Dallas BBQ

Dallas BBQ brings Texas smoke to the Upper West Side. This casual barbecue spot sits at 27 W 72nd St, just steps from Central Park West, where the neighborhood’s mix of pre-war apartments and weekend strollers keeps the sidewalks lively. Barbecue here leans into comfort food territory, with plates built for sharing—or not—over lunch and dinner.

They serve alcohol and cocktails alongside the usual ribs, brisket, and pulled pork, so the meal can stretch into an evening if the group wants. Kids are welcome, and the low-key vibe works for families as easily as it does for a quick solo bite. The menu stays simple, focused on smoky flavors without extra fuss, making it a reliable stop when the craving for slow-cooked meat hits.

Reach them at (212) 873-2004 if you need to check wait times or seating. For directions, pull up the map—it’s the kind of place you’ll walk past a few times before finally going in.
