First time here. I can see why this place is always busy. This place combines delicious barbecue items with good country music & a family atmosphere. I had the Chopped BBQ salad, which was very good & I chose Chipotle Ranch for my dressing. A good kick with delicious flavor & perfect on any salad. The salad is huge & very good! The service here is good & the staff is super friendly. There is seating indoors & outdoors. There are heaters outdoors for cool nights & a dance floor to get your boot scootin' boogie on. The ONLY drawback is this place fills up fast & the parking is scarce.

We stopped by because we could hear the live music from our Airbnb. Outdoor area was nice- there were picnic tables, seats near fire pits, and a bar type seating. Inside was typical restaurant. We didn't eat there, but our kids did night before and said food was good.

Loved the outdoor seating--plenty of space, beautiful mountain views, and live music that really adds to the experience. The atmosphere is definitely the highlight and makes this a great spot to hang out, especially on a nice day. The food, though, was just okay and came out cold. Compared to our personal favorite BBQ spots in Phoenix, it didn't quite hit the same. That said, dining options are limited out this way, and when you stack it up against what else is available nearby, this place is one of the better choices. Be prepared: it fills up fast and the lines can get very long, so getting there early is a must.

Parking is what sets the immediate impression of a location, and this location has a parking lot with impressive views of the Superstition Mountains. No issues parking on a Saturday afternoon. I knew it had great views and decent parking as this location was the previous town favorite - Filly's. I hadn't been to Filly's in decades as I wasn't a fan of the food personally, so I was excited to try a new concept here. Especially since I read MasterChef Champion Chef Shaun led this kitchen as he was one of my favorite contestants through the seasons as he had a drive and passion for the art of food. When you enter, it is an order at a counter and take a number type of restaurant concept. Definitely prefer a traditional restaurant, but I know with barbecue, this is a common way to serve. A perk of this style is the ability to refill your soda without waiting for a server to do so. Since it is this style, they have condiments, pickles, and other items as a serve yourself with bottles you can take to your seat or to-go containers. Like any new establishment I try, I have to do a flight of all the sauces to rank. Four Sauce Choices: - Dutchman's Original (favorite) - Dutchman's Gold (third, but not a gold BBQ sauce fan) - Superstition Red (least - watery) - S&S Chipotle (second) Sometimes you can't beat the original, but it's always nice to have choices! For the meat options, I got the JW's meat sampler plate ($30) so we can try the different meats with sides with my boyfriend getting a pulled pork sandwich. Who gets turkey at a BBQ? Well, I would absolutely here as it's the best turkey breast I've ever had! It was so moist and had a great flavor, and the brisket was also fantastic! I rarely eat pork, but tried the other items. Loved the hatch chile & jack cheese sausage, which was a surprise as well! The ribs were fall-off-the-bone type, which I love but my boyfriend prefers something to gnaw on. Since I'm always right, they are phenomenal here. ;-) For sides, we tried Arizona Elote, BBQ Baked Beans, and Jalapeño + Chipotle Gouda Mac. BBQ Baked Beans were more like ranch-style beans, which I wasn't a fan of and would skip when returning. The Mac was pretty good, but not a creamy Mac n Cheese if that's what you prefer. The elote is more like elote en vaso, but still had a great flavor. We both did say we'd love it on the cob. They have sinks if you get messy, so a real elote would be fantastic at the table in my opinion. Lastly, my plate came with the cornbread which I wasn't a huge fan of. I'm usually a honey cornbread person, but it appears they added jalapeño which I don't like mixing in a cornbread personally. In contrast, my boyfriend thought it was too sweet for a jalapeño cornbread. Perhaps since this location is new, they are experimenting on "the" cornbread recipe, so I'd try again. Overall, both the meat items and the side dishes were a success! I would say 4.5/5 Stars, so with the stunning Superstition Mountains, Dutchman's Country BBQ gets a 5-Star Yelp review in my book! Check them out when you are in the area!

Not bad for a casual bbq place. This was the closet bbq restaurant to our stay at the El Paseo for a wedding. We got the JW's meat sampler, hatch & Gouda Mac n cheese, corn bread, Arizona Elote, Green Apple & poblano coleslaw, smoked brisket chili. The brisket was a bit dry. The turkey breast and sausage were juicy and tender. The ribs were very caramelized and dark, but not fall off the bone tender. Pulled pork was ok. The sides were all good. The coleslaw was a bit bland and not sweet at all. The chili came out hot and cheesy. Mac and cheese and elote were creamy. Fast service.

One Star??? If I was to base this review on my first encounter with the first person - whom was a much older lady taking the orders, I think her name was Tara, I would definitely give this place a one star. I'm not sure what her rush was to get me and my friend to order, as we were the only two people in line and the restaurant was 98% empty, as you'll see in the pictures. I was SOOOO disappointed even after telling her it was our first time, the lady didn't even allow us to put in our information at the end of the transaction for the Rewards program or an email list or anything that they have???!!! I still don't know anything about it because she didn't give us a chance. I thought it would've been nice to know of new menu items since they have a limited menu??? The information portion just popped on the screen and the lady quickly skipped over it. They should REALLY consider another person to be the face of Customer Service --- CS skills are really much needed! I think her behavior was really strange, off-putting, she was so preoccupied looking around, it was inconsiderate, rude and weird. We ended up sitting in the bar and luckily the cornbread was the first thing I tried and it was deliciously moist with a light crust top of honey. I tried the pulled pork sandwich and was not disappointed, it had so much moisture. The portion was really nice. The sandwich overall was definitely a five and the coleslaw placed on-top was also a five; highly recommend that!!! The side of macaroni was ok - slightly spicy, with a thin cheese sauce, although I prefer a cheesy, thicker sauce myself, with a pasta less overcooked. Here's a tip ~ be sure to grab some napkins and put water on them cause I didn't see any wet naps anywhere. Sauces: Superstition Red - A sweet-and-sour sauce type very watery, but had a mild flavor, not spicy. S & S Chipotle - sauce is definitely on the spicier side. I did really like it. Very tasty. The Dutchman's gold sauce, tangy kind of a vinegar based, savory, my favorite. Dutchman's Original - a traditional bbq, not overly sweetened! Barbie (pictured) was in the spacious bar and she was so nice to visit our table. We had a quick chat she mentioned about live music they host. Eddy (girl) was also very friendly to visit our table and took care of us. The pecan pie was extremely sugary and very hard. The buttercream whipped topping was melted, but the pie was cold so that was a little confusing, of course I wanted it to look like the picture, but it clearly did not. Tip ~ If you don't like the taste of butter on your pie then I would definitely skip that. I love pecan pie myself, therefore wanting to try it, I'm not sure why the topping was melted and the pie was so hard? Sadly, I'm guessing they were both very old, definitely Not fresh. Sharing of course My Friend was most definitely not a fan. There's plenty of space, much of the restaurant was empty and the decor is very pretty and rustic! There's a huge outside sitting area with very warm heaters and fire!!! I'm not sure why I tipped, hopefully it goes to Eddy (she served our table) and NOT the front counter older lady taking orders. I spent $31.

Great barbecue and lots of options on the menu. Big portions for a reasonable price! Will be coming here again.

We've been to Dutchman's several times now, and the food is outstanding! It is excellent BBQ, from the pulled pork sandwich to the brisket, to the chicken tenders for our son. The variety of sauces is great, including the Dutchman's Gold for pork! The amount of food for the price is a good value. You can get cheaper food, but it's just cheaper food. We will definitely keep going back, it's that good! And the view of the Superstition Mountains is the best!

We loved this barbecue spot! We ordered the tacos and the brisket sandwich, and everything we tried was full of amazing flavor. All of the homemade barbecue sauces inside were incredible and really made the meal. If you go, try to time it around sunset and sit on the patio -- the view of the Superstition Mountains is absolutely beautiful and makes the whole experience even better. The staff was very friendly, attentive, and kept the place clean, which we really appreciated. The only downside for us was the cheesy potato side. It was a bit mushy and lacked flavor compared to everything else. We also would've loved more fried jalapeños on the sandwich and a little more meat on the tacos. That said, the flavor, pairings, and overall quality of what we did get were fantastic. Overall, definitely worth visiting. Great food, great atmosphere, and an unforgettable view!

We were really excited to try this place after watching the construction and waiting for it to open. The building itself is beautiful, and the views are amazing, they clearly put a lot of thought into the space. Unfortunately, the food was a major letdown. When they first opened it looks like they had some BBQ combo plates, however, the menu has changed to more a la carte. The portions were shockingly small, so small that we honestly thought our order had been made incorrectly at first. For a BBQ restaurant, the portion size just didn't come close to matching the price. It was disappointing. The brisket was 2 small slices, sides were each less than a 1/2 cup each, soda machines were all out of ice and the condiment bar was almost empty. We truly don't want to see a new business in this area struggle or fail, and we hope they're able to improve because the location and concept have so much potential. That said, we simply can't justify paying those prices for that amount of food. We left hungry and ended up down the street at another BBQ that has huge portions but limited seating (iykyk). We really hope they take feedback like this seriously and make adjustments, we'd love a reason to come back.

We were bicycling through the area and stopped in. Nice patio out back. We ordered inside and they brought it out to us. I enjoyed the candied pork belly. The brisket tacos were really different but very tasty. I had a local brew to make it even better.
