Dave's BBQ - Omg HUGE - Barbeque Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

When found this place on Yelp. Boy are we glad we did it's hard to find in the back of another business. But you can almost follow your nose. We got meat sampler and was massively impressed who needs sides with meat like that. My favorite was the turkey, no the brisket, wait no the pulled pork. Well I guess it's all good if you.like BBQ check this place out. read more

So it had been a while since I was here. Had a pulled pork sandwich and a new person was there making the sandwich. Q was as good as always but amount on the sandwich was a lot less than when Dave was making them!! Very disappointed! Prices aren't that great but at least the serving size was decent. read more

really good BBQ in this area. wish there was mac n cheese available for a side! the platter is perfect for 3 people.

Its the best in town...by a thousand miles!! NC style smoked pulled pork platter and sides are best around. read more

Amazing food, hot and ready, friendly staff. This will definitely be our go to spot for BBQ in the area.

Dang Dave. Why you do them like that. With the mouth watering bbq that is piled high and cooked fresh every day. I will tell you what I really enjoy coming here. Definitely a hole in the wall but it's worth it. Hidden little gem that is right off the Blvd read more

Was pleasantly surprised to get some really good brisket here! One piece was slightly dry, but it was generally moist and flavorful. My friends ate pulled pork sandwiches, which they liked. The pulled pork serving had a massive amount of pork. Got beans or the side - Just okay and the only reason for a 4 star vs 5. Staff was very friendly! read more

Went today fir the first time. Their beans are unique in a good way. Potato salad was on point. Cornbread was awesome. And brisket and pulled pork were excellent. CHECK this place out. read more

**UPDATE - As another reviewer posted, I was also messaged after my review by "Randall" who was trying to shame me into changing my review. Just FYI. OK, bear with me... Maybe it's just me, but I didn't understand what the fuss was about. (read more below) Having said that, there was a constant line out the door. As soon as one person would leave, another would walk up and take their place, so clearly people like the food. During my visit we tired a variety of items. Ribs, brisket, pulled pork, brisket beans, potato salad, coleslaw, & spicy coleslaw. The coleslaws & brisket were good and they were the only items we finished eating. --regular coleslaw had a bit of tang and sweetness. --spicy slaw did not taste spicy, but it was good. --brisket had a good smoke ring and fat cap. --ribs, had a good tooth, but the flavor was meh. --pulled pork was too mushy and had little flavor. --potato salad was bland. --brisket beans had tiny bits of brisket and sausage in them but weren't anything special. --sauces are on the tables. Spicy, sweet, vinegar based NC style, & hot sauce. Things to note: My husband said the food was too peppery for him (black pepper), however I did not find that to be the case (I like pepper). **the couple sitting next to us said the same thing about the pepper.** Overall this place was not the BBQ haven I was looking for, but I would say that this place could be worth a visit for you. As I said earlier, there was a constant line out the door so other people do really like their food. read more

Lord Jesus where do i begin I cam out to Virginia all the way from the nyc area to find some good eats and make some great memories and this place did not disappoint when I pulled into the parking lot I was confused because this place didn't seem like it was there but it was behind another business because the lord new that if this was in open view we would all be in heaven too early from eating there too much. I ordered the brisket with potato salad and the BBQ baked beans and they put the Q in BBQ I went to this place with high hopes and this surpassed my highest hopes the brisket was spoon tender forget the fork had a wonderful smoke ring and was flavored through and through the sides shouldn't even be considered sides because they can stand alone the potato salad had a wonderful creamy yet slightly tart and welcome flavor at the end the beans tasted like someone's great grandmother was in spirit cooking them and dropped some pieces of soul in there the brisket in the beans was amazing. The staff was wonderful as well they were happy to serve us. After tasting the brisket and my sides I had to order some of the smoked Turkey I heard about and oh my lord it was the best Turkey I've ever had I've never been a big fan of Turkey but man oh man that Turkey was the best thing since sliced bread if I'm ever here again I will definitely come back. read more

Absolutely fire bbq. Cheddar sausage links were top tier. Desserts were homemade and absolutely fire. Must stop when in the area

This is a tiny place tucked behind other businesses that puts out some fine BBQ from a drum smoker out back. The brisket is outstanding, the pulled pork is delectable and the smoked Italian sausage was a pleasant surprise. read more

Dave's BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Best brisket in town. Worth the price of admission. Not a fan of their sides or sauces. If they were better this place would be 5 Star.

Hands down the BEST BBQ I have ever had in Virginia!! I saw Dave's BBQ the other day on VB BLVD and also saw it on OrderUp and thought I'd give it a try, all the reviews sounded great. I order the 2 meats platter, brisket and ribs, with smoked baked beans and potato salad. I was worried with it being delivery that my food would be cold and dry when it arrived.. I was greatly surprised!! First off the food arrived hot, except the potato salad which was perfectly chilled! I was surprised how perfect this meal really was. The portions were quite generous too. The brisket was on the fatty side but hey it's flavor, I didn't mind it too much because I can cut it off and enjoy the DELICIOUS, TENDER, and JUICY meat which was perfectly smoked.. I really mean that, I've been disappointed so many times in the past with dry, tough brisket and this brisket is SUPERIOR in comparison. My sides were tasty. The smoked baked beans could be a meal by itself! Meaty, smokey and spicy, not too spicy, a perfect marriage of beans and pulled pork! Delicious!!! The potato salad had a tangy mustard flavor but also creamy. It paired nicely with all the smokey and spicy flavors of the rest of the meal. Now the RIBS.... my goodness these ribs are SO SO GOOD!!!! Perfectly tender and juicy with a beautiful, tasty bark. Holy moly they're so good, fall right off the bone! My favorite!!!! I will definitely plan to visit Dave's BBQ in the near future and be ordering again when I get that ohhh sooo desirable craving for bbq! You can rely that whether you go to the restaurant or order online that it will be delicious and worth your while! I am so happy that I finally found delicious real deal bbq in Virginia and so close to home! Dave please keep doing what you're doing! Dave's BBQ is a really special place! read more

Pretty good food! We shared two platters to get a wide variety of tastes. Brisket, ribs, pulled pork, spicy sausage, coleslaw, spicy coleslaw, potato salad, and baked beans. Everything was good. We especially liked the creamy coleslaw, potato salad, and pulled pork! read more

Put in an order for catering for a baby shower and the food and their customer service with the ordering was incredible! Dave's had the food ready and even helped load it in my car for me! Their pulled pork, spicy coleslaw and baked beans are out of this world! There is no comparison to other places. 10 out of 10 recommend! read more

A friend showed me today what BBQ should be!!! Definitely a place to go to early and I can definitely say that this place is more than a hidden gem. The brisket and pulled pork was perfect!!! Thank you Dave & Crew for being open serving your delicious bbq. read more

Excited is my first thought. As I approached the building the smell of the grill was amazing. I instantly knew I was in for a treat. Unfortunately I was only there for quarts of sides. As I was waiting they offered me a taste of the brisket. Perfect taste and texture. The smoke ring was picture perfect. I can't wait to try the full menu. Update: The beans were ridiculous. I'm usually hit or miss when it come to bbq baked beans but this one was a hit. read more

Great BBQ and super friendly service! I had the Pulled Pork, Spareribs, Smoked Beans, Cornbread, and Banana Pudding. Everything was delicious. Definitely pair the Pulled Pork with the Vinegar Sauce, and their Sweet Sauce goes well with the Spareribs. The Banana Pudding was probably the best I've ever had, no joke. read more

First of All, THANK YOU SO MUCH....for not just being on time with the food and set-up.... but you prepared all of the food for our 10th anniversary with LOVE!!! At least, it sure did taste like you were cooking with LOVE! The food was so amazing, I had to text my family members your business contact information. Everything was so delicious and perfect!!! We had more than enough food for everyone, and most of my family went home with morning after plates! You are amazing, the food was amazing, and we look forward to our next service from Dave's BBQ! Keep doing what you do, and continue to make folks' palates dance to the delicious beats of your BBQ! read more

Good God Almighty..... If you haven't been to Dave's for BBQ, you're missing out. Hands down the best barbecue in the 757. Most places here are smoking on electric.... Not Dave's and the taste is evident in the smoke flavor that is on the meat. The brisket is smoked to perfection and and the pulled pork was fantastic too. I'll be coming back and having BBQ again and again and I sincerely hope that others will as well. Dave's is a hidden treasure of Hampton Roads. read more

Dave's BBQ - Brisket. Pulled Pork. Potato salad. Corn Muffins... So good you'll want to slap your Mama. - Barbeque Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Brisket brisket brisket is all I want to say, hands down the best brisket that I have ever tasted. It was moist and tender and flavorful. Now there is more to this establishment than the brisket but I guess I loved it so much that is the main thing I wanted to focus on. This is a little mom and pop shop that offers great customer service and delicious bbq. I had as you know already the brisket but I also ordered ribs , which were very smoky and flavorful. As my sides I had the potatoe salad and corn bread, the potaoe salad was nice tasting and the corn bread was okay. I am not a corn bread fan so I not one to judge one. All in all this is a lovely place and I will be visiting again soon. read more

You must try Daves BBQ! Got the brisket, pulled chicken, baked beans, potato salad, spicy coleslaw, and corn bread muffins. The brisket was phenomenal! It was juicy, fell apart with the slightest tug and the flavor was mouth watering. The pulled chicken was amazing along with the baked beans! I've never had baked beans as flavorful as these. They were so good I had to order more to go with my left overs! What amazed me was the portions were very generous, I've never been to a restaurant that gave so much food so be prepared for a to go box. Lastly for food, you can't leave without trying the banana pudding. I'm typically not a fan of banana pudding but theirs melts in your mouth like cheesecake. Daves BBQ is a comforting place, the owners are warm and inviting. You can tell they love what they do! Daves BBQ is my go to place now for real BBQ *update* Been here about a dozen times now and still is amazing. I swear by this place! Keep up the good work Dave!!! read more

After moving to VA from Memphis there were few places I could find that could compare to the BBQ that I was accustom to. Dave's BBQ is by far the best I've had since being in VA. If you've been thinking about it, think no more and just do it. The brisket is out of this world, the spicy slaw is great too! All around a great place. This is a take out place but he does provide picnic tables outsode read more

Stopped here on a whim and so happy we did. The portions are generous and well worth the price. We got the brisket, beans, pulled port sandwich and banana pudding. The banna pudding is to die for! read more

Dave's BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

We visited Dave's Barbecue recently for lunch and it was a lot better than many of the Barbecue places around VB but not quite as good as Johnson's Barbecue on Military Highway. We found Dave's pork barbecue a little bit greasy and much prefer chopped rather than pulled pork butt meat. There was also too much bark in the finished product. I have always had mixed thoughts about leaving the fat cap on when smoking a Boston Butt and I don't in the fifty years that I have been smoking them. The ribs looked good. My own were top rated in the Taste Test contest sponsored by the Virginian Pilot several years ago and I was the only amateur entered. I got second place by one point because one voter liked them par boiled first (ugggg!). I just wish you could still get real baby back ribs at the grocery. Dave's has something most VB places don't; a well cooked piece of meat without fake smoke. read more

Great brisket, smoked just outside with oak! Fall apart tender, good smoke ring. A brisket platter with 2 sides is $12. Sold by the pound for $17. As others have noted, the sides are delicious as well. I think the baked beans are cooked with the burnt ends. 2 types of slaw: creamy or spicy. You can get chips, potato salad, or cornbread if you prefer. A little off the beaten path but worth it! Very clean inside, although seating is limited to a counter and 2 tables. Banana pudding for dessert. Pepsi products to drink. They also have pulled pork, sausage, pulled chicken, smoked chicken salad, and pork ribs. The MeatQuake sandwich is a 2 lb beast, with brisket, pulled pork and sausage. I added this one to my bookmarks! read more

We had Dave's BBQ at my baby shower and I have to say say it was hands down the best BBQ and spread I have had from any restaurant in the area!! The BBQ paired perfectly with his spicy coleslaw. We will definitely be using Dave in the future for all of our events. read more

I went hoping to get some beef ribs,but unfortunately they didn't have them today. That was the only disappointment of the day. I got the brisket with potato salad and beans. I've never had brisket so moist and tender, when I'm old and toothless i'll still be able to enjoy Dave's brisket. I dont really care for beans but I should have ordered double beans, they had so much flavor I could've ordered a baked bean sandwich.This was my first but not my last visit. P.S I was going to post pics but didnt male it out of the parking lot before the food was gone read more

Daves BBQ is hands down the best BBQ I've ever had! Had dave cater multiple events for me. So happy to see him in his own brick and mortar. Came here twice with my wife and came back with my best friend. Amazing stuff each time! Brisket is so juicy! Don't think I've ever had a complaint at any of my events. Everyone loves it and we ordered a bit of everything. Beautiful smoke rings on the ribs too! Juicy and they're huge! Have my best man coming in town soon and plan on bringing him to get the Meatquake! Can't wait to demolish it! read more

If I could hug Dave right now I would. Hands down best brisket I've found since I've moved back here from Texas and the best you're going to find in the hampton roads area! If you don't check this place out you're doing yourself a disservice. read more

This is my second time here and every time, I bring a friend! Dave and his wife are always friendly, helpful and give samples. My go to is the 2 meat platter with brisket, ribs, potato salad and cornbread. My fiance got the Meat quake and barely made it. Great flavor and portions! Mission BBQ who??? read more

Great BBQ, small hole-in-the-Wall place, just how I like them. The owner is a great guy who knows his stuff, I haven't had anything on the menu that hasn't been amazing. Don't show up near 6PM (closing time), they usually sell out. Call ahead for the beef ribs, tho, he doesn't always have them. read more
