The food is excellent! The Creole Deviled Eggs are a must have! The Prime Brisket is the BEST I have ever had!

Wings are great. Which they should be being in Buffalo NY. Dino Poutine very good. Very good barbecue. Staff is very friendly.

I order the half chicken and Mac n cheese. The chicken was not fully cooked and they forgot an order of Mac n cheese. Nice place from the outside and inside but besides having to cook my food again when I got home because I didn't want to drive another 20 mins there and back, I will say the experience could have been better my first time there. I'll try again another time.

The food was good, and the place had a good vibe. It would be a place I go back to again for sure.

I had the Brisket and it was pretty good. Very friendly staff. I will be dropping by again for more BBQ.

Wish it was a little easier to figure out the parking situation for people who are from out of town. But the food and service were great.

My wife and I stoped in for a late lunch about 2oclock. We split an assortment plate that consisted of pulled pork.brisket. Half chicken. Baked beans. French fries. And corn bread. Everything was delicious and made it to the table quickly the waitress was very pleasant and the beer was the perfect thing to pair with such a delicious meal. I would recommend this place for anybody looking for a fun spot downtown Buffalo.

Delicious food, including incredibly tender ribs and pulled pork. Waitress was delightful in personality and attentive in service.

Our first time at this location, and we loved it. Food & service were great, and we got to sit at a covered outdoor table with the most awesome heater overhead.

Honestly my favorite thing about this place is the portions. So often you go to a good BBQ place, drop a pretty penny, and get small sandwich and a side. But here your drop, well still a pretty penny, but you get your money's worth. The food was pretty good too, and the sides didn't slack off either, even the dessert was good. Add in a good beer selection and friendly staff and this place is definitely worth stopping by.

Excellent BBQ. Was very satisfied with portions and drinks. The drinks were just right so you could enjoy the flavor. Good atmosphere and does well with COVID19 restrictions.
29 October 2021 20:32
Love this place so much that when i saw they sell their sauces at tops i got a few bottles, everything is great but their pulled pork is the best ive had and same with their spicy bbq sauce.this is my favoriteeee bbq place in wny

Food was amazing. Little spicy for those who can’t handle it but all in all was great! Atmosphere was 10/10. Huge portions great prices! Corn bread was delicious too! Even kids meals were insane! Yes you pay to park but the lot is right next to the restaurant so don’t let that intimidate you. We are from Ohio and came to see Niagara Falls and so thankful we drove to Buffalo for dinner! Kiddos to staff! Hard to find an overall great dining experience anymore!

My wife liked the ribs. I had the 2 meat, ribs and brisket. I found the brisket a little dry and the ribs not quite tender. The BBQ beef fried rice and the Harlem Potato Salad were both a hit for us. I've bern to Syracuse and Rochester. BTW, I truly hope they bring back the sausage and onion soup someday!
18 October 2021 7:29
I live in a southern state, but was amazed by how great the brisket was. 12/10. Service was so-so, but food and drinks were incredible.
14 October 2021 22:48
Kate was great. Food was really good. Portions are decent size. I will be back if I am ever in Buffalo. Brisket and mac and cheese are the highlight. Beer list needs some work.
13 October 2021 7:19
My families favorite restaurant and we probably go there too much. Drinks are tasty and the food is delicious. I have yet to try something on the menu I didn't love. The kids portions are huge for the small price. My wife absolutely loves the fried green tomatoes and the mr crisp chicken sandwich. I love the brisket and the new cheddar jalapeno sausage. Their Mac n cheese is low key the best in the state, even our 1 and 3 year Olds devour it.

I'm from Virginia and had low expectations for BBQ in Buffalo, but was pleasantly surprised. Beef brisket sandwich had generous amount of tender, flavorful brisket. Nice selection of tasty.sides. We had greens, mac and cheese, and Cole slaw, all very good.
05 October 2021 22:41
Great pulled pork sandwich! Plus our server was great I would give five stars, but they didn't have green beans just really vinegary simmered greens
27 September 2021 14:56
Stopped in for lunch with our family of 5 on our way back across I-90. Service was exceptional (12/10) and the food was beyond expectations, also 12/10! Shared the wings, brisket and several sides. Best BBQ and wings the family has ever had. We will definitely make the trek over to Buffalo when we are back in the area next summer. Highly recommend.
26 September 2021 22:36
One word. Awesome! Big shout out to Chooch and Shane and the team for making out visit a memorable experience. The rib, chicken, Brisket combo was delightful. Even the fries were fresh cut and crispy. Great game atmosphere for the Buffalo Bill's game also. Overall great time. I highly recommend this be a stop if you are in the Buffalo area.
25 September 2021 10:13
This tasted like a home cooked BBQ meal! The brisket was one of the best I've ever had. We ordered a family meal for 5 of us and we still had leftovers. All of the sides were really tasty too! Definitely want to come back next time we're in the area!
21 September 2021 20:02
My wife and I visited while on a weekend getaway. Some of the best BBQ I have ever had. We both had the pulled pork cheese steak. Their pork was perfectly tender, moist, and flavorful, and not fatty like I've had at too many other places. Their sauce was outstanding and the pickled jalapenos really put it over the top. Our server, Colleen, was great and made some excellent suggestions. The next time we're in Buffalo, we'll definitely be back!
17 September 2021 7:38
Fantastic BBQ, kitchen pays attention to details and front of house staff are great! Table outside with our dog was perfect.
15 September 2021 23:22
I’ve been to Dinosaur in Syracuse (the original), Rochester, and Buffalo. All are amazing (although I wish Buffalo had Mac Salad like Syracuse does). The food does not disappoint. The atmosphere is unique. The tap selection is wide. Try the BBS sandwich - you won’t be disappointed!
15 September 2021 16:46
The BRISKET, CORN, and MAC AND CHEESE was delicious. The BRISKET had a perfect pink smoke ring around it
The SLIDERS were ok. The BRISKET was entirely too thick for the little buns. CHOPPED BRISKET or thinly SLICED BRISKET would have been a better compliment. This was an extremely busy night and one of the few restaurants open downtown Buffalo, NY. They accommodated a last minute 9pm reservation and cleared a table for us. They get for CUSTOMER SERVICE.
11 September 2021 8:28
The ambiance was so cool.did you know the building was used by universal studios to store stuff? Cool history! Felt like I was in the south. Star of the show was the pork and cornbread. I personally wasn't a fan of the mac and cheese, but that is only my opinion. Would definitely head back again.
09 September 2021 16:12
BEST BBQ!? Nothing else compares. If you're in town, don't fool around and get down to BBQ flavor town. The brisket, ribs and chicken and every side we had were delicious. You'll thank me later, trust me!
08 September 2021 6:36
When we arrived, 2 hours before close, they told us it would be a 30-45 minute wait. Before it was our time to eat we noticed people complaining as they exited. We asked what had happened and they responded the restaurant ran out of food. We then went to check on our reservation and the host confirmed the restaurant had no more entrees and only had minimal sides to offer. They could not promise us any food by the time we sat down to eat. The place was packed. I hear the food is really good but I guess I'll never know.
07 September 2021 2:20
Food was actually great service was pretty quick and also very polite, prices are reasonable. Bad part is no parking, and the place inside is a dump. I don't mean they're old wood reclaimed barn look. I mean the tables weren't wiped down. The floor was extremely sticky. The dining area smelled moldy and just nasty. My silver wear had food stuck to the fork. Not water stains or blemishes no I mean actual food stuck to it. Will likely never be back. Sad part is they do have great food at even better prices and the server was awesome.
05 September 2021 15:40
If you can find a better joint that serves the best of the best I would love to hear about it. Otherwise this is it. Get the AK Chili. And get a combo plate. You will never be disappointed.
03 September 2021 9:42
Had lunch here today I have to tell you I’m impressed with the amazing staff and the food was so good Sara had pulled pork and fresh cut fries it was excellent and for me the pulled pork philly cheese steak style and potato salad and AK chili it was to much to eat but I couldn’t stop I would highly recommend you get downtown and try some for yourself!

Meranda our waitress was great girl is working and about to drop her baby soon Goals wish her all the best for her and her new son and oh yeah the food was good
02 September 2021 1:18
Came here for dinner for date night. The food was delicious. My go to spot for food if I want to do take-out, especially the smoked wings. Will be going back very soon.
31 August 2021 11:10
Was really good food but the cashier cashing me out was not to friendly but didnt stop me from tasting ribs chicken and brisket very good
29 August 2021 15:55
Best food in Buffalo! I came to Buffalo for Buffalo wings of course, I was disappointed when I got here and the food has been horrible. I happened to come across Dinosaur BBQ and they were open on the 4th of July which is amazing because nothing else was open except a few others.
We were greeted by our server Michelle who was so helpful and pleasant. I asked her what was good and she replied that everything is amazing and that it’s all made in house. I was in shock that it was all made from scratch. I was hesitant when she said that everything was good. I decided to order pulled pork sandwich with bbq beans and my boyfriend got a cheeseburger with mashed potatoes and gravy. I’m not lying when I say, THIS IS THE BEST FOOD! The cheeseburger didn’t need any condiments. I one who had to dip everything in ranch. The burger was so good it didn’t need anything. We are from Florida and it was the best burger I’ve had in a long time. The bbq was also the best I’ve had. Bbq beans and mashed potatoes were excellent. Afterwards since everything was so good, we had to try the Mac and cheese yumm you gotta try it. 10/10 definitely recommend and ask for Michelle to be your server! You won’t regret it!
26 August 2021 1:14
Food was great, the meat sampler & mac & cheese were outstanding! Michelle the bartender was great & a huge help w/ local info! Highly recommend this place if you like good bbq!
22 August 2021 20:00
Dinosaur BBQ is the best BBQ place in the east coast. It rivals the best BBQ in the more traditional BBQ parts of the country.
21 August 2021 5:00
The ribs melted in my mouth, the taste was the best I've found so far, the side, Mac and cheese was so much better than the box I cook at home!
19 August 2021 19:52
The staff was so professional and friendly. I had pulled pork and I tried Ribs. Both tasted so well and the portion of the food was adequate! This was the best food I tried in Buffalo!
18 August 2021 17:21
The food is wonderful, The lady that serves me and my family was super nice to talk to.
Sadly I didn't take any pictures.
13 August 2021 8:26
I got ripped off. I never learn to open bags and check the food. I was charged for a item I requested and it wasn't included with the order.
12 August 2021 4:58
Please go eat here! It's so awesome! The ONLY drawback I could find to this place was paying for parking! Our server, Tom, was so funny and a great personality. Being from the south, we were wondering if they would have sweet tea-they did! Everything here is made from scratch and -wow! You can certainly tell it! The full rack of ribs, Bacon deluxe sandwich, and OG chicken breast sandwiches all with handmade french fries, Harlem potato salad, and cajun corn is what we had. Please bring this restaurant to NC!
31 July 2021 18:05
The food is awesome even the sides are good will recommend

6/23/2021
The food is excellent but count your bones when you get a quarter or a half or a full a quarter is only three bones a half of six and I assume the full is 12 I assume the full order is 12 Bones don't get me wrong the food is excellent I mean the sides is slamming well recommend anybody and I will be back packaging of the food for take out is excellent

Food was great and Miranda provided amazing service! Made me feel welcomed and didn’t rush the process. I love Spice and she ensured I had sufficient sauce for my take home food.
