I came in here to pick up a to go order for a coworker and had no intention of ordering anything for myself. I walked in and the smell of the smoked meats took over. I ended up ordering a sliced brisket sandwich and fried okra The Sliced brisket sandwich was moist and tender. Great smoke without being overpowering. The fried okra was outstanding. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend stopping in for a great lunch experience. read more

I thought Sammy's was alright. It just didn't seem to be my style of bbq and the potato casserole was room temperature and dry. The service was fast and friendly, but overall I think this style of bbq isn't for me. read more

Sammys catered our Firm luncheon today - and the food was amazing. Everyone was very complimentary on food, especially the baked potato casserole - What sets Sammys apart is the service - you could not find better service in Dallas - it is simply amazing. read more

Not very friendly. The BBQ is below average. I believe maybe it's for Canadians. Very pricey! Someone needs to remodel and a new chef needs to take over. read more

Sammy's Bar-B-Q - Two 2 Meat Plate with 1 Side and a Soft Drink Look at the ribs... - Barbeque Near Me - Dallas, Texas

You gotta love a place that puts the Gonzales Flag on its takeaway cups. But Sammy's also has a great room (albeit with odd temperature zones), good eats and friendly workers who checked on us repeatedly while we lingered for hours. Good prices, I suppose (cheaper than where I'm from, if not inexpensive). The brisket and jalapeño sausage were quite good, the pork loin was fine and the sauce was not really that exciting (sweeter and less piquant than I prefer). The sides I had (mac and cheese and potato casserole) looked a lot better than they actually were. Portions were generous for the price. Certainly not the ridiculous crowds one sees at some places on a Saturday. I'd certainly return and I'd bring others (I could go for more of that brisket right now, the next morning). Looking forward to doing so on my next trip to the neighborhood, in fact. read more

Worst barbecue I've ever had in my life. No meat, straight fat. The food looks like it had been sitting there for days.

it's usually decent but today(03/06/26) it was terrible. The okra was cooked way too long and tasted like someone forgot to stop the salt. The brisket tasted like oven brisket. it will be awhile before I go back especially after spending $50. read more

Triple OG Dallas spot. And you get to hang out next to the federal reserve! 10/10 lunch every time

Went here for lunch with a co-worker. The place has a super chill vibe with indoor/outdoor seating. The staff was very friendly and ordering was quick and easy cafeteria style. They have the basic meats and a good variety of sides. I had the brisket which was done well enough (no puns here). I did need sauce with it as it was on the dry side. I really really enjoyed my sides though. The Zucchini casserole in particular was yummy. It's a good spot for a casual meal. read more

We went around 1:30 on Friday afternoon for lunch. That probably says most if we're talking about the brisket that was left on the day. The brisket wasn't the most flavorful and a little more fatty than I'd liked, but there has to be some fat for the flavor. They also didn't have fried okra, which I heard was a go-to for sides. I had the brisket plate with zucchini casserole. Think of stuffing mixed with steamed zucchini. For not being a zucchini fan, I was surprised at the taste and consistency. Thick and filling as you'd expect, I recommend! The service was speedy and although I asked for someone lean to the brisket, it was more fatty. The place would be a great venue for happy hour if there was an additional bar, but it looks like the offer music at certain points in time during the week.

My review is for food only. I did not visit the restaurant, my order was picked up and delivered to me. The ribs yuck! They taste like they were boiled then put on the grill (maybe), and they were dry and old! The sausage didn't appear to have stayed on the grill for very long (sort of like it was warmed) but it at least tasted pretty good! Of the three meats I tasted, the chopped brisket was the best, but because the sauce is so greasy, I didn't really enjoy that either! The sides were the best thing they have going at Sammy's. Onion rings (even after traveling from the restaurant to the office, they were great and Aunt Glenda's potato casserole was good. Overall, nothing about this restaurant speaks to authentic Texas bbq, except the sides and the decor that I saw online! read more

Love this place! I always order moist brisket, German sausage, fried okra (OMG, the best!!!!), and salad. Very busy place, but the line moves fast. I highly recommend it. The guy at the register (maybe owner) is incredibly friendly and always genuinely thanks you for your business. No need to go anywhere else. Quality, taste, cost, and customer service never disappoint! read more

Barbecue was great. Okra very good. Onion rings to die for. Prices reasonable very nice people running it

Delicious Bbq, with red rings on the tasty, juicy brisket and ribs. Friendly staff with great explanation of the food. Loved it !

Loved Sammy's BBQ! I knew coming to Dallas I'd be getting some good Barbeque, but Sammy's was better than expected! The portion sizes here are huge and at a manageable price point. I ordered the brisket sandwich with zucchini casserole as my side. Wow, the brisket was super tender and flavorful, but I loved, loved, loved every single bite of that casserole. I could hardly believe I was eating zucchini! The hot pepper bar offers as many jalapeño peppers and pickled veggies as you can eat! I also really loved that the drink cups were a souvenir. I'll fondly remember my time at Sammy's thanks to the cup. Oh and the staff were as nice as can be! Not only generous with their portioning when serving, but genuinely excited to have my enjoy my meal. Free outdoor Parking right outside of the restaurant:) read more

Disappointed every time I have been there . BBQ is bland and small chinchy portions . Girls are pretty but snobby . The girls are their " main attraction ".. Went to Panther City BBQ and there was no comparison , Chopped sandwich at both places are $12 , BUT the Panther City sandwiches are TWICE the size and TWICE as good ... If you want to see pretty girls , go to a beauty pageant , if you want the best BBQ in town go to Panther City BBQ. read more

Great food! Super tender flavorful brisket. My ribs were fall off the bone. And this is my first time saying this when referring to chicken breast, but I thought it was the star of the show. The staff were absolutely friendly and welcoming to my large loud family. I will be back. Gladly. read more

Sammy's Bar-B-Q - I had my fill...and then some. - Barbeque Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I happened to get stuck in Dallas on a long layover and decided I wanted to leave the airport for some authentic Texas BBQ, and this place was all that and more. Not only was the food great, price wasn't too bad, and the restaurant had this great Texas vibe that I love. They even had Topo Chicos In the drink fridge!! And to top it all off, all the staff were extremely friendly, the owner even helped show me how picking up food works as he could see it was my first time. Next time I'm stuck in Dallas, I'll definitely be stopping here again! read more

Sammy's catered our wedding eve dinner for family and friends in our home. Manny arrived with prepared food, serving dishes, plates, utensils, ice - EVERYTHING - and also served. As the bride and groom-to-be, we didn't have to turn on the oven, open the fridge, or wash a dish. He helped us make everyone feel so welcome and helped keep their glasses full. The crowd loved the brisket, turkey, mac & cheese, and spinach salad so much there were just a few bites left. And I almost missed the amazing peach cobbler. It was such a relief to trust dinner to Sammy's - I highly recommend them to feed any crowd that appreciates good Texas BBQ! Since we didn't have the leftovers we hoped for, we went to Sammy's for a delicious chopped brisket sandwich lunch after the weekend's festivities. read more

Some tasty brisket and plenty of sides. I had a chopped brisket sandwich, caesar salad and potato casserole. Some barbecue places serve their chopped beef already mixed with the sauce so you have no options to toggle the strength of the sauce to meat ratio. Here they don't pre mix it and you get to take control of life again! Don't forget to order a drink so you can take your souvenir cup home - I love those things. We sat outside and enjoyed the music for lunch. I should have gotten a dessert- I'll be back! read more

I love Sammy's. Very consistent restaurant. Love sitting outside feels like a garden in the city. Food quality is great. My favorite are the brisket. Fried okra and corn. Staff is exceptional always friendly and helpful. Can't got wrong with lunch at Sammy's read more

BBQ Brisket was to die for, people are genuinely nice. This was our first time here they took the time to explain the menu. More importantly once we were seated they came by 3-4 times to see how things were going and how we like the food. With all the labor shortages especially in the hospitality industry congratulations to this ownership team for providing top notch service. Next trip will be back! read more

Today while at lunch with a colleague, a cashier weirdly overcharged me for a sliced brisket sandwich meal (which includes 2 sides), however I only purchased sandwich and a bag of chips. The additional side was a cob of corn..bringing the total to $17.50. A sliced beef sandwich and chips are less than this per the menu and my experience. However, while eating lunch I noticed the cashier nervously eating a cob of corn :) We also made eye contact several times. Not a huge deal, and I am unable to prove it, but I thought the cashier should know - You're not that slick! Hope you enjoyed it :) read more

I feel like this place was looking forward to ending their lunch run and preparing for dinner. The meat tasted a little dry and pretty old. The sides were not up to par either. I would say the French fries were the only item that was enjoyable which doesn't seem like it should in a BBQ joint. read more

Que puedo desir bbq just geting better fast efficient adorable price if you know about good BBQ this is one of them

Ate here a couple times, very good, everything was delicious, nicely decorated inside

Very disappointed.... I was expecting a phenomenal bbq meal. The brunette was dry or at the least bit very moist. The ribs weren't fall off the bone and had very little meat to bone ratio. I judge my bbq on if you can eat it without sauce and this bbq requires the bbq sauce they serve not only to add a needed flavor but to and some moisture too it. If that was low fat brisket te you need to tell your customers because it was not a good meal. I won't be visiting again especially when Dickeys BBQ is just as bad for way less money. read more

I was a lil disappointed as Texas is supposed to be big on BBQ, etc. I did come on a Monday afternoon just as they were about to close...so maybe that's why my exp was not grand. Portions were on the smaller side for a $18 two meat plate. 4 ribs and 4 thin slices of brisket. The baked potatoe cheese casserole specialty was cold and had no flavor. I've had tastier Coleslaw at Kentucky fried chicken! Meat was ok flavor wise...but not Texas special as I was psyched up for. I'll try another spot, probably won't be back here... read more

As always great brisket and sides. Can't go wrong with this Dallas BBQ spot for a quick business lunch or to meet up with a group.

God I love this place! Today I stopped in to pick up a quick order to go and I was blown away! Now, I've been to this place many times over the years but NEVER have I had the type of reaction that I had today. They had a sign posted that they were featuring "borracho brisket" so I ordered a $6 sliced beef sandwich with the "special" brisket. I actually MOANED (moaned I tell you!), when I took my first bite of this sandwich. Wow!!! I'm not exaggerating - this brisket was incredible! The BBQ here has always been good, but not this good! The meat was sliced thick and piled high on my bun and it was so tender it practically melted in my mouth! The bark on the outer edges was nice and dark and it had just the right amount of fat to make it juicy and not dry (like I've had in the past). This brisket was just as good as anything I've tried at The Slow Bone or Pecan Lodge. I just can't use enough adjectives to describe how incredible it tasted. I waited until I got to work to eat it and one of my co-workers walked by and said, "Mmmmm, that smells so good!" as I had bbq sauce & grease smeared all over my face! But I didn't ker! Also ordered a side order of their fried okra. It's the best around in my opinion! If you go here and they're featuring the burracho brisket, you won't regret trying it! read more

Sammy's Bar-B-Q - Great lunch spot! - Barbeque Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Great bbq. I've probably passed this place for years before I knew it was here. **It's only open for lunch** It can get busy so I recommend getting before 12 to miss some of the crowd. It's cafeteria style ordering! You order you meats and sides in line and pay at the end. The brisket and okra are both very tasty. If you get a. Drink, it comes with a reusable cup. read more

Best bbq in Dallas, love the food, service~~~ Family ran, definitely Dallas locals favorite!!! read more

Really enjoyed the food here and was a nice welcome for my first time in Dallas. I got the chopped brisket and the ribs for the two meat platter with cole slaw and fried okra. The ribs were tender and the Smokey meat fell right off the bone. The brisket soaked in the bbq sauce I asked for and was the first thing I devoured. Also enjoyed the pickle bar, added pickles and onions went well with the meal. I ate the whole thing, to the owner/manager's delight and surprise. For $15 bucks it was a heck of a deal, it was the only meal I ate that day! I went right at 11am and it was a popular spot! By 1130 it had started to fill up, I can only imagine that by noon it must be packed. read more

This is the 2nd year that I ordered my holiday meal well in advance just to call and find out they would not have my order because they were out of ribs! They ruined my Christmas meal last year. I decided to give them another chance this year for Thanksgiving. Now I have to figure out what to do so that we have Thanksgiving dinner. Uuuggghhhh!!! My suggestion is to never depend on them for the holiday! read more

Good location. Barbecue is fantastic. The atmosphere is nice with enough TV monitors to keep you with whatever is going on in the sports world that day. Nice inside and outside eating area. I always get the three meat plate with brisket, ribs, and sausage. read more

Sammy's BBQ is on another level! If I could give 6 stars, I would! Heaps of bbq and some of the best sides in town. Be sure to get the pecan pie for dessert.
