Review:
I went to Dickey’s Barbecue in Orem, Utah to get food for my family. We ordered a selection of sandwiches and sides, including Big Barbecue Sandwiches (brisket and pulled pork). I also purchased a Westerner with spicy cheddar sausage and brisket along with various sides, including the beans, mac & cheese, waffle iron fries, baked potato casserole, creamy coleslaw and the barbecue beans.
While I was there, they provided me samples of the meat. It was great to sample the pork, the brisket and the sausage before I ordered. In the restaurant, they had several things that were pretty cool. There was free ice cream and free pickles and they had the ability to get free drinks if you signed up for their text message list.

The food was pretty good for fast food BBQ. I enjoyed the sandwiches a lot. They provided the sauce in separate containers so if you ordered your food to go the bread didn’t get soggy…pretty smart.
The sides were good as well. I really enjoyed the slaw and the baked potato casserole. The mac & cheese and beans and bacon were pretty good as well. My family said that the waffle fries were delicious. The barbecue beans were nothing special, but not bad.

Overall, I enjoyed my meal at Dickey’s Barbecue and I would go again. I have got to try their ribs next visit.
My family and I ordered from the Lawrence, NY location and I tell you, I have never in my life been so dissatisfied with food from a chain. The meat was so dry we were choking on it. The chicken was not thick, moist and juicy like you see on their menu. It was cold cut thin slices that were petrified. The mac and cheese was so spicy we had to throw it out. It was inedible. The amount of money I spent one would think that we would have gotten 5 star food. The only thing that was worth the money was the baked potato my daughter got – but still over 10$ for a baked potato is bloody ridiculous. Whomever is in charge of the franchised locations needs to handle the ridiculous prices for small amounts of food for incredibly high costs and the fact that nothing you order looks like what you see on the menu. Very disappointed and we will never go back.
Ate at Dickeys in Nederland Texas, Best food yet and sauce was great also. Young people working were friendly, neat and clean. Job well done,
Thank you
My husband went in to get dinner to bring home. The girl doing the tangles was so busy talking, she completely ignored the timer going off and therefor we had burnt tangles that we couldn’t even eat!!
I called to talk to a manager and was told there wasn’t one on duty.
And the girl I spoke to was EXTREMELY rude!!!!
Just had bbq brisket sandwich. I was so excited there was a new bbq place. To my dismay it was the worst bbq I have ever had. I live in ohio sorry but City Bbq has you beat.
I ate at the dickies in round rock Texas very disappointed Iordered a chop beef sandwich and it must’ve been a day-old Definitely was not fresh on top of that along with a large drink I spent nine dollars for a biscuit sandwich small sandwich I won’t be going back
Had to spend $2.25 for a cup of water because there are NO healthy drink options. I probably won’t be going back because of that!
Just ate at the new location in Mobile AL. The service was slow but even worse was the portions. I ordered the 3 meat plate and it came to around $15 and was left still hungry. The brisket and the pork was dry, I did enjoy the Spicy cheddar sausage. There are two many great bbque places here to spend that money on mediocrity.
you got rid of hot links and pasta salad therefore you lost me as a customer
We ate at Dickies in Palmdale, CA about three weeks ago. The food was very disappointing: barely warm and overpriced for what you get. I ordered the half rack of bbq ribs and it came by itself. Side dishes were extra. There was no “rib plate”. My husband ordered a dinner plate. There is no comparison to the nearby Famous Dave’s. Dickies doesn’t even offer corn or corn bread. Those two items are staples of a so-called “BBQ” restaurant. Also, their desserts are very commercialized and leave a lot to be desired. Save your money. This is not a genuine BBQ place, as to what most people are accustomed. The items offered are very limited. Food should be served hot.
We ate at Dickies in Lufkin, Texas today, March 12, 2014.. I had guests and wanted them to eat some good barbeque. My husband and I eat at Dickies at least three to four times a month. Today, the service was terrible and the lady that waited on us as you walk in was RUDE!. The buns on the specials and the cornbread sandwich were refrigerator cold!. We asked her to reheat the cornbread bun (it was the coldest) and she rolled her eyes and said “we don’t have a microwave. I can’t believe it is cold.” Let’s just say, none of our sandwiches were warm enough to even melt the cheese. I was embarrassed for my guests. To top it off, there was no ice in the ice machine and no one got in a rush to fill it up. The lady, that was evidently in charge, was even rude to her workers. Let’s just say, it will be a while before I go back. I was very disappointed. Customer service goes a LONG way.
