Fantastic restaurant. The atmosphere was buzzing and had a great vibe in there. We were greeted with a smile and shown straight to our table. Our waiter was extremely friendly and helpful. He had a great sense of humour and with his charm and wit put us at ease straight away. We were rather overwhelmed by the menu - having lots of tasty options we found it hard to choose!! And sensing our confusion our waiter came over and offered advice and help and his own personal recommendations (the Korean BBQ Wings - WOW). The cocktails were delicious and the food was every bit as nice as it sounded. All for what we felt were very reasonable prices. Would definitely recommend this restaurant and would not hesitate to return next time we are in the area!

great food, a bit noisy, and fairly priced. The best chicken wings so fat and juicy. Wango Tango sauce is really spicy and great kick. Try the honey mustard wings a bit milder. Love all the sides especially mac n cheese and crunchy cucumber salad, and Harlem potato salad.

Having eaten a lot of BBQ recently in Austin, Dinosaur BBQ’s quality is right up there meat- and sides-wise. The atmosphere was comfortable and the tables spaced well to allow for conversation. I will definitely go back!
