The Mac & cheese was awesome! The sweet tea was flavorful. But sadly, my brisket was pretty dry 🙁
The BBQ sauce was good, it reminded me of a sweet onion sauce mixed with traditional bbq sauce. The nachos were very filling. Overall, I would go back.

The staff is great, and the food was made quickly, but for $20 a lunch, I was hoping my smoked Texas BBQ would have had better flavor.
When I filled up my cup, the first two fountain drinks of choice were empty so I settled for my third.
For a BBQ place I thought I’d find napkins, but all they had were the one ply ones that came with your plastic fork.

The coleslaw was disappointing. It was cabbage with salt and pepper. My spouse had brisket nachos which he thought was okay. I had the turkey sandwich, and it had no smoky flavor, and was a bit dry. I do love smoking my own food, so maybe I’m picky, I wouldn’t go here again.

Saw the joint when transiting through Dallas Ft Worth airport, but couldn’t stop by, since I had to catch my flight. On the way back, I had half an hour layover, so I finally stopped by for a quick bite, two weeks after my first visit. Perhaps that alone inflated my expectation for a good Texan BBQ.

I ordered the sampler plate with pulled pork, brisket, and sausage. I got fries, coleslaw and corn for sides. It wasn’t cheap, but for an airport dining option, I could tolerate it.

The pork was okay, and the brisket could be more tender, but the slaw was tasteless. Perhaps it was late in the day, and I got a bad batch, but it was quite disappointing. The sausage, on the other hand, was the saving grace. The casing was not as snappy as I would like, but I could taste the seasoning in the meat. But would I return here for the sausage alone? Perhaps, but I wish I have more reasons to do so.

We really enjoyed this bbq restaurant. You are at an airport so, of course, it will never be the same as being to a regular place (disposable plates and cutlery, etc.) Still, the food was delicious and the service was quick, which is what you want when you are flying. Bbq sauce excellent!

The food was standard for an airport location: the brisket had a lot of fat and there wasn’t much in the sandwich, the potato was relatively cold and not that fresh, etc. In addition, the price was too high for the value. The service was ok but quite fast. Might not come back.

The meat was good. The Cloe slaw and corn were not that good. Baked beans were pretty good. A little sweet but tasty. The brisket was very good. Overall I would say kind of expensive even for airport food.

We were in the Dallas Airport and looking for a quick bite to eat. It was quick but the food was cold and not flavorful. We got the sausage sandwich, which was on special, the brisket plate with fries, corn and baked beans, the chop chop sandwich, and coleslaw. Like I said, the food was cold, fries were not seasoned, corn was not buttered and the baked beans were not seasoned either. They asked if we wanted sauce on our sandwiches and brisket and we said yes, but the amount of BBQ sauce they put on the food was so minimal we couldn’t even tell. Had to wait another 5 minutes to get someone’s attention to get some more BBQ sauce.

Stopped into Salt Lick during a layover. I had the Pork Rib platter. The ribs weren’t bad, fell off the bone, but just nothing to write home about. And a little pricey – 3 ribs for $20 but I understand airport pricing. I’m glad I asked for the BBQ sauce in the side because it had a honey mustard taste to it that would’ve really taken away from my ribs. My girl had the Brisket Nachos, and it came with pinto beans, jalapeños and lots of cheese. She said they were delicious! I’d say the best part of dining at Salt Lick for me was the setting. In a busy airport they offer a nice quiet get away with a good seating area. Lastly the service was great! The man who took my order was very polite. Took me off guard when their card machine asked for a tip when no service was really provided. I gave them a tip to not be rude but heads up on that

It smells so good as I was walking to my gate on September 24th that after dropping off my luggage I had to walk back and order me some bbq. The brisket was so delicious and tender
I didn’t really care for the potato salad so didn’t eat it. To me it was too late vinegary but some people like that ‍♀️. I enjoyed everything else.

Visited while on a layover at DFW. Service was fairly quick in having your order ready and also offered takeout options.

The pulled pork sandwich was okay as it was a decent portion size and had okay flavour with tender meat. However, it was a bit pricey for just the sandwich and somewhat forces you to get the platter/combo meal for better value.

Overall, an okay spot at the airport to get Texas BBQ.
