We stopped in for lunch ready to try this place. I wanted to get a sampling of what they had to offer and got the pit sandwich. Texture of the meats was on point. The brisket, pulled pork, and sausage were tender, but lacking in flavor. Next up were the bison ribs, much better flavor profiles. Nice crust on the ribs and they were very tender. Sides- French fries were crisp and just enough salt, corn casserole was okay and had the texture of grits which kind of threw me off. Fried okra tasted fresh and was amazing! The jalapeño hush puppies were also very tasty. The cornbread muffin was cakey and sweet.
Service was also amazing: friendly faces, check ins, and quick!
Definitely come here, eat up and get full. Just use the sauces which are great! I’m just not someone who uses a lot of sauce on my bbq.

This place is absolutely amazing. The front staff was super friendly. The food was delicious and came out quickly. The red chili is like, one of the best chilis my husband and I have ever had. Our waitress Arminel was a sweetheart and just great all around. I had to stop and let the manager know about how great her service was and overall experience tonight. 20/10 would recommend stopping here!

Traditional BBQ place. Came here on a whim, had to wait outside for over half an hour. Took bar seating, very nice atmosphere, service was cordial but not exceptional, ordered a 2 meat plate and some drinks. The chicken was nice, brisket acceptable. Sides and chili and salad ate very good. Worth a try but not in the running for the best BBQ out there for me.

The best BBQ in Estes. The staff is really friendly and this place gives of “everybody knows your name” vibes. I suggest ordering the combo plate so you can get a pallet of the menu. My fave is the brisket and the sausage. The sweet BBQ sauce is my fav and they also have plenty of other sauces. If you’re looking for a place to get lunch or dinner after your visit in the Park or the town, definitely come here for a recharge. Shout out to Raul for suggesting the jalapeño cheddar sausage.

Very good meal enjoyed the Pitmaster who came to our table to ask our meal was. Ribs for fall off the bone style and tasty pulled pork was delicious, only thing the brisket was a little bit on the dull side but that may be a personal preference barbecued chicken was tasty and moist. Atmosphere was good service was outstanding.

I had a five star experience! We took 20 people into this restaurant unannounced and they seated us very nearly immediately and served us some spectacular barbecued foods on monstrous family style platters! The atmosphere was similar to a bar, but it was very relaxed and they were definitely kid friendly there which is good because we had a rowdy bunch of kids. The service was quick and attentive. But let’s talk about the sauce. The sauce was extremely good! Overall, five star experience!

This was REALLY good BBQ. Honestly priced for BBQ and it was really darn good with large portions. The kids loved it, I loved it, and super picky Hubs even said it was good! Service was friendly, efficient, and attentive. It was PACKED but we had no wait to get in. We ended up eating our fill AND taking home stuffed full to go boxes. We got the appetizer sampler (19$) and one of the shared plates (45$) and 6 buns (7-8$). It was all good, am actually very excited to go back and would HIGHLY recommend.

We had an amazing experience thanks to our server Arminel. She was fantastic, kind, and very attentive throughout the entire evening. We came back to celebrate our anniversary because she made our previous visit so special and memorable.
The food was delicious, the prices were very reasonable, and the service was outstanding. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better.
We will definitely be coming back again. Thank you, Arminel, for making our anniversary so special!

We had such a great experience! From the moment we arrived, we were a party of 6 adults & 3 children and the hostess made us feel welcome and taken care of.
Our server Angel was attentive without being overbearing, always checking in at the perfect time and making sure our drinks were never empty.
The food was absolutely incredible, we ordered the Big Kahuna Belly Buster. The family platter was loaded with perfectly smoked brisket, tender pulled pork, juicy chicken, and fall-off-the-bone ribs smothered in rich BBQ sauce. The fries were crisp, the cornbread muffins warm and fluffy, and the creamy coleslaw balanced everything out. It was the kind of meal where you keep saying “just one more bite” even when you’re already full.
On top of the delicious food, Angel’s friendly attitude and great service really stood out. They made the experience feel even more enjoyable and memorable for our group.
We’ll definitely make the long drive again for Smokin’ Dave’s BBQ!
