I'm always finding new spots when I travel, and this particular BBQ spot caught my interest . David Alan's BBQ in Mukwonago did not disappoint. The smoked meats were on point, juicy, flavorful, and you can tell they take their time with it. The pulled pork and sausage had that perfect smoky bite, and even the brisket in the bowl hit. The sandwiches were stacked and messy in a good way, and the sides actually showed up too, mac and cheese, coleslaw, and cornbread all solid. If you want legit BBQ with big portions and real flavor, this spot is worth it. Service was attentive, the ambiance was cool too. I definitely will return when I'm in town. read more

Had the opportunity to try their Cod fish fry. It comes with three nice sized pieces of beer batter cod and your choice of a number of different side options. We had their pig tail fries and potato pancakes. The fish was very good, not greasy, cooked perfectly. The pig tail fries were also very good. Had to have the potato pancakes recooked as the first ones were over done. The second ones were very good as was the applesauce. Rye bread is rye bread not much more to say there. Neither of us cared for their coleslaw, which is vinegar based. Overall we give it 7 out of 10. The service was handled by the bartender and she did a great job. The ambiance is sports bar/restaurant with plenty of TVs. read more

This is one of my husband's favorite restaurants, and it's easy to see why. The smoked old fashioneds are so unique and really good. The smoked meats are delicious, and the wings are super saucy and full of flavor. I ordered the BBQ salad, and the portion was huge I ended up taking leftovers home. Definitely recommend this spot! I'll be coming back to try their brunch menu next. read more

It was smash burger wednesday so we got the cowboy burger. I thought it was pretty tasty. Nice heat to it. I didn't really enjoy the onions. I think it had two different kinds but neither won me over. I'm so happy we did the special because we got delicious onion rings. I loved the crunch and the onion didn't fall out. They had the bbq sauces at each table which I thought was convenient. We also got the bbq chicken salad which was delicious and fulfilling. I just didn't like the blue cheese. It's such an acquired taste. I would definitely get it again but without it. The cheesecake with oreo mousse was to die for. It was sooo fluffy. So sweet and decadent. We loved it. Our waitress was very understanding when we needed more time to get our food. She also matched energy. I was so excited about the food she got excited. It was a great time out for us. read more

Yummm! I came on a Friday night during Lent. We got there around 5:30 and were quoted about 35 minutes. We were able to grab 2 chairs at the bar when someone left and ordered 2 Moscow mules for $14. I thought it tasted good and the price was right. About 10 minutes later they texted us that our table was ready! They had a lot of fish fry options. I personally don't like fish, but my mom ordered the cod. It came with 3 very large pieces, a choice of side, coleslaw, and bread for $20. She said it was good, but was slightly too greasy for her taste. I ordered the rib sandwich with a side of mac n cheese for $16. I loved it! There were many bbq sauce options on the table and I taste tested them all. My favorite was the Kansas City BBQ. I would definitely like to come back and try more things on the menu! read more

Everything is still good, but the ribs were inconsistent. We had 2 full racks. One was fall of the bones soft and delicious. The other was not falling off the bones and tough to chew. I had the good rack, so I left happy, but seeing that my friend didn't have an awesome time, and seeing the inconsistencies makes me dock off a star. Still an awesome joint with popping vibes. It was super crowded on a weekend evening. Servers are always friendly and ready to help. Full Rack of baby backs This is delicious. Unless you get the wrong batch as noted above. The pig tail fries are ok, but not as good as the Mac and cheese. 2 meat platter - baby backs and brisket Skip the brisket. Baby back is the way to go. Full nachos This was pretty stacked! I'd get it if I wasn't on keto. Looked delicious and with heaping portions (well, we did get the full). So what am I getting next? I'm coming back for the baby backs. Full rack. Oh yea. Cross fingers that it'll be the falling off the bones kind. read more

The food was very good. I had the street tacos and the other party had the burnt ends sandwich. The tacos are generously filled,however, the order now is two tacos instead of the original three. It was busy when we went but when I asked for a booth they were accommodating which was nice. The ambiance is typical of a smaller local establishment with good food and a variety of drinks and appetizers. The stand out in this visit was the server Sandra. She could not have been better. Her sunny demeanor, constant attention to drinks and overall good vibes is what made this visit a pleasure. Owners if you're reading these reviews give Sandra a raise. She is what made this visit a stand out read more

We were seated quickly despite the crowds. Our servers were attentive and efficient. Food was outstanding. It arrived hot and perfectly prepared. I can't remember the last time I had beer battered fish that was so crispy and delicious. Also highly recommend the brisket and corned beef. Sorry I forgot to take pictures. read more

Order from Door Dash and I'm in town for the night for work. This place had a pretty decent rating. Obviously the people leaving the ratings don't have taste buds. No, I don't wanna be too critical or harsh on these guys . I mean a lot of people cannot cook brisket that's just how it is. The brisket was really really dry. It was obviously smoked too long and they did not trim it good enough because they took all the fat off, which would have increased the moisture. The hot links were good though. Now to the sides . The fried green tomatoes were awesome. The collard greens were seasoned very well and also very good. The macaroni and cheese was also very good. The cornbread was also very good. If I had other complaints, I'm in a hotel and they did not send utensils with the order ??? They also did not send barbecue sauce of any type. Maybe it's a one time thing . My experience just was not really that good. I consider what I spent a donation. read more

Food Fantastic I have just changed my favorite BBQ to David Alan Alan's ! It has that taste of BBQ I don't n ow the spice combo. But man it is so god and they are really creative too. The bbq pizza is the best. Any BBQ they have is awesome and plentiful . Like all fav BBQs. It's a local place and I always see people accidentally meet friends and neighbors there. The drinks are good. And the tunes are deep cut rock. Never a dud at DAA read more

We loved the atmosphere of the place. We enjoyed our waiter. He was very thoughtful. And we really wanted to like the food. The presentation was beautiful, the flavor of the meats was just not there for us. We had the brisket nachos. We need the BBQ sauces to make them tasty. Now the bbq sauces were amazing and they had lots to choose from so that was a huge plus. And we had the smoky bbq chicken salad. Again it had all the right things. The chicken just had no flavor. Our drinks were good it really just was the meat lacking flavor that was disappointing. So if you want good drinks and ambiance this is the place for you. read more

First went to the location in the third ward and enjoyed it soo much we went to the Mukwonago location. Great food and drinks. We will be back read more

We went there on a Friday night for a fish fry. We are new at needing to eat gluten-free and our server, Sophia was very patient with all the questions we had. They have a very large gluten-free menu. We felt confident that they knew about cross contamination and appreciated that they have a dedicated fryer for gluten-free french fries. We will be back again to try additional gluten-free items. read more

The food is incredible and you can smell the goodness as soon as you walk in! Awesome waitstaff and fabulous drinks. Love watching the Packers games there too! read more

We just moved to Mukwonago and had to try David Alan Alan's! My husband had the meat platter with brisket and pulled pork and couldn't stop eating the yummy pork. I liked his brisket. I had the burnt ends sandwich and it was comparable to what I got in Kansas City! I especially liked that they had several different bbq sauce options on the table to fit your preferences. I enjoyed trying a bunch out! The kids meals were great and they had coloring pages for my twins. Service was good and quick and I saw lots of food and specials I'd like to try! read more

They offer a delivery. But you may or may not get. After an hour and a half i called to cancel and i was told it has been sitting here ready and i was welcome to come and pick it up. Why offer something when you cant deliver? read more

Street Tots - COLBY JACK CHEESES, OUR 6 CHEESE BLEND OF MAC AND CHEESE, SMOKED RIB MEAT, SRIRACHA DRIZZLE, AND GREEN ONIONS ON TOP OF A BED OF CRISPY TOTS. Well this is fantastic!!! We replaced the rib meat (they were out) with brisket and asked for them to remove the green onions. Both the husband and I agreed we'd come back some Friday afternoon for just these tots and some very generous happy hour beer pricing. read more

David Alan Alan's Smokehouse & Saloon - Street Tots - Smokehouse Near Me - Mukwonago, Wisconsin

This is one of our go to stops if we know we want good food and drinks in the area. We love this place, and have been here too many times to count. Their menu is every changing, with just some amazing and super original items always coming onto the menu. They're innovative with their additions, both in food and drinks. Any smoked meat you like, they probably have. Their burnt ends are just amazing. Tons of delicious appetizers, so many entrees, and wild different options to try like smokehouse ramen or a meatloaf pizza. Mukwonago is a small town, and this is definitely one of the good spots to check out if you're coming thru the area. And there's a chocolate bacon martini that's a must when we pop in too, don't forget to try that! The service is always friendly, never slow even when it's busy in there. Lots of TVs to watch sports, big sports bar/restaurant. The place is clean, and has lots of seating considering the small area they have to work with. In the summer, they have a dog friendly patio (with a dog menu even!) and it's always busy. read more

After a day trip to Milwaukee, we wanted a good hearty meal. My brother found the smokehouse and we all agreed to try it. There was bar seating, regular dining and outdoor dining as well as TVs with sports going on. It feels like a great family restaurant but also a great place to hang with friends. There were lots of great beer options, all Wisconsin based beers. The food options were amazing and very big portions. Our waitress was great and checked on us throughout the meal. They have a variety of BBQ sauces on the table for you to choose and try out. I loved the Jalapeño bbq sauce that was in the mix! We were all too stuffed to try any dessert read more

Never tried the food because we couldn't get seated. Bartender seated us then no waitress came. We just got up and left. Plus no ribs until 4. I'm out read more

Love this place, go there regularly. Great food and a pretty wide selection of choices. Great beer selection as well, friendly staff.

My friend and I eat here once a month. The food is never consistent. I recently ordered the Southern Philly Sandwich and was given a partially filled sandwich which was served on a dry sub bun. There was no cheese on it and barely any toppings. This is a $16.99 dollar sandwich and was so disappointing. I called the manager and told him how bad it was. He offered to send me a gift card. I thought that was very nice until I received the $10.00 gift card. Thank you for sending me a gift card, however this does not even cover the cost of my sandwich. I will make sure to not order it again. read more

Food, service, atmosphere cannot beat this local gem! Try anything on the menu it is the cats pajamas

Firstvtime here, the place was packed 20 min after opening. We had a party of 6. In our group we ordered biscuits and gravy, pulled pork sandwich, brisket nachos, rueben rolls, candied bacon, meat platter, and cocktails. Everyone liked there food. The brisket, slaw and fries were the highlights on the platter. read more

I noticed I gave them 3 stars oops. Should have been 4. Only because I preferrer a little less smoke and just a bit more juicy brisket but thats my opinion as many in my family love this place. Please give them a try if you haven't already. read more

Had dinner last night. Ordered the pulled pork quesadillas. I was really disappointed. They were really dry. The BBQ sauces all tasted sour. I didn't Ike any of them but normally love BBQ sauce. I also noticed spider webs in the corners of the ceiling. Overall will most likely not go back. It just didn't float my boat. read more

Gluten free available options! Awesome sauce options. Flaming bourbon drink. Kids enjoyed the mac option. Busy but fast service.

Jordan T was great, made it worth it. Best smoked meat in the area. Beer is cold and Mac and cheese is worth the extra calories

Great barbecue joint with plenty of meat and sauce options for you to choose from. They don't take reservations and get busy quickly so it's better to arrive around 5pm on weekends. I got there around 5:20pm and had to wait about 35min for a table for 3. I tried the two meat platter with baby back ribs and brisket. Both the ribs and brisket were very tender with little fatty piece like other places give. My favorite sauce was the bacon bourbon since it was a god blend of sweet and savory. They had all kinds from sweet to spicy and a Carolina style also. For drinks I had the smoked old fashioned and berry mule. The berry mule was delicious and the added cinnamon stick gave it a good spice to go with the ginger beer. The smoke old fashioned was ok, but in the end I'd prefer a regular sweet version instead. read more

David Alan Alan's Smokehouse & Saloon - Smoked Old Fashioned - Smokehouse Near Me - Mukwonago, Wisconsin

We were in Mukwonago and stopped here for lunch. The service was great. We were greeted at the door and seated promptly. Our server was friendly. I ordered the Poutine burger served on a Ciabatta roll. It's served with cole slaw and your choice of a side. I thought the beans with bacon and jalapeño cream ale looked good , but unfortunately it was not available. So I ordered the Collard greens with bacon. The burger was cooked exactly as I ordered. It had waffle fries, cheese curds and gravy on the ciabatta roll. It was a large burger, I thought the gravy could use a little pepper. The burger is a blend of sirloin, brisket and ground chuck. It had to be a third to half pound patty. The collard greens with bacon , was also a large serving. We both thought it was a little to salty. It was a large portion. The brisket was very good, it had cole slaw on it. They have a half dozen different sauces at the table. It came with your choice of sides, my wife ordered Mac n Cheese. It was a nice portion. It was very good. We look forward to going back and trying a few other things we saw on the menu. read more

A fantastic find. We were looking for a place between Milwaukee and Elkhorn to have lunch with old friends. The food was wonderful and the service outstanding. Even the restrooms had the rustic look of the entire restaurant. Found out later that they have opened at the Milwaukee Public Market and look forward to eating there as well. read more

It's about time I give David Alan Alan's a review. To begin with, I have eaten here at least 20 times. so when I give this review, this is a very thorough and comprehensive review. To start, I'm gonna say this is more of a bar/restaurant, than any restaurant. They pride themselves on having an excellent selection of beer. I have a soft spot for Todd the Axeman, and they have it ice cold and fresh as the day is long. I have eaten everything from the burgers to the ribs. My go to- I've had the nachos several times, with an array of different barbecued meats. Choose any meat, whatever you're in the mood. I have to say the nachos are a definite sleeper bargain. You can easily just eat that and be happy. The sauce selection is a good variety for everyone's taste. I prefer the Smoked Jalapeño. Again, as a customer for years, I have to say, the staff is very friendly, and the food/beer quality is dependable. The only thing I gripe about is the cleanlilness has seemed to fall off. The entrance door is dirty looking, not to mention the closer doesn't work on the main door. That's your first thing you see, when you walk in. Spiff the place up with a little elbow grease, windex, a little maintenance, and we will be back on track. Otherwise, great job in the bar and kitchen staff. Keep up the good work!! read more

David Alan Alan's Smokehouse & Saloon - Todd the Axeman never misses. - Smokehouse Near Me - Mukwonago, Wisconsin

I found myself off work on a Monday which has not happened in a long time except for vacation time so I decided to spend some time in Mukwonago and get a cocktail some lunch and hit up the elegant farmer for at least an apple pie. The place is in a strip mall with plenty of parking. With a proper full name of the restaurant on the restaurant I was expecting something upscale or fancy but it was standard wood and tin like most other bbq restaurants with a bar, booths and tables. The menu is interesting with standard bbq items and and their bbq take on other items like the smoked meat loaf sandwich or the rib sandwich which I was torn between, I really wanted a slab of ribs but you can't get them until after 4pm. I ordered the Hunch punch margarita as my cocktail as I looked over the menu and i it came in a mason jar and it was pretty good. My server was Krissy and I asked her what she like better, the smoked meat loaf dinner or the rib sandwich and she instantly said that she likes the rib sandwich so that's what I ordered with Mac and cheese as my side. The rib sandwich looked delicious and the Mac and cheese also looked delicious but the coleslaw looked pretty average. The Mac and cheese was ok with the 6 cheese blend but I expected a bolder/richer cheese flavor and the pasta was cooked to mush which was too bad. The rib sandwich was pretty good with rib meat chunks in KC bbq sauce, smoked Gouda cheese, red onions, dill pickles on a toasted bun. If you ever wanted to know what a Mc Rib sandwich would be like if a real bbq restaurant made one than you should try one because it hit the spot. Mondays special is .75 cent jumbo drummys sold in a minimum of 4 so I had to try them so I got 4 to go for dinner. WOW those are jumbo drummys which were a meal in them self and still somewhat moist because they were lightly smoked and deep fried to finish them off and meaty so Monday is the day to go and stop by. Overall like many of my bbq experiences the meats are the stars and the sides can be a little lacking but all in all I enjoyed my lunch. read more
