and when she read the menu she thought the wings were going to be those tiny rinky dink flats and drums, but no ma'am! These are nice size WHOLE WINGS. Attempting to eat all 5 of them will have your belly popping out of your shirt and have you snoring at the table! I can eat 4 on an empty stomach but 5 is a lot especially if your eating anything else or drinking. So if you want to try other menu items get them to share or just be prepared to take some home. The Hennessey wings are good but after eating two of them the flavor is a bit overwhelming to me. You will not find a better chilli than theirs!! Their chilli is so flavorful without being spicy hot. I love that I can enjoy their chilli, it's the right texture, consistency, well seasoned and you can tell its good quality ground turkey. The drinks are lit! Generous amount of alcohol. Everything is TEXAS size even if your ordering something as basic as an apple juice! lol I guarantee you will not need to ask your waiter for a refill. Trust me! One major upgrade they need to do here is to the women's bathroom. I can't speak for the men's room except that there's never a line for it. Meanwhile the line hangs outside the women's bathroom and into the walkway of the restaurant. Its just not enough stalls to accommodate guests for a restaurant this size. The midtown location is MASSIVE seating between 500-800 people across three levels. However, there's literally only about 5 or 6 stalls in the women's bathroom. That ratio is way off. Anyhoo besides that this place rocks. Solid service and good food.

    Guacamole and chips

    Stopped in here before catching a play nearby and it turned out to be a convenient spot to grab a quick bite. The space is large, with multiple floors and plenty of seating, which was a nice surprise considering how busy the Times Square area can get. Prices were reasonable for the location, which I definitely appreciated. We ordered a mix of items including chicken, ribs, shrimp, guacamole, sides, and a couple of alcoholic drinks. The food was decent overall and hit the spot before the show. Customer service was fine, though nothing particularly memorable, and the same could be said for the food. Still, the location, space, and fair pricing make it a practical option when you're in the area. Overall, it was an adequate experience. I'd stop by again when I'm nearby for the convenience and reasonable prices.

    After a long day of traveling into the city, this was a decent spot to stop for lunch before exploring the big city. It's a great option if you're unsure where to dine. I especially loved the complimentary cake pops at the end of our meal , such a nice touch! The staff and service were quick and efficient, which allowed us to eat and continue enjoying the rest of our day.

    Haven't eaten here in years. I used to love it, but not so much this time around. Maybe it was an off day ‍ The wings tasted like they were fried in old oil, and the ribs barely had any meat or sauce on them. The rotisserie chicken was decent though. Not sure if I'll order from here again.

    Dallas BBQ in Times Square is a must have when visiting NYC. You can start with any cocktail (make sure to get it Texas or Super Texas size) and you will get your money's worth. The food is super tasty, and if you're a chili lover, this is the spot to come to. This is their largest location and has other locations around NYC but the Times Square location is the best one. Because their food is so good, I think the service is not where it could be. It is a busy restaurant at a busy location but the waiters do the best they can. If you're lucky, you'll get to sit by the window on the 2nd floor and see the buildings and NYC views.

    Tough pink brisket.

    This was absolutely the WORST bbq l have ever had. This was supposed to be brisket, ribs and pulled pork. Everything was bad. The brisket was to tough and no fat had been trimmed off. The cornbread was a brick. Just awful.

    Okay Yelp! We're out the chat in NYC! Dallas Bbq I was told it was 10/10! But I'm Texas Girlie here! This place is cool! I love the location! Customer service was just ok. The best part was the person taking professional photos! The food was not good! I really wanted to like this place! It's definitely a busy location. Would I go back? Probably not! And I mean this so well! It was worth the shot!

    Regular Piña Colada
    Alexis N.

    We were in Times Square acting like tourists and decided to stop in for a late lunch. We were seated right away which was easy because this location is huge!! They have seating upstairs and downstairs which was nice. There were several large groups there but you would never notice based on how fast the food came out! Our waitress was nice. We ordered the infamous Hennessey wings which were huge. Very nice sized full wings. Me and my sister ordered a side of Cole slaw and my friend ordered the Mac and cheese which had crumbled bacon on top. Like I said, everything came out quickly and hot. The drinks were OK. $10.99 for a regular margarita was a bit much especially since the cup wasn't regular sized. All in all, it was a good dining experience at this location. Definitely check it out if you're close to Times Square and want some good food. Sidenote: I don't know if it was something special for the holidays or something they regularly do but there was a photographer walking around offering to take a free picture. At the end of the meal, they brought us our free picture in addition to some for purchase. One they manipulated into Pixar version! It was so cute and very nice. It was $20 and definitely worth it if you wanted to capture a fun moment.

    It's Valentine's weekend and my wifey wanted one of her favorite go to restaurants to celebrate our love,Dallas BBQ in Times Square. So we took the metro North down to the city and wandered across the cross roads of the world. This place is always high energy and if you're lucky enough to get a window seat you can definitely enjoy the entertainment outside. Service was swift, drinks were Fantastic especially with the extra shot of your choice, food fantastic. You can't go wrong at Dallas BBQ IN TIMES SQUARE.

    I used to eat at this location very often many years ago. Glad to see the service and food are still excellent! We had Buffalo and sticky wings and BBQ chicken and ribs. We had a pineapple drink and a Henney colada! The drinks are still so so delicious!

    This section of Midtown is almost eerily quiet on a weekday at certain time intervals. It's just one of those things you know if you know! This BBQs location is wonderful to dine-in during those times. The food and drinks are delicious, same as the other locations. The service is okay; it truly depends on how busy or empty it is when you're there. I go here solo or with friends if it's convenient.

    Angry Shrimp
    Sherry S.

    It's been a while since I've went to Dallas BBQ. I wanted to enjoy a nice drink after a long day. I met up with my friend. I ordered the Tripple D Texas size drink which had Hennessy Colada, shots of Dusse and the Dusse sidecar. The drink was very good and enjoyable. For my appetizer I ordered the Angry Shrimp. It was well prepared and delicious. The server was very helpful and attentive. The restaurant was not noisy at all as it was a Tuesday evening. For my entree, I ordered the BBQ Bacon, Cheese and Onion burger. The burger was well made and tasted great. I enjoyed my entire meal and I'll return soon. Great dinner for a great price.

    Ribs and shrimp combo
    Rose C.

    I haven't been here in over a decade so I curious to see if the quality was still good. We were a large group of 10. We were seated as soon as everyone in our party arrived. It was a friday night but it wasn't too many people inside surprisingly. Some of our orders got a little mixed up but overall everything else came out well. It did take a while before we got our food. I got the ribs and shrimp combo with a side of fries. The food was good but I feel like portion size of their food drastically decreased from how it used to be. As my drink I got the patron passion paradise. Its a passion fruit and prickly pear daiquiri with a patron shooter and a mini patron margarita. It was tasty but it honestly had a lot going on. Next time I'll probably get a simpler bulldog drink. Overall it was an okay experience.

    Had reservations for 2 on a Saturday afternoon and the place was packed. We got there about three…read moreminutes late, but they seated us within 5 minutes in a booth. It was our first time eating at a Friedman's location. It had a nice diner feel to it, with a mix of booths and tables. The brunch menu has a variety of breakfast items, salads, sandwiches and burgers, starters, and entrees (fish tacos, grain bowl, fried chicken). I like that several of the items are naturally gluten free, and some can be made gluten free by request. We decided to go with three breakfast items from the brunch menu: I got the shakshuka, my sister got the Nova Benny, and we got the lemon ricotta pancakes to share. All 3 dishes were great. The shashuka came with grilled ciabatta, perfect for dipping into the sunny side eggs and tomato sauce. My sister loved that the poached eggs and smoked salmon of the Nova Benny came on top of a crispy potato latke. The pancakes were fluffy and the lemon ricotta and lemon zest elevated their flavor. Our server was friendly and attentive, and he asked us if we had any allergies when he took our order. He came by several times to check on us and refill water. I would return to Friedman's when I'm in the Herald Square area, or check out one of their other locations in the city.

We walked into a…read morecomfortable, easygoing space that makes it a nice place to sit down for a relaxed meal, whether we were catching up with friends or just looking for a good breakfast nearby. The restaurant has a welcoming neighborhood atmosphere that fits well with their comfort-food focused menu, and the dining room stays lively without being too loud, making it easy to settle in and take our time. The food here leans classic brunch, but there are enough options that make it stand out. The chicken and waffles are a must-try, with the crispy chicken paired with the sweet waffles for a satisfying balance that hits both savory and sweet notes in one plate. The lemon ricotta pancakes are another highlight, with a lighter texture and a nice flavor that does not feel overly sweet, allowing the ricotta to add a subtle creaminess. We also liked the pastrami hash and the latke with smoked salmon and poached eggs, which bring more savory options to the menu and give the brunch spread a bit more variety beyond the usual sweet offerings. The portions are generous, and the flavors are straightforward but well executed. One thing that stood out was how many dietary options were available, especially with clearly marked gluten-free choices across the menu. It made the experience feel more accommodating without making the menu feel overly complicated or scattered. The service was friendly and attentive, and the overall experience felt comfortable from start to finish. The staff checked in at the right moments and kept the pace of the meal moving without rushing us. Friedman's is the type of place that works well when you are craving a familiar brunch meal done well. It is not trying to reinvent breakfast, but it delivers a reliable, satisfying meal with a welcoming atmosphere that makes it easy to return to. Whether you are stopping in for a quick bite or settling in for a longer catch-up session, it offers the kind of consistent, comforting experience that keeps neighborhood spots like this in regular rotation.

We got their garganelli, tagliatelle, and ravioli pastas. For dessert, the iconic tiramisu. Garganelli- This has a nice, arugula pesto sauce that has a rich garlicky finish. It's enhanced with roasted mushrooms and sharp pecorino. Tagliatelle- You get a rich pork and beef bolognese. The house made pasta is cooked to perfection. Pretty satisfying! Ravioli- This is a light, seasonal dish with pumpkin, brown butter, and sage. The sauce complements the sweet pumpkin and the brown butter adds a nuttiness. Tiramisu- This dessert was too cute to eat! It was decorated with a meek looking model of their namesake lamb. Nobody wanted to ruin its face so we slowly ate this from the outside in.

I appreciated the char going down the stem as well but think it could have been cooked for a bit longer to make the stems less snappy in texture
