Recent trip to Glasgow I was hankering for some proper BBQ food, apparently that's a bit of an ask. Luckily, Dennistoun came to the rescue. I read some of the reviews and one said the place looked run down and you didn't get much for the price. My counter argument is the place has character, yeah it looks old but there's such a great atmosphere as a result. Portion wise, I paid £12 for a Brisket Bun which was a substantial tower of meat, more chips than you'd get at most places that do an extra large. Taste wise, it was absolutely superb. I don't normally get over the top with stuff like this but this was a top 3 BBQ spot for me including one I visited in Texas. You can tell there is a real passion in the food. I had both the Mustard Dip and the BBQ sauce with the pulled pork, both were amazing. The mustard dip was similar to a Louisiana BBQ mustard that Reds used to sell but stopped doing for some reason and the BBQ one was up there with Sweet Baby Rays. Essentially if you're in Glasgow and you're partial to BBQ food, do yourself a favour and visit. Parking is on street but there are generally a good few spaces.  Ordered : Beef Brisket Bun Solo Side Pulled Pork Garlic Fries Big Red Mexican Coke Mustard Dip

Quality BBQ joint on the outskirts of Glasgow - dead easy to access if driving on a school day. Verrrry tasty albeit slightly dry and impressively tall burgers and ribs that fall off the bone. Food could have been warmer when served to us but we nevertheless enjoyed it immensely.Food: 4/5

Great burger, but on the pricey end 8/10  A customisable burger experience, though the menu could be clearer on what counts as extras. The smashed patties and caramelised onions were standout, but the burger was slightly dry. Loved the sweet buns and crispy Cajun and garlic fries. Note: The small space fills with kitchen odours and parking is tough. Total was £40, a bit pricey due to unexpected topping charges. Worth a visit if nearby and craving a solid burger. Not great for parking if you’re not in the area.

Whilst looking up BBQ shacks in Glasgow, I stumbled on this place.  Now first up, you can only make reservations if you have a party of 10 or more, if not you need to turn up and take a chance. Table turn around time is fast so you should not wait more than 15 minutes fingers crossed.  Free parking outside from 6:30pm.  Looking at the menu there is a fair choice of food however it is a little burger top heavy, but as I said there is a lot of BBQ choices.  The food is ordered via an online app squared up and is delivered canteen style on metal trays.  We ordered way too much for two people, but in my defence we a wanted to try a bit of everything and b we believed that portion sizes might be small. I was so wrong!  I ordered the brisket, ribs, burger with fries for myself. We also ordered more ribs, BBQ wings and Mac & Cheese.  The ribs meat fell off the bone and were smoked/seasoned perfectly, same with the brisket, not only was the meat juicy and moist, but the portion size was perfect. The burger was clearly handmade and was cooked perfectly. I was told the wings were also amazing and the Mac & Cheese was great. The only comment I would say is the BBQ Wings did have a little too much sauce on them for my personal taste, that was just me personally.  A couple of things, seating is a little cramped, not a big thing, but could be an issue if you were disabled or in a chair.  The restaurant is styled to be a USA BBQ shack and most of the respects it pulls it off, however playing UK dance music rather than the expected music choice blue grass country etc.. The surrounding/food did not marry with the music.  Lastly it is a shame, not a criticism, that the choice of sauces available was very limited to BBQ. If some more choices from USA regions were available this would definitely add to the experience.  Other than that, food was very reasonably priced and served promptly even though they were busy.  Thank you for a lovely evening and great food.

Me and my friend were in the area hungry. She wanted a steak Im vegan. This place doesnt have steaks but there was nothing else with vegan menu. Place looks run down from outside. In my opinion place is overpriced. Vegan burger wasnt any better than one you get in burger king I wish I went there to be honest pretty small, which is extremely disappointing,doesnt even come with fries, you need to get it separately and its too much of a portion.My friend had some cured beef in a bun, she wasnt blown away. For 20 quid per person I would expect a feast of amazing flavours. Friendly and polite staff

Went last night after wanting to go for a long time, service.... there is no service you order at the till and collect your own food at the counter, atmosphere... music that doesn't match the food, the food.... not worth half of what I payed burger and brisket where dry and tasteless, chips had far to much garlic salt on them and the mac and cheese was below average if your looking for good food of this kind try drury street instead burgers are far better! And there is atmosphere and service!

Amazing food! Been coming for years now and it’s always great. On the pricey side but I do think it’s worth it for the quality. The staff are always lovely and the inside is perfect for what it is.Food: 5/5

One of my favourite places to go in Glasgow ever. The chicken burgers are the best in the biz, the staff are always nice and the vibes are top notch.Food: 5/5

The best Texan BBQ place in Scotland.  The burgers are fantastic, but the brisket & pulled pork are standouts.  Huge fan of their coleslaw also - have been trying to recreate that at home for years now.  10/10 worth a visit

TLDR: one portion of fries is enough for 2 people. Wouldn't recommend the garlic fries. Everything else is delicious.  Longer version: We ordered 2 burgers, 2 fries, 2 drinks. It was fairly expensive, but the reviews were promising. The burgers were succulent. The Cajun fries were tasty. My only flavour complaint is that the garlic fries were overcooked and had an overpowering rosemary taste, with a garlicky aftertaste. My suggestion to management would be to change the type of garlic you use in the recipe... Perhaps powder or oil instead of what looked like granules.  Friendly staff, clean toilet facilities however, not accessible. Great variety of imported soft drinks - including Mexican Coca Cola!
