This is a little long, but Dreamland has great BBQ!! It’s only ribs and sausage, but they’re both great! The 2 times I’ve been there, the ribs and sausage have been cooked to perfection! Being from Texas, I’m having a hard time getting use to the mustard based BBQ sauces around here, but so far Dreamland has the best sauce. It even has a little kick if you like a little heat. Me not being a fan of their sauce, doesn’t take away from the great ribs they’ve produced the two times I’ve been there. I’ll just get the ribs without sauce next time. Their sausage is top notch!! I forget the gals name who waited on me both times, but she is absolutely AMAZING!! No matter how busy she was, she was always there at the right time and she has a great personality! Their is also another gal who (I’m assuming is a waitress also) that goes around helpingshe has an amazing personality also. Their baked beans are greatmaybe a little more onion, but still good. If you pass on the banana pudding, all I can say is your loss! Definitely a great place to gofrom the food to the great hospitality!! I’ll definitely be back again before I leave town.
Good ole' barbecue joint. They have problem with consistency though. Some days I have had the best barbecues, some days are not just that good. Never skip the banana pudding.
Service was great; friendly and welcoming staff. Environment was warm and inviting.
Ribs were the equivalent of cooked ribs in someone’s backyard. My husband thought the sauce was good but my preference is sweet and spicy so I wasn’t thrilled about anything except the banana pudding..
We ate quite literally a loaf of bread because that’s what was the appetizer.. sliced bread and sauce to dip it in. That was better than the ribs. Ribs were what we came for and they were so over cooked we didn’t finish them.
Basically spent $40 dollars for bread and a scoop of banana pudding. The two sides we had were extra small sizes.. disappointing.
Local beer was really good.
Hard to get to. But more than worth it! I had a Rack to go, and they took amazing care of me! The Ribs were, in my experience, AMAZING! Gotta try it! You won't be disappointed.
The food was delicious. The service was underwhelming at best. I’m not even sure we even received “service” at all actually. Any time we needed anything we had to wonder around looking for someone. We were there for 1.5 hours with a small group of 4 and there were maybe 3 other families at the restaurant. Honestly there was no excuse for the lack of service we received and it really took away from how good the food was. Won’t be going back and do not recommend
Best ribs I've ever had. Very tender and flavorful, pulls right off the bone. The sauce is to die for. They only serve ribs and sausage as entrees, so this isn't a place to bring your vegetarian friends.
If you're looking for fussy barbecue or a huge menu, this is not your place. It's a limited menu of simple items done very well. The ribs were excellent, cooked perfectly and seasoned beautifully. If you need a sweet barbecue sauce, this might not be the best place for you. But I love a good vinegar-heavy sauce just as much as a sweet one, so I was happy. I was surprised to see a review that mentioned too little meat on the ribs, because we had the exact opposite experience. My potato salad was delicious and flavorful, but the absolute best thing we had was the banana pudding. I can't recommend this place enough.
Ribs had very little meat. Not a fan of tangy sauce without any balance of sweet. Prices were reasonable, however. Expected a lot more out of a “renowned” bbq spot.
Unbelievably simple and good. Just wow. Prices are very reasonable. Beer selection could be better, but that doesn't subtract from the awesome ribs. I'll be back, many, many times.
Delicious ribs! I'm not usually a fan of ribs, but their ribs were lean and cooked perfectly. Also, even though it's a chain restaurant, it's got a certain ambience I've never seen anywhere else that makes this restaurant feel like a truly unique dining experience. I would definitely recommend any meat lovers try this Bar-B-Q restaurant! Vegans or vegetarians should probably take a pass though
Some of the best ribs I've ever had! I hadn't researched the place prior to coming by, so at first I was disappointed there was no pulled pork option (my barbecue go-to), but after trying the ribs, I realized that was misguided grief. The slaw was okay, and I liked the banana pudding, but the highlight is definitely the ribs. Well worth the short detour from the interstate if you happen to be in town.
Don't go here if you want a big menu selection. The first time I went was in the 1980's and you had one choice, ribs! The place was always packed out-the-door. They have other locations now but there is nothing like the original. It's not one of those hipster dives, it is the real deal and has been for the over 30 years I've gone there. The sauce is incomparable. Nothin' like em' nowhere.
The original Dreamland is incredibly delicious. Their menu is limited, but the flavor is definitely worth it. Their portions are big - feel free to split with someone!
This is the real deal. Their menu is limited to only a few of BBQ's offerings. I believe the ribs are their "go to" entree. The place is filled with history of famous people and celebs that have visited the restaurant. I really enjoyed the ambiance and the food. It is a hole in the wall but this usually makes the best BBQ.
