Real reviews from real East Dallas guests, who really love us. A lot.

  • Love this place so much! Genius concept. The Asian smokehouse style is so good. Still great bbq meat but with a light refreshing twist. The veg dishes and salads are some of my favorites. The food always comes so fast too! Get Aaron Franklin bbq without the line! Great happy hour deals too. lots of seating options! Order at the bar. Can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Go with a group so you can try lots!

  • Wow! Love this place. Very reasonably priced, nice staff, cool calm and collective environment… and the FOOD! We ordered some drinks and 3 dishes. Also, the staff was so excited to share a few of their favorite dishes, just to get our honest opinion. Hands down, best restaurant experience, anywhere in the country, in years. Love that y’all are in my city as well. Will be back. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

  • Amazing collaboration between two amazing and famous Chefs. Franklin’s BBQ and Uchi’s Chef Cole for the best Asian & Texas BBQ fusion ever! I recommend ordering several things to share. The drinks/cocktails are amazing. Mixing the iced tea with their lemonades was addictive and refreshing. Excellent location, plenty of free parking, patios and dog friendly.
