Comments of Side Door Barbecue
C. C.
Fantastic experience. Plenty of options on the menu both food and drink. Booths were comfortable and service was good. Paid just over $300 for 6 adults with alcoholic beverages and everyone left full and happy. My only gripe would be that there wasn't a lot of space for my Granny to walk through the restaurant with her Walker, so accessibility could be better. Overall a good experience.
H. P.
Seated promptly despite not having a booking and table service was fast. Ordered our food and beers quickly. We opted for the Dallas share platter and added jalapeno poppers and fries. Everything was very tasty and cooked well. The blue cheese sauce was amazing. Would come back again
T. M.
My partner and I went for lunch on a Sunday it was busy - but not too busy which was great.
To start we ordered the jalapèno poppers which were quite big and not too hot - usually I don't eat them because they're too hot for me.
For our main meal we ordered the Dallas share platter which came with:
- chicken wings
- pulled pork
- brisket slices
- pork belly lollipops
- hush puppies (large, crumbed cornbread cubes mixed with cheese and jalapéno) & finally
- coleslaw
For sides we ordered the mac n cheese and cornbread. I ate most of the cornbread which was delish 😋
To drink we shared a jug of old fashioned American lemonade which I
loved.
The servers were attentive and polite and the decor was appropriate.
Now, it sounds like a lot of food but we always take the leftovers home for dinner.
The negatives;
1. The coleslaw was gross, literally the worst slaw I've ever eaten. We ate two spoons and didn't eat the rest which was a waste because it comes in a big bowl.
2. One slice of brisket was soft - the other slice - very dry.
3. The pork belly lollipops were hard and too big for my mouth, I had to cut them in half.
4. The wings, pulled pork and pork belly lollipops all had the same sauce on them which was a strange asian-satay style sauce not BBQ.
5. The taps in the bathroom were valve openings and the water came out very quickly and smelt like sewerage, there was an odd insense-like smell lingering.
All-in-all, I have mixed feelings.
T. M.
Come over for a quick bite, Sunday nite, 40% table occupied. Large table available.
The rib portion is large, 400 g for 25 aud, reasonable and cheap.
Sauce is bbq based with a touch of spicy, which is very smart, perfectly removes the oily and fat taste in the rib, but left a juicy feeling and crispy skin. Coleslaw taste like being positioned in fridge for a while, probably made in the morning. Overall taste above average .
Something can be improved, I stand at the busy counter for over 2 mins, more than 2 waitress are free, but no one comes over until I called. This turns the restaurant to a deli shop.
All above can gives a “can try when passing nearby” for this bbq shop, considering the food quality, smart cook and most of the friendly staffs.
The star tick off:
the owner/manager first sentence to me is : Uber eat?, other than simple greetings. I probably won’t come over again before work for uber eats. GLTA

1st time visiting.
Pleasant environment. Spacious
We ordered Brisket and pork ribs plate for 1.
Brisket was tender, pork rib was really good and the value of meal is better than Frank's BBQ.
K. P.
Ordered a platter for two, with extra corn bread, mac n cheese and lollipop pork belly. The best thing are their pork ribs, mac n cheese, and the fantastic service from Devi. It was a nice lunch ☀️
V. H.
Food and staff were mostly very good! Beef rib was unfortunately quite dry, but otherwise one of the better American BBQ places in Perth!
K.
Food was great, service was a little all.over the place. When we asked for dessert at 8pm the waiter had to check as the kitchen was closed.
S. M.
Be prepared to eat some of the most delicious BBQ of your life though be warned... the sizes are. MASSIVE. We got two of the single serve platters and are big eaters but we barely finished one platter and rolled out of the door. Be prepared to be haunted by dreams of their pork, brisket and corn bread
W. A.
A quality restaurant with great service spacious and clean .If you like quality meats ,this is your place.
All at a fair reasonable price.
R. A.
Attended this place twice in my time in Perth.
The first attendance (in 2019) was great. The food was amazing. Brisket was tender and cooked perfectly, and everything I tried was cooked to perfection.
Fast forward to my second attendance (last week, December 2021) and to be frank, the quality of the product, has slid drastically for the worse. Brisket was over cooked and dry, the pulled pork and pull beef, somewhat underwhelming. The only redeeming products on the table were the pork belly pops and the chicken wings.
Unsure if it was due to change in staff, or general practices in the kitchen, however some improvements may need to be made
K. B.
Amazing food! The serves were great sizes for the money and good value. The cocktails are delicious and the atmosphere is welcoming and vibrant even om a rainy day. We felt welcomed and not rushed at all when ordering food and well looked after by the attentive staff.
C. a. P. F.
Reviews seem to be hit and miss but our experience was awesome! Had the Austin Share platter, everything was cooked perfectly and was delicious. Will definitely come back!

18/12/2021: Went down for a late lunch with a group of 6. Apart from the pub crawl group who were sitting outside when we got there, we were the only ones there. We went with the Austin platter and the waiter warned us that it was usually for 4 or 5 people so we also ordered a bowl of chips as well. The food was good with the corn bread and hush puppies being the stand outs. All the meat was tender and juicey, even the brisket (although that usually depends on how you cut it). I was a bit disappointed that we only got 5 of each of the BBQ wings and the pork belly lollipops as the waiter knew that there were 6 of us and obviously didn't convey that to the kitchen. This is a small detail but not too hard to make sure you get right, for a relatively small cost. Everyone agreed that the Austin platter was enough food for the 6 of us. Pricing is not cheap considering the amount of competition that they have on Beaufort St. Worth a look if you are curious to try authentic American BBQ.
V.
Love the food, glad to have a BBQ place so close to home.
Happy vibes make a happy family.
H. K.
Most foods were good but briskets were dry and corn cobs were average. Service was friendly but incredibly slow
R. J. H. (.
We had bbq set menu and add pork ribs. The meat cooked perfectly but they use one sauce on every meats for chicken, pork and beef. I wish to taste different flavour but couldn’t. I think they need put different sauces on the meat. Otherwise chips was amazing. But I won’t come back here, just once enough.
C. M.
New favourite BBQ place, can't fault it, my only issue is that I think I'm going into labour, which is a real problem as a middle aged man!
N. H.
When your regular BBQ house is closed, Side Door BBQ will more than just do! Shared a delicious platter, Highly recomended for any fellow meat connoisseur. Mouth watering devine meats will surely have you getting so hott it'll be more than meat sweats ;)

2016/17 - Best BBQ in Perth A++
*Update* Sept 2020
Since dining at the place back in 2016 and dropping in a few times each year, I can say my last visit around Father's Day was a let down.
Comparing the photos from last visits to now, there is a big drop in quality, extras and flavours.
The Pork Lollipop's were 95% Fat
The Ribs both beef & pork were excessively fatty
The sausage this time was flavourless and full of gristle..
Hush puppies were dry and flavourless...
The spices, rubs, meat flavours aren't like they used to be... I walked away feeling like not coming back
I'm not sure what's changed, but I don't feel it's for the better.
The staff and service are still excellent, just the food quality and love has dropped away...
J. P.
Best key lime pie I've tasted, bar none! Awesome brownies too.
BBQ is also tops, but the desserts steal the show.
Will be coming here more!
M. K.
Nice place. Ribs were good, pork belly lollipops were delicious, southern fried chicken wings were great, however their brisket was a disappointment. Tasted like roast beef and was falling apart as it was severely overcooked. Good selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. Great choice of sides.
All in all solid 4 stars. Recommended.
B. D.
I haven't had decent cornbread since I left my home in Kentucky 19 years ago. This place is amazing and the cornbread almost had me in tears of happiness. Wait staff are wonderful as well.
S. W.
Simply the best, most authentic American BBQ in Perth. The brisket is superb, the mac and cheese is delightful, the service is excellent and the beef short rib and pork ribs are divine. The sauces are legit (try the BBQ Espresso) and apparently the beetroot salad is next level - I couldn't fit it in unfortunately. Get down there!
J. H.
Really good BBQ, hard to find in Perth! For $40 you get an absolute FEED.
b.
Nice friendly feel walking in to the restaurant. Definitely looks busy for a Friday night. We ordered a platter to share. The one thing that's worth mentioning is the slow cooked beef brisket. It was tasty and melted in the mouth! Probably the only thing on the platter worth going back for. The other types of meat on the platter we found a little salty for outs taste.
B. D.
We ordered the pork belly bites, jalapeno poppers, brisket, chicken wings, chilli cheese sausage, beef short rib, potato salad, corn and bbq beans. Nothing really stood out however everything was consistently good, presentation was on point, food came out quickly and the staff were friendly.
M. H.
Food was amazing, great staff who were well rehersed with the menu and offered recommends on what food to eat. Man sized platters which were more than sufficient. The only con I have to say was the parking was very limited. Otherwise was a great place to meet up with friends to eat great food. Make sure to book in advance as it gets very busy.
M. Y.
A restaurant for meat lovers! We had the Austin platter, the beef brisket was so tender, but another piece of meat (the rib?) was overcooked. Awesome service though, cute little towels and we had a nice time!
T. H.
Amazing American style barbeque and slow cooked meats. We had the platter for 4, plus a couple of sides. Was more than enough for 5 of us. We were all more than full and satisfied. Highly recommend for a meat feast
N. T.
For Saturday lunch we ordered takeaway to be picked up at 12pm. Upon entry my husband was impressed with their attentive and timely service.
The menu sounded delicious so we decided to order a variety to try since we're not from the area. We ordered the brisket (180g), beef short ribs (500g), pork ribs St Louis cut (400g), smoked and pulled pork burger, Southern fried chicken thigh burger, and the SDB burger.
Even after driving 25 mins to get home, the meats and burgers were warm!
The smell of the smoke BBQ meat permeated the house and the pork ribs St Louis cut did not disappoint!!! It was juicy and tender and the sauce was finger picking goooood! The beef short ribs were fall-apart tender but lacked any sauce. The only sauce we got was a half filled small container as pictured. If they were more generous with the sauce this would have been as excellent as the pork ribs!
The brisket was disappointing: two dry slices of meat void of any flavour, moisture or tenderness. The chicken burger remained crispy (impressive!) but was dry and lacked flavour. The slice of chicken thigh was also quite thin so the ratio of burger bun to chicken made it feel like i was just eating bread with batter.
Moving on to the SDB burger, i would say it's average; a filling size for the price but nothing special. However, the smoked and pulled burger was sensational!! The coleslaw with the generous amount of juicy pulled pork was a flavour explosion in your mouth!! The combination worked so well and left you wanting more!!
We will definitely return for the pulled pork burger and the pork and beef ribs, but this time we will know to ask for more sauce! Especially because takeaways give a 20% discount!
P. O.
A little hidden gem we came across in Mt Lawley when looking for a place to eat. American themed throughout with popcorn to chomp whilst looking at the tasty menu. Plenty of seating ideal for large groups, but also cater for small groups and couples too. Food was incredibly tasty, look out for the lolly pop pork belly 😍😍. Staff were amazing and couldn't do enough for us, you can tell there is a great culture at this venue which allows an awesome dining experience. Highly recommend for lunch or dinner.

My husband received a voucher from his footy girls as they know as a Yank he loves his bbq, corn bread and collard greens. When we got there we were welcomed with big smiles and very helpful staff. We ordered the pork lollipops as a starter. Was a little dry but tasty. The corn bread was okay. Needed some sugar to sweeten it up and maybe butter on the side. Pork ribs was more like Pork belly. Was tender and sweet. Had a sweet Asian like sauce. American style bbq sauce would have nailed it. Beef ribs were good. Top piece a little dry but underneath was tender. Needed bbq sauce which the server did mention. Sticky chicken wings was nice and spicy. Fried eggplant was so bland that it needed salt and pepper. Collard greens should be soft in a lot of liquid and maybe some
Pork pieces or ham hock, but, it was firm parsley looking greens with green beans, broccoli and a cheesy liquid sauce. To top it all off the Coleslaw was disgusting and the potato salad was so Bland. Woolworths slaw and potato salad beats this for sure. Have no idea what Mayo they used but we had a spoon of each and wasted the rest. Amazing crew but I had to be honest in these reviews. Took the left over meat home as it wasn’t bad at all. I guess hubby will keep on cooking our bbq and soul food from now on. Toilets were clean but a funny smell coming from The drain. I actually like the valve like tap (different).

Meat lovers' utopia. Ordered their Austin platter last night. Loved the brisket and ribs. But it was their homemade sausage that won the night for us.
Great food, great vibes and even better service. A great evening out with the family.
T. L.
Ate here last night. Nice atmosphere. Family friendly and great for dates, solo eats, and friendly catch ups too. I love the booths. Food was delicious. You don't need to order a set share platter, you can build your own which is what we did. The BBQ home sauce is very good. Leftovers tasted delicious today. Not a lot of parking nearby but you should find something in one of the side streets. Happy BBQ to everyone!

This is my second visit to Side Door. Ww thought we'd go back and give it another try.
But it wasn't the experience we were looking for.
Let's start with what was good. The pulled Pork and The Pulled Chicken was great please try if you go here.
But the BBQ beans with burnt ends. The worst I've ever had in my life. The beans were undercooked and had no taste or flavors to them. They were hard and dry. Really bad.
The Hush puppies and the jalapeños peppers were bad as well. I've had great Hush puppies normally with catfish that's another story, but these Hush puppies were dry no taste or flavor very bland very bland.
The peppers were hard and had very little taste at all to them.
The Mac and cheese I really love Mac and cheese and what we got wasn't Mac Mac cheese it was pasta noodles mixed with cheese. It didn't have any levels to it, no flavor or taste just a cheese and noodle taste that's not Mac and cheese.
I'd love to speak with you guys and work with you on your food because there's potential.
Have a blessed day.
Thank you.
Lastly the service ending on a good note. Tje service was great.
R. M.
Delicious food.
Came here fairly last minute, food was fresh and delicious.
Think we ordered too much, but was worth it.
We did feel the wings could have a little less sauce but that's no biggy.
A. V.
Wow, this is one of my favorites in Perth, the food is really good, they offered variety of bbq plates like the one in the picture, very good atmosphere and attention, a little bit difficult for parking if the street is busy but in general this place is awesome!.
a. h.
Quite a good vibe, not too loud food was good , doesnt really stand out in a niche food way. But overall good experiance.
A. Z.
Outstanding food and extremely prompt service.
The venue itself is very well presented and is the perfect setting for you to over order meat and end up in a meat coma.
D. A. T.
Yummy I recommend brisket, beef ribs, eggplant. Quiet at odd hours if you don't like a line. Bottomless coffee with breakfast before 3pm.
Z. R.
Great service, great food, good spacing and general vibe. I got the second big share platter with a few extras, enjoyed it all. Best of all, decent priced beer to wash it down. Definitely plan to come again!
A. B. W.
When I was in Burswood area, I asked Google to recommend a good food, and side door BBQ came out on the list with a good reputation. Then I decided to pay a visit, and ordered some foods. For sure it doesn't fails me, I love the food, the sauces they provided, the macaroni cheese bomb, etc etc. The staff here was really nice, for sure I will come back to side door bbq when I visit Perth next time.
B. S.
Brilliant BBQ meats. Very generous serves. Great service.
T. D.
American bbq really big serves so you get your moneys worthand super tasty... friendly staff and chilled environment. Seemed quite popular. Glad we found this little gem!
A.
Hands down the best bbq in Perth. We were concerned about the portion sizes being too small but we ended up leaving with left overs. Ribs were amazing and Mac and cheese is highly recommended. Service was A+
D. H.
Amazing food and great atmosphere. I challenge anyone to leave here hungry! The share platters are huge!
J. S. D.
Absolutely love this place, wonderful customer service and I'm embarrassed to say they remember me when I come back! extremely polite and prompt service that makes you want to go back. Food was great, best pulled brisket I've had and will definitely return! Picture is of a half eaten plate as it's hard to even think of taking a picture instead of eating. Definitely a great place, not on the cheap side but definitely worth the money :) Always a lovely atmosphere and a must try if you want American bbq.
M. B.
Fantastic, plentiful, tasty, mouthwatering food and very helpful and attentive service.
- Dallas plater,
- Sides - collard greens, cornbread, eggplant - and,
- Desserts - brownie and key lime pie which the 3 of us shared.
All dishes were exceptional.
L. T.
Massive generous portions. Food was a bit bland for my taste, but enjoyed greatly by my buddies. Able to split bill and take leftovers home :)
A.
The waitress was very friendly. Although the food was average and the food tasted bland and was a bit cold when it came out (did not seem as if it was freshly cooked)
C. M.
Great place to eat with generous servings. Very friendly efficient staff also.
D. H.
Great food! Serving size is definitely worth the price. The poster for two easily feeds the to four. Drinks are good.
Service can be a bit sharper and more attentive.
G. M.
Food was great, portions generous, staff could have been a touch more attentive but were pleasant and polite. Maybe someone called in sick. Nice array of southern style drinks to try, beer selection in cans is good but there was just 2 draft choices. Wonderful thing is that you can make up your own share plate from the selections available or pick off the menu.
M. K.
I ordered a single Pork Ribs combination for 1 person and it was more than enough for my wife and me
The combination consisted of a large piece of pork ribs, pulled pork, coleslaw, a chilli sausage and fries. All of it tasted pretty good.
I also ordered a serve of corn bread which tasted good.
Service was good and the place was fairly spacious
L. V.
Food was okay but the level of customer service was exemplary. Been to both breakfast and dinner but personally I find breakfast better than dinner.
p. r.
LOVE LOVE LOVE THE food! Firstly portions were so big for the platter! Food cooked to perfection as well and we had an attentive , cheerful, helpful and wonderful foh staff Nabil who made our first experience here truly unforgettable! The pork belly lolipops and brisket just melt in your mouth! Overall one of the best experiences for american bbq in perth! We cant breathe cause we are so full and our tummies are so happy! GOOD ON YA SIDE DOOR BBQ! We are definitely coming back for more!
A. F.
A nice place to go for dinner with friends and family. The large portions make it easy and affordable to order a few things and share.
K. K.
Amazing foods took me back to Texas! All tasted very authentic, especially loved the Pork Ribs, Corn Bread and pickles!
D. L.
Always a great feed! Love the brisket, cheesy mac and Corn bread! Just as good as US food IMO.
A. L.
Amazing customer service, waiters were so kind and catered nicely towards our needs. Wonderful BBQ food as well!!
J. L.
One night I was craving for some good American BBQ but I had not been able to find an authentic one. When I read the comments here on Google, I decided to give this place a try. Well! My partner and I both were very delighted to try out Side Door Barbecue. We ordered a share platter, and the meats were well cooked and seasoned. Just beautiful! The downside for me is the hush puppies. They were not that same as what I had in the US for 7 years, but I cannot deny that they were still very yummy. The staffs were very attentive and great at recommending food :)
D. T.
Food was great but what stood out the most was their excellent customer service. Every staff member we encountered was extremely helpful, approachable and friendly. We shared that we were celebrating a birthday when we came in and when we went to pay the bill at the end of the night they shared how they had planned to surprise us with a dessert and insisted we take it home with us. The waitress even ran out to my friend to exclaim "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" which was absolutely hilarious and heart warming. Will definitely continue to come back and recommend to others
R. L.
Breathe taking so much food and wonderful flavours.
C. J.
Good service very Smokey food . We had a variety but the same thick sauce was on all of it the coleslaw was the savior really nice . Perhaps some American beer would add more authenticity to the meal to help wash it down. Still this is a REALLY popular restraunt.
C. D.
We must have come on an off night, because the other reviews don't reflect the experience myself and two friends had last night.. The service was great, staff very friendly, no worries there. The food however was very underwhelming.. The brisket should have been the star, but was exceptionally dry and chewy much to my disappointment, and the mac and cheese balls would have been perfect if there was actually any cheesiness. Texture, crunch and presentation all great but no flavour at all. The pork belly pops did have great flavour but again were so chewy I nearly gave up.
The chicken wings were surprisingly good, super crunchy and tasty, and the pork ribs were delicious. Dessert was the key lime pie, and while tasty the crust was huge and took away from the flavour. A little disappointing.
All in all roughly half the meal was good and the other half bad, and for the price we paid, all three of us left feeling like we wouldn't be back. If the brisket was decent I think it might have saved the meal, but no such luck.
P. F.
Top notch service and food! Staff were so patient in explaining the menu and providing colour pencils for toddler. Food portions are humongous. Platter for X is more like platter for 2X. The brisket, fries, chicken wings were all to die for, especially with that chipotle like sauve. I want to go back for that brisket again and the raved ribs! Given the portions and quality of food, it's great value for money.
M. J.
Went last night. We waited over an hour for our food to come. Had a hard time getting the attention of servers. For some time it felt like no meals were leaving the kitchen. We realised later they were, it's just that they were all for delivery. Clearly, they had priority.
Drinks overly sweet. Food was ok but some not hot. Des and Reuben ( staff) were very accommodating to special dietary requirements but by the time we finally got our food, the special occasion we were celebrating was kind of ruined and our appetites had gone.
Sorry but we won't be back
J. M.
Take it from me I've been to texas quite a few times. I've been to the world famous Franklin bbq and to Salt lick and to pecan lodge. And I'm telling you side door is right up there with them. If your in Perth it's a must. I'm from Melbourne and it kills all the bbqs there and it's as good as any bbq you will get in texas. I love that place. And the owner is just so nice and cares about your experience there. LOOK NO FURTHER GO TO THE SIDE DOOR. I promise the bbq is world class. Wish I could give it a thousand stars.
C. W.
There’s a great variety of food to choose from, plus there’s a good selection of drinks. They have changed a few things this year and the flavours aren’t what they once were unfortunately. The staff are always super friendly and welcoming, however.
A. N.
I was really looking forward to visiting this place and it was pretty dissapointing. I would suspect a place that charges as much as they do should provide top class BBQ. They don't. It is good food (not great), but like nearly everything in Perth, overpriced. This is based on the share platter for 2. Service and atmosphere were great.
P. P.
Every now and then a restaurant really surprises you in a good way.
Our dinner at Side Door Barbecue last night was one of those.
This place is simply fantastic.
Great food. Great service. Great value.
If you are ready to experience the best of low and slow cooked meat, then this place is for you.
We attended with two kids, two adults, and bought a HUGE meat platter that we couldn't finish, with a starter, and drinks, for $120.00.
This place is value that you cannot beat and they really make smokey deliciousness.
This gushingly good review is not fake, it is completely honest. Look at my other reviews I rarely rave, and am a hard marker, so this endorsement is as good as it gets.
R. C.
Had my daughters 21st here. Food was fantastic; great armoshere and friendly attentive staff who went out of there way to make the night very special - thank you
T. W.
Food and service was good, cocktails are well made. Great start to a night out.
o. Q.
The only reason I gave this place five stars, was because I couldn't give it ten. Helpful staff, very organised, great beer selection and awesome platters. I was watching BBQ pit masters an was looking online. This was excellent BBQ. Try the corn bread
C. D. s.
Delicious food, and hottest jalapeño poppers I’ve ever had!
Can’t wait to go back for more..
E. R.
Fantastic food! Great atmosphere! Delightful drinks! An American style menu with a wonderdul selection of meats and sides. Cornbread with maple butter is delicious, pork lollipops, brisket, pulled brisket, chicken wings and hush puppies are delicious! Can't wait to go again and make up a different platter to try. Truly wonderful, highly recommend. Best comfort food I've had
N. F.
The best bbq
In Perth service great the food fantastic and value for money will be back.
A. W.
Best BBQ in town! We had such a great night! Friendly staff,amazing food. Will be back
A. M.
Great service - I wanted to change the protein in one of the set orders (pork rib to brisket) and they were happy to do so.
Big servings - Ordered a meal for 1 and it could easily feed 2!
Order extra cornbread with maple butter! You'll regret it if you don't - AMAZING.
i.
Loved it, food is delicious and in the plenty, service was fast and polite. Smokey brisket, chicken wings, pulled pork and beef, yum! Can't wait to go back again.
g. b.
Went for my traditional bday ribs , the service was good on a busy Saturday evening but they took care of us and the meals were great. Everything was well presented and the ribs were juicy and delicious.
It was extremely noisy in the venue , making it hard to have conversations but otherwise a good place to try a few new dishes and American favourites like cornbread 👍😁
D. S.
Friendly staff, nice layout. Some of the meats were nice but some were dry. Brisket had the most flavour but was dry, pulled pork was decent, burgers solid, wings good. Overall worth a visit but could be a 5 if the meats weren't served dry.
N. W.
Staff were friendly and attentive. Food came out promptly and the portion size was adequate.
Food though lacked a bit of flavour and the mac and cheese was extremely cheesy (to the point it got a little sickening to try finish it).
C. D.
I think cows are awesome animals I wish they weren't so tasty. Have eaten in numerous times, recently tried side door via deliveroo because lazy. Just as good and the staff took time to write a "have a nice night" on the boxes with smiley faces. Also the complimentary popcorn was very welcome. Best Mac and cheese.
B. B.
The staff here are always amazing and friendly. The brisket is my favourite, just melts in your mouth! Don't forget to save room for dessert, the banana cream pie is delicious!
C. F.
Great meal brisket was tender and juicy, poppers and chicken wings also good, lots of flavour. I will definitely going back.
J. T.
Was looking for something different found this little gem food was great
Food was American barbecue
J. R.
Really great service and food here. The owner seems really genuine and nice! He was happy to replace some food that we weren’t 100% with and he brought out the new plate personally and made sure everything was good. The beer and cocktails are very nice as well! Definitely can recommend for a little dinner date or an outing with friends 🙏🏻
C. G.
Absolutely delicious, will be going back. Maybe ask for an extra napkin if you get the wings though haha!

Tasty food, average service, overpriced beer, good music. No one explain the menu end up getting a lot of food despite asked if portion was ok for one person, I can’t think of a good reason to come back.

Finally made it out to Side Door Barbecue to celebrate a friend's birthday. The place was packed, the atmosphere was great, and the food was an experience of its own!
With staff expertly managing the hustle and bustle, we were able to approach any seemlingly available staff to add extra drink orders, or clear away a few empty dishes as we made room for more of Side Door's amazing menu.
The menu reminded me of an Americana-style steak house - portions were generous, flavours were immaculate and the meat was cooked to perfection. Our table was filled with dishes as we all made our way through the generous servings, and while we intended to keep left overs, the food was just too good!
Upon leaving we were also happy to find split-billing available, and our friend enjoyed her dessert on the house as a birthday courtesy. Thanks Side Door! 5 stars!
M. L.
Nice food, friendly staff. The brisket and beef ribs are amazing
N. R.
The service was okay and chicken wings were actually great! Sadly the coleslaw was watery and the brisket was completely dry, we ended up eating less than half of everything but they were happy for us to take it home
K. A.
Great place regularly get their single meals and burgers when I cbf cooking. The atmosphere looks good but I haven't dined in yet. Similar price to HJs burger and chips but with at least 4x the love. Give em go, the do a great feed for me.
D. A.
I have been here twice now. Once it was a random find and yesterday was a 2nd time. I had important clients to take out for a meal.
It was the best choice to bring them here.
Nice warm place with a good vibe. The portions were big and it was a really good value for money. When it came to bill it was at least $100 cheaper then what I thought it to be with all the food and drinks we ordered.
All of us really enjoyed our meals. Definitely a come back place and a recommendation that cannot disappoint.
D. B.
After trying several American style ribs and BBQ places around Perth, I can absolutely say the side door barbecue is the best I've had. The sauce isn't overpowering or too sweet like a lot of American places, and the servings are LARGE. Every dish taste different not retread of the same theme and we really enjoyed every dish.
E. O.
Food was really tasty, the size of the sides dishes were good. Great costumer service.
T.
Nice atmosphere, the service was average due to an hour weight for our drinks, we had almost finished our dinner before they arrived. The food had a great wide variety of meats and sides, but the meat was overly fatty and oily, more than comparative meals at similar style food venues in WA. I wouldn’t come back due to the above, and solid other specialty BBQ restaurants with better service and nicer tasting meat.
A. B.
Good BBQ, impressive cocktails. Love to go back one sunny afternoon and eat outside
D. K.
So good!! Delicious meat platters with great salads too, allowed separate billing, was quick service and also had a few decent beers on the list.
S. T.
Decided to take my friend here for dinner as she had never been before. The food was incredible, the cocktails were amazing and our waitress was so lovely and thoughtful.
She found out it was my friends birthday and surprised us with a slice of key lime pie which was absolutely amazing.
Would go back again just for that cake!
r. b.
Ordered a tray of meat for 7 guys, which came out on two trays. No one ordered more. Standouts were the long rib, and the pork belly. The brisket was dryish, and the short rib while tasty was about 40% fat. Too much fat. I had instant regret.
The place had a nice airy feel to it, and the staff were friendly and attentive.
A. T.
One of the best BBQs in Perth. Juicy brisket is to die for. Highly recommended.
A. T.
Amazing food and the service was on point. Couldn't rate this place high enough.
A. C.
Hi staff, we just ordered take away, the food was amazing, perfectly cooked and great flavours.
Just something to consider in regard to the "pork ribs", if you're serving pork belly on the bone (that's what I got delivered) you should probably write it on the menu.
I wouldn't mind paying more for real pork ribs as I know they are more expensive than the belly.
Cheers
M. D.
The food here is so damn good. We ranked our top 5 from the Austin Platter and they were as below.
5. Chicken wings
4. Small ribs
3. mac and cheese
2. Pork lollipops
1. Sausage
But everything was amazing! Great beers, cocktails, service. You name it, they're awesome at it. There's one lady who does her hair up in an olden days style and she has the most heartwarming service I've ever experienced! She calls you honey!
Tip Top, bloody love it.
S. N.
Lovely staff. Odd decor but feels roomy. The food was excellent.
Cocktails were my favourite.
G.
Pretty good portion sizes, super tender brisket, highly recommend. The Mac and cheese was a bit of a miss though.
M. C.
Yum-friggin-o. I struggle to find good bbq pork ribs, these were awesome. We ordered the giant platter with some extra sides, it was tasty as. Cornbread was good and I need to go back to try more cocktails!
p.
Fantastic meal, all meats were so delicious, but good grief there mac and cheese is amazing! Tried to replicate at home and nah, not even remotely close. Guess I'll just have to keep coming back!
J. K.
Awesome American style food, good atmosphere, great music!
C. M.
Always great food for a carnivore, can't fault them.
G.
We ordered the shared platter to share. The BBQ meats were delicious! Mac and cheese is cheesy and tasty!
P. L.
We had a great time here, food was delicious, drinks were on the mark and the service was pretty good. Friendly staff made the night go well too. The only downside also had a silver lining - the food did take a while to come out, however when it did come, it was all perfectly timed - a group of 9 ordering a mix of individual meals and different share platters and it all came out at the same time, perfectly prepared and presented.
Pricing is getting up there, but still good value for what you got - certainly not over the top - my partner and I had the $79 share platter for 2, with a $12 mac and cheese on the side, and we couldn't finish it..
We'll happily dine here again (after all, there's still so much to try)
T. E.
The brisket was pretty good. We had the Dallas (I think? The middle size platter for $70ish) platter and while it was ok, the incredibly sweet BBQ marinade just dominates the flavour. Way way way too sweet.
Staff were awesome though. Good service. Nice venue.
P. P.
Best Barbeque I've had in years. The macaroni and cheese must have been somebody's Memaw recipe. Creamy and delicious. When in Perth don't miss it.
R.
Absolutely delicious. Went here on a recommendation from someone at work, and was not disappointed. We had a couple of cocktails and a platter for two and only just managed to finish, but it was all so tasty we didn't want to leave any. The wait staff offered to box the rest up but we were going out after so had to reluctantly decline.
They have rolls of paper towels on the end of the table, that's how you know the ribs are good!!!
A. B.
The food was excellent as was the service. Affordable pricing and a decent variety on the menu. Will be definitely going again.
J. C.
My favorite place to eat in Perth. I recommend the pork ribs, brisket, pulled chicken and Mac n cheese.
H. P.
Best BBQ in Perth!
If you love meat you simply can't do better than Side Door!
Highly recommend the beef short ribs, pork belly bites, and brisket.
Fantastic vibe and friendly staff, and amazing cocktails!
Perfect for small gatherings or large groups as well - super fast service.
L. D.
The family and I came here last night for dinner, and it was a fantastic experience. We ordered the platter for 4 with extra Southern Wings and that was more than enough. The libation offerings are also very good, opt for a jug. Service was also very good, with constant water refills and continual check-ups. The hand towels provided are also very cool. This was our first time, but wont be our last.
A. M.
Was good, they were accommodating of my party of 9. We ordered 2 platters and it was more than enough for everyone.
S. B.
Yummy. A bit expenses but sure is tasty. The brisket is my favorite. Didn't like the pulled chicken not because of taste but the texture is too fine and sloppy. Staff are amazing. Probably the best service and friendliest staff in Perth. Gets very busy and is loud. Go here is you want delicious food in a vibrant atmosphere with great service.
J. W. F.
Totally satisfied to overflowing!! Fantastic service staff that we more than attentive in making sure we were happy, and that we were, highly recommend you get a taste!!
S. S.
Just short of the mark im afraid... Quality is good and overall value is fair but unfortunately the wieght per serve including around a 3rd in fat is not my idea of a fair serve...Smoked pork was lovely but the brisket was pretty flavourless with way too much fat. It didnt taste like it was smoked.. one of the few restaurants I have left still feelng hungry....
H.
Food was alright, but ambiance is lacking especially due to the absence of soft materials, resulting in a very noisy restaurant when slightly busy, which makes any kind of coherent conversation near impossible.
A. F.
From the second we walked in, the staff went above and beyond to ensure that we had a great experience, all with a warm, friendly demeanour. Our waitress brought us drink samples to ensure that we got exactly what we wanted. We had beef ribs, pulled pork, corn on the cob and mac&cheese. The meats and corn were all AMAZING. My partner and I were torn over the mac&cheese as I didn’t like it at all (I found it super fake cheese tasting-almost like a kraft single?) but he liked it. My sweet tea + rum was incredible too. The bill came to $84 for two people, too much food (didn’t finish the mac&cheese) and drinks, which I thought was a bloody steal. All in all, I’ll be returning and raving/ recommending in the meantime :) :) :)
S. T.
Fun tasty and casual.Couldnt move after dinner
A. M.
Great service, ordered the Dallas share plate with a side of Mac cheese, Mac cheese was very bland and hubby had the coleslaw.... he didn't think it was coleslaw.
Chicken wings, pork belly and corn bread was amazing!
N. M.
The food here is very good indeed. We dined here earlier tonight, and ordered a platter for two and added on a few side dishes, and that was more than enough. Cocktails were also very nice and beautifully presented. Service was very pleasant. Not too expensive as well! Will return soon.
J. B.
My partner and I came Monday night after hearing amazing things about this place from friends. It didn't disappoint to say the least. The brisket, pork belly lollipops, southern fried wings and pulled pork were among my favourites. Service by all staff was also very friendly. This place seems to be a winning formula. We'll be back for more!
R.
Best jalapeño poppers I’ve had. Tried the brisket, pork ribs, chilli cheese sausage, mac and cheese and coleslaw. All very good and in a relaxed setting.
A. T.
Tasty American Style Food, drinks are a bit pricey.
S. C. (.
Side Door Barbecue deserves a 5 star! Huge compliment to the customer service and food quality. You must come here if you truly want to experience the authentic American BBQ feast. Meat was tender and juicy, hush puppies was delicious and everything was perfectly cooked. However, make sure you come with an empty stomach so you can feast like a King!
J. K.
Fantastic tasting BBQ at affordable prices. We came on Monday night, and it was moderately busy but our food didn't take long to come out at all. A good selection of drinks as well. Service from all the staff was exceptional as we felt very well taken care of. Will be back for more soon.
S. D.
Beautiful restaurant in a great location. The food was good and plenty of options. The pulled pork was delicious however was drenched in BBQ sauce. The coleslaw and macaroni cheese was yummy. I would've liked to have burger options for dinner not just on the lunch menu. Staff were good and attentive.
M. L.
Yeah this place is good. I've tried a few menu items, and everything I've tried has been delicious.
The St Louis Cut is mental, and the Mac n cheese is off its head.
When you're seated you get some tasty bacon popcorn. It's a treat.
Getting seated has never been an issue for us as a couple, though you'll want to book for a group.
Great location in Mt Lawley.
It is a bit pricey so keep that in mind, but you pay good money for good food.
The service has always been really pleasant as well, which is a big plus.
Go forth and eat.
J. C.
Had an amazing meal here. Fried chicken, BBQ pork ribs and Mac n' cheese were authentic and delicious. The cornbread and hush puppies missed the mark, but that may be due to the difficulty in getting southern style cornmeal. Service was prompt and very friendly. The lovely staff even surprised us with a delicious and complimentary desert for my birthday! Good list of beers and wine to boot, definately worth a go.
A. A.
Good barbeque restaurant in the spirit of Frank's of Austin. Brisket is excellent. The St Louis style ribs are good. Found the corn bread with maple butter a bit too rich. Ask for burnt ends without the beans if you don't love the beans. The sauces especially the espresso BBQ sauce and the hot and spicy BBQ sauces are fab. The pulled pork and brisket are swell. The service bus outstanding. This is a nut free venue. The attention to detail around food allergies is outstanding.
J. T.
Look the food was great as it always is - there was a huge selection and everything there is a carnivore's dream. However we did book a table for 8pm and when we got there they told us the table wasn't ready yet. At 8:20pm they gave us the table. They were apologetic and gave the table a free round of Jalapeno Poppers - all in all it's a good feed and we'd be back. Staff very enthusiastic and accommodating.
T. T.
This place is great.. The 2 of us ordered the pork rib platter for 2... It was so generous it could have fed 4 people... The ribs, wings and pork belly were cooked to perfection. And I must say from the moment we walked in we were warmly greeted, even though it was a busy full house. Service from friendly staff was impeccable. Keep up the good work and see you again soon.
K.
My first time visiting a few years ago I was very impressed, but I went back last month for dinner and was thoroughly disappointed. The staff were not helpful and had no knowledge of the menu. Our food came out and the meat was cold. Wont be going back for a third try.
M.
Had a nightmare experience with MenuLog delivery and Side Door bbq contacted us, re made all of our food fresh and were so great about it. Side Door barbecue 5 stars!!! menu log 0 stars, and menulog owe side door bbq wastage too!
M. V.
So yum & you get free caramel popcorn and little tasters of their drinks
C. W.
Great food and excellent service. Definitely worth 5 stars. The menu has such a good variety and you can make your own platter if you don't like the set ones. This place was a gem find. Loved it.
A. S.
Well, if a photo could speak - just look at the photo I'm uploading with this review and rub it directly on your stomach.
Everything tastes as good as it looked. Sauces that were on the side were all amazing. The espresso BBQ sauce over the briskit was incredible. Only criticism would be chicken wings were a touch dry but still very tasty.
Staff were super friendly and made great recommendations.
Price was on point for quality of food that went into my belly.
6 out of 5 stars. Will be returning here without a doubt.
P. V.
The best American style barbeque in Perth and possibly Australia. Great service, amazing food and the drinks are fare too. Everything in the menu I've had is good to great. The brisket is a must try. The house made sauces are great. I usually hate all barbeque sauces but I couldn't get enough of the Side Door Barbeque sauce. The chilli is good too though. If go here everyday if I could afford it. The sides are not a waste of money like most other restaurants, same with the starters. I was too full to try the dessert, next time definitely
E. D.
Look if you like meat and men then basically this is the perfect place to go haha. My friend and I went there cos we love American food and it was the best especially the Beef Brisket, Pork Ribs and Jalapeno Poppers. As we sat enjoying our meat and a pint, it was literally amusing to watch so many groups of guys wandering in for their fair share of meat and beer!
N. P.
Great atmosphere and great food.
The meat platters are delicious and good value for money. The Mac and Cheese is simply amazing.
If you want a "meat fix", I definitely recommend this Side Door Barbecue restaurant.
D. P.
I've been coming here since it opened a few years ago and it is still my happy place. I always bring guests in from out of town to get them settled in to the Perth food scene. Brisket and jalapeno poppers are always a crowd pleaser. I am a big fan of the pork belly lollipops and also the smokey creamed corn is out of this world. There's also the beers, house made sauces and the caramel popcorn on arrival. So much love for this place - please don't change.
M. B.
Great deep fried wings, good brisket. Mac n cheese was ok. Service is quick and friendly. Drinks list is great!
M. C.
Will definitely be recommending this place to everyone. Service was amazing, food was amazing, could not fault anything. Our favourite was the brisket! Just want to also say thank you to the lady/host front of house for being so welcoming and having great customer service! So refreshing and reminds me very much of being in the America.
A. G.
A bit hit and miss. The brisket was so tender but the pulled brisket was very dry. The pulled pork was sensational as was the chicken wings. The lollipops were a disappointment. They were not tender and juicy but quite tough and dry. We were left alone when we really couldve done with another drink. No one came to check on us or how asked how our meal was. I would've given this rating in person but perhaps lunch patrons are not so coveted.
H. H.
Delicious meats and great beer list. Staff are top notch too. I think the sides could be better and the cheapo white bread they give out really let's down the quality of everything else on your plate.
M. J.
Wow how good is this place !
Fell in love with the pulled pork, beef and the brisket !
Absolute favorite was the corn bread !
Another new favorite for me :)
a. l.
The venue was open and enjoyable staff were friendly and helpful buuuuttt the only downside was the beef ribs were 90% fat and for $50 definitely could have done with a better meat fat ratio other than that everything else was too quality
J. K.
Called in on the way to the Glory Game with My Daughter, both of us are Coeliacs and the menu was excellent. The waitresses went out of their way to explain about the Fryers and the Cross contamination. The Pulled Pork and the Pulled Brisket were excellent and the Beetroot salad was Gorgeous. Highly recommend Side door BBQ
K. V.
My fav Perth Bbq. Loved the Mac and cheese and house made chilli cheese sausage. The beans with burnt ends could eat every single day! Highly recommended
N. I.
Visiting from USA, this is the best BBQ place I have been to in all of Australia. I go there regularly! Highly recommended. Had the beef brisket, pulled pork, corn bread, jalapenos poppers, and more. All have been good. They have multiple BBQ sauces and very friendly staff as well!
S. M.
Great smoked meats, big place, massive servings. Recommend the pint of Bloody Mary!
L. S.
Amazing BBQ meats, the best I've had in Perth. Great array of sides and drinks, and great flexibility with platters to cater for any party size. Make sure you try the espresso bbq sauce.
P. b.
Delicious variety of BBQ meats covered in amazing sauce which made my taste buds cry out for more.
B. T.
Tasty food, Friendly Service, Highly recommended for group of friends.
R. W.
Wow what a place. Don't even know where to start. Offer a nice selection of different BBQ meats. We (2pax) went for the Pulled Brisket, Beef Short Rib, Chilli & Cheese Sausage, Brisket and the Jalapeño Poppers as a starter. Main takeaway - too much, too delicious = food coma. Absolutely recommend this place and the to go for dish are the Beef Short Ribs for sure.
B. S.
Fantastic food and staff. We come here for family dinner to celebrate a birthday. Ordered three trays of various smoked meats to share and the chicken and pulled pork is some of the best in Perth. Try it folks 👍
W. L.
nice! dogs allowed at the outside tables. many interesting and yummy menu options, friendly and attentive service
Z. F.
Went here for dinner on a Friday night. Place was pumping and had great vibes. We got caramel maple popcorn on the house. The meat was out of
Control! So tender and tasty. Also really good value for money, would definitely come back
t. c.
Top notch feed, had the Dallas platter and everything was really well cooked and the flavours hit the spot.
Only point of criticism would be the hush puppies in that I personally would have preferred more salt in them, but they went really well with the chipotle mayo/sauce they had!
C. W.
The food here is always excellent, the service is very friendly and plenty of napkins are supplied which makes you a little more comfortable getting messy with the sauces. My favorite has to be the wings but the beef brisket is also excellent. Make sure to get a side of coleslaw!
M. Y. S.
I'm torn between three and four stars. Reasonably priced American BBQ, YES. Over flavoured : A touch. Option to make your own platter, definitely a plus.
Pork Lollipops : perfect texture and taste, but over-sauced. Mac and cheese: Decadent, definitely share it if you don't want to have a food baby of regret the next morning. Cornbread: Very dense and sweet. Almost a desert when paired with the ample slice of maple butter. Sticky chicken wings : Tasty but again it had so much sauce I could paint a wall with the bottom of the bowl.
L. M.
Brilliant food and service. Meat sweats for days!
Music was okay, they had it on repeat
Dessert menu wasn't inviting imo.
Cool little place tucked away off Beaufort, would recommend this place from you and a friend to party of 30.
A. L.
The best place for Texas Bbq we have found in Perth
A. G. U.
Wait staff were very friendly and competent. Food was good and sides are in large portions.
Only downside is the "hipster" customers.
Four stars instead of five due to a hipster friendly beer list that did not have one single drinkable beer.
M. L.
Omg! Where do i start!!! Best food weve ever eaten! We had the platter for 2 with fries and the ginger beer syrup drink. Couldnt fault it! The service was absolutely amazing! We got to taste some teas and syrup drinks for free! It honestly felt like we were at a bbq, best service! I took my partner for valentines day lunch and he left very happy! 😋😋😋 will definitely be back!
J. D.
They may have poured a little too much liquid smoke into the corn as that's all I could taste, maybe that's the American way. Apart from that everything was great. Good portions, we had the 4 person platter with 4 big eaters, could easily feed 5 or maybe 6 smaller eaters.
d. h.
Since Good Friday we have eaten here 3 times and we are going back next week. Despite being a huge ribs fan I haven't eaten pork ribs here yet as everything is so exceptionally delicious. We only ever order the share plates because everything on the platter is so damn good. I mean, the coleslaw is so good we order two serves for 4 people, the mac n cheese (which I would never order) is a must have, and Hush Puppies came as the most unexpected surprise.
Despite all the this, though, the staff provide a level of service virtually unseen in Perth. Well done guys.
B. H.
So good that we had already started eating out pork and beef ribs before taking the pic. Great, fast service too.
C. A.
Fun lunch out with three generations of family. Food great as was service.
B. C.
We have been to SD BBQ only once and recommended it to everyone who has asked about a good BBQ place in Perth. Even though it was super busy we were greeted by friendly helpful staff who made the ordering process easy, they took drinks orders and came back to get more drinks orders when we were just about done with the first round. They were attentive to our needs and accomodated additional people for our table as well. The food itself it incredible, and even though it's not 'cheap' it certainly filled our tummies. I don't mind paying more for quality when it's a big serving. The platter for 4 can feed 6 or 7 people, seriously!! We had 7 people, ordered the platter for 4 and platter for 2 and a couple of sides, there was heaps left over.
Highly recommended and please don't change anything!!
B. O. (. B. P.
This place is a meat eaters heaven.
The portion sizes are large so you may want to share. We shared (guy & girl) a beef ribs and ordered some side dishes as the volume of the meet is pretty thick.
They cater for group bookings, however ring ahead and book your seating for a larger table.
3. I. A.
The Key Lime pie was absolutely amazing. Such decadence, much flavour.
Wait staff was super diligent. In a time where so many restaurants wont even bring water to the table anymore, these guys were right on the ball.
Special mention goes to our waitress Chiara and the brilliant manager on shift, Gary. No disasters were had that night.
Q. K.
Great place for larger groups. The food is great for sharing and super tasty! The Mac and cheese, with the jalapenos poppers were a highlight alone with the pickled cucumbers and the brisket! Yum! Well be back 👍
M. J.
Lovely roast chicken and great atmosphere. We really enjoyed our night there Was a bit of a shame that the short ribs were so fatty - apart from that very good!
C. S.
Come here for brekkie nearly every Sunday. As per my previous review. They are still brilliant, the staff all have smiles on the faces, the serving sizes are beyond belief good. They do lots of gluten free/healthy options that taste good, but that ain't living. Get some smoked meat on your fork. A jug sized cocktail, and some jalapeno poppers that will blow your mind and 12 hours later will blow your bu.... Any way. Well deserving of 5 stars.
A. C.
A nice place to have food in a group. We had 3 families with toddlers and ordered the bbq plus sides. Most of it tasted good. They have high chairs and colouring pencils for kids. Recommend pork ribs.
N. C.
We decided to go given the great reviews online. It didn't disappoint at all. We were welcomed and quickly found a table. Asked for some recommendations to the friendly girl who help us with our orders. Water and nibbles always ready and the size and quality of the portion were great!!
D. K.
Four of us attended for Breakfast yesterday. This little hidden treasure was amazing. We received great service and food. The coffees were amazing also. Big thank you to Jett for the great table service.
U. S.
Absolute goodness! Best bbq so far in Perth. A must. Meat is tender and well cooked. Staff are friendly and the beer and wine list nicely paired. Bathrooms is clean.
A. T.
Best BBQ house in Perth period.
Food is always amazing, the staff are always very friendly (especially the front of house, she is amazing always making a special effort with everyone who walks in)
Id recommended trying the mac and cheese balls...... Delicious!
L. T.
Came here for lunch yesterday, good service and pulled pork and everything was great except the brisket we had was a bit dry which is a bit dissapointing since brisket would be the most popular cut at barbecue places
J. B.
The best bbq in Perth, period! We've tried similar places but nothing comes close to Side Door BBQ. Favourites are the beef rib, brisket, and jalapeno poppers. The portion sizes are also very generous. We are regulars and the staff always ensure we are looked after to the highest degree.
B. B.
Nice friendly service. Good sizes meals for the price. Actually tastes like proper American BBQ. The Mac & Cheese is one of the best I've ever tasted.
H. G.
Went on a Thursday night in a group of 4. The staff and customer service were excellent, as was the food. Very enjoyable. Only reason it misses the 5th Star is that we were overcharged $70 for food which is huge. This was of course refunded when we questioned it. However apparently it happens all the time. So even in you've had a few drinks, be sure to go over your bill in detail before you pay to avoid it happening. Otherwise was a great night and would happily go back.
L.
Holy wow... the brisket from these guys is amazingly tender. I was able to pull it apart with my fingers!
It's damned good and damned tasty.
The BBQ sauce they do is amazing as well, so smoky and spicy at the same time.
And then the chipotle mayo as well. Nothing I had from these guys was disappointing and
Damned awesome guys, keep it up!
K.
We dined here tonight and WOW just WOW!!
Amazing service, fantastic music, we had a booth and ordered the sdbshared platter for 2 with the St Louis pork ribs. We were given a complimentary flavoured popcorn and water as soon as we were seated and order taken straight after, with our food on our table in 15mins. We ordered way too much but the hubby wanted a hit of ribs.
This place delivers on quality and we are excited to say we will be back again. Keep up the great work @sidedoorbbq
C. D.
Food was excellent, build your own platter is the way to go. Probably just luck and didn't have a reservation but was seated immediately upon arrival, even though it was busy. The staff that served us were prompt, polite and overall pleasant! Will definitely be back to try other items on the menu.
J. C. Q.
First time here and all I can say it was an amazing experience. First of all the staff was very welcoming and they knew what they were doing! 5/5 for the front of the house, top notch service. The food was really good as well, my favourite was the beef short ribs! It was well priced as well! Definitely recommend Side Door to everyone!
N. P.
4 of us lads went in for a last minute dinner catchup on a sunday night and there was nothing to fault with our meal, drinks and service. American style bbq can be "touch and go" sometimes, but our 'platter for 4' was filling and tasty! Definitely the place to go when you are craving an authentic american bbq experience. Excellent venue setout, atmosphere, service and food! Keep up the great work!
n. r.
** GENUINE BBQ ** methods used and final product is delicious due to the attention to detail taken. Surroundings are comfortable and service was great reflecting same as we have experienced in U. S.
House drinks are great, and from time of ordering meal to table was quick. Friend recommended and really glad he did as it was as good as he said it was....
N. F.
That's some good bbq!! Brisket was AMAZING y'all!! Tasty hush puppies perfectly fried. Yummo!! Had the American lemonade but definitely getting mummas sweet tea next time.
b.
Parking in the area can be a bit iffy, but there is a bus stop within 100mtrs, so utilising public transport is the way to go, and let's face it, last time I was there I needed to walk of all that yummy meat afterwards. Corn bread is to die for. Meats are pretty good, what you'd expect for American BBQ style food. They also do home made traditional drinks, of which I recommend the y'all Americal lemonade, with some Hendrick's gin to tone down the lemon, with mint and cucumber. Very refreshing and, the Nana's sweet tea, a lovely sweet, peach flavour with a bit of pear. Will be coming back again for sure once my cholesterol levels come down.
C. W.
Amazing food, Dallas plater just blew our group away with flavours and size.
Highly recommended for any meat lover.
B. D. B.
Quality American-style Pit-Barbaque with a great smoke on all the high quality cuts they have. Seemingly pricey at first but the value for money is undeniable after your belly is full. Have been 3 times, will be back!
D.
Amazing restaurant. Came here for my birthday. Lovely sized plates of delicious meat, great cocktails that were not full of ice, extremely friendly service. 10/10, would eat here again.

A great place to bring the meat eaters in your family. Great value (they'll probably be plenty of leftovers to take home) and friendly service.
S. P.
Great food, generous servings for the price. Tasty Bloody Mary's.

Are really good BBQ joint in Perth. Beef ribs are the go here. But not for everyone, they are super fatty and rich in flavour. Platters are good also. I love this food but it is super sweet and salty.
T. H.
Good food and excellent service. Had dinner with a small group of friends on a quiet Wednesday night. Atmosphere was laid back and casual which was perfect. Staff friendly and attentive.
As good as the food was it just wasn't five stars.
M. W.
Wow 1st time going to this place with our family
For Boxing Day Lunch. Staff really friendly the shared platter was so awesome and yummy and the desseet was delicious. Would recommened to our family and friends this place.
A. R.
Discovered this little gem in Mount Lawley, and decided to give it a go tonight. The service was exceptional, as was the food, I only wish I’d starved myself before going, we got the share platter for 4 of which every item was beautiful. Also had a a couple of cocktails which were outstanding as well, highly recommend this place
N. O.
Always had good time , nice flavors - quite versatile, always left full. $$$
Toast bread is meh wish it was better bread - talk to mary st bakery
T. L.
The ribs. Are to die for. I don't think ive had pork ribs with the fat rendered, meat soft but firm and smokiness as perfect as i did on friday. But. Was really cut when I went back on Monday and got half the perfection I experienced. I hope that the next time I return it'll be just as good but I'm beginning to think the place has it's moments and slip-ups.
Never been a fan of the wings here and after awhile the food becomes very one-dimensional with the same bbq sauce with all the meats.
Beef ribs and pork ribs were perfect.
Pulled pork was just the right point between too dry and mush.
Brisket was hit and miss, but overall juiciness I'd give a passing mark!
Pork belly lollipops were perfectly glazed. Good softness but still firming enough to sink your teeth into
Overall great joint! Still a little bitter from my Monday visit and hope it isn't cause they're using leftover meats from the weekend.
K. P.
Wow!! This place has got so much going for it. Great food. Pleasant friendly staff & very good value. Pulled pork is so tasty and their sauces are delicious. Staff are friendly and attentive and service is fast. Only downside is that it can be difficult to get a table at busy times...so def need to book wherher ur a group or just a couple. Congrats to Side Door Barbecue for getting so much right. Thankyou
L. J.
Such a big feed, great food and friendly staff!
M. V.
Met up with a group of friends for lunch. Excellent service and a menu to suit even vegetarians, despite the name. Lovely casual, relaxed atmosphere and everyone at the table said their dishes were very tasty. Prices were very reasonable as well.
H. M.
Good everything, food, staff, drinks, the whole lot..
C. L. n. C.
Best mac n cheese and brisket! Our go-to for a US bbq fix and TGIF feast. Takes us back to the mid-west
K. B.
Food is OK, but a lot of elements need a lot of work.
We went for lunch with friends. Got the platter for 4. Was plenty of food. Pork belly lollipops, wings, mac n cheese and cornbread were good. Pulled pork was average, quite dry and very cold. Beef ribs were ok but had the top cap on with loads of fat which kind of ruined them. Brisket was under cooked, tough and had very little flavour. And one slice for 4 people?! Ok, it was a big slice, but really? The pork ribs were not smoked at all. Probably boiled and char grilled, quite tough and lacking any flavour other than char. The creamed corn was TERRIBLE! Very over-smokey and frankly inedible. Overall a bit disappointing for home BBQers, but still a decent feed that most would probably really enjoy.
A. R.
Got the platter for 2. Everything tasted the same. Overpowering bbq sauce flavour. Cool idea though. Meat was well cooked and will go again. Just a tip to the waitstaff..you don't have to tell us the white wine is on the left, the reds in the middle and the cocktails are on the right on the menu. We can see that. Just point out the favourites. Also for first time bbq eaters maybe explain what the random stuff was that was on the table, like the bucket (we assume was for bones/skewers) and the little water trough thing with white capsules. Gave an extra star because it was a kinda harsh review but will definitely give it another try.
C. O.
Two words: MEAT FEAST. 🍖🍗🍿
Not for those who are watching their waistlines. Flavourful American-style BBQ in a cool stripped back setting. Always best to go when you’re hungry. Desserts are full on but worth saving room for.
A. M.
I think there is room for improvement re: the food. But overall the experience is very good. Especially relative to a lot of other restaurants in Perth. Nice ambience and friendly staff.
M. E.
Best bbq in Perth. Proper smoke. Beef ribs are next level good. I've been here more than any other restaurant in Perth. And will visit again! Need more IPA Beer choices!
A. C.
Great place to go ...the service was great, drink was surpeb ... only thing the southern fried chicken coating wasn't crunchy it was soft and the brisket was very dry ...wasn't soft to bite into and dry on the mouth but the smoked tasted was spot on ...other than that ..will go again for sure
D. H.
You'll need heaps of tissues after your meal here. Not because you'll have BBQ sauce all over your hands and face, but because you'll need to wipe up the pieces of your mind after it's blown.
These guys don't mess around when it comes to BBQ.
P. H.
Great meal, wonderfully cooked.
Have a share platter and some sides you won't be disappointed.
D. C.
Came here with friends for an impromptu lunch and was more than pleasantly surprised. Greated by a very friendly manager and served by an equally friendly and helpful waitress. Food matched the service and the bottomless coffee is just the cherry on top.
Will certainly be returning
J. K.
Not bad. Food wasn't bad, although not a huge variety in flavor across both the platter for one and the platter for two. Noisy and fairly crowded, but not prohibitively so. Very friendly, attentive and efficient staff, cool vibe. Not a long wait on food.
T. W.
Absolutely amazing food as always. The sweet tea was epic and our server, Jefferson, was the best!
T. B.
I went a number of years ago and thought it was average - but went again with my work colleagues last week and it was awesome. The food was awesome and such much flavour and taste.
Will be back soon.
D. T.
As a Texan, some of the best BBQ I’ve had in Perth. The brisket, cornbread and espresso bbq sauce were spot on and reminded me of home. The beef based BBQ was by far my favourite as that is why we do in Texas. Will certainly go back.
W. S.
I remember when we went to this place. The booking somehow got stuffed up and fixed it all up without blaming anyone for the mistake. This alone was memorable because of the way they went the extra mile to accommodate us. The food was delicious and the service was great. Well done considering how busy it was.
H.
Pork was great, super tasty and well priced.
S.
Food was great, venue was spaced and quiet enough that it wasn't overwhelming like Old Faithful on a Friday. Unfortunately the pork ribs here are not well cooked and are not in a rack. Everything else was excellent.
K. H.
Our meal on Christmas eve was of good quality as was the service, however I suspect they are using a flavor enhancing product somthing like #liquid smoke on some meats, probably the brisket, this product has a lot of highly alergenic ingredients incl msg preservatives etc, there are various versions of it. Our daughter came out in sweats within 30min of eating and had to leave in a hurry ....this happened on their previous visit but she put it down to her personal state at the time,
Take care if you have alergies.
Keith and Linda
J. H.
Enjoyed an excellent meal with a selection from their menu. We all enjoyed the food and stuffed ourselves a little too much, portions are reasonable. Friendly staff, good beer selection. Kid friendly.
M. N.
Absolutely love this place. It wasn't the first American style BBQ in Perth, but it is certainly the best. Service is paramount to these people and the food is spectacular. You will not be disappointed.
J. R.
Great cocktails and food, will deffs be back
F. W.
Side Door BBQ was brilliant a few months ago. Now it feels like they're rushing around and can't handle as many people as they're bringing in. That being said, the food is brilliant. Exceptional value for money.
A. N. (.
Delicious food, generous servings, nice atmosphere. Will definitely be going back!
S. G.
Love the service and the food. You can order enough for one or ten really easily. Everything was great and reheated so well the day after
M. W.
Fantastic food, awesome selection of drinks, great atmosphere!
H. K.
Always a great place to take a large group for lots of food. Always experienced great service from the staff. Gluten free options available. Probably best not to invite your vegan friends...
H. M.
Very good services was there with my Daughter and Son they really enjoyed. They want to come back...
T. T.
Delicious food! Staff were so helpful & took time to explain the food etc & recommendations. We’ve been looking for good corn bread since America & it did not disappoint here!
C. B.
I think we had an out of body experience of sacred proportions. And by the way, big props for the portions. Let's start with the southern fried chicken wings with homemade side sauce which the chef creates lovingly over a 24 hour period. The sauce was a rich in colour and sent our mouths somewhere else. Mouthgasmic! We dipped incessantly. We thought this was the sacred moment of the decade until the pulled chicken and slaw burgers arrived with homemade chips and an assortment of fresh pickled veg on the side. Well...the smokey flavour of the pulled chicken caused much eye fluttering and gasps of disbelief from us both! Literally shaking our heads at all the incredible flavours we were tasting. Three sauces were placed on our table, house bbq, espresso bbq and the murderously delicious, Badass! All three were a cacophony of flavour, heaven!
To top all off out from the moment we walked in the door we were greeeted with the most friendly genuine staff service. From our waitress to extraordinary Mangeress on duty today. She rocks! Give that woman a raise!!
Thank you so much. We will be back with all our friends! ❤️
M.
Absolutely love this place that much, when one bloke was about to leave because of the prices I told him to reconsider as the food is off the chain
t. h.
Fantastic bbq place. Susan runs a great operation. American style (excellent)customer service. Bottomless coffee for breakfast! Meats are so tender, and taste delicious. Collard greens, baked beans, coleslaw and mac & cheese are all authentic and tasty.
Key Lime pie is to live for.
* For those who know their bbq, this is wet bbq, like in St Louis or Memphis, not dry smoked bbq, like in Texas.
(I am about to lose my taste, due to radioactive iodine for cancer. The last thing I wanted to eat, while I can taste, was Side Door bbq.)
V. P.
If you're looking for a late night snack this is the place to go to.
I called in at 22:30 they were super accomodating and had a table set up when for us before we arrived at 22:45.
The wait time was minute and the staff were extremely friendly!
All this on a weekday night too!
And they're still just as friendly!
L. L.
Dined here tonite 21/6/17 ir was quite busy around 7pm. We had super duper awesome service. We asked to move by window. Not a problem at all. Staff super friendly and accomodating. Party of 5 we orderd the shared plate for 4 and sliders. Holy moly huge and delicous meal fit for Kings........it was a celebration and team came out with our cake and even piped up with the birthday song. Thanks so much for the fab service and the delish dinner. Bellies are full of home to jammies and slippers
N. P.
It was a great find we were just randomly walking around and ended up followed our nose. We had the platter for 2 which was to die for it was soo good we tried eating all but ended up taking a doggie bag. Very good loved it will return when in perth.
A.
Slightly out of the way place but really great place. Food is southern bbq style and they serve breakfast all day too with bottomless coffee. Staff are very nice and willing to please.
M. F. S.
This has got to be the best American Style BBQ joint in Perth. Teneesee down under. I have crown the Chef the BBC king of Perth. As If the mouth watering ribs,corn is a special home style sauce and all the other food were not enough to make you just wanna scream "I can't deal",top that with the excellent customer service from the most friendly wait staff. I have found my regular. If you looking for the best BBC joint in Perth ,large portions with the best customer service,come to the Side Door BBC in Mt. Lawley.
L. W.
An excellent venue for all ages, tasty bbq meats and good drinks to be had! There are a few vegetarian options also!
C. C.
Most Excellent platter for 4 reasonably priced at 79$ If I could make barbeque chicken wings like this.....Got to try this cuisine! BEST BLOODY MARYS IN THE LOCAL UNIVERSE!!
J. W.
Great service and atmosphere. Staff made sure we were well taken care of and even went the extra mile. Food was decent with some of the meat being a little dry.
a. r.
Great pork ribs. And that's coming from a big, fat, Midwestern American. The "Y'all American cocktails" menu was a little much, but forgiven for having some Dynamite smoked meats.
A. B.
The cornbread with the maple 🍁 butter is amazing. Been there a few times and every time the food is delicious 🤤 and the staff are friendly.
J. D.
Fantastic BBQ. Low and slow! Just the way it should be.
The pork ribs were soft a delicious and the southern fried wings were a hit with my son.
I'll be back.
T. B.
Great food, yank style ribs and meats, nice atmosphere and we had a fantastic girl looking after us. Better value than T Romas.
My only gripe was the amount of Hipsters in this place, lol, why wear brimmed hats 9 o'clock at nite, cool are we, amusing to watch.
Def worth a visit if yr a carnivore.
H. M.
Food was amazing. Definitely no shortage on food as we had to get a doggy bag. Friendly staff, not a long wait for food. Plenty to choose. from. Only go if you're hungry.
R. D.
Good food but a little flat footed on their management of families with children.
J. M.
Large servings. Beef ribs could have been a bit more tender. The eggplant was was good. I want to go back. Pity I live in brisbane.
J. Y. L.
The food was amazing. Had the brisket, fried chicken wings, mac n cheese bombs, collared greens and cornbread loaf. Everything was amazing.
W. B.
We had the player for 4. The meat was delicious
a. e.
Outstanding service! And the food is just fabulous!! Became a favourite. Brisket, corn bread, collard greens with ham hock, pulled pork. Win
D. C.
We had the big burger and the pulled pork and slaw burger. Both were excelent there house soft drinks were to sweet for me. Excellent service a plesant old building atmosphere
A. K.
Good BBQ food at affordable prices🙂
C.
The service alone makes Side Door Barbecue worth the visit. Quite possibly the best brisket I have ever tasted. Great selection of WA beers on the menu.
A. H.
A little disappointing, this time round it was a little lacklustre service and my dessert came after everyone else had finished theirs. Meats were good but let down by the service.
S. B.
Loved the food, atmosphere and customer service was all outstanding. Can’t wait to go back!!
G. L.
Loved all the food,everyone enjoyed all the meals as we had the platter for 4,We could not finish it was great. Also had a great selection of local beers.
E. O.
Tried the St Louis cut pork ribs and were a amazing!!! Jalapenos poppers are not for the faint hearted. Can't wait to go back and try the brisket.
R. M.
Had a custom platter of ribs, fried wings, pulled pork, fries and jalapeno poppers which was awesome. Loved the atmosphere & service..food was yum!
b. h.
So good. Food, service and drink selection spot on. If anything the coleslaw was too acidic, but that is splitting hairs. Would very much recommend
K. W.
Finger licking good!! Smoky, tender, flavoursome slabs of protein with tasty sides. The beetroot & feta salad was a delicious fresh alternative. Good smoky flavours, sticky tasty glazes/sauces and mahoosive portions! Beware there’s a lot of food!
Note to coeliacs: Wilde gluten free beer is readily available, the key lime pie and banana cream pies are both gluten free!! Most of the dishes are GF and you can get a dietary breakdown of what’s in each dish. 😁👍 Go visite and enjoy!
C.
Good bbq food, good portion sizes at reasonable prices. Wait staff were excellent, near instant refills on water and cleaned the table fast. Time for a nap I think.
C. B.
Carnivores paradise. Came here for lunch one weekend. Incredibly friendly staff who were happy to help this vegetarian out.
b. j.
Epic food i mean epic . Great staff only problem us the chairs are not comfortable. My self and my partner left with very painful backs
B. M.
Really good food at affordable prices! One of my favourite dishes is the mac n cheese.. It's SO cheesy! The smoked meats are excellent too
D. W.
Brisket was tasty, chicken wings were awesome, sthn fried chicken salad bit dry
C. G.
Great staff.. Love the Share plate.. The Bacon bloody Mary's are fab.. They even split the bill.
T. P. O.
Been there twice and dying to get back again. Every meat lovers dream! Friendly staff and really good menu. Portion sizes are huge also. Highly recommend.
S. A.
Beef ribs were excellent! This is a great spot to visit if you want an authentic taste of the South experience, really enjoyed it.
W. R.
Food was absolutely beautiful and the service was positively wonderful. Best American BBQ I've found outside the US. Source: Am American.
A. S.
I can't praise this place enough. The staff were extremely attentive and explained the menu perfectly. The atmosphere was calm but lively and the food was extraordinary.
F. R.
The BBQ is to die for. The brisket comes with a beautiful visible smoke ring. Flavour is off the charts and macaroni cheese is a perfect side. This has become a mainstay for my family.
B. G.
Probably the best BBQ place in Perth right now. Friendly staff, great food and good beer selection.
The BEST Mac & Cheese available anywhere.
G. M.
Best barbecue in Perth. Don't be fooled, their BBQ selection for 2 is huge and is better for sharing between 4 (maybe add an extra side dish).
D. D. C.
Great place to get a range of slow cooked Texan BBQ items and side dishes with friendly and efficient service. Lovely outdoor area, but book early to avoid disappointment.
D. P.
Wow. Service was fabulous and the food ... We'll where do i even start? Scumdiddlyumptious y'all. BBQ so good, make you wanna slap yo mama!!
P. B.
Fantastic food. Generous servings as well. A carnivore's dream, the meat is so tender and brilliantly flavoured. Can't recommend highly enough
M. L. B.
Delayed feedback (Sunday lunch two weeks ago) was still quite full even though we were what I would have thought late for lunch service,
Extensive meat options, probably overordered to try more of the items,
Ended up with sooo much meat it made it hard to judge value of what would have been reasonable portion although ended up spending $40pp Perth had ruined my sense of value...
St Louis ribs was meatiest ribs I have ever had, but very different cut,
Table sauces were very nice
St louis ribs and pork belly popsicles had good flavour but tenderness wasn't spectacular.
Left stuffed full of meat,
was still full at dinner time
Was tasty
C. F.
Absolutely amazing barbeque. Full american experience for a great price. Would definantly recommend the Dallas plate & the pork ribs!
M. T.
Okay-ish food. Decent brisket serving.
Small swrving of chicken. Not the cleanest. Paid parking.
Y. S.
Awesome place, great service reasonably priced food which is fantastic. I love the menu and the vibe of this venue. Definitely recommend it. Casual dress......
B. W.
Ordered through menulog so only takeaway. Food was yum, beef ribs are quite fatty though.
S.
Yummy bbq style eatery, good for groups. Great deserts and cocktails. Service alright. Prices good.
R. D.
Left a 1 star review earlier after been double charged and my attempts to get my money back had failed...
The issue was eventually resolved after the owner stepped in who was very kind to deal with and I feel its only fair to share this aswel incase anyone sees that 1 star review (I cant edit it). Cheers
A. C.
Always a pleasure coming here. Out door seating that is dog friendly and even a water bowl brought out side for the pup. Try the brisket!
D. M.
Better value for money than their competition. Food was great. Service was a little slow considering it was quiet when we went, but the staff were very nice.
P. C.
Great food and really friendly people
b. s.
Sides are tasty but I could barely taste the meat. All the sauces used on everything just was over sweet and completely masked the taste of meat. Overpriced and over hyped in my opinion
M. F.
The best barbecue in Perth.
F. k.
Wow the food is so delicious n the barbaque ribs well done
N. C.
great food and atmosphere, can recommend the chicken burger
J. C.
Amazing personal assistance with selecting perfect dishes to take away for a large group. Delicious food, perfect feast! Can’t recommend highly enough,
Thank you!!!
D. B.
Fantastic food. 4 person platter had so much we took some home for next day. Meat just melts in your mouth.
N. C.
Great funky place. Fab menu. Staff were wonderful and very friendly. Love the vibe. Will be back soon.
B. M. (. M.
Generous serving of ribs. Did cater prior to closing kitchen, however I did find the service a bit blunt. Otherwise a good restaurant in a modern environment.
D. G.
Pork belly lollies, and brisket were great. Mac and cheese is VERY cheesy. The "hush puppies" were unique and something outstanding.
J. S.
Such a cool restaurant! Everything on the menu is amazing and the service is awesome. I love the Mom&pop vibe the place has.
J. C.
Service was fantastic and the food was incredible. I haven't had such amazing cornbread in a long time, and the servings are plentiful.
D. L.
Best mac n cheese I've ever tried! Ordered the platter for 4. Probably the best meal I've had in Perth. Would recommend this place!
D. R.
Our waitress was fantastic, the food delightful; I recommend the southern fried chicken and good selection of drinks. Reasonably priced.
E. B.
Enjoyed the brisket immensely. One of the other meat dishes washed a little dry. Nice outdoor seating area.
A. A.
Great American style BBQ joint, friendly staff, very accommodating. 10/10 would smash a platter again
J. T.
Service was great, the pulled pork was delicious but the place was a bit grotty.
B. T.
If I ever have a craving for American style BBQ, I immediately think of side door BBQ. Can recommend the punch. So good!
L. O.
Fantastic service and food. Every body should go, you will not be disappointed. The staff are so friendly and helpful.
D. R.
Randomly stumbled in tonight looking for dinner and oh my. Most delicious food we've had going out in a long time.
Cant wait to come back with some friends!
R. H.
Been here a few times now and the BBQ is just amazing! Brisket, Pulled Pork, BBQ beans and the Pork Belly Lollypops are a must!
S. o.
Excellent BBQ 👍.. unfortunately. Desserts were a big let down otherwise would have been 5 stars... Sorry
D. S.
The most amazing BBQ brisket. I love the complimentary caramel popcorn teaser! Arrive hungry!
J. V.
Good food - large servings - good service. Definitely will go there again and recommend to all those that love meat
D. w.
Ribs were chewy and tasted like liquid smoke. The brisket was very nice though. Sides were delicious
D. M.
Amazing food.
Service is fast, friendly
A. F.
Great quality food, professional staf, and loved the interior design. Food is on the pricy side, but oberall worth it.
A. S.
If you love soft and juicy pork bbq then you should try there. I found the food so tasty and with the amount of money you spend, they give you a lot of food.
N. L.
Love this restaurant. Great location. Such amazing food. The maître d' is so lovely and super helpful in selecting what to eat/share.
C. M. G.
Just wow! Amazing tasty food.
J.
Fantastic food, friendly staff. Had a share plate for four and had tonnes of leftovers. Will visit again.
M. D.
Great service and tasty food. Very fast service for the amount of customers. Only critisicm would be quite noisy and hard to hear conversations at the table
M. K.
Tasty pork ribs and roast beef. Cornbread is delicious
Good service
D. B.
+Beef ribs were very tender and tasty
+Pulled pork was good too
- pork ribs were not good
- their sauses were not to my taste
A. L.
So much meat! Shared the platter for 4 and was super full. The staff were very friendly and funny. Loved it.
M. R.
Hit and miss. Juicy and flavor full one night, dry and tasteless another night.
K. B.
Great food, failed getting 5* as service was really slow and got slower as the evening progressed...
M. C.
Amazing American style BBQ. Make sure you are hungry as the portions are generous! The ribs, wings and brisket are fantastic!
J. W.
Food and variety was nice but a good deal of the meat was fat that had to be removed. Cocktails were not worth the money.
R. W.
Just had the meal there and is really unforgettable. Highly recommended.
R. G.
The customer service and food were absolutely fantastic! Great experience from start to end! Highly recommend!
C. B.
Food is always a amazing we always order too much (very generous portions) and take some home for lunch the day after!
j. f.
AMAZING! ...been there twice and planning a 3rd trip, ...you really have to try it for yourself.... i am quite sure you are all reading up on everybody's take of the restaurant...forget the reviews...go on and try it for yourself...it's that damn good...so good that we begged to be seated outside on a cold damp night because i forgot to book....yes the food was that good that we were going to tolerate the conditions....the price...people there is a menu with the prices written in there in numerical characters..you can't read numbers?.....stop being cheap $40 pp for all that food.... but you're willing to spend $40 dollars on a 25--300gm steak with a small scoop of mash and a tablespoon of gravy?... come on...don't be a dummy...you work hard for that money you deserve better....i don't get all the crying about how expensive it is...it's not expensive...and if you're complaining about the "taste", "flavour" ...admit it...you just don't have a pallet ...you're the kind of person that thinks Hungry Jacks is gourmet ...stop being a pretentious idiot and start living life positively and happy....then you won't be so miserable all the time,...me on the other hand...i'm very happy ...it's about time Perth has a real genuine BBQ/Steakhouse they can call their own...I Love You SD BBQ ...I Love You with all my heart.
Sincerely,
~ Jasper
